Jena Sims was quite surprised after being crowned the Rookie of the Year at SI Swimsuit recently. She was posing at the Hard Rock Hotel in New York this week for the brand's launch party, when the editor-in-chief MJ Day presented her with the trophy.

"I am so surprised, like, what?" Sims exclaimed while receiving the award via SI Swimsuit.

Editor-in-chief MJ Day spoke highly of Sims' work ethic, her philantrophic efforts through her own non-profit organization Pageant of Hope and her role as a mother, back in 2024 (via SI Swimsuit).

"Jena embodies the tenacity, determination and dedication that we look for in all talent that represent our brand. She’s extremely hard working, champions her non-profit, Pageant of Hope, and gracefully balances the roles of devoted new mother and supportive wife, proving that strength and compassion go hand in hand."

Jena Sims had applied for the Swim Search three times before being accepted. During her rookie of the year campaign, she had mentioned that it was her "biggest goal" ever since she was a little child and had worked towards it her entire life. The social media influencer believed that she was exactly where she needed to be and it was the beginning of a "huge chapter" of her life.
