THE latest Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition has caused a bit of a stir, but probably not for the reasons you might expect.
As Dave Ferrell, editor of respected US-based game fishing magazine Marlin discovered, this year’s calendar features one particularly strange and somewhat disturbing photo.
“As I was perusing Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition online this morning, as I am apt to do each spring when the issue hits newsstands, I ran across a disturbing photo. Disturbing is not a usually a word I would associate with scantily clad, gorgeous young women, but in one of the photos online, a pretty young girl is sporting an obviously deceased sailfish as a shawl,” wrote Ferrell.
The model featured “wearing” the estimated 70-80lb sailfish is Jessica Gomes.
