"I am very happy," she told Kimmel, barely containing her excitement.

"Wow, I feel so honored and excited to be back with Sports Illustrated!!" she wrote.
Sports Illustrated also shared backstage footage of Upton learning she was 2017's cover girl on Instagram.
They also showed off behind-the-scenes footage of Upton modeling for the mag.
The magazine — on newsstands now — also features Chrissy Teigen, Hannah Jeter, Christie Brinkley (along with her daughters Alexa Ray Joel and Sailor Brinkley Cook) and Nina Agdal.
