The actress warned PRIDE magazine, "Don't get me started on black people being on the cover of big magazines. It's so preposterous ... Literally, people have said to me, 'What have you got against Vogue that you don't want to be on their cover?' And I just laugh. [Vogue] don't feel the need to represent because it doesn't make any sense to them."
