Breaking News: Condi AND Oprah Make Vanity Fair's Best Dressed List

Power Suit

Shock to end all shocks - there are two sisters and two brothers on the Best Dressed List in Vanity Fair's September Style Issue. For the mathematically challenged among us, that's a total of four negroes. Yay!

Condoleeza Rice is a best dressed woman, despite her best effort not to be included (wearing that confounded page boy hairdo). The honor has also been bestowed on Oprah, who in one year has compensated for a lifetime of fashion sins. Big ups to VF for putting Queen Rania of Jordan in their Hall of Fame. She is remarkably beautiful and always looks smashing.

Oswald Boateng (House of Boateng, Bravo) and Kanye West rep the dudes, appearing on the list with the likes of David Beckham (who, btw, looks sooo hawt), George Clooney, and Anderson Cooper. Kanye was his usual big-headed self. He believes that his occupation is to "be Kanye." And his favorite quote? "I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal." Ron Burgundy, Anchorman. Idiot.

We're a little pissed about the quality of the article. The layout wasn't great, and the photos of the "best dressed" were unremarkable. We couldn't wait to get our grubby little mitts on the magazine when we read the teaser for the article on the cover. The spread was a letdown. Tisk tisk, VF.

This is no endorsement of Condesleaza...
