Even though Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue doesn't come out until early next week, leaked photos by Fashion Copious show that Kate Upton will be the 2013 cover girl

Upton, who was also on the cover in the 2012 edition, is wearing a parka and white bikini bottom, an outfit she presumably modeled in during her Antarctica photo shoot

Even though it's a surprise that Upton is on the cover for the second consecutive year, Sports Illustrated wanted a big name since it's their 50th anniversary swimsuit issue.

Other models rumored to be featured in the swimsuit magazine are BCS National Title Game sensation Katherine Webb and Derek Jeter's girlfriend Hannah Davis

Sports Illustrated will officially unveil their cover on Monday.
