Kettering native makes cover of Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue
Kettering native Brooklyn Decker can add Sports Illustrated cover model to her resume.
Decker who married tennis champ Andy Roddick in April appears on the cover of the magazine’s annual swimsuit issue. She is sort of wearing a little yellow bikini.
Decker’s parents, Tessa and Stephen Decker, met when they were students at Kettering Medical Arts College.
They were married in 1986.
The Deckers lived in West Carrollton and in Madison Twp., outside of Middletown, with Tessa’s parents, Dan and Nancy Moore. They moved to Charlotte, N.C., when Brook was 1.
Decker, 22, was born Brook Daniel Decker at Kettering Medical Center. Read more about Decker here.
Decker, who has appeared in the swimsuit issue five times, was interviewed on the NBC’s Today Show, today, Tuesday, Feb. 9.
She said winning the award was a major honor in modeling, comparing it to winning the MVP at the Super Bowl.
“I feel like the New Orleans Saints did Sunday night,” she said.

Singer punched during bar brawl
Maybe there was a reason Nelly use to wear a Band-Aid.
The “Hot in Herre” rapper was accidentally punched Friday while trying to break up a fight between his bodyguards and bouncers at an Miami club, the New York Post says.
The 35-year-old was readying to preform at a pre-Super Bowl party when he noticed things heating up between his bodyguards and club security, the newspaper says.
Nelly got in the middle of it and got popped.
Luckily things weren’t more serious. Being at the wrong place at the wrong time is sometimes a very, very, very bad thing.
