Megan Fox Marie Claire UK March 2013

Megan Fox

Megan Fox showed off her post-baby figure on the March 2013 cover of Marie Claire UK. Fox, 26, talked about being a new mom to her son Noah, as well as her “soul mate“ and husband Brian Austin Green.

On having more kids:

“I’ve never been validated by work or fame or Hollywood or any of that. I recognize the blessings when they come — like, I recognize I’m so lucky to work with Judd [Apatow] — but the ultimate satisfaction for me is being with my son. All I wanted to do my whole, whole life was have a baby and, now, I’ve finally done it. I just want to give Noah as much of myself as I can. And I want to have more kids. That is where my heart is.”

On the pitfalls of cooking:

“I can cook, but I also want everything to look beautiful on the plate — then I get upset when people eat it. Everyone just tears through it and that makes me sad. It’s not a rewarding experience for me to cook.”

On her husband Brian Austin Green:

“I just think we got lucky. I believe he’s my soul mate. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t take work, because we are very, very different. But we are tolerant of each other and we try to be patient with each other, and I don’t try to turn him into me and he knows not to try to turn me into him. He really is amazing. I should never, ever even think about complaining.”

Drew Barrymore March 2013 Harper's Bazaar

Drew Barrymore

Drew Barrymore looked gorgeous on the March 2013 cover of Harper’s Bazaar, where she opened up about her daughter Olive and her new makeup line.

On shielding Olive from the public eye:

“I definitely needed some time. For a solid six weeks, I was hiding like the Unabomber. Because I live my life in the public eye, I didn’t want that for her… unless I move into a bunker underground, I don’t have a choice in this matter. It was something that took me weeks to cope with. I appreciate my journey, but I don’t want that for my kid. Not any of it. It has nothing to do with whether I liked my childhood. I really did. But as a parent, that isn’t the childhood that I’d provide.”

On her maternity style:

“I didn’t feel I could do a lot with fashion because I wear sweatpants that I find on the floor. I live for makeup and I like wine. These are my truths!”

On her new makeup line, Flower:

“Nobody’s in gold rain or running through a jungle with their lipstick on. It was just me and some great music on a white background. That’s every girl, in her closet getting ready.”

InStyle March 2013 magazine cover

Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz

Celebrity moms Michelle Williams and Rachel Weisz join Mila Kunis on the March 2013 cover of InStyle magazine. The three lovely ladies star in the new movie, Oz The Great and Powerful together.

Williams, who has a daughter named Matilda with the late Heath Ledger, opened up about dating actor Jason Segel.

“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 [6’4”]. 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.“

On creating a home for her daughter:

“I cook and clean a lot these days. I’m in a very domestic cycle, and I happen to love it. I feel like this is a real expression of my love for my daughter. Not the only one, but an important one. As a parent, you want the kid to come back to a place where it seems like the walls are made of feather down.“

Rachel Weisz is married to James Bond star Daniel Craig and has a 4-year-old son Henry, with her ex-husband. She told InStyle that the best part of filming Oz was the play dates!

“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 play dates in our business.“

Weisz also opened up about her changing style, saying:

“As a teenager I used to dress in big, baggy men’s suits, with lots of red lipstick. Then in my 20s I used to wear very tight thermal tops: Underwear as outerwear. I was much curvier then too — I’d throw on a cardigan and big jeans. I didn’t start really growing up until my 30s. But I hope I don’t ever get too grown-up. I always try to hold on to something butch.“

The March issue of InStyle hits newsstands this Friday, February 8.

Marie Claire Heidi Klum Feb 2013

Heidi Klum

Project Runway host and mom of four Heidi Klum looked amazing on the February 2013 cover of Marie Claire magazine. The 39-year-old model opened up about being newly single and her thoughts on being a cougar.

On marrying again:

“I don’t think so. No. No. I wanted to keep the memory of our wedding alive every year, that’s why I thought it would be fun to get married over and over. But now I don’t think it’s that important. I’m not angry about anything, but I don’t think I will. Maybe if I’m with someone for 15 or 20 years, and we do it in our old age as a fun thing to do… But I don’t have the urgency anymore.”

On dating a younger man:

“I can understand why a woman finds a young man attractive, because the truth is that when men get older, their shape changes. Younger men train more, and when the clothes come off, it is nice to look at a sexy, ripped body. But I am realistic. I’m turning 40 next year; I don’t think I could deal with waking up next to a 25-year-old.”

Drew Barrymore on Good Housekeeping February 2013

Drew Barrymore

Busy mom Drew Barrymore also graced the cover of the February 2013 issue of Good Housekeeping.

On not having a beach body:

“I’m still working on it, but I’m not worrying about it. We live in a society where everyone’s like, ‘Look at how amazing she looks two weeks out [from giving birth].’ I don’t want to be on that hamster wheel; that’s hell. I’m never going to have the kind of body that makes me excited about bikini season. I’ve never had a ‘beach body.’ But I want to feel like I’m showing up and doing my best. My goal is to be nice to myself, gentle toward myself, during this process. It’s such a sacred time.”

On her favorite part of being a mom:

“My favorite thing about being a mom is just what a better person it makes you on a daily basis. Every morning when I wake her up, the end game is, ’Can I get her to smile?’ And that puts me in a good mood. It’s definitely a different way to live — and a much better one.“
