Photos
The new issue of Vanity Fair hit newsstands today, featuring its annual Annie “Skid Row” Liebowitz photographed ‘Hollywood Issue.’ This year: up-and-coming young ladies of all races and creeds. Just a glorious rainbow of womanhood. The neat thing about this photo is how INTERESTING everyone looks. Just very cool, very different. Anyway, this week’s Videogum Caption Contest is going to be a lot of fun I’m sure, because there are so many different characters to choose from! And each of them is so unique and different from the others in every way! If you click on the image above, you can see a bigger version of the cover, which will be useful in getting inside your characters’ heads. The winning caption will receive special placement in this week’s Monsters’ Ball, which is a veritable who’s who of Young Videogum.

“We all have pictures of black people in our wallets.”
As far as non-pictorial comments go, this is TBS? Very poignant (That’s how that goes right?) and cannot be topped, but kid, Michael Cera got this shit on John LOCKE (Also, how that goes, yes?).

For a second when I first saw it, I thought it was the same girl In different wigs and poses. And I had no idea who she was.

Nooooo! My streak of being double-post-free is ended! fail.
to be fair, there is a wide range of hair colors and styles in this photo. YAY, DIVERSITY!
And so many different shades of “ironic preppy”!

The Vanity Fair Teen Korner isn’t nearly as funny, nor does it contain any references to Xbox 360, snap bracelets, or rapping at me.

Topher set the camera down, scratched his chin and thought, “Hmmm…who first?”
and the nominee for next “You Can Make It Up” is… that post!

Can I just say I could forgive this photo if Michael Cera had been placed discretely in the background?
Ask and ye shall receive. Nice job!
Fail
Wow, welcome to Monster’s Ball!
Feed the Children.
eeek. yo soy una babosa. sorry for the double post
and if you ladies would just take a quick look to your right you’ll be able to see down the rabbit holes and straight to the briar patch.
Oh cool I saw Lolita once too.
This comment is underrated.

We’ve made serious progress in the last decade, guys. http://www.vanityfair.com/culture/features/2009/11/penelope-cruz-portfolio200911?slide=2#slide=2
The saddest thing is that the only “star” there is Penelope Cruz; the rest is the cast of “Where are they now?” Which leads me to a possible caption:
Spot the star.
One of these lucky girls will be in a second movie!
I’m all for diversity and everything but, seriously, what’s with the ginger?

Better punk? God, Gingers have FEELINGS!! (The soul thing is still questionable).
Woops, lets try again:

Gaaah, FAIL.

Immediately after the picture was taken, the group decided to use their new found wealth and fame for good, collectively pooling together money to donate to Haiti. Evan Rachel Wood’s phone was used to text in the charity donations. There was a typo, and while no money was sent to the Red Cross, Evan Rachel Wood now has 33 Crazy Frog ringtones.
four blondes, three brunettes, and two redheads = diversity

Ah. Didn’t see this joke through my Will.I.Am 3D laser glasses. I “Anthropologize” for the double post (get it? Annie Liebowitz cut and paste these pictures out of an Anthropologie catalogue?).
The Making of Raging Bull
Post-Racial America: We Still Only See White People
Almost too much pale, smoldering intensity for one gatefold magazine cover to contain.
I just wanted to point out that this photo would’ve been a suitable replacement for the cover art on the last
. Except that one had some boys in it. I think.Except that photo was sort of poignant whereas this photo makes me sick.
90 toes, 18 eyes, 9 mouths, and 1 collective dirty feeling for letting that casting director teabag you.
This has nothing to do with anything, but I love it!
Well, they are quite undead looking. Plus I love that cake and will continue to insert it into any topic I think is somewhat relevant.
Is that a hot dog you have there? If so, we are happy to see you.
Do any Videogum photo buffs know what filter it is that Annie uses to make it look like none of her subjects were actually at the same photo shoot together?
I think it’s called “Stopped-giving-a-shit-15-years-ago” brush. Use broad strokes.

comment contest aside, how is zoe saldana not on this list? or is she just not white enough for the cover?
i was thinking the same thing. zoe saldana is in every movie nowadays – and she kills it everytime. i really missed seeing her on this cover.

Vanity Fart. Full pic NSFW? I dunno where you work
I don’t know what’s more shocking: that Perez Hilton is a Videogum commenter or that I routinely laugh at his posts.
Hmm? I was going for petulant outsider who has a permanent marker, their junior high yearbook and the mistaken impression that tearing down others is not only a healthy way to deal with their own insecurities but also sublimates their desperate need to be heard…so?success?
I am giving you an NEA grant to continue your important work. Forever.
29 feels older all the time… I think I only recognize 3 of them! Is there a Fanning in the picture? Is that Dakota on the left? I still feel like Amy Smart is a young new actress…
which one is mandy moore?

I like it. It’s got that “what a cruel world let’s toss ourselves in the abyss” type ambience.

I just thought about this, in all seriousness, wheres the girl from Precious. She was definitely a break out star of 2010. I can’t imagine why they didn’t get in touch with her people.
She was probably just too busy accepting all those acting awards (something none of the actresses pictured had to worry about).
Cast of MTV’s new Icelandic Shore
on a similar note:
“girls I’d totally smoosh”
I believe in Iceland that’s “smøösh”.
Such amazing work on the caption contest by everyone. I have nothing as good to add. Y’all killin’ it.

“8 year olds, Dude. 8 year olds.”
I don’t really have a reason to post this. I just thought this thread needed a picture of a black person, and Tavis Smiley is the best.
I deserved that.
Well. That wasn’t nearly that size when I posted it. Something really doesn’t want any black people on this post.
Better.

Kristen: “I don’t know who any of these other ‘stars’ are, so I’m going to make it obvious that I’m the most famous by taking up the most room.”
DingDong. Woof. White Girls.

“I watched Aviator last night so I want Kristen, Emma, and the dumb girl from Mean Girls to dress up like Katherine Hepburn and pose on a golf course in shorts and… wait who are these other six chicks? I only got three pairs of shorts and Hepburn socks, well I guess we can just give them some bland dresses and we will hide their feet so no one notices their lack of Hepburn socks.”
I believe in Iceland that’s “smøösh”.
Damn, I just got played

Not pictured: Zoe Saldana
I honestly forgot for an hour today that the freshest faces of new hollywood were all white.
what’s a bastille?
Vanity Fair presents a tribute to the 50th anniversary of the Civil Rights Sit-Ins by nine white women.
What does a black woman have to do beyond staring in the biggest movie of all time, a renewal of the biggest Sci-Fi franchise of all time, and being very pretty/thin? Star in a Tyler Perry movie!!!
Zoe Saldana, my love, has once more been deprived of her recognition. Damn you Vanity Fair-skin!

Scoff all you want, Carrie Mulligan (third from the left) is perfect. A+, would marry again, even if in this picture she does look like the slightly rebellious Fräulein of her Hitler youth troop who secretly listens to jazz records but feels ashamed of herself afterwards.
