Meryl Streep Covers Vogue

Between Dames Judi and Helen and the mighty Meryl Streep, the landscape for actresses of a certain age has changed completely. No one finds it weird to refer to Dame Helen Mirren as sexy. No one would dare suggest that Meryl wasn't beautiful. And Dame Judi Dench, with her twinkle in her eye and recurring role in James Bond, is certainly as relevant an actress as anyone. And yet all these women are over 60. Yes, what was once retirement age, is now time to simply carry on with one's life, better than ever. And if a Vogue cover isn't testament to that, nothing will be. For the January issue of US Vogue, Meryl Streep graces the cover and looks stunning. I would be very surprised if that didn't boost sales.
Of course the only question that plagues me about this cover is why US Vogue seems to shoot all their covers on the rocks at the sea these days (see last issue with Charlize on the cover - same idea). As long as the cover is strong and beautiful, I don't care the age of the person on it. But this really is a nice surprise. Well played Anna Wintour.
