Dakota Johnson is the cover star of Vogue’s October issue. The Hollywood actress opened up about a period of change in her life as she enters her 36th year.

Following the end of her eight-year relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, Johnson has moved into a new home in Los Angeles, is focusing on her work and her production company and admits that she now wants to approach her priorities somewhat differently.

Johnson revealed that after nearly 20 years of working constantly on film sets, she began to feel that it was time to slow down a little. But her desire for a different pace is not simply the result of professional exhaustion. For the first time, the actress spoke openly about motherhood and her wish to have a family of her own.

«Things haven’t worked out the way I thought they would. I really want children. I didn’t expect to find myself here at this age and at this stage of my life. But maybe that’s the universe’s plan. I hope I’ll be lucky», the star shared.

At the same time, the actress does not see her situation as something to regret: «It’s okay. I’m continuing to learn more and more and becoming a more whole woman.»

Despite wanting to slow down, Johnson has no plans to step away from filmmaking altogether. One of her important projects is «Three Incestuous Sisters», directed by Alice Rohrwacher, in which she stars alongside Saoirse Ronan, Jessie Buckley and Josh O’Connor.

The film was shot on the Italian island of Stromboli. Dakota describes the experience as «deeply soulful and creative» and says it was exactly how she had always imagined working in film — as a safe space where artists can be free and experiment.

Another project is the thriller «Verity», based on Colleen Hoover’s novel. Johnson stars alongside Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett.

The actress revealed that director Michael Showalter encouraged her to embrace an unusual, almost theatrical approach to her performance.

«It was so much fun, and our reference points and sources of inspiration were erotic thrillers that you watch and think, “This is ridiculous” — but at the same time, you’re incredibly intrigued», she recalled.

Johnson also spoke about her public image. She has long been known as a calm and somewhat reserved woman who can respond to journalists with a touch of irony. The actress explained that this behavior became a kind of defense mechanism against constant public attention.

In reality, she says, she is far from as detached as she may appear.

«I care very deeply about a lot of things. I wouldn’t say I’m “cool”. What does that even mean? I just want to be real», the actress added.

American pop superstar and designer Rihanna has become the cover star of EE72’s summer issue, showcasing a series of striking looks inspired by African queens from different historical eras.

The creative concept was developed by Edward Enninful, the magazine’s founder and one of the most influential figures in the global fashion industry.

According to Enninful, the creative team drew inspiration not only from portraits of African monarchs but also sought to create something far more meaningful than a traditional fashion editorial.

«Rihanna does not follow trends – she shapes the culture we live in. For this cover, we wanted to draw on her profound understanding of fashion and art to create a truly majestic project», the editor explained.

For the fashion story photographed by Silvester Mako, the 38-year-old singer – who recently welcomed her third child – modelled a range of vibrant creations from some of the world’s leading luxury fashion houses. The editorial features designs by Schiaparelli, Valentino, Givenchy, Dior, Chanel, Bottega Veneta, Alaïa, Alexander McQueen, Wolford and Giuseppe Zanotti.

The stars of the iconic sitcom «Friends», Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow, have shared the spotlight once again three decades later. The actresses became the featured guests of a new edition of the «Actors on Actors» project by  Variety and graced its cover together.

During their candid conversation, the two stars reflected not only on their latest projects but also on their time filming «Friends», which remains an important chapter in their lives to this day.

One of the most emotional moments came when 62-year-old Lisa Kudrow revealed that the third and final season of «The Comeback» was filmed on the very same Warner Bros. studio lot where «Friends» was once produced.

«I can’t even express how emotional it made me. I realised that it was the end of a story – and that this was the very place where the story of «Friends» had once come to an end», the actress shared.

Another detail proved equally symbolic. Julian, Lisa Kudrow’s son, whom she was expecting during the filming of «Friends», was cast in the final season of «The Comeback» – on that very same studio lot.

«It was an incredible surprise for me. He grew up hearing the laughter on that soundstage, and now he has become part of it himself», added the 57-year-old Aniston.

As a reminder, «Friends» premiered in 1994 and went on to become one of the most successful television series in history. The roles of Rachel Green and Phoebe Buffay brought Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow worldwide fame, while their real-life friendship has endured for more than three decades.

In 2022, Meghan Markle was set to be the main feature of the British edition of Vogue, but the issue never materialized due to the duchess’s excessive demands.

«Meghan wanted to choose the photographer herself, approve the writer, have final editorial control, oversee the photos, and insisted on appearing on both the UK and US covers simultaneously. No one had ever made such demands before – not even Beyoncé», a source told Page Six.

The insider also shared that Meghan later initiated a Zoom call with Anna Wintour to present her ideas:

«Anna wasn’t interested. The magazine had already chosen its cover star – Serena Williams. Anna spoke to Meghan only out of politeness».

However, another source insists Meghan never made such demands and that, in fact, Vogue had approached her several times about appearing on the cover, particularly after her wedding to Prince Harry.

For the record, Adele remains the only celebrity to have graced the covers of both British and American Vogue simultaneously, in 2021.

Melania Trump, wife of former U.S. President Donald Trump, has become the star of the latest issue of Hello, appearing on two digital covers – one in color and one in black and white.

The former First Lady did not give an interview herself, but instead, three members of her team spoke with the editorial team: stylist and designer Hervé Pierre, official photographer Régine Mahaux, and interior designer Tham Kannalikham. They shared their impressions of working with the 54-year-old wife of the former U.S. leader and spoke about her personality and image during her husband’s potential second presidential term.

According to her team, Melania Trump is a determined yet warm woman who is content with her role in her marriage and family. Her priority remains Donald and their 18-year-old son, Barron.

«She is always in the right place. She always stands behind her husband. He is in the spotlight, and she doesn’t need the light. She is an excellent number two. Her husband always comes first, and I admire that about her. She has strong family values – being a good wife and ensuring everyone is happy», shared photographer Mahaux.

Stylist Hervé Pierre noted that Melania Trump is always kind to the staff.

«She will make you coffee herself. If you imagine her as a woman surrounded by servants, you are mistaken», he assured.

Meanwhile, interior designer Tham Kannalikham highlighted Melania’s quiet strength and devotion to her husband:

«There is something about her – she is a strong woman – but at the same time, she has a soft power. She balances her husband very well… She is devoted. She loves him, and he loves her».
