American fashion magazine Vogue is the talk of the town for covering the Barbadian singer Rihanna and the Nobel prize laureate Malala Yousafzai in its June and July editions as observers believe the magazine is buckling down to tease right-wingers in South Asia.
The singer, actress, and fashion designer Rihanna in past remained vocal about the heated debates in South Asia including the farmers’ protest in India and Kashmir issue.
The fashion mogul succored for the farmers in a post on Twitter who were protesting in India against agricultural reforms.

Apart from this, the star also stood up against brutalities in the Indian Occupied and Jammu and Kashmir (IOJK).
Similarly, right-wingers in Pakistan are displeased with Malala Yousafzai and she has been known as a controversial figure in her homeland.
The woman has been labeled as a spy and an ‘agent of the West’ multiple times by the newspapers and social media.
Despite being a polarizing figure in Pakistan, Malala found her feet as a female education activist globally who strongly advocates anti-Taliban school of thought in northern Pakistan.
Vogue covered two bold and audacious women, Rihanna and Malala, who vigorously stood against the social injustice in South Asian countries and somehow poked mullock at the right-wingers in the region.
Rihanna starred in Vogue Italia Do It Yourself edition and was in charge of styling and photography for it.
On the other hand, Vogue unveiled Malala as the magazine’s July edition star in a striking red Stella McCartney dress with the words “The extraordinary life of Malala. Survivor, activist, legend” at the bottom.
