Thirty-eight years after Christie Brinkley first posed for the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, she’s back for another spread–this time accompanied by her daughters. At age 63, Brinkley rocks some skimpy suits alongside 18-year-old Sailor Brinkley Cook and 31-year-old Alexa Ray Joel in a new spread for the publication.

“In a country that’s very ageist, people love to put you in little boxes,” Brinkley tells People. “Women feel very limited by their numbers. On a personal level, I thought, if I can pull this off, I think it will help redefine those numbers and remove some of the fear of aging.” The issue hits stands Wednesday.

President Trump’s approval ratings are tanking and one of his biggest celeb fans is joining other supporters in jumping ship: Kanye West. According to TMZ, the rapper has deleted all pro-Trump tweets from his Twitter account. The scrub is reportedly due to “disapproving of Trump’s actions during his first two weeks in office.” Kanye came out in support of Trump in November 2016 and met with the then President-elect to discuss “an ambassador role of sorts” after the election. The outlet cites Trump’s alleged “Muslim ban” as one of Kanye’s reasons for turning against the president and say the choice to do so was all his. Perhaps this means Kanye is gearing up for his 2020 Presidential run.

Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl halftime performance was hailed by fans and musicians alike. However, some fans apparently felt Gaga’s high wire act took a page out of P!nk’s playbook. P!nk is not having it. Yesterday the singer took to Instagram with a message for haters. “Let’s squash this before it even has a chance to become a thing,” she wrote. “Lady Gaga killed it yesterday. Her voice was powerful and beautiful, her outfits were on point, choreography stellar, her heart was in it and she sang about love and inclusiveness, all in from of millions and millions of people.” “Who cares if I flew first?” she continued “Cause I didn’t! Cirque and Peter Pan been it the air for years!” Lastly, she urged her fans to focus on more important issues going on in the country.

There is increasing evidence that someone in The Simpsons writers’ room is either a psychic or time traveler. Several people have made note of how the show, which has accurately predicted such events as Donald Trump’s presidential win and a 2016 Nobel Prize winner, foreshadowed Lady Gaga’s Super Bowl performance during a 2012 episode that featured the pop star. The episode in question was titled “Lisa Goes Gaga” and featured Gaga holding a show in Springfield in which she flew through the air on wires in an over-the-top outfit. While Gaga did not have a fireworks-shooting bra at the Super Bowl, most everything else is pretty close.
