Cindy Crawford can still rock the runway at 43, but this world-class beauty/entrepreneur knows that aging gracefully as a Supermodel isn't as easy as it seems. Crawford, who is launching her JCPenney home collection next month, graces the September cover of REDBOOK and inside, poses for intimate photos with husband Rande Gerber at their Malibu, CA home.  In the interview, she opens up about cellulite, the pressure of being an aging Supermodel, and what she does on date nights with Rande .

On cellulite: "I have cellulite," she says, laughing. "I admit it. But sometimes I just say, 'Screw it, I am going to wear a bikini.'"

On the pressures of aging: "I think I look good for my age. I am not 25; I am 43. That feels like a big pressure, especially when the National Enquirer is dying to get a picture. I am so aware that I don't want to change the way I live because of that kind of attention. So you say, 'Screw it. I am wearing a bikini, and I am not putting on a cover-up.' You just brace yourself for a bad picture."

On being Cindy Crawford: "People get excited that they're meeting the Cindy Crawford from the Playboy spread 13 years ago, and I am a mother of two now. I have to check in with myself. It's good to have an awareness of the outside pressure; I can't let it get to my core. I love my life."
