Beautiful Black Women: Tessa Thompson Covers The Cut Fall Fashion 2018 Issue

Yes, you will see plenty of fabulous fall fashion in The Cut’s new journal; however, the real meat and potatoes lies in their cover story. What do they talk about with Thompson? The Cut let’s us in on the goods by revealing,

“‘The internet makes everything a ‘thing.’ ‘ Tessa Mae Thompson is our Fall Fashion cover star. The enigmatic actress opens up about her high school playist; catfishing people with her friends; and yes, Janelle Monae. Plus, the most voluminous fall clothes.

The Tessa Thompson discourse lately has been loud and demanding. But the interest in her reached a frenzy when she appeared in Janelle Monae’s video, ‘Pynk.’ She told us, ‘The truth is Janelle and I are both in a space where we’re trying to push boundaries in terms of the idea of what space a woman of color can occupy.'”

Need a date? Well, if you’re Tessa Thompson the last place to look for one would be online. In the latest edition of The Cut Tessa reveals why she admires Greta Garbo, and why she’s skeptical of online dating. In an excerpt from her exclusive with the magazine she states,

“‘I currently don’t have time to date. Also, because dating right now requires that somebody gets on a plane. Which is fine, but that’s a lot to ask when you’re first… It’s a lot of expectation.’

She’s skeptical of online dating; though she admits to once catfishing people with her friends on a dating app; largely as a social experiment. ‘It didn’t go well. We had some passive-aggressive and some just like aggressive messages, being, like, ‘You’re not real!’ And I was like, ‘And you’re right, I’m not!’ Delete.'”

So as you can see, even celebs are adjusting to the new world and whirl of dating. Nonetheless, catch Thompson’s full interview as well as The Cut’s Fall Fashion preview in their spanking new issue out now.
