“If people aren’t hating, then you probably weren’t doing great anyways.”

When asked if Pelas thought Mahomes would make a good model, she responded as follows: “I think she can do — women can do whatever they want to do. Whatever they feel like doing.

“Women are great at reinventing and doing anything at any time, so 100 percent, whatever she wants.”

Pelas exclaimed about how much she enjoyed Mahomes’ photo shoot.

“I love everything Sports Illustrated does. They knock it out of the park every time,” she said, adding that she’s “excited to see” where modeling takes Mahomes.

Days before her husband, quarterback Patrick Mahomes, was chosen as SI Swimsuit rookie, Mahomes led the Chiefs to an overtime victory over the 49ers in Sunday’s Super Bowl 2024, winning 25–22.

The addition of Mahomes to the SI Swim family was also discussed by Camille Kostek, a former cover girl and model for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit.

“I found out the same way everyone else does, you have no idea who the rookie class is going to be,” said Kostek, the former girlfriend of Rob Gronkowski, the four-time Super Bowl champion. “I believe that when you have this platform and it’s something that you want to carry on and build on, the world is your oyster.”

The next year, Kostek appeared on the SI Swimsuit cover after being chosen as the co-winner of the 2018 Swim Search.

Mahomes, a licensed personal trainer and fitness entrepreneur, sold his career as a professional soccer player to become the owner of KC Current in the NWSL.

Speaking with the publication, Brittany talked about how she manages to be scrutinized by the media and NFL fans while remaining “unapologetically myself in any setting.”

In addition to welcoming Mahomes warmly in person at the 2024 Super Bowl, Jena Sims, the wife of LIV Golf pro-Brooks Koepka, who is in the 2024 SI Swim rookie class, did so in a round of social media posts.
