Meghan Fox looks like a skanky drug addict in this photo.

She IS a skanky drug addict.
Both photos are photoshopped to death but Martha looks much happier. MF looks desperate.

Trust me, there is not an 81 year old woman in the world who's skin is line free. She's a very pretty woman, but that picture has been altered!

The pictures of all the models have been altered.

still an eeuuuwww. I've lost respect for her.

I think it’s sad that a woman of 81 is still desperate for the male gaze. And that women all over will see this and feel like crap because they don’t look like she does at 81 - never mind she’s had plenty of expensive work done, uses plenty of expensive products and has a life of leisure most women could not imagine and with which they, too, might have fewer wrinkles.

I do hospice work and I’ve spent most of the last decade with elders. I was also raised largely by my grandmother and spent a lot of time with her peers, so I’ve been around elders a great deal my whole life. I think elderly faces are beautiful with their deep grooves hard earned from enduring the wreckage that life can often bring.

It’s sad to me that the notion of diversity exhibited by this SI cover means applying the same ridiculous beauty standards put on young women onto older women, too. I guess we should all embrace being objectified right up to the grave, but it’s gross. Look what poor Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda did to their faces during the years that Grace & Frankie ran on Netflix - I loved the show because it focused on older folks, but the last couple of seasons they had both butchered their faces so badly it was painful to look at them, they were plastic and ugly. I would go to work with the lovely old wrinkled and yet beautiful woman I was nursing to the end, then go home and dial up G&F and it just made me sad.

Head’s up to the ladies doing this stuff to your faces and bodies - you will look like a freak if you are lucky enough to make it to your 90s.

Bet he has no objections to plastic surgery when it comes to breast augmentation or photoshopped images.

“Woke” is a term that was coined by the left. Clearly SI has gone full woke by putting an octogenarian ex-con, fat women and men who think they are women in what was once the best selling issue of the year. Nobody wants to look at any of these people in bathing suits. Used to be men were their target audience, I guess not anymore.

Careful there, the contributors to DCUM love their botox and fillers and they will NEVER look like all the other fake faces out there! I agree with your sentiments, hate that Martha did this cover, I mean why? That being said, it's such a shame that she neglects to mention the botox, fillers, plastic surgery and special lighting used to achieve her cover looks. I am so sick of people like her attributing it to genetics and proper diet. Am I to believe she did not take the "shot" to lose that fat? Please, any celebrity that has magically taken their health seriously over the last 18 months is getting the fat shot, lo carb my ass. She just comes across as truly phony, but then again, that is the job of any celebrity.

Well how can a man be their target audience when we don't know what a man is any longer? Thanks women, nice job.

I’m sure you look fabulous in a bathing suit/trunks

I hope I look like this when I am 80+, it will mean that I am not a shallow self centered insecure git who wastes time and money on beauty products that I could be donating to the food bank to feed hungry children.

100% this for me. She looks gorgeous—they all do—but good lord why do we have to do this all the time—prove women are hot at any age or with body type (ignoring the plastic surgery/makeup/lighting/photoshop it would take most people to get there). Sigh.

SI’s target audience has moved over to OnlyFans and harder stuff. Like most of print media these days, SI is trying to figure out how to stay relevant.

BTW I think it’s great they put an 81-year-old on the cover. Even if she has botox and fillers, even if I’d never do those myself. You know you guys would slay any 80-something who was photographed wrinkles and all, because they’re supposed to fade away into irrelevance, right? Martha is a toe in the water (literally) for representing octogenarians.

Looks like a life well lived. Every opportunity taken and time not wasted in a salon or surgeon’s office.

Didn't read the rest but this is my take. I think it's pathetic that she stooped this low at 81 and didn't need to. WHY???>? She looks OK but she's still 81. Other than to grab headlines (which may have been why her PR people said "do it", why????? I think it's embarrassing for her.

She is a billionaire and will never be irrelevant. Whether people like to admit it or not, the SI swimsuit issue used to be about young gorgeous women posing in exotic locations. Not about making a billionaire octogenarian ex-con feel better about herself, empowering delusional men or affirming overweight women by trying to make them think they are as beautiful as a Kathy Ireland, etc. Oh well, just another one of life’s pleasures the left is destroying.
