Jessie Murph’s Sports Illustrated Bikini Sparks Wild Theory: 'She Looks Like AI'

Jessie Murph is heating up Sports Illustrated (and the internet) with a stunning new photo spread that’s left fans doing double takes.

In a series of sun-drenched shots, the rising music star poses in a range of playful, retro-inspired swimwear looks. From a textured pink bikini by the water to a glamorous towel-turban moment, Murph exudes effortless confidence and old-Hollywood glam.

Other images show Jessie Murph in a bold blue gingham two-piece and oversized black shades, serving attitude with every frame.

In one standout shot, Jessie lounges effortlessly by the water’s edge, wearing a soft pink bikini that perfectly contrasts the rich blue of the ocean behind her. Her tousled waves and sun-kissed glow give off major “it girl” energy, while the minimal accessories let her natural beauty take center stage.

Fans immediately swooned, with one writing, “EPIC! What a shoot!!,” while others questioned if the image had been digitally enhanced.

"She looks AI lol," someone commented. "Not real," another claimed.

Another photo captures Jessie wrapped in a white towel with a dramatic turban-style wrap around her head, giving off vintage poolside glam reminiscent of an old Hollywood starlet. Her sharp cat-eye liner and nude lip complete the throwback vibe.

One fan commented, "There she is!!!" as another wrote, "She is everything."

In a third shot, Jessie rocks a bold blue gingham two-piece with oversized black sunglasses, giving off effortless cool as she leans against a retro-style chair. The look is playful, cheeky, and very on-trend, but it’s her flawless complexion and almost surreal symmetry that had some followers wondering if they were looking at a real person or a computer-generated model.

"I'm convinced Jessie Murph is a social experiment," someone suggested.

A more close-up image features Jessie with damp hair slicked back, her gaze locked on the camera with an intensity that’s hard to ignore. She’s makeup-free, or at least appears to be, showcasing dewy skin and freckles, a stark contrast to the glammed-up looks in the rest of the shoot.

While many applauded the stripped-down vibe, others still couldn’t shake the feeling that the photo looked “too perfect.”

In yet another photo, Jessie leans against a railing in a strappy black bikini, her body angled just right as golden hour light washes over her, casting a warm glow on her sun-kissed skin. The lighting, pose, and effortless confidence make the shot feel like pure magic, and fans agree.

Comments poured in with reactions like “OH MY GOSH,” “Knock out,” and “Heavenly Beautiful,” while one user proudly celebrated the milestone moment, writing, “She made it on the cover of Sports Illustrated!”

In her interview with Sports Illustrated, Jessie Murph gave fans a deeper look into her creative world, opening up about her upcoming album "Sex Hysteria" and the surreal experience of joining the iconic SI Swimsuit family.

“This new album, 'Sex Hysteria,' it’s very influenced by the ‘60s,” she revealed. “The features on this album are like actually my dream features. Lil Baby, Sexxy Red’s on it, Gucci Mane, and I just love ‘em all. I’m really happy they’re all on the album. I wouldn’t pick any other three people to do it.”

When it comes to her creative process, Jessie is all about raw, in-the-moment emotion. “I just like freestyle on the mic,” she said. “I have to be feeling exactly what I’m singing. If I start a song, I have to finish it that day.” She also credited Amy Winehouse’s “You Know I’m No Good” as the first song she remembers singing, hinting at the soulful edge woven into her own music.

Between her music, modeling, and effortless cool, Jessie Murph is proving she’s not just a rising star. She’s a multifaceted force on the rise.
