Conde Nast (the publishers of Vogue, Tatler, Vanity Fair...) are slowly taking over the world with yet another international edition of one of their magazines – Vanity Fair France. The magazine launches across the channel today, to much excitement.
Of the launch Conde Nast have written: It’s not by chance that Vanity Fair chose US star Scarlett Johansson (photographed by Mark Seliger) to cover its first issue. Only she can embody the «glossy on the outside, gritty on the inside» spirit of the magazine. As a sexy Hollywood icon and lover of France, elegant and spiritual, Scarlett is just as convincing in art house films as in blockbusters. She is the ideal transatlantic cover star.
Investigative journalism is in Vanity Fair’s DNA. This month, three famous stories are told exclusively to the magazine by figures who have not - or who have barely - spoken on the matter until now. The former butler to the Bettencourt family tells for the first time how and why he decided to make secret recordings of the conversations of France’s richest woman. King of Steel Lakshmi Mittal reveals a new version of his negotiations with the French administration and uncanny forger Wolfgang Beltracchi, imprisoned in Germany, reveals how he duped leading experts on Georges Braque and Fernand Leger.
