Good, lord. Pick a side!

After all that complaining about her nipple-baring W magazine spread and accusing the glossy of taking advantage of her, Kim Kardashian now says she absolutely loves those nude photos.

The flip-flopper told Us Magazine Thursday night:

"Looking back, I love the photos, W magazine is iconic so I'm really happy that I did it and that those are the photos. It's just that that's not what I thought they were going to be. Obviously I'm comfortable posing nude — I've done that before, and I did that then for the magazine. But that's probably not the direction I would've wanted to go if I thought that was going to be the case."

Umm, what did you think they were going to do when they covered your body in silver body paint???

Kim goes on to say:

"When you shoot something, you hope that it turns out the way that you expected it to be. But looking back, that was my initial reaction when I saw the pictures and I was just really upset. I do think the pictures are beautiful."

So how long until she poses nude again? Any guesses???

That didn't take long.

W magazine is already firing back at Kim Kardashian's claims that they took advantage of her by showing her nipples in the November issue.

In an email, the mag said:

"In keeping in line with the theme of W Magazine’s November Art Issue, Kim Kardashian’s cover was conceived as an artistic collaboration with well-known artist Barbara Kruger, and was a meditation on the influence that reality TV has on contemporary culture.

The inside portfolio documented the career and power of Kim Kardashian as a work of art, using the language of artists like Jeff Koons (see Rabbit) and Gilbert & George (see The Singing Sculpture)."

For the record, Kim said back in October that she was "honored" to be chosen for the art issue and "it turned out beautifully".

Here we go again!

On Sunday night's episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Kim Kardashian finally saw her W magazine spread and was shocked.

Says Kim:

"Oh my God, I'm more naked that I was in Playboy. I'm so mad right now. [The magazine] promised I would be covered with artwork — you can see the nipples! The whole concept was sold to me that nothing would be seen. I feel so taken advantage of … I've definitely learned my lesson. I'm never taking my clothes off again, even if it's for Vogue."

Model slash singer Vanessa Paradis has a photo spread in the November issue of Interview and it can only be described as one word: stunning.

Naturally, Johnny Depp's love is wearing all Chanel for the shoot and dished about her long history with the French fashion house and Karl Lagerfeld.

Vanessa tells Patti Smith:

We met a long time ago, but I've only really known him for a few years. Working with him on the things we do for Chanel is a collaboration, of course, but it's also just wonderful to be directed by him. Because the man is just a genius-a genius with a big sense of humor-which is so much fun to be around.

He comes prepared to photo shoots, but he also has a big kid's spirit as well-because his spontaneity is incredible. He'll come up with ideas on the spot, and they are even better than the ones he came with before. His imagination is constantly going and moving. I never thought I could speak like this about photo sessions, but when you're working with him, there is something deeper than just the image. It doesn't stop at the surface of, "Okay, we'll put makeup on, we'll put clothes on, and then take a pretty picture." It's deeper than that.

The more you get to know Karl Lagerfeld, the more you love him. There's something about his eyes. He always has those really dark glasses on, but then sometimes he'll take them off and you'll see the eyes. They are so pure and beautiful. It's really amazing, because he's got quite an impressive look, with the suits and the ties and the jewelry and everything, but underneath there's really a little boy.

How insightful!

We'd love to see the softer side of Unkle Karl.

We spoke too soon!

Following her faboosh November Vogue cover, Anne Hathaway is on the front of Elle UK's December issue in that gold Balmain dress everyone loves.

She looks great on the newsstand cover and we'd probably say the same about the subscriber version if she wasn't missing a leg.

Taylor Swift is on the cover of November's Glamour Italia looking as cute as ever.

The Speak Now songstress also gave the mag a few tidbits on her style and fashion choices.

On being charming and confident:

"Being charming means not feeling inadequate if you enter a room and you realize that everybody's wearing low heels shoes while you're the only one wearing high heels…you have to be confident"

On being herself:

"I never changed to be liked by a man. If I feel like changing I'm doing it for myself. The trick is simple: to be liked by others you have to feel comfortable with who you are and what you're wearing"

On her photoshoot:

"Glamour photoshoot made me find out a different part of myself, one more rock and futuristic. I think fashion is really fun because it allows you to play with different styles. I really like Italian designers like Roberto Cavalli, his dresses seem made for me, like the ones I wore during his fashion show in Milan and his party for his career in Paris"

On her favorite looks from the spread:

"In these pages, I wore dresses that I'd like to have in my closet. The short black dress, I would wear it with a night out with friends"

On advice she received from her mom:

"My mom taught me that it's better to be noticed because you're overdressed rather than because you're shabby"

Love it!

What do U think of Taylor's Italian photo shoot???
