"The staff and I felt what I believe a lot of people in America are feeling. Which is just enormous Paris fatigue," noted editor-in-chief Janice Min. "I don't think we even mention the city of Paris." Adorning this week's cover will be the daughter of Tom Crusie and Katie Holmes, and inside—more Hollywood babes.
