Several "Dancing With the Stars" professional dancers unveiled a whole new talent on Tuesday: modeling. Cheryl Burke, Chelsie Hightower, Edyta Sliwinska, and Anna Trebunskaya all took part in Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue.

The four ladies appeared in the magazine with their former partners Maurice Greene, Ty Murray, Lawrence Taylor, and Chuck Lidell. Not coincidentally, all four of these men have been successful professional athletes.

The Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue hit newsstands on Tuesday morning, and it features tennis star Andy Roddick's wife Brooklyn Decker on the cover.

Are you surprised that the ladies of "Dancing" went for this? Let me know your thoughts with a comment and I will have more news leading up to the premiere on ABC this spring.
