I want that Jeremy cover!!
 
So more rich and famous older photographers being ironic and desperately trying to be down with the kidz with these ugly, cheap fanzine-wannabe aesthetics? :sigh:

That joke isn’t funny anymore.

(The Beatrice Dalle cover could have been so amazing. Instead, she looks like the living dead crackhag that’s always trying to bum a smokes off me when I have to make a stop on Bloor/Sherbourne. Juergen did not miss a single mark when he was with Helmut and Melanie— even his backstage shots were so effortlessly cool/sexy/gorgeous. Nowadays he’s so arrogant and plain lazy that I wouldn’t even wince if it was revealed his dog accidentally took that shot of Beatrice. :heavy sigh: ...)

Thanks Daniel.

Awful covers, the whole lot of them. But what's doubly awful is the glorification of the gangster jailbird on that main cover. Not too shocked that Klein ended up being the first to shoot him. Aggression is, after all, his sort of thing.
 
Ugh, pass. Pass on every single cover. :wacko:

Edit: Were none of Klein's usual male models available? Tyson Ballou?? Noah Mills? Sam Webb?? Adam Senn????

I've never purchased and/or thumbed thru a single issue of this magazine. I don't think I'm missing anything.
 
Every single cover is awful, and Jeremy Meeks is not interesting, or a model.
The bizarre fascination with him is creepy and borderline racist tbh.
 
Everything’s offensive and everyone’s racist LOL The snowflakes are offended by a Chanel Boomerang; Gabourey Takes A Trip To Chanel and the mean associate is racist for looking down on her cos they would never look down on a very big White woman who is dressed poorly wearing a wig, right…?; If you swoon over a handsome ex-ganstger/ex-convict who happens to be Black, you’re racist…

What’s really offensive here is how blatantly lazy the shot is. The fact that they had one of the most stylistic photographers working in high fashion today just take a basic snapshot that a 4yo could have done is just offensive and insulting to their readers. I get that the gimmicks that they're all rich and famous photographers— and maybe even talented… then make an effort instead of churning out shots a toddler can snap. That’s offensive. Not as offensive and dumb as the current issue of Arena Homme +...

(And why wouldn’t Jeremy snatch up his 15min of fame while people are still swooning over him? Except for the cache/gimmick of being an ex-gangster/ex-convict, he’s hardly exceptional.)
