>> Carine Roitfeld left Vogue Paris at the end of January, but she hasn't stayed away from glossies for long: She's working on what is reportedly a cover story and fashion spread for V magazine's September 2011 issue. Roitfeld styled V's very first cover featuring Jude Law back in 1999, and Stephen Gan confirmed last Thursday that she recently asked if she could come back to work for the magazine: “My stage is always open to her and she can perform anytime she wants to on it. She wants it to be a surprise, but it’s for the September issue. We leave for Europe tomorrow, and we will work with Mario Testino. That’s all I can say.” Roitfeld is rumored to have collaborated with the magazine on several issues, including a project with Karl Lagerfeld. [WWD, NY Post]

Britney Spears made a splash on the cover of the Spring V Magazine, which is out on newsstands tomorrow. She was photographed by Mario Testino in multiple skimpy ensembles for the spread, which is in the same issue that features very sexy Gisele. Britney's promoting Femme Fatale, which is one of BuzzSugar's must haves for March, following the success of her first single, "Hold It Against Me." She opened up about working on the "best album" she has ever made, her boys, and fame. Here's more:

  • On if she thinks she was destined to be a star: "If not, then God definitely has a strange sense of humor."
  • On what she'd do if she stopped making music: "I'd be a full-time mom which would be cool. I'd miss my fans and all of the love the most, but I definitely would not miss having my picture taken everywhere I go. I wouldn't miss showering in arenas either. So gross!"
  • On her legacy: "Two amazing boys and a lot of music that hopefully brings a lot of people a lot of happiness."
  • On her other interests: "I love to cook, especially for my boys. I also make a mean southern sweet tea from a recipe my mom passed on to me. It's really good. I love it. I make it for my boys all the time."
  • On fame: "I don't think I thought about 'fame' when I was a child. I knew I wanted to perform and I knew I wanted to be on stage but I don't think I ever thought about fame or what comes with being famous."
