Hollywood's
leading ladies have gathered to bring some serious star power to Vanity Fair's
2016 Hollywood issue, I think these is meant to dash the race issues that has
engulfed this year’s Academy Awards
This year's
Best Actress Academy Award contenders Cate Blanchett, Jennifer Lawrence, Brie
Larson, Charlotte Rampling and Saoirse Ronan all take centre stage in the
stunning spread, shot by revered photographer Annie Leibovitz.
The women
all dressed in black for the 22nd edition of the publication's annual
Tinseltown special.
A host of
Hollywood stars have posed for the cover of Vanity Fair's Hollywood issue.
(L-R) Jane Fonda, Cate Blanchett, Viola Davis, Jennifer Lawrence, Charlotte
Rampling, Brie Larsen (bottom), Rachel Weisz, Lupita Nyong'o, Alicia Vikander,
Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Helen Mirren, Saoirse Ronan, and Diane Keaton
The main
view of the cover - first revealed on Monday on Snapchat - was also occupied by
heavy hitters including Viola Davis and Jane Fonda, as well as the likes of
breakthrough star Alicia Vikander and 2014 Oscars darling Lupita Nyong'o.
Noticeably
the shoot features actresses from a diverse range of ethnic backgrounds
following the race row which has engulfed this year's Academy Awards.
The ceremony
has come under fire from prominent stars such as Will Smith, his wife Jada
Pinkett Smith and director Spike Lee, who have vowed to boycott the ceremony on
February 28th after all 20 nominees in the acting categories were white for a
second year in a row.
