Harper’s Bazaar December 2009 Issue Featuring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart Wins Cover Of The Year

HARPER’S BAZAAR’S TWILIGHT COVER NAMED BEST MAGAZINE COVER OF THE YEAR IN ASME’S BEST COVER CONTEST, HOSTED BY AMAZON.COM
CHICAGO, Octo­ber 4, 2010 — 

The cover of the Decem­ber 2009 issue of Harper’s Bazaar, fea­tur­ing the lead actors of the hit movie fran­chise Twi­light, was cho­sen by Amazon.com cus­tomers as “Cover of the Year.” This is the sec­ond year that Amazon.com has hosted the Amer­i­can Soci­ety of Mag­a­zine Edi­tors (ASME) Best Cover Con­test, and the fifth year that ASME has pre­sented the awards. The announce­ment was made today by Larry Hack­ett, ASME pres­i­dent and man­ag­ing edi­tor, Peo­ple, at the Amer­i­can Mag­a­zine Conference cur­rently under­way in Chicago, Ill.

Twelve cat­e­gory win­ners, cho­sen by Amazon.com cus­tomers dur­ing the first round of pub­lic vot­ing, com­peted for the “Cover of the Year” honor. The Harper’s Bazaar cover, which won the “Best Vam­pire” cat­e­gory before it was cho­sen “Cover of the Year,” depicts Twi­light stars Kris­ten Stew­art and Robert Pat­tin­son in a rare shot together. While the epic image played on the idea of courtship, it was given extra heat due to their real-life romance.
