Vanity Fair Unveils Their 2011 Hollywood Issue Cover

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comFebruary 1, 2011 //

Behold, Vanity Fair‘s 17th annual Hollywood Issue cover. Anne Hathaway is front and center of the first gatefold, which is the section you’ll see on newsstands, and she’s surrounded by guy candy Ryan Reynolds, Jake Gyllenhaal, and her Oscars co-host James Franco. Some other things I’m noticing here: Olivia Wilde and Mila Kunis look almost identical thanks to barely-there black dresses and similar hair styling. Also, how cute that Rashida Jones is bottle-feeding that little lion cub. [Oh nice. A tiny bit of diversity! -- Editor] I give big props to VF for including Noomi Rapace, of the Swedish “Girl With The Dragon Tattoo” movies. And that older bartender who’s barely visible? It’s Robert Duvall. Click here to see the image larger, so you can study it in detail, too. Keep reading »

Girls Like Justin Bieber Because He’s Handsome, Y’All

Amelia McDonell-ParryJanuary 4, 2011 //

“Not trying to be arrogant, but if I walked down the street and a girl saw me, she might take a look back because maybe I’m good-looking, right?”

– Justin Bieber on his appeal with tha ladiez in the new issue of Vanity Fair. Whatever, Biebs. I’m 31, I don’t get you and this cover is giving me the pukes. VF is one of those magazines I use mostly for display in my apartment — like, it hides the stack of Us Weekly and Lucky magazines so I can look smart to guests. But this issue won’t exactly have the same effect, will it? Way to defeat the purpose of your magazine, VF! I’m canceling my subscription! [Vanity Fair] Keep reading »

Vanity Fair Shoots A “Thelma & Louise” 20th-Anniversary Spread

Kate Torgovnick/Kate-Book.comDecember 8, 2010 //

That headline probably made you think, “Has it really been 20 years?” But for real, it’s been two decades since “Thelma & Louise” came out. Apparently, stars Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis headed to Florida last week to shoot an anniversary spread for Vanity Fair. We won’t get to see the photos for a few months, but I am crossing my fingers for a naked Brad Pitt cameo. [NY Post] Keep reading »

Susannah BreslinOctober 13, 2010 //

Oh, la-la! Zach Galifianakis donned a retro-pink bikini for the latest issue of Vanity Fair. We swoon at his refusal to manscape and his come-hither gaze. Watch out, Pam Anderson! There’s a new beach beauty in town, and he’s got dude cleavage. [Vanity Fair] Keep reading »

Marion Cotillard On Vanity Fair Sans Retouching

Annika HarrisSeptember 23, 2010 //

Some say French beauty Marion Cotillard looks tired and haggard without retouching on the cover of Vanity Fair, but I think she looks like a real beauty with a real sense of vulnerability. Peep the photos from her spread inside the mag and let us know what you think of Marion without the power of Photoshop. [Fashion Indie] Keep reading »

Vanity Fair’s 2010 “New Establishment” Is A List Of (Mostly) Rich White Guys

Jessica WakemanSeptember 3, 2010 //

I don’t know how much stock I take in Vanity Fair‘s lists of the most powerful and influential people. There’s no denying someone like Oprah Winfrey, Mark Zuckerberg, or Rupert Murdoch has an enormous ability to influence people. But there’s always people in lists like that who I sense are just getting a blow job from the magazine. Besides, who each of us is influenced by is such a personal thing! I personally find Tina Fey and Ani DiFranco enormously “influential,” but they are never listed on anything. Alas, Vanity Fair‘s 2010 list of the 100 people in “New Establishment” has another reason for you to scoff at its credibility: If my counting skills are to be trusted, of the 114 people on the list, there are only 13 women. That’s nine percent. Nine! Keep reading »

Vanity Fair Accuses Sarah Palin Of Relying On A “Push-Up Bra” To Get What She Wants

Jessica WakemanSeptember 1, 2010 //

Vanity Fair has a new smear piece about Sarah Palin and thankfully this one was not dictated by Levi Johnston. According to this latest hit job, Alaska’s most famous pitbull in lipstick offered to get Bristol Palin and Levi married “if it would be good for the campaign,” threatens her employees, and is prone to ‘F-word’-filled arguments with her husband, Todd. My personal favorite part of the piece is where Levi extends a private apology to the Palins and the hockey mom asks him if he’s wearing “a wire” and if she is being recorded. (He was not.) That public apology that Levi issued? Allegedly, it was written by Todd Palin himself. Levi, through his lawyer, told Vanity Fair, “I had nothing to do with putting that statement together.”

But that’s not all … Keep reading »

Lindsay Lohan Denies Being An Alcoholic And Drug Addict In Vanity Fair

Jessica WakemanAugust 31, 2010 //

A week before she went to jail, Lindsay Lohan did an interview and photo shoot with Vanity Fair. Now, Lohan’s sultry cover is out just days after she has been released from rehab. Well-timed, Lohan. Well-timed.

Her spiel, the blog Styleite noted, is “typical Lindsay. Denial, denial, denial.” Everything you think you know about her is wrong! Lindsay is not an alcoholic, she says, because her putting on her alcohol-monitoring SCRAM bracelet “would have ended me up in detox, in the emergency room, because I would have had to come down from all the things that people say I’m taking and my father says I’m taking.” Lindsay’s not a drug addict either, she insists. “I’ve never abused prescription drugs. I never have—never in my life,” she said. “I have no desire to. That’s not who I am.” Keep reading »

Quotable: Lady Gaga Hit “Rock Bottom” On Drugs

Jessica WakemanAugust 2, 2010 //

“I was completely mental and had just been through so much … I do not want my fans to ever emulate that or be that way. I don’t want my fans to think they have to be that way to be great. It’s in the past. It was a low point, and it led to disaster. … All I will say is I hit rock bottom, and it was enough to send a person over the edge. My mother knew the truth about that day, and she screamed so loud on the other end of the phone, I’ll never forget it. And she said, ‘I’m coming to get you.’ … I cried. I told her I thought my life was over and I have no hope and I’ve worked so hard, and I knew I was good. What would I do now? And she said, ‘I’m gonna let you cry for a few more hours. And then after those few hours are up, you’re gonna stop crying, you’re gonna pick yourself up, you’re gonna go back to New York, and you’re gonna kick some ass.’”

— Lady Gaga is elusive with the details about her past drug use, but tells Vanity Fair that her mother took her to her 82-year-old grandmother’s house in West Virginia to sober up. In the past, Gaga has admitted she did “bags and bags of cocaine.” [Vanity Fair] Keep reading »

Lady Gaga Strikes A Naked Pose On The Cover Of Vanity Fair

Susannah BreslinJuly 31, 2010 //

Forget no pants! On the cover of the September issue of Vanity Fair, Lady Gaga has forgotten all her clothes altogether. (I think?) It’s the magazine’s annual style issue, and no one has done more to pioneer trends like latex in day time, phone hair, and spiked shoulders than her Royal Gaga. She was photographed by Nick Knight for the story, which appears to be called “Naked Came the World’s No. 1 Pop Star.” Hello, double entendre. I’d say her look her is Sharon Tate + Yoko Ono + Vegas Showgirl = ??? [Vanity Fair] Keep reading »
