Tyra Banks Covers Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2019 Issue, Back in 1997  Tyra Banks was the first Black woman to nab a solo Sports Illustrated cover. Twenty-two years later, she’s back and looking better than ever.

Landing one of three Sports Illustrated Swimsuit covers released by the magazine today, the supermodel says “I never thought it would be possible to be 45 years old and on the cover of this magazine again.”

TYRA! TYRA! TYRA!
