14 Years Worth of Annie Leibovitz's Cover Photos for Vanity Fair's Annual Hollywood Issue
Hey, guys. I was on Vanity Fair's web site tonight and happened to see a link to this on the front page. Basically, it's a collection of Annie Leibovitz's cover photos for the magazine's Hollywood issue for the last 14 years. I thought that the photos were really interesting and, considering how much Annie is in the news this week because of the Miley Cyrus controversy, I thought it would be a fun late-night post for everyone to be able to see. So, here it is. Enjoy!
V.F.’s Hollywood Issue: The Annie Leibovitz Covers
It all began in 1995 with 10 alluring beauties on a three-page foldout cover. With the current issue—fronted by fresh faces Emily Blunt, Amy Adams, Jessica Biel, and Anne Hathaway—Vanity Fair marks the 14th year of its gigantic annual Hollywood Issue, and thus the 14th year of Annie Leibovitz’s spectacular gatefold covers. These classic photographs capture Tinseltown talent and glamour like nothing else. Here’s a look back at all of them. (The left third of each image is what was visible on the cover before unfolding.)

no but really, she's boring. so very, very boring. she's decent in skill but overrated and i wish conde nast would get off her jock.
Her other work is pretty nice.
also not really. I pretty much hate everything about the way the majority of her work looks
her personal work isn't as great as people pretend either
andi love the last one with SJP, the SATC ep. where her and aiden break up is on right now and it's so great
