It must of been in her contract to get this cover. Should've gone to Rihanna.

2 US Vogue covers in a row, and I dislike her in both. Loved Katy's outfit at the Gala though, and I'm not surprised by the cover.

In all fairness, she had one of the best looks of the evenings. If these covers were truly handed out based on merit it would have been Tracee Ellis Ross or Claire Danes who should've gotten it. These women actually tried to show us something interesting. But I guess it's all about who will sell. I don't mind Pharell because we all know it's a vanity thing for him. This is the closest he'll ever get to having American Vogue's masthead behind his head.

Can't believe Rihanna's name was brought up yet again (she's got two covers already!). Anyway, her look was ruined by that awfully tight sandals.

Personally, I think these US Vogue Met Gala editions are a total waste. There is literally nothing inside that we haven't already seen for free, splashed across Vogue's website or social media platforms. I wonder if copies actually sell on the newsstand.. (would be interesting to see the sales figures).

Like who would by this when the MET pictures are all over the internet?

ETA: Posted in the same minute as Vogue28, exactly!

its essentially free to produce. free images from the night. free copy done in house.
all you have to pay for is printing.

winner.

Could they REALLY not have found a better photo for the cover?

It looks like Katy and Pharrell are pasted next to each other. Terrible photo.
Glad Anna didn't put Rihanna on the cover tho. She looked silly in that overhyped dress. This special issue is just as pointless as the Met gala.
The fact that trees were killed to produce this is a tragedy.

Rihanna should've been on the cover.

Katy looks lost (as almost always) and Pharrell looks terribly haggard...

Taylor Swift got the cover after being one of the hosts (while simultaneously fronting the cover of US Vogue).

I find myself asking this question constantly when new magazines come out. This is definitely a horrible cover.
