Amanda looks pretty, but it's just not an interesting photo as a magazine cover.

So much retouching on the cover! She doesn't need it.
Typical Cass Bird, always trying too hard.
 
i like the cover...she is beautiful....
 
She's beautiful and I like the cover.
I'll pass on the editorial, though. ( typical boring Hollywood Hills house photo set)

No, her Vogue cover was miles better

Maybe it's retro, because I like this better than her Vogue cover.
 
I don't like her at all, and her poetry reads like a 2nd grader's homework project, but this is an infinitely better cover and editorial than her Vogue. She's young...this suits her more than how Vogue turned her into some goddess.
 
She's beautiful, and that cover is shot is gorgeous.
However, I've never found her, or her mediocre poetry, the least bit interesting.
Kudos to her for taking full advantage of her 15 minutes tho.
 
Amanda is an infinitely photogenic woman. BEAUTIFUL cover!!!
 
I also don't think she used the term "proximate" correctly in her quote. I'd expect more from the Poet Laureate with a supposed mastery of the language.

I'm sure the interview will read like a mashup of thesaurus.com and "Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul."
 
Just as I had expected... WSJ. Magazine (once again) profiling a subject far better than American Vogue. This leaves Amanda's US Vogue cover from May 2021 in the dust. What a gorgeous black and white portrait, quite taken aback, especially considering it's by the hit or extremely MISS Cass Bird.

Steven Meisel is working with WSJ now. A supplement has a budget that can afford Meisel and not the US mainstream like Vogue, Elle or HB. Condé Nast and Hearst, can you fell the embarrassment.
