Forum members were quick to voice their sheer dismay. Handbag Queen wasn’t even willing to accept another Jennifer cover. “It’s as if there were only five celebrities in this world. Same celebrities month after month. Zzzzzzz!” she commented.
“Whoa, this is simply shocking! You have Sorrenti, and this is what we get? A blurred, out of zoom, too closely cropped cover image? Not to mention she can photograph 100 times better than this, sigh! I have seen red carpet shots of her that would have made for a better cover!” Miss Dalloway expressed straight away.
“I’m not sure what is more surprising, the idea of Jennifer and Sorrenti for American Bazaar, or how weak the result ended up. Even with an esteemed photographer they still fail to get it right. It looks like a botched cut-and-paste job done in haste. Let’s hope the newsstand cover will be better,” added Benn98 prior to the regular cover being unveiled (below).
Creative wasn’t much of an admirer, either, describing the cover as “awful.”
“Another low for Glenda [Bailey] at Bazaar. It’s almost embarrassing when you realize that the U.K. edition also had a white background and a beautiful girl [Daria Werbowy] on the cover. The results are disturbing,” slammed a shocked Lola701.
