EDITOR’S LETTER

A MAGAZINE EDITOR WALKS INTO A BAR. AND THEN…ERM… I’ll find a decent punch line…eventually! I try to be funny, but sometimes only my friends laugh (they’d better). I once opened a speech at an embassy in Kazakhstan with a joke, only to realize that jokes really don’t land when they’re being translated on time delay through headsets. You’ve never heard crickets till you’ve heard Kazakh crickets. KNOCK KNOCK. WHO’S THERE? A MAGAZINE EDITOR…NOPE. Our cover star Kate McKinnon always nails it. Her insightful impressions and delightfully deranged characters are an absolute joy on Saturday Night Live, and she’s leading a generation of funnywomen who demand to be taken seriously. In a world short on joy, humor can be a unifier and a survival tool (see how Anna Akana used comedy to overcome…

Fearlessly Funny

IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN’T MAKE FUNNY? I make everything funny. I talk about disability, religion, the stuff that you’re not supposed to. I’m doing it because it’s personal to me, not just to see if I can. WHY DID YOU CHOOSE STAND-UP? I didn’t see myself on TV. People with disabilities are 20 percent of the U.S. population, but we’re only 2.7 percent of the images onscreen. If you can’t see it, you can’t be it. Comedy is a place for misfits, and I was a misfit. HOW HAVE YOU BEEN SINCE YOUR BREAKOUT TEDTALK IN 2013? I get threatened by people who know where I’m performing. I’m bullied online. But I grew up with hecklers in comedy clubs; you had to deal with them. And for every 100 nasty comments I get,…

RUNWAY INSPO House of Holland HOT POCKETS The micro trend we can’t get enough of: front pockets with extra-special details.

Denim as Resistance Wear: A Brief History

1873 Levi Strauss’s first pair of jeans is an instant hit with factory workers and cowboys. “These democratic beginnings are key to why jeans became the garment of resistance,” says Tracey Panek, historian for Levi’s. 1960s Denim overalls, the uniform of sharecroppers, become a staple at civil rights protests. “It was a visual tool to align their cause with their history,” says Emma McClendon, associate curator at NYC’s The Museum at FIT. early 1970s It’s still frowned upon for women to wear pants to work, a nice restaurant, or even a public library, so when women’s rights protesters march in jeans, “it is radical,” says McClendon. 1989 As the Berlin Wall comes down, German teens sit atop the rubble in—you guessed it—jeans. “The perfect choice because blue jeans were emblematic of freedom during the Cold War,” says…

Denim as Resistance Wear: A Brief History

Alexandra Shipp Won’t Censor Herself

EVEN AFTER STAR TURNS IN THE biopic Straight Outta Compton and coming-of-age story Love, Simon, Alexandra Shipp has been able to stay a little under the radar—a critical darling still able to say whatever she wants on social media. But now the actress, 27, is stepping onto a bigger stage, taking on the role of Storm (originally portrayed by Halle Berry) in the latest installment of the X-Men franchise, out early next year. Shipp knows there will be even more eyes watching her, but she’s committed to being completely unfiltered. Late last year Shipp fired back at critics who felt she was “too light-skinned” to have been cast: “This conversation about Storm is so stupid, I’m out…. If I lose my job to another actress, I hope it’s for her…

Alexandra Shipp Won’t Censor Herself

JUST BEFORE THEY WERE CAST ON NETFLIX’S Queer Eye, the quintet we now know as the Fab Five took a leap of faith. “We started a group text the night before we knew we had the job,” says Antoni Porowski, the series’ resident food and wine expert. “Someone named it Fab Five, which was confident, ambitious, and very delusional.” Turns out the TV gods were listening: Bobby Berk, Karamo Brown, Tan France, Jonathan Van Ness, and Porowski are the reason the makeover of the 2003 makeover series became anything but a tired spin-off. “As Heidi Klum taught us, ‘One day you’re in. And the next day you’re out,’” jokes grooming guru Van Ness. “So for the reaction to be so positive has been so exciting.” “Positive” is an understatement. Queer Eye…

Five Things the Fab Five Want You to Know

1. Bobby can’t read your mind. “I get dozens of pictures a day on Twitter going, ‘What color should I paint my room?’” says the 37-year-old decor whiz, far left. “I don’t know what someone I haven’t met likes, so how can I tell them what color they should paint their room?” On him: Zara blazer. Vince T-shirt. Frame jeans. To Boot New York boots. 2. Tan isn’t the fashion police. “I think that people assume when they meet me that I’m going to judge what they’re wearing,” says the 35-year-old style expert, second from left. “I’m never massively concerned about what somebody is wearing, as long as it makes them feel really good about themselves.” On him: Frame T-shirt.

Beauty Backstage Lessons

GO BEHIND THE SCENES AT Fashion Week and you’ll see where many beauty ideas are born. Once the shows are over and the pros go home, the rest of us get to try those tricks in the real world. This season the looks were ultra DIY-friendly: an upgrade on red lipstick, goof-proof bright eyeshadow, and topknots you can wear to work. Turn the page for all the how-tos. RUST-RED LIPS Trade in your classic crimson. A burnt-red shade flatters all skin tones (seriously) and is basically fall’s answer to summer’s cheerful cherry. To get the earthy richness seen at Cushnie et Ochs, below, and at Jonathan Simkhai, layer multiple shades: Try Maybelline Color Sensational Shaping Lip Liner in Rich Chocolate ($6, target.com, below left) under Maybelline New York Superstay Matte Ink in…

How Comedy Saved My Life

UNTIL THE AGE OF 17, I WAS A HYPER-DRIVEN student: 4.1 GPA, high SAT scores, and way too many extracurriculars. I had a plan to go into the Marine Corps, like my father, and become a veterinarian, which I’d been diligently working toward as long as I could remember. Anyone who knew me could see: I was going places. But by 19 I hadn’t laughed for two years, and my free time read like a DARE program’s worst-case scenario. I was drinking myself into blackouts every night, regularly dropping acid or taking Molly (often alone), smoking up to eight joints a day, and refusing to go to college. I was depressed and dragging myself through a hopeless existence with drugs and alcohol to pass the time. That shift from ambitious student to…

Back to the Fuchsia “Eighties makeup was just more, more, more. Do a lip, do a cheek, do an eye, do it all! Crimp your hair. Put color in it. People looked really killer just going out to dinner,” says Alison Brie, 35, who plays wrestler Ruth Wilder. GLOW’s aesthetic has even changed the way she dresses IRL: “We spend a lot of time in leotards on the show, which has given me greater love for my body. I live in bodysuits and high-waisted jeans now.” Bold Glam “With a red lip you’re sort of trumpeting that you’ve entered the room,” says Betty Gilpin, 32, who plays Debbie Eagan. “You have things to say.

The Beauty of Experimentation

Turner’s Essentials: SOPHIE TURNER IS a natural blond, but in her biggest roles to date—as Sansa Stark on HBO’s Game of Thrones and as Jean Grey in next year’s X-Men: Dark Phoenix—she slays as a redhead. Here the 22-year-old actress and face of Wella Professionals, who’s engaged to DNCE front man Joe Jonas, sounds off on all things hair color and pays homage to her current girl crush, Cardi B. Glamour: Will you try a new hair color once GOT and X-Men wrap? Sophie Turner: I would definitely consider dyeing my hair brunette or something crazier like a bright pink. I’m not sure what mind-state I’ll be in once Game of Thrones ends, so I might want to stay just like Sansa and keep the red. We’ll see! Glamour: You tend to go with…

I’m a Wellness Lurker

LAST NIGHT MY DINNER WAS A SINGLE STRIP OF LEFTOVER chicken katsu, consumed cold, while I stood in the glow of the open fridge. And for dessert: a bowl of fuchsia fruit-flavored cereal called Cheetah Chomps, which I ate in bed. I have the health habits of a can’t-be-bothered college kid, but my Instagram feed tells a different story. I follow Jessamyn Stanley for all the body-positive yoga my heart can handle. I watch Kayla Itsines foam-roll her thighs on a loop. I’m rapt whenever I see tarot cards and crystals in my feed (what does the new moon mean for my emotional state and menstrual cycle?). But I almost never put any of it into practice. As a health editor and writer, I should believe “wellness is life,” as they…

Jackie Aina Is Changing the Beauty Biz, One Product at a Time

WHEN I STARTED MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL in 2009, my goal was never to be an “influencer.” I was in the military, far away from friends and family, and really lonely. The one thing that always made me feel better was makeup. Originally, I think part of me wanted to get on camera to show that not every person who serves their country is rough and rugged. You can be feminine and fight for freedom. So I filmed a few tutorials in my uniform, and the response was crazy. People loved that I wasn’t this out-of-reach makeup artist—just a regular girl. Then, around 2015, I was feeling less excited by my channel and realized that I was trying to be too “professional” instead of showing my true crazy self. And that’s when I…

How I Got My First Laugh

Aparna Nancherla channeled Bollywood. “My cousins, sister, and I made a lo-fi Bollywood movie called Dil Kebab, because dil means ‘heart’ and a kebab is on a skewer. I think we were trying to take down love? We were mostly concerned with needing one dance number, a costume change, and a product placement.” Nancherla stars in Comedy Central’s Corporate. Kathy Griffin helped the shy kid. “There was a boy in my class the kids were hard on. I remember shielding him by making fun of the others. That’s when I realized laughter can get you out of a fucking jam. Laughter can be a way that you can respond to a bully—without punching them. I honed some of my bitch skills at Catholic school.” Griffin is on tour with Kathy Griffin: Laugh Your Head Off. Ali…

Sharon Horgan Is the Realest Mother on TV

BEFORE SHE WAS ONE OF COMEDY’S MOST CULT-loved voices, Sharon Horgan was adrift. After moving to London from a turkey farm in rural Ireland, she waited tables, toiled away at an office job, and even sold bongs to stoners. “A lot of trying and failing,” she recalls of her twenties. “I basically did everything I could possibly do to avoid starting my actual, genuine career.” Then, at 35, she and longtime friend and fellow lackey Dennis Kelly wrote a sitcom all about their professional shortcomings. The raunchy Pulling, which aired on the BBC from 2006 to 2009, was a success—and a wake-up call. “With Pulling I found out that writing about something tragic and sad can be fully hilarious if you look at it from a slightly different angle,” she…

THE WOMEN GIVING LATE-NIGHT NEW LIFE

MUCH HAS BEEN MADE OF THE political tenor dominating the land of late-night talk shows these days. And for good reason: In addition to cracking jokes, hosts are now expected to take a hard stance on the day’s divisive headlines. Unfortunately, with a few notable exceptions, the talent fronting late-night is still white, still male. (Among the top late-night shows we looked at, rarely are more than 30 percent of the writers women; only about 11 percent are people of color.) This means every whistle-blowing monologue or feminist sketch that makes it to air is more than just comedy—it’s a shot across the bow from the underrepresented. To find out what it’s really like in the late-night trenches, Glamour gathered top female writers from six shows to talk about how…

MY FUNNY VALENTINE

“She made it possible for me to do what I do.”RACHEL BLOOM on CAROL BURNETT AS I SAT BACK DOWN AT MY SEAT IN THE BEVERLY HILTON AFTER winning the Golden Globe for best performance by an actress in a television series in 2016, I did what any millennial with a touch of ADHD would do: I checked my email. And the first thing that popped up was a message from Carol Burnett congratulating me. Not to sound ungrateful to the Hollywood Foreign Press, but that moment was my real Golden Globe. A month or two earlier our mutual friend (and my Crazy Ex-Girlfriend costar) Donna Lynne Champlin told me Carol had asked for my email address. My response to her was, “OF COURSE YOU CAN GIVE CAROL FUCKING BURNETT MY EMAIL…

Fatimah Asghar Doesn’t Want to Fit In

I’VE SPENT A LOT OF TIME AT borders, in the space between two countries or two places. Recently, as I stood in the Pakistani consulate, applying for a visa to visit my father’s family, a man stared quizzically at me. “Where’s your husband?” he demanded. I explained that I wasn’t married; I am a woman, alone. “You’re 28? You should be married,” he responded with the same judgment as my aunties’ at family barbecues; then he consulted his supervisors about what to do with me. On another day I might have corrected him, explaining how I don’t need to be with someone to be a full human; or how, because I am queer, my spouse wouldn’t necessarily be a man anyway. But because I needed a visa, I held my…

My Mom Left Me for the Wild Wild Country Cult

WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, IN the late sixties and early seventies, I thought I came from a normal, tight-knit family. My mom, Jill Franklin, and her sister Lois married two brothers: my dad, Ken, and his brother Chet. Dad had been a football player. Mom was a cheerleader. My mom had three babies, and my aunt had three too—each sister giving birth one after the other. Three boys and three girls with the same set of grandparents. We were more like brothers and sisters. Well, by the time I was six, everyone was divorced. Blame it on the copy of Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique my dad gave Mom, or blame it on the era. I was born during the height of radical change and the women’s and sexual-freedom movements. In…

Are Women Afraid to COMPLETE With Each Other?

AT ONE OF MY FIRST JOBS, I was blogging for an entertainment media company but was eager to take on extra script writing. Shortly after I was hired, another female writer came on board. My editors asked us who wanted to take on a new assignment, and I didn’t raise my hand. She landed the gig, and the next one too. Now I realize why I held back—I was afraid our relationship would suffer. Anticipating a rift between us made me avoid competing with her altogether. What I experienced is a real thing. Selin Kesebir, Ph.D., an assistant professor at London Business School, has studied how competition affects women’s relationships. Her team asked women and men to complete a simple typing task with same-gender and with opposite-gender participants and rate how they…

THE NRA WANTS YOU

LAST YEAR Samantha Prier, 31, an engineer in western Iowa with three children, was shopping in the local Target, her kids in tow, when she spied a khaki-clad man following her through the aisles. Security escorted the family to the car. The police were called. In minutes it was over. Prier wasn’t traumatized by the episode; she recounts it cheerily. But for weeks, she told me, she’d seen similar accounts on social media. “I see millions of stories about [crimes] targeting young moms, young women professionals,” Prier says. Experiencing something firsthand, she says, “was the last straw.” She decided to buy a gun. ¶ Prier bought a Ruger LC9 and joined a women-only training class sponsored by Sturm, Ruger & Co., one of the top five gunmakers in the U.S.…

What is your full name, and where does it come from? Christina Maria Aguilera. I’m half Ecuadorian, half Irish. My mom said she named me after a princess. If you could be anyone, who would you be? Wonder Woman. Real people are too complicated for me. I want to kick some ass! What’s the best invention of all time? Social media. It allows you to speak your mind and squash rumors. But it’s also the worst, for so many reasons. What three things would you bring to a desert island? I’d need company, so either my dog or my man, water or wine, and definitely a boat, so I can get the fuck out of there. How do you stand up for what you believe in? You just do it!

I have the health habits of a can’t-be-bothered college kid, but my Instagram feed tells a different story. I follow Jessamyn Stanley for all the body-positive yoga my heart can handle. I watch Kayla Itsines foam-roll her thighs on a loop. I’m rapt whenever I see tarot cards and crystals in my feed (what does the new moon mean for my emotional state and menstrual cycle?). But I almost never put any of it into practice. As a health editor and writer, I should believe “wellness is life,” as…

Jackie Aina Is Changing the Beauty Biz, One Product at a Time

WHEN I STARTED MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL in 2009, my goal was never to be an “influencer.” I was in the military, far away from friends and family, and really lonely. The one thing that always made me feel better was makeup. Originally, I think part of me wanted to get on camera to show that not every person who serves their country is rough and rugged. You can be feminine and fight for freedom. So I filmed a few tutorials in my uniform, and the response was crazy. People loved that I wasn’t this out-of-reach makeup artist—just a regular girl. Then, around 2015, I was feeling less excited by my channel and realized that I was trying to be too “professional” instead of showing my true crazy self. And that’s…

How I Got My First Laugh

Aparna Nancherla channeled Bollywood. “My cousins, sister, and I made a lo-fi Bollywood movie called Dil Kebab, because dil means ‘heart’ and a kebab is on a skewer. I think we were trying to take down love? We were mostly concerned with needing one dance number, a costume change, and a product placement.” Nancherla stars in Comedy Central’s Corporate. Kathy Griffin helped the shy kid. “There was a boy in my class the kids were hard on. I remember shielding him by making fun of the others. That’s when I realized laughter can get you out of a fucking jam. Laughter can be a way that you can respond to a bully—without punching them. I honed some of my bitch skills at Catholic school.” Griffin is on tour with Kathy…

Sharon Horgan Is the Realest Mother on TV

BEFORE SHE WAS ONE OF COMEDY’S MOST CULT-loved voices, Sharon Horgan was adrift. After moving to London from a turkey farm in rural Ireland, she waited tables, toiled away at an office job, and even sold bongs to stoners. “A lot of trying and failing,” she recalls of her twenties. “I basically did everything I could possibly do to avoid starting my actual, genuine career.” Then, at 35, she and longtime friend and fellow lackey Dennis Kelly wrote a sitcom all about their professional shortcomings. The raunchy Pulling, which aired on the BBC from 2006 to 2009, was a success—and a wake-up call. “With Pulling I found out that writing about something tragic and sad can be fully hilarious if you look at it from a slightly different angle,” she…

THE WOMEN GIVING LATE-NIGHT NEW LIFE

MUCH HAS BEEN MADE OF THE political tenor dominating the land of late-night talk shows these days. And for good reason: In addition to cracking jokes, hosts are now expected to take a hard stance on the day’s divisive headlines. Unfortunately, with a few notable exceptions, the talent fronting late-night is still white, still male. (Among the top late-night shows we looked at, rarely are more than 30 percent of the writers women; only about 11 percent are people of color.) This means every whistle-blowing monologue or feminist sketch that makes it to air is more than just comedy—it’s a shot across the bow from the underrepresented. To find out what it’s really like in the late-night trenches, Glamour gathered top female writers from six shows to talk about how…

MY FUNNY VALENTINE

“She made it possible for me to do what I do.”RACHEL BLOOM on CAROL BURNETT AS I SAT BACK DOWN AT MY SEAT IN THE BEVERLY HILTON AFTER winning the Golden Globe for best performance by an actress in a television series in 2016, I did what any millennial with a touch of ADHD would do: I checked my email. And the first thing that popped up was a message from Carol Burnett congratulating me. Not to sound ungrateful to the Hollywood Foreign Press, but that moment was my real Golden Globe. A month or two earlier our mutual friend (and my Crazy Ex-Girlfriend costar) Donna Lynne Champlin told me Carol had asked for my email address. My response to her was, “OF COURSE YOU CAN GIVE CAROL FUCKING BURNETT MY EMAIL…

Fatimah Asghar Doesn’t Want to Fit In

I’VE SPENT A LOT OF TIME AT borders, in the space between two countries or two places. Recently, as I stood in the Pakistani consulate, applying for a visa to visit my father’s family, a man stared quizzically at me. “Where’s your husband?” he demanded. I explained that I wasn’t married; I am a woman, alone. “You’re 28? You should be married,” he responded with the same judgment as my aunties’ at family barbecues; then he consulted his supervisors about what to do with me. On another day I might have corrected him, explaining how I don’t need to be with someone to be a full human; or how, because I am queer, my spouse wouldn’t necessarily be a man anyway. But because I needed a visa, I held my…

My Mom Left Me for the Wild Wild Country Cult

WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, IN the late sixties and early seventies, I thought I came from a normal, tight-knit family. My mom, Jill Franklin, and her sister Lois married two brothers: my dad, Ken, and his brother Chet. Dad had been a football player. Mom was a cheerleader. My mom had three babies, and my aunt had three too—each sister giving birth one after the other. Three boys and three girls with the same set of grandparents. We were more like brothers and sisters. Well, by the time I was six, everyone was divorced. Blame it on the copy of Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique my dad gave Mom, or blame it on the era. I was born during the height of radical change and the women’s and sexual-freedom…

Are Women Afraid to COMPLETE With Each Other?

AT ONE OF MY FIRST JOBS, I was blogging for an entertainment media company but was eager to take on extra script writing. Shortly after I was hired, another female writer came on board. My editors asked us who wanted to take on a new assignment, and I didn’t raise my hand. She landed the gig, and the next one too. Now I realize why I held back—I was afraid our relationship would suffer. Anticipating a rift between us made me avoid competing with her altogether. What I experienced is a real thing. Selin Kesebir, Ph.D., an assistant professor at London Business School, has studied how competition affects women’s relationships. Her team asked women and men to complete a simple typing task with same-gender and with opposite-gender participants and rate…

THE NRA WANTS YOU

LAST YEAR Samantha Prier, 31, an engineer in western Iowa with three children, was shopping in the local Target, her kids in tow, when she spied a khaki-clad man following her through the aisles. Security escorted the family to the car. The police were called. In minutes it was over. Prier wasn’t traumatized by the episode; she recounts it cheerily. But for weeks, she told me, she’d seen similar accounts on social media. “I see millions of stories about [crimes] targeting young moms, young women professionals,” Prier says. Experiencing something firsthand, she says, “was the last straw.” She decided to buy a gun. ¶ Prier bought a Ruger LC9 and joined a women-only training class sponsored by Sturm, Ruger & Co., one of the top five gunmakers in the U.S.…

the BIG QUESTIONS

What is your full name, and where does it come from? Christina Maria Aguilera. I’m half Ecuadorian, half Irish. My mom said she named me after a princess. If you could be anyone, who would you be? Wonder Woman. Real people are too complicated for me. I want to kick some ass! What’s the best invention of all time? Social media. It allows you to speak your mind and squash rumors. But it’s also the worst, for so many reasons. What three things would you bring to a desert island? I’d need company, so either my dog or my man, water or wine, and definitely a boat, so I can get the fuck out of there. How do you stand up for what you believe in? You just do it!…
