Vanity Not So Fair

    I love Vanity Fair, It’s my dream, someday, to become the editor of the publication. Naturally, I was disappointed when I picked up the August issue to find a lack of color. Their featured “upcoming talent” was unimpressive. The magazine only featured two minority talents, Zoe Kravitz and Rob Brown.  No Asians and no Hispanics (Daniel was not happy). America Ferrera anyone? Vanity Fair could have chosen a lot better.

    The Vanity Fair shoot takes place on a white beach, features all white clothing and mostly, you guessed it, all white actors. To top it all off, the beach sort of looks like the Hamptons, at least they thoroughly completed the stereotype. And since when are the Jonas Brothers affiliated with Hollywood actors?  The byline reads “today’s crop of hot young things”, we think it’s more like “today’s crop of white young things”.
