Matthew Morrison’s Six-Pack Revealed!

Courtesy Vogue

While much has been made of Matthew Morrison’s luscious curls, we had no idea that the 31-year-old Glee star was also hiding sculpted pecs and a rippling six-pack beneath those tweed vests he wears as Mr. Schuester on the hit show. In a sultry swimsuit story in the June issue of Vogue, the actor poses aboard a yacht with (the very lucky) model Raquel Zimmerman, with his shirt casually unbuttoned to reveal a smokin’ hot chest and abs. Looks like Gleeks won’t be the only ones with a teacher’s crush on Mr. Schue for long. For the full story, pick up the June issue of Vogue, or visit vogue.com.

Jennifer Lopez came out with a roar last night at the World Music Awards in Monte Carlo, where she picked up the Legend for Outstanding Contribution to the Arts award, performed a handful of her hit songs, and donned three different Roberto Cavalli dresses that literally made jaws drop. Outrageous jungle prints and plunging necklines were the order of the evening as the sexy diva took to the red carpet in a stamped gray and black leopard dress. When it came time to take to the stage, Lopez seduced the crowd in a custom-beaded mini dress from the designer and sparkling thigh-high boots. But the night’s fashion finale came when the singer accepted her award in a backless, one-shoulder tiger-striped Cavalli gown– complete with a feathered hem!–before heading out to celebrate with her husband, Marc Anthony. With so many fierce looks to choose from last night, we’re not quite sure which dress we like best! Tell us: Which one was your favorite look from last night? Vote in our poll below! David Yi

Kate Beckinsale’s Red Carpet-Ready Routine

KCSPresse/Splash News Online

Kate Beckinsale might be wowing French fans every night on the red carpet at Cannes, but the leggy actress has come a long way since her first appearance on the steps of the famous Palais. “Last time I was here I was 18-years-old and it was for Much Ado About Nothing, and I was so unprepared,” she told PEOPLE during a brief hiatus from her duties as a juror at the Film Festival. “I bought a body stocking at the airport that was too small so I popped out of it on the red carpet. I had Doc Martens boots on, and I think I put the flower from the breakfast tray in my hair,” she said laughing. “No one told me that you could have a hair and make up stylist! It’s a different climate now of course.” Indeed it is. The 36-year-old British actress now has a dedicated team of stylists making sure she is polished and red carpet-ready every evening, often with several outfit changes planned each night. Her favorite so far? The Il Gattopardo premiere, hosted by Gucci and Martin Scorsese Friday night. For the world restoration premiere of the 1963 film, Beckinsale wore an antique white gown detailed with silver beading from Gucci Première, the new couture line from the design house. “I loved that dress, it was just so pretty,” she said. But even with a team of stylists, it did take some multi-tasking to achieve. “I actually went to the jury meeting that afternoon with my hair in curlers which got a few laughs from the rest of them!” –Monique Jessen

Lady Gaga To Intern for Hat Designer Philip Treacy?

Lucy Nicholson/Landov

No look for Lady Gaga is ever quite complete without a headpiece. So it comes as no surprise that the singer would be interested in millinery. And who better to learn from than legendary Irish hat maker Philip Treacy–the couture hat designer behind her unforgettable Grammys lightning bolt headpiece, Sarah Jessica Parker‘s famous green topper for the London Sex and the City premiere and a favorite of the late fashion icon Isabella Blow. But whether or not Gaga follows in the path of stars like Ashley Olsen in becoming a design intern remains to be seen. “While nothing is set in stone, it is true that she has requested an internship with Philip,” confirms a rep for the label. Having collaborated with Philip Treacy on a number of her most-famous headpieces, we think this would be a match made in fashion heaven! Stay tuned for more details.

Kim Kardashian On Her Body: ‘It’s A Work In Progress’

There’s a reason Kim Kardashian has the confidence to be photographed in bikinis–and even mom jeans. Her secret? She actually likes to sweat. “It probably sounds weird, but for me, there’s nothing better than getting up and going right to the gym,” reveals Shape‘s cover girl in this month’s issue. The 29-year-old gets candid about her own body issues, including being the first girl in her peer group to develop curves.“All my friends were super skinny, and that just wasn’t my body type.” Luckily, Kim was able to draw inspiration from her mother, Kris Jenner. “I watched my mom, who was always comfortable with herself, and she helped me with my outlook: I have curves and that’s never going to change, so I’d better start embracing them or I’m going to have a miserable life,” says Kim, who admits, “It took me a while, but I finally caught on.” But just like the rest of us, Kim does have a few nagging issues. “I have cellulite, just like almost every other woman on the planet,” says the reality star, who recently designed a line of swimwear with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney. “And just because I feel secure with my body doesn’t mean I think cellulite is cute! It will always be an issue for me. So let’s just say it’s a work in progress!” For more from Kim, pick up the latest issue of Shape or visit shape.com. –Marissa Patlingrao Cooley

Blake Lively’s Fitness Secret: “The Best Workout You Can Ever Do”

Mario Testino/Vogue

It doesn’t get more New York City than Blake Lively‘s posh Upper East Side princess Serena van der Woodsen, but in real-life Blake is actually a California girl at heart. “I haven’t lived in California for so long,” the actress and California native tells Vogue in the June issue. “But my New York guise is gone. Ostrich flats don’t really work on the beach!” And to prove just how West Coast she really is, the blonde bombshell headed to La Jolla, Calif. to catch some waves with legendary surfer Rob Machado for her cover shoot with photographer Mario Testino. Though it was only Lively’s second time surfing, the 22-year-old–who was joined on location by boyfriend Penn Badgley–wasn’t the least bit nervous. Of course, after having just come from the New Orleans set of the Green Lantern , where she spent hours training with gymnastic acrobats from Cirque du Soleil, surfing seemed like a breeze. “I’m 40 feet in the air, spiraling around. That’s the best workout you can ever do because it’s all core,” she says of her stunt training for the upcoming action flick. “You do that for ten minutes and you should see your body the next day! It’s so exhilarating, so thrilling—also nauseating.” To read more of Blake Lively’s interview and to see more photos, pick up the June issue Vogue on stands this week or check out Vogue.com today.–David Yi
