I watched a tiring seven minute long video on MSN today about the Vogue magazine cover. I learned a few things, Vogue has been around for over 100 years, that LeBron James is the first black man to grace the cover and there were only 4 black women prior to him. The cover is controversial now due to the fact that some people, bloggers, are comparing the image to a King Kong photo of a gorilla holding a damsel in distress.

So that whole business with LeBron James and the King Kongish photo with the beautiful super model Gisele on the cover of Vogue is completely asinine. The argument of the bloggers out there is that the image just caters to the stereotypes against blacks. Pfft, who thinks about that when they look at the cover of a very famous athlete and a beautiful woman? He is simply doing what he does best, holding a beautiful woman, dribbling a basketball and showing some excitement. So for those out there who think otherwise you sound completely ignorant. Have a nice day.

Love the photo Vogue, A+ LeBron and Gisele.
