<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><span style="font-size: large;">There was a little controversy with the June 2014 covers of Vogue magazine. Some thought that <a href="http://www.vogue.es/"><span style="color: blue;">Vogue Espana</span></a>'s cover featuring <b>Real Madrid</b>'s <b>Cristiano Ronaldo</b> naked and with pubic stubble in view, posing behind girlfriend <b>Irina Shayk</b> was both inappropriate and redolent of the <b>Kim Kardashion Kanye West</b> cover that was bothersome to so many around the world. In it's defense at least Irina is an esteemed model, and Ronaldo <i>is</i> sporting some Vogue appropriate, fiercely manicured brows.</span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.vogue.co.uk/"><span style="color: blue;">Vogue UK</span></a> took some heat too with Kate Upton on the cover.
