Few can say they’ve hosted the Academy Awards, written a book, and have taught a college course (about themselves) all in one lifetime. Even fewer of those people have done all of this before the age of 35. But we know of one person: James Franco. With news about him playing the lead in Hugh Hefner’s biopic film on top of recently writing his own novel, Actors Anonymous—a supposed fictionialized account of his experiences as an actor—we had to ask ourselves, is there anything James Franco thinks he can’t do? The maverick’s first breakthrough role was on the unfortunately short-lived TV show Freaks and Geeks in ’99 but started gaining recognition for the television movie James Dean, which landed him a Golden Globe award. Since then, he’s starred as Tobey Maguire’s best friend-turned-enemy Harry Osborn in Spider-man and Spider-man 2 and taken on a recurring role on ABC’s soap opera General Hospital. His other films include Tristan and Isolde, Milk, 127 Hours, and most recently Rise of the Planet of the Apes. So, what do we love about the do-it-all dreamboat? better question might be, what’s there not to love? Besides his ability to play both a gay lover in Milk and a hilarious loveable stoner in Pineapple Express, the boy’s got skills aside from the big screen. Franco returned to UCLA where he earned his undergrad degree in 2008. He then moved to NYC for graduate school at Columbia University’s writing program and NYU’s Tisch School of Arts, where he graduated with his MFA in both 2010 and 2011. He is currently a PhD student in English at Yale University and just last fall taught a course about film making at NYU (we don’t know how those students found the concentration). The James-of-all-trades is also in talks to write and direct the Hollywood version of William Faulkner’s iconic novel, As I Lay Dying. We literally don’t know how he does it; we can barely balance school and a social life! Whatever his secret is, we’re honored to add to his accolades by crowning him ELLEgirl’s crush of the week.

Newly resolved to have perfect fingernails? You don’t have to drop major money at a salon to keep your nails glossy and strong all winter. Set aside about an hour, follow our eight easy steps, and you won’t want to cover up with winter gloves or coat sleeves. You’ll need: Base and top coat (see our top pick below) Nail polish remover Cotton pads or Q-tips Nail file Cuticle pusher or clipper.
1. Soak your hands in warm water for at least three minutes. A little bit of lemon juice will help loosen any nail color, meaning less damage done by nail polish remover.
2. Remove any old polish with a cotton ball or Q-tip and apply moisturizer to your cuticles. The alcohol in nail polish remover leeches moisture from your skin, so make sure to apply lotion or hand cream before, and after you take off old polish.
3. Push back cuticles. If you’ve left your nail beds unattended for a while, you can trim your cuticles but be careful, if you cut your cuticles too short they’ll bleed.
4. Shape your nails with a nail file, being careful only to file in one direction. A back and forth motion will weaken your nails. Give yourself square edges, and a round tip, the perfect shape for growing out your nails and keeping them strong.
5. Buff your nails so you have a smooth surface for the polish to stick to.
6. Base Coat. Always use a base coat! It helps your color stick and strengthens your nails. We love Sally Hansen’s Double Duty Polish, which can be used as both a base, and top coat. It’s packed with vitamins to strengthen your nails, and is a hardcore chip resister.

7. Color. Always roll the bottle (never shake!) to mix up the color, and get your perfect shade. 8. Top Coat. Wait at least half an hour before applying a top coat to seal in the color, and keep your nails looking lovely for as long as possible.

Simon Doonan’s spent this week celebrating the release of his fifth book, Gay Men Don’t Get Fat. It’s a riff on the famous self help book, Why French Women Don’t Get Fat, and sets out to prove the superiority of gays over gamines—in a terribly funny, not at all PC way of course. Yesterday, he hosted a breakfast at Barneys to talk about how the book came to fruition—he wrote it in just six months—and what he plans to do next. The best bits below (and you can get the book on Amazon now). On Gay Vs. Straight Food I can’t believe people ever thought there were four food groups when it’s so obvious that there are two! There’s gay food and straight food. The gayest food, I think it’s got to be macarons. Right? A little box of macarons in all pastels. I think if you lived on macarons you would just explode in a sort of nuclear cloud of gayness. On Red Carpet Dressing People always go back to Bjork and the swan dress simply because nobody’s worn anything that interesting in the intervening years—and that was how many years ago? We haven’t had anything fun like that in ages. On Lessons He’d Like to Teach the Fashion Industry I’m always very uncomfortable if I feel people are very self critical. There’s plenty of those people in the fashion industry who are very self critical, very masochistic in the way they approach their style, their bodies and I think, maybe, that will be what they learn, just to be reckless and have fun and not be self conscious. On Stereotypes I hope it’s playing to stereotypes! I love stereotypes and sweeping generalizations and anything that’s un-PC. In a way you sort of diffuse them if you throw them around. On His Favorite Celebs Tilda Swinton, I always looking forward to seeing her. And that chick from the Dragon Tattoo; she’s pretty great. [Though] it would be terrible if she showed up looking groomed and appropriate.

If there were a prize for stuffing the most supermodel star power into one ad, Roberto Cavalli would win for spring. The Italian designer just released his campaign images, shot by Steven Meisel at New York’s Pier 59 Studios. They feature three three supermodels—Karen Elson, Kristen McNemany and Naomi Campbell—and one newbie (in comparison at least), 17-year-old Daphne Groeneveld. The behind-the-scenes video after the jump is full of wind machines, sequins and yes, plenty of animal print.

Models lingering at last night's Stella McCartney presentation. When we turned off 7th Avenue and onto Barrow Street last night, heading to Stella McCartney’s fall presentation, a stream of models was marching toward us—it’s easy to forget how tall and otherworldly they are when they’re with their own kind, on a runway, but set them free in the real world, among mortals, and they sure do stick out like very sore, very tall thumbs. So when we finally walked in to One If By Land, Two If By Sea, a cozy West Village restaurant, it was easy to spot Stella’s clothes, despite a dark wood space packed with fashion folks. The models scattered across the restaurant—in the library nook, by the accessories set against the garden, upstairs at the pool table, or talking to the mechanical fortune teller—to show off their brocade jackets, black jumpsuits and blue and orange paisley pants. There was a very British, almost pajama-like feel to the collection, including a tweed trouser suit and a green and black buffalo plaid dress. We were, as usual, distracted by the models’ impossibly glowing skin. Backstage, makeup artist and skincare guru Sunday Riley filled us in on her tricks, “They wanted a clean, fresh radiance so we cleansed the skin and then patted a cocktail of Good Genes and Stimulant 2 Serums into the skin. Good Genes is rich in pharmaceutical grade lactic acid which resurfaces the skin and helps pull the anti-redness ingredients from Stimulant 2 deeper into the dermis. We finished with five drops of Juno oil and a dab of Skin Adrenaline for a subtle glow.” So there’s something you can do now, since you’ll have to wait another six months to get your hands on these pre-fall goodies.

Though rumors of Drew Barrymore’s engagement to Will Kopelman have been swirling all week, the actress finally confirmed them this morning via the glowing picture above. Kopelman, an art consultant, popped the question in Sun Valley, Idaho over the holidays (where the two were vacationing) with a 4 carat diamond ring from Graff. So now the real question—what will she wear for her third walk down the aisle? If she needs help, Kopelman’s dad was the head of Chanel…
