Laverne Cox Is ‘Cosmopolitan’ Magazine’s First-Ever Transgender Cover Star

Laverne Cox is not playing around in her Cosmo cover.

The actress has made history with her Cosmo South Africa cover by becoming the first trans woman ever to grace the cover of any Cosmopolitan magazine.

The Valentine’s Day-themed issue of the magazine spotlights LGBT issues and features a rainbow masthead. Her one-shoulder bodysuit and blonde locks are everything!

“As a black transgender woman, I’ve often been kept a secret by the men that I’ve dated,” she revealed. “So when my ex-boyfriend introduced me to his dad and invited me to spend Hanukkah with him and his family, it was the most special thing ever.”
