It might be the worst magazine cover I have ever seen.Īnd it really doesn’t fucking help the cause for women, and for appreciating age and experience, when your cover model in her fifties is painted to the point of being half her age and half-cartoon (and like the star of a bad National Lampoon teen sex comedy), while your male cover model who’s 49 is allowed to look pretty much exactly like himself. How do you take Nicole Kidman’s raw material and do this with it, even if the point is surrealism? But the art itself isn’t surreal, particularly. This is not the early aughts and Nicole is not Britney, nor Fergie, nor anyone in “Lady Marmalade,” and that facial expression is bananas. Britney was not 54 when she stomped down that school hallway, for good reason. I fully support people of all ages feeling sexy and finding their groove with their bodies, but this particular outfit does not read “sexy” so much as “infantilizing.” A 54-year old Nicole Kidman can do a lot better than being turned into “Hit Me, Baby, One More Time,” no matter how catchy that song is. It looks like the cover of a shitty comic book written by a dude who believes he’s the voice of female empowerment for which women have been waiting.

I’ll link to each one on Instagram in case the embeds don’t work. She’s first.Ī note, though: Vanity Fair put videos of each person up first, and you have to swipe to the right to see the actual chosen cover (it’s different than the video’s thumbnail image - in Nicole’s case, so jarringly that I had perverse fun going back and forth). And there is a group shot this year, but I believe it’s an interior photo instead, Vanity Fair is promoting eight individual covers, describing them as “at play in fantastical habitats created by the artist-photographers Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari.” They teased the cover drop with a post that said, “A surrealist journey awaits.” Surreal is indeed one way to describe the experience of looking at Nicole Kidman here. ![]() Vanity Fair traditionally does a large group cover for its Hollywood issue, with awards contenders draped languidly atop each other looking bored and not like themselves. ![]()
