Melania Trump 'astonished' Vogue gave Beyonce the cover and control

Melania Trump appeared “astonished” that pop superstar Beyonce was given carte blanche by Vogue magazine in 2018, according to NBC News.

“Anna (Wintour) gave the September issue of Vogue cover — complete, complete, complete, everything — to Beyoncé,” the first lady was reportedly recorded telling a former friend and aide in July 2018.

Her predecessor Michelle Obama was on the cover of Vogue three times while Barack Obama was in office. Former first lady Hillary Clinton also appeared in the magazine. Melania, who has modeled, has not graced the pages of the popular fashion mag since her husband took office in 2016.

You have not earned our respect nor our trust.

So, no, you will never be on the cover of Vogue magazine nor any other major iconic magazine.

The sooner you leave our lives, the better for all of us.

and also a sex symbol and icon for women of color.

Melania is simply a racist birther who can't imagine a WoC as being viewed as attractive.

Trust me on this one.

You're thinking "In The Wind"

If you wanted a biker magazine with titties, it was In The Wind.



The only other one that comes close is "EasyRiders"

What the fuck? What could Melodrama possibly contribute? Was she wearing her “I don’t care” jacket?

The Press has the ability - some would say "obligation" - to include whoever meets their criteria and to reject anyone who doesn't. Obviously, you're in the latter group.

Beyoncé is a very talented singer and dancer, who's been working hard since the 90s with Destiny's Child, and has always stepped up in all sorts of ways politically and revealed herself to be very smart, pro-active, and well-informed.

Melania...eh, not so much.

Like, does Melania have any chance of understanding the history being referenced in this video?
