Alessandra Ambrosio @ Arena








Brazilian supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio gracing the June 2008 cover of UK's Arena Magazine. The Victoria Secret's Angel is dubbed "The Body From Brazil" on the mag's cover line and I am sure anyone can see why. I hear she is pregnant right now.

People Magazine's 100 Most Beautiful: Kate Hudson??


It all started going down hill when Matt Damon was chosen Sexiest Man Alive in 2007. Now People Magazine - the epitome of common sense & good taste (not!) - chooses Kate Hudson to grace the cover of their annual "100 Most Beautiful" issue. C'mon, Kate Hudson? She is alright looking but in no way worthy of the such privilege - and being on People's cover surely ain't one. Besides being a so-so actress, that if wasn't for her lineage would NEVER have gotten the foot in the door, she is just very...average. That's it, she is average. She is not a drop-dead gorgeous stunner like let's say Adriana Lima or an exotic beauty like Mila Kunis. She is just Goldie Hawn's daughter - plain and simple - and the only reason why she made the cover. Am I wrong?
My suggestions? Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, Katherine Heigl, Kristen Bell, Salma Hayek, Hillary Swank, Angelina Jolie, Kristin Davis, Gabrielle Union, Cate Blanchett, Rihanna and the list goes on...

Julianne Moore @ Vogue Paris May 2008




Ageless beauty Julianne Moore looking gorgeous on the cover of the new May 2008 issue of French Vogue. The actress has been around for a while but only seems to get more beautiful each time I see her. She has the type of career that has to be the envy of many Hollywood female stars as her bold choices set her way apart from the "In Style" crowd. These pictures are so sexy and clearly done for an European publication. When would you see an American Vogue cover looking this audacious? Never! The current issue of "our" Vogue brings Gwyneth Paltrow looking more like a bad wax-version of herself (they do love their Photoshop in the US) and that is quite bizarre to me and everyone else, wouldn't you say?

Kate Moss @ Vogue Espana May 2008





Vogue Espana is celebrating it's 20th anniversary with four different Kate Moss covers. Their May 2008 issue features images of Moss taken by British photographer Nick Knight.
Stars were obviously the theme for the shoot with Moss wearing a black Chanel star print jump suit on one cover, and a (mucho feo!) Yves Saint laurent white satin star print dress on another.

Christina Ricci @ Blackbook May 2008 Issue









Christina Ricci looking mighty sexy on the cover of May 2008's Blackbook magazine. Ms Ricci has a brand new movie coming out this month - the most anticipated "Speed Racer" - inspired on the 1960's Japanese cartoon series. "Speed" centers on a young race car driver, Speed (Emile Hirsch), and his quest for glory in his thundering, gadget-laden vehicle Mach 5. Ricci stars as Speed's girlfriend Trixie, his formidable ally on and off the track.

Jessica Simpson @ Esquire Magazine




Jessica Simpson on the May 2008 cover of Esquire magazine, dealing with a hormonal problem so it seems. The photo is a remake of a classic 1960's cover featuring Italian actress Virna Lisi and we have to agree that it is a bit odd, wouldn't you say?

Agyness Deyn @ i-D May 2008 Issue




You know what? I have never seen much in British model Agyness Deyn but I guess i-D magazine does. She is the face of their "Icon" issue in not one or two, but six (!) different covers this May. She is cute and all but take away the bleach blond mop of hair and she is just a little above average in my opinion. I am not a nay-sayer and wish her all the best in the world but I find it overkill when you are force-fed anyone (model, actress, singer) just because the media needs a new name to pump. Agyness pops up in every "most stylish" list these days and I just don't get all the hoopla about the girl. She looks adorable and probably is a great & fun gal but please give it a rest media people, please!

Cameron Diaz @ GQ May 2008 - UK Edition

.







Cameron Diaz looking pretty hot in the UK edition of GQ magazine, May 2008 issue. I've always been a fan of Cameron and love her sass and I-don't-give-a-damn attitude. She is a joy to watch in the talk shows as she is always up for a good laugh. She used to be a model before getting into movies so she surely can strike a pose as these GQ images shot by Simon Emmet show.

Madonna Elle Covers Double-Dose




One Madonna is never enough in my book. The Can-Do-No-Wrong Goddess is featured on the covers of Elle Magazine's May 2008 issue here in the US and also across the pond on the UK's version. I personally prefer the edgier British cover for it's cleaner lay out and semi-minimal text spread. The American version looks more like Glamour than chic Elle, with so much crap written all over that makes one go dizzy. Does anyone really read all those teasers before buying a mag? I don't. I buy a publication regardless of the cover type but for it's cover subject or I'll pick it up if I'm already familiar with it, like an i-D or Wallpaper.

Sexual Innuendo In Comics

.





I was peeing my pants looking at these very suggestive comic book covers I came across on Ebaum's World site. It's so hilarious to imagine how no publisher at the time realized that the double-entendre was too obvious to ignore. This last cover is actually quite creepy! No wonder the are so many rumours surrounding super heroes...
More to come! (No pun intended)
