Gisele and LeBron James Controversial Vogue Cover
The April issue of Vogue with Gisele Bundchen and LeBron James on the cover is reportedly being criticized for being racist. Critics charge that the photo may perpetuate racial stereotypes, depicting LeBron as a savage animal. WTF?
LeBron defended the Annie Leibovitz photo:
“It wasn’t a situation we’re being rough or looking mean. Just showing a little emotion. We had a few looks, and that was the best one we had … Everything my name is on is going to be criticized in a good way or bad way. Who cares what anyone says?”
It looks like a fun photo to me, however, Gisele looks a little strange. She’s almost unrecognizable.

That does not look like Gisele, and I see nothing wrong with that cover. People are looking for trouble all the time. So would all hell break loose if they put Giselle on the cover with a white, Canadian hockey player, dressed in full gear? It’s a fact…alot of African Americans dig basketball and alot of white Canadians dig hockey. No biggie. People get bent out of shape over nothing.
