Vanessa Paradis covers the French issue of Marie Claire in September. Here is the cover. Vanessa looks beautiful in a lace bodysuit. The actress sat down with the magazine before her split from partner Johnny Depp.

This month, Vanessa also appears in Haper’s Bazaar. The interview was also done prior to her breakup. In the interview, she opens up about love and more.

On the eve of her breakup with Johnny Depp, actress and singer Vanessa Paradis opens up about her new role—in love and work, in an interview for Harper’s Bazaar’s September issue, on newsstands August 21.

On love: “Love is the strongest and most fragile thing we have in life,” says Paradis, 39. “Nothing is ever for sure, but when something in love doesn’t work from the beginning, it’s never going to work. Don’t push it.”

“When you meet the love of your life, it’s just obvious and natural and easier,” she says. But, she adds, “you keep learning all the time. Sometimes you could be in an unhappy relationship; you are very much in love with someone, but it’s making you unhappy and you think things can change and you can work it out.”

On fame: “I was for sure not prepared for fame when it happened,” Paradis recalls of her precipitous rise. “But nobody pushed me to do it. I wanted to sing, to dance, to work.”

On aging: She says she doesn’t plan on plastic surgery. “I don’t work in America, so I don’t feel the pressure.”

On dating: “Well, my type is obviously creative,” she says, with a quick smile. “Creative, with burning eyes and a pretty mouth.”

Rumor has it the two are working on a reconciliation. I really hope that’s the case, I loved them together.

Miranda Kerr poses completely nude in the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar (which features Gwen Stefani on the cover). Miranda posed for the magazine wearing only a pair of boots!

Even though the Victoria’s Secret model appears nude in the magazine, she still opened up about her fashion faves. Miranda, who’s married to Orlando Bloom, also opened up about diet and staying balanced.

On her style icons: ”I have always admired Audrey Hepburn’s style and my Nan has always been a style icon for me. Growing up I would play in her wardrobe and was very influenced by her. She taught me that you don’t need to have a lot of money to have style. It’s the way you put things together and how you carry yourself.”

On her diet philosophy: ”I live by the philosophy that beauty starts from within and I make a conscious effort to fill my body with nutrients through the food I eat. Becoming a mother has made me even more aware and more passionate about nutrition and wellness. So much so that I am now a certified health coach practitioner. I love when we are all together as a family and I can cook really healthy, delicious meals for them. Most of my childhood was spent outdoors climbing trees, swimming in the river, riding dirt bikes and horses and I would like Flynn to experience all of those things.”

On her taste for adventure: ”I definitely still love motorbikes; however, since having Flynn I haven’t been riding these days. A lot of my adventures come from chasing Flynn around and watching him grow.”

On staying balanced: ”I believe in having a vision for the future but living each day at a time. Time seems to slow down for me when I focus on staying in the moment and that helps me maintain a sense of balance. When I’m with Flynn my phone is switched off and I stay away from my laptop. It means the time I do spend with him is quality time. Life seems to be busy for most people and if you know you are doing the best you can then there really is nothing more you can do than that.”

Maxim Magazine named Bar Refaeli #1 on their Hot 100 List recently, and now she graces the cover of their September issue.

I’ve always thought she was absolutely stunning, especially in the years she dated Leonardo DiCaprio. She’s looking incredibly beautiful these days, and she looks hot in these pictures!

Here’s some from the interview:

Her favorite body part: “My stomach is hard, and I’m very proud of it. I still eat, though. To me that’s one of the best things in life.”

On Being #1 of the Hot 100: “I think it’s the title I’m going to be most proud of until I die. When I’m older, I’m going to walk around and say, ‘Hey, I’m Bar Refaeli. I was No. 1 Most Beautiful in Maxim!’ It’s an honor you never want to forget.”

Guys are (weirdly) asking her out now: “I’ve started getting letters at myhouse and DVDs of people asking me out. What I mean to say is that guys aren’t actually talking to me.”

But she still doesn’t get dates: “I think part of the reason is that I’m not out much. I’m usually at a photo shoot or going to sleep early. I don’t really have a chance to meet people other than businessmen on planes. They’re all married and much older, though.”

She likes teeth on a guy: “I don’t want to generalize, but let’s just say that with today’s orthodontists, I don’t understand why people wouldn’t fix them. A nice smile with beautiful teeth is the most attractive thing.”

Don’t be too cool: “If someone is funny, he should say something funny. If someone is sweet and gentle, he should talk that way. Just be yourself. Like, the other day, I was at the airport, and there was a cute guy who I saw notice me. But instead of coming up next to me, he put his head down and started texting to appear like, ‘Oh, didn’t even see you!’ I was like, if you really were cool, you’d just be yourself and talk to me.”

I always find it interesting when I hear beautiful women complain about not getting hit on, or asked out. And it’s something you hear often, actually. Imagine how intimidating it must be for a guy to ask out someone like Bar! Who wants to be the guy she dates AFTER Leonardo DiCaprio?

Blake Lively is absolutely stunning, always has been. I don’t know about you, but when someone is as gorgeous as Blake, I like to imagine that they 1) hate their lives, 2) mo’ money mo’ problems, 3) starve themselves and 4) spend all their free time sweating at the gym. Apparently none of these things are true, as Blake admits she doesn’t work out at all, and has been “very, very lucky”. Bitch.

Blake sat down with the British magazine More, promoting her new movie ‘Savages’. Here are some clips:

Blake on her insecurities: “I have insecurities like any girl. I used to be really shy and unconfident. I hated being tall. Walking the red carpet is so scary, so I pretend to be Marilyn Monroe – someone who owned their sexuality and projected this incredible aura of self-confidence.”

Style pressure: “There’s a lot of pressure to constantly find the best designer outfits. As a teenager, my mum was constantly after me to dress better. She encouraged me to dress up and discover my own style. I love fashion and shopping though, just like any girl.”

She still claims she doesn’t exercise: “I don’t exercise, but I will start one day. I’m 24 now, so I guess I’ve been very, very lucky that it doesn’t show that I like to eat. I should probably start working out I guess!”

What she looks for in a man: “When I look for a partner there has to be a strong connection. He needs to be my best friend, whether he’s macho or sensitive – it doesn’t matter. He also has to make me laugh. I enjoy someone who’s a lot of fun to be with. He also needs to be kind, patient, caring and not take himself too seriously. And of course, he needs to appreciate my cooking! I’m very domestic.”

She thinks cooking is sexy: “I really like to cook. Cooking makes me feel sexy. I think there’s something so sensual about it – the smells, the touches, the flavours, the experience of creating something,” she explained. “And you know, when you’re doing it with someone you love, creating that together, I think it’s really attractive.”

She can’t wait to have babies: “I want to be a mom someday. I’m upset that my nieces and nephews aren’t my own children,” she sighed. “It’s something I can’t wait for and I’m so excited about.”

I think she’s basically saying she’s ready for boyfriend Ryan Reynolds to put a ring on it. Who wouldn’t be!?

Kristen Wiig is Marie Claire’s August cover girl. She looks gorgeous! The ‘Saturday Night Live’ comedian opens up with the magazine about her humble beginnings, and dreaming for a bigger and better life. ”I wanted to be Justine Bateman,” she says, recalling the slyly appealing sibling on the Michael J. Fox sitcom Family Ties. “She was so cool. Or Lisa Bonet“—The Cosby Show’s resident Bohemian. “I just didn’t think it was an option, coming from a town where people don’t pack their bags and move out to Hollywood.”

Here is more from the interview, which you can read in full here:

Kristen Wiig on trying out for Saturday Night Live in 2005:

Wiig came to New York from Southern California in autumn 2005 to join the cast of Saturday Night Live, bringing with her a handful of impressions (Drew Barrymore, Björk, Jessica Simpson), a few characters she’d developed while with the influential Los Angeles improvisation group The Groundlings, and a secret fear that she’d soon be run out of town on a rail. “I remember being so scared,” she says, “that after I was done with those characters—if they made it on the show—that I wouldn’t have any other ideas.”

Kristen on her boyfriend, Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti:

Not overly inclined toward personal revelation—”I am shyer than most people think”—the 38-year-old Wiig states it plain nonetheless: “I will say that I’m happier than I’ve ever been,” she says, “and I feel very lucky right now.” Why? “Where I am now. Who he is. Those are the two big ones.”

On leaving ‘SNL’:

As we chat, it’s been little more than 100 hours since Wiig’s final show as a cast member on SNL, capping a seven-season run that made her a deeply beloved comedic star. “I know a lot of people probably assume, ‘Oh, she’s leaving because she is going to be doing movies now and things like that,’ which I will be,” she notes. “But I just always knew it was going to be seven and that was it. I think maybe if I were 22, I could see myself staying a little bit, but it just felt like the right time.”

Still, “it was very emotional,” she says, nursing a double-shot cappuccino. “I just wanted to get through it without breaking down in every sketch. Because nothing says comedy like breaking down.”

On her final ‘SNL’ scene, where Mick Jagger serenaded her:

“It was a very surreal moment,” she says. “You have all this stuff going on in your head, like, ‘I can’t believe seven years has gone by, and I’m going to miss all these people.’ And I’m like, ‘Oh, by the way, Mick Jagger is to my right, and I just danced a waltz with him.’ So there’s that.”

I just love her – but I’m so sad to see her leave ‘SNL’. She might have been the only reason I watched the show in the first place. I can’t imagine it without her!! That being said, I can’t wait to see where her career goes from now! ‘Bridesmaids’ is hands down one of my all-time favorite movies. She’s pure genius!

Is Gisele Bundchen pregnant? So far – she’s not saying….but this cover certainly isn’t doing much to dispel the rumors!

The supermodel teased fans again on the new cover of Vogue Brazil, July 2012. In the editorial, Gisele poses with her belly covered in almost every picture – which isn’t like her.

The Gisele pregnancy rumors, which say that the 31-year-old model is pregnant with her second child with husband Tom Brady, began about a month ago with several reports from the Brazilian media. Us Weekly reported the pregnancy as fact in early June, yet cited only an unnamed “source”; neither Gisele nor her reps have yet to comment.

What’s the verdict? Pregnant or not?

Sofia Vergara, who stars on ABC’s ‘Modern Family’, looks stunning in the new Spanish issue of Vanity Fair.

The 39-year-old actress wore a strapless red suit, while holding a cigarette in her right hand.

I think Sofia always looks stunning in print. Her voice drives me absolutely insane. Everytime I see her live – she gets less and less sexy. I know a lot of you would disagree, many think her accent is cute. It’s just way too whiny for me!

But here – she looks stunning! I love her hair shorter like this!
