We have the inside scoop on GLAMOUR’S June 2011 cover story…Girl Gone Wilde! If you know her only as the sexy-brilliant doctor from House, get ready for the summer of Olivia. With two new movies about to drop—and a royal divorce behind her—Olivia Wilde is hitting it big. TV’s hot doc appears on Glamour’s June cover wearing an Enza Costa navy-and-white-striped T-shirt over an Eres Paris red bikini, a gold link Cartier bracelet and Barbara D’Oro bangle. Photographed by Ben Watts in Los Angeles with her furry white dog Paco by her side, Olivia danced on set and munched on vegan treats between takes. Inside the issue, Olivia is shown in a Michael Kors red gown and a Charlotte Bjorlin Delia gold and silver cuff. She also wears a Marc by Marc Jacobs red-and-white-striped bikini under a white Dior peacoat and a nautical-themed dress by Junya Watanabe Comme des Garçons. The issue will be available on newsstands nationwide on May 10 and digitally (iPad and Barnes & Noble Nook Color) on May 16.
Here’s what Olivia shared with Glamour:Olivia Wilde on what she learned from her mother…“She’s gorgeous, and she taught me that a real feminist doesn’t apologize for her beauty. You can be a sexy, beautiful woman and be the smartest person in the room.”
Olivia Wilde on growing up around movie stars…“I remember Mick Jagger [talking] politics with my parents…. At 13 I came to L.A. for a press junket, and it was this magical land of palm trees and George Clooney. But [then] I saw George talking to my dad about politics, and I thought what makes these people special is that they’re not just actors…. I saw people being valued for their intelligence and their interests as opposed to their stardom. It was instilled in us that stardom is meaningless.”
Olivia Wilde on her relationship with ex-husband Tao Ruspoli…“The mark of a good marriage is partnership and continuing to feel inspired by your spouse. I had that with Tao. But the end is not necessarily the tragedy. Staying in a relationship that is no longer working is the tragedy. Living unhappily—that’s the tragedy.” “We got engaged at Burning Man and married on a school bus. We were not conventional.” Olivia Wilde on dating again…“I’m opening up my heart to the idea of dating. It’s funny—my friends would always come to me for romantic advice, [but] I know nothing, and things have changed since I was dating in high school! I’m really trying hard to spend this time working on myself.”“I wish I could play the field. But it’s so not me. I go 100 percent into everything. And I’m a really good girlfriend.”
