It is disappointing to see that Vanity Fair's Hollywood Class of 2010 contains not a single actress of color. Astounding, really. The Annie Leibovitz-shot cover ranges in "diversity" from brunette to blond, and from 19 to 27-years old. It is not as if there are no up-and-coming Asian, Latina and African-American actresses out there, or actresses older than 27, or actresses with disabilities, or, well, you get the picture.

Gabourey Sidibe, for example, was nominated for an Oscar on Tuesday morning for Best Actress, yet she was not deemed worthy enough to make the cover of Vanity Fair. It boggles the imagination how Freida Pinto could be overlooked. And Kerry Washington, who is coming off tremendous Sundance buzz and rave stage reviews for Race seems, to this blogger, a no-brainer for an up-and-coming Hollywood actress photo shoot. And the editorial staff at that Condé Nast monthly did not find Dania Ramirez cover-worthy? For shame!
