Glow cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

julianne-moore-glow-magazine-coverMoore appears on the cover of the Winter 2014/2015 issue of Glow magazine. She talks about her role model, her nomadic upbringing, and parenting her children.

One of the most important things I tell my children is that content matters. Who you are, what you think, who you are going to become, how you behave, all of those things really add up to being a valuable person. The outside is great, obviously, but it all really does come from within.

Los Angeles Confidential cover

john-legend-chrissy-teigen-la-confidential (2)Legend appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Los Angeles Confidential magazine. He talks about whether he loved his wife from the  moment they met, who inspired his song All of Me, and his childhood.

I was a very precocious kid, so I was very thirsty for learning. I wanted to learn the piano. I wanted to study the encyclopedia. I wanted to do everything. I just wanted to soak up a lot of knowledge.

Porter cover

cate-blanchett-mr-porter-magazineBlanchett appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Porter magazine. She talks about the media, Emma Watson, and being judged by other moms.

You know there’s an extra judgment. You know they’re really observing how you parent. They don’t know that you cram everything in to make space for your kids like any working parent. Playing the lead in a film where you shoot for three months away from home is not an easy thing for me when my children are in school and my husband is running a theater company. They assume you have a nanny and a driver and a chef. Who gives a sh*t whether I do or not? The fact is, I don’t, but you know there is a certain circle of people – and we all get insecure – who then ask, ‘Why can’t she brush her hair?’ You just have to shrug that off.

Women’s Health cover

cohan12f-3-webCohan appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Women’s Health magazine. She talks about how she stays fit, surprising things about her, and actors she admires most.

Tilda Swinton I’ve always just thought is so brave and so inspiring – trailblazing. She doesn’t follow any rules and it doesn’t seem that she adheres to anything in life but what her heart and soul tell her to do. I think that’s just always what I’d like to check in with every day — that that’s how I’m conducting myself and conducting my life.

Vegas cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

beth-behrs-make-us-laugh-write-country-musicBehrs appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Vegas magazine. She talks about travelling, working with Julie Andrews, and her 2 Broke Girls character.

I’ve just begun the journey of songwriting, and still have a lot to learn. But what I love about writing country music is that you’re able to tell a story, which is what you do as an actor as well. It’s super exciting. I’m just trying to learn as much as I can.

Ocean Drive cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

krysten-ritter-ocean-drive-gushes-about-adam-granducielRitter appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Ocean Drive magazine. She talks about her early years, her music, and her boyfriend.

I’ve always dated musicians, even in high school. He’s my favorite artist. He’s incredibly supportive and encouraging. We played guitar together for a bit yesterday before he left on tour. He taught me a scale that I’m going to practice a bunch and try to blow his mind when he gets back.

O magazine interview

In the December issue of O magazine, von Furstenberg discussesDVF and Oprah her first marriage to a prince, her comfort with herself, and the fact that she proposed to her husband, Barry Diller.

One year I didn’t know what to give him for his birthday. And I called him and said, ‘You know, if you want, for your birthday I’ll marry you.

Glamour cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

Nyong’o appears on the December cover of Glamour as one of the magazine’s Women of the Year 2014. Nyong’o discusses winning the Oscar.

I don’t think I will ever be able to really articulate how bizarre it was to hear my name at the Academy Awards. I’d watched in my pajamas the year before! I felt numb — dazed and confused. I remember feeling light — weightless. More like limbo than cloud nine.

DuJour cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

angelina-jolie-directing-brad-pitt-trickyJolie and O’Connell appear on the cover of the Winter 2014/2015 issue of DuJour magazine. She talks about giving up on acting, making By The Sea with Brad Pitt, and making Unbroken with her sons.

In the back of my mind, I wanted to make a film that would help my boys become better men. They know Louie’s story, so I’m able to say to them that it’s not bad to be full of fire—it’s what you choose to do with that fire.

Vogue cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

amy adamsAdams appears on the cover of the December issue of Vogue.  Adams says she had a bit of a meltdown over turning 40 in August.

I was like, “I’m 40 and I still care what people think of me; I still don’t do laundry so I’m always out of things; I’m just not a grown-up at all,” and I had this expectation that I would be by this age. It wasn’t, “Oh, I’m getting old and I’m going to lose something vibrant about myself.” It was more that I was just so disappointed with myself. It’s just awful. Any chance for self-loathing!

Elle Canada cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

hilary-duff-opens-up-on-media-attention-towards-mike-comrie-split (1)Duff appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Elle Canada magazine. She talks about her album, the media attention over her break up, and her show Younger.

I didn’t really mean to. My agent called me and was like, ‘I have a really good show; it’s a Darren Star show and he wants you for it.’ I said: ‘I can’t do that right now. I have Luca, and I definitely can’t move to New York.’ She told me to just read it. It was really, really good…. I either take a break or just slam myself full throttle, so here I am shooting the show and making a record at the same time again.

Harper’s Bazaar cover

carey-mulligan-covers-harpers-bazaar-women-of-the-year-issueMulligan appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Harper’s Bazaar magazine. She talks about acting, being comfortable in her own skin, and other actresses she admires.

I constantly watch people like Marion Cotillard or Cate Blanchett or Kate Winslet. I have a fear of being passive and what I admire about all those actresses is that every choice they make is really strong. Even if they’re playing something very quiet, it’s visceral and bold.

V cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

nicki-minaj-v-magazineMinaj appears on the cover of the Winter 2014/2015 issue of V magazine. She talks about taking risks, her album The Pinkprint, and on influencing women.

I love women who take control, who set standards, and who believe in themselves enough to lead the way in terms of their career. I’ve done that. When I win and when I lose, I take ownership of it, because I really am in charge of what I do. There are a lot of strong male rappers, who’ve influenced me a great deal in terms of my skill, my flow, and my business-savvy side. But at the end of the day, I still want to inspire women.

In Style cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

ariana-grande-december-instyle-coverGrande appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of In Style magazine. She talks about her famous elevator f-bomb story and what she loves for her look.

Polka dots and hair bows – I can’t. Give me a skinny jean, a YSL top, and a cat ear, and we’re good.

Attitude cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

nick-jonas-sex-important-part-healthy-lifeJonas appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Attitude magazine. He talks about his gay fan base, his grooming habits, and sex.

Sex is such an important part of a healthy life, in the sense that it’s such an intrinsic part of who you are. When your sex life is not healthy you resort to other things as an outlet. And in terms of the show, that’s tough to watch.

Marie Claire cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

anna-kendrick-marie-claire-december-2014Kendrick appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Marie Claire magazine. She talks about having her looks scrutinized, her role in Into the Woods, and on taking a short break.

The character is thoughtful and complicated. You see what happens after she marries the prince, when you start to face problems in seemingly perfect situations. The interesting thing about her is she overthinks things, she’s uncertain – we don’t see that in most versions. In a lot of ways, I think it’s this incredibly brave story. She’s neglected and abused her entire life, she finally gets love and it’s not the kind of love she was looking for, and she stands up for herself.

Harper’s Bazaar cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

jennifer-aniston-covers-harpers-bazaarAniston appears on the cover of the December 2014/January 2015 issue of Harper’s Bazaar magazine. She talks about her fiancé, her 40’s, and not holding grudges.

[I’m] a forgiving person.I absolutely am. I think it’s extremely important to forgive. Otherwise it just builds up like toxic waste. There’s nothing worse than holding a grudge. Listen, people can do unforgivable things, but you have to let it go and say, ‘Look, we’re all human beings. We make mistakes.’ To hold any kind of resentment is like taking rat poison and waiting for the rat to die.

Town & Country cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

liv-tyler-covers-town-country-december-2014Tyler appears on the cover of the December 2014/January 2015 issue of Town & Country magazine. She talks about being pregnant, her year, and The Leftovers.

When I heard the premise, I thought, ‘That’s right up my street.’ I’m attracted to things that are a little off. Growing up I was a huge fan of The Twilight Zone, Twin Peaks, and Creepshow – things that don’t provide all the answers. Normally I’d say I’m not a competitive person; I kind of think things happen for a reason. But for the first time in my life I really went for a role.

Allure cover

allison-williams-covers-allure-december-2014Williams appears on the cover of the December 2014 issue of Allure magazine. She talks about the similarities between her and Marnie, her body image, the most offensive thing anyone has said to her.

I cut off my hair twice. It was in high school, and a boy that I had a crush on said, ‘You’ve lost your aura.’ It was, to this day, the most offensive thing anyone’s ever said to me. And it was before extensions were everywhere, and I just had to muscle through it.
