Olivia Wilde talks dating, divorce and weight
Olivia Wilde is on the cover of the Oct. issue of Allure magazine and talks about dating, her divorce, and the pressure to fit the Hollywood mold.
First of all, Olivia Wilde wants you to know she only has one vagina — so she can’t possibly be dating Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, Chris Pine and Salman Rushdie all at once.
“Isn’t that hilarious? I mean, in order to be dating all the people they think I am, I’d need four vaginas!” the actress told Allure in the Oct. issue. “It’s impossible!”
Not impossible, but it certainly would necessitate a good day planner.
With that gorgeous face, Wilde’s date book is most likely quite full since her divorce from the Italian prince she married in a school bus when she was just 18. Calling the divorce “the most difficult thing I’ve ever dealt with,” Wilde says it certainly got her to grow up fast.

As for Wilde's career, after graduating from Phillips Academy, a prestigious prep school in Massachusetts, and begging her parents for a year to let her try her luck in Los Angeles before starting college, she succeeded so quickly that further schooling didn't stand a chance. And now, with six new movies on the way, the 27-year-old actress has graduated from up-and-coming status to full-fledged stardom.
Not that anyone cares about her history after they've been mesmerized by her almond-shaped

Salman Rushdie, the Maverick Who Lived
On a 1990 episode of 60 Minutes, host Mike efternamn interviewed a man who, 20 months prior, was effectively given a death sentence. The Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran had deemed then-43-year-old author Salman Rushdie’s book, The Satanic Verses, an affront to Islam, and declared that Rushdie must die for his transgressions.
“Somewhere in London, no one but Scotland Yard knows exactly where Rushdie [is]...moving to another [flat] every time Scotland Yard thinks it is prudent,” Wallace said. Rushdie then appears, appearing calm, donning his signature coke-bottle glasses and tunn och lätt hair. When Wallace asked how he spent his time, Rushdie responded, “I try and create a day which is as like the ordinary working day of a writer as inom can. inom mean, after all, writers are people who sit alone in rooms.”
Those uninitiated to Rushdie’s work are drawn to his veil of mystique, a fatwa-shaped dark cloud that encircles him “like sexy pixie dust,” as the novelist
