I think he meant if he hadn't have been dropped, would he have been in SI?

He would of been an interesting choice for the magazine to say the least right El KeK?

I see they've emptied out their instagram page at this point. I notice it now say "Opening Eyes • Speaking Truths • Changing Minds" . Cause that what people want in a swimsuit issue. Not supermodels in amazing places taking iconic photos.

I'm going to guess Leyna has a cover. Tyra said history will be made. She's attractive enough. And I'm sure they think she'll open eyes and change minds. Megan Thee Stallion probably has to have one. I assume the Post story didn't come out of nowhere.

I miss being excited about a new issue. But I'm old school.

Yeah Issue release night used to be like Christmas for me and @ILUVAdrianaLima and playing detective the whole year leading up trying to figure out the models, photographers and locations.

i saw Lais post about S.I. Coming out and had forgotten all about this years issue. Big sadge

I can see MJ doing her own thing too like most photographers are doing that now or plan to start an online mag or patreon.

Yeah, SI and VS used to be the best times for BZ all year. For a long time I had always considered them to be like institutions; remaining there for the foreseeable future. I would never have foreseen how they quickly they would self-destruct, and go so far as "erase" their own extensive history... like a woman executing a break-up..

Model - Kelsey Merritt

Location - Hollywood Florida

Photographer - Ben Watts

Initial thoughts - Nice location, different then what we normally see. A couple of decent pictures which actually resemble a bit of a fashion editorial over SI Swimsuit. GF can't model to save her life (most of the time)... Solid 6.5/10. Kelsey IMHO has looked better in past year.
