Today looks to be a day of revelations. First up we had our first look at Gisele's Vogue Paris spread in full, and now it's the Wall Street Journal Magazine's in depth profile on Anna Wintour that has our attention.

Baz Luhrmann on Anna: "Those people helped me see Moulin Rouge! through its birth pangs...I always talk to Anna about what I'm up to...and I always listen to what she has to say."
