Seventeen Puts Boy On Cover

At Hearst Magazines’ 30 Days of Fashion launch event and charity auction last Thursday, Atoosa Rubenstein revealed some big news for her magazine. For the first time in over five years, Seventeen is putting a guy on its November cover, singer Teddy Geiger. The mellow musician, who just turned 18, is apparently taking his new status in stride. “It’s his first cover,” Rubenstein said. “I think it’s a little surreal for him.”

Perhaps that Sementeen concept isn’t such a bad idea.
