Allure Magazine insults three-time cover-girl Lauren Conrad, she fires back
Just months after Allure Magazine granted Lauren Conrad her third cover, the editors seriously dissed the fashionista — at least, as far as Lauren is concerned.
In a spread called “Beauty and the Beat” about typecasting, the Allure writers deemed Lauren the epitome of “basic.” They explain of the stereotypical Basic B**ch, “Made famous by Kreayshawn, and viral by YouTube, the Basic woman is remarkably unremarkable. What’s noteworthy about her style is its very plainness. Except to her. She swears those red soled shoes are cutting-edge.”
Allure adds of the Basic B**ch’s favorite things: Essie ballet slipper nail polish, skinny jeans, vanilla-cupcake body milk and a “sausage roll” hairstyle.
After catching wind of the unflattering categorization, Lauren called the magazine out on Twitter…
I definitely just got called a basic b*tch! Haha! Sausage curls!? Really @Allure_magazine? pic.twitter.com/m7CsNqvU0Z

Surprisingly, Allure is yet to attempt an apology. Guess we shouldn’t hold our breath for Lauren’s next cover with them.
