Do you feel that this cover lacks color?



(UPH) - Vanity Fair went out on a limb and projected Hollywood's next decade of leading actresses.  But, this feature has left many people feeling slighted due to no women of color.  Personally, I feel that they could have featured Paula Patton, Zoe Saldana, Kerry Washington, Thandie Newton, or even Meagon Good.  C'mon... I would have been satisfied with just one of them on this cover.

Do you feel that this is just a bias opinion of Vanity Fair's staff?  Or, do you feel that this is just a reflection of Hollywood as a whole?

    i think it has more to do with age (besides meagan good, i don't think anyone you named is under 30) and experience (everyone you named has been in the industry for a while, now).

    this cover lacks color b/c of opportunity. young black actors and actresses aren't given opportunities to shine in an array of roles. they get Tyler Perry roles or something like Buppies. Taraji Henson is better known for Baby Boy than her small work on Sister Sister with the late Brittney Murphy. Brittney went on to be a successful actress, but Taraji had to grind it out. besides, everyone knows black hollywood is Atlanta, not Los Angeles
