Uma Thurman is the cover star of December's
InStyle, and inside the magazine she's interviewed about everything from her relationships to aging, acting and her stalking nightmare. You can read the interview in full in the magazine, but for now, here are
some excerpts:
- On her reputation: “I have a reputation for being aloof, but the truth is I’m initially intimidated by people. Get me started though and I won’t come up for air.”
- On her recent engagement to Swiss Financer Arpad Busson: “I know a lot will be written about it — most of it untrue I should add.
Earlier today I posted
my first gallery of a whole host of celebs who have been out and about at
New York Fashion Week over the past few days, and now it's time for part two. Mermaids (remember that?!) co-stars Winona Ryder and Christina Ricci sat next to Nicole Richie at DKNY, creating a gorgeous front row. Like Nicole,
Gossip Girl stars Jessica Szohr, Leighton Meester and Michelle Trachtenberg have also all been spotted at several events, the latter showing sexy curves in a Herve Leger dress.
One of my favourite natural beauty brands,
Ren, has just announced plans to expand. According to
WWD, the brand, which is
apparently also a favourite of Uma Thurman, is introducing a moisturising facial serum in 2009, as well as a line for children.
“We have loads in the pipeline,” Ren co-founder Antony Buck
told WWD, “We’ve been very encouraged by the performance of the brand in Australia, where it’s growing very fast.”
Just last month the gorgeous, and inaugural, Ren-designed department store counter was launched in Harvey Nichols in Manchester.

Lovely Agyness Deyn has topped the
Grazia best dressed list
for the second year running in the new issue, out today. Gwyneth Paltrow's most recent fashion-conscious look has got her into second place on the list, Sarah Jessica Parker is third and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is fourth. Daisy Lowe and American actresses Maggie Gyllenhaal (love her), Uma Thurman, Natalie Portman and Kate Hudson are also within the top ten.
New Yorkers were seeing double this weekend when actress Uma Thurman and her son Levon Roan, 6, left their apartment for the airport. Side by side, the flaxen-haired boy was the spittin' image of his statuesque mama. The two have the same pale eyes, sloped nose, strong cheek bones, and pursed lips.
It was a 90th birthday party to remember for Nelson Mandela, who went big for his star-studded celebration in London's Hyde Park yesterday. Will Smith managed to tear himself away from his non-stop
promotional tour of Hancock to catch up with his buddies Robert de Niro, Forest Whitaker and Denzel Washington, and of course to spend some time with Jada. There was no sign of Amy Winehouse, but Naomi Campbell was happy to provide the drama, showing up even though Nelson personally requested she be
removed from the guest list after her
recent legal issues.
Stars from both sides of the Atlantic joined Nelson Mandela in Hyde Park yesterday to celebrate his 90th birthday. Gordon Ramsay
prepared the banquet for the 500 guests, which included those due to
perform at tomorrow's concert, with Leona Lewis, Annie Lennox and the Sugababes all stunning in bright colours. Although Amy Winehouse wasn't there her spokesman has
said "it seems likely" she will perform on the night.
