The April issue of the fashion magazine that featured LeBron James and Gisele Bundchen sold only 350,000 copies on newstands.

<p>The April issue of the fashion magazine that featured LeBron James and Gisele Bundchen sold only 350,000 copies on newstands.</p>
<p>According to ABC Rapid Report, that&#8217;s down from the usual 452,000 and is the worst-selling April issue of Vogue since 2001.</p>
<p>Even with all the<a href="http://blogs.bet.com/entertainment/spotlight/are-you-offended/" target="_blank"> hype around the cover</a>, drummed up by <a href="http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=hill/080320" target="_blank">the homie at the Worldwide Leader</a>, the magazine still struggled to sell copies.</p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t a bad attempt on Vouge&#8217;s part to broaden their audience but they alienated their core readers in the process.</p>
<p>Unless you are putting a <a href="http://blogs.bet.com/news/playahater/an-open-letter-to-candace-parker/" target="_blank">Candace Parker </a>or <a href="http://blogs.bet.com/news/playahater/felix-headed-to-beijing/" target="_blank">Allyson Felix</a>, my manhood won&#8217;t allow me to pick up a copy of the magazine.</p>
<p>But, hey, that&#8217;s just me.</p>

<p>Muna Lee (10.85), Torri Edwards (10.89), and Lauryn Williams (10.89) took the top three spots and will be representing the United States in Beijing.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m definitely disappointed,&#8221; Felix said. &#8220;I can&#8217;t get too down; I&#8217;ve still got the 200 to  go. My 100 has come a long way.&#8221;</p>
<p>Felix&#8217;s specialty is the 200 meters, where she earned a silver medal in the 2004 Olympics at the age of 18.</p>
<p>Originally, Felix has plans of running the 200 and 400 meters in the Olympics but had to switch to the 100 because of scheduling conflicts.</p>
