Gabourey Sidibe on the cover of V

via Models.com

Perhaps one of the most anticipated magazine issues of the entire year (already!) is the cover of V Magazine’s size issue (which features many, many plus size models). We’ve heard about this for months now (both good and bad), but when last week cover pictures finally surfaced, we couldn’t believe ourselves when we saw, ‘Precious’ star and Golden Globe nominee, Gabourey Sidibe, on the cover. Holy shit! If you haven’t already, you must watch Sdibe’s interview on Conan (below the fold). She’s amazing. The cover is photographed by super, super famous photog team Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. The issue hits stands tomorrow.
