Description: Kate Upton, The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover model branding her body as 'lazy and lardy'. Kate Upton's 34-25-35 statistics is making ripples in the fashion industry, pushing aside the popular claim that only size-zero women can sizzle in bikini. According to an online poll, she has the world's best bum. The cover girl for Sports Illustrated's 2012 Swimsuit Issue won a fifth of the 24,000 votes in the Sun poll to beat reality TV star Kim Kardashian into second place. Kate Upton has said that she understands why her male fans like her, but insisted that her penchant for bikini photos is simply 'like any job.' Upton has taken the modeling world by storm since landing the coveted Sports Illustrated Swim cover and now boasts nearly 400,000 followers on twitter. 'I grew up in Florida riding horses, so the majority of my life I was either in boots or a bathing suit,' the New York Post quoted her as telling GQ magazine. All right, so you've seen her covered up before, but now we have way more photos of Kate Upton wearing something other than just a bikini.
