Vanity Fair February 2016 : Megyn Kelly by Patrick Demarchelier

What a bore. But I like this classic styling.

No no no no no, please no. This woman is detestable.

Turns out it IS Megyn Kelly on the cover of the UK version as well, which is still a strange choice, but looking through the contents, there isn't really a celebrity story that would successfully take its place on the front.

I don't know who Megyn Kelly is, so I can't comment on whether the article - which is one long compliment - has any merit, but for a thin issue (122 pgs), there's still enough to read.

The editor's letter has the usual anti-Trump sentiment, Eiza Gonzalez is the Vanities girl, and there are mini-features on podcasts and political correctness. "Nobody has ever labelled a statement as 'politically correct' and meant this as a compliment".

There are stories about the current state of Europe, that guy who put up the price of toxoplasmosis medication, someone who got into a relationship with a heart transplant doctor who wasn't what he seemed, plus a piece about the making of Grease (they wanted The Fonz in the lead role, and Travolta was a scientologist even back then), potential sabotage at a premier dog show ("Murder at Crufts - police are following all leads") and legendary socialite Lynn Wyatt celebrates her 80th birthday - with a picture of Valentino in a plaid shirt and jeans.

Roll on the Hollywood issue.

They made Megyn Kelly into Grace Kelly. I love it!

"Derek Zoolander" - not Ben Stiller - is the subject of the Proust questionnaire. Have they ever done a fictional character before?

Love the full-page, Bond villain-esque photos of Martin Shkreli by Nigel Parry!

Well, it seems Graydon replaced his Anti-Bush rants with the Trump version. He can get so passionate sometimes, love him! I haven't gotten around to picking up this issue yet, the unrecognisable face puts me off somewhat.
