Michelle attended the 2012 Palm Springs International Film Festival Awards Gala where she received the Desert Palm Achievement Award from Kenneth Branagh and I’ve added pictures to the gallery at Michelle Williams Fan thanks to Luciana. She looked beautiful as always.

She’s a favorite when it comes to front page picks, and Reese Witherspoon was selected to cover the February 2012 issue of ELLE.

The blonde beauty dolled up the Carter Smith shot spread while chatting about loving her womanly figure and not wanting to perpetuate romantic misconceptions.

Highlights from Miss Witherspoon’s interview are as follows.

On why she loves her womanly figure:
“I do have to say, I like my body so much better after I had kids. Is that a crazy thing to say? I’m more womanly. I feel sexier. I’m more comfortable with my sexuality as I get older. When I was younger, I didn’t know why men were starting to look at me. Now I know why men are looking — and I’m cool with it.

On her fondness of artists Julie Blackmon:
“I’m obsessed. She’s doing really interesting meditations on modern parenting. Kind of like the children are into trouble – the kids will be climbing up the window, or the baby will be sitting by the edge of the pool while the parents are reading Vanity Fair. It’s very clever, and her compositions are beautiful.”

On tabloid misconceptions about romance:
“… I’m sick of whatever tabloid stuff or this or that story tries to portray. My life is just as realistic as everybody else’s. Whoever thinks someone has a perfect life, I’m so eager to dispel that. I don’t want to perpetuate any more romantic fantasy. I don’t want it to come across about how effusive or happy or lucky I am, but I want it to be honest with people. I can’t be a liar-pants. I wish I could! But I’m just not a liar, man!”

On how she met her husband, Hollywood agentJim Toth: “It happened out of the blue. This really drunk guy was hitting on me [at a friend's house], making such an idiot of himself, yelling at me. He was like, [slurring, scowling, pointing finger in her face] ‘You don’t know me.’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I know. I don’t know you!’ Jim came over and said, ‘Please excuse my friend. He’s just broken up with someone.’ Jim was a really good friend, pulling him out of that situation. That’s just kind of who he is, a really good person.”

On thinking she wouldn’t marry again: “Jim said, ‘I’m gonna show you every day what a good partner is, what a good person is. I’m going to take care of you. I’m gonna do this so much that you’re gonna get used to it.’ I was like, ‘What are you talking about?’ I’ve never had anybody like that in my life.”

On aging: “Nothin’s going north. It’s all going south, might as well put in on film now. But not without a lot of padding and a push-up bra.”

I have just added 1,137 gorgeous Blu-Ray screen captures of Michelle as Cindy from 2010′s critically acclaimed drama Blue Valentine to Michelle Williams Fan. I absolutely love this film, and think both Ryan and Michelle give heart-wrenching performances which are both highlights of their careers so far. Please note that some of these caps are Not Safe For Work, and contain nudity and scenes of a sexual nature.

Visit Michelle Williams Fan for an ever-growing collection of Blu-Ray & HD screen captures!

Last night, Michelle Williams and co-star Eddie Redmayne attended the first screening of My Week with Marilyn at the New York Film Festival, with Michelle looking absolutely stunning in a pale mint dress by Dior. Reviews for the film are fairly positive already, especially regarding Michelle’s portrayal of Marilyn:

“Michelle Williams gives a layered performance that goes beyond impersonation. Playing both the damaged, insecure woman and the sensual celebrity construct, Williams gets us on intimate terms with one of Hollywood’s most enduring and tragic icons” – THR

Hey everyone! Michelle is on the cover of Interview magazine for May and I’ve been sent the article plus some gorgeous photos of her from the issue to put up on the site at Michelle Williams Fan.

VIDA: And didn’t you go off and live on your own when you were 15, too?

WILLIAMS: I did. It gave me so much comfort. Why did I have that urge? I think it was Inge Jacobin’s bones kicking around in me.

VIDA: When you went to live on your own, did you go to L.A.?

WILLIAMS: Yeah, I went to L.A. At that point my family was living in San Diego, so it wasn’t as big an undertaking as Inge Jacobin’s. I hopped around from crappy apartment complex to crappy apartment complex in the Los Angeles area.

VIDA: Were you still close to your family? Or was it one of those breaks you make when you’re 15 and later patch things up?

WILLIAMS: It was kind of a break. It didn’t last too terribly long, thank goodness, before I got Dawson’s Creek and moved to North Carolina. So I had about a year in Los Angeles solo.

VIDA: At first I couldn’t believe the film was shot in Oregon. It was really interesting to see the high-desert part of the state. As I watched these three families go across the plain, with their guide and the covered wagons, I just felt the heat and the toil and the immense effort of it. And the weight of those dresses!

WILLIAMS: I know! The dresses . . . I miss that. The only part of your body left exposed to the sun were your hands. My hands have aged at a rate disproportionate to the rest of my body because of being out there in the hot sun for two months. You couldn’t keep sunscreen on your hands; you were just sort of filthy all the time. But the dresses, they were inge- nious for so many reasons. They actually do keep you quite cool, because they’re cotton, and they also provide cover. Privacy is important to women, and when you’re on the trail like that, so little is afforded. But with the dress, you can actually go to the bathroom in private. It provides an incredible shield. You could literally be in a conversation with somebody and just sort of drop down . . . I can’t believe I’m talking about this. I read once that when James Dean was feeling inhibited on set, he went off into a corner and urinated. I thought, How interesting! Then having that experience of peeing in private underneath the dress . . . [laughs] At first I was really scared. You’re out there in the desert all day. I mean, what are you going to do when you’re a girl? It’s hard. We were scared about snakes and all these creatures and critters, and it finally just became this weird joy to be out there, just stuck behind the bush . . . I can’t believe I’m still talking about this.

VIDA: What did you and Ryan Gosling do to prepare for the second half of the film? Whatever you did, it was upsetting for the viewer, too.

WILLIAMS: We lived in this house, and what we really had to learn how to do, in the month or so that we had, was how to fight, because we had just come off the heels of making the first part of Blue Valentine, which was as fun and light and happy of an experience as I’ve ever had. I think Ryan felt similarly. So neither of us were quick to destroy that. We spent the first couple of weeks in the house just doing the dishes and making meals, taking out the trash and balancing out the budget and making home movies. But that wasn’t getting us to the place that we needed to go, so Derek had us step it up, and he would ask us to pick fights with each other.

VIDA: How?

WILLIAMS: Well, first he did this ceremony where he had wedding pictures taken of us, and he took a framed wedding picture and put it in a wheelbarrow with fireworks that we bought at the grocery store, and he doused it with kerosene and we lit it on fire and watched it burn. But the crazy thing is, it didn’t burn all the way—it burned into a heart around our faces, around our kiss. He couldn’t destroy it.

VIDA: It wouldn’t burn.

WILLIAMS: It wouldn’t burn. Which I think has something ultimately to do with the ending. It won’t burn. Then one day we were spending time together, and Ryan said something to me. It was a jab, and I took it hard, and then it ricocheted. From that moment the infection or something started, and we never were able to get back to a good place with each other, which is what Derek had been going for anyway.

VIDA: So what do you do or turn to to keep yourself growing and changing and evolving?

WILLIAMS: Stories. Keeping stories in my brain is impor- tant to me. I can get a story at the grocery store. If I’m paying attention, I can get it on the subway. I can get it in a book . . . Just catching a glimpse of how somebody is interacting with their child, or how they shape their nails or bop their head to the beat, and storing these little moments . . . Dreams . . . I’ll take it any way I can get it. But you also have to be paying attention and keep notes.
