Fug or Fab the Cover: Dianna Agron

I suppose I can?t quibble too much with how unlike herself Dianna looks, since the cover basically says this issue is an homage to the sixties.

It is still sort of strange to pick a cover subject and then render them unrecognizable to anyone taking a passing glance at the newsstand, but at least ?60s-Dianna looks like Twiggy, which would probably work to make most people do a double-take and then be like, ?Oh, it?s the girl from Glee,? and then somehow during that person?s 20-minute internal monologue about whether any of the changes they make to Glee each season ever actually improve it, that person may find that he or she has ? in a fugue state ? purchased the issue (or shoplifted it, I suppose, but we don?t condone thievery unless it?s of our hearts, ahem, Pacey). The outfit too seems like an appropriately 2011 spin on the ?60s ? which is to say, the ?60s by way of the ?80s and the Ice Capades. And finally,�I have to give props to Nylon for ?Makeup to wake up in,? because even though none of us are supposed to go to bed with full face on, I think we can all admit we?ve done that more than thrice, and possibly always. So at least they?re catering to what a girl really needs, which is almost always ?six glasses of water and a coma,? rather than ?ten minutes in front of the bathroom mirror taking a blurry swipe at her makeup with some Ponds.?

So in sum: I didn?t think I liked this at first, but now I?m wondering if it?s actually thematically effective. As a random cover? Crazy. As the cover of their I Love The ?60s issue? Maybe actually kind of okay.

And the only thing that could logically follow that kind of a milquetoast endorsement is a poll.
