She is no stranger to making history. In 2017 she became the first trans woman to appear on the cover of Vogue Paris. Two years later, she was the first openly transgender model to be hired by Victoria's Secret. Now in 2020, 23-year-old Valentina Sampaio continues to break barriers in the modeling industry by becoming the first transgender woman to be featured in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.
Sports Illustrated has become a respected brand in the modeling world. Its swimsuit issue has featured some of the industry's most successful names, since launching 56 years ago. Sampaio is joining the elite ranks alongside stars like Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks.
Bye bye SI
Breaking down barriers one day at a time! 👏👏 Well done men
Ewwwwwwww
She is beautiful !
Gorgeous!!👏🏻💜👏🏻
Wonder what will stick out more, her nipples or pecker!! 🤔😉
I wouldn’t have known
Disgusting!
...and there go the sales, and they’ll wonder why...
Cool. She’s beautiful. Why isn’t there a Speedo edition?
You buy it to wank off the the pics. She/he looks hot. FUCK IT! THE ROMANS DID IT.
Looks like The Bieb with a wig on.
Didn’t even know that mag still existed
Anyone who claims to be marginalized will now be considered more qualified for any job, post or position.
Sometimes it's fun to pretend....
BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT
Couldn't care less as long as they don't try pretending he is a woman Beyond that to each their own
he will top himself soon.
Hey no need for women or white skin anymore! Down with them yay!
World is changing. Getting more acceptance is good we are who we are. Been honest to ourselves sometimes is hard
U probably make a lot of females uncomfortable....an a lot of males hate them selves...
Who?
Gosh she's pretty. Go Girl!
Everyone who calls this guy she has absolutely no respect for women. Women are special, guys pretending to be are not, just in need of help for gender dysphoria.
I see a man. Gross.
Congratulations! May she inspire many more.
Stopped buying, and paying attention to SI_Swimsuit when they put ugly fat girls on their front cover.
Never thought Sports Illustrated would use chicks with d*cks their swimsuit issue.
queen 👑
Why do you keep re posting the same thing 15x a day? Starting to act like Scheer?
A guy with Botox lips...heavy eyebrows are part of your DNA...
Wouldn’t you love to be in the meeting in which this decision was made just so you could say, guys we are a magazine in which the overwhelming amount of our subscribers are heterosexual males. Hello
Hurray!!!!! Let's all celebrate this encouragement of mental illness.
She’s a very beautiful woman 👍👍
Yes cause beer drinking sports watching guys don’t care that it has a dick under that bathing suit. Right!! KAGA MAGA2020
Congratulations
Spoiler alert sales will down this year!!
Beautiful person.
Oh boy!
I want a magazine that has males modeling tiny bathing suits.
Goodbye family unit
And they wonder why the costs of dealing with mental health are going.
That’s awesome!!!!!!!!! The world is in the right direction!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So awesome! She is beautiful ❤️
🤦♀️
🤮
Sports illustrated just took a dip worse than sports net after firing cherry hahah
Instantly unsubscribe to this shit lol
All these negative comments are just sickening. This is a positive and important outcome.. y’all wouldn’t have even known if trans wasn’t in the title. Stop policing other people’s lives and worry about your own internalized phobias that make you a shitty human. Cheers
The ones with angry comments spanked first and read the article after.
🤢
So a Man took a position that was always a Woman's? Everyone is OK with this? So a man is better at this job than a woman.
Wow
🤢
Somebody please report sales & magazine distribution stats for SI. Would be really interesting to see how this plays out
Predicting right now SI's swimsuit issue will die a cruel death. Nothing against trans people at all but who wants to wonder if they're being Rickrolled when looking at a picture of a model?
So is she attracted to males or females ?
Way to NOT hit your target consumers.
What happened to cries of sexism that progressives and screamed for decades about these photos? Hypothetical beyond belief.
Yuck🤮
Twigs and berries , no thanks.
There goes Sports Illustrated. Who wants 'chicks with dicks?'
It is a man surgically altered to appear as a woman. At least the headline is correct.
Women have had to fight against a male dominated society for equality in all arenas, now they have to fight against men to just be women. These men, who identify as women, are taking over women's modeling and sports. At what point can biological women not say 'enough!'
This proves once and for all that men are inhenrently better than women in every way bar giving birth.😆 Menrule just joking ladies, I know the difference between authentic and bootleg. 😂teamauthentic
Is he taking away a woman’s job🤷🏼♂️
What's so new and special about a guy in makeup?
The modelling world has no rules!
Totally sick and twisted. Can you actually stuke any lower
Wonderful! She’s beautiful.
Yeah, its a guy!
Men seem to be breaking down a lot of barriers.
Oh
So many conflicted wife beaters in here right now 😂
Gross
I will never buy it lol it's a joke ...
She’s beautiful. Full disclosure, haven’t read the article, but Sports Illustrated should have sporting people on the cover.
This disgusting $hit is news....
sick
Call me old fashion but I prefer women without dicks.
The question now becomes will men knowing this information buy the magazine or give it a pass? Sales will ans. that question.
No thanks....I prefer to look and women in bikinis instead of men
It’s a sick world
Good for him.
LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder
Yeah cause men like to look at chicks who used to be dudes...... Bye, sports illustrated!
So sad.....
Beautiful!
