’s last 2008 issue is remarkable, interesting, and unforgettable.

Lets start!

US Elle magazine December 2008

Beautiful is one of the most talented women in the music sphere today.

American Idol winner , 25, graces the cover of the December 2008 issue of US .

Country music singer talks among others issues on fame, her love life, and that ‘other blond’.

Here are some of the highlights:

On the rumor she was dating Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps:

I swear on everything, on my job, on my house, my dog…That’s how serious I am. It’s all just a lie. Anytime any [media source] ever says ‘a friend said,’ or ‘a close’ whatever – no, they didn’t! It’s just made up. None of my friends would say anything. Ever. About anything!”

Elle Carrie Underwood December 2008

On her comment that a taken Tony Romo still calls her:

It was just something that was said in passing, and I would never mean to say anything to hurt anybody or to stir up anything, because I’m just not about drama. At all. I might be mad too if somebody said my boyfriend was calling some other girl. So I can definitely see where she [Jessica Simpson] would be coming from. But I haven’t talked to him since, like, May.”

On whether or not she’s dating someone:

If I say I am or I’m not, as soon as this magazine comes out, it might be the opposite of what I tell you now. In three months, it’ll be ‘Carrie said she’s not dating anybody,’ yet last night, I was out on the town with some guy. He’s going to get mad at me. Everybody’s going to think I’m a liar. It’s just best not to go there.”

On life on the road:

I don’t know how people do it. It’s tiring. It’s hard. Right now I do a lot because I have no reason not to. I don’t have a husband or kids. If I go home, I’m home by myself. I have no reason not to be on the road, no reason not to just get out there and do everything right now, while I’m young enough to, while I can enjoy it. But I think when I get a little older, I definitely want to slow down, just because it’s very stressful. It’s hard on your body, hard on your mind, hard on your emotions.”

On dealing with celebrity:

I knew what I was signing up for, and I’m not complaining at all. I’ve learned how to deal with it, and my life is great, I’m a happy person. What are you going to do? Give it all up? No!”

British magazine December 2008 issue

Clad in nothing but a belted MaxMara jacket, towering Louis Vuitton heels, and De Beers’ The Secrets of the Rose ring, made up of 196 white diamonds and one huge pink diamond that’s over 9 carats.

Elle UK cover december 2008 Kate Beckinsale by Matthias Vriens

, 35, is showing off her splendid figure in a beautiful shoot for UK magazine December 2008.

The unique cover, photographed by Matthias Vriens, features the woman nine times in smaller pictures for the subscriber’s issue.

I’m amazed that people obsess over my body image so much. Why do we encourage this war on women’s bodies? It’s a horrendous way to live, and I refuse to,” said the actress, who suffered from anorexia in her teens and weighed just five stone, but has since made a full recovery.

I’m entirely normal. I have my good days and my bad days. I am a lot more body confident now I’m in my thirties, and in better shape too. If someone turns up with cupcakes mid-afternoon, I’ll have one. And I’d hate to be one of those people who won’t allow themselves a slice of birthday cake.”

She upholds her figure with a judicious eating regime and four exercise sessions per week with a personal trainer.

About her view:

I don’t like to walk around wearing no make-up, with my hair rolled on top of my head on my days off. I think my husband would be a bit bummed out if I did. It’s nice to feel like you’re wooing the other person a bit. You’ve got to keep up the seduction phase – it’s fun.”
