You read that right. The comedian’s hard work and self-belief led her to change her body and make the cut for the latest Swimsuit Edition.
Tiffany Haddish is leaving no stone unturned when it comes to self-exploration. The comedian and actress is expanding her horizons all the way to Sports Illustrated. Haddish, 46, just became a 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover star and showed off her toned figure in an orange and yellow bikini. The entertainer being a cover girl isn’t completely left field, as she once dreamed of becoming one.
