THIS HAPPENED ON SI.COM TODAY.

IN HONOR OF THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY

OF THE SPORTS ILLUSTRATED

SWIMSUIT ISSUE, THEY UNVEILED A

SPECIAL COVER-- THEY'RE NOT

WEARING SWIMSUITS.

THERE'S A LITTLE PIECE OF ONE

RIGHT THERE.

BUT IT'S THE NON SWIMSUIT ISSUE.

SO WE ARE TIRED OF DEALING WITH

MODELS WHOSE ACTUALLY MOVE,

BLINK, AND OCCASIONALLY WOULD

EAT, SO THEY RELEASED THIS COVER

OF BARBIE ON THE COVER.

THIS IS ULTIMATELY WHAT THE REAL

HOUSEWIVES ARE ALWAYS TRYING TO

ACHIEVE, BUT THERE IS LESS

PLASTIC ON THIS ONE.

AND THIS IS A 55-YEAR-OLD I

WOULD ACTUALLY (BLEEP).

THEY EVEN SHOT A BEHIND THE

SCENES VIDEO OF THE PHOTOSHOOT

WHICH DOESN'T AT ALL SEND THE

RIGHT MESSAGES TO YOUNG WOMEN.

LISTEN.

>> SHE'S IN SOME WASY THE

PERFECT MODEL.

SHE DOESN'T BLINK, SHE DOESN'T

MOVE, SHE TAKES DIRECTION.

>> FINALLY A MODEL THAT CAN POSE

AND TAKE DIRECTIONS WITHOUT

THAT PESKY HUMANITY AND HER

OPINIONS GETTING IN THE WAY.

(LAUGHTER)

AND STILL, THE GUY MANAGED TO

SAY, "IN SOME WAYS SHE'S

PERFECT."

STILL MARGINALIZING, STILL

MARGINALIZING.

COMEDIANS, PLEASE NAME THIS

BARBIE.

TOM LENNON?

>> FITS UP YOUR BUTT WHILE YOU

READ THE SWIMSUIT ISSUE BARBIE.

>> Chris: NATASHA LEGGERO.

>> ONLY OPENS HER MOUTH TO THROW

UP BARBIE.

>> Chris: BRETT GELMAN.

>> THE THANK JESUS I'M STILL

WHITE BARBIE.
