Renee Zellweger, Julianne Moore.

Robin...Wright Penn? Zoe...Bell? Emily...Blunt? Julie...Andrews? If I have to guess, Elle, they might not be first name basis cover material, you know? #elle

"Why you love guys who are bad for you...p 266."

Maybe some publicist didn't think it was a good idea to have this drawn across Katie Holmes' arms. #elle

I've worked as a cleaning lady to make ends meet. If an employer barred me from using a tool that made my job easier in order to appease some retarded sense of environmental altruism, her toothbrush would get a couple of swishes in the toilet. #vogue

The idea of working without pay on an organic farm is enough to give someone a brain cloud just thinking about it. Farmworkers don't have it bad enough already without Vogue do gooders taking their jobs? I need a drink. #vogue

@krismry: To be fair, wwoofing is pretty popular among my demographic: broke college students looking for something to do during break. A lot of family farms (they're not entirely extinct yet) actually count on employing wwoofers during the summer. #vogue

@gwenhwyfar: Yeah, my brother did this last summer on an organic farm a couple of hours outside of the city where we live. He actually did it partially in preparation for the Master's in environmental science that he's now pursuing. He worked for room and board and had the best summer of his whole life, and I think he may end up with an organic farm of his own one day. #vogue

@yearofthewoman: Just to confirm what everyone else has been saying. Friends of mine have spent long summers travelling around France one farm at a time via the wwoofing network. You get to live a lifestyle and in a place that most 'tourists' never get to see, receive bed and board in exchange for your work. So while it doesn't pay anything, it doesn't cost anything, and you can have a virtually free trip. #vogue

I interviewed Robert Swan Tuesday - the author of Antartica 2041 - and he told me we should be calling our utility providers and insisting that our power come from green sources. I had NO idea this was even possible. He did say it c/would cost a bit more - my mother said she was going to do so immediately - need to check and find out if it is indeed an option. #vogue

I'm looking forward to reading Sally Singer's maid's article in Scullery Weekly called "How to Nod and Smile at the Missus, Then Use the Mop That Works Best When She's Out Shopping for More Environmental Fuckery" by Diane Smith a.k.a. Whatsherface the Puerto Rican or Something #vogue

"Environmentalism isn't the only cause Singer champions. After educating her cleaning lady on the t-shirt mop's benefits, she quickly slipped into vintage Oscar De La Renta and sped off on her bike to chair the annual Graft vs. Host Benefit Gala, held at the Waldorf Astoria."

This issue just takes the cake. I cannot even begin to comment on all the nonsense that has been pointed here and elsewhere about this issue.
I flipped through it in line at BN last night and my son thought I was having a stroke. #vogue
