Model Kate Upton's swimsuit cover is the Sports Illustrated's 2013 cover, and Reuters reports on Feb. 12, 2013 the photo shoot was difficult for the 20-year-old to do. "It was freezing. I'm from Florida, so it wasn't easy for me," said Upton, who posed for the cover while in Antarctica in only a white bikini bottom and an unzipped white parka. "When I came back, I was losing my hearing and eyesight. My body was shutting down because it was working so hard to keep me warm."
According to M.J. Day, a senior editor for SI, temperatures were as low as 24 degrees Fahrenheit with wind chills as low as -20 Fahrenheit. "She braved six days in a bikini while we were head-to-toe in jackets," said Day. "No one will ever accuse her of being a whiny model, ever."

Although Upton braved the frigid Antarctica temperatures, she's had to summon up more of that courage. Some have said Kate Upton is fat.
As found at BuzzFeed Sports on Feb. 12, 2013 (Tweets posted as they appear.):
"Why is Kate upton so fat...and she still makes it on the cover of SI," tweets Benny Salzbrun.
"What is the obsession with Kate Upton? She's a tall chick with bad legs and saggy boobs. Pancake status. Like a trash bag with water in it," tweets Doug.
Said Upton, in response to scathing criticism about her weight by the pro-skinny site Skinny Gossip ,"I’m not going to starve just to be thin. I want to enjoy life, and I can’t if I’m not eating and miserable."
