I was too excited to hear via Twitter yesterday that my fave Glee girl Amber Riley is one of the featured divas on the cover of Marie Claire. Ever since my Do Skinny Girls Have More Fun? post I've been a steady advocate for this young & fabulous plus-sized actress. She has an amazing sense of style and even won "Best Dressed" on E! Fashion Police earlier this year for her amazing SAG Awards look:
Anyway, all the Glee girls look amazing in the May issue of Marie Claire. It's defintiely my guilty obsession. I may have their entire iTunes album. Maybe...ehh-ehm
I'll be picking up a copy in support. Will you?
she looks like a natural beauty. The blue is so complimenting.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely be buying a copy! I canceled my MC subscription last year - I can't remember when if every they've had an African American cover girl.
ReplyDeleteHecks yeah, I'll be picking up a copy! She looks fabulous and I love that smile!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to snatch up a copy.. this will actually be my first bought issue of MC! LOL
ReplyDeleteI love Amber Riley too, and Mercedes is my fave character on Glee! (Well, Mercedes and Kurt) And I subscribe to MC, so I'll be interested to see which cover I get.
ReplyDeleteOne thing that's interesting is that the headlines on Lea and Dianna's covers are different. Their's is about "rumors! gossip!" Amber's cover talks about how she's comfortable in her body.
So. I think it's awesome that mainstream magazines are embracing different body types, but it's annoying that only Amber's body was called out on the cover because she's so much more than just someone who is "comfortable in her body." She's also an AMAZING singer and actress.
Wow this awesome! Thanks for posting this story, I somehow missed this. Amber is definitely a stunner and I've been digging her style for awhile now. I'm going to have to pick up a copy of the mag in addition to featuring her on the blog. Loves it!
ReplyDeleteShe looks gorgeous! I'm glad they finally gave her a chance to be on the cover after the Lea Michele/Diana Agron scandals. I love Glee, can't wait to tweet with you about it!
ReplyDeleteYes! She looks amazing, I love her character on Glee the most!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Amber Riley. I love that even though she is a curvy girl, she dosent let that crimp her style, and she still rocks and owns everything she wears.
