Can we not and say we didn't.

Enough. Enough. Enough. How is this art? How is this fashion? I have no personal issue with Angelina and Brad but why is this a W cover and not the cover of say US Weekly? Is the next issue of V going to be Suri Cruise by Katie Holmes?

Or Tom Cruise by Josh Hartnett?

Bigger, untagged


ontd.

I like the cover. Angelina is just so beautiful, and I like how natural she looks here.

[CarlottaC]

i heard about a big editorial of her by brad

[respira]

awww.. me of when my little one was a breast-feeding machine. exquisite

[KiroTV]

She looks beautiful, but I don't know about all this...

Interesting too use a personal snapshot of Brad himself, but I fail too see how this fits the cover of the annual art issue of a fashion magazine.

[giancinephile]

feels more like Vanity Fair material than one intended for a fashion publication...

^Vanity Fair would have been much more suitable.

Or you know...In Touch Weekly.

yes, it looks strange, but after all all American fashion magazines are using actresses and celebrities for their covers, so you should not been surprised, it has been a trend for many years already! let-s hope V will not follow this horrible trend! And let-s hope some of those magazines will give us the pleasure to see a real model on their covers from time to time...but thank GOD there are European magazines and other editions of Vogue, so we can see models on covers!
other than that, the cover is sweet, I like Anjelina and Brad, but they had enough W coverage already! They better publish those in Vanity Fair or the other celebrity mags...but we must be already used to it, so let-s hope the content will be more fashion oriented, but since it is the art issue, i doubt any of us will be pleased with it.

yeah! Very TRUE!!!

That's why I have lost my appetite for a lot of American fashion publications except for the likes of let's say V!

I'm getting tired of the celebrity covers. Vogue and W sometimes feel like overstyled versions of Vanity Fair at times...

Uggh, W better not turn out to be some celebrity-crazy magazine!

But, it is a beautiful photo of Angie breastfeeding, nothing I expected.

It better not be! It's getting disgusting and tasteless.

This all leads in the desire to be an ultimate sell-out. grrrr

[masquerade]

This is so infuriating.

The art issue should be about art and fashion. This is neither. I know Brad Pitt likes to fancy himself some sort of artist, but he is not. These are home pictures, they aren't art and its not a fashion spread. I love the art issue of W, and this cheapens it. Not to mention this is the second year in a row she is on the cover of the Art issue.

Please, grab any of the artists mentioned on the cover and commission them to do a cover and I would buy it. I want the art issue, I look forward to it, but this isn't art. So what can we expect inside?
