Vogue Paris Translation: Editorial, May 2010

Carine Roitfeld sets the stage for each issue of Vogue Paris in the editorial that she pens, highlighting those featured in its pages in her charming manner. Here I have translated from French to English Carine's editorial for Vogue Paris May 2010 with Penélope Cruz serving as guest editor:

Une rédactrice en chef invitée, ce n'est pas vraiment une première dans Vogue, puisque chaque numéro de Noël est piloté par une célébrité. Au passage, ces numéros exceptionnels sont parmi les plus plébiscités par nos lecteurs. Il y a très longtemps que nous souhaitions travailler avec Penélope Cruz. Est-il besoin d'expliquer pourquoi ? Actrice espagnole Oscarisee, un pedigree ébouriffant — Pedro Almodovar, Woody Allen, Stephen Frears et bientôt un "Pirate des Caraïbes", un tempérament inflammable, un vie privée au coffre-fort... Son pouvoir d'attraction est colossal. Son investissement tout autant. En couverture, Penélope Cruz a tenu à poser avec quelques-unes de ses consœurs de Hollywood ainsi que Bono et à mettre en lumière l'action de (RED) qui œuvre pour financer la lutte contre le sida en Afrique. Au sommaire également : une rencontre avec deux étoiles du Royal Ballet, Vanessa Paradis en Chine, un entretien entre deux compatriotes, Ferran Adrià, génie gastronomique à la tête d'E Bulli, et Valentin Fuster, star des cardiologues, un portrait de Crystal Renn, top model aux proportions inédites, sans oublier une conversation entre Pedro Almodóvar et Jeanne Moreau. ‹‹Parler de moi, dit Penélope Cruz, c'est mettre en avant les gens que j'admire.›› Une politesse de grande, une élégante manière de préserver tout son mystère.

A guest editor, this is not really a first for Vogue, since each Christmas issue is driven by a celebrity. Incidentally, these special issues are among the most popular with our readers. For a long time we have wanted to work with Pénelope Cruz. Is it necessary to explain why? An Oscar-winning Spanish actress with a breathtaking pedigree — Pedro Almodovar, Woody Allen, Stephen Frears and soon a "Pirate of the Caribbean," an inflammable temperament, a private life like a safe... her capacity for attraction is colossal. Her investment as well. For the cover, Penélope Cruz wished to ask some of her Hollywood colleagues together with Bono to spotlight the work of (RED) which works to finance the fight against AIDS in Africa. Contains also: a meeting with two stars of the Royal Ballet, Vanessa Paradis in China, a conversation between two compatriots, Ferran Adrià, culinary genius at the head of E. Bulli, and Valentin Fuster, star among cardiologists, a portrait of Crystal Renn, top model of unpublished proportions, without forgetting a conversation between Pedro Almodóvar and Jeanne Moreau. "To speak about me," said Penélope Cruz, "is to put forward the people that I admire." A great politesse, an elegant way to preserve all of her mystery.
