Vanity Fair is considering featuring First Lady Melania Trump on the cover of its magazine, a proposal reportedly initiated by global editorial director Mark Guiducci. The prospect has sparked strong opposition among Vanity Fair staff, with some employees threatening to resign if the cover is published. An unnamed editor reportedly told the Daily Mail they would "walk out the motherf**king door" over the decision. This reaction is notable given that other First Ladies have appeared on Vanity Fair covers in the past. The controversy has drawn attention from various media outlets, including Fox & Friends and Sean Hannity, highlighting internal dissent within the magazine over the political implications of featuring Melania Trump, who is associated with the MAGA movement. The situation continues to develop amid ongoing staff outrage.
