Renée Zellweger looked flirty and feminine posing for the February cover of Marie Claire [1], a big difference from the Golden Globes [2] look that landed her on our worst dressed list [3]. Besides showing her face on the red carpets [4] during award season [5], she's busy promoting her movie, New in Town [6]. After a few failed relationships, including her marriage to Kenny Chesney, Renee opens up to the magazine about her current love life and why she doesn't consider herself single. Here are some highlights: [7]

• On marriage: "I never say never about anything, because I look back on my own personal history and it shocks me. If I would ever have said, 'Oh for sure this is going to be in my future,' most of my experiences would not have been on my list. So I don't even bother thinking about it, because I've learned that there's no anticipating that stuff."
• On her love life: "The thing is, I'm away all the time. I suppose if I sat still long enough to get to know somebody beyond a dinner date, maybe. But I don't feel like my life is empty or that I have to make something happen. I have projects to develop. I want to study American history and political science, live in an apartment in France, and fix my bad French. And is there really time for all of it? Last summer, when I said it wasn't the right time for something I wanted to do, a friend asked, 'How long are you going to live?' I'm not single, I'm busy. That's my line."

Renee seems happy without a man in her life as she concentrates on checking things off her to-do list and enjoying her independence. To read the full story and see more photos pick up the new issue of Marie Claire [9] on newsstands.
