The other five covers feature Nicki Minaj, Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christine Lagarde and Lin-Manuel Miranda.

 

In an interview with TIME, Priyanka said. “When I was very young a producer said, ‘girls are replaceable.’ I think subconsciously it worked on my mind, and I started picking up parts which were strong. Now 15 years later, I think I’m irreplaceable and the boys are replaceable.”

In the same time period, PC won a People's Choice award, gave away an Oscar and appeared on talk shows hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon.
