Ok – does anyone else think this cover is a bit on the creepy side? That doesn’t look a thing like Emma Stone! I mean I can kinda see it, but let’s be honest, that doesn’t look like the Emma we know and love!

Here are some highlights from the interview:

On having braces and wearing glasses while growing up:

“And I sucked my thumb until I was 11, so I had this expander in. I was a good-looking kid. I never felt, like, dorky. I was just like, ‘Yup, these are my braces. I’ve had them forever.’”

On not being recognized as easily in public with her new look:

“I mean, I haven’t been around very long. I can’t expect everyone to have seen The House Bunny. Oh God. I am having such waves of internal embarrassment, which now I’m admitting on a tape recorder. This is so one of the things I should keep in my head.”

On her obsession with Farmville:

“I got to level 42, and I wasn’t doing anything else anymore, so I had to stop.”

On taking up baking in part to control her nervous energy:

“It’s very controlled. You know, if you put in the same amount of whatever is in the recipe, it will come out all right.”

On her career:

“It’s so funny how different life could have been. I went to so many auditions. I remember my audition for Heroes. I went in right after Hayden Panettiere. Now here we are in this rented house. It feels like it just happened.”

On wanting to be believable in her roles:

“I like to look like a person. It drives me crazy when you see women in movies playing teachers, and they have biceps. It totally takes me out of the movie. I start thinking, Wow, that actress playing this part really looks great!”

On declining to talk about her relationship with her former boyfriend, Kieran Culkin:

“You have to keep some things sacred…”

On whether celebrity relationships have a shorter shelf life:

“I don’t think that’s true. Maybe. But there’s a fair amount that do work….I’m optimistic.”
