I’m sure you’ve all heard the rumor that J.hud was covering Vogue, well here is the proof. 2007′s IT girl, covers the “Power Issue” of the popular fashion magazine, and the photos were taken at the legendary Apollo Theater in Harlem by Annie Leibovitz. I have to give her props for being one of the few “big” girls to cover this magazine, that is definitely a hard feat to accomplish…
BUT….
Why did they pick that photo as the cover? That was messed up! Not one of these pictures are flattering. WTF was Annie Leibovitz smoking that day?
go jen go
They Need To Change The Cover..Good She Got It..
They Need A Re-Take…And Fast
bey is hurting right now since jen is the new it girl lololololololo im first i have to admit it does feel a lil special being first lololol and second
If they would have hired me to shoot her, I would have done it IN FRONT of the Apollo Theatre and freaked it! But let’s be glad she is in the magazine and has the cover!
Damn, she covering the whole front cover, and it look like she about to eat the words on the page.
They better go get Beyonce and redo dat cover, if they wanna sell.
Wow. You’re an ignorant piece of shit.
U know they irratate me how they try to advertise us in a unflattering way, now u know that girl takes better pictures than that.. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know they had to be more appealing shots in her photo shoot to choose from and they select the one(s) that make her (& black people as a whole) look not so attractive, when that’s clearly not the case.. They need to stop, cause we have peeped their strategy and it’s getting so old and boring now..
@#6 now u know if dey got bey to do that shot her lacefront wud be showin, so that would not work, i think more like the new whitney she is recovering so well lololololl and i agree wiff #7
The one on the piano was the better choice but there were all pretty weak…
Co-sign with #7 but I’ll be getting this issue when it hits newsstands!
I like it! It’s like she’s mocking all her haters(like #6 DATDUDE)! And it’s the spring edition,so I feel the concept!
Yeah, they could have chosen a better shot. Oh well. Jen is on the cover and considering it’s Vogue, that’s an accomplishment in itself. Good for her!
I agree with #7 110%…
I love J.Hud and I’m glad she got the cover…but I’m NOT glad they set her the fyck up with that pic.
She is really doing it big this year. Go Jen
i think she looks aight but i think they could do better
all ya’ll need to stop being so ridiculous. She looks great on the cover and in the pics. The third one shows her singing portraying what we all know, a great singer. Be proud for her, because it’s obvious this is not a 15-min fame campaign for her. She doin it big and gets much props in my book.
First they put the unflattering pictures. Then, they plaster, “Our biggest spring issue,” on the cover. mmmmm smh. Maybe I’m reading too much into it. Either way, I’m extremely happy for Jennifer and all of her success. I will definitely be buying this one when it comes out!
Why play up her bad fault..her mouth is huge. Im happy she is on the cover, but I would have demanded a fierce picture!!
Whooooooooo! Jennifer got the cover. She is doing the damn thing and I love it!
I demand a re-shoot. They pulled a “Vibe” on J. Hud. I know she probably ain’t gonna like these pics either.
Happy birthday to Southern_Gal213!!!
LOL and it’s just “coincidence” that the issue is subtitled OUR BIGGEST SPRING ISSUE EVER.
Hmm….bureaucracy at its best
Actually, I’m glad she got the cover and spread but these pictures are very mediocre…the would have done better taking pictures of her from the red carpet that to publish these… so disappointed.
LMBAO! @ #21, I so agree with #7 the only way we could ever get anything is basically going back to our black minstrel days and staying there. Not I however, America both black and white will give me what I deserve.
def co-sign w/#7 as well… These have to be the most unflattering pictures that I have ever seen of Jennifer… That picture shouldn’t be on the cover of any magazine none the less Vogue… It is like they tried to find the most unflattering pictures they could to make a mockery of her… How could something that was supposed to be such an honor look like such a disgrace???
Black people stop the friggin complaining and analyzing a magazine cover. If they wanted Beyonce on the cover she would’ve EARNED it honestly and not thru the muscle of her rogue pappy.
Go analyze the Katrina situation, poor education, and lack of health care for our people NOT J Hudson who’s blessed beyond her dreams at the moment. So what it reads our Biggest Cover Ever! Do you really think J Hud cares? Stop complaining about foolishness and got off your arses and complain about what really matters in the community!!!
Go J Hudson! Don’t worry about these fools. They’re gonna love you anyway! Blessings runneth over. The cover is a historical. The first AA female SANGER to grace the cover!
I’m still really happy for Jennifer regaurdless, there haven’t been very many of us on the cover so, do your thang girl!
that’s messed up. beyonce put in years with no vacation and can’t get that cover
I agree they could’ve picked better pictures than that. I’m proud of J-Hud though she is doing her thang!!!!
Beyonce can’t have everything, let someone else shine for once. It’s not as if she hasn’t accomplished anything herself. This is Jennifers moment to shine and I am so happy for her. She is beautiful girl, that picture doesn’t show all of her beauty. They half stepped on that.
*I ALSO DEMAND A RE-SHOOT!
*shakes head*
I don’t like it….
P.S…
“Our Biggest Spring Issue Ever”….hope they’re not talking about Jen’s size haahah j/k
She’s getting ALL she can out of these 15 minutes… God for her.
If you all have not heard, Beyonce is suppose to be on the cover of SPORTS ILLUSTRATED!!! Do Your Thang J HUD! I’m Too Proud of You!
It’s nice to see JHud on the cover. Get’em girl!
BOTH OF THEM HAVE SAID PUBLICLY MORE THAN ONCE THEY DONT HAVE BEEF! YALL SO DAMN MESSY! I BET UR LIVES R DUSTY AND FULL OF DRAMA! N E HOW, J HUD LOOKS NICE SHE IS THICK AND REALLY DOES HAVE A NICE BODY SHE PROVES THAT SLIM AINT THE ONLY THANG THATS IN. MY SIS HAS A BOD LIKE THAT AND I AM HAPPY THAT SHE IS GETTIN HER SHINE ON.
didn’t she wear that dress on a next magazine cover
those cant be the pics these got to be outtakes
That the difference between beyonce and the rest she have final say over what picture they can use after a photo shoot. I could take better pics with a camera phone
Go JHud and do your thing! The never have thick sistas on the cover of these fashion mags, so represent.
GOT DAMN SO IT WAS TRUE! :wow:
I’m happy for her, suprised since most were saying they dont put thick girls on the cover, i agree with most this girl takes a damn good picture, i know they were more flattering pics taken from that shoot, the person the chose those pics need to stop it…
I am real mad about that cover! I’m glad she’s on there, but why do they have her looking like a girl who TELLS people she’s a model and then went out and had her mama’s best friend’s, cousin who has a camera, take some pictures.
They were wrong as hell for that, if ANYBODY knows a beautiful picture, it’s Vogue magazine – and you can’t tell me that with all of beautiful pictures I’ve seen of this girl – even when she wasn’t even TRYING (i.e; on the red carpet) that this is the best photo they found to put on the cover.
I PERSONALLY DONT SEE ANYTHING WRONG WIT THESE PICS! SHE DID THE DAMN THING! I SWEAR BLACK FOLKS WILL FIND FAULT WITH EVERY LIL DAMN THING.. LETS KEEP IT MOVING!
I don’t know if I should laugh or cry. I’m happy Vogue featured a full figured woman of color on the cover. Annie doesn’t let people over a size 6 work for her let alone be on the cover of her magazine. Then on the other hand these photo are not very flattering. I am so very disappointed in Vogue choice of photos. They could have done a hell of a lot better then this!!!!
This is great!
@ 37 I don’t know who told you that lie. The photographer works with the editor(s) to pick the final picture. Not the subject.
I’m disappointed in the cover. It could have been better but I’m happy she got it! So many people here just knew she wouldn’t get it. Nice to see she and Vogue proved them wrong.
damn jhud is on da cover, haven’t sold 1 cd that is her own,been 1n 1 movie,& she da cover of vogue,U GO GIRL.it nothing really wrong with those pics,yall make a big deal over nothing[just b/c u no who is have not been on da cover]it’s just a wind fan in front of her.N/W JHUD IS A TRUE DREAMGIRL.
Jen looks great.
i’m happy 4 her but they chose some bad pics. at first i was like wow she really went ahead of bey on this one b/c has yet to grace the cover however bey still wins (unfortunately) b/c when she does grace the cover how much do you wanna bet they will put some good ass shots of her in the mag
I’m glad she got the cover, but she looks A MESS. every single last one of the pictures… is a mess, I’m sorry.
That photographer must’ve gotten scraped up last minute, because they didn’t have to do her like THAT.
I’m not agreeing with the cover so much, but I do like the other two photos. I hope they have more photos of her in the magazine because I want to see more of her. And to the person that said, “Black people stop complaining”…nobody is not complaining…its just that people feel as though that whoever took the photo of her on the cover could of had Hudson pose different. They should of had her do a more sexier pose. And being fans…we have every right to state our opinions. If we don’t like the fucking cover than we don’t like it, but that doesn’t mean we don’t like J-Hud. But regardless of how I feel about the cover, I am still going to support her and buy it. You never know it might have more photos in there. I hope so.
Great feat to get into Vogue! BUT
Why, why did they choose that unflattering pic? I mean my 6 yr old could’ve taken that pic with her Hello Kitty camera. That’s not right.
She looks very pretty..But those pictures do need help.. I honestly dont like them at all..YEah they should have done more polished photos.. WTF?
^ The cover photo is the best one!
^ The cover photo is the best one!
People keeps asking, “why are yall overanalyzing?” If you think we’re overanalyzing, that’s fine; it’s your opinion, and you’re entitiled to it. The main reason I have problems with these pictures, is that for the first time (in a long time) there’s finally have a young, beautiful, full-figured woman on the cover of a major magazine. Instead of posting glamorous pictures (like they would have done for any other model), they trivialize and almost seem to mock Jennifer’s beauty. Yeah, I know, at least she’s on the cover, but it would have been nice if they could shown Jennifer’s true beauty. Just my opinion guys. Don’t start bashing me.
IM happy for jennifer, BUT this is VOUGE, the shit better pictures than this. im SOOO hurt that they chose these pics, Jennifer can take SOME GOOD as pictures, look at GIANT and VANTITY FAIR hollywood issue. IM SO DISAPPOINTED IN VOGUE, and that last pic was a defiante outtake.
I’m so happy for Jennifer. This is really wonderful. Only a handful of black women have grace the cover of Vogue alone. I don’t think the pictures show her complete beauty, but I’m going to focus on the positive and on the fact that she is doing big things and representing well.
*keep*

You hit the nail on the head! I was thinking the same thing. They always have black folks with their mouths all open and shit looking bizarre on the cover of magazines that don’t typically have black women on them but will have someone like Nicole Kidman striking a subtle pose…mouth closed and all.
I’m surprised they didn’t do a pic of her standing by a grill cooking chicken or getting her nails done.
