Vanity Fair catches flak for all-male Hollywood Issue
Share this @internewscast.com


This year’s Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue highlights a surprising focus on male stars, sparking curiosity about the absence of women on its covers.

While the cover story for the magazine’s 32nd annual edition, titled “Let’s Hear It For the Boys!: Our New Class of Leading Men,” was written by female author Ottessa Moshfegh, the featured covers are exclusively adorned by millennial male actors.

Jeremy Allen White, A$AP Rocky, Glen Powell, LaKeith Stanfield and Callum Turner are on one cover, while the second features all Brits — Riz Ahmed, Jonathan Bailey, Harris Dickinson and Andrew Garfield.

The third features a handsome trio, with Irish actor Paul Mescal on one side of “Sinners” star and Emmy nominee Michael B. Jordan, and Oscar nom Austin Butler on the other.

On Instagram, the magazine shared posts for each cover, which quickly drew attention for their lack of female representation, prompting a buzz among followers.

One Instagram user questioned the decision with, “Wait, it’s all guys this year? Oh ok,” in response to the first cover reveal.

Another commenter asked, “What about the leading women?” when viewing the second cover.

In a dry tone, someone else remarked, “Love that the Hollywood issue is all men. Classic.”

A fourth person called out that not only are the covers lacking women, they also don’t feature any Latin actors.

Both Powell and Bailey were previously featured on the cover of 2024’s Hollywood Issue, which, by comparison, also starred Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Nicole Kidman, Zoe Saldaña, Dev Patel, and Blackpink’s Lisa.

The latest Hollywood Issue comes after signature staffers lost their jobs in the summer, as Vogue’s former creative editorial director Mark Guiducci took over as Vanity Fair’s global editorial director and decided to enact a “new editorial strategy.”
