Emily Blunt Tells InStyle John Krasinski "Changed My Life"

Emily Blunt rocks a bold look on the cover of the May issue of InStyle, which is available on newsstands this Friday, April 19.

Emily Blunt rocks a bold look on the cover of the May issue of InStyle, which is available on newsstands this Friday, April 19. She's prepping for a big month with the April release of Arthur Newman with Colin Firth. Next year will see another large project, All You Need Is Kill with Tom Cruise, hitting theaters. At the moment, Emily's enjoying downtime with her husband, John Krasinski, and their friends — John and Emily were guests of the Damons over the weekend, attending Matt and Luciana's wedding vow renewal in St. Lucia.

In the magazine, Emily talked about being happy at age 30, not getting too invested in Hollywood, and her marriage to John. Here are highlights from Emily in InStyle — and also check out how Emily's look has changed over the years!

  • On marriage: "Meeting John really changed my life. When I feel the support that I have from him, I feel invincible. There's someone behind you on your good days, and someone in front of you on your bad days."
  • On keeping her distance from Hollywood: "I see Hollywood as a bubble that you pop your head into every now and again. I never get fully immersed in it."
  • On starring with Tom Cruise in All You Need Is Kill: "It's my first action movie. I wouldn't want any other initiation than with Tom Cruise allowing me to kick his butt."
  • On being 30: "Thirty sounds appropriate to me. I feel I haven't anything to prove anymore, so I'm excited. I'm ready for what's next."

The Ladies of Oz Team Up For a Glamorous March Cover

Oz: The Great and Powerful hits theaters next month and the leading ladies of the classic children's story reboot are promoting the project with InStyle's March issue.

Oz: The Great and Powerful hits theaters next month and the leading ladies of the classic children's story reboot are promoting the project with InStyle's March issue. Rachel Weisz, Mila Kunis, and Michelle Williams posed together for a glamorous shot and spilled about filming and family. Michelle touched on life with boyfriend Jason Segel while Rachel shared her favorite part of working with Michelle. Mila, who has been sticking close to Ashton Kutcher, talked about her tricky costumes. Here's more from Michelle, Rachel, and Mila in InStyle:

  • Michelle on Jason: "He is nice . . . I didn't actually realize who he was before I started dating him. I mean, I saw the Muppets movie, and I thought, 'Oh, that's cute,' but the truth is I didn't realize he made a lot of very popular, funny movies or was on a TV show. But maybe more important, I didn't realize he was so tall. I thought, 'Hey, man, you're cramping my style!' I tried wearing wedge heels for a while to compensate, but it wasn't me and I just gave up."
  • Rachel on the best part of filming: "Michelle's daughter and my son are about the same age, so they went to camp together, and we took them bowling. It was really fun for me and Michelle too, because you don't get that many mommy playdates in our business."
  • Mila on her costumes: "I spent a lot of the shoot in a leather corset, wired up in a harness, and flying around in a costume that weighed 10 pounds. I hear some women enjoy wearing a corset, but tell them to try 17 hours of that and then get back to me."

    Amanda Seyfried Talks Sexy Channing and Managing Her OCD in InStyle

    Amanda Seyfried strikes a pose for the January 2013 cover of InStyle.

    Amanda Seyfried strikes a pose for the January 2013 cover of InStyle. Inside, Les Misérables star Amanda talked about her career — and a great deal more! She spoke with the publication before hitting the red carpet in Alexander McQueen at last night's NYC premiere of Les Misérables. Amanda talked to InStyle about just how sexy her Dear John costar Channing Tatum is, and touched on having OCD and the perils of dating famous guys. Here are highlights from Amanda Seyfried in InStyle:

    • On dating actors: "I can't date anybody without it being portrayed as a serious relationship in the tabloids. It sucks! Like Josh Hartnett and I were friends; we hung out, we dated. I don't actually have sex with every male I come into contact with. . . . I'm just more attracted to actors. I like their choice to be artists — that's ballsy. And a guy who has such access to his emotional life is sexy. Or maybe because lots of the actors I know are so broken. I don't think I'm compatible with anybody I've dated."
    • On Channing Tatum: "Channing was amazing. He's a superstar. . . . Everybody wants to have sex with him. And the only person he wants to have sex with is his wife, Jenna. He's the most loyal husband."
    • On managing her OCD: "I'm too measured and controlling — about everything. That's why I take Lexapro. It's for OCD. I don't feel like I'm struggling with it. I think OCD is a part of me that protects me. It's also the part of me that I use in my job, in a positive way. . . . I have to do lots of things at the same time. It's an obsessive-compulsive thing. So when I'm on the elliptical machine, which I do almost every day, I have to be knitting, playing Soduku, and listening to something."

    Gwyneth's First Thoughts on Apple: "You Are Here to Teach Me Everything"

    Gwyneth Paltrow strikes a pose in purple for the October issue of InStyle, which hits newsstands this Friday, Sept.

    Gwyneth Paltrow strikes a pose in purple for the October issue of InStyle, which hits newsstands this Friday, Sept. 21. Inside the publication, Gwyneth spoke about turning the big 4-0 later this month on Sept. 27, her family, and her much-scrutinized diet with interviewer Diane von Furstenberg. Gwyneth and Diane also talked about the GOOP empire, and the associated city guides Gwyneth's created. Here are highlights from Gwyneth Paltrow in InStyle:

    • On turning 40: "I'm taking stock and really looking at everything. I'm trying to accept myself. There's a Rumi poem, 'The Guest House,' about welcoming in all aspects of yourself: the dark, the light, the jealous, the happy. Let them all in. But know that you're not defined by any single one of them. I've become much more serious after experiencing all the ups and downs of life — heartbreak, the death of people I love. . . . These days I feel pretty grounded."
    • On her kids: "When Apple was born, she had the hugest blue eyes. I looked into them, and she was looking at me, and I felt like, 'You are here to teach me everything.' After [Moses] was born I had postpartum depression. It was a difficult time, and because of that I believe I have an extra empathy for him, and he for me."
    • On her diet: "I was very strict for a while. I was macrobiotic for a couple of years, then I got pregnant and just ate ice cream. What I've learned is I want to enjoy my life, and food is a big part of it. I love to cook and feed people. I cook every day. I [indulge] but I don't like sweets. My indulging is a fresh baguette with cheese and a glass of red wine or french fries and fried zucchini. Or a turkey burger."
