Minnie Driver

Minnie Driver Instagram – It’s #friday . That apparently means feeling positive about the weekend, so galvanised enough to look back without feeling like anything is lost. I remember being told I wasn’t ‘Vogue material’ back when fashion editors still felt empowered to tell you what you were. Cosmopolitan had no such query. Whatever stereotype I was cast in though, back then, being on the cover of a magazine did an extraordinary thing to my psyche, it both exalted the idea of worthiness through physical beauty and at the same time made me feel like a slouching imposter; because I knew what was really going on inside. Today, I can’t believe how pretty this girl is and how un-pretty she felt at the time. I’m wolf- whistling at all of her from afar. 💘
And because there was no way of thanking you at the time: thank you @cosmopolitan #covergirl | Posted on 20/Sep/2024 15:08:31
