Say hello to the first Magazine cover with a 2017 date on it.
Felicity Jones is the cover girl for Glamour Magazine UK January 2017 issue and it looks promising.
I love this magazine cover. The up close shot is a beauty, and the hair and makeup looks amazing as well. I also like what she has on, it looks very colourful and pretty.
I have read excerpts of Felicity Jones’ interview on Glamour Website and I think this would be a fab read. Felicity chatted about her thoughts on feminism and equal pay, her Star Wars role and everything else in between.
Here are some quotes for your reading pleasure:
Felicity on… being a feminist:
“I’ve always been a feminist, and what I love in my work is being able to explore a full-sided woman and not patronise her. Particularly with Jyn, it’s such a rare opportunity to be able to play a female who’s not just thinking about romantic relationships.”
I like the fact that she is a feminist. Her interview sounds very honest.
Felicity on… equal pay:
“I want to be paid fairly for the work that I’m doing. That’s what every woman around the world wants. We want to be paid on parity with a man in a similar position. And I think it’s important to talk about it… It’s brave of those women to come forward and make a point about it. Now younger actresses will have a confidence in those discussions with their agents and be able to say, “Can we make sure that I’m being paid the right amount for the work that I’m doing?””
I would never understand why anyone would think to pay men more money over women for the same job just because they are men. It makes no sense to me but it happens. I like the fact that more women are speaking about this equality pay issue.
There is also a bonus special edition cover for January 2017, featuring Joe Wicks – social media health and fitness guru –
I really like this cover as well. I would love to read about building a multi-million pound business.
I like the fact that Glamour is raising the bar very high by starting 2017 with 2 amazing magazine covers. I can’t wait to see what the other British magazines would come with now.
What do you think of both covers? Will you be buying this issue? What are your thoughts on the equality pay issue?
Sound off in the comment section please.
I definitely will! I’m lucky enough that I work in a female-lead environment so the issue of equal pay isn’t something I’ve experienced myself, but I definitely believe your gender should have NOTHING to do with your salary. Nothing!
I agree Elodie.
I love Joe Wicks, I think what he’s doing with The Body Coach is fantastic!
Ah nice. Thanks Lianne.
That dress/top she has on is absolutely beautiful and although I don’t know much about her, the interview sounds like it’d be very interesting and well worth a read x x
Yea I bet it is..
Love both covers big time, 2017 looks real promising indeed
Yea it does.
I totally agree that Felicity looks fablous on the cover , right from the hair , makeup and outfit.
Yea she does…
I love both covers, they both look great x
Yes they do x
Joe Wick looks amazing and it is nice to see a man on the front for a change x
Yea it is Rachel x
I adore Felicity Jones’ hair cut and the outfit on the cover. I worked at so called high-end retailers such as fine jewellery stores and European fashion brands for the last 6 and a half years and my biggest issue is not about the equality pay – although the pay was pretty equal – it’s about women don’t respect other women… I experienced and witnessed so much jealousy; bitchiness between women… For me, it’s a much bigger issue!

I understand what you mea Vivienne. The bitchiness can be unreal sometimes. That is another major problem x
I love Felicity Jones such a brilliant actress and Joe Wicks is such a success! My friend met him!
Oh nice..
