Beyonce Named Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Covergirl

In a recent AP news release, Beyonce has claimed the coveted covergirl slot of this year’s Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.

“The Dreamgirl As You’ve Never Seen Her,” is the headline that was chosen to accompany the cover shot. There’s also a highly-anticipated photo spread inside of the magazine.

Beyonce posed on a Florida beach in a yellow-and-pink bikini designed by House of Dereon, the fashion label she started with her mother, Tina Knowles.

According to the recent AP report, the 2007 SI swimsuit edition continues with a music theme inside, featuring barely-covered models posing with the likes of: Kanye West, Aerosmith, Kenny Chesney, Gnarls Barkley and Panic! At the Disco.

Meanwhile, this prestigious honor hopefully will take some of the bite out of being passed up for Dreamgirls co-star, Jennifer Hudson, as the first black singer to grace the cover of Vogue.
