Black is the New Vogue
By Emil Wilbekin Mar 16, 2009
Beyonce is on the April cover of Vogue magazine. Michelle O was on the March cover. Last year, Italian Vogue published a whole issue dedicated to black women. Then Barack Obama became President of the United States — change is in the air. In the Obama era, black (it seems) is beautiful again. Is black the new Vogue? Check out the other black women who have graced the cover of the “fashion bible” over the years.
Who do you think should be on the cover of Vogue? Tyra Banks, Chanel Iman or Kerry Washington?

wow i love her- she is so talented
go girl!!
No too cute
SHE GOT A UGLY A** DRESS ON LOL
while it’s great that African American women are getting the recognition they deserve,being on the cover of vogue does not define you. Keep shining ladies!
I was listening to the 107.9 on the radio here in Ohio and was listening to Latin A**asin’s show and he said that Beyonce’s breath smells like Do-Do..lol..but anyways, the dress is not flattering at all..
ummm…glad to see a black woman on the cover..sad to see its her..they could have chose someone else…
it’s well deserved, she’s a hard working successful black woman, with a drive like no other.
Final she has become the woman she should have been long ago. No help from Jay-Z,you can see it in her face expression.
Go beyonce! I think that Kerry Waashington should be on the cover because she is a beautiful woman inside and out. Tyra’s been on alot of covers already and i’m tired of seeing her, her age is starting to show.
Who is Chanel Iman?
i think its good that us black women are coming back with such authority. toccara was also on italian vogue and hada spread as well
BLACK IS DEFINATELY BEAUTIFUL
I THINK KERRY WASHINGTON SHOULD BE ON THE COVER
DIG HER
I dont know…or is just me…but every since obama became president..has it been more blacks on tv and in magazines?? i dont know or is it just my imagination???!!
I don’t think change is in the air. These popular “lilly white” magazines are only doing what’s trendy at the moment. Black has and always will be beautiful.
