I think Anna Wintour is doing a better job of putting the Vulcan death grip on people who leak the covers of Vogue, because usually we don’t get this far into the month without seeing the following month’s Vogue cover. But here you go – EMMA STONE!! Her first Vogue cover! Isn’t it exciting? Isn’t she incredibly deserving of a Vogue cover? Just think – Blake Lively has already had two covers. Jennifer Lawrence has had ZERO. So… it’s always nice to see Vogue celebrating some fresh, young talent.
You know I adore Emma – I think she’s classy and beautiful and really one of the great hopes for the future of Hollywood. But I liked her better as a redhead. This blonde is too… something. Go back to the ginge, girl! But other than her hair, I really like this cover. I’m glad that they went with such a beautiful shot for the cover. I can’t wait to see the photo shoot.
Incidentally, I heard this the other day – guess who Anna Wintour selected for The September Issue? LADY GAGA. Ugh. Why is Wintour so obsessed with Gaga? This will only be Gaga’s second American Vogue cover, but it feels like she’s already done it a half-dozen times. You know why? Because Gaga over-saturates the fashion-magazine market. Let her sit out a year, you know?
Anyway, back to Emma. Here are some cute photos of Emma and her boyfriend Andrew Garfield arriving in Tokyo a few days ago, and at LAX last week.

I feel bad for her! Everyone talks smack about the blonde hair…but that is her NATURAL color! I think she is gorgeous, but in the cover photo she looks a bit harsh and intense. I think the eye make up could have been soften quite a bit.

I think she just looks more distinctive with darker hair. She still looks beautiful with blonde hair, but more like an everyday starlet. With darker hair she looks more striking.

Totally agree. They shopped her skin tone to work with the blonde hair among other things.

My reaction exactly. I wouldn’t have known it was her. She is beautiful as is, so I don’t know why they would change her face so dramatically. It’s sick.

EXACTLY. Nothing “gorgeous and perfect” about this photoshop catastrophe. Terrible.
It actuall made me think of the PS’d cover form yesterday’s posts about Michelle Williams. They look very similar in these two cover shots, which they do not at all in real life. This photo looks NOTHING like the gorge Emma Stone.

It really says something about the magazine’s and our expectations of actors and models. Clearly, they’re interchangeable for one another. I’ve kind of had it with the degree of digital alteration that happens. I like Emma Stone, so it stands to reason that I would want to see Emma Stone, not some strange digital approximation of her.

Oh, that was the exact thing that came into my mind too when I saw the cover!
She looks so much like Lindsay in circa 2008:

Really? I think Andrew Garfield is a very attractive guy. It may be because I’ve seen him in interviews, and he’s very humble, polite, and has a sexy british accent =) Just look at how he’s holding her and sort of protecting her in the pics. They make a very cute couple!

Unconventionally attractive… like Ryan Gosling. I don’t find him attractive at all in images (don’t crucify me please! I just didn’t happen to get a sip of that Kool-Aid). However, Ryan Gosling in motion is definitely attractive.

I agree. Emma is the type of actress I would have liked a lot more when I was 13. She’s funny, beautiful and talented. However, the praise that surrounds her grates my nerves. I hate when the populace jump on an actor for having ticks and mannerism but praise another whose mannerisms are just as glaring. To me her acting is no different than Kristen Stewart or Jesse Eisenberg. However, (like Eisenberg) she lucked out by not having her fame associated with a book series that make people rage. /random rant

Either way, I’d like to ask the editors of Vogue… Exactly who is that computer generated person on your cover and what have you done with Emma Stone?

Also, can Anna Wintour hand over the reins to someone with a less, I don’t universal worldview? By which I mean that one woman’s (kind of dull) vision for fashion gets distributed and amplified. I’m just plain tired of her shtick and wish that Grace Coddington was at the helm! Things would be a lot more fun, a lot less skeletal…

She’s a very cute girl, but that is photo shopped and not just good makeup/lighting. In contrast, the Revlon ads look like Emma and are minimally photo shopped. I love the Revlon ads, not this. Look at a photo of her on the red carpet and then look at this cover. Her eyes look significantly wider on this cover, her nose more defined, and her lips bigger. Her whole jawline just looks off, as in much softer. She has a heart shaped face, a softer version of Reese Witherspoon’s face. However, in this cover they completely did away with it and gave her an oval face. It’s so dumb, because she’s a pretty girl, and they just turned her into this generic blonde chick.

Agree nev and with all the criticisms of the photoshopping; a photoshopped cover is not a great cover, its a fake cover; in addition, i’m old school (true fashionistas would agree), i don’t want to see starlets on fashion mags – these ridic photoshopped covers aren’t fashion or beautiful – the covers a generation ago with beauties like linda evangilista or yasmeen ghauri – before photoshop mind you – blow away this travesty. The likes of Emma stone are insignificant to those legendary glamazons. But since anne wintour has turned vogue into a marketing device for hollywood this is what we get.

Emma looks lovely (a bit overshopped, but what can ya do?) but what has me caught is the Gaga thing.
I could have SWORN that on the Oprah special she was claiming that would be the last time for a very very LONG time that she (Gaga) would be interviewed. That she had been completely overwhelmed, was tired of her instead of her music being the story and she was going into media hiding.
And yeah, here it is:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/19/lady-gaga-oprah-interview_n_1362775.html

How the hell does one get a Vogue cover while refusing to do any and all interviews? And when did “A couple of months, if that” count as a long term media blackout?
It was too good to hope for I suppose…

No, and I love Emma. Emma is a natural blonde, but this shade of blonde just looks cheap and bleachy to me. They also photoshopped the hell out of her…that’s not just makeup. They made her eyes wider, her face softer, and messed with her nose. WTF. She’s a very cute girl, and they made her look like a completely different person. The bleached hair plus the heavy black eyeliner plus the nightgown makes her look high class trashy. I also agree with people she needs to stick to comedy. She’s a good comedic actress, but isn’t as strong when it comes to anything that is slightly dramatic.

Emma Stone’s natural hair color is blonde… this article makes it sound like it is a pretty light blonde too, so I think the color she went to may be pretty close to her natural blonde.

I agree that she looks better with red, but part of that may be because we are so used to seeing her with red hair… and part because there are so many FAKE blonde celebrities so she looks like so many others… that isn’t her fault though.

As a blonde she beomes so basic, so girl in the 2nd row. However as red head she pops out of the crowd.

I wish they would put models back on (US) Vogue’s covers again instead of celebrities. Emma is a great improvement compared to J.Lo or Blake Lively but I am starting to feel more and more like vogue is becoming a celebrity magazine instead of the “fashion bible.” But I suppose I should read Vogue Italia instead if I’m looking for that, then. Just too bad I don’t know Italian
.
Anyways, Emma is way too photoshopped! She usually looks so much better I think, and I wish she’d go back to red.

You’re not alone in that wish anne; vogue has become Variety East – one reason I believe there has been this shift over the last 10 yrs. is that conglomerates now own/have a hand in hollywood/publishing/fashion and everything is marketing. Also, fashion mags have lost confidence in fashion, and have sold out to just plain old cult of junk celebrity. Fashion does require at least some minimum standards and they’ve thrown those aside. Plus, as you well know, mag sales are declining, and a lot of these editors believe mistakenly that throwing JLO or beyonce on their covers will boost sales, completing forgetting that many of their potential readers don’t want to see these celebutards on their covers when they are everywhere. Just my take from whatI’ve read and observed.
