Best Magazine Covers
Rolling Stone's cover of John Lennon and Yoko Ono was titled the top magazine cover to
appear since the year 1965. The image was shot by popular celebrity portraitist Annie
Leibovitz, hours before Lennon was shot on December 8, 1980. The photo never made the next issue, due to how controversial it was, however the photo was finally
used on the cover of Rolling Stone's
tribute issue to Lennon on January 22, 1981. This was revolutionary because they way he is positioned in such a foetal position, this represents how innocent and fragile he is as an artist, reflecting how he is also human which sometimes we don't think about. The simplicity of this cover really helps highlight the meaning behind photo.
The Dixie Chicks appear naked on this magazine cover of Entertainment Weekly with phrases such as, "Boycott," "Traitors," "Hero," and "Proud Americans," written on their bodies. Two months earlier, member Natalie Maines criticized the imminent attack on Iraq by President George Bush at a gig in London. This statement sparked intense criticism from many Americans who subsequently boycotted The Dixie Chicks music and concerts. In their conference with Entertainment Weekly, the group discussed their reaction to the criticism and what may be in the future for them in the country music industry. This magazine cover is considered so great due to how the girls, stood up for themselves after criticism and its controversial side.
