Hot! The Weeknd Shines on the Cover of Harper’s Bazaar September Issue

Canadian singer, songwriter and record producer The Weeknd alongside top modelsAdriana Lima and Irina Shayk feature on this slick cover for Harper’s Bazaar September issue.

The magazine’s cover story this month features some other fashion and musical talents including renowned singer Courtney Love for their #BAZAARIcons edition.

According to the magazine, the pop superstar is quite press shy and only agreed to an interview via email. We have all come to know and love him through his lyrics and Instagram pictures but he talks about the disparity between his lyrical and real-life personas:

On preserving his mystique as an A-lister he said:

Luckily, the only thing the world demands of me is music. I don’t have to give them anything else for the rest of my life.
