Gwen Stefani and Gavin RossdaleGwen Stefani wears make-up to make her husband Gavin Rossdale like her more.

The No Doubt singer - who is known for her trademark red lips and pale skin - has confessed that the main reason she wears such heavy make-up is to please her husband of ten years, rock musician Gavin. "I like to make my husband like me more, and he likes it when I'm wearing makeup," she told Harper's Bazaar.

Gwen added to the interviewer, "I already put my makeup on twice today: I put it on to take my kid to school, and then I went home, washed my face, and put it on again to have lunch with you."

The blonde bombshell also said you would need to "torture yourself" in order to achieve her rock solid abs and the 42-year-old claims her enviable figure is down to a strict exercise regime. "There is no secret: You just have to eat healthy, work out, and torture yourself!" she joked.

Daisy Lowe on PlayboyDaisy Lowe "freaked out" when she first saw her Playboy pictures.

The 23-year-old British model posed nude for the September 2011 issue of the adult publication and admits she got nervous about her decision when she realized the world would be able to see every part of her body when she was sent the final spread.

"When I got the email with the pictures, I was quite shocked by the last photo and thought, 'Did they have to show that much of it?' I was a little freaked out," she recalls.

While Daisy's mother, former rocker Pearl Lowe, refused to look at the pictures, her grandmother encouraged her and urged her to be proud of her beautiful body. "Oh darling, if you've got it, flaunt it, you'll be happy about it when you're 60," her grandmother told her.

SnookiSnooki wants to give birth in heels. The Jersey Shore star is expecting her first child with fiance Jionni LaVelle but the diminutive celebrity says she has no intention of giving up her high heels when she is in labor.

"I'm packing heels, my leopard-print gown, eyelashes and makeup! I wanna look good when [my baby Lorenzo] first sees me," she said.

Snooki - real name Nicole Polizzi - is famed for her outrageous drunken behavior on Jersery Shore, but now she is going to be a mother, she has decided to give up alcohol completely. "Obviously, no drinking, none whatsoever. I'm scared to even have caffeine. My friends were like, 'You can have a glass of wine' and I'm like no, I refuse. I'm going to be that person who has a glass of wine and [the baby] comes out with three legs. I just don't like to be around people who drink because then I'll be like, 'Cool, I miss it,'" she previously explained.

Snooki recently filmed season six of the MTV reality show in Seaside Heights, New Jersey with castmates Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Pauly DelVecchio, Deena Cortese, Vinny Guadagnino, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro, and Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola, but lived in a separate house to the others, because she didn't want to be surrounded by people partying.

Blake LivelyBlake Lively pretends to be Marilyn Monroe on the red carpet.

The Gossip Girl star gets self-conscious at showbiz events and tries to channel the confidence of the Hollywood sex siren to survive the ordeal: "I have insecurities like any girl. I used to be really shy and unconfident. I hated being tall. Walking the red carpet is scary, so I pretend to be Marilyn Monroe - someone who owned their sexuality and projected this incredible aura of self-confidence."

Down-to-earth Blake, 24, prefers staying at home to attending parties and says she feels sexiest when she is cooking. "I really like to cook. Cooking makes me feel sexy. I think there's something so sensual about it - the smells, the touches, the flavors, the experience of creating something. And, you know, when you're doing it with someone you love, creating that together. I think it's really attractive. I do a little of everything but Italian food is my favorite. And chocolate! Whenever I travel I go to cooking schools. I eat too much that's the problem."

Elle MacphersonElle Macpherson admits being a mother isn't always "pleasant."

The supermodel raises sons Flynn, 14, and nine-year-old Cy - whose father is her former partner Arpad Busson - and she says being tough on them is necessary, although it doesn't make her popular.

"My role as a parent is not the most pleasant one at times. I don't delegate that work so I get a lot of, 'I hate you, mum, you're the worst mother in the world because you're making me do homework when I don't have any.' I say, 'Cool, you're still sitting down for a little while and revising some of the more sticky subjects, or reading another chapter of your book, because a little a day goes a long way and avoids last-minute panic.' Then I get, 'But I don't need to, I don't have exams.' I say, 'I understand, so what did you do today?' Let's have a look at your books together and you can work out a plan for when you do have exams.'"

However, Elle, 48, believes her tough stance "pays off" with her sons' school work: "I am the worst mother in the world, apparently, but the boys' dedication pays off."

Mary-Kate Olsen with Olivier Sarkozy and his daughterMary-Kate Olsen is moving in with boyfriend Olivier Sarkozy.

The fashion designer has been dating Olivier - the half-brother of former French President Nicolas Sarkozy - for around four months and now the couple are set to spend a lot more time together. Olivier, 42, is buying a townhouse in New York and although they won't officially be living together, 25-year-old Mary-Kate will be there most of the time.

"They are really, really happy. And Olivier is buying a townhouse below 14th Street, to be with Mary-Kate. We are told they're not officially moving in together - they both think it's too early for that. But he's telling friends that Mary-Kate is the best thing that has happened to him in a long time," a source told The New York Post.

Mary-Kate previously dated artist Nate Lowman for over two years before splitting in 2010, while Olivier romanced actress Stella Schnabel for a year before their break-up in March. Olivier was previously married to wife Charlotte and they have two children together. Charlotte has since called the coupling "grotesque" and "not right."

Angelina Jolie and her kids with Jane PittAngelina Jolie is reportedly furious with Jane Pitt for buying her six-year-old daughter fairy outfits.

The Oscar-winning actress raises six children with Jane's son Brad and while she is happy for their oldest biological daughter Shiloh to dress like a boy, Jane insists on purchasing her girly outfits, much to Angelina's annoyance.

"It's well documented that Shiloh likes to dress like a boy. But Jane still insists on buying her fairy costumes and princess dresses, which Angelina finds very disrespectful," a source said.

Angelina - who also has kids Maddox, 10, Pax, nine, Zahara, seven, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne with Brad - is still furious with Jane for writing a letter against legalizing same-sex marriage in the US, even though Brad and Angelina are huge gay rights activists.

David and Victoria BeckhamVictoria Beckham tries not to think about how famous she is.

The Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer and her husband David Beckham are one of the most photographed couples in the world, but Victoria admitted interest in her personal life makes her uncomfortable: "I think I'd be freaked out if I thought about that too much. Honestly I wake up every morning and pinch myself. I appreciate how lucky I am. I don't take anything for granted. I have an amazing family and a job I love. It's all so incredible."

Although she has reached worldwide fame through first her music career and now her own fashion label, Victoria has no plans to slow down and is instead considering new areas to branch out in. "[I might design] shoes next. Or something surprising in technology perhaps. All I know right now, is that I'm enjoying the journey."

Victoria says she never set out to be a huge business brand and just designed clothes because she enjoyed it: "I didn't set out to create a big brand or business. I just set out to design, to have a creative outlet. It's what I like to do. I love fashion. It's my hobby that's turned into a successful business. Of course I have to work hard at it. I'm up early and most of the night as well."

Hilaria Thomas and Alec BaldwinAlec Baldwin's wedding to Hilaria Thomas was "incredible."

The actor's brother Stephen Baldwin had a great day at the nuptials between the pair in New York last month, and he claims he could not be happier for his sibling: "The wedding was fantastic. It was incredible, beautiful, went off without a hitch. Hilaria was gorgeous, Alec was over the moon. I can't be more happy for him, he looks great and he's in love and I wish him all the best."

Stephen also believes his brother's new slim physique may be down to the fact his wife is a yoga teacher. "His new wife is a yoga instructor, so obviously you're seeing Alec look so well as a result of the downward dog, so to speak," he joked.

Meanwhile, Hilaria's wedding dress designer Amsale Aberra has confirmed she was "very easy going" during the creation of the gown: "She is really down-to-earth and having that simplicity was important to her. It's not about saying, 'Make me something nobody has seen! Make me an outrageous dress!' She is a very easy-going person, and it did fit her personality."

Katy PerryKaty Perry feels she has a split personality.

The "Firework" hitmaker admits her outrageous outfit choices reflect her moods at the time and says that is why her creations are sometimes bizarre because she feels a mixture of emotions.

"My sense of style is like one of those things that change color with mood, always evolving. When I get up, I choose my outfit depending on my state of mind. If it is a 'mixture of many things' it is because I feel many different emotions at the same time, to the point where you feel you almost have a split personality. Basically, in the past, my preferences were always directed towards styles that were daring; the flashier, shinier and imposing the dress the better, this is the reason why I still love the work of Jean Charles de Castelbajac and Jeremy Scott."
