“Fashion” and lifestyle magazine Vogue put NBA superstar LeBron James on the April 2008 cover with Brazialian supermodel Gisele Bundchen for a peek into the world’s top models and star athletes.

WHAT DO YOU THINK of Vogue’s basketball-supermodel pairing — YAY or NAY?

Noooooo! Be glad it wasn’t Kobe, Tom would have a LOT to worry about then. Overall it’s a bad cover. It looks like she was cut and pasted into the cover . Or is that photoshopped?.

Ok with him, but with Gislut on the cover it should be the STD issue, this chick is looking hargard and used up. Time for the next model.

I like Lebron on the cover but the photo of Giselle looks very odd.
Also, Vogue’s photographer on this cover issue, really sucks!

Any idiot capable of taking photos could have done a way better job then this Vogue photographer. Even the paps!

Love it!! It’s fun. They are both beautiful. Great combo. I’m sure there are more pics inside for those who don’t like the cover!

YIKES!!! BAD CHOICE OF VOGUE!!!

KOBE BRYANT WOULD BE THE BEST CHOICE INSTEAD OF LEBRON JAMES!!!

OH WELL….I’M NOT BUYING VOGUE WITH THAT UGLY COVER!

WHY does Lebron look like KING KONG on the cover of vogue. Unbelievable !!! Shame on you VOGUE………..

Two guys on the cover. Big deal!

I think its demeaning, seeing how african americans are often compared to Monkeys….the whole king kongish theme here just doesn’t fit well…

I think that it’s interesting that the media still promotes the Hong Kong stereotype (i.e Big dark mouth open- they updated it by giving him a basketball- wind blown hair damsal in distress look in the arms of kong). I guess as long as there is someone willing to be used why not?

would have been pretty cool if lebron was dressed in some flashier sports gear and holding gisele in his arms in a ’superman saves lois lane’ pose, whilst gisele is shown with a laughing face.

I hope Tom Brady is not mad!

Nay, They look awkward together.

laylo31 @ 03/14/2008 at 1:27 pm

I think it was a good concept to place a model and a basketball start together but this is not a good picture of the two of them. Lebron looks like he is about to explode from yelling or something and the model looks like she is off balance and about to fall. She really looks uncomfortable but faking it with a smile on her face. Good Idea, but bad pic to choose for the cover is my comment.

It looks off balance…neither of them look like they are on the right cover…one looks like it should be on sports illustrated-and the other-who the heck even knows…what a bad way to pose them….

Giselle could have wore anything to nothing and will be fierce. Lebron on the other hand, I would have loved to seen him out of his work attire and in something with a lot of swagger to compliment his athletic build.

Hello

He is such a handsome guy, but this picture is horrible. It looks like too much is going on. they should have picked a better dress for her. you can not appreciate her beautiful figure. He looks awful!!! I hope Vogue reconsiders!

CAROLYN @ 03/14/2008 at 1:39 pm

WELL MY FIRST GLIMPSE OF THE COVER I WAS LIKE ” ARE YOU SERIOUS”! I REALLY DON’T LIKE IT. JUST THNIK ABOUT WHEN YOU TAKE A PICTURE AND YOUR MOUTH IS OPEN, EVERYONE ALWAYS SAYS DAMN THATS UGLY MY MOUTHS OPEN!!! HIS FACE LOOKS UGLY AND HE IS A VERY HANDSOME GUY! I’M DISAPPOINTED THEY DON’T EVEN MATCH. THERE IS NO THEME. HE’S A BASKETBALL PLAYER AND SHES A MODEL BUT NO CLASHING BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT WORLDS. THEY SHOULD HAVE GISELE DRESSES UP IN ATHLETIC GEAR AND JAMES ALL MODELED OUT! THAT IS BETTER. AND HAVE HER WITH HER MOUTH ALL OPEN!!!

I love it! I love that for once vogue doesn’t have your typical tall gorgeous “perfect” model on the cover alone. It brings more attention to vogue having James on the cover w/Gisele… it shows that vogue’s up for new changes/taking chances. This was a very risky chance for Vogue to not only put a male on the cover but, for it to be a Star athlete. I think they did a WONDERFUL job! I LOVE IT! Although, I’d really like to see James dressed up all GQ and maybe a better pose from BOTH of them BUT, GREAT IDEA VOGUE! GOOD JOB!

erin - march madness is for college ball genius, duh erin.
laurie - are you kidding me, ugliest model ever ? you are high.

I like this cover. I think its creative and a much needed change over the same Vogue covers month after month.

Lebron is the man no matter what it looks like!!! All of you are just jealous because he is the greatest at what he does. Lebron is the man and he’s the biggest celebrity there is! For being 22 he sure does got everything he wants, you all are just hatin. GO CAVS

Pete @ 03/14/2008 at 1:57 pm

NO NO NO… OPEN mouth - not attractive

Giselle - terrible position against LeBron ! The editor of this shot
should be fired ! Terrible terrible concept to put on cover.

Oh… btw… really don’t like it !

Sherry Paris @ 03/14/2008 at 1:59 pm

NO WAY!!!! terrible picture of her or she was not feeln’ her job this day. she was not into the LeBron spirit or something. Hope she wasnt paid much for the gig. Tyra’s next top models could have done better than her. no shape, bad colors, her look as far as her and the photographer makn her hair wild is just awful. Sorry Vogue but that was terrible. Hope you re-do this with a more deserving model who likes her job and show our DUDE OFF as he deserves. the other 2 male models had good photo shots. why can’t he. find someone else to clown on. aka BLU$H

Rick James @ 03/14/2008 at 1:59 pm

Some of you people are RETARDS!!! Lebron James is the MAN. You all are hatin because he has taken over the NBA and taken over the U.S. He can’t be stopped and will be the first athlete billionaire like he says he wants to because he can do whatever he wants. And thsat person that said Lebron is on steroids or whatever, you gotta be kiddin me, in high school he was damn near just as big!
