Cover Girl Battle: Mindy Kaling vs. Allison Williams vs. Amy Poehler vs. Zooey Deschanel (Comment to Win!)

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday January 13, 201438 comments


Four power house women graced the cover of Elle for their Women in TV issue. Mindy Kaling (i.e. my soulmate and spirit animal), Allison Williams (of my fave TV show, Girls), Amy Poehler (SO funny) and Zooey Deschanel (a.k.a. my pretend BFF). Each of the covers was so fierce and attention demanding that it seemed only necessary to write about it so I could day dream about the awesome shopping trips Mindy Kaling and I would have. And, I feel it necessary to put them all to the test to see which hot cover was the scorching-ist of all. 

Take a gander through the awesome covers and decide which one you think totally takes the cake. Leave a comment below with your answer and you'll be entered to win a prize pack worth C$35.00 full of beauty goodies. 


Allison Williams (left) 
 
Allison is smokin' in this cover. She usually doesn't do such a sexy look so it's cool to see her in something smouldering. My only complaint? This dress works on her uber thin frame but put it on anyone else and you've got a totally trashy situation. 

Amy Poehler (right)

I love a lady in a suit. I like Amy in a suit because it shows off the fact that she's both a serious business woman and crazy hot. I'm not totally on board with the wind swept hair happening but she's lookin' gooooddddd. 


Mindy Kaling (left)

There was some controversy surrounding this cover. Mindy was the only woman of colour and the only one in black and white and the only one who had only her face shown. Rumours swirled about the magazine doing this on purpose to 'hide' her skintone or her body. Mindy has since given the cover her seal of approval, so I choose to believe that the mag chose it for the sheer awesomeness of this power stare she's giving. 

Zooey Deschanel (right)


I like Zooey a lot as a personality, but this cover doesn't seem to show it. She looks a bit lifeless to me. I don't love the dress, but on her it does look good. Her makeup and hair and excellent - I love the edginess. Overall, a little bland. I think she could have werked it a little more for the camera.  

What do you think of these covers? Which lady wins the crown? Let us know with a comment and you could win!

I like Amy Poehlers because it is the most animated with the most character and personality shining through. Everyone else looks great but with little personality coming through.

Don't even know who Mindy and Allison are... but Mindy is my pick. Her face is gorgeous! Amy Poehler is the hottest I have ever seen her though... props for that!

I really like the Allison Williams cover, she looks very sexy even though she is not revealing too much skin. Also she is not so famous, so you have to stop and think who she is for a second.

While I am a big fan of Amy Poehler, her pose looks a little forced and her clothing is too boring for a cover. Maybe is the suit was colored, it would have looked better. The cover has to attract people and color is a big part of it.

The other two covers were ok, nothing really special. I am not a big fan of them and they didn't catch my eye.

I would definitely give Mindy the win here (with Amy a close 2nd). Even before I read your commentary my very first thought was "why is she (a woman of colour) in black/white? and why are they not showing her body?" It did seem like there was a message/agenda there. Mindy is gorgeous! What would there be to be ashamed of? JMO.
