Rumer’s Golden Globes

Apparently, you no longer have to be gorgeous to be Miss Golden Globe.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced on Wednesday that Rumer Willis will be their 2008 reigning queen.

Wow. I hope she gets her chin ground down by Dr. 90210 before then.

The Golden Globes are airing January 13th on NBC.

“We are delighted to have Rumer Willis join us to celebrate ‘The 65 th Annual Golden Globe Awards,’” said Jorge Camara, head of the Hollywood Foreign Press, at the announcement. “Since both of her parents [Bruce Willis and Demi Moore] have enjoyed successful entertainment careers in the read more ....

Mariah’s Marshmellows to the Rescue

Posted under Free for All & Britney Spears & beauty & Beyonce & Giorgio Armani & Mariah Carey & Hilary Duff & Usher & Giselle Bundchen

mariah_carey_perfume.jpgThe name isn’t all that creative, and the idea isn’t really all that great, but Mariah Carey’s new perfume (called “M” - like we said, not that creative), is helping Arden - the company bankrolling the scent - sell, sell sell.

Arden, which is also known for its celeb perfumes by the likes of Britney Spears, Hilary Duff and Liz Taylor, had been struggling to make sales goals until the launch of “M.”

Guess it’s good to know Mariah can still sell something …

Is Britney Believable?

Posted under Britney Spears & beauty

believe.jpg

Britney’s new fragrance ad is being accused of being too good to be true. The pop princess-turned-basket-case is making another move (lurch?) toward somehow trying to resurrect her career. Sadly, what she’s hoping will help her image and brand may actually end up hurting the label that’s behind this latest re-invention. Britney’s newest creation is Believe, a perfume sold under the Arden brand. It follows Curious, Fantasy, and In Control released in previous years.

But there’s one slight problem with the ads promoting the perfume. They look too good to be true. That’s the word expressed by many who say read more ....

Keira and Chanel

Posted under Free for All & fashion & Kate Moss & beauty & Keira Knightly & Nicole Kidman

mad.jpg

Keira Knightley has seemingly been taking her commitment as Chanel’s new girl pretty seriously. She’s been snapped recently in some of the label’s newest, hottest togs. We’ve seen her toting Chanel’s new Cabas tote bag, wearing a gown from Chanel’s Resort Collection, and now her campaign as the face of Mademoiselle perfume is making its debut.

At first glance, it seemed as though Chanel traded one (albeit somewhat fading) twiggy star (Kate Moss) for another - but in these recent ads it looks as if Keira may be sporting some new curves.

Move Over Kate Moss!

Posted under Free for All & Kate Moss & beauty & Maggie Gyllenhaal

agent1.jpg

Whilst Kate Moss keeps busy alternately kicking out and shacking up with her druggie boyfriend Pete Doherty, Maggie Gyllenhaal has usurped her as the smokin’ hot face and sensational body of the new Agent Provocateur campaign.

Perhaps drawing on the skills she learned as the masochistic self-mutilator in the genius 2002 film Secretary, Maggie smolders and steams in the gorgeous new pictures.

Who could possibly guess she just gave birth less than a year ago (to her daughter with her actor fiancé Peter Sarsgaard)?! While she does have a beautiful body, it’s her saucy, knowing personality that really makes the read more ....

Lingerie Awards Celebrate Fundamentals

Posted under fashion & beauty & events

lingerie blog.jpgNowadays, we give awards for just about everything - actors, films, music videos, fashion, people who think they can sing (American Idol), models, people who think they can dance (that’s pretty self explanatory). And the list goes on and on. One of the most recent awards ceremonies - the lingerie awards - brought out some little known designers to represent some of the lesser appreciated items women put on every day. And if you think about it, it probably makes a little more sense than making a wannabe singer from the Midwest, the next big sensation.
The awards were read more ....

“Rosie Gets Ready to Rumble!”

Posted under beauty & Rosie ODonnell

rosie odonnell blog.jpg“Rosie Gets Ready to Rumble!”
Elton John’s “Saturday Night’s Alright (For Fighting)” could have been Rosie ODonnell’s anthem this past weekend. While vacationing with her partner Kelli Carpenter in South Beach, Florida, the former “View” co-host got into a spat with a biker! (We guess after rumbling with Donald Trump Ms. ODonnell got a little cocky.) After an early dinner on Saturday afternoon, the women returned to their vehicle to find a Harley Davidson parked too-close-for-comfort. To avoid hitting the bike, Rosie opted to stand near it while Kelli backed out of their parking space.
Next, the owner of the read more ....

Michelle Pfeiffer Is A Star

Posted under celebrities & news & beauty & Michelle Pfeiffer

Michelle the Star

Michelle Pfeiffer now has her own star on the Hollywood walk of fame – a long overdue star!

Pfeifer has appeared in some of the most highly regarded films in history and has even gotten a total of three Oscar nominations. But what really separates Pfeiffer from the rest of the Hollywood actress herd is that she personifies a true movie star. Never was she hounded by paparazzi to a fault, never did she broadcast the ins and outs of her high profile relationships, nor have we ever caught her in a candid beach photo or exiting her car read more ....

11th Richest Model, Actress, Mother - Now Clothing Designer

Posted under celebrities & news & fashion & beauty

Kebede

Here’s a slightly different take on the superstar-turned-fashion-designer: Supermodel mom Liya Kebede is designing a line of children’s clothing for kids aged three months to ten years old. Sure, designing a line for kids isn’t completely unheard of - Victoria Beckham and Katie Holmes are combining forces (and fashion prowess) to outfit youngsters as well. But it’s definitely a twist on the typical star who wants check “fashion mogul” off their list.

Kebede’s own kids – her son Suhul is 6 and daughter Raee is 2– will obviously provide some inspiration. You probably won’t hear her spouting the typical lines read more ....

Witherspoon: The New Chin of Avon

Posted under celebrities & fashion & beauty & Reese Witherspoon

Pointy Chinned Reese

Am I the only person who finds Reese Witherspoon disturbingly unattractive?

Her forehead is too high and her chin could serve as a shish-kabob skewer; yet she has been chose to be the new global face of Avon Cosmetics.

The divorcee has suffered a lot of injustices this year so I guess hawking a third rate cosmetics line is final insult. I mean seriously Reese – Revlon would have been classier. She probably needs the money to pay Ryan Phillipe’s alimony payments every month.

Witherspoon was the “it” girl for awhile but her husbands affairs cast a read more ....
