Interview #554 RIHANNA

Interview is a huge magCulture favourite right now, for its design as much as its content. Launched in 1969 by Andy Warhol, the magazine, nicknamed ‘The Crystal Ball of Pop’, features interviews with celebrities, artists, musicians, and creative thinkers. Its trademark is the celebrity-interviews-celebrity Q&A, matched with brilliant photography, and in embracing this format the current creative team have taken it right back to it roots as an Instagramzine.

Get in line, because Rihanna is here. Her holiness makes for another highly anticipated cover, decked out in her best nun’s habit and interviewed by her former stylist (and Interview’s and editor-in-chief), Mel Ottenberg. Plus Nicholas Galitzine x Anne Hathaway, Moses Sumney x Ayo Edebiri, Lila Moss x Devon Lee, Benny Blanco x Ali Wong and more x more. With this issue, the magazine also bids farewell to art director Kurt Woerpel, whose experimental typography and distinctive covers have been Interview hallmarks for the past six years.
