Quote:

Supermodel Linda Evangelista is on the cover of the American edition of Vogue magazine's August (06) issue - at the age of 41 and pregnant with her first child.

Evangelista is the first non-Hollywood star to feature on the publication's cover in over a year.

Inside, the beauty reveals she never had any aspirations to turn to acting or singing.

She says, "I decided when I was 12 that it's what I wanted to do and I count my blessings that I got to realise my dreams.

"Being a rock star was out of the question. I can't sing. I'm so glad this worked out for me, I do think I know how to be a good model. And I didn't have a plan B in place".

Boring. This woman is so full of herself.

I always liked her as a model. Good to see an actual model on Vogue and not another actress with a movie being released.

I'll never be over the 'I won't get out of bed for less than 10 grand' shit....

I am also glad a genuine model is on the cover of Vogue instead of an actress or singer. Yeah, Linda Evangelista was obnoxious with that "won't get out of bed for less than 10 grand" remark, but that was then, this is now. I wish her well with her pregnancy.

I saw her in person once and she is not only huge but also strange looking. Like many models, her exagerated features do not look good in person. Also, this was when she was dating the Kyle guy from Twin Peaks and she was an absolute bitch. She was such a diva--at least at that time--that she probably would've given Naomi Campbell a run for her money.

All you could aspire to at 12 was looking good in photos? What a damn shame.

buttmunch · July 19th, 2006, 12:58 PM

Good point Bella, but then, these woman doesn't strike me as the brightest bulb on the tree.

PrettyGirl · July 19th, 2006, 07:16 PM

I always thought she was gorgeous. I like her.

I bought the issue. Christy Turlington has a photo spread and there are photos of a group of them together. Too lazy to go get issue from house.

Was nice not to see Jessica Simpson all titted up for a magazine.

ediebrooks · July 20th, 2006, 05:27 AM

I agree. I 'm sick of seeing Jessica Simpson and Lindsay Lohan on the covers of all the mags. Kate Beckinscale I'll make an exception for, because she is gorgeous.

Yeah, I would definetly prefer to see models.

ANTM actually kinda got me in to the thing, she'd always talk about posing, or showing emotion or whatever and i thought it was just hogwash to justify an industry where people take pictures of pretty people - but there is a talent.

Bellatheball · July 20th, 2006, 03:57 PM

^^ Oh SVZ, tell me you're kidding.

BTW, your avatar cracks me up every time I see it.

The girl who wouldn't get out of bed for less than 10 000 has been called lazy, arrogant, shallow, and thoughtless. Still, in her prime, she was the hottest strutter on the catwalk.

You're a wonder, Wonder Woman

I've always loved her; she was one of my fave supermodels, along w/ Vendela ( i think thats how you spell it ) and of course Helena Christianson (i know some of you don't like her, but i do somehow

)

Linda was known for being able to wear any hairstyle and she could; she always looked good in any hair color or shape, but especially the bob cut just above her chin, i'm always jealous of women who look so good in short hair!
