Fug the Cover: Maggie Gyllenhaal

Wow. This is….really bad.  Really really awkward and bad. While the contents of Tatler seem kind of interesting — I totally want to read about the Brit Beauty Who Tamed a Hollywood Mogul (I presume they’re talking about Georgina Chapman/Harvey Weinstein), and about superbrats and power partygoers, to the extent that I might actually pop out and pick this issue up — the COVER is an abomination upon the world. Not to get too dramatic about it or anything. I mean, I’m thrilled Maggie G is in the new Batman — every time Katie Holmes showed up in Batman Begins, I thought to myself, “OH RIGHT. Katie Holmes is in this movie” — but I thought it was pretty common knowledge that she wasn’t playing the Joker. Judging from the heinous make-up job here, though, the Tatler Cover Crew did not get that particular memo. Bad form, folks. Bad form indeed.
