Marlene was shot for the cover sporting a white dress. Marlene is currently the Minister for the Social Economy and French Associations.

In 2017, Marlene — a longtime supporter of women’s rights—became the nation’s first-ever minister of gender equality. In this capacity, she was successful in advancing a new sexual harassment legislation that permits men to be fined immediately for harassing, catcalling, or following women on the street.
Elisabeth Borne, the French Prime Minister, and other political allies have criticised her for how she looks. According to a source close to the prime minister, Borne told Marlene Schiappa it “wasn’t appropriate, especially during this period” and pulled her up over the cover.
A political and social crisis has erupted in France as a result of French President Emmanuel Macron’s decision to push through contentious pension changes despite strong public opposition. “The opposition would be an issue in a nation where the president speaks in Pif and his minister in Playboy. The French government is losing its way, Mélenchon wrote on Saturday.
In a tweet on Saturday, Marlene Schiappa addressed her detractors, writing: “Defending the right of women to govern their bodies, that’s everywhere and all the time. Women are autonomous in France. Sincere apologies to the critics and liars. French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin defended Schiappa by referring to her as a “woman of character.”
