What's a magazine to do when two top models refuse to pose alongside this decade's biggest pop star? Issue a triple cover release, of course. Both Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss refused to pose alongside Lady Gaga for i-D Magazine's September 2010 issue.
Even though it's a shame that not all three ladies were featured together, the turnout is just as sensational. The Lady Gaga i-D Magazine cover is actually toned down for the queen of controversy, but naturally rocks. Be sure to check out the gallery for a better look at the shot.
