Supermodel Kate Upton made to the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit for the third time. And in keeping with the number 3, for the first time in its history, SI released three national covers.

The theme of this year's edition is diversity, with the tagline: "Every body, Every age, Every beautiful."
