5 Magazine Covers to End 2009 andor Start 2010 ...

Reading many celebrity blogs every day, I have found out that people either really like or intensely dislike Natalie. It's rare to find someone who is entirely neutral about her. And those who love or hate her do so for the same reasons. I have decided to show this photo instead of the cover that the magazine chose. The cover photo is just ugly, really. But this photo has got that Audrey Hepburn vibe, doesn't it? Beautiful.

Penelope brings on the heat for this interview and spread for the magazine. Nine co-start Marion Cotillard interviews her about her inspirations and when she caught the acting bug. Penelope admits that she's also quite the fangirl of Meryl Streep. She reveals, "As an actress, I really love people like Anna Magnani and Debra Winger. I also think there is nobody better than Meryl Streep. I watch her movies over and over again — I saw Silkwood again a couple of weeks ago, and it made me just want to kiss her feet. We only know each other from seeing each other at awards ceremonies or those kinds of events, but whenever I see her, I always go up to her and start kissing her. I don’t even say anything—I just kiss her. She must think I’m some crazy person."

Britney and Lady Gaga grace Elle this January for a dual cover. Photo above is Britney's cover. Don't the boys look cute? And it looks like Jayden is playing with a piece of jewelry (his mom's, presumably). Adorable, yes?

Elisabetta Canalis who, you ask? I had no idea either until George Clooney started dating her. Apparently, she is a model/TV presenter. I find the cover funny, with the magazine calling her "Fraulein Clooney." Isn't it a bit insulting to be known only as some famous actor's girl when you are a celebrity, too? Wait, what am I thinking? If I were Clooney's girl, I would not mind if people forget my name and just call me "his girl." Anyway, I think Elisabetta is pretty. She looks a bit like Cindy Crawford, right?

Johnny is one of the top 15 entertainers of the decade, according to Entertainment Weekly. I wholeheartedly agree. I would not mind being stranded on an island if I had all of his movies to keep me company. Johnny Depp himself would also be welcome, of course.
