Selena Gomez Covers Teen Vogue June/July Issue

Written by Violet on May 14, 2011 – 9:11 pm -

Selena Gomez takes the cover of Teen Vogue for the June/July issue and tells the magazine she wants “to be in love.”

“When your heart is broken, you want to hate everything,” the Disney star said. “You want to say, ‘I don’t believe in love; this is ridiculous. It’s not supposed to hurt this much.’”

“But at this moment in my life, I’m at a point where I want to be in love, to give my all and fall head over heels,” Selena told Teen Vogue. “I’m eighteen. I’m not going to marry anybody I’m with, and I know that.”

Gomez understands the risks but says she is ready for the reward.

“The next heartbreak I have, I’m sure I’ll be like, ‘How can I live without this person?’ But I’m still trying to dive in and enjoy it.”

More pics from Sel’s cover are below and a behind the scenes video of her photo shoot. Read more »

Katniss! Jennifer Lawrence Takes Teen Vogue’s May Cover

Written by Violet on April 12, 2011 – 3:06 am -

Jennifer Lawrence ushers in the sunshine in bright eye-popping yellow on the May cover girl for Teen Vogue.

The 20 year-old actress who won the coveted part of Katniss Everdeen in the big screen adaptation of The Hunger Games, spoke to the magazine about landing the role and the fans reactions to her.

“The cool thing about Katniss is that every fan has such a personal relationship with her, and they understand and know her in a singular way,” Jennifer says. “I’m a massive fan too, so I get it.”

Lawrence said Katniss’ strength and edge is tempered with a softness and feels grateful for director Gary Ross & author Suzanne Collins‘ support.

“She’s incredibly powerful, brave, and tough—and yet she has a tenderness and complexity,” Jennifer says. “It was very humbling hearing that Suzanne and Gary feel that I embody those traits.”

Before she gets to work on THG with newly cast costars Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth, Lawrence will be seen this summer as Mystique in X-Men First Class with rumored boyfriend Nicholas Hoult.

This issue of Teen Vogue is on newsstands now.

Robert Pattinson Lists Ava Gardner & Katharine Hepburn As Favorite Actresses

Written by Violet on April 11, 2011 – 3:24 pm -

Robert Pattinson sports some scruff for the cover of France’s Madame Figaro May issue.

The Water For Elephants actor spoke about his love of Marlon Brando, old Hollywood actresses and how Kristen Stewart shares a little in common with Katherine Hepburn.

“From the only three movies with James Dean, I like Giant, with Elizabeth Taylor. But for me, the great icon of the 60s is Marlon Brando, with this kind of internalized rage, this duality between masculinity and hidden tenderness,” he said.

“I’m also a fan of gangster films with James Cagney and Paul Newman, especially Cool Hand Luke. And among actresses, I love Isabelle Huppert, and from the golden age of Hollywood the passionate/fiery Ava Gardner, and the so classy, rough and funny Katharine Hepburn. Kristen Stewart, whose acting I admire, has something Hepburn-like,” Pattinson shared.

He has great taste in movies and actors.

Emma Stone’s Cool Girl Glamour Cover

Written by Violet on March 30, 2011 – 12:02 am -

The Cool Girl Cover of Glamour magazine’s May 2011 issue goes to Emma Stone.

The 22 year-old actress is one of three ready-to-break-big-time actress who grace the front of Glamour. Emma’s counterparts for May are Ashley Greene and Freida Pinto.

Stone shared she has only a vague idea of what she’s looking for in a guy.

“Honestly, I cannot put a finger on it. One guy could do something that I would find deplorable, and [with] another guy I’d find it charming…. It depends on the person,” Emma said.

“The one thing that needs to be there is that indefinable spark of sorts. But I’m 22 years old….I have no idea what I’m talking about.”

The Amazing Spider Man star also told the magazine that while she has to stay in shape, she isn’t one to forgo a sweet treat.

“You’re a human being, you live once and life is wonderful, so eat the damn red velvet cupcake,” Stone said.

Ashley Greene’s Bombshell Glamour Cover

Written by Violet on March 29, 2011 – 11:31 pm -

Ashley Greene is a bombshell, according to Glamour magazine’s May 2011 cover.

The 24 year-old actress is one of three ready-to-break-big-time actress who grace the front of Glamour. Besides Ashley, Emma Stone and Freida Pinto share her cover glory for the month.

Greene shared her philosophy on choosing roles after the Twilight phenomenon is done.

“It is difficult because people look at you as that character,” she said. “I want to play a role of a 24-year-old woman, not 17-year-old girls.”

But she says she’s willing to hold out until she finds something that suits her.

“So I have picked a couple of films like Butter to show that,” Greene shared. “And it’s perfectly fine not to do anything for a year if I don’t find the right thing.”

It all plays into her belief that things have a way of working out.

“I’m a big believer in ’everything happens for a reason,’” Ashley said. “[...]But every time I thought, I’m going to fail, something happened that kept me here.”

Robert Pattinson & Reese Witherspoon Cover EW

Written by Violet on March 24, 2011 – 9:18 pm -

Robert Pattinson and Reese Witherspoon grace this week’s cover of EW magazine and wow! do they look great – especially Rob!

The Twilight star says he’s ready to be able to live a more normal life once the vampire film franchise ends.

“It’s funny how it’s ending in 2012. This is how the world will end. But, um, I don’t know. I think most of people’s recognition is based on the magazines and stuff. All the gossip stories won’t work— they’re always combined with Twilight, so once that’s done and it can’t be combined with the promotion of the film, I think it will end. Because I have an obscenely boring life.”

But there is one thing in particular he really hates – those contact lenses!

“My God, I’ll be glad to see the last of those,” Pattinson says. “I actually want to get some kind of plastic explosive. I want to reanimate them into something so I can kill them. It’s so embarrassing for me — after so many years, it’s still a process every single morning. Everybody else has figured out how to do it, and then there’s two people holding me down because I can’t do it myself.”

In Water For Elephants, no contacts were involved for the 24 year-old but he did have a very romanticized vision of hoping on trains, joining a travelling circus and seeing America like his character does.

“I liked the aspect of living on a train,” the English actor says. “Just that whole frontier thing. It seems to me the definition of America.”

Water for Elephants is based on the novel by Sarah Gruen and will open in theaters on April 22nd.

AnnaSophia Robb Suddenly Surfer Girl

Written by Violet on March 23, 2011 – 9:28 pm -

AnnaSophia Robb has a relaxed vibe for her photo shoot in Foam magazine where she talks about her new movie Soul Surfer.

The 17 year-old actress immersed herself in surfing to portray Bethany Hamilton, the young competitive surfer who was attacked by a shark and lost her arm but never gave up and returned to ride the waves again.

Robb was lucky enough to have Hamilton be her instructor.

“She’s said to me, ‘I’m not a good teacher,’ but she really is!” Robb said. “She’ll mess around with me, and she always pushes me to go for a bigger wave and chastises me if I don’t. I’ve learned so much from her, which I’ll keep with me for the rest of my life. I’ll always know how to catch a wave and keep from getting pounded.”

The film costarring Dennis Quaid, Helen Hunt and Carrie Underwood opens April 8th.

By the way, if you’ve never grabbed a copy of Foam magazine – get one today. It’s one of the few magazines out with a truly unique point of view.

More photos and outtakes from the magazine are under.  Read more »

Vanessa Hudgens Packs A Neon Punch On Nylon Magazine

Written by Violet on March 22, 2011 – 4:54 am -

Vanessa Hudgens gets an injection of neon yellow to her all black biker-chic ensemble on the cover of Nylon magazine’s April 2011 issue.

The 22 year-old star of the upcoming Sucker Punch shares her first impressions of her costar Jena Malone from the flick.

“I remember walking in the very first day, and Jena is stretching her back from side to side, and I remember looking at her like, Damn! Look at the back on that chica!  She was so cut!  I was blown away by her back muscles.  I was like, ‘Okay, I’m a little bit intimidated, I must admit.”

Hudgens goes on to say she’s really pumped about the empowerment message she feels the movie sends to young women:

“My adrenaline was kicking, my energy, my spirits were so high that I literally felt like I had just walked out of a rock concert… When I saw it, I was literally like, Woo, yes!  I can do anything! Yay! Go women!  Like, I feel so empowered.”

Hudgens cover is one of 5 for this month’s Nylon. Her Sucker Punch costars Emily Browing, Jena Malone, Jamie Chung and Abbie Cornish get their own cover shot too.

Nina Dobrev Covers Teen Vogue For April

Written by Violet on March 11, 2011 – 9:20 pm -

Nina Dobrev takes the cover of Teen Vogue for April 2011 issue.

The Vampire Diaries star is currently juggling the roles of vampire Katherine and the human Elena. She confesses to the magazine how tired she is playing two parts on the hit CW show.

“When I signed on to the show, I didn’t know whether I’d be playing both girls,” says Nina. “And while it’s been cool, it’s also exhausting because it’s double the work. You invest so much of your heart and soul and energy into making even one character. It’s like doing two movies at once.”

Dobrev says with her work schedule what it is, she doesn’t have much free time.

“By the time I get home, memorize the next day’s work, brush my teeth, remove all the makeup, and shower to get the blood off . . . And then I have to be back at work in seven hours. I can only do so much.”

But the 22 year-old does have a moment to address the speculation and rumors she is dating her costar, 32 year-old Ian Somerhalder.

“We expected the rumors,” she says. “Like, if I wasn’t dating Ian, I’d be dating Paul [Wesley]. A lot of people who work together end up dating, so it wouldn’t be unusual, but I’ve never dated anyone I’ve worked with.”

There ya have it – sorta.

More photos and a behind the scenes video of Nina are below.  Read more »
