gwen does elle.

on whether lady gaga, rihanna, and katy perry have taken a page out of her playbook when it comes to style: “really? i don’t see myself in those girls. i usually put pants on. i see these girls as more going for the sex-symbol thing. i was more, in the band, like a tomboy. of course, i think every girl is sexy, so there’s going to be a little of that. but i see a lot of younger artists going more toward the sexy thing.” love her. dress is givenchy by riccardo tisci / may issue

gabby sidibe does elle.

am i the only one a little shocked that she made the october cover? do you like?

it should probably be noted that this is a multi-cover issue. in honor of elle magazine's 25th birthday, they are featuring several (25?) stars to grace their "favorite 25-somethings" issue.
