Demi Moore graces the cover of Harper's Bazaar's April 2010 issue and gives the magazine a candid interview about her relationship with Ashton Kutcher as well as commentary on the whole cougar phenomenon.

"Cougar has become so distasteful. I really hate that expression," she told Bazaar Instead, she'd prefer to be called a puma. "It has a sweeter quality, more elegant. And then somebody said to me, 'Pumas are only for people in their 30s.'"

"I knew it had the potential to be something special right away," she said about meeting Kutcher for the first time. "It was like meeting somebody that I've just known where you just recognize one another. It was so disproportionate, the level of emotion we were experiencing to the time we had spent together. But when you don't know someone, you can't just jump and say, 'I love you.' 'Nice to meet you, I love you!' Yeah. No. We used to end our calls or emails with 'And everything we don't say.' It just seemed too much, too soon."

The April 2010 issue of Harper's Bazaar hits newsstands March 30.
