I think it's a very shallow thought to think creative people can't do business. I am as proud of the fact that our magazine has a commercial success as I am that we're a critical success. I want people to realize that I'm very strategic in how I run Bazaar.

I'm all about talent. I love talent and I want to work with as much great talent as possible. My job as editor in chief is making the most of everybody's talent and pulling that together into a format that's even better than an individual.

Life's too short not to enjoy what you're working on.

Here's the thing: celebrities understand the power of original ideas because often that's why they act. They want to be in movies that tell a story. They know the power of iconic imagery. Often, you find that people really want to participate.

Nobody wants to be the same as anybody else.

I was always a great believer in starting at the top. I really think that focusing on a career and working your way up is way way way overestimated.

I want technology to work for me, and my readers. People get confused that technology comes first. The ideas come first. You need to use the medium.
