Beyonce on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition?

Beyonce Knowles

Sports Illustrated, in their infinite wisdom, chose Beyonce to preside on the cover of their famous swimsuit edition. You heard me. The singer. . On the cover of SI’s swimsuit edition. They went so far as to deem it the music edition. Right about here, I could go on and on about how this cheapens SI:SE (I’m used to the older, much classier masturbatory material), but I won’t. Instead, I want to quote this little gem from a lovely person on ONTD.

Ok, so last night in pilates class, a girl who works for Sports Illustrated let the cat out of the bag- is this year’s cover model. AND it took over 5 hours to airbrush the cover. Hehe. (Edit: The reason? “Cottage cheese”. That is what she said!)

Ha ha. The joke’s on you Sports Illustrated. I didn’t like the uncontrollable sobbing that comes after an orgasm anyway.

    I CAN NOT BELIEVE THEY CHOSE THIS BROAD TO DO THIS, BEYONCE IS VERY DESPARATE TO OUTSHINE JENNIFER HUDSON BECAUSE JENNIFER IS ON THE VOGUE MAGAZINE AND EVERYONE KNOWS THAT VOGUE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SPORTS ILLUSTRATION. I HAVE ALWAYS LOOKED AT SPORTS ILLUSTRATION AS BEING LIKE PLAYBOY. VOGUE HAS NEVER ASKED BEYONCE TO BE ON THEIR COVER AND I HEARD THAT BEYONCE GOT UPSET AFTER FINDING OUT THAT JENNIFER WAS ASKED TO BE ON THE COVER. BEYONCE IS UNEDUCATED, JEALOUS, AND DESPARATE FOR ATTENTION. I HOPE THAT SHE GOES AWAY AND NEVER COME BACK. TOO MUCH PUCLICITY IS NOT GOOD MS. KNOWLS AND TRYING TO OUTSHINE SOMEONE IS NOT GOOD. JENNIFER BLOW CIRCLES AROUND YOUR LUNGS!!! MATTHEW KNOWLES STOP PIMPING YOUR DAUGHTER TO HELP MAKE YOUR OWN POCKETS FATTER!!!

    Wow!! Those were very harsh words. I am not sure if she was jealous of Jennifer but I think she did a great job doing SI. I think America is too fascinated by what celebrities do. Fortunately for me, Beyonce doing a good job does not ruin my day it motivates me to do my best as well. Kudos girl!!!!

    there is nothing wrong with beyonce posing in a sports illustrated magazine, she is sexy and i know she takes good care of her body….and she’ve done a great job as a SI model……

    Leave B’ alone! Stop hating on her because she is successful and making her mark in various forums of the entertainment business. Why can’t you just be happy for her? And, if that is too hard for you then just keep your hate to yourself. Nobody is perfect least of all the negative @ss Mofos who write and say such ignorant crap like that. Bottom line: You can’t do what she does. Furthermore she has no reason to feel jealous of Jennifer Hudson. They both did a wonderful job. I don’t dig Vogue like that. B’ has been on multiple covers, and wil continue to shine and stack her chedda and at the end of the day thats all that matter because, ” in this life one thing counts, in the bank large amounts. ”

    Do U B!!!!!!

    Damn this site is hating on BEY extremely bad. I bet its someone black who writes this bull****. Why? seriously why would you wanna drag a successful black person through the gutter when its hard enough for us already? its bad enough “The Man” is paying you to do this and you like a fool gonna do exactly what they say. Aint nobody trying to outshine no Jennifer Hudson either BEY started doing thisngs like this a long time ago way before anybody knew who “j-hud” was and when she came on american idol everyone forgot bout her and most likely will again. beyonce supports jennifer and all her accomplishments and jennifer said it herself so. they need to shut this wack site down its has way too much negative things to say. man why would you do this to someone? i just dont understand. If the joke is on anyone its a YOU bro!!!

  • missthang

    wow beyonce should know for all the money she hords another must get poor she is taking from others mouths

    How the hell is johnny’s comment harsh. Its the Truth. And thats exactly how it was told to the people (us). Jennifer Hudson covers vogue and beyonce follows up by doing si. U guys act like u dont know beyonce is competitive. Its ok to be that way. We should all want to do our absolute best in whatever we choose to be. But doing it with the attitude of Im better than u usually makes u fall harder and not want 2 get up because there is always a lesson to learn when u think u can do it all its moreso on how u present your self in it(meaning stop being a bitch and trying to ruin others dreams like has been done before). y would an established artist like beyonce have to compete with jennifer?u know what Im saying? Ms. Im already a star, I have 9 grammy’s and so on.. But I’ll leave that alone.Im not here 2 bash her. Because there has to be a certain amount of humblesness in u especailly in a business where u r not the only 1 who is talented. Now Jennifer being on the Vogue mag cover looking sophisticated and beyonce being on a sex symbol mag, Uh!! u do the work. I mean come on. Now u can never tell me beyonce doesnt use her looks to get credit above other artist. She once stated that she wants people to reconize her for her talent and not her looks, but then she pulls a stunt like this. This in no way makes jennifer look bad, but it does make beyonces greed and ambition to out shine every female entertainer obvious. Now do I sound like a hater? let me help u out. NO.
