Magazine Weekend: Amber’s VIBE

I’m glad to come back to Magazine Weekend on MOJ to compliment the work that VIBE magazine put out. If y’all followed the news and my Twitter, you would’ve heard my serious dismay at the magazine folding, and then my excitement into their online mag ventures. But coming out with new issues? I’m not clear on the specifics but I can most definitely say they are coming back with a bang.

Right as their doors closed shut, their Christina Milian and The Dream cover was the last. Admittedly, I was disappointed with the artwork/photography for said cover, but my loyalty ran deeper than that. I also heard that they were about to go overboard for an MJ dedication issue, but never got the chance. The offices were several floors below my job, and it was a bit sad to see the elevator doors open to bare walls instead of larger than life past covers, or see Maino riding upstairs.

But no mas with the reminiscing. My magazine is beyond redemption and back on it’s A game with their Amber Rose photo shoot. I know this is a civilization when we are all too happy to assign fame to people who did nothing to deserve it, but I think this gal has flavor and can rock a dress or whatever else to tongue-wagging results. I also love a woman strong enough to rock a close shaven head (because I sure as hell can’t). That and I have to say I like her modeling gigs, have no interest in her personal life, annnddd…. well who am I to be a hater? Don’t hate, Congratulate!

I feel like in some photos her bronze-y skin, model squint, and red lips are a bit reminiscent of Catherine Zeta Jones, every time I tried to find a picture to match though, I proved myself wrong. Do you think she looks like someone? I can’t shake the feeling that I do…

Lovin’ this shoot? The mag? Check out the site for more great stuff!
