Cooper not Vanity Fair’s first cover photo choice?
Page Six dishes…
VANITY Fair is playing hardball with potential cover subjects - if they don’t spill enough beans, they won’t get the cover. For instance, the glossy pulled Natalie Portman - who gave a nice but dull interview - from the cover two months ago in favor of “Desperate Housewives” star Teri Hatcher - who let them in on the bombshell secret she had been sexually molested. Insiders say Nicole Richie was supposed to have the cover this month, but despite confessing about her weight issues and letting a reporter talk to her shrink she refused to discuss her feud with Paris Hilton - so she was replaced on the cover by Anderson Cooper. Other subjects who lost the cover? Vince Vaughn (who supposedly didn’t want to discuss Jennifer Aniston) and Britney Spears (who refused to talk about her problematic marriage). A rep for Vanity Fair said, “We don’t discuss covers.”
I would have preferred to read about the little anorexic from Hollywood.
