Moore pleased with 'W' photos

NEW YORK, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Actress Julianne Moore says although she's thrilled with her sexy new "W" magazine photo spread, she doesn't usually see herself as glamorous.

"You're only a 'movie star' in a 'movie star' context; if you go to a premiere or something," Moore recently told UPI.

"But when you're at home, you're still the person that cuts up the apples to eat in the morning and you're still the person that changes the diapers and makes the bed and does all that," said the star of the new thriller, "The Forgotten." "You're still the mom. You're still the partner. You're still the sister or the daughter. That's who you are -- always."

Asked about the reaction those steamy "W" photos are getting, the 43-year-old, four-time Oscar nominee said: "That was so much fun to do and it was great and it was utterly flattering and wonderful. At the same time, I'm always completely aware that it's a photograph and it's an illusion. ... I think it's fun to enjoy them, but to also keep everything in perspective."
