Michael Phelps new Sports Illustrated cover can be seen above [Website – Amy Grindhouse].
I am a girl, so maybe I am missing something… but isn’t Sports Illustrated a nudie magazine that usually features ladies in various states of undress? Anyhoo, S.I. seem to have gone in a new direction and put a half-naked man on the cover instead.
‘Human Dolphin’ Phelps, shot the cover on Sunday night, in China.
The art direction is a nod to Mark Spitz, the former Olympic swimming champ who showed off the seven golds he won at the 1972 Munich Games.
Which of the two images do you prefer?
The Sport Illustrated Issue will be on news-stands tomorrow.
