Not a single brown face. Where’s Frida Pinto or Zoe Saldana? This is very depressing. I’m not an avid reader of Vanity Fair. It seems as if their covers are usually more exciting then the stories inside so I tend to skip out on purchasing VF altogether. I am very disappointed in the editors since they couldn’t see that the new version of Hollywood encompasses women of all different races, shapes/sizes, cultures and nationalities. I think as media outlets it is important to be mindful of the messages that are sent out to the public. I would love to say that maybe this wasn’t intentional, but it’s a blatant appeal to the ideal of the “traditional” American girl. I’m sure they’ll be receiving a lot of complaints about this, but what else is new. In case you were wondering the actresses are Abbie Cornish, Kristen Stewart, Carey Mulligan, Amanda Seyfried, Rebecca Hall, Mia Wasikowska, Emma Stone, Evan Rachel Wood and Anna Kendrick.
