This story won’t really come as a surprise to many of you, especially, if like us, you think Cheryl Cole is stunning.

The troubled singer has just been voted as the world’s World’s Sexiest Woman for the second year in a row in FHM‘s annual poll.

Cheryl beat Jessica Alba, Megan Fox, who came second, and Angelina Jolie, who came a pitiful (no pun intended) 70 on the list, to regain her crown for the title which was voted for by readers of the magazine.

What do you think of the result? Does Cheryl deserve the crown or do you think there are others out there who are better? Let us know by leaving your comments below.

It’s going to be a busy few months for model du jour Agyness Deyn.

The starlet has signed up to design for the Japanese branch of Barneys where she has helped to produce a capsule collection of 11 items. And Agy hasn’t forgotten her green morals, a percentage of all the dresses, scarves and t-shirts from this will go to Go Green Go, which plants trees in inner Mongolia.

However, it doesn’t end there. The model has also announced she’ll be setting up an online fashion mag with former NME editor Fiona Byrne, who will act as editor-in-chief.

Naag.com will feature original photo and video content of Agyness, as well as articles on fashion, culture and travel written by their journalist friends.

The supermodel was photographed by Steven Klein flashing more than a bit of leg in a lilac halterneck gown. But nstead of the usual high fashion editorial inside, Christy is captured on location in Guatemala while on location shooting No Woman, No Cry, her documentary on motherhood in third world nations.

Andre Leon Talley once said that she should be a model, and ended up recruiting her for a national TV spot. Although it resulted in her falling on her backside in front of millions of morning show viewers, Whitney Port certainly has what it takes to step onto the runway.

Chanel Iman 2.jpgThe trend to employ famous faces as magazine interns continues with the news that Chanel Iman is now working at Teen Vogue.

Sienna Miller styles it up for Vogue, July ’09 issue

By Kimberley Foster on June 15th, 2009

siennamiller_july09_usvogue_pic1.jpg

She may have labelled “too toothy” by Anna Wintour once, but that hasn’t stopped the Vogue editor by featuring Sienna Miller on her cover for a second time. The British actress has landed the July ’09 cover of the glossy style bible. Given some serious hair extensions, Sienna looks slick in a one-shouldered custom red silk dress by Calvin Klein. Photographed by Craig McDean, she also wears designs by Alexander Wang, Nina Ricci and Gucci.

Check out more from her editorial, after the jump…

Bruce Willis’ daughter, Tallulah Belle, lands Harper’s Bazaar internship

By Kimberley Foster on June 12th, 2009

Tallulah Belle Willis_harpersbazaar.jpgIt certainly helps to have friends in high places, as we have previously seen with Sean Avery and Vogue. Now Bruce Willis and Demi Moore’s youngest daughter, Tallulah Belle Willis, has landed an internship at Harper’s Bazaar.

At only 15-years-old, Tallulah is working in the fashion department “shadowing” staff and attending resort appointments.

“We are thrilled to have her,” a Harper‘s spokesperson said.

So how did Tallulah score such a lucrative gig? Well, it seems hardly a coincidence that her mum, Demi, graced the April ’08 cover of Harper‘s. Ashton Kutcher has also written several essays for the glossy mag and the couple were spotted next to Glenda Bailey on the FROW at New York Fashion Week.

While she’s there, I wonder if Tallulah can have a quiet word to Glenda about the June ’09 issue.

Harper’s Bazaar criticized over Angelina Jolie “tabloid” cover

By Kimberley Foster on June 10th, 2009

harpersbazaar_us_angelinajolie_julyissue.jpgMuch has been made over that Harper’s Bazaar cover starring Angelina Jolie (pictured left) in the past few days. Everyone from readers to journalists to bloggers have been left unimpressed by the magazine’s decision to feature a photo agency picture of the actress on their July cover.

Indeed, even yours truly has been left rather stumped by this choice to use a Getty red carpet photo instead of the usual stylised photo-shoot image. As if that wasn’t strange enough, there isn’t even an interview with Ange inside the mag, just an essay written by Naomi Wolf about the actress. As some have put it, it’s bordering on tabloid.

Has Rihanna missed her Vogue opportunity?

By Kimberley Foster on June 1st, 2009

Jingle Ball Rihanna.jpgIt seems that Rihanna cover for Vogue is in jeopardy in the aftermath of those nude photos of her and Chris Brown that were recently leaked onto the internet.

The singing superstar was approached by Anna Wintour to star in an upcoming issue of the glossy mag. They were reportedly “thick as thieves” at the Met Costume Gala last month.

“Anna told her Vogue absolutely loves her and really wanted to work with her. Rihanna was ecstatic,” a source told Star magazine.

However, it is now believed that the editrix has retracted her offer in response to the photos that were allegedly taken by Brown, although he denies it.

“Anna hasn’t returned any of her calls. Rihanna’s so upset… She hopes the people at Vogue change their minds,” the source added.

And so their turbulent relationship has cost Rihanna again. Shame!

Cameron Diaz has surprised many a fashion follower by landing the June ’09 issue of Vogue. Criticisms are already flying about what the actress has done lately to warrant the highly sought after cover spot on the style bible. Regardless of this fact, Cameron sat down with the magazine to discuss the trials of shooting her latest film, My Sister’s Keeper, and her father’s sudden death last year.

“I think, emotionally … it definitely took its toll. Definitely. It’s the human experience. You know, that’s what the heart does. Things are given to us, and things are taken away. And I think the heart becomes stronger, more capable,” she said.

Anna Wintour and Vogue documentary rumored to hit Sundance Film Festival

By Kimberley Foster on December 2nd, 2008

FGI Night of Stars - Anna Wintour.jpgThe ole’ internet is buzzing today with reports that a Vogue documentary, filmed last year, is Sundance-bound.

The doco, directed by R.J. Cutler, follows the preparations for the magazine’s spring 2007 issue, and has a decent shot at making it to Sundance Film Festival, according to insiders.

Little else is known about the film, except that it is produced by A&E Indie Films, and has the full cooperation of Anna Wintour and her staff.

Does that mean Wintour on the big screen?

A spokesperson for Cutler could not confirm the news, but even so… how freakin’ exciting. We’re with NY Mag on this one – we want our Twilight-inspired fan T-shirts, stat!

Keira Knightley’s September ’08 cover for Vogue U.S. – revealed!

By Kimberley Foster on August 11th, 2008

Click image for a closer look.

Following dwindling sales in April and May, the pressure riding on the September ’08 issue of American Vogue has been fairly high. As previously reported, Anna Wintour chose Keira Knightley for the cover, which has been shot by Mario Testino. So far, public reaction to the cover hasn’t been favourable. Fashion fans don’t seem to be warming to the British actress and her messy hair, and not even her Balenciaga outfit is winning her much praise. This, coupled with the fact that the issue has slimmed down from 725 pages, from the same time last year, to 674 pages due to a drop in ad sales, and things don’t seem to be sitting too pretty right now for Wintour and co.
