Amal Clooney's First Vogue Cover: 5 Things People Are Loving About Her Front Page Debut

'They didn't say something stupid like she was just George's wife or just a fashion icon.'

Vogue magazine has revealed human rights lawyer, Amal Clooney, is their cover star for their upcoming May issue.

The internationally-acclaimed humanitarian used her front-page debut as an opportunity to discuss everything from her career to politics, and becoming a mother to twins, Ella and Alexander, in June last year.

But the interview is not short on fashion either: photographed by Annie Leibovitz at her marital home in Sonning, England, Clooney’s wardrobe features outfits from Rosetta Getty, Oscar de la Renta and Johanna Ortiz.

Here are the 5 things people are loving about the interview.

1. The lack of George Clooney on the cover.

CAN WE JUST commend Vogue for highlighting the fact that she is a lawyer and activist and didn't say something stupid like she was JUST George's wife or JUST a fashion icon. She's a BOSS ASS WOMAN. https://t.co/6ASd2hqesw

2. The celebration of Amal’s academic achievements.

Is this the most intellectually accomplished woman ever to make the cover of Vogue? https://t.co/ti8N8MYGK2

3. The acknowledgement Amal’s life didn’t begin when she came a celebrity.

I one day aspire to have anybody write about me with the lede "She was a woman with a fully realized adult life..."
