Kate Upton is the newest cover for the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue.
The 19 year old model wears a very tiny red-and-brown, sparkle-covered string bikini for the magazine cover and is heavily photoshopped.
Last year, when Irina Shayk was on the cover, Upton was chosen as rookie of the year.
