LeBron James Makes Fashion History

LeBron James, the Cleveland Cavaliers' superstar, appears on the April cover of Vogue with supermodel Gisele Bundchen, joining actors Richard Gere and George Clooney as the only men to do so in the influential fashion magazine's 116-year history.

"It's pretty good," James said, "Me being a big guy and a big supporter of fashion, to be on the cover with Gisele, on the cover of the biggest fashion magazine ever - it's pretty good."

Vogue is featuring athletes and models in an annual issue devoted to size and shape. The 6-foot-9 James and 5-foot-11 Bundchen, girlfriend of Patriots star quarterback Brady, make a perfect pair.

The pairing of the All-Star forward and the runway icon was shot in January by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz in James' hometown of Akron, Ohio.
