The Flare Magazine June 2014 cover shoot is arguably just as hot as the Vogue issue starring Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. It stars Ellen Page, who recently revealed to her fans that she is a lesbian. Clad in a dressier version of her signature androgynous look, she poses in front of the camera in a mellow way, which has also become synonymous with her out-of-the-limelight personality.
Shot by photographer Nino Muñoz, the Flare Magazine June 2014 cover shoot was styled by Samantha McMillen, who pulled chic letterman jackets, blazers and booties for the Canadian actress to wear. In the accompanying article, she says about coming out, “The more time went by, the more something just happened, an Oh my god—I want to love someone freely and walk down the street and hold my girl- friend’s hand.”
