New York Magazine

Anna Wintour isn't the only person who got a new job this week. Wintour has hired New York Magazine deputy editor Jon Gluck to be the new managing editor at Vogue.

Gluck (above at left), who had been at New York for a decade, will replace Vogue's longtime managing editor Laurie Jones starting April 8. Jones left the magazine at the end of February after 20 years there. Coincidentally, Jones also came to Vogue from New York, where she'd spent the previous 20 years of her career. (While at New York, Jones hired Wintour as the magazine's fashion editor in 1981.)

Elsewhere in the magazine industry, Joanna Coles, who'd been hard at work restructuring her staff at Cosmpolitan, has hired Shopbop head stylist Aya Yanai as the magazine's fashion director. Michelle McCool, who had been Cosmo's fashion director for 10 years, left the magazine just last month. Yanai has worked in fashion glossies in the past: before Shopbop, she was the senior fashion editor at Teen Vogue and fashion director at Nylon.

Ryan Gosling gives a serious stare on the cover of New York Magazine this week. He keeps the hotness coming in a spread shot by Art Streiber, in which he plays the ukulele like his romantic character in Blue Valentine. Ryan's been promoting the film, in theaters Dec. 31, with his costar Michelle Williams, though he's currently sharing the screen with Kirsten Dunst in the recently released All Good Things. Both of his leading ladies talked to the magazine about starring with Ryan, and he opened up about his work, Hollywood standards, and more:

• On Blue Valentine: “The film is like that Supremes song ‘Where Did Our Love Go.’ It’s a mystery and you in the audience are the detective because the characters in the movie are too close to it — they’re not able to see what went wrong, what happened. They still love each other, but they’re not in love: Why?”
• On staying in the moment: “I know it sounds dramatic, but every movie I make is the first and last. It’s important for me to think that the things you’ve made, they’re in the past. It’s what you’re making now that matters.”
• On Hollywood standards: “Some of us are tired of all the sissies in this town, the ones who go along, flow with the flow, line up where they’re told to line up at. The studios want you to make the same movie over and over again — if that’s the movie they liked, that’s the movie you should keep making.”
• Michelle Williams on working with Ryan: “You’ve got to fight dirty, you’ve got to bite his ear, because if I tried to match his energy and speed, I would never win. With all that capacity, Ryan could be a steamroller. I know guys like that, and they take up all the air. I thought, I’m timid and I’m not going to be able to breathe. But within minutes I knew how wrong I had been. He’s incredibly sensitive and generous and will do anything to help you.”
• Kirsten Dunst on Ryan: “Ryan is kind and adorable, yet also really dark and weird and manipulative. Everything you’d want in an actor.”

"It’s there, it’s one of those things. My big concern is what does he have going, what do I have going, what are we going to do this weekend. It must seem weird, I guess, having so many people watching. It is weird. I get it. But you just, you know, smile and nod.
