Kinda interesting?!?!

If you knew me you’d know that I’m constantly complaining about the current state of magazines. They have become so formulaic, straying from the unique covers of their vintage glory day. Considering my views on this it should come as no surprise that I am obsessed with these Vogue Australia vintage inspired covers of Cate Blanchett. Illustrated by David Downton and in honor of the magazines 50th anniversary down under, this is sure to be a September issue to remember.

Madonna has always been the epitome of reinvention, but her latest attempt at making herself over is leaving me feeling a little distrurbed. She’s kind of like the White Witch  in the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. At first you’re all like “Wow, Cate Blanchett is amazing in this. I have to get home to see The Aviator immediately!” and then the credits role and you realize you were watching her Oscar stealing evil dopplegangler Tilda Swinton and you cry yourself to sleep hoping she can’t invade your dream place like Freddy Kruger. (The worst part is when you realize she can).

Anyways Grandonna please stop spoiling my fantazy in which I believe you actually have some magic cure to aging (and death) by not killing/consuming the souls out of every photographer that shoots you. Seriously oldie, you have a reputation to maintain and that bitch Gaga is gaining speed.

True beauty Cate Blanchett was featured in a spread for the January issue of Image Magazine Thailand. The actress looks absolutely gorgeous with barely-there natural makeup and her free-flowing blond locks. Always fresh-faced, the talented Blanchett was a perfect choice cover girl for the magazine.

Annie Leibovitz worked her magic on the already sufficiently magical Cate Blanchett for the February 2009 issue of Vanity Fair.
