Olivia Rodrigo for Cosmopolitan in Tom Ford and Chanel. Shot in LA just before she turned in her album. Olivia’s closest confidant (and a Columbia University creative writing graduate) Madison Hu wrote beautifully about this moment in her life, and Liv and I made a vision board together for a new YouTube series.
This is her first in-depth press since announcing YSPSFAGSIL, and the first time in Cosmo’s 60 year history that all 19 global editions have united around one cover star.
Grateful to my team for the many late nights and long calls, and to Olivia for trusting us with this next chapter. I’m soooooooo excited about the Summer issue !!!!!!!!! 🤸💗
Earlier this year, I went to Puerto Rico to understand the global phenomenon that is Young Miko. We ate at Lala, drank whiskey, and talked for hours. She’s hot off a global Gap campaign and a Super Bowl appearance, and new music is on the way. I learned a lot. About her family. Her values. The secret beaches and best gay bars of Puerto Rico. Thank you Miko for showing us around the island and bringing Cosmo home with you.
“The Love Issue” featuring Macaulay Culkin & Brenda Song. This is the first time a romantic couple has ever been on the cover of Cosmo…. & my first cover as EIC.
Hits stands on Valentine’s Day. 📰❤️
