JOSH McCAHILL FOR ABERCROMBIE

Let me give you Abercrombie & Fitch newest addition, probably found by Bruce Weber somewhere in a corn field! His name is Josh McCahill [Chosen Chicago] Two more photos AFTER THE JUMP.

YOANN GOURCUFF by BRUCE WEBER

Yoann Gourcuff first featured on OhLaLa back in October 2008 [Yoann Gourcuff The French Cristiano Ronaldo Only Hotter] is now on the cover of french sport magazine Sport & Style photographed by Bruce Weber.



The photos are good, mostly because as a photographer I do not believe there is such a thing as a bad photo, there are different tastes and point of views, but I am a tiny little bit disappointed by this series of images. Knowing how hot Yoann Gourcuff is and how talented Bruce Weber can be, I would have expect a better result I guess ... or a butt naked Yoann ... I mean come on this is what Bruce Weber is known for after all!



More photos AFTER THE JUMP.

TAYLOR LAUTNER FOR TEEN VOGUE

Taylor Lautner may (and should) put Robert Pattinson into the darkness, I never got the Pattison buzz and agree that the spotlights should be on team Lautner :-) Taylor is on the cover of the October issue of Teen Vogue in a spread shot by Bruce Weber. Behind the scenes by Danielle Nussbaum. Fashion Editor Havana Laffitte.



Is Taylor ready for the success and spotlights !? "There are twelve cars that camp outside my house, You can't ever really get used to it, because it's not normal to have people snapping pictures of everything you do. You just have to try not to let it affect you." Unfortunately today that is the minimum price to pay when you want to be famous.

What about Twilight!? According to Taylor, there is a very specific sort of girl who's going to sign up for what's become known to Twilight fans as Team Jacob. "If she likes having a really close friendship with a guy," he begins, "being able to tell him anything, and then having that friendship slowly transform into something more...."

OK! and what about the boys!? Are Twilight's fans only hysteric 'straight' teenage girls !?

PETER JOHNSON IN CHOP SUEY by BRUCE WEBER

Peter Johnson is the star of Bruce Weber's 2001 film ChopSuey. Bruce Weber first met Peter Johnson at a wrestling camp in 1996 and followed him around with a camera for the next 4 years. The result was the book CHOP SUEY (a collector's item today, it sells for hundreds of dollars) and the film of the same name.



Bruce Weber does not allow his films to come out on DVD but as we have announced earlier this month the Sundance channel screened the rarely-seen films [Gonne Fishing A Little Journey In My Backyard]



Looking at those short films feels like you just woke up from a wonderful dream, you are not sure if what you saw was real or fantasy. It's blurred in your memory but the the feeling is good. You will even see Sir Ian McKellen, a naked man and an elephant on the beach ...

PORTRAITS OF ROBERTO BOLLE by BRUCE WEBER

Bruce Weber's book with Roberto Bolle photos is available on Amazon. Besides the cover and one photo on Amazon none other shot have been revealed, but we have seen a lot of pictures of Roberto by Bruce Weber and so far it was pretty amazing so I bet this book is a must have.



For those of you who have no idea who Roberto Bolle is (shame on you) Roberto is an Italian ballet dancer accepted at the La Scala theatre ballet school in Milan at the age of eleven. He has appeared in numerous fashion and style magazines, and has been featured in advertising campaigns. And on top of being talented he is gorgeous :-) and that always helps in life.

ANTHONY GALLO FOR A&F

Anthony Gallo [Major] looking good in those Abercrombie & Fitch outtakes by John Urbano.

In other A&F news, the company will close its 29 Ruehl stores and related operations by the end of the year. Abercrombie as a whole hasn't reported sales growth since April 2008 [The Wall Street Journal] Will Anthony's smile be enough to balance the lack of new collections and high prices !?

RAFAEL NADAL BY BRUCE WEBER FOR VOGUE

Those of you waiting for Rafael Nadal to win this years' Roland Garros can keep waiting ... With Rafael Nadal out of the French Open, all we got is the new Vogue and some photos by Bruce Weber.

When you think Bruce Weber, what comes to mind is young beautiful people naked or running in the fields holding their falling pants ...



For those you have never seen the master of photography he can be seen in the Vogue video while he was in Miami to shoot Rafael Nadal.



No this is not Santa Claus it is Bruce Weber ... hey maybe Bruce Weber is Santa Claus ... after all this years offering us so many amazing photos I would not be surprised ;-)

FORTUNE'S CHILDREN by BRUCE WEBER

It must be nice to be young rich and beautiful, of course it does not guarantee happiness in life ... but it sure must help ;-) For the June issue of Vanity Fair Bruce Weber captured some of the lucky winners one around the world, and we have selected our favorites!

On the first picture Count Gian Luca Passi Preposulo and below, Armie hammer and Carlo Mondavi. I am a little disappointed by Andrea Casiraghi's picture since I think he is the hottest man I would have prefered a more Abercrombie picture of Bruce ... see more photos and all the details in the gallery below.



What’s it like being young and beautiful, with a 24-karat pedigree and inherited wealth, in populist, economically perilous 2009? The 38 heirs and heiresses who posed for Bruce Weber are making privilege count—many, like Ivanka Trump and Antoine Arnault, in the family business; some, like Mercedes-Benz scion Alex Flick, in areas of their own choosing.
