On Saturday, May 30, SI Swimsuit models and friends of the magazine took over the W South Beach pool deck for a truly unforgettable Runway Show. In case you missed the action live in Miami last night, we’ve got you covered—not only with our recap below, but you can also stream the SI Swimsuit Runway Show on Hulu and Disney+ starting on Tuesday, June 9. In the meantime, take a peek at some of the biggest moments of the night below!Lizzo performed (and strutted her stuff on the catwalk)The “About Damn Time” singer hit the runway to perform a few of her high-energy hits, and she also walked the runway in a beautiful blue one-piece. Lizzo also took a moment to introduce her friend and 2026 SI Swimsuit Issue cover model Tiffany Haddish to the audience.Lizzo | Ivan Apfel/Getty Images2026 cover star Tiffany Haddish makes her SI Swimsuit runway debutThe actor and comedian appeared on the cover of the magazine’s annual issue for the first time this year, in a colorful shoot in Loreto, Baja California Sur, Mexico, photographed by James Macari.
