Worst Magazine Covers: The Gallery of Lame - Gawker

They left Scarlett Johansson's Esquire cover off the list- the one that looked like she needed to go to the toilet. I love the Matt Dillon one, thats always a good way of flipping the bird! I dont know who's on the Vogue cover but thats one awful photo....

Ha, the Matt Dillon one shouldn't be on the list, it's awesome!

Britney's cover is georgous and some where made before photoshop was discovered so that's not fair.

Britney's cover just seems... misplaced for some reason. I don't object to the nude and/or pregnant body; there's just something about the way the breast-grasping, wind-blown, grinning, big jewelry and skin converge that just doesn't work. Remove any one of the above and the picture improves greatly, I think.

I actually like the Kanye cover; love the look in his eye. I remember thinking the Jenny McCarthey cover was cute at the time, and the Vogue covers are nothing unusual for their times. If anything, theses covers display seriously dated concepts and inexperience with or overuse of photoshop.

We had to take the Britney nekkid and knocked up one out of the waiting room because patients were complaining..

But I kinda like the Jenny one. She's never been one for subtle hints and I'm alright with that. I love folks with a sense of humor enough to sent themselves up.

We're talking about 70/80/90 year olds who probably grew up when showing anything more than your ankle was a no-no. That isn't the only magazine we've had to pull from the waiting room for flesh shown because of complaints, it was just the one that got the most complaints.

I quite liked the Madonna one, actually. But I am a tacky 80's throwback like that.
