Britney Spears Harper’s Bazaar Magazine July 2011

Professionally, Britney Spears has a lot to feel good about: Her new album, Femme Fatale, is receiving the best reviews of her almost-20-year career and the Femme Fatale hitmaker has landed a cover spot on the July issue of Harper’s Bazaar, on newsstands May 31. In front of the lens, the pop tart opens up about her career, preparing for her upcoming summer tour with femcee Nicki Minaj, and whether or not she’ll take a third trip down the aisle with boyfriend Jason Trawick.

“I’ve worked so hard on this album, so it’s really refreshing,” the ‘Til the World Ends” singer began, listing Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, and Rihanna as some of her musical influences.

On How Being a Mom Affected How She Approaches Her Career: “I think things through a little bit more, and I worry a lot. I’m more straightforward, and I speak up more than I did before. When I was younger, I wouldn’t speak up as much, but now that I’m a mom, things have changed.”

On Preparing for her upcoming Femme Fatale Tour: “I love to dance, so it’s very exciting. The tour rehearsals have been going really well. I think it will be my best show yet.”

On Justin Bieber: “I think he’s adorable,” Spears gushed. “I just saw his movie, and I really didn’t realize how big he was. He’s enormous; he’s just Mr. Man. A lot of the movie is really similar to what I did when i was starting out. I did a promo tour for a year, going into radio stations and all that. It was so cool to see our similarities.”

On Getting Married Again and Having More Children: “I’ve thought about both. So if the timing was right…”

What don’t people know about you? “I’m pretty normal, you know? Like I said, the type of day I love is just like everybody else’s. I’m like everybody else.”

Rachel McAdams Covers Elle June 2011

Rachel McAdams covers the June 2011 issue of Elle Magazine, clad in leather pants and sporting huge ’80s hair. The Ontario-born former “Mean Girl” chats about what it was like to reunite on set with her Wedding Crashers co-star Owen Wilson in Woody Allen’s new film, Midnight in Paris. The film co-stars Marion Cotillard, Kathy Bates, and French First Lady Carla Bruni. It opened the 64th annual Cannes Film Festival tonight. Rachel was spotted arriving at the Nice Airport Tuesday, trying to go incognito in shades and a hat.It’s definitely a different dynamic from the last time we were together,” says the actress. “It wasn’t as fun being mean. I love that Woody likes good guys to be good guys and bad guys to be bad guys. Owen seemed to respond really well when I was a really bad guy.”

Rachel says she often has a difficult time imagining herself in certain roles offered to her.

“Sometimes I don’t think I’m the best person for the job,” she admits. “That was the case with Morning Glory. Sometimes I think, ‘Really? You see me as this?’ Just because I don’t see myself that way, does that mean I shouldn’t do it?” she reveals to Elle. ”..With Mean Girls, I originally auditioned for the part that Lindsay Lohan played. I wouldn’t have seen myself playing Regina at all. But when I read the script, I thought, Oh, this part is way more fun; I wonder who will play that.…”

Rachel On Critics’ Reaction to Morning Glory: “It’s funny, because so many people said to me, ;It’s the kind of film you don’t see anymore, done in a way that isn’t done anymore.’ I thought that was a really positive thing, but apparently not. I only hear these businesspeople: ‘Well, no one was sure who it was for’”

On Being a Romantic: “I am. When Billie Holiday comes on, I can’t help but be transported—and I’m sure it wasn’t as romantic then at all—but that’s the wonderful part of my job: dressing up and walking down the street in New York or Toronto, pretending I’m in the ’40s.”

On Finding Inspiration in Her Parents’ Marriage: “[They are] still together and still in love. I’m very blessed that way. I had a great example of love in front of me, and that’s probably what makes me such a romantic, because I’ve seen it firsthand.”

Her Expectations For Relationships: “You grow up and you assume that everyone is like that, and you quickly realize that they’re not, and then you have those days when you wonder if you’re going to find it for yourself. It’s such a hard thing to find. I think it was more that realization that rocked me.”

100 Sexiest Women In The World 2011 FHM

Men’s magazine FHM unveiled its annual 100 Sexiest Women In The World poll .For while Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was voted the World’s Sexiest Woman for the first time ever – knocking Cheryl Cole from the title she’s held for the past two years – she was otherwise indisposed and unable to collect her title at the London do.

In fact, it looked like not one name from even the Top 30 list of lad’s mag lovelies, as voted for by their readers, had turned up at the bash, held at the One Marylebone club. Also in attendance was FHM’s latest pin-up, The Only Way Is Essex star Amy Childs, who yesterday spoke of her delight of stripping to her scanties for her debut in the pages of the monthly men’s glossy.

The guest list last night was also graced by John Terry’s former lover Vanessa Perroncel, Strictly star and former boxer Joe Calzaghe and X Factor loser Shanye Ward.
Also there was Daybreak weather girl Lucy Verasamy, former Blue Peter presenter Zoe Salmon, models Olivia Inge and Laura Budd and Emmerdale star Adele Silva.
In the poll which was unveiled last night, Huntington-Whiteley was the winner of the poll of the magazine’s readers, winning the coveted Sexiest Woman in the World crown, just days after landing a similar title from Maxim magazine.
However, the 24-year-old model-turned-Transformers-actress was in New York last night, where she had attended the Met Gala the night before.She lives in Los Angeles with actor boyfriend and FHM hero Jason Statham

The allure seems to have rubbed off from The Saturdays star Frankie Sandford since she started dating footballer Wayne Bridge, as she’s dropped out of the Top 10.
Other Brits to win the title in the poll’s 17-year history include Keira Knightley in 2006 and Kelly Brook in 2005.
This year, Katy Perry takes second place, knocking former 2008 champion Megan Fox back into fourth.
Fellow pop princess Rihanna also rocketed up the ranking, climbing 40 places to third. It’s the first time either star has made the top ten.
This year’s Top 10 also sees new entries from Just Go With It actress Brooklyn Decker at number six and footballer Cristiano Ronaldo’s Russian model girlfriend Irina Shayk at 10.
New mother Abbey Clancy drops out from 10 down to 28.
And newlywed Kate Middleton enjoyed a massive surge of popularity this year. The Duchess entered the list previously with a number 25 ranking in 2007.
This year, the only royal represented in the list re-enters at 39.

Katy Perry Vanity Fair Magazine June 2011

Katy Perry purrs on the cover of the June 2011 issue of Vanity Fair Magazine. Between the covers of the style mag, the “Teenage Dream” singer speaks out for the first time — albeit cryptically — about a tell-all book her preacher mother, Mary Hudson, is shopping about her and reveals the differences between hers and her parents’ way of thinking.

The “Teenage Dream” singer blames her strict Christian upbringing at the hands of her evangelical-minister parents of robbing her of a normal childhood.

“I didn’t have a childhood,” Katy told VF, adding that she was not allowed to say things like “deviled eggs” or “Dirt Devil,” to listen to secular music or read books besides the Bible during her years of maturation in California. “Growing up, seeing Planned Parenthood, it was considered like the abortion clinic. I was always scared I was going to get bombed when I was there … I didn’t know it was more than that, that it was for women and their needs. I didn’t have insurance, so I went there and I learned about birth control.”

Perry credits her husband, actor Russell Brand, with opening her mind even more.

“I come from a very non-accepting family, but I’m very accepting…My husband always reminds me to keep the core intact, because that’s what matters. I just think I have to appreciate every day, every opportunity, work hard, and continue to evolve as an artist.

Katy On Refusing To Sell Wedding Photos: “The press is just not your friend when it comes to marriage. That’s why we didn’t sell the pictures of our wedding, and we got offered millions of dollars for them, millions. It’s the wrong kind of attention. It detracts from the reason why you exist. We wanted that moment to ourselves.”

Perry On Her Career: “My career is like an artichoke. People might think that the leaves are tasty and buttered up and delicious, and they don’t even know that there’s something magical hidden at the base of it. I think that eventually, [with me], you’ll see more layers. There’s a whole other side that people didn’t know existed.”

On Google: “I’m four months Google-free. I don’t Google myself any more. That was my New Year’s resolution. I don’t read papers. I don’t even look at reviews. I have a good team around me so if anything pops up that’s really good or bad I’ll know about it. Generally I feel much better being able to live my life like a normal person and not read yesterday’s news.”

Cameron Diaz Covers Elle UK & Maxim Hot 100 Issue 2011

Bad Teacher’s Cameron Diaz pulls double cover duty appearances on the June 2011 editions of Elle Magazine UK and Maxim, which placed the lovely and leggy thirtysomething on its annual Hot 100 ranking of the world’s most beautiful women.

“I think we have to make our own rules,” the 38-year-old told the men’s mag when quizzed for her thoughts on marriage. “I don’t think we should live our lives in relationships based off old traditions that don’t suit our world any longer.”

She added: “I love men more than anything. I want all men to be happy and have rad women in their lives. But guys need women who challenge them and don’t let them get away with their shit. Women, conversely, need to not be crazy bitches who blow up when their guys tell them something that scares them.”

Of her romance with Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez, Cammy was noticably less candid: “It’s really awesome. I love baseball!”

Other notable names on this year’s Hot 100, released Tuesday, include Victoria’s Secret supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Perfect Couples beauty Olivia Munn (#2), “California Gurl” Katy Perry (#3), lovely and leggy Cameron Diaz (#4), Black Swan star Mila Kunis (#5), Natalie Portman (#8), Sean Penn’s side piece Scarlett Johansson (#14), 2009′s Hot 100 winner Olivia Wilde (#16), former “Transformers” siren Megan Fox (#17), and pop princess Britney Spears (#25), Charlie’s Angel for the New Age Minka Kelly (#52), Miley Cyrus (#65), Harry Potter Emma Watson (#69), femcee Nicki Minaj (#75) and Erin Andrews (#91).

The list also included a dash of royalty – Prince William’s new bride, Kate Middleton, came in at 26th place.

Mariah Carey Welcomes Twins With Hubby Nick Cannon

Just in case you haven’t heard, The Carey-Cannon Buns have come out of the oven. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary Saturday (Has it been that long already?!) by becoming parents to a baby girl and boy today. The stiletto-lovin’ songbird a new mom just in time for Mothers’ Day.

Guess that means we’ve seen our last topless “Nick and Mariah Posin’ Nude with Belly Bump” magazine cover?

Carey, 41, delivered the healthy tots at 12:07 PM EDT at an undisclosed hospital in Los Angeles, the star’s longtime rep, Cindi Berger, told The Associated Press. Nick and Mariah’s baby girl was reportedly born first, weighing 5 pounds, 3 ounces, and was 18 inches long; while her brother was next, at 5 pounds 6 ounces, and was 19 inches.

Berger said the couple was calm while en route to the hospital in their Rolls-Royce Phantom, as they believed Mariah’s labor pains were a false alarm. But the contractions proved to be the real deal, Nick, 30, was reportedly so nervous he had to be guided to the maternity ward by a nurse after he went to the wrong department.

So much for keeping your cool!

“Nick was very nervous and Mariah was completely calm. Mariah thought it was another soft labor and Nick was driving her to the hospital and she very calm and the music was blasting. When they walked into the hospital, [Nick] was going the wrong way and they nurse redirected them to go the maternity ward, and I said to her, ‘that’s right out of I Love Lucy,’ and she laughed,’” Berger told The AP.

Berger added that the new parents fittingly played Carey’s hit song “We Belong Together” shortly after the twins’ arrival.

Evan Rachel Wood May issue of Esquire Magazine

Evan Rachel Wood likes to be thought of as a dark, rebellious mystery, but the former child star lifts the lid a little in an interview with the May issue of Esquire Magazine. Evan, 23, talks about her nine tattoos, dating Marilyn Manson, and reveals that she is bisexual. Yep, you heard right. The Wrestler actress says she’s happy to date either a man or a woman.

“I’m up for anything. Meet a nice guy, meet a nice girl …” Wood says.

Wood is the second True Blood actress to cop to batting for both teams; series star Anna Paquin came out in a 2010 public service announcement touting marriage equality. When it comes to dating women, Wood unleashes her inner North Carolina gentleman. She opens doors, pulls out chairs, and even picks up the tab at dinner.

“Yeah, I’m more kind of like the guy when it comes to girls. I’m the dominant one. I’m opening the doors, I’m buying dinner. Yeah, I’m romantic,” says Evan, who plays the Vampire Queen of Louisiana on the bloodsucking HBO series.

Wood recently co-starred in the HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce, in which she was featured in a nude scene. She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in the 2003 film Thirteen.

The provocative June issue of Esquire arrives on newsstands on April 26.

“Glee’s” Darren Criss Covers Billboard Magazine

To tide you over until the next episode of Glee (Counting the days already, eh?) we give you Darren Criss on the cover of the latest issue of Billboard Magazine, hitting newsstands nationwide Monday.

Posing for one seriously hot photo shoot and opening up in an exclusive interview, Criss, who plays Kurt’s boyfriend Blaine on the award-winning musical-comedy, chats up his career influences, the upcoming Glee summer concert tour, and three tracks from the show’s new album. Glee: The Music Presents The Warblers arrives everywhere music is sold on April 19, and to celebrate the release, Criss discusses how “Misery,” “Candles,” and “Raise Your Glass” (our fave) came to life on Glee.

Speaking of his love for musical theatre, Darren revealed that Disney was pretty much the reason for his decision to jump head-first into the performing industry.

“I remember seeing people’s reactions to Aladdin and thinking ‘Oh man, I want to be a genie when I grow up.’ I was like, ‘I want to do whatever that guy does. What does he do, Mum? He’s an actor? Okay, I want to do that.’”

Darren About Possibly Releasing a Solo Album with Sony Music: “We’re working on it—we’re really excited and it’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. I’m so thrilled that it’s something that can happen because of Glee, and like the Warblers album I hope I can do it justice and make it something that people can really enjoy.”

Getting Prepared for the Glee Summer Tour: “A year ago, I was so psyched that my first show in L.A. was at the Troubadour. Talk about so much for baby steps. It’s like, ‘Wait—Staples Center, are you kidding me?’ I was happy to drive around in a beat-up, crappy old van with my bandmates and just go to small clubs around the country.”

Adele Rolling Stone Magazine Cover “I Love Katy Perry’s Boobs!”

Katy Perry’s bust may have been too hot for Sesame Street, but the “California Gurl’s” infamous rack has become the object of affection for British songbird Adele.

Adele continues her quest for world domination in an interview with Rolling Stone’s April 15 “Best of Rock 2011″ issue. During the chat, the anything-but-bashful Adele confessed that she really likes seeing “Katy Perry’s boobs and bum.”

“I love seeing Lady Gaga’s boobs and bum and I love seeing Katy Perry’s boobs and bum. Love it. But that’s not what my music is about. I don’t make music for eyes. I make music for ears.”

The “Rolling In The Deep” singer insisted that any pop stars who flaunt their bodies should be applauded — but she’ll never become one of them. Adele also says that she is happy with her plus-sized figure because she doesn’t “like going to the gym.”

“Even if I had a really good figure, I don’t think I’d get my tits and ass out for no one.”

Adele On Stage Fright: “I’m scared of audiences…One show in Amsterdam, I was so nervous I escaped out the fire exit. I’ve thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile-vomited on someone,” she continued. “I just gotta bear it. But I don’t like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot.”

On Meeting Her Idol Beyonce: “I was about to meet Beyoncé and I had a full-blown anxiety attack. Then she popped in looking gorgeous, and said, ‘You’re amazing! When I listen to you I feel like I’m listening to God.’ Can you believe she said that? I went out on the balcony crying hysterically, and I said, ‘What would Sasha Fierce do?’ That’s when Sasha Carter [a blend of Sasha Fierce and June Carter] was born.”

On Her Estranged Father Mike Evans, Who Recently Sold A Tell-All Interview On Adele To Britain’s The Sun: “I never knew my dad. He has no fuckin’ right to talk about me.”

Lady Gaga Harper’s Bazaar Magazine May 2011

Outre singing star Lady Gaga covers the May 2011 issue of Harper’s Bazaar Magazine sporting horn-like “bones” — the newest form of from pop’s most beloved walking fashion tragedy.Gaga might adhere protrusions to her arms and face, but she’s never permanently altered her body.

Jennifer Lopez is Happiest at Home

The American Idol judge has recently admitted that she is the happiest when she is at home with her family and not under the scrutinizing eye of the make-up artists that get Jennifer Lopez ready to play her role as dream destroyer on American Idol. This is what Jennifer Lopez said on the matter: “Just being able to touch my face and rub my eyes and put my fingers in my hair and not having to worry about messing it up. It’s so much better.” One must wonder if it would be such a bad and horrifying thing if Jennifer Lopez were to appear on American Idol without any make-up and just be natural… sort of a special episode, if you will. Maybe the producers will actually look into that, after all, those ratings aren’t going to keep themselves up too easily.

Robert Pattinson Elle Magazine May 2011 There’s A Lot To Be Said For Older Women

Good news for TwiHards over 40: Hollywood hunk Robert Pattinson is apparently “obsessed” with older women.

Sure, he’s often rumored to be sharing more than hugs and giggles with his 20-year-old onscreen love interest, Kristen Stewart, but Robert has quite an affinity for women of a certain age.

“I was always obsessed with Kate Moss. On my bedroom wall I had a poster of Linda Blair and Kate,” Robert said tells the May 2011 issue of Elle Magazine.

Okay, so a supermodel and a Hollywood movie star. Sure, we can understand that.

Anyone else make the crush list R-Pattz? How about a pair of sexy seventysomethings?

“I always liked Jane Fonda. [And] Ellen Burstyn.”

Pattinson On The Paparazzi: “You know, when the whole thing dries up and there’s hardly any paparazzi around—I don’t know, in 15 years or something—I like the idea of just one paparazzo coming out and trying to get a picture, and I just beat the shit out of him. I mean—out of nowhere—when my picture’s not even worth…and I’ve spent all my money, so you can’t sue me!”

On What Embarrasses Him: “I guess if you’re constantly in public, you’re not embarrassed about anything. But dancing is my Achilles’ heel—I don’t even try. It’s like, ‘Come on, dance!’ ‘No, I’m not getting up!’ I can freestyle by myself with no one watching. I’m a great dancer then.”

First wedding pics of Reese Witherspoon blissfully happy emerged

Although the photos emerged on Monday, I couldn’t help but to share Reese Witherspoon’s first wedding pictures. The blonde actress is a beautiful bride as we can see from the cover of People magazine. Dressed in a Monique Lhuillier blush-hued, Reese married agent Tim toth on March 26 in her ranch Ojai, California. And we can honestly say Reese looks both blissful and stunning. A source says, “She took your breath away.” “There was a real family feel,” another party goer told People. “There was so much joy in the room and a lot of laughter.”

Congratulations to Reese, Tim, and her children Ava and Deacon! A new stage in life has begun, may joy and love be part of your everyday. So glad for Reese!

Reese Witherspoon Wedding Dress Gets Photoshopped On Cover Of Hello! Magazine

The design featured a Chantilly lace corset bodice and full tulle A-line skirt with a silk ribbon around the waist. Reese’s wedding snaps made their way to the covers of both PEOPLE and Hello! Magazine on Monday — and the color of the blushing bride’s flowing gown was noticably different on both!

Thoughts on this?

This is the second marriage for the 35-year-old Oscar winner, who tied the knot with actor Ryan Phillippe in 1999, when she was only 24.

The two split in Oct. 2007, but Witherspoon said she realized a valuable lesson for her second marriage.

“You can’t say, ‘I don’t want to talk about that,’” she tells the May 2011 issue of Elle Magazine. “You just can’t. You’ve got to talk about it all.”

“Oh, I was so, so young,” she told Elle of her first marriage. “I was, like, ridiculously young. I learned a lot, though. It was a good opportunity for me to really find out what it means to be a partner and to be in a marriage and it’s not anything that I thought it was.”

Kim Kardashian Cosmopolitan Magazine UK May 2011

The Kardashian Girls are popping up on Cosmo covers all over the globe this month! As Khloe Kardashian posed for the debut issue of Cosmopolitan Middle East this month, her big sister Kim is talking everything from cellulite to boobs in the new issue of Cosmopolitan UK.

In the exclusive interview, the 30-year-old former Playboy centerfold tells Cosmo that she doesn’t understand why everyone expects her to be perfect: “When I was criticized for it, I said, ‘I have cellulite. So what!’ I’ve never claimed to be perfect. It’s crazy anyone should assume that just because you’re in the spotlight, you’re flawless.”

But, when the TV personality posted the cover to her website, some readers commented saying they were surprised at how much the photo is retouched.

She admits that she’d rather eat good food and have a few dimples on her backside, than sacrifice some of her favorite carb-filled snacks. Guess we know where that famous backside came from. Butter, anyone?

“Sometimes I pig out and I still feel great, and think, ‘That was so worth it!’ That’s how I feel a lot of the time. I think, ‘See this little dimple of cellulite here? It was so worth it for that cookies ’n’ cream ice cream!’”

Khloe Kardashian Cosmopolitan Middle East April 2011

Khloe Kardashian laments the perils and pitfalls of being “The Ugly Tranny Sister” in the April inaugural issue of Cosmopolitan Middle East Magazine.

If you don’t know your Kardashians very well (Have you been living under a boulder, woman?!), Khloe is the tall, voluptuous, younger sister of Kim and Kourtney. Or as she puts it: “I’m the ugly sister. I’m the fat one. I’m the transvestite.”

The oft-exposed reality star has admitted to Cosmopolitan Middle East (Yep, there’s a Cosmo Middle East now!) that she’s had to become pretty thick skinned about the comparisons made between her and her stunning older sisters.

“I’m the ugly sister. I’m the fat one. I’m the transvestite.I have had those mean things said about me at least twice a day for the last five years,” says the 26-year-old, who will appear alongside her hoop star husband Lamar Odom on the new E! reality soap Lamar & Khloe, premiering later this month.

“It’s horrible, you know? But I can brush that stuff off. Kim and Kourtney have said to me, ‘If we were put under the same negative attention that you are, we couldn’t handle it.’ If I want to wear a long flowing dress, someone will say I’m pregnant. I believe we’re not given any more than we can handle and most of the time I can handle it. But we all have fat days and if I’m having one of those days, those sorts of things make me feel down.”

Cosmopolitan Middle East’s debut went live across the globe on Friday, bringing Cosmo’s holdings in the young women’s global magazine brand to over 60 editions worldwide and closely follows the launch of Cosmopolitan Armenia — which featured another Kardashian, Kim, on its March 2011 premiere edition.

“Women today in the Middle East are just so much more sure of who they are and their rights within their own home. You know, their rights to enjoy a relationship, their rights within a relationship and more confident in who they are,” says Cosmo Middle East editor-in-chief Kerrie Simon.

Kardashians Redbook Magazine May 2011 Cover

Kris Jenner has a bone to pick with people who says her six kids are all boobs and Botox and little talent.

The cover of Redbook’s May 2011 issue features the latest family portrait for the famed Kardashian Klan: Kris and daughters Kourtney, Kim, Khloe Kendall, Kylie, and grandson Mason all make beaming appearances for the mag’s fold-out Mother’s Day Edition. Momager Kris — who says her family earned more than $65 million in TV deals and endorsements in 2010 alone — believes the sucess of runaway reality hits, including Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami, and Kim & Kourtney Take New York, proves her dolled-up mealtickets deserve as much respect as every other overexposed star in Hollywood.

Thank you very much!

Scott Disick Covers Men’s Fitness May 2011

Scott Disick is a picture of health on the cover of May’s Men’s Fitness and he’s reminding girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian of another dapper star.

“He looks like James Dean and I’m loving it!” she blogged on Tuesday.

The Patrick Bateman doppleganger, who works as a marketing executive for drug company VitaQuest, says working out three to four times a week for 45 minutes helped him “to see that there was a better life out there.” In addition to promoting VitaQuest’s male enhancement drug Amidren, Disick tells the mag that he’s also developing a hair pomade, skincare products, and a line of tanning products called Monte Carlo Tan all set for release in the coming months.

Rihanna Vogue Magazine April 2011 Cover Debut

It took a while, but ravishing redhead Rihanna’s finally ready for her covergirl closeup on the front of the April issue of Vogue Magazine.

The esteemed publication chose the curvaceous “Rude Boy” singer as the cover girl for the 10th anniversary of its annual “Shape Issue.” The Bajan beauty with affinity for flamed-hued hair is pictured in a sheer floral dress which clings to her enviable curves covering artfully covering her modesty with the green blue and red flowers. Her bright red hair, which partially covers her face, is accentuated by bright red lips against a blue sunset background shot by celebrity photog Annie Leibovitz.

Ri’s Vogue debut has been a longtime coming.

Rihanna was devastated when a scheduled photoshoot with The Fashion Bible was canned on the heels of the songstress’ humiliating naked picture scandal. After face down — ass up flicks of a woman alleged to be the “Umbrella” hitmaker found their way online, Vogue editor Anna Wintour pulled the plug on Rih’s Vogue spot.

They don’t call her “The Devil In Prada” for nothin’….

“Anna hasn’t returned any of her calls. Rihanna’s so upset….She hopes the people at Vogue change their minds,” a Star Magazine spy squealed at the time.

Vintage Madonna Photos Published In Out Magazine

Britney Spears shares the April 2011 issue of Out Magazine with the original charttopping pop princess: Madonna.

Readers are taken on an odyssey back to 1984 as The Material Girl dons the cover in a vintage snap taken a year before the release of her self-titled 1983 debut album. Inside is a portfolio of photos of Madge from the same shoot with celebrity lensman Richard Corman.

“I looked up the staircase, and I saw this girl leaning over the edge of the banister, and even from three stories below I could see these catlike eyes just looking down,” Corman says of his first meeting with the woman the world would come to know for smash hits such as “Borderline,” “Holiday,” and “Vogue.” “I knew at that moment that she had something special — I really did.”
