Celebrity Gossip
The Blue-Eyed Devil Wears Prada
We heard that LeBron was going to be the third dude to land on the cover of Vogue so we made it a point to check it out. And lo and behold: Holy King Kong! Why not just replace the basketball with a tiny helicopter, Photoshop an expression of abject terror on Gisele’s face, and call it a day? If that was Tom Brady, they’d have him in a Brioni suit with some Ferragamos on. Open letter to Klanna Wintour: even though it’s rumored you got twisted out by Bob Marley back in the day, lawdamercy, you done fucked up now. Which poses the question: Is it possible to get a non-existent pass revoked?
Listen, Lebron is a grown man capable of making his own decisions and even if he isn’t I believe he has a stylist and one or two advisors seeking his best interest or their daily bread. He should have known that making that cover of Vogue is a big deal and should have gotten real jiggy wit it. Like Jay-Z said “You got to let these crackers know you on they backs”. And how best but on they mag, wit one of they best hoes, superfly like a motherfucker. That how Tom Brady would had done it, and he a white dude. This anit about race or racism, it’s about Lebron James and what he should have done. If it were me and the editor or whoever told me to do some bullshit or that I couldn’t do what I wanted to do, then to hell wit your cover. Man I was who I was before I got here. Keep it real. Just keep it real.
