I love being a mom and a wife." 02 of 12 February, Halle Berry A very pregnant, very beautiful Halle Berry, then 41, appeared on our February 2008 issue wearing a Donna Karan dress. The Oscar winning actress had an eviable glow, which she graciously admitted was thanks to Baby Berry: "My skin is aglow from all the hormones. I actually wear less makeup now, which is really good. I want to stay pregnant forever." 03 of 12 March, Eva Longoria Parker Eva Longoria Parker, then 32, revealed her awe-inspiring closet inside our March issue. On the cover, she wore a Dries Van Noten dress and Ippolita earrings and bangles. Then newly wed gushed about her new name, "I love my new name.

But I love it." 04 of 12 April, Renee Zellweger The 39-year-old actress was striking in an emerald Ralph Lauren gown on our 2008 Color Issue. She had just wrapped filming on George Clooney's Leatherheads, a challenge she welcomed. "I like the struggle of my work," Zellweger claimed.

The busy Grammy winner admitted that she sometimes felt like she was leading two lives: "I kind of have two lives. There's 'Carrie Underwood,' the singer who walks the red carpets. Then there's 'Carrie,' the girl in sweats sitting home watching TV with her dog. I'm 'Carrie' 90 percent of the time." 06 of 12 June, Cameron Diaz The always beautiful Cameron Diaz, then 35, wore Marc Jacobs on our June cover and told us her tips for being sexy: "Sexy is being in the moment, whether that means being coy or coming on hard.

The ambitious singer shared her plans for 2018 with us: "In 10 years I want to have already started my family and have some businesses of my own.

She talked with us about how she feels about fame saying, "Being a celebrity is one of the fringe aspects of my job and one I've been tutored in, so to speak. I've learned how to use it in a positive way and benefited from the brush with fame I had in my teens. I got used to it slowly, rather than having a transcendent moment. Either way it's important to be clearheaded and not to let fame become toxic." 10 of 12 October, Meg Ryan The 46-year-old actress was starring in The Women when she appeared on our cover in a Halston dress. In the interview, Ryan told us about her amazing career and where life has taken her lately saying, "I've been famous for a long time, and these last years there's been a great lull. So it has been me throwing a backpack on, traveling a lot - it's been fantastic." 11 of 12 November, Beyonce The busy Grammy winner (wearing Gucci) had an album and two movies (Cadillac Records and Obsessed) to promote in November 2008!
