Martha Stewart is on the cover of 'Sports Illustrated' at 81 years old

At 81 years old, businesswoman Martha Stewart is the oldest woman to pose for the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine's annual swimsuit edition. The entrepreneur takes the record from Elon Musk's mother Maye Musk, who posed in 2022 at age 74.

This year, the celebrity shares the spotlight with actresses Megan Fox and Brooks Nader and transgender singer Kim Petras. Martha Stewart is an entrepreneur, author and television host who built an empire with her lifestyle and cooking business. However, she describes being on the cover of the popular magazine as a milestone.

Stewart said in an interview that what motivated her to do this project was her desire to show "people that a woman my age can still look good." "I don't think about age very much, but I thought that this is kind of historic," she added.
