Heidi Klum on the cover of Glamour Plus Janelle Monae Interview

Heidi Klum on the cover, singer Janelle Monae's interview! All in Glamour's August issue on stands now! Check out what Janelle shared with Glamour:

On what made her start wearing tuxedos:
“I'm just really attracted to a very tailored, classic look that commands attention. The tuxedo, especially on women, does that, I think, because of the stark black and white. It's not a trendy thing. It's timeless. It's transcendent. The kind of thing you can give to your grandchildren.”

On if she ever breaks her black and white style routine:
“Do you ever just wear sweats? asked Glamour. Of course, yes. But they're still black and white!”

On what she thinks of her fans versions of “Tightrope” on YouTube:
“It makes me so proud that I have created something that somebody can wear in their own heart. That's what creating music is like for me. I want it to be part of your daily regimen. I want this song to be your drug.”

On seeing a schoolroom of kids singing one of her songs:
“I always think about the next generation and creating a different blueprint for them. That's my goal: to let them know there's another way. We don't all have to take the same coordinates to get to the same destination.”

Glamour Covers

With a collective 14 movies coming out this year, Emma Stone, Ashley Greene and Freida Pinto are about to become the style world’s new obsessions. Matthias Vriens-McGrath photographed Emma in Los Angeles, Ashley in Baton Rouge, LA and Freida in Paris for Glamour’s May 2011 cover. The issue will be available digitally (iPad and Barnes & Noble Nook Color) and newsstands nationwide on April 5.

Fashion and Quotes

Emma Stone
Emma wears a D&G dress, Nina Basharova gold bangles with precious gems and Heike Grebenstein Fine Jewelry gold bangles on her cover. Inside the issue, Emma wears an eye-popping red Tory Burch cardigan, floral Erdem shorts, Heike Grebenstein Fine Jewelry bangles and Christian Louboutin shoes. She also wears a Viktor and Rolf dress, Flutter by Jill Golden bangles and Alexander Wang shoes. Additionally, she wears a white-hot Versace dress and Renee Lewis gold and diamond earrings. Emma also rocks it in a chic Helmut Lang jacket and shorts worn with a Janis by Janis Savitt antique silver crystal bracelet.

Emma Stone on the best advice her mother’s ever given her…
“She is the greatest person on earth. She always helps me deal with things as they happen instead of planning them all out ahead of time. But that’s one of 600 billion pieces of advice she’s given me. “

Emma Stone on what she looks 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. 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. [Laughs.]

Emma Stone on the pressure to be thin in Hollywood…
“You’re a human being, you live once and life is wonderful, so eat the damn red velvet cupcake.”

Freida Pinto
Freida Pinto is featured on her cover wearing a bra top and shorts by Peter Som and Louis Vuitton Swarovski rhinestone and resin rings. Inside the issue, Freida is wearing a Tucker by Gaby Basora bustier and Lela Rose shorts. She is also seen in a Prabal Gurung dress along with a Chopard diamond and white gold bracelet. Additionally, she wears a camisole and pants by The Row and a House of Lavande diamante ring.

Freida Pinto on ethnicity in Hollywood…
“I think people are starting to become more color-blind in the industry. Of course, my Indian-ness cannot be ignored. At the same time, if I am being considered for a romantic comedy, I would like if [the script] didn’t try to inject as much ethnicity into the story as possible.”

Freida Pinto on filming in Tunisia when the uprising broke out….
“There was a civil war going on. People were burning down shops and malls; there was killing and bloodshed. I was stuck in this massive hotel with 354 rooms and only six guests. The lights kept shutting down, and there was a 5:00pm curfew. But I wasn’t there by myself: Dev [Patel, her Slumdog costar and current boyfriend] came down to see me. I was so glad I had company.”

Freida Pinto on relationships in Hollywood…
“When a doctor is performing an operation, his mind cannot be somewhere else. And it’s the same with actors. You have to commit yourself mind, body and soul to a project in order to do justice to it. And temptations are rife in this industry, which is why I think it’s important to know yourself before you try to deal with a relationship.”

Ashley Greene
On Ashley’s cover she wears a J.Crew cardigan and Nanette Lepore bikini top and bottom. Inside the issue, Ashley wears a floral D&G top with pink Louis Vuitton shorts. She also appears in a bright floral Marc by Marc Jacobs romper worn with a bracelet and rings by Louis Vuitton. Additionally, Ashley wears a flirty white Dolce & Gabbana dress with a James Colarusso silver necklace. She also dons a lace-up Haute Hippie dress, Dolce & Gabbana bra and Isabel Marant earrings and bracelets. Ashley plays it casual in a Ralph Lauren Collection blouse, tank, and shorts. This look is accessorized with a James Colarusso long gold necklace, Monique Péan rose gold and sapphire heart and Isabel Marant boots.

Ashley Greene on her career post-Twilight…
“It is difficult because people look at you as that character. I want to play a role of a 24-year-old woman, not 17-year-old girls. So I have picked a couple of films like Butter to show that. And it’s perfectly fine not to do anything for a year if I don’t find the right thing.”

Ashley Greene on how it all started at a modeling convention in New York…
“I’m a big believer in “everything happens for a reason.” I’m not saying it wasn’t hard. I lived off Lean Cuisine and had no furniture and shared a bedroom with a girl for a year. I ran up my credit card. But every time I thought, I’m going to fail, something happened that kept me here.”

Ashley Greene on how she avoids the pitfalls of the Hollywood party scene…
“I keep to the ground rules. I’m not going to get drunk at a bar. There are younger girls who look up to me. So I do my best not to stray too far.”

Kate Winslet on the Cover of Glamour

Ah, Kate Winslet: actress, mother and, let’s be honest, glamazon. At least so say Glamour readers, who have voted her to the very top of the 50 Most Glam list a whopping three years running. She graces the cover in an Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress and rose gold Van Cleef & Arpels earrings. Photographed in New York City by Matthias Vriens-McGrath, Kate is also shown in a stunning black Victoria Beckham dress, Fred Leighton necklace and House of Waris bracelet. Additionally, Kate is wearing a dramatic Sophie Theallet dress, Van Cleef & Arpels earrings and an Elsa Peretti for Tiffany & Co. bangle. To see the full list of the 50 Most Glam, click here. The April issue will be available on newsstands nationwide and digitally (on the iPad and the Barnes & Noble NookColor) March 8.

On choosing to play the roles of angst-ridden women…
“It’s my chance to challenge myself to the fullest, which is one of the great joys about this job…. I love it when a character requires me to look less than my red-carpet best. It’s more fun playing a character that requires you to look like dog s--t.”

On being heavy when she was younger…

“I will tell you that when I was heavy, people would say to me—and it was such a backhanded compliment—they would say, ‘You’ve got such a beautiful face,’ in the way of, like, ‘Oh, isn’t it a shame that from the neck down you’re questionable.’ ”

On whether or not she’s had plastic surgery or wants to change anything about her body…

“No, I have never tried any of that stuff…. I don’t have parts of my body that I hate or would like to trade for somebody else’s or wish I could surgically adjust into some fantasy version of what they are.”

On what it was like to win the Oscar…

“…I was the kid who never won the races. I never jumped the highest. I wasn’t on the list of the high-achieving. That wasn’t me, so winning the Oscar was like winning all the prizes in one single night that I never won as a kid. For me, it was an internal-fist-pumping moment of yes.”

On if her ambition has changed since winning the Oscar…

“I have just wanted to be an actress. That’s always been my goal. I didn’t want to be famous. I wanted to play incredibly challenging, multifaceted characters. Because we are all a puzzle.”

On the difficulties of raising kids…

“The challenge is making sure that they’re never treated different just because I sometimes am. I always want them to be regular kids who are grateful and respectful of other human beings. I want them to know that when we fly first-class, that they are lucky. The highest compliment I could ever receive about my kids—and I can say that this does happen frequently—is when the in-flight crew say to me, ‘Your children are wonderful. They are so well-behaved.’ Every time I am told that, I could weep.”

On what she thinks her life will be like in five years…

“I don’t want to know. As long as my kids are OK, I think it is really good for me not to have the answers.”

Kim Kardashian On The Cover Of Glamour

My favorite celeb takes the cover of Glamour Magazine for the Feb issue.  Interview by Katie Couric, Kim talks about it all, her career, dating and being a sex symbol. She graces the cover in Tom Ford pj's, a La Perla bra and Sarah Chole ring. In the opening spread she is photographed in a Dolce & Gabbana bustier and matching skirt. In the pages that follows she is in a Marc Jacobs dress.  To see the whole speard you can click HERE. The issue is available on the Glamour app (iPhone, iPod and iPad), the new Barnes & Noble Nook and of course news stands today! Below, check out excerpts from the interview and a couple of photos. Then go over to the side bar and check out the behind the scenes footage of Kim on her photo shoot at Glamour.

On her success…
“I’d be foolish not to take some of these opportunities that are coming my way. We all know this can go away at any moment.”

On her sisters…
“We work really hard, and we fight like normal sisters fight, and we make up. We’re so supportive of each other. We always stick together. Having lots of siblings is like having built-in best friends.”

On dating…
“It’s easier to just be single and not have a relationship. How do you get to know someone on a reality show? Some people think that they can handle it, and then they really can’t.”

On being a sex symbol…
“It’s definitely powerful. I don’t find myself as sexy as everyone thinks. I’m a lot more insecure than people would assume, but with little stupid things. When I get dressed, I’m always so indecisive.”

On being in Playboy…
“It was an independence thing for me. I was always by the book, such the straight arrow when it came to pleasing my parents and being a good daughter. I felt like this was one decision that only I could make. And I think it looks great. I’ll have those pictures forever.”

On having every aspect of her family’s life recorded…
“If there’s something that we’re going through, it’s going to get out anyway. It’ll be on the cover of a tabloid, and it’ll be twisted the completely wrong way. So why not tell our story?”

On women being comfortable with their body…
“It’s a process. You have to learn to accept it. You have to learn to like what you see in the mirror. There are definitely times when I don’t feel like myself, but you have to fake it until you make it.”

On what she thought she’d be doing at 30…
“If you had asked me five years ago what I would be doing at 30, I would have said, ‘Married with a kid or two.’ Not in a million years did I dream that I would be doing all the things that I’m doing.”
