Condé Nast Staffers Picketed Outside Of Anna Wintour’s House

June 9, 2021 / Posted by:

Since 2018, a union representing the workers of The New Yorker, Pitchfork, and Ars Technica has been going through some messy negotiations with parent company Condé Nast. The union is looking to increase wages and job security of copy editors, fact-checkers, and other employees. Talks have stalled, so the union is stepping it up and that means picketing the home of big-name Condé Nast executive, 71-year-old Anna Wintour. On top of being Head Queen of Vogue, Anna is also the worldwide chief content officer for Condé Nast. But sources allege to Page Six that Anna doesn’t have any control over The New Yorker and has nothing to do with unions. So why picket Anna’s house? Duh, optics! Or maybe it was just secretly arranged by André Leon Talley. But he’s not the only one who has it in for Anna, because during the protest, one of her neighbors handed out beverages like the host of a party.

This Year’s Met Gala Is Still Happening And Will Be Held In September

April 12, 2021 / Posted by:

The Met Gala will return this year, like a golden fashion-phoenix from the germ-infested ashes of 2020 (see: above photo). Last year’s event (the theme was “time”) was obviously canceled cuz of the pandemic, and Billy Porter and Vogue’s at-home #MetGalaChallenge on Instagram just wasn’t the same. This year’s theme will be a celebration of American and American designers and will be co-hosted by poet Amanda Gorman and probably Tom Ford (he’s been approached). And no, that shit won’t be the first Monday in May like usual. The event’s been pushed to September 13, in the hopes that the world will be back to “normal” by then.

Anna Wintour Defended The Awful Vogue Cover Of Kamala Harris

January 12, 2021 / Posted by:

Vogue has not had the best track record with Black people recently. Last year, Anna Wintour had to apologize that her magazine wasn’t inclusive and for “hurtful and intolerant” behavior. And most recently, Vice-President Elect, Kamala Harris got shafted by the magazine and they released a print cover (on the right, the digital cover is on the left) featuring Kamala giving us an “I’m constipated and smiling anyway,” pose. Anna got rightfully dragged by her bob, but she won’t accept the criticism. She has an explanation. Anna says she wanted Kamala to look “accessible” and “approachable.” This makes sense to me because Anna was trying to appeal to what she thinks a “regular” person is like. Of course, she thinks peasants look bad.

Anna Wintour Is Getting A Lot Of Shit For Kamala Harris’ First Vogue Cover

January 10, 2021 / Posted by:

Kamala Harris’You’ve got to be fucking kidding me” face says it all.

Soon-to-be Vice President Kamala Harris is the star of Vogue’s February issue, and last night, the cover “leaked” (read: Anna Wintour waved her Cartier-decorated claw at a minion to leak it to generate maximum attention). And at first, some people thought the cover was fake, because it looks like a test shot of Kamala Harris was Photoshopped into the backdrop at a low-budget Bridgerton-themed high school prom. But the cover is real, and it’s reportedly not the picture that Kamala’s team thought would be the cover. So this morning, Anna Wintour is probably raising a crystal goblet full of the blood of an intern to herself for stirring up a little promo drama.

While her fictional soul-sister, Miranda Priestley from The Devil Wears Prada, ran off several men, the real Anna and her husband were actually together for twenty years. Welp, coronavirus just took out another long-standing famous-rich-people couple.

Lizzo Is On The Cover Of Vogue

September 25, 2020 / Posted by:

Lizzo is on the cover of Vogue. Lizzo! Vogue! Lizzo! In the singer’s own words, she is the “first big Black woman on the cover”, which is very big deal. And unlike Melissa McCarthy’s 2013 ELLE cover, Vogue actually let Lizzo show off her waistline and didn’t make her starve herself first? Damn, Tina Knowles and André Leon Talley really must’ve scared the bejesus outta Anna Wintour if she’s celebrating non-white, non-skinny women. 2020: officially opposite year.
