The Pop Culture Debrief Season Finale: Breaking Down September Issue covers

September is for back-to-school, changing weather, and apparently a LOT of celebrity magazine covers.

For the Season 1 finale of Pop Syllabus, Christiana picks up the September issues and takes us inside their biggest covers and most interesting stories. From Kaia Gerber and Homer Gere on Vogue to Rihanna, Usher, Charli XCX, and a powerful Essence cover celebrating Black women, she explores what these magazines choose to put on their covers, what they leave inside the pages, and what it all says about pop culture right now.
