You people know that Amanda Seyfried grates on my last nerve. I won’t go into details (but you can read about her in our archives), because most of you are just going to yell at me and tell me that she’s not full of herself, that she’s not a legend in her own mind, that she’s actually a really sweet, nice, lovely girl. The jury’s still out, in my opinion. But you know what? I’m still reading her interviews and I’m still interested in hearing what she has to say, so for that, mission accomplished. Of course, I still read Megan Fox’s interviews too. Just sayin’.

So Amanda is the cover girl for June’s Teen Vogue, all to promote Letters to Juliet. Even though I think the girl’s an a-hole, I do think she’s gorgeous, and the styling this photo shoot is the pits. WTF? You’ve got a little mini-Uma Thurman, and you’re trying to make her look like a Long Island Lolita. Here are some excerpts from the cover story (full piece here):

On the paparazzi following her: “I don’t really care about paparazzi—like, I’m not wearing makeup right now and I should be—but when someone follows me around on a day like that, a really wonderful, beautiful day . . .” she trails off. “Had I known he was there, I would have been really upset.”

On Mean Girls: “People still come up to me and say, ‘You were really funny in that,’ and I’m like, It’s not me. Tina Fey wrote everything I said!” she says, laughing. “I think I impressed a lot of people in Mean Girls. I don’t know how I pulled that off.”

On not being romantic: “It’s fun to play characters who have these ideals that you don’t have. Like, in Dear John, Channing [Tatum] and I had such a good time because we were pretending to be in love,” she says, but even though Letters to Juliet was “very romantically shot in a very romantic place,” it didn’t change her perspective. “A lot of people ask me, ‘Is Dominic the one?’ I don’t know, and I’m fine with that. Too much planning can lead to heartbreak. Love is great and possible, always, but it’s very rare to have the feeling that ‘I want to be with this person forever.'”

Her first boyfriend was Micah Alberti, who is now dating Rumer Willis: “I can’t remember if he said I love you first, or if I did.”

She’s musical too: When she’s not filming, Amanda spends a lot of time at her piano, a gift from Letters to Juliet director Gary Winick, which has inspired the classically trained singer—who has written a song with Damien Rice and contributed songs to the Mamma Mia! and Dear John soundtracks— to return to her musical roots. “I love being the background voice,” she says. “But I’m not interested in being in the spotlight.”

Her style: “Comfortable and simple with a little edge.”

She‘s no-drama, really: “I am successful now, and it’s wonderful. But the reason it is so wonderful is because I didn’t expect it to happen.”

Eh. I like that she gave Tina Fey her props, and I like that she seems to be making an effort to sound low-key and no-drama. Oh, but I would love to know the dirt of Micah Alberti! How does a guy go from Amanda to Rumer Willis? Really, I’d like to know. I also didn’t know that she was so musical, although I’ve never seen Mamma Mia. Does she have a good voice?
