Photography by Annie Leibovitz

It all began in 1995 with 10 alluring beauties on a three-page foldout cover. With the latest hollywood issue fronted by fresh faces Emily Blunt, Amy Adams, Jessica Biel, and Anne Hathaway—Vanity Fair marks the 14th year of its gigantic annual Hollywood Issue, and thus the 14th year of Annie Leibovitz’s spectacular gatefold covers. These classic photographs capture Tinseltown talent and glamour like nothing else. Here’s a look back at all of them. (The left third of each image is what was visible on the cover before unfolding.) Sources/credits: V.F. website & ONTD .

Getting your photo portrait taken by Annie, is one of the biggest honors a celebrity can get, and these days, a very annoying young Disney star is sending apologies to the planet cause of her "naked" Annie Leibovitz's photo in the new V.F. issues, why is that?

This exhibition will take you on a journey along China’s coastal cities to experience the country’s creative landscape.

Here consumerism and urban culture have combined to produce astonishing fashion and lifestyles. Finally, we travel to Beijing, where monumental architecture for the Olympic Games is transforming the skyline of this ancient capital.

China Design Now explores China’s dreams and hopes over the last two decades, from individual designers to the nation as a whole. It is our hope that this exhibition will bring contemporary China closer to you.

Sean Opry in Paper Magazine "Beautiful People"

Model: Sean Opry
Magazine: Paper Magazine
Issue: April 2008 - Beautiful People Issue
Website: papermag.com

While some people use their MySpace profiles to hook up, last year 19-year-old Sean O'Pry's MySpace profile got him the ultimate hook up -- a modeling contract from agent Lana Winters of VNY Model Management. "You have to be careful that it's not someone spamming you," he says. "So I checked it out, and it turned out to be legit -- I thought, 'Why not?'"
Sean-O, as he's affectionately nicknamed by family, friends and industry folks, then traded in his Georgia peaches for the Big Apple and became an instant natural in front of the camera. As GQ Style's 2007 "Man for the Season," the fashion world has quickly embraced O'Pry with coveted campaigns for Calvin Klein, Dsquared2, Belstaff, Gianfranco Ferre and more. "[Modeling] is not like it is on TV," he noted. "TV makes it look so cheesy -- you don't just stand in front of the camera. You do get to interpret the clothes, and you actually get to act a little bit, which is fun." While O'Pry's traveling the globe for work, flinging around Italian slang or tasting exotic foreign cuisines, there is one thing this good ol' Southern boy still craves: "I miss Waffle House. I miss the Southern food the most." So what's up next for Sean-O? "I never really know what's next in my career. This is definitely a wild ride," he reflects. "Before everything was planned out, but after I started modeling, everything has been unexpected." Jin Moon Source TFS
