I don’t think either one is vogue material this early in there careers.

I think that when it comes to either one of them being on a cover of VOGUE the comparisson just seems to natually arise, and i dont think thats wrong. It just makes sense.
They are both spectucularly beautiful and talented in totally different ways but I think that seeing leighton on the cover of Vogue would make tons more sense than blake, right now at least.

Blake does have a movie coming out next year.

How old are those people saying Blake shouldn’t be on the magazine because Leighton is not on? What’s the logic there? They are two different actresses who happen to play in the same show at the moment, that’s all. They have different careers to pursuit.
These comments only make Blair’s (Leighton’s) fans look as insecure as Blair in the show, no wonder they are fans.

Why does everything Blake does have to be tied to Leighton and vice versa–like it’s a competition? They’re both great girls and Blake just happens to have more mainstream projects going on than Leighton.
I have to say though, Blake is a horrid actress, but I think she has that sparkle that will take her places.
(Leighton is the complete package, imo, and hopefully will be a household name one day, but time will tell.)

“amen, 9:12. she’s a good actress on a hit show that happens to influence the fashion world, like it or not. she should be on the cover of mags. don’t hate.
”
although the show is a influence to the fashion world, it is mostly leighton’s character(Blaire) who girls try to copy. i don’t like serena’s clothing and to me leighton’s a much better actress. also, serenas hair drives me crazy. like can she comb it…please?!

Although I prefer Leighton, I think Both of them are attractive, in different ways. Blake’s more America’s sweetheart all american girl with the long blonde hair. While Leighton’s look is more elegant and classically beautiful.

I’m a blonde as well and Blake annoys the hell out of me. It’s not her acting skills. She just makes this one face on GG all the time whenever she’s supposed to be posing or sexy. It is not sexy and no model would ever make that face.

#10 I’m a blonde and definitely in the Team Leighton camp.
Blake’s ok, but doesn’t really seem worth the hype.

If Izzie is newly hired, she won’t be on the masthead for a while yet – plus a couple of the editors’ actual own PAs (who work for Vogue) aren’t on the masthead.
Anyway, I digress.
I think the issue with Blake is that she’s relatively young, and is on a tv show. Cute show and all with cute clothes, but it’s not exactly ground-breaking and you wouldn’t exactly put her up on the same level as Reese Witherspoon. It’s like if Mischa Barton in her OC heyday was a Vogue cover girl, we’d all be acting the same way. Teen Vogue is fine, but Vogue less so. However I think W can make her look amazing if she’s on their cover.
Though I agree and think it’s a valid point that she gets a lot of people disliking her because it’s just too easy to like her.

Vogue did put Britney on a cover in 2001 so I guess anyone can be a Vogue girl. AW is one of my personal heros but I feel like that magazine is becoming less and less relevant, interesting, or inspiring. The magazine feels old and her editorial staff seem a tad out of touch with the world beyond the NYC socialite scene. I hate how celebrity driven fashion is now. Models on the cover please! Let Elle stick the celebs on the cover and Vogue can put models on the cover. I just want the vogue back from my childhood that was magical, inspiring, interesting, smart, amazing, and beautiful.
Did anyone else find a strange similarity between the Elle cover with J.Lo (Oct.) and the Vogue with Reese (Nov.)? I noticed that they were very similar in a not good way for Vogue.

There aren’t any fashion assistants named Izzie at Vogue, so it’s either a nickname or she’s Meredith’s PA.

Guest #9 – I wondered if it was a split along hair color lines – blondes like Blake and brunettes like Leighton.
