On NBC’s TODAY show, Stewart discussed preparing for the shoot, being open to change and evolution, and living with confidence.
In the write-up on Sports Illustrated’s website, Stewart was cited as being the “very definition of [an] ‘influencer,’” reaching more than 100 million fans a month.
Prior to Stewart’s spread, 74-year-old Maye Musk was named the oldest woman to be photographed and featured on a cover.
Alongside Stewart for the 2023 covers were Megan Fox, Kim Petras, and Brooks Nader.
Stewart is known for various business ventures such as her published books, cooking, and homemaking, and even her loving friendship with her BFF Snoop Dogg.
When asked by The New York Times about the shoot and the amount of prep time it took her to get ready, Stewart replied, “I’m still healthy, my hair is nice, and my skin is good. As for filters, forget it. I keep my facial appointments with Mario Badescu. I’ve done that once a month religiously for 40-something years.”

The NY Times also asked the homemaker-slash-lifestyle guru if she flirts with people...
She responded, saying, “Oh, do I. Of course I do. I’m not shy. I find certain men very attractive. If I am at a social event, I will make sure that I talk to those very attractive men.”
During her teenage years, Stewart reportedly modeled, working with brands such as Chanel and Unilever.
For the Sports Illustrated shoot, Stewart was photographed in the Dominican Republic.
