Kate Upton was born in St. Joseph, Michigan, and raised in Melbourne, Florida. She has three brothers and sisters. Her uncle is Fred Upton, Congressman for the Sixth Congressional District of Michigan. An equestrienne, Upton showed for the American Paint Horse Association and competed on a national level. With her horse Roanie Pony, she won three APHA Reserve World Championships, in 13 and Under Western Riding, 13 and Under Horsemanship and 14-18 Western Riding and named the 13 and Under Reserve All-Around Champion at the APHA World Championship Show, giving her a total of five championships. In addition, Upton ended up third overall on the APHA youth Top Twenty. With a second horse, Zipped, she won 14-18 Western Riding and was top 5 in 14-18 Horsemanship and 14-18 Western Pleasure in 2009.

The Sports Illusrated Swimsuit Issue was invented by editor Andre Laguerre to fill the winter months, a typically slow point in the sporting calendar. He asked fashion reporter Jule Campbell to go on a shoot to fill space, including the cover, with a beautiful model. The first issue, released in 1964, entailed a cover featuring Babette March and a five-page layout. Campbell soon became a powerful figure in modeling and molded the issue into a media phenomenon by featuring "bigger and healthier" California women and printing the names of the models with their photos, beginning a new supermodel era. However, the issue did not exclusively feature models until 1997. In the 1950s a few women appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated, but the 1964 issue is considered to be the beginning of the current format known as the Swimsuit Issue.

Oh, she is so much fun! So sweet, too! Very lovely young woman!

It also helps that she likes ponies.

Up, up and away!

Wait a minute, she likes ponies?! I might have to reconsider.

JRS · February 17 2012, 09:07 AM

Nice lips..and tits this beautiful woman has

Plus otherwise nice figure and one has to give a special mention to those pretty blue eyes

Thumbs up, naturally

Very pretty. I love that video of her dancing at the basketball game. She seems like a fun girl.

Yoda · February 17 2012, 09:13 AM

Pretty much flawless.

RogerWaters · February 17 2012, 12:53 PM

Big thumbs up!

Out Of My Vulcan Mind · February 17 2012, 12:58 PM

Big thumbs up for one of the sexiest women on the planet.

The video of her doing the Dougie is adorable. I like how she seems to enjoy her potent sexiness in a sweet, fun way.

If I have to die on a rack, please let it be hers!

Another one that I really don't know anything about, but... WOW!

Captain Craig · February 17 2012, 03:24 PM

up not UP
I think we've had better blondes. Her lip mole is a bit distracting imo vs being an asset like they are with some people like Crawford.

Captain Dago · February 17 2012, 04:40 PM

What! Another generic blonde! And a Yankees fan, how could I possibly vote for this girl!

LOL, just kidding. What a knockout! And, best of all, nobody had to tell this model to eat a cheeseburger.

Thumbs WAAAY up!
