The idea here was the "Alpha List" and here they were... Obviously, when VF isn't speculating about who might be hugely famous someday there's less to discuss in terms of what happened to their careers....

Lots of good things in Vanity Fair's 25th anniversary issue though the title turns 95 this year - you'll have to read editor Graydon Carter's letter for the explanation. Not so excellent is the magazine's anniversary picture sampling of its best covers of the past quarter-century: "A sampling [which] shows how many ways this choice bit of media real estate [the cover] reflects the world around it,"...

There's a long article in the current issue of Vanity Fair about the only blues musician who ever seems to interest glossy magazines and snobbish newspapers, Robert Johnson, centred around what claims to be very possibly a "new" photograph of him. The article is here , and I link to it because my entry on Robert Johnson in The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia was written when the long legal wrangle over who...

Vanity Fair has a lengthy, fascinating article on the travels of Zeke Schein, a guitar aficionado who found a photo purporting to be of B.B. King while trawling eBay one day—and realized that the photo definitely wasn't of King, but may have been a rare shot of famed bluesman Robert Johnson. (There are only two verified photos of Johnson still around today.) The picture led Schein on a two-year journey...

Home Comment at end 30th September, 2008 This Vanity Fair interview, which treats Cherie Blair and her husband as though they are human beings, fallible like the rest of us, not quite alien monstrosities, attracts immediate opprobrium from our virulent press (see Telegraph report). I expect the Vanity Fair writer expected nothing less. She reports to add fuel [...]

Vanity Fair couldn't have asked for better timing with regards to their upcoming feature on CNBC's ("money honey") Maria Bartiromo . Of course, Wall Street bailout aside, what would a profile of a smart, attractive woman be if it didn't include a catfight?! As for their rivalry...The rumors, both women say, have been a little creepy. "There was a point," says Burnett, 'when they were running this...
