- While her Wal-Mart lines aren’t faring well in sales, Miley Cyrus isn’t looking too worried these days, as she flashes her leopard print bra for the public while picking up some grub. While the matching prints are a bit tacky, it’s nice to see that she’s actually wearing a bra.
- Janet Jackson was spotted in London yesterday, having chopped off her locks. While I was never a fan of the Amber Rose trend, I can’t say that I’m hating Jackson’s look!
- I love Michelle Williams and I love Chanel, but when the pair were together for the after party of her film Blue Valentine‘s premiere, I fell out of love for what looked like Grandma’s satin bed sheet vengeance. Her new short hair style is killer, but not with the plain fabric wrap.

- Kate Moss have some fairly interesting ideas, but I do have to give it to her for innovation. The Topshop designer attended the unveiling of her latest collection in one of her own pieces, but she wore it backwards! She has this uncanny ability to wear anything so well that I doubt that anyone would’ve known had it not been in her line.

Blake Lively Trained With Cirque du Soleil for Role
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Actress and stylish celebrity Blake Lively credits gymnastic acrobatics for her newly-toned figure.
The Gossip Girl actress had to get in shape to play villainess Star Sapphire in new movie Green Lantern and spent hours training with members from the Cirque du Soleil to give her the body she needed.
She told Vogue, “All I want is to be a hero to my nephews and nieces. I’m going to be the coolest aunt ever. Our director likes it real - the fights close and dirty. I’m 40 feet in the air, spiralling around. That’s the best workout you can ever do because it’s all core. You do that for ten minutes and you should see your body the next day! It’s so exhilarating, so thrilling - and nauseating.”
The 22-year-old beauty’s personal trainer also confirmed Blake had put in that extra bit of effort to get into tip-top shape. Bobby Strom told Us Weekly, “She always looks good. But she has to do stunts, so we’re focusing on core and strength training. Her workout routine includes four-day-a-week, 90-minute circuit training sessions full of planks, push- ups and walking lunges in a gym near the film’s New Orleans set. She looked at her stomach and said, ‘I have abs!’”
Sharon Stone Regrets Plastic Surgery
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Not all actresses enjoy the outcome of going under the knife: Sharon Stone thinks she looked “like a trout” when she had plastic surgery.
The 52-year-old admits she had her lips boosted with injections in a bid to boost her self-esteem following her divorce from Phil Bronstein six years ago, but was horrified by the results. Explaining her thought processes at the time, she said, “Nobody loved me. I’m 103. My life would be better if I had better lips.”
Recalling her response afterwards, she told America’s More, “What the hell? I looked like a trout.”
The Basic Instinct star also admitted she doesn’t think her age will make her change her sense of style: “You know, I’m still wearing a bikini. That’s my bathing suit. I’ll be wearing leather pants when I’m 70 because that’s my style.”
Items Du Jour: Olsens Look to London, Zac Looks to Paris, and Rodarte on Daytime TV

- At last night’s big Belvedere Pink Grapefruit event in New York, Ashley Olsen revealed that a certain city across the pond will be the inspiration for the pair’s next Olsenboye collection. That’s nice and all, but I’d really appreciate if they’d concentrate on getting the line out of JCPenney.
- While it may not be London who calls for Zac Posen, Paris has caught the American designer’s eye. Posen, who has been unhappy with how New York critics have treated him during fashion week debuts, says that he wants to show in the city of love because “they understand my clothes.”
- With a slew of dark looks lately, Lady Gaga performed at the Rainforest Fund’s 21st Birthday Celebration in an all-white custom Calvin Klein creation. She even wore a light gray wig to match!
- As her younger sister Georgia Jagger steams up the latest Chanel ads, model Elizabeth Jagger is contemplating full-on nude spreads now that she’s getting older. Has she seen Helena Christensen and Claudia Schiffer lately?
- There’s a new bag in town, and it’s called the Schitbag. If only I made these things up. I’m almost tempted to buy it simply to tout the fact that I have a fashionable schitbag.
Miranda Kerr credits yoga with helping maintain her stunning figure.
The Victoria’s Secret model is a huge fan of the relaxation technique and although she knows staying slim is vital for her career, she would do it anyway because of the health benefits.
The 27-year-old beauty said, “Regardless of whether I was doing this job or not I would be taking care of my body. Yoga is very good for me.”
Australian Miranda - who is dating Orlando Bloom - says having a healthy lifestyle is something she has grown up with: “It’s something that I’ve always believed in growing up. We always ate organic vegetables. Taking care of my mind, body and soul is very important.”
Miranda recently revealed she feels a responsibility as a model to promote healthy eating, particularly to the younger and more impressionable members of society. “As soon as you step into the public eye you need to take responsibility for the people you are influencing. Body image is something that the majority of young women struggle with and I do think it is important that models are seen to be healthy and at a weight that works for their body type.”

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
Almay signs actress Kate Hudson on as their new celebrity spokesperson.
The 31-year-old actress - daughter of screen comedy legend Goldie Hawn - will front the new worldwide campaign for the cosmetics brand in her new role as Global Brand Ambassador.
Kate - who replaces model Elaine Irwin-Mellencamp - said in a statement, “Almay is known for its fresh, effortless approach to beauty. I share that philosophy and I’m honored to be partnering with a brand that believes cosmetics should bring out the natural beauty inside every woman. At the end of the day, we all want to have fun and feel beautiful - that’s what Almay is all about.”

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,
First she was baring her curves and womanly figure—now Kim Kardashian is baring her natural complexion to prove that she’s just as beautiful without the glam.
The 29 year-old reality star bravely shed her makeup for an all-natural Life & Style shoot. “Make-up is fun, but it’s just another accessory. I’m happy with myself, and this is who I am. As much as it’s fun to glam up, the most important thing is to be comfortable in your own skin - with or without make-up,” she told the magazine.

Gemma Arterton Happy With Her Curves
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, News,
Much like A-list actress Anne Hathaway, Prince of Persia starlet Gemma Arterton refuses to conform to Hollywood’s idea of the perfect figure.
The stunning actress is a UK size 8-10 (US 4-6) and while she’s still very slim, it is regarded as big in the movie world but Gemma won’t risk her health in a bid to fit into a smaller size.
“I went to a designer the other day, who will remain nameless, and he said to me, ‘I’m amazed that you’re fitting into those sample sizes.’ And I thought, ‘Hang on a minute! I’m a size eight to 10! I should be amazed that the largest you’re making these in a size six.’ But the only way I could ever be a size six is if I didn’t eat. I’m not naturally meant to be that size, and I just feel like there’s a responsibility for people that aren’t that size to make that known. All I can do, I think, is try to look good. I have things made for me, so they fit.”
Gemma, 24, also chooses designers which cater for women with a curvier figure. She told Stylist, “Louis Vuitton always makes things in decent sizes that look good on anyone who has hips and a waist. And I really like L’Wren Scott, Alberta Ferretti, Givenchy, Balmain and Armani. I only wear this stuff at event. The rock ‘n’ roll look is more my sort of thing.”
