HAHAHA. I’m sorry, I just read the coverline for Ashley Greene’s November cover of Marie Claire. Hahahaha. “What’s next for the world’s most beautiful vampire?” FOR REAL. How could Marie Claire’s editors use that without chuckling to themselves? “Ha, check this out, Maude. Ashley Greene’s publicist is making us put ‘beautiful’ in the coverline. HA!!” You know what else is great? Ashley is now trying to take a page out of Blake Lively’s famewhore girl-guide: the interview takes place during a private cooking lesson, with Ashley emphasizing her amazing culinary skills. Ashley Greene = the new Blake Lively? I could see it. The article also mentions Ashley’s extraordinary, breathtaking, mind-numbing beauty many, many times, and even compares her (favorably) to Scarlett Johansson and Anne Hathaway. You really have to wonder what they’re smoking at Marie Claire, right? Anyway, some highlights:
On Kristen Stewart’s affair with Rupert Sanders: “That is off-limits,” she says sternly, adding with emphasis, “really.” (The studio is rumored to have put a gag order on all the Twilight stars, though at last check the couple appear to be reconciling.)
The early Hollywood years: When she arrived in Los Angeles at 17, Greene was just another super-pretty model-actress who paid her dues waiting tables, booking bit parts in middling shows like Crossing Jordan and MADtv, and befriending other attractive up-and-comers, like Gossip Girl’s Jessica Szohr. “It was definitely hard,” Greene recalls, methodically pinching the edges of her tart crust. “But nothing positive comes out of being bitter. You just have to keep on working.”
On being on the celebrity fast track: “It was a hard adjustment going from zero to 100 in a day. But it was also hard to talk to [friends], because you don’t want to be a jerk. After the movie [Twilight] came out, some people said, ‘You changed.’ And I said, ‘I haven’t changed, dude. Your opinion of me has changed because I’m working on this film.’ Trust me, my parents would let me know.
On the challenge of focusing on both career and personal life: “I’m always here and there – everyone in my industry is – and that’s why a lot of relationships are fleeting. I’ve gotten very good at detaching whenever I have to go away for three months, which I realize is hard on friends and kind of selfish. You go on a couple of dates, and then someone ships off to do a movie. It’s not like you’re going to fly out and see them, because it’s not serious enough for that.”
On traveling first-class for Twilight and being a working actress: “Twilight has ruined me. When this is all over, flying internationally is going to be very hard for me. It is just not worth it to buy a first-class ticket, because of the cost. I’m lucky because my dad taught me to be frugal and save. And that’s important because I want to know that I don’t have to take an acting job for two or three years if I don’t want to and that I’ll still be able to make my house and car payments and buy food for my dogs.”
I love that Ashley always get the questions about how her life has changed because of the enormous success of the Twilight franchise, and Ashley consistently answers those questions like she’s got the starring role, like she’s playing Bella and in her mind, all of the Twihards really do care about her and not Kristen Stewart. And she could have slid some dirt in there about Robsten, but she avoided taking the bait. I don’t know how I feel about that – I probably would have yelled at her if she had said something harsh, but I would have secretly loved it. I can’t wait for Kellan “Kellan Lutz” Lutz to get questions about Robsten. It will be epic!

Linda compensates for that with real modeling talent and amazing eyes.
Ashley is bland and the pics scream amateur model. My opinion certainly won’t matter to a girl who’s a legend in her own mind.

Evangelista? I wrote her off as soon as that dumb bimbo said she wouldn’t get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day. Yeah, that was her.

She came across as rather cold and unfriendly in interviews. There were also reports that she could be whiny. That does not take away from the evidence that she was a very good model. Designers were willing to pay her and Cindy, Christy, Naomi (who’s far worse in character) thousands a day because they delivered. Linda and the other supermodels took charge of their careers, ran with it, and became millionaires instead of being exploited, underpaid and discarded like so many other models. Call her arrogant, call her unlikeable. That’s fine. But dumb she is not. And Ashley is relatively harmless, but still mediocre.

@LeslieM, you know, sometimes faces are naturally asymmetrical. I think its natural, and I really like that she hasn’t gotten it “fixed.”

@LeslieM Actually, the more symmetrical your face is the more likely you had something fixed. Our bodies are never symmetrical. I’ve seen old photos of hers and her nose has always looked the same.

the cover looks drawn. and poor girl, she’s trying-but I think she believes she’s far more important than she is..wasn’t there a blind about her and Michael Bay?
Report this comment as spam or abuse
The general consensus seems to be that the Michael Bay blind was her. He was stringing her along, dangling a role in front of her curiously shaped nose and made her drop X pounds to be considered.
Now, whatever they’re smoking at Marie Claire – GIMME. I’m having a weird old day.
Ashley is certainly a pretty girl but there are ten-a-penny of her in Hollywood. She’s neither unique enough nor talented enough to really make waves.

Wow, her PR people must have paid off that Marie Claire writer.
So tired of fashion magazines using mediocre starlets as cover models. Bring back real models who know how to pose like their life depended on it.
ITA Kaiser, Ashley played a forgettable supporting role in a crappy overhyped franchise. She’s deluded if she thinks this will translate into an A-List acting career post Twilight. I have yet to see her demonstrate any acting skills.

I wonder what the thinking was when they did the casting for Twilight…
“Let’s find a bunch of actors who have never really acted in much and see if we can make a great movie out of it, shall we? No, no, no, they don’t need talent or brains to learn how to act, just get a bunch of pretty faces on the project, STAT. The first ones that walk in to audition, provided they have little to no credibility as actors. Chop chop! These movies will be GREAT!”

Lainey hates Ashley Greene & if she dicusses this magazine article she’ll do a number on her. For someone with even less talent than Kristen Stewart, she seems very full of herself. Is this 1950′s thing the newest “thing” among the starlet set? Like it’s the new way to rebel? Oh look @ me , I’m sexy , gorgeous & talented. Oh did I tell you I bake the best cupcakee??!! Ugh!

Yeah, she really does. I don’t know why. She’s a bit shallow, but her interviews seem okay and I’d prefer her a thousand times over Blake Lively or Kristen Stewart.

I love KStew, but Ashley is 100 times better than Lively: at least her face looks natural (compared to her yearbook photos), and she really is beautiful.And I haven’t read anything exceptionally crazy/obnoxious in this interview. I even liked the reference of “what after?” and the money-spending-stars-of-the-moment.

Lol sounds like Summit won’t be handing out any bonuses if any of the cast talks about Robsten or Min-cooper gate. Not to worry, a couple of years down the line when she needs money there will be a book selling Kstew and Sparkles out to the highest bidder.

On a positive note, at least I didn’t feel like smacking her at the end of the interview, in contrast to any random KLewd interview.
She seems like a gal who might snag an unattractive but powerful movie exec & retire to the pie baking & nursery.

She didn’t do anything. Which is the problem.
The fact is she’s inoffensive to the point that she becomes offensive.
She’s a mall girl with some hustle. Very much like Blake Lively, except less discreet. Therefore she always looks like a try hard.
Ashley as a brand is mediocre on every level. Mediocre talent, mediocre styling, mediocre personality, mediocre image, mediocre love life.
She reminds me of Nina D. ,from TVD,except without the fans.

I think this photo shoot of her – compared to the god-awful shoots of late (Cameron Diaz for one) – is really, really beautiful…there’s no doubt she photographs well. But then again…looking good on camera might be all she is capable of doing. At least Kristen can act. That’s my choice. Y’all can have your Lea and Blake.

This is delicious. She is a legend in her own mind.
Anyone that has sat through any of the Twilight movies would be able to tell you that Ashley and Taylor are pretty much tied for their horrendous acting.
Also, she should put on a few pounds. Her weight loss has really thinned out her face, making it look skeletal and long. A little bit of roundness in her cheeks would go a long way.

Something must be wrong with me because I don’t see anything wrong with her quotes. But then again I never understood the hate, she comes off pretty harmless to me. She could be doing so much more to get attention than appearing on a cover after cover, which is apparently what annoys people, but she’s keeping it classy. I can respect that. I also think she’s pretty gorgeous and makes a better model than an actress.

I liked some of her quotes, especially her quotes about work and so on. It reminded me about the day-to-day life of actors. It’s a job with pros and cons and even though we might imagine that it translate to automatic money, it really doesn’t.

Boy, Marie Claire got that all wrong!
Anything to get Twihards to buy their mag. I’ll pick Anne Rice vampires any day(or night)!
Report this comment as spam or abuse
Me too!
Twilight, Vampire Diaries, etc. all rip off Anne Rice’s novels. Vampires who are beautiful and conflicted about killing, who aren’t evil, who are telepathic, who can look in mirrors and aren’t repelled by crucifixes, who have their own culture and society, sire and fledgling, their flashback memories of lives lived hundreds of years ago – Anne Rice came up with that stuff first. Her writing is a thousand times superior to the fanfic of Stephenie Meyers. Anne even has S&M books that make 50 Shades so laughable.
The copycats dumb it down to sell to teens. I mean, centuries-old vampires falling in love with high school girls? Really? That is the ultimate generation gap. Talk about suspension of disbelief!

Mmmm hmmm! You said it sister! Anne Rice is #1 anyday and every day when it comes to vampires. I agree that everything after her has seen like a cheap knock off. And you are sooo right about her s&m books being better than 50 Shades of Crap. I have been saying that all along – if anyone wants some REAL spanking, read Rice’s Beauty Trilogy!

Please don’t ever compare today’s posers with the supermodels of the 80s/90s Not even close Segments and clips of that era are all over Youtube and the internet – As someone remarked each was like a statement – this girl isn’t even close to the likes of Niki Taylor, Yasmeen Ghauri, Claudia Mason, Susan Holmes,Meghan DOuglas, Beverly Peele, etc. when they where in their prime. Some of the photos and ad campaigns from that era (remember Revlon’s unforgettable faces campaign) will still hold up 40 yrs from now long after this girl’s forgotten.
And the photoshop is bad. BTW.
Linda E. was one of the best models all time – if you want to see how it’s done check out her Versace ads from the early 90s with Naomi and Christy Turlington. ANd this girl thinks she’s the “it” girl Dream On.

I remember years ago reading a section in a magazine (Style Watch, probably?) where they were talking about what kind of shoes to wear for your body type. There was a picture of Ashley wearing very delicate, strappy silver heels and the writer had commented about how her legs were too “thick” or “athletic” or something for the heels, and she should go with heavier ones to match her legs. At the time I thought “Uh oh; if this girl reads that sort of thing she’ll probably wind up starving herself.” I’m not surprised she’s looking so gaunt now… sad

Ditto. Lainey has a field day with this girl, which I do understand. I mean, she compared herself, Joe Jonas, and Demi Lovato to Brangelina and Jen. Plus, she engineered her own nude photo scandal when Twilight first began, is incredibly obvious about orchestrating pap photos, and tries to get clubs to pay enormous fees for her to show up. The difference between her and Blake Lively is that the latter had a modicum of talent and is much savvier…her hustle plays off, while Ashley’s just crashes and burns. She’s just not going to make it. Her last non Twilight films were mainstream, and bombed spectacularly.
She’s pretty harmless though, so I don’t get the hate. I just find her weaksauce attempt at hustling amusing. In terms of bland, 20 something white girl starlet hustling, Blake Lively is Jay Z and Ashley Green is Lil Bow Wow.
