US InStyle January 2021 : Barack Obama by Shaniqwa Jarvis

I read that this is a subscriber cover. There will be a newsstand cover with a different subject.

Horrible cover, his portraits by Annie Leibovitz of US Vogue are better that this image.

Because that’s what this multi billion dollar industry is all about, huh? Trolling?
Sorry, couldn’t help but think of that quote from TDWP. I don’t really care who’s on the cover of InStyle, honestly.

It's not like he asked them to be annoyed or to hate him. Nobody is trolling, just him living.

It's only for his book tour, I think? I don't have any problem seeing him on a cover because it's not as if it's his first
This one is his worst ever. That expression reeks of arrogance which is not something I associate him with, and lack of styling - Laura is so tasteless to go with this image!
So far we've seen Dr Fauci, Joe Biden, and now Obama. Since Laura is such a firm subscriber to the 'badass/boss lady/girl boss' brand of Buzzfeed feminism, where are the female politicians on these covers?

Coming for Laura like that? Careful Benn, she might just log back in and tell us all off.

It was a JOKE. Perhaps a sense of humor or reading the entirety of my comment or watching TDWP (which stands for The Devil Wears Prada) would help you understand.

Hahaha sorry I only read the first sentence. Social media and American politics have turned us into sour monsters

@Laura Brown we need an explain.

She did that once?
I don’t mind him being a cover subject but why the normcore styling? He’s not president anymore so putting him on a designer’s suit or something wouldn’t hurt. It’s not like he’s known for being a socialist or something.

 

[Fiercification]

Always have time for Obama, but this is beyond random. As others have said, why InStyle though? And to mug him off with such a weird/bad shot on the cover...let's not.

 

[dfl-001]

That smug look, ... ' eat $h** trumpeters!'
It's a terrible portrait, but I love it just for that alone.

From being a president to covering InStyle.. that would be quite humiliating for any European politician. US politics is such a joke.
