Amanda Seyfried covers the June issue of Vogue to promote Ted 2, the sequel about an expletive-spewing teddy bear. It’s a weird use for a fashion bible feature, but sure. In the movie, Ted will get married to his human girlfriend, and Mark Wahlberg’s character agrees to father the couple’s child. Amanda plays the family lawyer who is tasked with proving Ted is “human” enough to have custody of a child. Set photos have indicated that Amanda and Mark’s characters hook up, which sounds about right for a Seth McFarlane movie.

In this interview, journo Vicki Woods describes Amanda as “a serious hugger.” Amanda covers a variety of topics, including her social anxiety and how she was embarrassed to watch her drunk appearance on Letterman. She frets over Finn the dog and how she’s hyper aware of his mortality. As an obsessive dog owner, I can identify with that fear. In a significant move, Amanda also discusses her relationship with Justin Long. They’ve been dating since August 2013, and Amanda’s finally giving some dish:

On her Letterman appearance: “It made it fun for me, but then I watched it and was like ‘That is not what I want to promote about myself.’” Soon after, she started seeing a shrink to help get over her debilitating fear. “I have a lot of anxiety that I’ve been struggling with my whole life. So I have been working through it. I’m terrified, but this is exactly what I wanted.”

She worries about Finn: “I just don’t want to leave him anymore. Maybe it’s because I’m subconsciously aware of his mortality. I try not to think about it, but somewhere inside of me, I’m like, He’s going to die way sooner than all the rest of the people I know!”

How she got together with Justin: “I followed him on Instagram, and I thought something he said was really funny. It was a beautiful picture of a snail, and the caption said, ‘F***ing MOOOOOOOOVE.’ It made me laugh out loud, so I texted him. I really do have my own identity, both inside and outside the relationship, if that makes any sense. It just feels right. It’s also really good to feel OK being alone.”

Amanda is usually very private about her romances, so it’s notable to see her discussing Justin with the media. She dated her own private army of douches for so long, and Justin seems like the nicest guy. I suspect an engagement might be on the horizon. In the interview, Amanda mentions an impending wedding at her house, but she’s talking about her sister’s upcoming ceremony. Amanda will catch the bouquet.

Vogue also filmed an “original short” of Amanda and Finn having the most amazing day together in New York City. You can watch it here. I’m going to go watch it again.
