Here is the cover for Cosmopolitan’s April issue, with cover girl Olivia Wilde. I like her in pink (the outfit is Michael Kors, by the way). I wouldn’t think she would look so awesome in this color, but it really works on her. What I dislike is the Photoshopped boobs. I mean… Olivia is pretty flat. She’s got a nice, lean body and I doubt she even fills an A-cup in real life. So why did Cosmo Photoshop some B-cups in there? Eh. Anyway, here are some highlights from the Cosmo interview:
On her embarrassing moment with President Obama: “He was calling to thank me for traveling to Iowa in October 2007 to volunteer for the campaign. I was very professional the whole time we spoke, then I hung up the phone- or so I thought- and started squealing for about 15 seconds. I later found out from a friend who was with him that he listened to the shrieking and laughed the entire time.”
On the character she’d like to play next: “In the past year or so, I’ve played really strong women. Next, I’d like to explore someone who is more open – a woman who has to learn to fight.”
On what makes the perfect leading man: “They have to have a sense of humor and humility. You really have to have a sense of humor; it’s so important. When I think of guys like Daniel Craig and Garrett Hedlund, what’s made them so great is their ability to seem extraordinary but also relatable.”
The words that she lives by: “From a young age, my mantra has always been to live in the moment. I try to do everything in the spirit of enthusiasm and spontaneity.”

Some days I like Olivia – I think she seems kind of fun and down-to-earth, and pretty harmless in general. Other days, she plucks my last nerve. This is one of those days. You know who she’s talking about with “I’d like to explore someone who is more open – a woman who has to learn to fight,” right? She wants to be the new Lara Croft! Ugh. And stop name-dropping Daniel Craig and President Obama too! I guess she can no longer drop “I’M A PRINCESS” into everyday conversation, so she’s trying to work her connections to other people now.

The macrame top is totally trashy. Looks like a leftover shot from a Playboy shoot. Ugh.
cosmo seriously needs to change up their acticles. yup shes kind of annoying but very pretty in these pics
Is anyone else amused that the words ‘Gyno News’ have been strategically placed over her crotch?
Olivia looks beautiful on the cover, but she still bores me.
The deliberate placement of the ‘Gyno News’ headline is so tasteless.
Way to keep it classy, Cosmo.
I don’t understand what people see in her. She’s not attractive (in my opinion) but that wouldn’t be so bad if she could act. I saw her in Tron (my first film with her) and she was so wooden, it really brought down the film’s overall quality a lot. As for her statements, they are so run-of-the-mill. Just blah.
And the boobs? I don’t think they’re photoshopped. My guess is: lots of invisible tape and a good contouring makeup job.
I know neither can I, I mean what so great about her, I mean sure she is beautiful, smart, a brilliant actress and actually thinks about other human beigns but she’s just so meh? But, wait, she is brilliant, people like her because unlike most of the other morons in Hollywood she actually has some brains. And again why are people judging ehr on looks.
SHE WAS NOT WOODEN IN TRON, look did you watch the film or go in watch the first two seconds decide you missed facebook to much and spend the rest of the time on your phone? Because thats the only conculsion I can come too because in tron she played a brilliant character and was certainly not wooden.
And I think I have finally identified the reason why you don’t think she’s a good actress because you are a moron :).
I mean she can act in a whole variety of genres drama (House), action (In Time/ Tron), Comedy (the change up) and horror (Turistas). That doesn’t relaly translate as bad actor to me. And perhaps she keeps getting picked for these big films because…. SHE CAN ACT. Just out of interest how many blockbuster films have you acted in, I bet the biggest part you’ve had was that dodgy birthday party video from when you were 8, and your best acting was pretending to like the socks your gran got you. So, and please don’t take offence to this I don’t think your in much of a place to judge on acting skills.
AND WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP FIXATING ON HER BREAST SIZE. Congratulations you’ve identified she has breasts now how about growing up and actually look at other parts of her body like her beautiful smile or her amazing hair.
I guess to summarise…
STOP BEING A MORON, EITHER GROW A BRAIN OR GO BACK TO WATCHING THAT SPONGEBOB MARATHON ON TV AND LAUGHING AT HIS UNDERPANTS.
Have a nice day
On the Cover: 50 Ways To Seduce A Man (In a minute or less)
I can’t unhook my bra in 2 seconds so I have no chance of performing the other 49 in less than a minute. What’s the hurry?
Ugh this is a tv girl at best! Not gonna happen as a movie star. She doesnt have that it factor
Oddly, she really looks like Denise Richards to me on the cover shot.
she’s very photogenic. just googled hgb…she’s 89 now. wow.
Is it just me or there way too many headlines on the cover? I don’t have any feelings about Olivia but I don’t understand why she’s so big all of the sudden.
i still dont know who she is or what shes done.
she’s so over-exposed. she’s almost as bad as Bieber.
I believe she went to the “Twilight School of Acting”
And I believe you are a moron who spends more time falling asleep in films to bother watching them properly. And I’m guessing your definition of a good Actor are the people from desperate houswives who spend entire episodes moaning about how hard they find it to not cheat on their unrealistically fit husbands. See olivia actually chooses decent films/ tv shows to act in, and of course you would never watch them because it requires far too much effort to actually put the double XL fries down, pick up the remote and press a button I MEAN THAT REQUIRES AT LEAST 3 CALORIES!! to change the channel off the Jeremony Kyle show.
Anyway my advice
GO WATCH PROPER TV
good day my dear friend
🙂
not to nitpick, but she was ASKED about her recent costars, so how is it “namedropping” to to mention them?
I have no real issue with Olivia. She’s nice enough and completely harmless at the moment.
Liking the cover, but it is like placing a big X by her vadge with that ‘Gyno News/birth control heading’. OMG the excessive boob photoshop – that was so tacky.
I noticed that all the comments were from women so I would like to add my two cents. I think Olivia Wild is going to be a HUGE star. I could state for a fact that I would crawl over broken glass to get to her. I have never understood why women like Robert Pattison or Richard Gere. I am a guy and I want her in the worst way. That is all. 🙂
And there are gyno news right over Wilde’s vagina…
Not only did they photoshop her boobs, they photoshopped her face a bunch, and IMO, it does not look good.
She looks way too much like Denise Richards for me.
@Rita – You are too funny about rushing to seduce a man.
And @MichaelKelly – I don’t think women like Robert Pattinson. I think only twihards do and they don’t count as human.
do you think they could have written gyno news somewhere other than over her crotch??
I don’t think her boobs were photoshopped – my guess is one of those memory foam bras from Vicky’s that adds 2 cups.
Technically, she couldn’t call herself a “princess” even when she WAS married for two important reasons:
(1) Italy hasn’t recognized “royal” families since the mid-20th century, decades before she and her ex were even born; and
(2) Her ex was illigitimate. Even IF Italy still have royal and princely families (which they don’t, but let’s say IF) he would definitely NOT be a prince because that title could not pass to illigitimate children.
But I guess most people don’t know this, so she felt safe in giving herself airs and undeserved titles. That is so trashy.
She does not care anymore for the “title” I believe. She wants “to sow her wild oats” as I read it somewhere. She just wants to have fun.
@LondonLady
“do you think they could have written gyno news somewhere other than over her crotch??”
It isn’t very appetizing, is it? My dad is a gyno connoisseur. He’s always on the look out for one where ever he goes and when he finds a good one, he’s no gentleman about it. He dives right in an lets the juices run down his chin. It’s almost embarrassing to watch him eat it.
I prefer the lamb over beef but I always get extra Tzatziki sauce.
I think she is purdy. And down to earth. And I have never sensed her name dropping ….I may love her.
I don’t know that she necessarily meant that she wants to be a part of the Lara Croft franchise by saying she wants to play women who “learn to fight”. Is she actually signed on to play that part? If so, that’s probably the dumbest move she can make. Those movies sucked and I can’t see how she’ll make it any better a third time around.
Olivia is starting to remind me of Goopy, what with her name dropping Obama like that. Yes, we get it Olivia, you are an important person.
And I’ve never thought she was pretty. Her face just seems…off to me.
I agree she can be annoying. But I like her. Even when she’s annoying, she always looks like there’s someone home behind her eyes.
Her hair could use a trim.
Why do I get the feeling that if it were Gerard Butler or Michael Fassbender who mentioned Daniel Craig and Obama (a story which has her being an adorable dork), you’d think it was awesome as opposed to thinking it shameless namedropping?
I think she is very, very beautiful but a pretty meh actress — at least on House (I don’t think I’ve seen any of her movies). But, truth is, she’s pretty enough that she doesn’t need to be *that* talented. But I agree with her getting on one’s nerves — there is something very disingenuous about her, imo.
Also agree that the macrame top is trashy.
@ Rita…
um, how do I put this..I think “gyno” is a shortened version of “gynecology” or “gynecologist”. not a reference to the delicious greek sandwich.
i was wondering why you would share so much about your father…;)
I really think she meant she’d like to play someone who ‘learns to fight’ as in the characters she’s played were fighters already, and she’s like to portray someone finding their strength.
And I agree with kazza about the name dropping. If it was an actress you liked you’d give them as pass. It’s almost like you don’t think she’s worthy, which I kinda get, but I think with that face and a few acting classes she could be a big star.
Imagine if Meagan Fox or Jessica Beil said something like ‘You’re young, you’re drunk, you’re in bed, you have knives; shit happens’. You’d rip them to shreds for being punk wanna-be-badass posers, and you wouldn’t be wrong.
I don’t particularly care for her, but she wasn’t ‘name dropping’ in my opinion. (At least not this time.) I agree with Cherry Rose, something looks a little ‘off’ about her face.
She seems to be going more for the type of ‘sexy’ a man is going to respond to… as opposed to the type of ‘sexy’ women respond to. She always looks like she’s posing for a men’s magazine, even in Cosmo.
Eh, don’t feel too strongly either way. I’ve never seen her acting, though.
Yawn. I look forward to having her disappear, like so many mediocre “actresses” before her.
I don’t even know who this name-dropper is.
Never heard of her. Not even interested in
Googling her…moving along now.
In the bottom two pictures the first person I thought of was Daisy Duke from the Dukes of Hazard, she looks just like her to me in those pics.
I watched TRON with my BF and had to ask him what he thought of Olivia. first thing he said is; her NOSE is ugly! (in motion, it is kinda odd btw). Upon my insistence that shes HOT regardless of nose issues, he claimed that her face is nothing special, and that a pretty face is equally, if not MORE important than a good body!
(so ha! there goes that theory women believe, that men will fuck anything that walks!)
PS: he really liked that OTHER blonde actress in the movie. (dont ask me who she is cuz i have no idea)
@Rita
I was getting a really horrific image about your dad…good thing you added the bit about the Tzatziki sauce!:-)(Think you meant gyro)
I think she’s gorgeous, but she doesn’t have much personality. Oh well. She does look smokin on the cover.
She’s not that pretty imo, but she lacks any type of facial expression in her acting. Annoying and her photo shoots are always too revealing.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA @RITA HAHAHAHA.. thanks for the laugh
Somtimes I think she looks like an alien. You know one of those in the movies that mesmerize the men before eating their heads?
But I think she looks normal pretty here.
Oh and Cosmo always gives their cover girl more cleavage.
I actually miss her on House. I hate “Huddy” and I hate Amber what’s her name’s character. Now they have no choice but to focus on Dr. Tau (sp?) and his problems, which I don’t care about AT ALL. And I think Chase’s slut storyline is out of character with who he was before.
OMG! Rita! Did you deliberately confuse Gyno with Gyro? I can picture “juices running down his face” and it’s not pretty! I’m still snickering.
I like her, she doesn’t seem entitled and most often comes across as down to earth, and gotta say, she is beautiful.
Sorry guys,,, [read: gals;] but Olivia Wilde IS beautiful.
See, beauty is actually NOT in the eye of the beholder. The standard for beauty in both males and females is still beholden to European renaissance specs. And, Olivia’s face has GOT IT. She’s got FACE all over the board… lips, eye shape, eye size, eye placement, coloring, forehead to chin ratio… etc.
On to her acting. As a House fanatic, I can honestly say that her efforts on the show often confuse the viewer, sometimes conflict w/ her character’s storyline, and ALWAYS seem inconsequential. Ah well, ya can’t have everything!
You could definitely see your expertise within the work you write. The world hopes for even more passionate writers such as you who are not afraid to mention how they believe. At all times follow your heart.
