NewsWeek Cover

All I have to say is, Really Newsweek? Really? O_o

The cover story, If she were here now... She would 50 if she were alive today, and the graphic artists aged her to 50 and photoshopped her to this image with Kate Middleton.. 
Newsweek is supposed to be a respectable magazine, like TIME, how do they go out and do something like this, how is her family supposed to feel about looking at this image being toyed around with like that years after her death  just sell a mag,plain creepy.
 plus That neck, I would just Sue! They should let this woman, rest in peace.. 

Editor-in-Chief Tina Brown has been on the defensive, making an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” to explain.

“Some people think it’s kind of spooky, and should we have done it?” Brown said. “And, you know, others think it’s very effective.”

Brown continued: “I found it really interesting to imagine what she would be doing now.  ... She loved being in the limelight, but she also would’ve really sort of professionalized all that humanitarian giving that she was doing.”



Ps Heres The Cover Story...I still think this was an awful idea.


Diana would have been 50 this month. What would she have been like? Still great-looking: that’s a given. Her mother, Frances Shand Kydd, with her cornflower-blue eyes and striding sexuality, was a handsome woman to the very end. Fashionwise, Diana would have gone the J.Crew and Galliano route à la Michelle Obama, always knowing how to mix the casual with the glam. There is no doubt she would have kept her chin taut with strategic Botox shots and her bare arms buff from the gym. Remarriage? At least two, I suspect, on both sides of the Atlantic. Always so professional herself, she would have soon grown exasperated with Dodi Al-Fayed’s hopeless unreliability. After the breakup I see her moving to her favorite city, New York, spending a few cocooned years safely married to a super-rich hedge-fund guy who could provide her with what she called “all the toys”: the plane, the private island, the security detail. Gliding sleekly into her 40s, her romantic taste would have moved to men of power over boys of play. She’d have tired of the hedge-fund guy and drifted into undercover trysts with someone more exciting—a high-mindedly horny late-night talk-show host, or a globe-trotting French finance wizard destined for the Élysée Palace. I suspect she would have retained a weakness for men in uniform, and a yen for dashing Muslim men.
