US Vanity Fair April 2009 : Paul Rudd, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, & Jason Segel by Annie Leibovitz

lolol! Tom ford played to perfection!! who r the pple in the ed? other designer spoofs?
 
I actually laughed at loud when I saw that first pic, I think they should have used that as the cover:lol:

Paul Rudd is so hot:heart:
Tina Fey should have been there too but since she had a VF cover already I guess it's ok..
 
:lol: That first image is hilarious. The rest of the editorial is good too. It would have been funnier if the Tom Ford, Scarlett, Keira shot was used for the cover but I think the actual shot used for the cover is juts fine.
 
I love this whole thing. Personally I hated the original Tom Ford cover and I'm considering buying this! The edits of all the other comedians are sensational, and I love the cover :lol:
 
Ah ha! I laughed out loud when I saw that.
They really should have used it for the cover shot, it would've been such a classic.
The only person missing is Michael Cera...

118 RETHINKING THE AMERICAN DREAM
Everyone wants “the American Dream,” but do we even know what that means anymore? While the phrase was coined only in 1931, by historian James Truslow Adams, the idea has taken many forms: the individualism of the Wild West, the social compact of the New Deal, the suburban rewards of the G.I. Bill, and the hyped-up materialism of recent decades. As many declare the dream in danger, David Kamp proposes a different way of thinking about our national ambition.


124 MADOFF’S WORLD
Months after the unraveling of Bernard Madoff’s alleged $50 billion Ponzi scheme, the man at the top of the pyramid remains largely a mystery. Even his revered and powerful mentors, who trusted him as a son, never saw it coming. With the help of Madoff’s friends, associates, and victims, Mark Seal breaks down the split personality—a kindly Uncle Bernie to some, a cold-eyed bully to others—that fooled so many for so long. Photographs by Stephen Wilkes.

136 AFRICAN QUEENS
It’ll be a jungle out there this summer, as Jil Sander, Jimmy Choo, Louis Vuitton, and other top fashion names go wild for animal prints and exotic floral patterns, not to mention beads, bangles, fringe, and feathers. Michael Roberts shows how hot the look can get.

WALL STREET ON THE TUNDRA
When Iceland’s alpha males saw Wall Street bankers raking in the billions, they dropped their fishing nets and dived into finance with all the gusto of Vikings entering battle. It didn’t take long for them to bankrupt the world’s most developed country. In Reykjavík, ground zero of debt leverage, Michael Lewis reports on an act of collective madness that has Icelanders blowing up their Range Rovers for the insurance money. Photographs by Jonas Fredwall Karlsson.

148 THE PIRATE LATITUDES
Last spring, Kalashnikov-wielding, khat-chewing Somali pirates hijacked the French luxury cruise ship Le Ponant in the treacherous Gulf of Aden. In a showdown with the might of President Nicolas Sarkozy’s navy, the bandits came away with $2.15 million. From the terrifying attack to the clash of cuisines to the ransom negotiations, William Langewiesche explores this new scourge of the 21st- century seas. Portrait by Jonas Fredwall Karlsson.


154 LAUGHING MATTER: COMEDY'S NEW LEGENDS
Imagine Jonah Hill as George Washington, Will Arnett as Han Solo, or Seth Rogen as Frida Kahlo. Ridiculous, right? Welcome to a casting director’s nightmare, as top photographers shoot Gang Apatow and the rest of America’s comedy vanguard in unlikely character. Jim Windolf figures out why their particular brand of funny fits the national mood.

74 IT’S STILL CHEEVER COUNTRY
Suburban ennui, the resurgent realm of Revolutionary Road and Mad Men, owes perpetual royalties to John Cheever, who died in 1982 with his literary powers undimmed. Reading a new biography of the author, James Wolcott taps into the turmoil behind country-club façades, including that of Cheever himself.

80 OVER THE HEDGE
Not long ago, almost any hotshot with a hedge fund could live large off his fees for beating the market. Now that many funds are stricken with losses and clients trying to pull out, they’re at one another’s throats. Separating the good from the bad from the ugly, Bethany McLean explains why there’s a future in this business.
