Penelope Cruz November Vanity Fair
Penelope Cruz covers November’s Vanity Fair, and boy did the magazine churn out a titillating cover!
The red background, coupled with the dark-eyed Cruz unzipping a flesh-colored sheath dress sets the bar pretty high for the interview inside.
Is she pregnant? Are the rumors true? Is that why they chose to distract the reader with her back?
As Vanity Fair writer Ingrid Sischy writes:
“My most nosy Parker question–one that I felt it was my duty as a reporter to ask–was whether the widespread rumors that there was a wee Bardem-Cruz on the way were true,” writes Sischy. “Here, unlike before, there was no telling silence from Cruz. Instead she answered no but in a rather baroque, roundabout way, detailing how [director Pedro] Almodóvar had tried, to no avail, to put that rumor to rest when a journalist asked him about it on a red carpet.”
And just in case you’re curious — Penelope doesn’t pick favorites when it comes to her favorite onscreen smoocher — Scarlett Johansson (in Vicky Cristina Barcelona) or Charlize Theron (in Head In The Clouds).
“No matter how I answer that I will be in trouble,” she says. “Both were pretty beautiful partners.”
No fun, Penelope. No fun.
