    It's a trick.

    If we're not of the demo to feel sufficiently "aspirationalized" by a standard and previously-repeatedly-seen blond/bland, they think we'll run out and buy them all to collect the set because we might never see it again. #glamourdecember2009cover

    I'm unreasonably annoyed that all these women are sharing this month's cover. Like it's news to me that the women's magazine industry is obnoxious.

    Why can't each of these women have a month all by herself? WHY? #glamourdecember2009cover

    For 2009 season, Serena Williams won 2 Grand Slams & the YEC Title. She won 3 Grand Slam Doubles Championships. She earned over $5.2 million in prize money, breaking the season earnings record. She is 1/2 of the 2nd ranked doubles (but clearly the best) team on the tour. She advanced to the quarterfinals of the French and semi-finals at the US Open. Oh, did I mention she earned over $5.2 million this season?

    Totally not worth a cover of her own, I mean she really didn't even do anything this year. #glamourdecember2009cover

    @History Major: Well. Jessica Simpson broke up with Tony Romo.

    The fact that Ms. Williams bought into a major franchise in a sport other than her own, in addition to the - small - accomplishments you've described here (no RG? no USO? *tsk*), doesn't stand up to that, really ... I mean, what has she done for us lately?

    I would have totally loved to see an individual month devoted to each of these ladies. So, you know what Glamour? I'd like you to nominate 12 amazing women of this caliber (and don't pretend like that's hard) and give them each a month and then declare each year the year of amazing women or something. That would be really cool. Because there's no need for amazing women like Michelle and Amy to be sharing a month. #glamourdecember2009cover

    I'm torn. It's awesome that they found 5 interesting women who aren't rail-thin like most cover models. But then they managed to put most of them in such awkward, uncomfortable poses that they don't really look like themselves. #glamourdecember2009cover

    Because otherwise you might breathe and say something. Everyone knows girls aren't supposed to talk, just to sit there and look pretty. #glamourdecember2009cover

    I would much rather read a magazine with Amy Poehler on the cover. What can Jessica Simpson say that hasn't been said already? I know Jessica sells magazines, but honestly? I skipped her article when I received the mag in the mail a few months ago.

    I'm sure we could come up a list of potential cover models that is much better and more interesting than having the same handful of girls pose over and over again. #glamourdecember2009cover

    Well, you guys, the only two of those women who are under 30 are black and the only blonde woman is like, old enough to have kids! You can't expect them to put people like that on the cover every month! People only want to see skinny blonde 20-somethings.

    You know, this comment started out as an over the top joke, but I suddenly realized everything (except maybe that last sentence) is totally true for Glamour. I feel icky.

    @Zombie Ms. Skittles: My first reaction to seeing all the covers lined up was that it was some kind of readership balkinization. Like they looked at their women of the year ladies, and were like, "Well, sure, sporty women like Serena, and white urban women like Pohler, and young black women relate to Rhianna.... but none of these women has universal appeal. You know, like Sienna Miller. Everyone LOVES Sienna Miller because she's a completely blank slate!" And so they did a bunch of different covers to hedge their bets, because they just can't imagine that any one of them could be liked and admired by a diverse readership. Because they think their readership is stupid. Otherwise, explain "Easy Beauty Tricks! 3-minute Miracles Inside" #glamourdecember2009cover

    I cancelled my subscription to Elle when they featured Jessica Simpson on the cover *yet again*. Drives me crazy when magazines I like use bland cover girls to sell copies, especially when the editorial inside is at odds with the essence of the cover girl (as in the case of Elle, in my opinion) . #glamourdecember2009cover

    @rckoala: My favorite was when Vanity Fair put Jessica Simpson on the cover. Literally the entire cover story was about Jessica "disproving the fat rumors!" I wrote a letter. It didn't get published. I threatened to cancel my subscription. I got another month free. I was pleased. #glamourdecember2009cover

    @rckoala: Jessica Simpson really hasn't done anything successful in years except her shoe line. Sadly, I think chronicling her weight gain and loss (all 10 lbs of it) is what keeps her in the news. That's kind of insane. I mean, at least Taylor Swift is the more relevant and popular version of the blonde country/pop star. Even Britney Spears still tops the charts, even if the continued obsession with her is a little confusing. #glamourdecember2009cover
