Obama on the 2013 State of the Union: ‘We cannot cut our way to prosperity’!

A politically emboldened President Obama railed against Congress on Tuesday for its lack of compromise on budget cuts as he called for greater investments in education and infrastructure that he promised would be ‘fully paid for.’

‘Nothing I’m proposing tonight should increase our deficit by a single dime,’ Obama said during his State of the Union address. ‘It’s not a bigger government we need, but a smarter government that sets priorities and invests in broad-based growth.’

In a broad-ranging speech that lasted just over an hour, Obama grew emotional at times as he rallied for immigration reform, tighter gun controls, an increase in the minimum wage and greater energy independence. While he lauded the nation’s economic recovery, saying ‘rubble of crisis’ has been cleared, he acknowledged that America has a long way to go before the strength of its middle class is restored.

‘It is our generation’s task… to reignite the true engine of America’s economic growth – a rising, thriving middle class,’ Obama said. ‘We gather here knowing that there are millions of Americans whose hard work and dedication have not yet been rewarded,’ he added.

Obama talks Valentine’s Day… and hints that eldest daughter Malia is dating!

President Obama has revealed this Valentine’s Day that his eldest daughter could be dating. Mr Obama said on Thursday that as his children get older, ‘they have sleepovers and dates,’ prompting speculation there could be a first boyfriend for 14-year-old Malia.

The White House refused to comment on the subject, as the first couple have repeatedly tried to shield their daughters from the spotlight. Mr Obama’s big reveal came as he visited a school in Decatur, Georgia and weighed in on the challenges of parenting:

‘I do have to warn the parents who are here, who still have young kids, they grow up to be, like five feet 10 inches. And even if they’re still nice to you, they basically don’t have a lot of time for you during the weekends,’ he said, according to ABC News.

‘They have sleepovers and dates. So all that early investment just leaves them to go away,’ he added.

Malia is the president’s eldest daughter. He and his wife Michelle also have an 11-year-old daughter, Sasha. As rumors swirl about a possible suitor for Obama’s first born, the Commander in Chief assured supporters that he had done his bit to romance his beloved of 20 years, Michelle, for the festival of love.

Mark Zuckerberg and his wife are America’s second-biggest charity donors after giving away nearly half a BILLION dollars in one year!

Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan were the second-largest philanthropists in the country last year as they gave away nearly half a billion dollars.

The Facebook founder and his pediatrician wife donated a total of $498.8 million to charitable causes in 2012, putting them in line after billionaire Warren Buffett. Mr Buffet gave more than six-times more than his younger counterparts, giving away $3.1 billion to various causes, but it was the rapid ascent of the Zuckerbergs in the ranks of the country’s philanthropists that comes as more of a surprise.

Mr Zuckerberg, 28, made his first massive donation two years earlier when he announced that he was pledging $100 million to the Newark school system in New Jersey. That donation was tainted with cynicism as it came around the same time as the film The Social Network which portrayed him in a somewhat negative light. The spending spree didn’t stop there, however, as The Chronicle of Philanthropy reported that he donated 18 million shares of Facebook stock to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation in 2012.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian shows off growing bump as she and Kanye West catch carnival fever while sightseeing…

And the babymoon continues. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are making sure to see the world before their baby arrives. Despite having hundreds of thousands of fans between them, the couple attempted to blend in with the rest of the tourists in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on Saturday.

The reality power couple visited the famous Cristo Redentor – Christ the Redemer – statue atop of Corcovado Mountain. Obviously in awe of the statue, Kanye frantically snapped pictures of the landmark on his gold cell phone.

And, just like any other tourists, the couple made sure to get plenty of photographs of themselves replicating the statue’s iconic stance. In a change of pace for the mega stars all cameras were not on them as other tourists ignored the couple in favor of the more famous identity on the mountain – Jesus. Clearly enjoying the novelty of not being hounded, Kim playfully posed for her beau. With her arms stretched out, Kim put her growing baby bump on display.

Britain’s Got Talent: Alesha Dixon vamps it up in leather pants and a plunging blouse…

They’ve been embroiled in an inadvertent fashion battle since the Britain’s Got Talent auditions kicked off last month. But it would seem both Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden were saving their A-game until the final stages of the competition as they headed out in a pair of killer outfits on Saturday afternoon.

Stepping out in Birmingham, both judges chose to put their perfect pins on display – but in very different ways. Alesha, 34, chose a doubly daring ensemble for her final audition outfit, teaming a pair of form-fitting leather pants with a plunging red printed blouse.

With not an inch to pinch in her sexy pants, the singer flaunted her incredible curves in all their glory in the daring garment.

Charlize Theron is mesmerising as she teams her buzz cut with an elegant satin gown in Berlin…

Charlize Theron is out to prove women do not need long flowing hair to look great. The South African stunner ensured all eyes were on her as she stepped on to a red carpet in Berlin, Germany on Saturday evening.

Charlize wore her hair slicked down to one side for the charity event Cinema For Peace. Staring down the camera the dark-lipped beauty was mesmerizing. The 37-year-old showed off her sexy curves in a form fitting strapless silver satin gown. Gathered to one side and fastened into a intricate brooch, Charlize did not need any jewelry as she already sparkled.

Instead the Academy Award winner wore three simple silver bracelets and accessorized the gown with a metallic clutch. The actress made sure to show off her toned arms as she posed on the event’s red carpet. The Monster star is in Germany to attend the 63rd annual Berlin International Film Festival.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West can’t keep their hands off each other as they explore Rio with Will Smith and Duane Martin…

It’s hard to imagine what they must have been talking about. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were oddly pictured seeing the sights of Rio de Janeiro with none other than Will Smith and Duane Martin on Sunday.

The trio are in the Brazilian capital for its famous carnival, and Kim and Kanye seem to be on a never-ending babymoon since announcing they are expecting their first child together. The rapper and reality star power couple are staying in the hotel as Men In Black star Will. Perhaps after running into each other the duo invited Will to join them on a walking tour.

The stars traveled to nearby Vidigal where they admired views of Ipanema Beach, and Kim and Kanye were clearly feeling romantic as they couldn’t keep their hands off each other while Will stood politely, if a little awkwardly, by their side. Kim chose a summery look for the day of sightseeing, dressed in a flimsy white frock. It seems Kim is developing a distinct maternity style, as she sported a near identical dress, although in a hot pink shade, the day before.

Thandie Newton and Zawe Ashton brave the horrible London weather for the BAFTA Awards…

Biracial actresses Thandie Newton and Zawe Ashton attended the BAFTA Awards in London on Sunday night, to find themselves the victim of a weather disaster when they were drenched by the rainy British weather. Some of the biggest names in Hollywood braved the wind, rain and sleet to meet fans on the red carpet at the awards.

Stars including Hugh Jackman, Jennifer Lawrence and Eddie Redmayne stopped to sign autographs and pose for pictures outside the Royal Opera House in London’s Covent Garden. Among the celebrities at the EE British Academy Film Awards were Hobbit star Martin Freeman, Alicia Vikander and Tom Hiddleston.

Emeli Sandé shows off results of dramatic weight loss as she hits the red carpet at pre-Grammy gala…

Before: Singer Emeli Sandé cuts a slimmer figure on the red carpet at the pre-Grammy party on Saturday night, as previously seen at the MOBO Awards last November

She became the most ubiquitous singer of 2012 after her meteoric rise to fame. But Emeli Sandé was almost unrecognizable on Saturday night as she showed off the results of her dramatic weight loss on the red carpet at the pre-Grammy party at the Beverly Hilton in LA.

Cutting a very different figure to the one she’s known for, the 25-year-old made the most of her shrinking waistline in a tight black skirt and cream top. Clearly not planning on ditching her demure and sophisticated style just because she’s lost some weight, the award-winning singer stuck to her usually edgy take on retro chic.

Quashing rumors that she’s pregnant, the Read All About It singer showed off her tiny waist in the figure-hugging skirt and added a simple gold chain which complemented the delicate neckline of her top. The singer kept her trademark bleach blonde quiff and added a touch of lip gloss and shimmery powder to her much slimmer face.

They’ve so far got off to a shaky start in their Britain’s Got Talent fashion war thanks to their range of style misses. But nevertheless Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden are still going strong as they continue to rival each other’s wardrobe choices.

On Sunday the talent judges stepped out showing off their latest get-ups as they continue to film the new series. And it was Alesha who stood out the most this time thanks to her electric blue all leather ensemble. The former pop star showed off her flesh in the strapless blue leather top, which she matched with a coordinating pair of pants.

And just in case that wasn’t enough color she wore skyhigh wedges with a bright yellow trim to match her neon nails. Dixon completed her look with her dark locks tied up into a high ponytail, while she accessorized with a chunky necklace and smoky eye make-up. Amanda, meanwhile, stepped out in Birmingham playing it safer in an LBD. She showed off her slim figure as she posed for photographs outside their hotel.

Leona Lewis has naked male dancers on their knees for performance at figure skating show in Finland…

She has a voice of angel, but Leona Lewis looked more like a queen as she had naked men falling at her feet during her most recent performance. However these gents happened to be her male dancers, surrounding the singer as she sung to the audience assembled for the Art On Ice show in Helsinki, Finland.

In the middle of the ice, Leona’s ethereal voice rang out around the Hartwall arena as champion figure skaters performed on the ice below. In typical fashion, the former X Factor winner wore a full length ball gown, black and strapless, with a golden cape glistening as it hung down from her shoulders.

Caramel blonde pulled back into a high pony-tail, Leona was as beautiful as the sound of her soprano voice. Accompanying her on strings were 2Cellos’ Stjepan Hauser and Luka Sulic, and Swiss soul star Seven and the legendary Swiss theater troupe Mummenschanz also provided entertainment during the sell out show.

Zoe Saldana is white hot as she hosts Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science, Scientific and Technical Awards!

Her ex-boyfriend has been voted People Magazine’s sexiest man alive. But actress Zoe Saldana looked sizzling hot herself as she hosted the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science, Scientific and Technical Awards on Saturday in Beverly Hills.

The Avatar star showed off her knockout figure in a slim-fitting strapless white dress that hugged her curves in all the right places. The dress had a peek-a-boo cutout just below the bust, revealing just a small flash of skin. The unusual feature gave the illusion that the dress was made out of two pieces, not one.

The 34-year-old paired the dress with silver heels and a thin gold bracelet on her right forearm. She opted for a minimalist approach and wore her black glossy hair long and loose. The actress added a vixen touch with blood-red lips and red nail polish, which added a pop of a color to the otherwise monochrome outfit. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Her gold dangling earrings complemented her signature blonde shaved head.

Tulisa set to Scream & Shout as she sues will.i.am over song royalties claiming she wrote his Britney Spears smash hit…

Their rivalry as reality television judges has been taken up notch and will be settled by someone far more powerful than Simon Cowell. Tulisa and Will.i.am could end up battling in a court of law after the N-Dubz starlet has reportedly taken legal action against the rapper. The 24-year-old singer is claiming that she wrote some of the lyrics of the smash hit by will.i.am and Britney Spears, Scream & Shout.

The track, which went to number one in most of Europe, is now worth a lot of money in royalties and Tulisa wants a share of the profits. Tulisa is now said to be suing will.i.am even though the track is credited as being written by Jef Martens, Will, and Jean Baptiste. According to The Sun newspaper, Tulisa has started legal proceedings and feels she is entitled to a slice of the estimated two million single sales.

She told the newspaper: ‘Tulisa is still fuming with Will for taking the song off her. The fact the song blew up only makes it worse. She’s well within her right to claim some of the publishing money. If she proves the words are hers, she could get a huge pay-out.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

According to new reports, the Avatar star wants to reconcile with her on-off boyfriend Bradley Cooper, 38. However, Bradley’s mother Gloria is said to have told her son it isn’t a good idea, according to RadarOnline. The Silver Linings Playbook hunk ended his relationship with Star Trek beauty Zoe for the second time in December.

A source told the website: ‘Gloria tried to get to know Zoe when they rekindled their romance, but she still didn’t think she was a good fit for him. So, when Zoe and Bradley started talking to one another again, she told Bradley that their relationship failed twice already, what’s the point of going through all of that again?’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Mica Paris raves about her toyboy boyfriend… who is 346th in line to the British throne: ‘He’s flipping amazing!’

If a 15-year age gap wasn’t enough to test the relationship between Mica Paris and her blue-blooded boyfriend Prince Frederick Alexander Von Preussen, then the tiny issue of his noble heritage wasn’t going to be. The 43-year old soul singer has been dating 28-year-old Alex – who is 346th in line to the British throne – for four-years and is confident enough to say that:

‘there’s no one else I’d rather [marry] than Alex because he’s flipping amazing.’

Speaking in this week’s Hello! magazine Mica says that despite their different backgrounds, her relationship with Alex is ‘the best I’ve ever had.’ But it wasn’t all plain sailing for the singer, admitting that she nearly collapsed with shock when Alex opened up about his royal heritage two months into their blossoming relationship.

‘I thought “Oh for god’s sake!” and once again I had this fear,’ Mica recalled. ‘Now when I look back at all the things I used to worry about, it seems quite funny because when something is right, none of those things matter.’ Visit Hello Magazine to read the full interview…

Bored Kim Kardashian and Kanye West chat on their balcony… as Will Smith hosts a party upstairs!

The contrast couldn’t be greater. As Kim Kardashian and Kanye West share a quiet conversation on their balcony, a huge party rages above their heads. A hilarious photo captured the moment grinning Will Smith and a group of his friends inadvertently photo bombed Kimye’s tender moment.

Smith and his chums were obviously infected by the party spirit of the carnival raging away beneath them on the streets of Rio de Janeiro. Like Kim and Kanye they had flown to the hotspot for the massive bash. But unlike the quiet pair they were making the most of the party.

By contrast pregnant Kim and her boyfriend looked almost glum as they stood quietly taking in the spectacle beneath them. Kanye was dressed down in jeans and a T-shirt while Kim was all glamour in a white dress. Kim, 32, rested her head on her hand as she snapped photos, before the pair took out their phones.

Katherine Heigl towers over pint-sized Vanessa Hudgens as they take the front row at NYFW alongside, Matt Damon and Brooke Shields…

They both started their acting careers as very young girls. But Vanessa Hudgens and Katherine Heigl – separated by a decade and eight inches – looked a tad awkward when posing side-by-side at the Jenny Packham runway show in New York Tuesday.

The 34-year-old blonde, who began modeling at age 9, towered over the former Disney starlet in her sleeveless LBD with rhinestone-beading detail and white stilettos. Meanwhile the 24-year-old half-Filipina looked tanned and toned in her light-brown halter jumpsuit with sequined collar and beige peep-toe heels. Earlier Tuesday, the High School Musical actress found herself awkwardly posing with another gorgeous Amazon – six-foot-tall Brooke Shields.

As one of the world’s most famous supermodels, it’s no wonder Heidi Klum is rocking the latest color trend. The 39-year old clashed pink hues with dark orange shades to stylish perfection as she headed to the grocery store.

But her fashionable ensemble wasn’t just for the benefit of the everyday shoppers, but the cameras following behind. The outfit was casual yet striking,as the loose fuschia blouse juxtaposed with the drawstring pants. With the dark orange color as the central focus, Heidi complemented the tone with a Birkin bag and peep-toe sandals in contrasting pink accents, adding a tropical element that brought it all together.

Supermodels at war: As Naomi Campbell launches her new show, Tyra Banks’ TV hit comes to the end of its shelf life…

Their fashion feud was legendary – but now Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks’ acrimony is spilling over to our TV screens. British supermodel Naomi, 42, launches her new modelling show The Face tonight – while MailOnline can reveal that Tyra’s TV hit, America’s Next Top Model is being cut from two seasons a year to one as it comes to the end of its shelf life.

And after being unceremoniously axed from ANTM, former judge Nigel Barker is now the host of The Face – and tonight he takes a swipe at his former boss by introducing new co-star Karolina Kurkova as ‘Victoria’s Secret’s most famous angel’, formerly a title held by Tyra.

Nigel, 40, appeared on Watch What Happens: Live with Andy Cohen last night and Cohen broached his departure from ANTM after 18 seasons, saying bluntly:

‘You got canned.’ Asked if he had any resentment towards Tyra, Nigel replied: ‘For a moment, but, you know, it was a week later when I got a call from Oxygen saying, ‘We’d like you to be the host of ‘The Face. So, one week of resentment. I’m over it now. Now I’m the host. Watch out, Tyra!’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Racy Naomi Campbell displays her bra under a monochrome suit… as she ‘faces’ off with bold in cobalt blue Karolina Kurkova!

As coaches on their upcoming show The Face they are competing against one another to find the face of UTLA beauty. But it seems that mentors Naomi Campbell and Karolina Kurkova will also be battling it out for who is the best dressed on the reality show.

The two supermodels both slipped into suits to promote the show in New York on Tuesday. And Naomi, 42, did her very best to pip Karolina, 28, by slipping into a more revealing monochrome version. The British born model displayed her black bra under her matching attire, which featured white trim on the jacket and pants.

The 5’9 beauty boosted her already statuesque height with a pair of black velvet stilettos and wore her hair out in a voluminous wavy style. Meanwhile, Karolina could have also stopped traffic in her bold cobalt blue two-piece, which also featured white trim yet on the collar and lapels. She paired the attire with a matching billowing blouse and in contrast to her fellow mentor and host, the Czech blonde slipped on a pair of white pointed stilettos. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

‘That is not right. That’s not right. I have to leave,’ she said. ‘I’ll be back. I don’t want the camera.’

After storming into a room, Naomi waited until Karolina had returned from the elimination room and then unleashed her wrath. But the star then sauntered out of the room and approached Karolina in front of fellow coach Coco Rocha and all of the aspiring models.

‘Don’t even talk to me right now. Do not talk to me. Get out,’ Naomi said at first when Karolina tried to talk to her. ‘I’m very disappointed in your choice Karolina,’ Naomi said. ‘And all I’m gonna tell you is, it’s game on from now on.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

The 37-year-old Prometheus star held a black leather bag looped over her arm and was roomy enough to hold her things and some of Jackson’s needed items for the day. Her short hair, which she shaved off for her upcoming role in the Mad Max sequel, was spritzed into a stylish wave that showed off her handsome features to perfection. The Oscar-winning South African-born star has devoted herself completely to Jackson since his adoption.

Heidi Klum steals the spotlight in slinky leather pants on set of Germany’s Next Top model!

They are competing for the title of Germany’s Next Top Model. But with Heidi Klum hanging around they will have to work hard.

Even at age 39, the glamorous mother-of-four made for some pretty stiff competition on Tuesday as she hit the sidewalks of Beverly Hills to film her show. Heidi was dressed neck to toe in black, an outfit that featured figure-hugging black leather pants, a black top and tailored black blazer with silvery accented sleeves. The honey-blonde stunner added more inches to her five-foot-10 frame with a pair of black stiletto heels, which she wore expertly without wavering a bit.

Her eyes may have been concealed by large frame tinted sunglasses, but Heidi’s wide smile and obvious pleasure to be working radiated throughout her face. The former Victoria’s Secret Angel seemed to having a wonderful time. At one point a contestant had the misfortune of standing next to Heidi and not even her bright appearance – which included a hat and veil, fushcia brassiere, pink and black lacy jacket and clingy black pants – couldn’t outshine Heidi.

The star teamed with aviator sunglasses and donned black Chloe boots with gold buckles and studs on. She held her little girl’s hand as they walked back to their car and carried her education supplies in the spare hand. Nahla appeared to be questionable about her new choice of clothing for the afternoon as she pulled a number of quirky facial expressions. Wearing a pair of blue denim pants and a stripy pink top all day, Nahla had been dropped off that morning by her mother who was wearing a gym kit.

Reggie Bush and his pregnant Kim Kardashian lookalike girlfriend go clubbing in coordinated outfits!

Reggie Bush’s pregnant girlfriend shares more in common with his ex Kim Kardashian than just being an expectant mother – they also look uncannily alike. The Miami Dolphins football star, who dated Kim on-off from 2007 to 2010, took 25-year-old Lilit Avagyan out to trendy West Hollywood club Bootsy Bellows on Tuesday night.

The couple wore color coordinated black and white outfits, with Lilit tottering along in huge platform heels. Clearly pregnancy served no obstacle to her choice of vertiginous footwear, or put her off a night of clubbing. Lilit donned tight black leggings, a billowing white blouse and long cardigan, while Reggie wore black jeans and T-shirt teamed with a white jacket.

The couple announced they were expecting a child last October, with Reggie saying they were ‘pretty excited’: ‘I have a little one on the way,’ he told Florida’s Paul and Young Ron Morning Show. ‘We’re pretty excited… It’s an opportunity to bring in new life and raise a child.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

TSA investigates security breach at JFK airport after airline employee whisks Kim Kardashian and Kanye West past major checkpoint causing hour-long delay…

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is investigating a security breach involving Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. An airline employee reportedly whisked the couple past a major checkpoint at New York City’s John F Kennedy Airport on Tuesday. Passengers on their connecting flight to Los Angeles were delayed nearly an hour after both stars were pulled off the plane for additional screening.

A TSA spokesman told TMZ: ‘An airline employee escorted the two travelers through a non-public area in order to provide expedited access to their domestic flight. In doing so, the airline employee violated security protocols by permitting the travelers to by-pass the TSA security checkpoint.’

It is commonplace for celebrities to be greeted by an airline employee and whisked to the head of the line to expedite their travels. However, bypassing security checkpoints entirely is not permitted. The agency statement continued: ‘TSA officials learned of the violation and conducted a private screening of the two passengers in the area of the jetway.

Sports Illustrated model and food blogger Chrissy Teigen talks dieting for bikini shoots…

Sports Illustrated model and food lover Chrissy Teigen has revealed how she very reluctantly prepares for her ‘daunting’ bikini shoots. The 27-year-old, who is set to marry John Legend, explained to Cooking Channel TV that she hates dieting:

‘so much I can barely explain without getting angry, but I don’t walk onto the set of a swimsuit shoot without having that whole week prior being a pretty strict regimen.’

She doesn’t elaborate on what the ‘strict regimen’ is, but her Twitter feed and food blog indicate that juice cleanses are behind her swimsuit-ready physique. On December 11, the brunette tweeted a photograph of a large pan of mussels captioned with the description:

‘Served with bok choy and thai sea bass. Now we say goodbye to food and hello to juice for 1 week!’

And a previous post reads: ‘Juice fast means no wine, a little wine, sometimes wine, or have a ton of wine?’

Miss Teigen also goes into juice cleansing in more detail on her blog So Delushious! She wrote last October: ‘It’s honestly not something I push and advocate for, nor do I want to lose all credibility as someone who LOVES food. Trust me, I already got the, ‘you write a food blog and you don’t even eat’ s***’. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Olympic Gold-medalist Louis Smith is honored by Queen Elizabeth, II!

Strictly Come Dancing champion Louis Smith has become the latest Olympic champion to be honored by the Queen. Arriving in Buckingham Palace on Wednesday morning, Louis was awarded a MBE by Her Majesty. But the 23-year-old wasn’t the only dancer at the official residence of the British monarch, as former judge Arlene Phillips, 69, was presented with a CBE.

The Peterborough born star continued: ‘It’s quite amazing. It’s been a tremendous year for me.’ Having just completed the Strictly tour, Smith said he now wants to concentrate on sport rather than gaining celebrity status – specifically visiting schools to encourage children to get involved.

He said: ‘As athletes, we have a big responsibility to keep the legacy going. I’m starting to take a step back from the entertainment side and move into charity and school work.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Lookbook: Underwraps Agency Fall 2013 collection…

The founder of an agency that represents Muslim models is proving that women can dress modestly and walk the catwalk at New York Fashion Week. Nailah Lymus launched Underwraps Agency last year, and she is also a designer, stylist and practicing Muslim who merges the world of secular fashion with the sanctity of Islamic customs.

The 29-year-old, who styled the headpieces for the Ann Nahari show last weekend, told ABC News: ‘You can be modest and still be fashion-forward and stay true to your faith.’

For practicing Muslims like Ms Lymus, the figure-hugging, flesh-baring fashion world is often regarded as incompatible with their faith. And with labels receiving more attention the more skin they reveal, needing to cover up on the catwalk for religious purposes is hardly a selling point for aspiring models.

Sofia Vergara parades her toned pins in tight leggings as she hits the gym…

She’s been quoted as saying Latin women aren’t afraid of showing off a bit of skin. And while Sofia Vergara was somewhat covered up on Wednesday, she did give a little hint of what lies beneath in a pair of tight leggings.

Ensuring she was keeping her fabulous figure in check, the Modern Family star headed to the gym for a calorie-busting workout on Wednesday in Los Angeles. Sofia, 40, completed her look with a pair of bright orange trainers and a padded coat. The brown-eyed beauty looked in fine form in her tight black calf-length exercise pants paired with a grey loose top.

Despite having just completed a no-doubt-grueling workout, Sofia’s signature long, chestnut hair looked clean and shiny as it fell in loose waves over her shoulders. The busy actress had her hands full as she carried her cellphone in one hand and her car keys and a piece of paper in the other. At one point, the brunette looked deep in concentration as she checked something on her phone. Her schedule is likely packed now that she’s back filming Modern Family.

Actress Rosario Dawson smartens up for fashion week… but is soon back in sneakers!

As an actress she’s used to portraying different personas. So for Rosario Dawson, dressing up or down, and looking good while doing so, is a cinch. The actress was snapped on Wednesday looking chic in leather boots at a Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week event.

And on the same day she was looking casual and comfortable in black sneakers as she made her way into a building in New York City. The 33-year-old wore a light blue-and-brown tie-dye dress paired with black tights and boots to the Stacey Igel fashion show. The Rent star wore her long dark locks to the side, her curls falling loosely over her shoulder.

Kim Kardashian’s lawyer claims Kris Humphries is holding her ‘hostage’ over divorce in newly filed documents!!!

Kim Kardashian’s hotshot divorce lawyer is claiming she is being held ‘hostage’ by estranged husband Kris Humphries. The NBA star has claimed he is not ready to go to trial due to ‘uncooperative third parties’.

Fresh faced Angelina takes Pax and Zahara on low-key Hollywood shopping trip…

Angelina Jolie is a woman who marches to the beat of her own drum. And although she’s happy to slip into Versace to promote her or partner Brad Pitt’s projects, you get the feeling that she’s much happier living a normal family life… or fulfilling her role for the U.N.

So when the 37-year-old spotted out in Hollywood – as she was on Wednesday – it’s never in five star restaurants or emerging from Winsor Pilates. Her latest trip out was to take to take Pax, eight, and seven-year-old Zahara on a trip to Urban Outfitters to stock up on goodie, and she looked glowing with happiness and health as she did it.

None of the clan have a birthday around now, so it was possibly just a chance to stock up on clothes that reflect their individual personalities (something Jolie is big on). Zahara, in her leopard print leggings, and Pax in his Nirvana shirt certainly looked like big fans of the popular US chain, although the Nirvana love may have been inspired by indie music loving papa, Brad Pitt, 49, who wasn’t spotted on the trip. After a hiatus from the Hollywood carousel, Jolie emerged last Sunday evening at the 2013 American Society of Cinematographers Awards in Los Angeles. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Lewis Hamilton returns to Top Gear test track in an attempt to better his time!

He’s a Formula One ace who has graced the Top Gear test track once before. And now Lewis Hamilton is back on the popular TV show and he hopes to better his previous record. The 28-year-old driver aims to shave valuable tenths of a second off his previous lap in a bid to become the fastest professional on the circuit.

Lewis, who will be seen on the BBC2 show once more on Sunday, clocked up a circuit in 1 min 44.7 secs the last time he appeared in 2007. He will take to the ‘reasonably priced car’ track in the Suzuki Liana with the aim of beating the fastest F1 driver Sebastian Vettel who managed 1 min 44.0 secs. The racer’s previous appearance was with a wet track and he was unable to give it his all.

Meanwhile Lewis has recently returned from a break in his girlfriend Nicole Scherzinger’s home state of Hawaii, alongside his pet bulldog Roscoe. The loved-up couple made the most to the winter snow and the vast Hawaiian mountains, where they were joined by the Formula 1 driver’s sister Sam. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Amber Rose shows off full head of curls in flashback Twitter picture!

It’s hard to believe Amber Rose ever looked like this. Perhaps it was those pregnancy hormones that made the model feel suddenly wistful for days gone by when she sported a full head of curls. Amber took to Twitter this week to post a decade-old photo of herself at her high school homecoming dance sporting frizzy dark locks highlighted with purple strands.

The 29-year-old model wrote in the caption: ‘#Throwback homecoming dance circa 1999 :)’ Amber followed that sentiment by posting two more pictures of herself recently trying on long hairpieces in a wig shop, one blonde, one dark.
‘Lol trying on wigs with @priscillaono fun! :-)’ Amber tweeted.

She looked like a different person as she smirked at the camera, wearing hoop earrings, black scarf and spaghetti strap black frock. These days Amber is well known for her barely-there platinum blonde buzz cut, which makes hair-washing a swift task especially at this crucial time in her life. The outspoken glamour girl also indicated she’ll be off the radar so she can concentrate on her current state.

Kim Kardashian comes up roses as she’s greeted with a bouquet of flowers on Valentine’s Day…

She was embroiled in an airport security scandal earlier this week. But despite an on-going TSA investigation, Kim Kardashian was smelling of roses on Valentine’s Day – after being greeted with a bouquet of flowers as she left the gym.

The reality star was awarded the gift by one of the assembled photographers as she stepped out in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Of course the question on everyone’s lips: what did boyfriend Kanye West get her? Pregnant Kim was wearing her customary workout attire and appeared to be make-up free, hiding behind a pair of shades.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star looked delighted with her flower as the photographer handed them over. On Wednesday it emerged Kim and Kanye were involved in an airport security breach. An airline employee reportedly whisked the couple past a major checkpoint at New York City’s John F Kennedy Airport on Tuesday. Passengers on their connecting flight to Los Angeles were delayed nearly an hour after both stars were pulled off the plane for additional screening.

Rapper Drake ‘suing Chris Brown over nightclub brawl’ as model seeks damages for injuries in bottle-throwing fracas and vice versa…

The saga between Chris Brown and Drake was thought to be over late last year when police revealed neither star would face criminal charges over their nightclub brawl. But new reports reveal the singers are now suing each other over the incident at New York’s W.i.P club.

Court documents obtained by TMZ indicate neither party is claiming responsibility for the fracas on June 14, in the event a third party wins a suit filed against both men for damages suffered as a result over the fracas. The website reports French model Romain Julien filed suit against both Brown and Drake, real name Aubrey Drake Graham, in August after sustaining injuries in the fight, which saw bottles flying between entourages at the club.

According to MTV News, Julien claims he suffered a severed tendon in his right hand, lacerations, a cosmetic deformity and mental distress as a result of the incident. Newly-obtained filings show both Drake, 26, and Brown, 23, are asking a judge to blame the event on each other to avoid having to deliver on a potentially large payday should Julien win the suit.

Rapper Eve suggests Britney Spears didn’t sing on ‘Scream & Shout’!

Rap singer Eve threw some shade at Britney Spears when she suggested the pop superstar didn’t actually sing on will.i.am’s hit new track, “Scream & Shout.” During a recent sit-down with Andy Cohen for “Watch What Happens Live,” Cohen asked Eve about Spears’ British accent on the single for will.i.am’s upcoming album, “#willpower.”

“I heard that might not be Britney,” says Eve.

“Really?” asks Cohen. “Why? It’s someone else in the studio?”

“That’s what I heard,” says Eve. “But, you know, I don’t know. It could be Britney. But I heard it wasn’t. I don’t know.”

Eve, who is getting ready to drop her first album in 11 years, might have tried to play coy, but Spears’ publicist didn’t mince words when he snapped back at the rap star.

“It’s absolute BS,” publicist Jeff Raymond told TMZ. “Britney sang the song. Will.i.am wanted her for this song and she sang on it.” 

A source from the studio also got snippy. “Was Eve even in Studio,” the source said to TMZ. “Didn’t know. She’s clearly jealous. I didn’t even know she still sings.”Visit Huffington Post to continue reading…

Kate Gosselin’s eight children were allegedly ‘traumitised’ when their mother traded places with Kendra Wilkinson for an episode of Celebrity Wife Swap. The women switched lives for a week for the ABC show, with Kate looking after the former Playboy model’s three-year-old son, Hank Jr, and Kendra looking after the reality star’s eight-year-old sextuplets and 12-year-old twins.

Author Robert Hoffman claims Kate’s children were not communicated with during the transition, leaving them ‘scared and very confused’, according to RadarOnline. ABC announced on Wednesday 37-year-old Gosselin and Wilkinson, 27, would appear on the season premiere of Celebrity Wife Swap later this month.

It’s a High Street clothing line that has already amassed a plethora of celebrity fans in the UK. But on Wednesday night, the great and good of Tinseltown turned out to toast the opening of the new Topshop store in West Hollywood, California.

The 32-year-old covered up her growing baby bump in a black and nude lace dress with feather detail at the skirt. Not one to let pregnancy stand in the way of fashion, Kim combined the dress turned top with leather pants to hide her bump. She teamed the ensemble with black suede pumps and kept the look chick by wearing her hair sleek and loose. Kanye also donned leather pants to match his girlfriend for the evening.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian steps out in sheer shirt as she gives in to her frozen yogurt craving…

As cravings go it could be worse. Pregnant Kim Kardashian made a dash to the frozen yogurt store in Los Angeles on Thursday as she indulged her sweet tooth. While it is high in sugar the yogurt is at least low fat – and has the benefit of being packed with calcium.

Kim loaded hers up with fruit and muesli, making it the healthier option. While her boyfriend Kanye West waited in his Lamborghini car, Kim stepped inside to make her order. The 32-year-old star’s white shirt revealed her black bra underneath in the sunlight. Kim teamed her top with a pair of black leggings and tasseled boots while leaving her brunette locks out.

Kim Kardashian loses her cool with Kourtney as they search for a rental home: ‘She makes me feel like my opinion doesn’t matter!’

They usually get along great but fans of Kim and Kourtney Kardashian will see the sisters come to blows on an upcoming episode of Kourtney and Kim Take Miami.

On Sunday the duo will be seen locking horns after looking for a rental home in the Florida city together. Kim grows annoyed with her elder sister after Kourtney immediately dismisses a house that Kim was keen on. The 33-year-old mother-of-two quickly shoots down the idea of the place because it doesn’t seem to be ‘kid-friendly’. And naturally Kim was frustrated that she didn’t get to have a say in the decision.

‘Every time I move in with Kourtney it’s really frustrating,’ Kim, 32, admitted to the cameras. ‘She makes me feel like opinion doesn’t matter.’

Perhaps when the pregnant star welcomes her own child into the world, she will be more inclined to agree with Kourtney, who is mother to Mason, three, and Penelope, seven months. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Matthew McConaughey to design clothing line!

Matthew McConaughey is the finely honed A-lister who we are mostly accustomed to seeing dashing across the beach topless. But the Fools Gold actor will be putting his clothes on for a change, because he is designing his own menswear line.

The 43-year-old fitness fan’s collection, JKL, is a range of active-inspired sportswear named after his charity. The Just Keep Livin Foundation was created in 2008 after the death of his father. The collection is being produced by Grand National Apparel Inc., a Toronto-based private label manufacturer that works with brands including Perry Ellis and Savane.

His inspiration behind the clothing line came after he started producing charity branded garments and demand soared. He then decided to expand the brand into everything from T-shirts and hats to hoodies and flip-flops, designed with both a practical and stylish mantra in mind. Not only will the clothes be fashion-forward, they will include performance features such as oil and water-repellent pants, fast drying material and contain UV protection and rash guards.

To make matters worse the 19-year-old kept a blue beanie on throughout with his hood over the top of it. Luckily Dionne, who is the god daughter of the late Amy Winehouse, made sure she dressed to impress. The soul singer stood out in a silk paisley jumpsuit, cinched in at the waist with a red belt.

Jordin Sparks glams up at Clive Davis pre-Grammy party, a year on from Whitney Houston tragedy…

For Jordin Sparks, it must have been a bittersweet moment. All guests at Clive Davis’ annual pre-Grammy bash will have spared a thought for the late Whitney Houston, who died at a hotel room at the party venue – the Beverly Hilton – just hours before the festivities commenced last year.

But 22-year-old Sparks was close to the great diva, who died aged just 48, working with her on the film Sparkle. So in memory of Whitney, the star did just that as she appeared on the red carpet wearing an eye-catching teal gown and a broad smile.  At one point, she flashed her leg through a slit in her dress.

Keeping the upbeat tone going was Jennifer Hudson who famously performed on Grammy’s night last year in a hastily arranged tribute to Houston. The legend tragically passed away on February 11 2012 when she drowned in her hotel bath tub prior to the Davis party. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Barack Obama is sworn into office at the White House as proud Michelle and daughters look on…

President Barack Obama was sworn into his second term on Sunday at noon in front of only his wife and two daughters in a simple service.

His younger daughter Sasha said: ‘Good job, Daddy!’ after he correctly recited the oath of office.

‘I did it!’ he gleefully responded. Sure to keep him on his toes, he followed that up with a quick ‘You didn’t mess up!’

The swearing in ceremony took place on Sunday in keeping with the laws states in the Constitution which states that Presidents’ terms begin at noon on January 20. Normally the oath of office is given on the steps of the Capitol and is followed by his address to the nation, but because this year it happens to fall on a Sunday- and inaugurations are never held that day of the week- the oath of office was given quickly in the Blue Room of the White House instead.

When President Obama takes the oath again tomorrow in front of the packed Mall, it will be his fourth time doing so. Only the President’s immediate family and a few relatives were present, along with a crew of journalists to witness and televise the event. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

The Obamas were at the National Building Museum to celebrate those who supported the campaign and benefactors of the Presidential Inaugural Committee. Michelle looked glamorous in a sequined, black cocktail dress and statement earrings while Dr Biden wore a navy blue dress with a bold necklace. Obama thanked his many donors for their support at the event and said his second inauguration is a celebration of the country and its citizens, not the election results.

He reminded the crowd that ‘what we’re doing is celebrating each other and celebrating this incredible nation that we call home’. He encouraged the crowd to enjoy the inauguration and said he needs them to work as hard as they can on issues important to them.

President Barack Obama today savored the hundreds of thousands of supporters gathered to witness his second inauguration in Washington D.C., grinning as he waved enthusiastically to the crowds lining Pennsylvania Avenue. And in a moving display of his appreciation as he left his public swearing-in ceremony at the Capitol building early this afternoon, he was seen pausing a moment to look back towards the crowds and reflect on the vast sea of people before him.

‘I want to look out one more time because I’m not going to see this again,’ he said quietly to someone next to him as he took in the spectacular view.

The president appeared just as grateful for the support as he walked hand-in-hand with his wife as part of the Inauguration Parade, which featured floats from 60 organizations, as it snaked through the city’s streets. The parade came after Obama was sworn into office by Chief Justice John G. Roberts as the president’s proud wife Michelle and two daughters, 11-year-old Sasha and 14-year-old Malia, looked on.

After he took the oath with two bibles – one belonging to Abraham Lincoln, the other to Martin Luther King Jr. – Obama addressed the crowd of supporters in an impassioned speech and urged the country to work together.

‘Our individual freedoms requires collective action,’ he said. ‘We do not believe that in this country, freedom is reserved for the lucky, or happiness for the few… We must act together, as one nation and one people.’Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

It’s not exactly the Red Carpet ceremony, but the President’s second-term inauguration had an unmistakable Hollywood feel.

Beyonce and Jay-Z led the way as the stars turned out in force to support President Barack Obama at his inauguration on Monday. A loud cheer welcomed the 31-year-old singer and her rapper husband as they made a grand entrance at the ceremonial swearing-in at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC.

Kobe Bryant’s daughter Natalia celebrates 10th birthday…

NBA Laker’s MVP Kobe Bryant’s daughter Natalia celebrated her 10th birthday on Saturday, January 19, 2013. Her mother Vanessa Bryant stated she wanted to keep her daughter’s birthday private and would therefore not be posting any photographs.

The Bryants recently reconciled thirteen months after announcing their divorce, the NBA superstar Kobe Bryant and his wife Vanessa confirmed last month that they have chosen to get back together.

‘We are pleased to announce that we have reconciled. Our divorce action will be dismissed. We are looking forward to our future together,’ read the statement, which Vanessa posted on her Instagram account.

The couple have been starting off the new year on the right foot and have been shamelessly posting photographs – and kind words – of each other on their social media profiles. The Lakers guard only joined Twitter on Jan. 4, but he’s already managed to share an image of his wife sending him a big kiss. Last week the mother-of-two shared her love for her husband on her Instagram, which she launched in December. The couple have two daughters together.

Spotted: Tulisa as she tucks into some potato chips from a petrol station looking chavvier than ever!

She’s often seen with ridiculously large hoop hanging from her ears, but it looks like Tulisa likes the savory variety too. The singer was seen tucking into a pack of Hula Hoops after picking up some bottles of fizzy drink from a petrol station. Wearing a matching velour tracksuit, quilted leather jacket and a baseball hat, Tulisa was a far cry from the polished looking judge on the X Factor.

Now that the talent show is over, the judge has been reverting back to her pre-stylist, N-Dubz style, and the results have made her look chavvier than ever. And this latest outfit seems to be proving Louis Walsh right who branded her ‘a chav in a tracksuit.’ But luckily, the only crime Tulisa committed at the petrol station, was against fashion – unlike her cousin.

The last time Dappy -real name Costadinos Contostavlos – filled up on gas, he ended up facing a jail sentence after being found guilty of affray and one assault offence. The 25-year-old got involved in a brawl at a petrol station and now could end up with a maximum sentence of three years’ imprisonment for affray and six months for assault by beating – which included spitting at a man. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Khloe Kardashian: ‘I’m happy being heavier!’

She recently lashed out at U.S. tabloids for their false reports surrounding her personal life. But when it comes to the public scrutinizing her appearance, Khloe Kardashian has learned not to take notice. The 28-year-old says she no longer listens to what people have to say about her fluctuating weight because she can never please everyone.

The youngest Kardashian sister, spoke about her impressive weight loss of 30 pounds in 2009 thanks to taking Quick Trim pills. But the star revealed that even though she triumphed in some sense, she still found herself being criticized by others. Khloe – who is married to basketball player Lamar Odom – admitted that she now feels comfortable no matter what the scales say.

She told the February 2013 issue of America’s Glamour magazine: ‘A few years ago I lost 30 pounds, and people still wanted to criticize. And honestly, I’m happy with myself if I’m a little heavier.’ She continued: ‘I realized: Why am I trying to conform to someone else’s idea of beauty? I think I’m beautiful either way.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

But Alicia Keys was more concerned about the worth of her house this week as she chopped $2.95 million off the asking price. The singer has been trying to sell her New York City penthouse since listing it in March 2012, but was forced to lower the selling amount from $17.95 million to $15 million.

Alicia – who is married to music artist Swizz Beatz and has a two-year-old son Egypt with him – purchased Eddie’s Murphy’s sprawling luxury estate in October. They paid $12 million which is more than half the original asking price of $30 million for the 32-room Colonial mansion with recording studio.

So it’s no wonder they are trying to shift the apartment at 30 Crosby Street, which used to belong to singer-turned-actor, Lenny Kravitz. He paid $7.128 million for it in 2000 and relisted it after a renovation for $17 million in 2002.
Eight years later, he sold it to Keys for $12.75 million.  The light and airy pad featured several flights of stairs which eventually lead to a beautiful rooftop lounge. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Matthew McConaughey reveals he was ‘mad’ after hearing best friend Lance Armstrong’s doping confession…

McConuaghey, who is a Texas boy… just like Armstrong, admitted he was ‘p***** off’ after hearing his friend admit to using performance enhancing drugs, according to MTV .

‘My first reaction was I was p***** off,’ he said, after saying he wanted to be ‘delicate’ in discussing the matter. He added: ‘I was mad. I then got kind of sad for him. First off, I had a part of me that took it kind of personally, which I think a lot of people have.’

‘For him, it was impersonal because he was living a lie,’ McConaughey continued. ‘It was a whole unanimous facade he had to carry around.’

The pair have been friends for years and have enjoyed holidays together, trained together and even worked together… especially on Armstrong’s charity, Livestrong.

‘What I realized is that those of us that took that personally, like, “Oh, he lied to me,’ it’s not true,” McConaughey added ‘What I mean by this is, what was he supposed to do? Call me to the side and go, “Hey man, I did it but don’t tell anybody.” Then I would have really had a reason to be p***** off at him, going, “You want me to walk around holding this?’ “ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Multiracial actress Stacey Dash turned 46 on January 20, 2013. The actress who found fame on the big screen as ‘Dionne Davenport’ for the 1995 movie Clueless has remained youthful from the first time we watched her. The single mother to two children, son Austin and daughter Lola, made headlines during the general election campaign for her support of presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan.

Dressed in a tight black dress with lace detail on the arms, Leona showed off a more curvaceous figure than usual as she performed on the show called Wetten Dass. Her hips were further accentuated by the peplum detail on the skirt and the thin belt around her waist. The singer coordinated her necklace to the belt creating a stylish and symmetrical look. The 27-year-old appeared to go tight-less for the event giving viewers a glimpse of her shapely calves.

Her newly lightened hair had been given a slight curl and it fell loose down her shoulders. Leona added a splash of color to her outfit with bright lipstick as she sung her heart out. The star debuted her new look for the first time on Monday when she was spotted out and about in Los Angeles where she unfortunately managed to pick up a parking ticket. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

New Year, New Look: Singer Cassie debuts new hairstyle…

Multiracial RnB singer Cassie isn’t a stranger to new hairstyles and with her latest move, the singer is sure to keep folks talking about her for a while. The ‘Janet Jackson – Control’ inspired curls give the singer a more edgy style. The 26-year-old “King of Hearts” singer tweeted photographs of the new look simply captioning them “New Year.”

The singer who has been in a relationship with mogul/rapper Diddy (Sean Combs) was recently spotted with him house hunting in Beverly Hills. The jolly rapper and Cassie were spotted being given a tour of a $24.5 million Beverly Hills mansion. The historic house, which sits on two acres, was originally owned by Harry Cohn, the legendary founder of Columbia Pictures.

In more recent years it functioned as the home of Guess? founder Georges Marciano, and is being sold of as part of his bankruptcy proceedings.
It was put on the market for $24.5million, but film-maker Jerry has reportedly had a $23million offer accepted. And Diddy may decide he does not want to lose face by being outbid for the seven bedroom property.

Eva Mendes dresses in a floaty floral frock… but still manages to shows off her sexy curves!

At first glance, her floaty floral frock looked somewhat on the dowdy side. But on further inspection, Eva Mendes’s summery printed day dress expertly displayed the actress’s dangerous curves as she went shopping in Los Angeles on Saturday. The 38-year-old has slipped into the patchwork and printed long-sleeve attire to go shopping at the Locali Conscious Convenience store for organic food.

Eva, who has a penchant for vintage dressing, paired the ensemble with beige wedges and a brown and tan leather shoulder bag. The Cuban star wore her glossy brown locks in a gorgeous wavy style and shielded her eyes with charcoal-rimmed sunglasses. All eyes were on the actress as she left the Hollywood eatery early in the evening and headed home, no doubt to hunky partner Ryan Gosling.

The couple were recently apart over the New Year’s period because of work commitments. Ryan and Eva have been dating for over a year since starring in the gritty drama The Place Beyond The Pines together. The movie is a crash-course collision of nonstop action, drama and romance. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kris Jenner and Khloe Kardashian are mirror images of each other’s misery at LA Clippers game…

Mother and daughter looked so glum even though their team won. Front row seats at a basketball game are supposed to be fun and exciting, but for Kris Jenner and her famous offspring Khloe Kardashian the experience proved to be the opposite. The reality stars sat through the Los Angeles Clippers vs Washington Wizards game at Staples Centre wearing miserable expressions.

What’s more surprising is that Khloe’s husband plays on the Clippers team and they won that night, 94 to 87. Khloe, 28, appeared to spend much of the time scanning text messages on her cell phone, and even showed one to Kris with an annoyed look. Kris, 57, meanwhile, stared ahead with legs crossed and eyes narrowed. Perhaps the pair were in the middle of a fight with each other, or with someone else in the family.

While the cause of their moodiness can’t be pinpointed for sure, they certainly were in no mood for a spirited basketball game. Khloe looked dark and dejected in her black ensemble, hugging her coffee-colored handbag close to her chest. Kris fiddled with the huge rock on her left hand while holding an iced tea. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Britain’s Got Talent: Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon brave the elements in flesh exposing outfits…

They say celebrities live in a bubble and it seems Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon really do. The Britain’s Got Talent judges arrived at the London Palladium on Sunday wearing the most inappropriate outfits possible, proving they clearly hadn’t bothered to read the weather forecast.

As the snow fell Amanda looked visibly cold in her backless frock, while Alesha looked equally as chilly in a white suit with nothing beneath it. Goosebumps were practically visible on 41-year-old Amanda as she tried and failed to shelter herself from the elements with a British themed umbrella.

Her dress by Stella McCartney, which fell just below her knees, featured just one long sleeve while the other was left out in -2C cold. But it was when she turned around that the ludicrousness of her dress was revealed as it featured a cut out back with just a flimsy bit of flesh colored material. Her silly outfit didn’t stop there as her black shoes featured a precarious cigarette thin style heel, which was surely dangerous on the snow splattered red carpet. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian during filming of new reality show: ‘I was causing people to get into physical fights, crying, leaving!’

Her new reality show Kourtney & Kim Take Miami premieres this Sunday night. And it seems that fans of the famous Kardashian sisters are in for a dramatic treat. As Kim has revealed just how much drama she created during filming of the show, which took place last year.

During an interview with Us Weekly, the 32-year-old admitted that she got involved in everyone’s business, causing people to cry and even get into physical fights.

‘This season I really took a look back and I realized how much in everyone’s business I really was, and how nosy I was – to the point that I was causing people to get into…physical fights, crying, leaving, storming out…with the best intentions,’ she admitted. ‘Cause everyone was having issues and I was always trying to bring people together or just make it better.’

Kim added that fans won’t be seeing the moment she and boyfriend Kanye West found out that she was pregnant with their first child:

‘I found out when we were just in Miami and you don’t actually see that moment of when I found out,’ she told the magazine. ‘But it was just really exciting…it was…such a pleasant surprise.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian sings karaoke as she shows off in a revealing dress at Ivory Coast nightclub…

She’s dabbled in music before, even releasing a single Jam (Turn It Up) last year. And Kim Kardashian once again flexed her singing chops as she enjoyed a night of karaoke whilst attending a private party at Life Star Nightclub, in Abidjan, Ivory Coast on Saturday night. The 32-year-old reality star was seen belting out the tunes in a special VIP area of the club.

But all eyes were hardly on the pregnant star’s performance. The attention was rather diverted to Kim’s fashion choice on the night. The Keeping Up The Kardashians star, who is over three months pregnant, displayed her famous curves in a black peplum dress. The attire barely contained Kim’s cleavage with it’s low-cut and sheer neckline.

The attire barely contained Kim’s cleavage with it’s low-cut and sheer neckline.

She is famed for her particularly bounteous curves. So Modern Family favorite Sofia Vergara’s fans will no doubt be a little concerned to see the actress going for an early morning workout session in Los Angeles this weekend. But the canny actress and model was no doubt just working at keeping herself in peak condition when she went for a sweaty session in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

Make-up free, the Colombian star looked in a serious mood as she prepared to work on maintaining the figure that helped make her a multi-millionaire. The 40-year-old looked in fine form in a grey pullover, tight leggings and pink sneakers. Whatever Sofia’s regime is though, it seems to be working. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Matthew McConaughey: It’s a ‘circus’ with three kids!

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves have their hands full following the arrival of their new son – and third child – Livingston.

“Another plate at the table… actually he’s not eating at a plate, he’s on mama because he’s only 10 days old,” the 43-year-old actor told Access Hollywood at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards in New York City on Monday night when asked about his new baby.

“It’s getting to be more of circus that’s for sure!” he added. “The first time and second time were charming too. I promise you,” the actor, who was honored for his roles in “Bernie” and “Magic Mike” on Monday, told Access.

The proud dad beamed about his other two kids Levi, 4, and Vida, who turns 3 this month, when asked if his third child was a charm.

Heavily pregnant Amber Rose reads up on home births as she prepares to welcome her first child…

As her due date nears, it is only natural that Amber Rose is thinking more and more about the task ahead of her. And it seems the heavily pregnant first-time mother has some ambitious plans for the birth of her child. Amber was spotted clutching a booklet on home births on Sunday. While it was once the normal practice, giving birth at home fell out of favor in the U.S. in the 40s and today fewer than 1 in 100 women opt for it.

But it is clear that Amber Rose is at least looking into the idea.  While a rare choice in the U.S., giving birth at home remains an option in other developed nations, particularly Holland. Supporters claim it helps a mother bond with her child in a relaxed environment, in which she feels secure. However critics point out that a mother has far fewer pain relief options available, and must be transferred to a hospital if a complication arises, causing a delay in treatment.

Amber looked as if she was due any day as she stepped out on Sunday with her partner Wiz Khalifa in Hollywood. Wearing a black and white clinging maxi dress which highlighted her bump, the 29-year-old model was helped carefully into their car by Wiz. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Ellen Pompeo’s daughter Stella enjoys a day out at the mall with mom and dad…

Ellen Pompeo loves spoiling her little girl. The Grey’s Anatomy star was in a celebratory mood as she stepped out for a day at the mall with the center of her universe, daughter Stella, as well as her husband Chris Ivery. The happy trio were spotted at Westfield Shopping Centre on Saturday, and what was an unseasonably warm winter day for Los Angeles.

Ellen must have been feeling pretty good, now that her hit series has begun it’s ninth season, for she splurged on a pair of helium balloons with cartoon caricatures. The 43-year-old actress held onto both balloons, but three-year-old Stella helped by tugging on the strings. The family stopped by Giggles N’ Hugs, a popular children’s eatery and play area, where Stella got to romp around and act her age.

That’s where Ellen undoubtedly purchased the festive party decor, which also included a set of party plates and cups for later. Ellen looked fit and healthy, wearing light grey jeans, an animal print top and denim jacket, as well as comfy black high-top sneakers. Stella was a cheerful sight in her purple tee with gold design, jean skirt and purple sneakers. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Chelsee Healey hops on a train to London with a full face of make-up… but no lipstick!

She’s done the foundation, the eyebrows, the eye shadow, even the eyelashes. But one thing Chelsee Healey seemed to forget during her make-up routine was the addition of some lipstick. The usually glossy actress traveled lip-color free to London on Monday. Leaving from Manchester Piccadilly, Chelsee jumped on a train carrying a Louis Vuitton weekend bag.

Obviously dressed for the cold weather, the Waterloo Road actress wore a double layer of fur: the first on a knitted jumper, the second on her black coat. Her raven haired extensions were covered by a black Trilby hat that matched the perfectly lined color of her eyebrows.

Chelsee had obviously been looking forward to the trip down south all day, as she repeatedly tweeted about it on the social networking site. And she was in very good spirits due to the hangover-free weekend she’d just enjoyed.

She tweeted: ‘Finished filming for the day… London soon x. I really enjoy Mondays when I haven’t partied hard over the weekend! Feeling positive lets goooooo,’ Chelsee shared with her over 130,000 Twitter followers. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Sultry star Nicole Scherzinger leaves little to the imagination in sheer dress to promote new single…

She was often the picture of demure style on this year’s X Factor, in her long flowing gowns, but for her return to the studio Nicole Scherzinger slipped back into more typical pop diva wear. And what better way than to grab some attention for your new single than wearing a daring mesh dress, which left little to the imagination.

The fiery singer wore a very revealing tight black dress and a struck a variety of prowling poses as she shot her new video in west London. Eagle eyed X Factor fans will remember the star invited her boys – James Arthur and Jahmene Douglas – to the shoot of her video during last year’s series. Both boy’s jaw’s dropped as they watched the Hawaiian-born beauty work her magic on camera.

But these sultry shots show off a rather different side to the Don’t Hold Your Breath hitmaker and often hyperactive X Factor judge. In one sch-mazing shot Nicole poses provocatively, showing off her pert derriere, in the sheer dress, with just a short jacket protecting her modesty. In another the dazzling beauty, who is dating Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton, looks virtually naked in the revealing dress. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Britain’s Got Talent: Dixon is a cool in high-shine skirt and print top while Amanda Holden warms things up in orange!

They’ve been going for similar outfit options for the Britain’s Got Talent auditions so far.

But as Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden arrived for the London stint of the ITV show, they couldn’t have looked more different,
Alesha, 34, paid homage to the cold weather sweeping the nation in a ‘CHILL’ slogan top and high-shine metallic miniskirt, while Amanda opted for a warmer color palette in an orange and blue sleeveless dress.

Former Strictly Come Dancing judge Alesha teamed her outfit with a pair of white pointed court shoes, and finished off her look by wearing her hair in a high ponytail, complete with a roll quiff at the front. Adding a splash of colour, Alesha sported red lipstick, and kept the rest of her make-up simple. Amanda, meanwhile, paired her ladylike outfit with a pair of matching orange suede court shoes, and wore her newly-brunette bob teased into curls.

And while Amanda’s dress was intricately patterned from the front, it had a simple navy block color from the back. The 41-year-old mother-of-two finished off her outfit with a thin black belt which highlighted her slender figure and tiny waist. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Make-up free Eva Mendes takes the dogs for a late-night walk as Ryan Gosling pops into Seven Eleven…

Together they are one of Hollywood’s hottest power couples. But it isn’t all champagne and roses for Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes. Instead the couple were spotted fitting in some chores as they took their dogs for a late night walk around their Los Angeles neighborhood on Sunday night.

Eva had her hands crossed in front of her chest as she took her dog Hugo and Ryan’s dog George for a stroll along a narrow patch of grass. There was nothing very Hollywood about the scene, which saw a dressed down Eva walking along waiting for the dogs to finish their business. The make-up free star wore her hair pulled back into a simple ponytail, and was dressed in flowered pants and a wrap cardigan.

Meanwhile Ryan looked every bit his heartthrob self as he popped into the 7-Eleven to stock up on drinks. He picked up three Cokes, all full fat, for him, Eva, and his assistant, who was holding George’s lead. Eva, 38, and new beau Ryan, 32, will soon be steaming up the big screen in the upcoming crime drama The Place Beyond the Pines. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Spotted: Sandra Bullock toting her two-year-old son Louis to the barber…

He’s growing bigger by the day – but for now, Sandra Bullock’s toddler son Louis is still not too big to be carried. The Hope Floats star was spotted toting her little man on Monday as she took him to the barbers in Los Angeles. Sandra didn’t seem mind the extra 30 or so pounds as she hefted Louis to Rudy’s Barbershop.

The 48-year-old star is in great shape, but kept those firm, flexed muscles hidden beneath the black cardigan she was wearing. Sandra’s casual ensemble also included a white tank and baggy jeans cuffed at the shins, perhaps to better show off her fantastic studded black loafers. Louis, whom Sandra adopted two years ago this month, was similarly dressed in a white crew-necked T-shirt with black stripes and jeans.

The Oscar-winning star of The Blind Side wore her jet-black hair straight and long, so it was a good guess that Louis was the one getting the haircut that day. However, after walking through the shop once, Sandra was spotted leaving with Louis’ hair looking exactly the same it was. It’s not clear why Sandra left without getting a haircut, but perhaps there was a wait that she had no time for. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian rocks a side parting as she jets to France to join Kanye West at fashion week…

She’s only just had her new bangs cut for real. But it appears Kim Kardashian is already learning that while it might be fashionable, a fringe can be a pain to style. The reality star neatly hid her trendy new hair beneath a side parting as she stepped out for the Stephane Rolland Fashion Show in Paris on Tuesday.

Kim teamed the striking hair style with one of her favorite black and white outfits, complete with a handy fur, which the pregnant star clutched in front of her growing bump. She is no stranger to the designer, having worn a selection of his couture looks for a cover shoot for Hia, an Arabian women’s lifestyle magazine.

Kim tweeted a picture of the flowing gowns on the catwalk, writing: ‘What an amazing Stephane Rolland show!!!!’ Taking to her Twitter page she teased her fans: ‘Date night in Paris.’

After a money-spinning promotional trip to the Ivory Coast in Africa, Kim wasted no time jetting to France to join her fashion-loving boyfriend Kanye West, who is in town for the shows. While Kim was earning money on her African adventure Kanye had been spotted sitting forlorn as he watched shows alone from a prized front row spot. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Each audition is another opportunity to show off another show-stopping look and on Tuesday Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon made a bright effort to get noticed at the Britain’s Got Talent auditions.

Both female judges stepped out at the London Palladium wearing eye-catching ensembles and the pair clearly hadn’t called ahead to co-coordinated their outfits. Amanda, 41, wore a neon melon Italia power stretch dress that boasted a white reflective panel down the front, adding optical illusion detail. The garment by Milly retails at £440 and Amanda teamed the vibrant frock with a pair of black pointed heels.

Alesha had also selected a bold look for the day’s filming wearing a houndstooth patterned jumpsuit, a dusty pink jacket and a pair of pink and orange heels. The jumpsuit boasted a plunging neckline and cup detail and the singer teamed the garment with a chunky gold necklace. Amanda arrived in great spirits and seems to have put Sunday’s altercation with Simon Cowell firmly behind her. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Ellen Pompeo loves spoiling her little girl. The Grey’s Anatomy star was in a celebratory mood as she stepped out for a day at the mall with the center of her universe, daughter Stella, as well as her husband Chris Ivery. The happy trio were spotted at Westfield Shopping Center on Saturday, and what was an unseasonably warm winter day for Los Angeles.

Ellen must have been feeling pretty good, now that her hit series has begun it’s ninth season, for she splurged on a pair of helium balloons with cartoon caricatures. The 43-year-old actress held onto both balloons, but three-year-old Stella helped by tugging on the strings. The family stopped by Giggles N’ Hugs, a popular children’s eatery and play area, where Stella got to romp around and act her age.

That’s where Ellen undoubtedly purchased the festive party decor, which also included a set of party plates and cups for later. Ellen looked fit and healthy, wearing light grey jeans, an animal print top and denim jacket, as well as comfy black high-top sneakers. Stella was a cheerful sight in her purple tee with gold design, jean skirt and purple sneakers. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Oops! Nicole Scherzinger commits a fashion NO!

She normally gets it right when it comes to her sartorial choices but on Tuesday Nicole Scherzinger suffered a slip up in the style stakes. The singer cut a chic figure in a houndstooth jacket as she arrived at KISS FM radio station. But as she undid her coat to pose for pictures she revealed tight leggings with her top tucked in, a rare unflattering look for the Hawaiian born singer.

The singer teamed the outfit with a pair of Stella McCartney heels and a pair of round thick-rimmed sunglasses. And adding a pop of color to the monochrome attire Nicole had a coral red shade of lipstick across her pout.
Nicole is in town to promote her new single Boomerang which will premiere on air on Thursday ahead of its release in March.

The former Pussycat Doll showed off her shape in a series of raunchy pictures for the single, wearing a mesh dress and no underwear.

Halle Berry and daughter Nahla enjoy some girl time at Disneyland!

With all the drama surrounding her custody battle in recent months, a fun distraction is just what the doctor ordered. So Halle Berry took daughter Nahla to the happiest place on earth on Monday as they visited the Disneyland theme park. The pair were seen at the children’s venue in Anaheim, California, enjoying a day out with just the girls.

Leaving Halle’s fiancé Olivier Martinez as well as the four-year-old girl’s father Gabriel Aubrey out of the equation, they were instead accompanied by another mother and her child. Halle, 46, looked casual in a grey long-sleeve top and blue jeans with black buckled boots. The actress wrapped a black jumper around her waist and donned a stylish fedora hat on her head.

The Cloud Atlas star chatted with a friend as they pushed their strollers though the Bank Holiday crowds. They got a little help as they were accompanied by their own chirpy guide to the park. Nahla was clearly eager to stay close to her small pal, at one point reaching her hand out of the pushchair to hold on to the other little one. Halle will soon be busy promoting the upcoming comedy Movie 43. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Sportscaster Ahmad Rashad BARRED from his home – days after messy split from millionaire wife Sale Johnson!

Ahmad Rashad is no longer welcome at his home – after his soon to be ex-wife had him booted from their property that they once shared in a lavish Florida complex. Days after reports that his marriage to former model Sale Johnson was crumbling, she has taken drastic measures to keep Rashad away, including hiring guards.

Their home, which is reportedly worth about $5 million, is on the Bears Club complex in Jupiter, a collection of multimillion-dollar homes that NBA legend Michael Jordan also calls home. Golf superstar Tiger Woods, who has been through some marriage troubles of his own, also lives nearby.

A source told Gossip Extra that Rashad was recently able to get through the gate when he arrived at the home, but ‘guards escorted him out’ as he tried to get into the clubhouse. It’s the first salvo in what is believed to be an ugly divorce between the former football player and his wife.

A source told Gossip Extra: ‘Sale cut Ahmad off from all the clubs they’re members of, and had the fob that gets him through the guard gate at the Bears Club deactivated.’ 

The exclusive gated community was founded in 1999 by legendary golfer Jack Nicklaus and his wife Barbara, and is built around a golf course. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She may be three months pregnant with her first child, but it doesn’t look as though Kim Kardashian will be shopping for maternity wear anytime soon. Heading out on a romantic date night with rapper beau Kanye West, the 32-year-old socialite vamped it up in a pair of sexy thigh-high boots as the couple headed to Lasserre restaurant in Paris on Tuesday evening.

Teaming her daring footwear with a striking faux fur coat and a black minidress, the reality star proved she doesn’t plan to let her sassy style slip in the near future. Kim – who has been dating Kanye for around nine months – completed her look with a pair of fierce leather gloves and her wavy raven locks swept into a stylish side-parting.

Although she kept her pregnancy curves hidden under her all-black ensemble, the star was sporting the unmistakable radiant glow of an expectant mother-to-be. As usual, dapper Kanye had made sure to coordinate his outfit with his girlfriend’s look; teaming a pair of leather pants with a simple black blazer jacket, a cozy grey scarf and camel suede fringe-detail shoes. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Ice-T’s model wife is ready for a baby: ‘I want a little Coco!’

Coco Austin and Ice-T are planning to start a family. The stars of Ice Loves Coco, who have been married for over ten years, recently spoke to In Touch magazine about expanding from two to three. And the model-turned-burlesque dancer has already picked out a name if it’s a little girl: Chanel.

Tinging similarities to the luxury French fashion house founded by Coco Chanel, she told the tabloid: ‘I want a little girl! We already have the name — Chanel. I want a little doll of my own! I could teach her to walk in heels and do her hair,’ she said.

Coco, who is currently starring in Las Vegas revue Peepshow, said she is looking forward to sharing tips and tricks of the beauty business if she has a daughter. But she’s not necessarily ready if her imaginary child were to follow in her footsteps, adding that she’d ‘want her to be a lawyer’. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Rochelle Humes and bandmates ‘The Saturdays’ launch their reality show in the UK…

Her band The Saturdays are trying to crack America and while Rochelle Humes says she would love to enjoy similar success to Beyoncé, when it comes to listening to her own music in the bedroom department, that’s where the similarity ends.

The Saturday’s singer said ‘she would never listen’ to the band’s pop tracks to get in the mood, unlike the Beyoncé who admitted to GQ that she pops on her track 1+1 before making love to husband Jay-Z. However that may not be the case for the music made by Rochelle’s husband, Marvin Humes, and his boyband JLS.

Speaking to the MailOnline at the launch of their show at the Soho Hotel in London on Wednesday, the expectant mother said: ‘We definitely don’t listen to our music in bed. We’d more likely listen to a JLS track!’ 

The same can be said for Frankie Sandford who joked at the idea of putting on one of their 13 singles before getting it on with boyfriend Wayne Bridge: ‘Can you imagine listening to Higher before having sex?’Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Halle Berry dresses down as she takes her sick cat to the vet…

Her 2004 movie starring Sharon Stone and Benjamin Bratt may have flopped in comparison to Michelle Pfeiffer’s 1992 version. But when it comes to her off-screen antics Halle Berry is the ultimate Catwoman. The actress came to rescue on Wednesday when her pet got ill, racing to the veterinarian surgery in Culver City, California.

The 46-year-old didn’t even have time to attend to her appearance before taking her white and ginger-haired feline to see medical experts. She simply slipped on a cap over her cropped hair and donned jeans and T-shirt for the outing. The star teamed her clothing with buckled boots and the fresh-faced star wore aviator sunglasses over her eyes.

Halle seemed much happier as she left the building with the appropriate medicines than when she went inside after rushing from her car. The screen star forced a smile as an onlooker cooed over her cat and she balanced the carried and the prescription drugs. She can now rest easy knowing her four-year-old girl Nahla won’t have to come home from school and worry about the health of her beloved moggy. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian teams her fur coat with jogging bottoms… while Kanye hides behind a homemade ski mask!

It’s not like Kim Kardashian to be underdressed. So it comes as a surprise to see her heading out for dinner in Paris dressed in jogging bottoms and a simple vest top. Perhaps the reality star thought her extraordinarily expensive accessories spoke for themselves – she completed her look with a luxe fur coat and a designer bag.

While Kim was rocking an all-black look, her boyfriend Kanye West was feeling very colorful for once. The rapper hid behind a bright red ski mask as he attended the Maison Martin Margiela Haute-Couture show as part of Paris Fashion Week. The unusual accessory appeared homemade – with the slash apparently freshly cut through the wool.

But despite his unusual facial wear there was no mistaking Kanye in his crisp white suit and black overcoat. The couple have been busy enjoying themselves in Paris following Kim’s promotional trip to the Ivory Coast. On Tuesday night they were seen dining together at the upmarket Lasserre restaurant. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Nigel Barker and wife Cristen attend DuJour February issue launch!

He was publicly humiliated when he was fired by Tyra Banks from America’s Next Top Model last year. But it seems Nigel Barker has moved on from his disappointment, as he was spotted tenderly smooching his wife Cristen at a fashion event in New York on Wednesday.

The 40-year-old model turned photographer seemed to be having a great time as he enjoyed the glamorous atmosphere. The Londoner looked rather dapper in a black suit, while his spouse looked fragrant in a black and white shadow patterned dress.

And he was certainly in demand, as model Coco Rocha also grabbed him to make sure she had a snap taken with the fashion photographer at the DuJour February issue launch at posh restaurant The Darby. The 24-year-old Canadian beauty certainly stole plenty of glances in an attractive black pantsuit. Ironically, Nigel has revealed that becoming a member of the America’s Next Top Model’s judging panel cost him work.

He said: ‘When I was approached about Top Model, my career was on a real upward spiral. I had just done a bunch of great editorials and was getting calls from the likes of Jil Sander and Versace. It crossed my mind that if I joined the show, it could be considered selling out and for a while there, it was tough. A lot of people wouldn’t go near me.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Heidi Klum visits The Tonight Show with Jay Leno… then dances on Jay Leno’s desk!

Back in 2003, Heidi Klum flashed her $8 million Victoria’s Secret bra while on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

And the German supermodel’s appearance on the late-night talk show Wednesday did not disappoint, as the mother-of-four danced atop Jay’s desk while wearing an ultra-sheer LBD. As she shimmied to Rihanna’s Only Girl, both of the 39-year-old’s toned thighs were clearly visible to the viewers thanks to the gown’s see-through panels.

‘Always love chatting with my friend @jayleno on the #tonightshow,’ the Project Runway host tweeted to her 1.2 million followers.

Heidi had also danced on a table at Harvey Weinstein’s Golden Globes after-party where a bewildered-looking Nathan Fillion made sure the teetering star didn’t fall. The celebrity pals had evidently made a bet that if the Canadian hunk dropped his pants, she’d dance on the table.

Klum, who appeared on Leno alongside Seann William Scott, was on the show to promote the eleventh season of Project Runway, which premieres January 25. When she’s not dancing on tables, Heidi has her hands full with her eight-year-old daughter Leni and her three children with pop singer Seal – seven-year-old son Henry, six-year-old Johan, and three-year-old Lou. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Tom Cruise’s son Connor celebrates turning 18 with a DJ gig… as big sister Isabella cheers him on…

It was a special occasion on Wednesday, as Tom Cruise’s son Connor celebrated turning 18. And the DJ was in the right place for it, as he no doubt got to make the most of being of legal drinking age in London. Connor had a DJ gig and took to the decks at the trendy Boujis nightclub in South Kensington.

And the celebrity offspring had his biggest fan there to watch him – in the form of big sister Isabella, 20. Connor and Isabella, who have always had a close relationship, were adopted by Tom and second wife Nicole Kidman. Connor was dressed casually to celebrate his birthday and wore a red plaid shirt along with black pants and matching lace-up shoes.

Joined by a group of friends in the club they drank Grey Goose Vodka and had some crack baby shots, which went down well. He and Isabella both wrapped up warm to combat the cold weather, with Connor in a simple black coat and his sister sporting a khaki parka. Isabella also wore a simple black tank top, matching skinny jeans tucked into oxblood Doc Martens and a navy beanie hat to keep her head warm. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Personal trainer Sam, 27, told US Weekly: ‘Just from the experience of her being my caretaker post-accident, it was a dead giveaway that she’d be a fantastic mother. That was an early sign for me that our child is going to have the best mother ever.’

The selfless former contestant, who bonded with Sam as they both battled the bulge on the hit NBC show, had quite the task on her hands. Sam woke up in hospital with a punctured lung, severed kidney, shattered pelvis, fractured tibia, and traumatic brain injury after his accident in September 2011. But he said their good news has put all of their bad memories in the past.

He said: ‘Given everything we both have been through this past year, this [pregnancy] eclipsed everything. It put everything back into perspective. I felt like this was one of the many reasons God kept me alive during the five-story fall, so I could be the father of my wife’s baby.’

This doesn’t mean that he didn’t hit the key trends of the season: the new mid-calf-length skirt, for instance, and some of the most ravishing lace pieces we’ve seen, including examples in thick cotton, tape-work, and an imaginative re-embroidery of dark ribbons in an abstract scribble motif. Visit Vogue to view the full Spring collectiong…

Kim and Khloe Kardashian lash out at father’s widow over allegations of abuse: ‘She’s a piece of trash!’

Kim and Khloe Kardashian have blasted their late father’s widow for a tabloid story which accuses Kris Jenner of child abuse.

Ellen Kardashian – who married Robert just before he died in 2003 following a battle with cancer – claims to have found old diaries belonging to the late lawyer which slam his former wife Kris Jenner as a terrible mother to their kids Khloe, Kim, Kourtney and Rob.

In alleged journal, printed In Touch magazine, Robert supposedly claims the matriarch, 57, kicked, beat and threatened to kill Kim as their 12-year marriage collapsed. However, both Kim and Khloe took to Twitter on Thursday to slam and discredit Ellen.

Khloe tweeted: ‘How can such a piece of trash even mention my father’s name. You married him on his death bed when he was not even aware of his surroundings. You should be hiding in shame for all of the lies you sell to the tabloids.’

‘You have no right to even mention our names especially  my mothers! We don’t know you!!! How dare you spread such lies! You are a disgrace. 10 years after my fathers passing & now that she has filed for bankruptcy…NOW she sells FALSE stories. Hope that money buys you water in hell.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Mariah Carey wipes her tears after ‘spectacular’ American Idol audition: ‘He made me cry!’

Tantrums were replaced by tears on Thursday’s American Idol when an unemployed teenager brought the house down in Louisiana. After weeks of catfights between Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey, judges managed to put their feuding aside for a round of soulful auditions in Baton Rouge.

By far the strongest act of the night was 19-year-old Burnell Taylor, the last act to perform on the bayou. Coming from a musical family in New Orleans, Burnell described how he lost everything in Hurricane Katrina. Wearing a pair of turquoise shorts, Burnell sang I’m Here from The Color Purple – a film about the life of black females in the south during the 1930s.

‘It was an eye-opener and it made me appreciate the things that I do have,’ said the humble teenager.

The poignant performance was too much for mum-of-twins Mariah, who openly wept: ‘Burnell made me cry, Burnell’s tone is ridiculous,’ said the multi-platinum artist, as she wiped away her tears.‘I loved it… I don’t even want to…’ she stuttered. ‘I felt every word you sang. Just spectacular,’ added the 42-year-old Glitter performer. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Alicia Keys celebrates 32nd birthday at Madrid’s 40 Principles Awards in sheer plunging gown!

She looked like she’d stepped away from the microphone at a vintage Motown recording. Or perhaps just away from the window in an atmospheric film noir, whatever mystery Alicia Keys managed to convey in this stunning black dress… it was certainly beguiling.

The Girl on Fire, who turned 32 today Madrid’s 40 Principles Awards, was like a blast from the past in the stunning fitted gown that tapered into an interesting diaphanous bodice that looked a bit like a bra. Her hair was pure ’60s and set off nicely with a pair of chain-link earrings. And unlike Taylor Swift, who changed from her stunning Kaufman Franco gown into preppy brogues and sweater, Keys took her sultry look onto the stage.

The mother-of-one swapped her dress for pants but kept the theme of the look by wearing a sheer black top that showed her bra while she performed and accepted the rather impressive Best US Composer of the Last Decade award. Her hair was pure ’60s and set off nicely with a pair of chain-link earrings. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kris Humphries ‘turns down Kim Kardashian’s $10 million offer to settle their divorce?’

She previously claimed she felt ‘handcuffed’ to Kris Humphries because he refused to divorce her. But it seems Kim Kardashian’s cuffs are set to stay on a little longer, as the basketball player has reportedly turned down a $10million offer to settle their case.

According to RadarOnline.com, Kris, who is asking for an annulment on the basis of fraud, refused to accept the monetary payment in order to bring their lengthy divorce battle to an end.

A source close to proceedings told the website: ‘After Kim filed for divorce, she offered Kris a $10 million payoff, with the agreement that he would not continue to pursue an annulment to their marriage on the grounds of fraud. The source added: ‘He wants to be able to marry in a church again, with a clear conscience, when he finds someone special.’

However, Kris is said to have turned down the offer because it has ‘never been about money’.

‘Kris is deeply religious and he believes that the only way he can do that is if his marriage to Kim is annulled.’

A spokesperson for Kim has denied that she made the offer. And contrasting reports on the battle on TMZ.com suggest that instead of making any such offer, Kim is in fact refusing to pay Kris anything. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Nicole Kidman helps Matt Damon ‘kidnap’ Kimmel: ‘Jimmy f***ing sucks!’

After being ‘bumped’ from the line up 1,205 times over the last decade, Matt Damon got to wreak revenge on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday night.

‘Welcome to tonight’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Sucks,’ Damon announced, with a tied up Kimmel behind him. ‘Just for starters, let me ask you guys this: As an audience, is it weird to see a person with actual talent host this show?’ said Damon, who has been the butt of a long-standing joke made by Kimmel while he was trying to drum up buzz for his talk show.

‘I’ve been waiting for this moment for a long, long time,’ the actor continued. ‘This is like the time I lost my virginity, except this is going to last way longer than one second.’ 

Then usual band leader Cleto Escobedo III was swapped for Sheryl Crow. Heck, Damon even got Robin Williams to deftly handle the rest of the monologue for him. Then his BFF Ben Affleck broke ranks by holding up cue cards that pronounced Kimmel as funny, smart, good to his family and ‘an excellent lover.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian, Kourtney, fresh breast milk, psoriasis: ‘I don’t want to do this!’

When Kim Kardashian’s psoriasis failed to clear up after using numerous lotion and potions, the reality star turned to her sister Kourtney for help. And in a new outrageous episode of the pair’s reality show, Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, the duo reveal their home remedy for the 32-year-old’s skin condition.

At the beginning of the clip, the pair are seen in their Miami house, where Kim is musing over her psoriasis spots. In a promotional clip for this Sunday’s show, Kim is seen yelping as Kourtney squirts breast milk directly from her chest and onto her sister’s leg.

The reality star, who is currently pregnant with her first child with rapper Kanye West, is seen screeching as Kourtney leans over her to drip the milk on her psoriasis spots. Kim had used mother-of-two Kourtney’s breast milk before after reading online that it could help clear up the lesions on her legs.

However, she wasn’t quite expecting it to come this time, as she puts it: ‘fresh off the boob. These spots have been, like, really continuous… for like six months they haven’t gone away…so the fact that they’re white is a good sign,’ she says. ‘So I just want to keep on trying it.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Pregnant Kim Kardashian is in full plume as she shops for more jewels with Kanye West…

Since dating Kanye West she has stepped out in an array of unusual fashion choices. But Kim Kardashian’s latest outfit may well be her most outrageous yet. The pregnant reality star stepped out in a giant bird-inspired white feathered ball gown as she went shopping with her beau in Paris on Friday.

The dress, which would probably look more appropriate on the catwalk, hardly did the curvy star’s figure any favors with it’s billowing skirt. The attire also appeared to be a tad too tight around the 32-year-old’s bust, creating tiny folds in the fabric just underneath her cleavage. Kim paired the ball gown-style dress with a cream linen jacket which, despite being chilly in the French capital, she opted to drape over her shoulders.

The raven-haired star accessorized with a pair of black stilettos and wore her glossy locks out in her usual straight style. In comparison, Kanye meanwhile looked relatively dressed down in a pair of black pants, grey T-shirt and black jacket. The rapper wore a scarf around his neck and smart black shoes on his feet.

Robert Kardashian’s widow hits back at Kim and Khloe after they labelled her ‘trash’: ‘That is completely false and horrible’…

She has been labelled a ‘piece of trash’ by her stepdaughters. Now Ellen Kardashian has fired back at reality television personalities Kim and Khloe Kardashian, accusing them attacking her online with vicious lies.

‘To say that is completely false and horrible. I was with Robert for almost five years total. I dated him for three years, and he proposed to me in 2001,’ she said. ‘We married two months prior to his passing in 2003 and planned a wedding. We didn’t just run right out and get married.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

How four years in the White House have aged Obama!

Heavy and grey is the head that wears the crown – a lesson that President Obama and many of his predecessors have learned the hard way. When Mr Obama takes the oath of office next Monday marking the beginning of his second term, it will not be the same smooth-cheeked, black-haired man who first joined the exclusive club of leaders of the free world in 2008.

Comparing pictures of the 51-year-old commander-in-chief from four years to those taken more recently reveals a startling yet obvious truth: standing at the helm of the U.S. government takes a heavy physical toll. The man staring back from Obama’s official 2008 portrait has jet-black hair, smooth skin, bright eyes and only minor wrinkles.  Fast forward four years later, Mr Obama’s tresses are now unmistakably salt-and-pepper, his facial skin appears looser, more wrinkled and dotted with spots.

‘You look at the picture when they’re inaugurated and four years later, they’re visibly older,’ Connie Mariano, White House physician from 1992 to 2001, told The Washington Post. ‘It’s like they went in a time machine and fast-forwarded eight years in the span of four years.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Washington prepares for Obama’s inauguration with practice rehearsal!

Washington is at a standstill today as the final dress rehearsal is held for President Obama’s second inauguration tomorrow. Actors were drafted in to play the President, Vice President and their wives – and couldn’t help looking uncomfortable at the center of the gigantic military operation.

Thousands will gather in front of the Capitol on Monday, January 21, to see President Barack Obama take the oath of office for another four-year term, with his wife and two daughters at his side. His second inauguration promises the pageantry of the first, but on a smaller scale than 2009, when a record 1.8 million people filled the nation’s capital to witness Obama making history as America‘s first black president.

Obama has chosen to use two Bibles during his swearing-in – one owned by Martin Luther King Jr. and the other by Abraham Lincoln. He used the Lincoln Bible while taking the oath four years ago and is adding King’s Bible for the inaugural ceremony that will take place on January 21, the federal holiday honoring the civil rights leader.

At the 57th presidential inauguration a week from Monday, Chief Justice John Roberts will administer the oath of office to Obama while Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor will administer the oath to Vice President Joe Biden. It’s a day rich in history and tradition.

All of the singers featured on the playlist- from James Taylor and Brad Paisley to Smokey Robinson and Nick Cannon- will perform in one of the two parties being held for 35,000 revelers. The specifics about who will play when and at which of the parties has not been released, and there is still the mystery of who will sing the first couple’s first song.

White House responds after being scrutinized for lack of diversity and women in office: ‘We employ a diverse staff including women!’

President Obama may be regretting his newfound commitment to appoint women to the top ranks of his administration. Judging from a photo taken on Thursday at a White House meeting, Cecilia Muñoz, Director of the Domestic Policy Council, is holding the president’s feet to the fire as she leans in and gives the Commander-in-Chief an earful.

Ms Muñoz’s aggressive stature was featured in the White House Photo of the Day, a continuation of Mr Obama’s public relations campaign to show that women are well-represented in his inner circle. The photo in question showed an interaction on Thursday after the president met with policy advisers in the Roosevelt Room of the White House.

Ms Muñoz previously served as the Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs. Her appointment to head the domestic policy office was announced this January. The picture was widely circulated by the White House, with skeptics saying its a ploy from the administration to show that women do in fact have a place at the table when it comes to policy making.

‘The Administration does not support blowing up planets’: White House releases hilarious letter refusing petition to build a Death Star…

Bad news for geeks: the White House will not be building a Death Star. When the White House received a petition with more than 25,000 signatures they had to respond, and they did so in good humor citing the costs of the station, and the administration’s strict stance on not blowing up planets.

‘The Administration shares your desire for job creation and a strong national defense, but a Death Star isn’t on the horizon,’ wrote Paul Shawcross in the response, titled, ‘Secure resources and funding, and begin construction of a Death Star by 2016. This Isn’t the Petition Response You’re Looking For.’

The bullet points are these: ‘The construction of the Death Star has been estimated to cost more than $850,000,000,000,000,000. We’re working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it. ‘The Administration does not support blowing up planets.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

President Obama signs 23 executive orders on gun control!

The National Rifle Association tonight blasted the sweeping set of gun control proposals put forth by President Obama a few days ago, saying that the 23 executive orders that he signed will do nothing to combat violence in America.

‘Attacking firearms and ignoring children is not a solution to the crisis we face as a nation,’ the NRA said in a statement. ‘Only honest, law-abiding gun owners will be affected and our children will remain vulnerable to the inevitability of more tragedy.’

The orders that President Obama signed on Wednesday prompt the most wide-spread restrictions in the past two decades, with measures including universal background checks on all gun buyers, a renewed ban on ‘military-style’ assault weapons and a 10-round limit on ammunition magazines. Obama is calling for greater gun controls in reaction to the December 14 massacre of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Connecticut.

He made the remarks in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building to an audience that included parents of the Newtown victims as well as gun children who wrote him letters asking for greater gun controls in the aftermath of the shooting.

‘We can’t put this off any longer,’ Obama said. ‘When it comes to protecting the most vulnerable among us we must act now.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

White House slams gun lobby’s ‘repugnant and cowardly’ ad that calls Obama an ‘elitist hypocrite!’

The National Rifle Association has launched a preemptive attack against President Obama’s unveiling of his gun control plan Wednesday with a new ad that calls him an ‘elitist hypocrite.’ The 30-second ad, released on a website for the NRA’s new ‘Stand and Fight’ campaign, criticizes Obama for using Secret Service protection for his two daughters while he opposes the deployment of armed guards in schools.

‘Are the president’s kids more important than yours?’ the ad’s narrator asks as an image flashes on the screen of a child’s hand holding a lunchbox emblazoned with the presidential seal. ‘Then why is he skeptical about putting armed security in our schools, when his kids are protected by armed guards at their school?’

The ad cuts to a picture of Obama flanked by NBC’s David Gregory, California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Vice President Joe Biden.

The narrator continues: ‘Mr. Obama demands the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes, but he’s just another elitist hypocrite when it comes to a fair share of security. Protection for their kids – and gun-free zones for ours.‘ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Happy 49th birthday Michelle! A look at how Mrs Obama became a style icon with substance!

Michelle Obama, who turned 49 on Thursday, has proven her fashion savvy time and again since she was introduced as first lady in a yellow sheath and coat by Isabel Toledo on Inauguration Day 2009 – so much so that we don’t discuss it nearly as much as we used to.

Four years ago, there was a daily barrage in the media: Jason Wu gown! J. Crew gloves! Jimmy Choo shoes! It remained that way for months and even years. There was the Naeem Khan beaded strapless gown for the first state dinner in the Obama White House, the black racer-back dress by Michael Kors worn in her official portrait.

Her wardrobe for the Obamas’ state visit to England, including the white cross-neck halter gown by Tom Ford she wore to a black-tie event with Queen Elizabeth in London, and the fiery red Alexander McQueen she wore the for the state dinner the Obamas hosted for China generated news around the globe.

FLOTUS Michelle Obama gets bangs for her 49th birthday!

What did Michelle Obama, who turns 49 today, get for her birthday? Apparently, a whole new hairdo’ and Twitter account. As the First Lady’s office unveiled her new Twitter identity this afternoon, @FLOTUS, the second tweet revealed her new blunt bob, with heavy bangs.

Her new cut, sharper, more sophisticated, comes in the wake of supermodel Karlie Kloss’ new bob, after she cut off seven inches of hair late last year. Dressed in a burnt-red, elbow-sleeved patterned jersey dress, the 49-year-old showed off her new hairstyle, reminiscent of Katie Holmes’ chop in 2008, when she met with Inaugural citizen co-chair David Hall earlier today.

Mrs Obama has always had shoulder length hair, but since her entry into the White House in 2008, she has so far preferred to keep her look loose and flowing – or tied back. The New York Times coined this return to shorter hair, ‘The Karlie,’ last night. So far the response to Mrs Obama’s new do’ has been positive, with thousands of Twitter users agreeing in unison that they ‘love’ her new bangs. In an age of the overused term ‘style icon,’ Mrs Obama proves again she is one of the few modern women to deserve it. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

POTUS and FLOTUS Michelle volunteer on first day of inauguration weekend!

First Lady Michelle Obama took her new bangs for a second outing today as she and the President rolled up his sleeves to help paint bookshelves at a run-down Washington school to mark a National Day of Service.

Chelsea Clinton helped kick off President Obama’s three-day inauguration celebration, urging people, at a summit on the National Mall, to participate in volunteer projects, adding that there’s a chain of service that links generations of Americans from all across the country.

Mr and Mrs Obama, and their daughters Malia and Sasha, joined 500 volunteers to spruce up Burrville Elementary School while Vice President Joe Biden, his wife, Jill, and others members of his family also gave up their time to help others. The 70-year-old spent the morning filling care packages for U.S. troops serving overseas, veterans and first responders at a Unite America in Service event where he charmed other volunteers, one of whom got a kiss on the hand.

Speaking at the summit, Clinton said she was inspired by the volunteer work of her grandmother, Dorothy Rodham, who began as a child volunteer teaching migrant workers English and kept up her volunteer efforts for her entire life.

She said Americans should ask themselves: ‘What are you doing for others.’
‘In my family, the only wrong answer to that question is nothing,’ she told the crowd. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Rupert Murdoch on 400lb woman who fell through sidewalk in NYC: ‘How did she get to 400 lbs? Welfare, stamps, etc?’

Rupert Murdoch today sparked anger by mocking the 400lb woman who fell through the sidewalk in New York City. Ulanda Williams, 31, was hospitalized on Friday with a broken arm after falling through the concrete as she attempted to shelter from the rain outside a restaurant on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.

The media mogul took to his Twitter yesterday writing: ‘How did fat lady who fell thru street get to 400 lbs? Welfare, stamps, etc? Then leave us all with 20yrs immense health bills.’

But the statement angered some of his 394,446 followers on the social networking site.  ‘Only poor ppl are fat? Escape your bubble,’ wrote @axk.

@drgrist responded saying: ‘You probably should have kept that one between you and your therapist.’

‘It’s not the food stamps, it’s the limited purchase power they afford and the food they’re allowed to buy’, wrote @murtaug.

The billionaire later wrote: ‘Did not mean to be unsympathetic to 400 lb lady, but fact remains unhealthy eating by rich and poor driving up premiums for all.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Coco Austin highlights her hourglass curves at Martial Arts Awards in Las Vegas!

Coco Austin’s dress fit her like second skin. The Peepshow newcomer gave quite a performance when she stepped out to attend the 5th Annual Mixed Martial Arts Awards in Las Vegas on Friday night. How the buxom blonde managed to squeeze her ample figure into that skintight black number is anyone’s guess.

Coco paired the dress that looked painted on with ankle-strap stiletto heels, while accentuating her full pout with hot pink lipstick. Coco, the wife of rapper-turned-actor Ice-T, loved the attention her outfit got her. The 33-year-old Los Angeles native preened and posed in every direction to afford everyone a good view of her bare back and softly padded backside.

Coco began her stint in the Sin City adult revue show Peepshow in December, taking over from a heavily pregnant Holly Madison. Her debut performance, however, was missed by her 54-year-old husband, as revealed on a recent episode of their hit reality show Ice Loves Coco.

Spotted: Charlize Theron, Adam Sandler, Jack Nicholson and Robin Thicke catch a Lakers game…

Cheer up guys, it’s only a game. Charlize Theron, Adam Sandler, Jack Nicholson and singer Robin Thicke were quite the unhappy bunch sitting court side as the Lakers cruised toward another loss at Staples Center in Los Angeles on Friday night.

Dressed in a red hoodie and corduroys, Adam sat aside the Lakers die hard, who’s sat through enough losses to know how to keep his displeasure to himself. The Just Go With It funnyman, on the other hand, looked like he was taking a pass as new coach Mike D’Antoni’s job, waving and shouting at the players as they trounced back and forth on the floor.

And Charlize looked completely miserable herself, slouching back in her seat as she perhaps reconsidered spending her night cheering on the ever failing team. With her mother Gerda by her side, Charlize kept casual in a denim jacket and black jeans with nude booties. Also catching the game was singer Robin Thicke and his adorable 2-year old son Julian. As for the actual game, the Lakers were flattened by the Oklahoma City Thunder, defeated by a double-digit margin of 116-101.

Busy Heidi Klum is low-key on coffee run with boyfriend Martin Kristen and her kids…

It may be awards season but some celebrities are still making time for downtime with the family. Heidi Klum proved just that as she stepped out with her brood on Saturday in Brentwood, California. The 39-year-old looked rather dressed down compared to her recent appearance on the red carpet just three days before.

She donned a loose and long black dress with zigzag cut over a pair of jeans and boots, covering up even more with an oversize zip up coat. She wore aviator sunglasses to shield her eyes from the sun and kept her head warm in a diamante encrusted hat.

Letting her unstyled blonde locks hang loosely, she was out and about with her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kristen plus her children, Lou, Leni, and Johan. The clan made a stop for morning drinks from Starbucks and Heidi stayed close to Lou as they walked back to the car while Martin led the way carrying their purchases from the café.

Heidi’s look is a far cry from her glamorous gown at the People’s Choice Awards on Wednesday. The supermodel parent dressed her little girl in a cozy pink printed ensemble with UGG boots and woolly hat with furry bobble. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Bill Bradley to give away George Lucas bride Mellody Hobson at couple’s wedding…

When filmmaker legend George Lucas marries fiance Mellody Hobson, the bride will be given away by someone very unexpected: former New Jersey senator and basketball hall of famer Bill Bradley. The Chicago Tribune reported that Hobson, a 43-year-old Chicago businesswoman, announced the news while addressing a crowd at the headquarters of Groupon.

‘Bill is walking me down the aisle,’ the president of Chicago-based investment management firm, Ariel Investments LLC, said Thursday.

After Hobson’s Star Wars creator partner, 68, popped the question recently, Hobson said she knew immediately she wanted to get Bradley involved.

‘I told him, “Hey! You’ve got a job to do!”‘ she said. ‘He started crying.’ 

Hobson said she first met the Olympian, former senator, and former Democratic presidential candidate at the age of 17 when Bradley helped convince the burgeoning businesswoman to attend Princeton, his own alma mater, over Harvard. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian covers up billowy shirt and baggy pants as she jets into Los Angeles…

It seems Kim Kardashian is trading her sexy outfits baggier clothes as her baby bump begins to take form. The self-styled fashionista is usually happy to flaunt her curves in the finest clothes that money can buy, but that wasn’t the case when she arrived at Los Angeles International Airport on Saturday.

Kim, who is believed to be about three months pregnant with boyfriend Kanye West’s child, was virtually make-up free as she strolled wordlessly through the airport in a grey coat and a loose blue pin-striped shirt.

The girl who seems to have everything matched her plain Jane ensemble with simple black pants, brightened by a pair of black peep-toe heels. She wore her long dark hair piled in a simple bun on top of her head. Behind the tinted sunglasses that she wore, Kim looked straight ahead as passers by stopped to stare without even a smile. Perhaps the 32-year-old reality star’s off-color appearance meant that she was missing Kanye already, or she may have simply been making sure she and her bump were comfortable.

Diddy and girlfriend Cassie go house hunting and engage in a bidding battle with Jerry Bruckheimer for historic $24.5 million Beverly Hills mansion…

It sounds like the script for a Hollywood movie. So no doubt Jerry Bruckheimer will give a wry smile when he finds out he may have to outbid hip hop mogul Diddy if he wants to buy his dream house. The jolly rapper was spotted being given a tour of the $24.5 million Beverly Hills mansion with his rumored girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

The historic house, which sits on two acres, was originally owned by Harry Cohn, the legendary founder of Columbia Pictures. In more recent years it functioned as the home of Guess? founder Georges Marciano, and is being sold of as part of his bankruptcy proceedings.

It was put on the market for $24.5 million, but film-maker Jerry has reportedly had a $23 million offer accepted. And Diddy may decide he does not want to lose face by being outbid for the seven bedroom property. He certainly has the resources to make a successful bid, as the artist formerly known as Puff Daddy has been estimated to have a new worth of $550 million by Forbes.

Halle Berry puts on a racy display in a revealing dress at BET Honors bash!

It may still be the winter season but apparently that hasn’t put the stars off revealing plenty of flesh on the red carpet. Halle Berry and Gabrielle Union both stunned at the BET Honors event, many thanks to their flesh-baring outfits. Halle, 46, allowed her décolletage to be envied as she stepped out in a gown which provided more than enough cleavage.

She ignored any fashion rules and coordinated hues of the item with the ground she was standing on in metallic peep toe heels. Eager to show off her footwear and equally eye-catching pin, Halle’s frock featured a high split which her leg popped through.

Her spiked up blonde-tipped hair added to the actress’ fiery look as she appeared at the bash sponsored by Pantene at Warner Theater in Washington DC. The Award For Service recipient wasn’t the only attendee to show a lot of skin.

Bring It On star Gabrielle Union went beyond the average keyhole size cut-out that some stylish ladies like to wear and donned an olive green number with a gaping hole in the chest area. The belted floor-length dress was teamed with a two chunky gold bracelets on her wrist and Gabrielle left her shiny black locks down for the occasion.

Heidi Klum gets her kicks on the soccer field as she challenges her sons to a game…

Heidi Klum could probably beat her boys at their own game. The supermodel proved her prowess on the soccer field when she took her boys for some ball practice on Saturday, and she didn’t even have to suit up. Heidi kicked the soccer ball and threw the football like a pro, even while wearing a bulky black overcoat, jeans, woolly scarf and tall boots.

She certainly inspired her sons Henry and Johan to give it their all on the field in the posh Brentwood area of Los Angeles. Henry was wearing his blue soccer outfit and the doting mother even got down on her knee to tie the laces on his sneakers, even though the seven-year-old must know how to do that himself by now.

Johan was decked out in red shorts, white T-shirt and a red and navy jacket, and was having a great time kicking the ball around while his proud mum watched. Heidi, no doubt, was knowledgeable enough about the game to give Johan some pointers too. The happy display showed that it may be awards season but some celebrities are still making time for downtime with the family.

And there were certainly a lot of Hollywood starlets competing for attention at The Art of Elysium’s 6th Annual Heaven Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday night, with Mena Suvari, Camilla Belle and Ashley Madekwe leading the way.

It appears the trio had the same idea when it came to how to steal the spotlight, with all three actresses opting for stunning floor-sweeping gowns, complete with lengthy trains, as they posed up for photographers at the event.

American Beauty star Mena opted for a black strapless design by former Project Runway alum Christian Siriano, showcasing her stunning figure in the outfit, which featured sheer fabric to give a hint of skin beneath. John Legend and his beautiful fiance Chrissy Teigen coordinated their outfits, while the model glowed.

But going for a more obvious look, with incredible results, was Revenge star Ashley, who wowed in a jaw-dropping gold beaded outfit, with a large cut-out on the back. Ashley teamed the dress with matching metallic earrings and a clutch bag, wearing her hair up in a chic chignon.

The picture of motherhood! Charlize Theron keeps her baby boy wrapped up in her arms…

Facing motherhood alone is a daunting task for any woman, but Charlize Theron has clearly settled into life as a single parent well, and obviously prefers to keep her baby as close to her as possible. Cradling baby Jackson in her arms, the actress looked maternal whilst her outfit and hairdo was far more androgynous.

Still, she was the perfect picture of a modern mother, doing it alone, and doing it well. On the same day, Charlize met up with Ted star Set MacFarlane at Beverly Hills hotel. The actor – who created Family Guy – will be hosting this year’s Academy Awards ceremony in February.

An Oscar winner herself – Charlize could give Seth a little advice on how to handle the stage, but as a naturally funny guy with critically acclaimed TV shows under his belt, one would assume he’ll know how to work a crowd, especially if it’s made up of celebrities. The Prometheus star announced her adoption news in March and took home Jackson soon after. Her decision to adopt no doubt shocked fans, but apparently Charlize has known she would go down this path to motherhood since she was a little girl. Opening up, the 37-year old has spoken about a letter her mother had found which she had written aged eight.

The Saturdays’ Rochelle Wiseman tries to hide her growing baby bump with a billowing scarf…

She may be using the old pros trick of using a scarf to mask her growing bump, but there’s no denying that Rochelle Wiseman is a glowing mother-to-be. The 23-year-old Saturdays star looked chic and stylish as she arrived with her fellow bandmates to attend a business meeting in LA.

Rochelle, Una Healy, Mollie King, Vanessa White and Frankie Sandford are currently in the US to promote their new E! TV program, Chasing the Saturdays. The show will follow the girls as they travel round and try to break the tough American market in a similar vein to fellow British pop acts One Direction and The Wanted.

Rochelle has just returned from a belated honeymoon to the Maldives with husband Marvin Humes from JLS. The couple who wed in July last year announced that they were expecting their first baby, due in the summer, in November. She took to Twitter to talk about her struggle with her body clock after landing at LAX airport on Sunday.

She wrote: “I think I may have created my own time zone!! My body has no clue what’s going on lol.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Madonna drops price of her Beverly Hills mansion for sale by a whopping $5.5 million!

After quietly listing her very material mansion for $28 million in March, but failing to get any bites, singer Madonna has dropped the price of the home to $22.5 million.

In another move to show that she’s serious about getting rid of the nine-bedroom property, The Borderline singer is now allowing the home to be listed onto the very public Multiple Listing Service, where both the haves and the have-nots can openly gawk at stunning photos of the property.

The French Country-style mansion was previously a pocket listing, meaning the real estate agent was not allowed to advertise to the general public that it was for sale. During the 10 years she has owned it, the 54-year-old pop star rebuilt and expanded the estate. It was completed in 2010. The gabled-roofed estate sits behind gates on 1.17 acres of landscaped grounds.

The compound, accessed by a 500-foot tree-lined driveway, includes the nine-bedroom main house, offices on site for assistants and live in staff, plus two guesthouses. Outside there is a resort-size swimming pool and a tennis court. A famous health and exercise fan, there is a two-story dining room and a gym. There’s also a theater/screening room, an art studio, a bar and 17,000 square feet of living space.

Meanwhile, Madonna also wants to sell her big New York City house….Her Manhattan abode hit the market in November at a cool price tag of $23.5 million. Madonna, who still has many properties around the world, including a home in London, has not said why she wants to dump two of the largest jewels in her real estate portfolio.

Chelsee Healey takes a fashion gamble in jumpsuit… and it paid off!

Chelsee Healey is more often criticized than congratulated for her outfit choices, but her fashion gamble paid off on Saturday. Inspired by the disco glam of the seventies, the Waterloo Road actress was able to show off her curves without showing too much skin. Because of the halterneck design, only her back could be seen, creating a more demure image than usual.

Chelsee cinched in her tiny waist with a black and gold belt, and matched the metallic one piece with further gold accessories.  A giant envelope clutch bag, watch, earrings, chain necklace and gold painted nails seemed a little much but, the former Strictly Come Dancing star does love to sparkle. She stood out from her friends who were wearing a mix of pleather leggings, black top and towering heels.

The extra effort in the wardrobe department may be down to Chelsee vowing to get fit for 2013. The 24-year old tweeted: ‘This week I’m going hard in the gym healthy eating, and detox!!! Can’t wait #stamina #healthyliving #feelgood’

So if this is her last night to enjoy a tipple or two, at least she did it in style at Manchester’s Grosvenor Casino. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Beautiful: Kim Kardashian slinks into tight pink pencil skirt and matching blouse!

It’s been chilly in Southern California so when Kim Kardashian ventured out for a walk this morning, she threw a woolen peacoat over her shoulders. Though the large, wide-shouldered coat dwarfed the reality star, her curves, especially her growing belly, literally popped out of the picture.

The 32-year-old reality star was a vision in a very light pink, long-sleeved blouse and matching pencil skirt as she visited her family in Calabasas. But the dress barely contained her growing pregnancy curves. Even the wide-shouldered coat, seemingly borrowed from fiance Kayne West, barely fit her middle.

Always the fashion plate, Kim’s light lipstick and the blush on her cheeks matched the color of her dress. Her long locks flowed down her shoulders and back. Accessories were kept to a minimum, with Kim not even bothering with a handbag. She wore a pair of black, low-heeled classic pumps.

Lookbook: Thom Brown pre-Fall 2013…

Thom Brown’s ageless line is consistent with its expert tailoring and neutral color palette but truly plays to the woman of any age — with full-skirted party dresses, classic coats, schoolboy-inspired blazers, and ties that are paired with both miniskirts and shirtdresses. This tomboy-tinged collection may be classic but it’s anything but dull.

Lenny Kravitz and Charlotte Free model ‘Eleven  Paris’ new collection…

He’s the rock star known for his cool style and attitude so when French fashion brand Eleven Paris hired Lenny Kravitz to model their Spring/Summer collection, they needed a female star to match.

And they found an American Woman who can hold her own in the style stakes besides Kravitz in the form of Charlotte Free, who took the fashion world by storm last year with her quirky pink hair and striking look.

The face of Maybelline, she has graced Vogue covers and designer catwalks and now fronts Eleven Paris’ ten year anniversary campaign with Kravitz. The pair were flown to Miami for the shoot and model the brand’s spring/summer collection that focuses on off-white shades mixed with citrus hues in the male and female ranges.

Glittery, embroidered embellishment add interesting detail to items in the collection ‘pour femme’. The brand said they were looking to create a modern and cosmopolitan style with their latest collection. It’s not the first time a Kravitz has worked with Eleven Paris as Lenny’s daughter, Zoe featured in their spring/summer campaign in 2011.

Mavericks’ Dirk Nowitzki has stand-off with security guard during video review!

Dirk Nowitzki has been down in the dumps a bit lately, wondering aloud whether the Mavericks will be players in free agency, prompting owner Mark Cuban to publicly assure his franchise forward that he wouldn’t be traded.

So it’s good to see Nowitzki back to his jovial self in this hilarious video from Dallas’ 117-112 overtime victory over Sacramento on Thursday. With the Mavericks leading 100-98 with less than a minute remaining in regulation, the three referees gathered around courtside video monitors to conduct an official review.

Nowitzki wanted to poke his head into the group, perhaps to get a look at how the replay would fall or to conduct a little gamesmanship given the tight time/score situation. Unfortunately for Dirk Nowitzki, who wed his beautiful biracial Kenyan bride Jessica Olsson in July of last year, two Sleep Train Arena security guards were assigned to create a buffer between the officials and the players, and one of the security guards got the unenviable task of staying between Nowitzki and the referees as he non-violently tried to wind his way towards the officials.

Lookbook: Tibi pre-Fall 2013…

With fresh iterations on old ’80s favorites, Tibi pre-fall ’13 can be seen as an exercise in making new fashion friends while still keeping up with the old crew. There are wider-than-your-average shoulders, color-blocked dresses, and decidedly geometric angles, but the collection also boasts painted skyline prints, (actually) flattering bermuda shorts, and leather skirts that can be casual, too.

In short: Tibi’s wear-it-everywhere ease mixed with an eye on streamlined shapes and uptown sophistication is back at it again —  except this time dancing to Robyn. Dance-floor high fives all around. Visit Refinery29 to view the full 2013 collection…

Halle Berry relaxes in baggy jumper after Golden Globes awards…

The Cloud Atlas actress slipped on a pair of sky-high nude Louboutin pumps and some Madstone earrings and metal bangles to complete her pink and taupe diaphanous look. So it was no doubt a relief for the mother-of-one to slip into a baggy – almost poncho style – jumper to drop her four-year-old Nahla off at school.

But she still looked chic in the glamorous wool item; which she paired with Maharishi pants and smart black boots. A final decision is imminent on her bitter custody battle with Gabriel Aubry, Nahla’s father. The 46-year-old and French actor Olivier are trying to move to Paris with Nahla. However model Gabriel, 37, is dead against it and it is just a matter of days before they will find out what decision a judge came to regarding Halle’s emigration plans.

She may have missed out on scooping a Golden Globe on Sunday but the evening did mark an exciting moment for Sofia Vergara. The Modern Family star’s latest Diet Pepsi commercial made its television debut during the airing of the ceremony. Sofia looks stunning as usual in the clip, which sees her showcase her famous curves in figure-hugging dress in a bold cobalt blue hue.

The premise behind the advert is that Sofia crashes a wedding and while attempting to get a can of Diet Pepsi, is called upon to make a toast.

‘I am so honored to say a few words about the lovely can,’ the 40-year-old begins to a bewildered crowd. ‘I mean the couple.’
She attempts to make amends but once again only has the fizzy drink in mind, as she tells the newlyweds: ‘You look so delicious.’

Realising her mistake, Sofia adds: ‘In love,’ before finally getting her hands on the soda and raising her can in toast.

She wishes the couple ‘many more years’ and then scampers off while they try to establish if either of them know her. It is Sofia’s third Pepsi commercial – she starred in her first one at the tender age of 17, which was in fact her first appearance as a performer.

Kim Kardashian on pregnancy: ‘It’s a miracle I even got pregnant!’

She’s looking forward to the birth of her first child. But Kim Kardashian has revealed that her unplanned pregnancy was ‘a miracle’ – as she has secretly battled fertility issues.

‘It’s kind of a miracle that I even got pregnant,’ she told Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda on the Today show on Tuesday.

She had earlier explained on the Today Show: ‘Khloe has been very open about her fertility issues and I think I was always really kind of quiet about mine, and I have similar issues.’

Kim’s younger sister Khloe has openly talked about her distress following her failure to conceive during three years of marriage, with initial tests revealing she was not ovulating. Meanwhile Kim has been dating her boyfriend Kanye West for nine months and is expecting their baby in July.

Kim explained of her pregnancy: ‘It was a pleasant surprise when so many doctors were telling me one thing and then the opposite happens.’

The 32-year-old said she found it hard to believe she was really going to be a mother:  ‘I think until I really start seeing, like, a belly, it won’t really sink in. It’s just like a weird realization until you really start seeing the physical changes, um, and every day’s different.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

South African Albino model Refilwe Modiselle covers Grazia magazine, says: ‘I feel beautiful!’

South African-born albino Refilwe Modiselle has defied the odds in becoming one of the most sought after fresh faces on the model circuit today. A striking natural beauty, her white blonde hair, pale skin and ice blue eyes mean she is instantly the focus of attention – a trait designers are using to their advantage.

Yet the 27-year-old says it is only recently she has begun to feel comfortable in her own skin: ‘I never thought I’d be a model,’ she said in an interview with Grazia magazine. ‘I finally feel beautiful.’

She previously has said that she ‘lives in the skin of a white person’ and spoken out about the hardship and stigma endured growing up as an albino in South Africa.

‘When I used to walk down the street kids would always say mean things. I don’t care,’she said. ‘People thought my mother was involved with a white person. I remember agents not being too keen to sign me either.’ 

Albinism is a congenital condition in which the person has no pigment in their skin, hair and eyes, which causes them to have very pale skin which provides very little protection against sunlight due to an absence of melanin. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kelly Ripa is featured in February issue of Elle Magazine, says: ‘I have Botox every seven months!’

Her face is projected on 6 million viewers’ HD-TV screens practically every morning. And Live! with Kelly and Michael host Kelly Ripa has admitted she receives Botox injections every seven months in order to keep her pretty face looking its best.

‘It’s the Botox. Every seven months or so my eyelid skin rests on my eyelashes,’ the 42-year-old star revealed in the February issue of Elle Magazine. ‘So I feel like [Botox] makes my makeup artist’s life easier, and it makes my eyes look a little more open on TV, which is where I happen to work right now.’

The three-time Emmy winner has even had injections in her armpits to prevent sweating, and she maintains her super-slim frame thanks to frequent SoulCycle spin classes. Back when she starred on the soap All My Children, Kelly transformed lemons to lemonade whenever she received vicious, fat-shaming hate mail from fans.

Kim Kardashian covers up her bump in sexy black mac while wearing over-the-knee boots…

She wouldn’t be a Kardashian if she opted to wear the usual image of dressed down maternity wear. And it seems pregnant reality star Kim Kardashian has no plans to tone down her sexy style just yet. The 32-year-old is still stepping out in an array of figure hugging dresses before her bump gets too big. And on Tuesday she vamped up her look with some over-the-knee boots.

She arrived back at her hotel in New York after a busy day with her sister Kourtney sporting the stand out footwear. Keeping up with her fashionable, smart style she completed the ensemble with a black mac over skintight jeans. Carrying her black leather bag, Kim smoldered as she wore her dark locks down and poker straight with lashings of red lipstick on her famous pout.

Looking coiffed to perfection, she finally called it a night after stepping out of her yellow taxi and headed inside her hotel. Earlier in the day Kim had made time to celebrate her friend Rachel Roy’s birthday by heading out for a spot of lunch in the Big Apple.

Protective father-to-be Marvin Humes tags along with wife Rochelle and The Saturdays as they jet to New York…

She’s having to juggle her first pregnancy and her whirlwind US takeover. So it’s no surprise that Rochelle Humes wanted husband Marvin by her side when she jetted with The Saturdays to New York on Tuesday as they continued their promotional tour.

Even though they’ve just been on their honeymoon, it seems that the JLS star doesn’t want to let his wife out of his sight as they walked arm-in-arm through JKF airport with the other girls in tow. They might have appeared on the Jay Leno Show in Los Angeles the night before, but the band’s hectic schedule, promoting new E! show Chasing The Saturdays, means that they’ve got no time to rest as they jetted straight to New York to appear on The Today Show.

Looking fresh-faced and energised despite her jet-set lifestyle, Rochelle showed off a hint of her growing baby bump in a tight, grey jumper. At first quite happy for her protruding tummy to be seen, the singer later cover it up with a large fur coast as she grabbed her husband’s hand. The popstar couple were joined by Rochelle’s bandmates, who also seemed in good spirits as they walked through the airport, clearly excited about how well the promo tour is going.

Kim Kardashian covers luxury Arabian women’s magazine ‘Hia’…

It’s certainly not a look we’ve seen on Kim Kardashian before. The reality star swapped her usual fashion for a series of veils as she took part in a cover shoot for Arabian luxury women’s magazine, Hia. But while she may have been veiled, Kim was certainly not demure. In a video of the shoot she unwraps her conservative outer gear to reveal a daring plunging gown which shows off her breasts.

In other shots Kim looks like a regal Arabian princess in a jeweled goddess headband. The cover itself was more suitable for the middle east market, with Kim posing in a white Stéphane Rolland dress, her hair covered by a matching long white veil.

‘I’m excited to share my cover of Hia Magazine!’ Kim tweeted.

‘Hia is the leading luxury lifestyle magazine for Arab woman and I’m honored to be on the cover.  This shoot was so different from any I have done before and I’m so pleased with how the cover turned out.

As the Huffington Post reports, the couple are launching a new charity initiative, The Kobe and Vanessa Bryant Family Foundation, to eliminate youth homelessness in Los Angeles. The Lakers player spoke at the event, admitting statistics about youth homelessness ‘hit home’ as a father-of-two. Learning between 7,000 and 10,000 members of the local homeless population are under 24, he said ‘shocked the hell out of me’.

Naughty: Louis Smith exposes more than expected in racy snap!

He’s known as an Olympic hero and Strictly Come Dancing champion, but it seems that Louis Smith might have a more racy side to him. Although he’s already stripped down for a series of photo shoots, a picture taken before he became famous has emerged showing the 23-year-old in a decidedly more provocative pose.

The wholesome star clearly knows how to let his hair down, as he was pictured stripping off to a pair of Superman underpants during a night out with friends. The shot shows him letting his hair down in Peterborough nightclub Edwards and larking around with a group of friends. After what looks like a fun night out, Louis drops his pants to reveal a small pair of Superman Y-fronts, leaving very little to the imagination.

He then lifts up his T-shirt and jacket, showing off his exposed legs and a hint of his famous, muscly torso, which he first revealed during the summer Olympics. Thrusting his crotch provocatively at the camera, the star looks straight into the lens with an amused expression on his face, showing that he’s game for a laugh.

Make-up free Sandra Bullock struggles to carry growing boy Louis Bardo and her groceries…

Sandra Bullock can forget the gym as she does enough heavily thanks to her bundle, of slightly heavy, joy. The Oscar winner looked like any other mother as she juggled two-year-old Louis, a bag of shopping and the toddler’s backpack on Wednesday in Los Angeles, California. Unaware of his mum’s impressive juggling act, little Louis was more content to keep a firm hold on his toy.

The adorable toddler looked pretty dapper doing it as well, with his hair perfectly coiffed into a stylish mohawk and wearing a red and blue stripped with blue jeans and red and white mini Adidas shoes. His Blind Side actress mother dressed more for comfort for his pre-school drop off. Looking very tired, Sandra donned light blue distressed jeans with a black hooded t-shirt, black suede flat boots and a black puffer jacket.

Obviously getting her little boy ready didn’t leave much time for cosmetics, as the People’s Choice winner just threw her hair in a messy top knot on her head and covered her make-up free face with large sunglasses. Despite this, the almost 50-year-old looked a decade younger – even without making herself up. While Louis was at school Sandra busied herself buying gifts, no doubt for the two-year-old’s teachers.

Energetic Nahla goes for a run hand-in-hand with her doting father Gabriel Aubry…

Halle Berry’s daughter Nahla, clearly lives by the adage, ‘Why walk when you can run?’ The adorable four-year-old took her father Gabriel Aubry for a jog in Beverly Hills, California, on Wednesday afternoon. Father and daughter were all smiles as the tenacious toddler grabbed her father’s hand in order to ensure he joined in her running game.

Tamera Mowry tries to get twin sister Tia to eat her placenta on ‘Tia & Tamera’ season finale!

As identical twins Tia and Tamera Mowry have a lifetime of shared experiences. But even allowing for their tight sibling bond, Tia got a bit more than she bargained for when her sister Tamera invited her to sample her placenta following the birth of her son Aden John in November. In a bizarre stunt for the season finale of Style’s Tia & Tamera reality show, Tamera squirted some of her placenta into her sister’s mouth with a dropper.

Unsurprisingly, Tia, 34, took some convincing.

‘So you want me to try and taste your placenta? Oh my god I see residue,’ Tia exclaimed as Tamera moved forward to squirt the substance into her mouth.

Perhaps it was the brandy her sister had mixed into the placenta to make it more palatable, but Tia was pleasantly surprised by the taste.

‘It’s kind of good!,’ Tia remarked.

It wasn’t the first time the twins have shared bodily substances. Tamera drank some of Tia’s breast milk in 2011 following the birth of her son Cree. Tia joked that tasting Tamera’s placenta was payback for their earlier breast milk stunt.

‘I was really, really surprised that it tasted pretty good mixed with a little bit of alcohol,’ she wrote on her blog. ‘It was definitely Tamera paying me back for making her taste my breast milk.’

‘I tasted my own breast milk and I still think my breast milk was sweeter than Tamera’s placenta!’

Eating placenta after birth – placentophagia by its scientific name – is a common practice in the animal world, but is less usual amongst humans. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

It may have been just above freezing, but biracial singer Alesha Dixon showed some serious skin as the Britain’s Got Talent auditions kicked off on Wednesday. The former Mis-teeq singer showed off her toned legs and arms in a slashed-to-the-thigh black skirt and black polo neck sleeveless top as she arrived at the Cardiff auditions.

The 34-year-old completed her outfit with a pair of peep-toe heels and a chunky Aqua belt, with her hair styled poker straight. Ahead of her arrival at the Millennium Center, Alesha had been enjoying some Twitter banter with David.

After one of the auditionees complained it was freezing waiting for the judges to arrive, David replied: ‘I will be there first. The other judges all take about 10 hours in make-up.’

Alesha then replied: ‘2 actually.’

When David boasted he would still be there first, Alesha responded: ‘Probably not! Hahaha.’

The comedian had also been teasing Simon ahead of the auditions, referring to their fictional gay romance, which he started joking about on last year’s series.

Singer Alexandra Burke has been unlucky in love, but is ‘Mr Selfridge’ star Jeremy Piven the one?

Alexandra Burke has been pictured slipping into the hotel of Mr Selfridge star and notorious Hollywood womanizer Jeremy Piven after an evening out partying.

The 24-year-old X Factor winner, who has a history of being unlucky in love, is thought to have accompanied the US actor to designer Tom Ford’s party last week but when spotted by onlookers, ever chivalrous Jeremy reportedly jumped out of their shared cab.

But it seems their ruse to possibly hide their new romance was shattered after both were spotted going back to the plush Corinthia Hotel, Alexandra appearing soon after Jeremy was seen waiting in the hotel lobby. He was later seen hanging around the lobby until the Hallelujah singer, dressed to kill in a tight black dress, walked into the hotel.

A source told Heat magazine: ‘She’s definitely his type. She could be the one who tames him.’

The former X Factor singer was most recently romantically linked to footballer Dominique Jean-Zephirin. However, Alexandra’s brief relationship with old friend Jermain Defoe ended in disaster last year after she allegedly dumped him for habitual cheating. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Spotted: NY Knicks player Carmelo Anthony and wife Lala in London for upcoming game…

NY Knicks player Carmelo Anthony and his wife Lala were spotted in London for an upcoming game with against the Detroit Pistons at the O2 Arena on Thursday. It is  Carmelo’s first time back in London since the 2012 Summer Olympic games where the NY Knicks were the gold-medal winning Olympic basketball team.

Carmelo told the NY Post that he brought his wife along to watch the exhibition style game: “It feels good to be back. I’m tired now, but I’ll get some rest and see how I feel. It’ll bring back some good memories.’’

LaLa won’t have to worry about being bored, as she’s joined by other NBA wives such as Porschla Kidd and Alexis Stoudemire. And it’s all thanks to NY Knicks owner James Dolan who rented a supersized charter so the Knicks could bring their wives and kids along for the London game.

Carmelo, who was  recently suspended for one game and will lose $177,000 of salary over fight with Kevin Garnett’s about ‘Cheerios’ jibe has another problem at hand. It is reported that when the NY Knicks play the Chicago Bulls on Friday and Sunday’s game against the Hornets, he’s hired two audio technicians to sit on opposite sides of the court to record Carmelo’s on-court dialogue with other players.

Carmelo said: “I don’t care about the microphones, I wasn’t aware of it. I found out on the plane [ride]. I don’t think the mics are going to stop what goes out on the court. But it was funny when I heard it. No, I wasn’t upset. Not at all.”

The 28-year-old took to her Celebuzz page to refute recent reports in a strongly worded post, saying: ‘These blatant lies are distasteful and shameless.’ 

‘It is disgusting that Life & Style and InTouch magazines continue to print these false stories about my life: the status of my marriage, false reports about a miscarriage, the horrible lie that my dad is not my biological father, jealousy over my sisters’ lives, etc,’ she writes.

‘It is a complete waste of time to address these reports every time they print these ridiculous and absurd tabloid stories, but not only are these stories untrue, they’re also unfair to the people who buy the magazines expecting to read accurate reports.’

Khloe was referring to allegations that the late Robert Kardashian is not her biological father, claims vigorously denied by her mother Kris Jenner. A magazine also this week published a picture of Khloe under the caption ‘Cheating Scandals’ along with the allegation that she and husband Lamar Odom had split.

It’s back – and the catfights have begun. American Idol kicked off its twelfth season on Wednesday night with a whole new judge line-up. Superstar Mariah Carey, rapper Nicki Minaj and country music sensation Keith Urban joined up with long-term judge Randy Jackson. And it didn’t take long for the much-hyped feud between Carey and Minaj to begin to simmer, with Minaj dubbing her a ‘b****’.

‘History has shown that an Idol can do anything,’ said host Ryan Seacrest, detailing the 200 million records sold and 371 number one hits racked up by former contestants. ‘Together we have created a phenomenon,’ Seacrest added. ‘It’s the dawn of a brand new season.

And with thousands of people lining up to audition in New York City they were hopeful the process would get off to a winning start.

‘How could you not find someone good?’ asked Mariah Carey. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Sofia Vergara welcomes on-screen new baby son in dramatic episode of TV comedy…

She filmed for several weeks last year wearing a prosthetic baby bump in hit TV comedy show Modern Family. And on Wednesday night, Sofia Vergara delivered her bundle of joy, in the guise of her alter-ego Gloria Delgado-Pritchett of course.  In a dramatic episode of the show, Gloria begins to go into labor during a surprise party for her son Manny.

Unable to hold the baby in – as part of an attempt not to ruin Manny’s 14th birthday party, Gloria ends up giving birth to a beautiful baby boy. And despite her lack of make-up and hospital gown, Sofia still looked stunning as she held the baby and kissed his feet while on-screen husband Jay (Ed O’Neill) and son Manny (Rico Rodriguez) visited.

Last year, Sofia admitted in an interview that she was ‘dreading’ the new arrival on the set: 

‘It’s going to change for me, because then, actually my hours of shooting with Ed and Rico [Rodriguez], they’re very fast, because we come prepared,’ she told Katie Couric.

‘We do it fast – Ed is very professional, and Rico too, he’s like an adult. And now, with a baby, it’s going to be double because they cry, and then, ‘Bring the other one, bring the new one, the diaper’ – so we’re dreading it.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Alexandra Burke fails to make a style slam dunk in bizarre veil at NBA party…

Alexandra Burke may have been hoping for a slam dunk when she appeared on the red carpet at a basketball event – but her bizarre wool hat and veil look was more foul than a style score. The X factor winner, who has been linked with serial Hollywood womanizer Jeremy Piven grinned as she posed for pictures in her odd blazer-waistcoat ensemble and tight black pants.

Boris Becker’s son Noah is front row with his VERY beautiful stepmom at Berlin Fashion Week…

His father is known for his charming manner and ease with beautiful ladies. And it appears that 18-year-old Noah Becker has inherited the same charm. Tennis player Boris Becker’s son was spotted at Berlin Fashion Week today enjoying the company of his glamorous model step-mother, Sharlely ‘Lilly’ Kerssenberg, 35, and a bright-green-haired friend, Bonnie Strange.

With his arms draped fondly around the pair, he had the confidence and poise of a man much older, despite being just 18 years old. Noah, who has his own fashion line Fancy Clothing, was in the German capital to take in the Basler fashion show. He also attended the controversial G-star fashion show two days ago, where designers sent denim jackets down the catwalk modified with pockets for machetes.

Noah, named after his parents’ friends Yannick Noah and Peter Gabriel, was born in 1994 to Boris and Barbara Becker during their seven-year-long marriage. The two had another son, Elias, born in 1999, before the marriage came to an end in 2000, one year after Boris retired from professional tennis. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Britain’s Got Talent: Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden go for ladylike chic on second day of auditions…

Their style has at times been polar opposites. But as they left their hotel for the second day of filming for Britain’s Got Talent on Thursday, Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon both chose ladylike glamour. Alesha, 34, opted for a bubblegum pink dress with a white Peter Pan collar and accessorized the look with a youthful pop of turquoise nails, heels and jewelry.

Meanwhile Amanda, 41, looked every inch the Hollywood siren in a white peplum dress, white heels and a black 1940s style bag. She topped off her outfit with what every glamazon needs – a slick of red lipstick. With such different styles, fashion battles between the two have sometimes been a tough one to call, yet on Thursday they both looked splendid with their prim and proper preening. Although Alesha had her legs out, she bravely snubbed a coat as she walked out of her luxury hotel before feeling the nip of the chilly Welsh winter.

Fan Jane Leyshon, 36, said: ‘Not many women would go out wearing a dress like that in this weather. ‘It certainly brought out a couple of her finer points – perhaps she will wear her thermals next time.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

It seems it might be time for Kim Kardashian to invest in a new maternity wardrobe. The reality TV star, 32, stepped out in LA today wearing a trench coat that couldn’t button up over her budding baby bump. Instead, she cinched her belt around her waist leaving the jacket gaping at the center.

Michael Jackson’s doctor Arnold Klein hints he is Prince Michael’s father in cryptic Facebook post…

The fallen former dermatologist to Michael Jackson has invited speculation he is the biological father of the late King of Pop’s son Prince after contrasting an old photo of himself with an image of the youngster on Facebook.

Dr Arnie Klein, who has been mired in bankruptcy and financial woes in recent years, posted an old picture of himself beneath a photo of 15-year-old Prince Michael with the cryptic tag ‘hmmmmm’. The photo appears to be a wry nod to conspiracy theorists who have speculated for years that Klein donated his own sperm to help the late King of Pop start a family. Jackson, who died in 2009, fathered Prince Michael and daughter Paris with ex-wife Debbie Rowe, who previously worked as Klein’s assistant at his practice in Beverly Hills.

Jackson’s third child Blanket was born by an anonymous surrogate in 2002. Rowe has never spoken publicly about the identity of the biological father of the children she bore Jackson. However the eccentric Klein has previously gone on record to rule out any role in the parenting of Jackson’s children.

Mariah Carey on Nicki Minaj: ‘This is what I deal with!’

American Idol judges Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj feuded on American Idol after the rapper admitted she did not vote for an act because she was wearing the same color eye shadow. And the drama left Keith Urban telling the women he felt like their ‘scratching post’ as they displayed their claws during the Chicago leg of auditions.

Urban was stuck between the two divas as the pair of superstars traded barbs, rolled their eyes, pointed and wagged fingers at each other. The drama unfolded as the judges gave their opinions over the performance of 20-year-old Stephanie Schimel, who had sung Doris Day’s Dream A Little Dream Of Me.

‘I liked it, I liked the choice of song and I thought your voice had a really pretty tone,’ said Mariah.

But Nicki was not impressed saying: ‘I was not wowed. I thought your voice is pretty, you are pretty, but nothing jumped at me. We have seen such magnetic things today and I don’t think you compared to what we have seen today.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Jovan Belcher’s mother signed agreement giving up custody of his $3 million baby…

The mother of late Kansas City Chief linebacker Jovan Belcher seeking custody of her son’s baby who’s worth more than $3 million signed over custody of the child two days after the father’s murder-suicide it’s been revealed. Cheryl Shepherd, whose son publicly took his life along with the baby’s mother’s last December, had granted ‘temporary guardianship’ to the mother’s family despite today’s ensuing fight for custody.

It’s that agreement, though temporary, which legal experts say severely damages Ms Shepherd’s chance of winning back custody of the four-month-old, as well as the child’s lucrative estate. Zoey, who’s currently living with the mother’s family in Austin, Texas, was orphaned on Dec. 1 when her father killed her mother, Kasandra Perkins, at the couple’s home in suburban Kansas City.

Belcher’s mother had been living with the couple for about two weeks and was in the home when her son killed Perkins before taking his own life at the Chief’s Arrowhead Stadium. Ms Shepherd received temporary custody of Belcher’s daughter soon after the shootings and filed a petition in mid-December asking to be appointed as Zoey’s guardian and conservator of her estate, which is worth about $3 million.

NBA glamour lights up London and Lala Anthony and son Kiyan were there to witness it!

A host of Premier League stars past and present sat courtside as the NBA brought its unique brand of razzamatazz to London Friday. The New York Knicks beat the Detroit Pistons 102-87 in a regular-season game in front of a sell-out 18,689 crowd at the O2 Arena in North Greenwich. Thierry Henry was joined by former team-mates Robert Pires and Patrick Vieira.

Clint Dempsey, Jack Butland, Ryan Bertrand, Sylvain Distin, Tim Howard and Marouane Chamakh were all in the stands too. Ashley Cole was here courtesy of his friend Dave Hancock, the Knicks’ English director of training and conditioning who was once physio at Chelsea under Jose Mourinho.  The England left-back proved an unwelcome spectator however, with loud boos emanating when cameras projected his image onto the big screen midway through the third period. Think George Osborne at the Paralympics.

Carmelo Anthony’s son Kiyan Anthony also sat courtside with his mom Lala as they watched daddy, New York Knicks forward, play against the Detroit Pistons during their regulation NBA basketball game at the O2 Arena in London, England  on Friday January 17, 2013 and led the New York Knicks to a 102-87 victory.

A 15 strong SWAT team were sent to Kris and Bruce Jenner’s California mansion on Friday afternoon; with at least two helicopters hovering up above as back up. Kim Kardashian, 32, tweeted her panic from the Ivory Coast after being informed of the commotion, which was sparked by a bogus call to the police claiming a shooting had taken place at the Calabasas home.

Her younger sisters, Kendall and Kylie were less dramatic and saw the funny side of it all… as did patriarch Bruce, who posed for an instagram with the police officers. The 17-year-old then posted a picture of her father merrily posing with officers in front of the mansion’s famous sweeping staircase; and of the squad cars lined up outside the home.

Kylie Tweeted: ‘my neighbours officially think I’m crazy’ to which her sister Kendall replied: ‘Our whole household is crazy.’

Kim, of course, was a tad more dramatic. She wrote: ‘Just got a call from my mom telling me about this prank call that someone was shot in their home & 15 swat team & 3 helicopters showed up!’ Kim added: These prank calls are not funny! People can get arrested for this! I hope they find out who is behind this. It’s dangerous & not a joke!’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Alexandra Burke dresses down for girl’s night out…

She made headlines this week when she was spotted slipping into the hotel of Mr Selfridge star and notorious Hollywood womanizer Jeremy Piven. But despite talks of a rumored romance, Alexandra Burke stepped out to party on Friday with just the girls.

However it seems the 24-year-old didn’t get the memo about dressing to impress as she looked considerably under-dressed as she joined a host of female pals to attend model Jourdan Dunn’s leaving party.

The X Factor winner opted for a casual look for her night out, perhaps to avoid getting too cold in the snowy weather. Slipping into a pair of very tight black disco pants, Alexandra showed off her toned figure. Instead of wearing a glamorous top though the singer opted for a large orange long-sleeved top.

Over the top she hung a leather jacket on her shoulders and in keeping with the look she sensibly wore a pair of biker boots. While her outfit may have been casual her hair looked A-list party ready as wore it down and poker straight. Her look was in stark contrast to model Jourdan Dunn’s glitzy look. The gorgeous girl, who was holding a leaving party ahead of her move to New York, opted for a very short gold sequined dressed.

Maybe landing on the worst dressed list at the Golden Globes has inspired her to spruce up her wardrobe. Halle Berry was spotted on Friday walking alongside French beau Olivier Martinez on the trendy shopping strip Abbot Kinney in Venice Beach, California. Not joining the pair was Halle’s 4-year-old daughter Nahla, who has been caught in the middle of a nasty custody dispute with her father Gabriel Aubry.

Olivier played the doting boyfriend, carrying several large bags as the couple of two years strolled arm in arm. The Cloud Atlas actress was decidedly dressed down for the warm and sunny weather, wearing a loose grey poncho over an oversized white shirt and torn jeans matched casual cool with a large grey hobo bag and black strappy boots.

Her boyfriend and Dark Tide co-star matched her casual cool with a black leather jacked and grey T-shirt and jeans. The 46-year-old’s look was quite the departure from Sunday’s fiasco at the Golden Globes, where the slender actress looked as through she was popping out of the bodice of her Versace dress.

Olivia Munn steps out in bizarre ‘tracksuit’ style outfit at BAFTA Los Angeles 2013 Awards…

Despite accepting an invite for a British style tea party, Olivia Munn looked a little more ready for the gym than a swanky awards season celebration at The Four Seasons Hotel.

The 32-year-old star arrived at the BAFTA Los Angeles 2013 Awards Season bash on Saturday afternoon sporting a bizarre black and white sleeveless top and pants with one white stripe down the side.

The brunette star was only outdone in the badly dressed stakes by Bond Girl Bérénice Marlohe who sported an ill fitting white belted pant suit which little to flatter her svelte figure. The stunning French actress teamed her outfit with black strappy heels, bright red lipstick and smoky eye shadow.

Their pantsuits were a stark contrast to the more appropriate tea dresses worn by stars Sienna Miller and Francesca Eastwood.  Sienna, who has been nominated for a gong for her role as Tippi Hedren in Hitchcock drama The Girl, sported a vintage style pink dress and nude heels. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Denzel Washington and Kelly Reily dazzle at ‘Flight Paris movie premiere…

He’s a Hollywood A-lister with two Oscars to his name and has been nominated for another one. But on Tuesday night, Denzel Washington was happy to let his Flight co-star Kelly Reilly be the center of attention at the Paris premiere of the film. While Denzel, 58, kept warm on the freezing night in his coat, English actress Kelly, 35, bared some flesh in a dramatic black gown with cut-out back.

The pair and their co-stars are on the European promotional trail for the new drama, which has been nominated for two Academy Awards, including Best Actor for Denzel. Also in attendance was the film’s director Robert Zemeckis, former Heroes star Jimmy Jean-Louis and Italian actress Caterina Murino.

Flight stars Denzel as troubled airline pilot Whip Whitaker, who battles drink and drug problems while on the job.  Rising star Kelly, who plays Mary Watson in the recent Sherlock Holmes movies, plays a recovering heroin addict Nicole. In a recent interview, Denzel admitted he abstained from alcohol during the film, but over-indulged in food so he could look bloated.

He told Seven magazine: ‘I absolutely did not drink the entire picture.  Normally I might have a glass of wine after work or something like that.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

‘They’re starting to seriously worry’: Concern growing about low turnout at Obama inauguration!

Crowds may have flocked to the National Mall to see President Obama make history in 2009, but the team behind the president’s 2013 inauguration bash later this month are bracing themselves for a ton of empty seats.

The ceremony that Washington will stage in a few weeks won’t be the historic affair it was in 2009, when nearly 2 million people flocked to the Capitol to watch Obama take the oath of office. This time, District of Columbia officials expect between 600,000 and 800,000 people for Obama’s public swearing-in on the steps of the Capitol on Monday, January 21.

Two weeks before the big day, plenty of hotel rooms still haven’t been booked. Four years ago, some hotels sold out months in advance. There will be just two official inaugural balls this year, both at the Washington Convention Center, rather than 10 official balls at multiple locations around town. The pair of celebrations are the lowest number since 1953, according to the New York Post.

A political insider told the paper: ‘Some on the presidential inaugural committee are starting to seriously worry.’

His inaugural committee has also scaled the celebration back to three days of festivities, instead of four. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama says ‘aloha’ to vacation as first family arrives back in Washington!

President Barack Obama has returned to Washington after a winter vacation in Hawaii that was interrupted by the ‘fiscal cliff’ crisis. Obama arrived at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland on Sunday morning after an overnight flight as Sasha and Malia return to school tomorrow.

The president’s annual end-of-year visit to his native state was disrupted just after Christmas when he was forced to return to the capital to help broker a solution on a plan to avert a combination of tax increases and spending cuts that could have plunged the economy back into recession.

He returned to Hawaii on New Year‘s Day. One of the first things he did after touching down in the Aloha state was to indulge in his favorite treat of lemon-lime and cherry flavored shaved ice. The return trip to his native Hawaii adds an estimated $3 million the President’s air travel tab – which will total more than $7 million by the time the First Family returns to the White House later this month.

White House BANS paparazzi images of Sasha and Malia Obama on Hawaiian beach!!!

Paparazzi shots of Malia and Sasha Obama have been quashed by the White House after a photographer reportedly stumbled across the girls on a public beach in Hawaii. The images of the President’s daughters were taken last week while a paparazzo was actually waiting for singer Jessica Simpson to leave her vacation home.

Secret service agents, who were accompanying the girls on their walk, immediately approached the photographer and asked for identification. They allowed the man to keep his camera but gave him a stern warning to stop photographing the first daughters. However when the paparazzo later sold the images to picture agencies, he was slapped with a warning letter from the White House telling him to stop their release.

A source told Celebuzz that the White House sent the photographer an official letter stating that ‘Sasha and Malia’s privacy should be maintained as they were on a private holiday… and that other media had been respecting these requirements’. Visit Celebuzz to continue reading…

President Obama to be sworn into office using two Bibles – one used by Martin Luther King as well as Lincoln Bible…

President Obama is putting a symbolic twist on a time-honored tradition, taking the oath of office for his second term with his hand placed not on a single Bible, but two – one owned by Martin Luther King Jr. and one by Abraham Lincoln.

The inclusion of King’s Bible is particularly significant since the inauguration comes on Jan. 21, the federal holiday in honor of the civil rights leader, who delivered his ‘I Have a Dream’ speech 50 years ago at the Lincoln Memorial.

Obama will be facing the memorial as he takes the oath. King’s Bible, which his children say he used early in his career as a preacher, has never been part of a presidential inauguration before. Though there is no constitutional requirement for the use of a Bible while taking the oath, George Washington began the tradition with a Bible hastily grabbed from St. John’s Masonic Lodge No. 1 for his swearing-in on April 30, 1789, in New York.

Beyonce set to perform National Anthem at President Obama‘s Inauguration

Her performance of the soulful classic At Last was one of the highlights of President Barack Obama‘s first Inauguration. Now Beyonce will once again welcome the Commander In Chief into the Oval office for his second term. The 31-year-old singer has been chosen to sing the National Anthem at the prestigious event on January 21, it was announced on Wednesday.

A vocal supporter of the President, the singer has been chosen to perform along with Kelly Clarkson who will sing ‘My Country ‘Tis Of Thee’ and James Taylor who will be singing ‘America The Beautiful’ on the West Front of the US Capitol in Washington, D.C, the Presidential Inaugural Committee revealed.

And, Obama couldn’t be happier. The 51-year-old President said in a statement: ‘Vice President Biden and I are honored to have these wonderfully talented musical artists perform at the Inaugural ceremony. Their music is often at the heart of the American story and speaks to folks across the country.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama nominates ‘anti-Israel’ Chuck Hagel as Pentagon chief!

President Barack Obama today nominated Chuck Hagel as Pentagon chief, daring Republicans to block a decorated Vietnam veteran who ‘bears the scars and the shrapnel of battles he fought in our name’. The nomination will trigger a fresh battle  where a number of Democrats are openly skeptical about the former Republican senator following his comments about ‘the Jewish lobby’ and opposition to ‘an openly, aggressively gay’ nominee as ambassador to Luxembourg.

Obama’s choice of the former two-term senator for Nebraska, revealed by congressional Democratic aides on Sunday, is likely to set up a gruelling confirmation fight in the Senate over whether Hagel supports key U.S. ally Israel after he previously called for negotiations with the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas.

The president described him as ‘the leader our troops deserve’, pointing out that he would be the first former enlisted soldier to be U.S. Defence Secretary.

Obama said pointedly: ‘I hope that the Senate will act on these confirmations promptly. When it comes to national security, we don’t like to leave a lot of gaps between the time that one set of leaders transitions out and another transitions in. So we need to get moving quickly on this.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama nominates mastermind of controversial drone strike program as next CIA director!

President Obama today nominated the man who masterminded the expansion of the hugely controversial drone program as the new director of the Central Intelligence Agency. John Brennan, 57, the current head of counter-terrorism, has also provoked ire on the Left because of his connection during the Bush administration, when he was a senior CIA officer, to ‘Enhanced Interrogation Techniques‘ such as water-boarding, which many regard as torture.

Despite past controversies, the president today praised him as one of the nation’s most skilled and respected intelligence professionals while announcing his nomination.

‘In John Brennan, the men and women of the CIA will have the leadership of one of our nation’s most skilled and respected intelligence professionals,’ Obama said at the White House.

Alluding to the drone strike program, Obama said: ‘Think about the results. More al-Qaeda leaders and commanders have been removed from the battlefield than at any time since 9/11. He added: ‘John is legendary even in the White House for working hard,” Obama said. “He is one of the hardest working public servants I have ever seen.’

Obama picked Brennan over Michael Morrell, the acting CIA chief, who stood alongside Brennan and the president during the announcement. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama jokes Jack Lew’s loopy signature could ‘debase our currency’ as he makes him official pick for Treasury Secretary…

President Barack Obama today formally nominated his chief of staff Jacob ‘Jack’ Lew as Treasury Secretary and joked that he had considered abandoning the nomination after learning of his illegible signature. The president was responding to criticism of Lew’s scrawl which has been compared to a spring or a curly French fry – and how if it is not changed could become an international embarrassment as the Treasury Secretary’s signature always graces the dollar bill.

‘Jack assures me that he is going to work to make at least one letter legible in order not to debase our currency should he be confirmed as secretary of the Treasury,’ Obama said, naming Lew as the man he wants to succeed Timothy Geithner.

Lew, 57, ‘has my complete trust’, Obama said, arguing that the former White House budget director was the best man to help stabilize the US economy, not least because he had helped negotiate bipartisan deals in the 1980s. Visit DailyMail to continue reading,..

Rupert Murdoch goes to war with environmentalists on Twitter as he claims fossil fuels ‘are making the world greener’…

Rupert Murdoch has taken to Twitter to attack environmentalists claiming that rising levels of carbon dioxide from fossil fuels have been good for the planet. The media mogul based his statements on an article which reported that 30 years of satellite images have shown that the Earth is actually getting greener.

Murdoch, a frequent and outspoken critic of renewable energy, tweeted today: ‘World growing greener with increased carbon. Thirty years of satellite evidence. Forests growing faster and thicker.’

He then referenced an article by Matt Ridley in the Wall Street Journal on January 5.  Earlier in the day, the tycoon had posted: ‘Why not switch from useless renewable energy investments to real job creating infrastructure projects. Many great possibilities waiting.’

The WSJ article contends that over 30 years, the world has become a greener place going against the arguments of environmentalists that our planet is at risk from deforestation harming our fragile ecosystem. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian flaunts her pregnancy curves in sheer top, lacy bra and skin-tight pencil skirt…

It already seems clear who is the boss of celebrity couple Kimye. For while her beau was out searching for gifts to shower her with, Kim Kardashian was flaunting her pregnancy body at an event in Calgary, Alberta on Friday.

The reality television star was not holding back in her outfit choice as she hosted the Cowboy’s Iced event at a nightclub in the city. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star wore a knee high skirt, skimpy black blouse and sheer top as she towed the line between racy and conservative.

And she perhaps leaned closer to the former, as her lacy black bra was clearly visible through her top. Kim is believed to be 12 weeks into her pregnancy. But the star nonetheless opted for towering black stilettos to top off her ensemble.

Of course people would still be none the wiser about her pregnancy if it was not for Kanye West, who recently made the shock announcement Kim was his ‘baby mama’ live on stage. But he is nothing if not considerate, as he was gift hunting for his lady in New York while Kim made her promotional appearance. Kanye was spotted looking for a gift in posh shops in New York City – first at Kirna Zabete and then Louis Vuitton.

Rapper Tyga talks love, gambling and career…

Biracial rapper Tyga promoted his “187” single featuring Rick Ross on Big Boy neighborhood recently and revealed that there’s meaning behind the song title (e.g. he’s murdering the game).

He also said he hopes to work with Chris Brown on a new mixtape at some point: “Whenever we stop driving Lambos and posting pictures on Instagram, maybe we could finish it.”

He talked about his love for his girlfriend Blac Chyna with whom he recently had a baby boy. When asked who said “I love you” first or if sings songs to her, he said he isn’t that type of dude.

He did speak on what they enjoy doing in their free time: “We got a real gangsta relationship. Ya’ll not gonna see us doing no crazy, corny stuff. We go to the strip club together, do stuff like that.”

Big tried his hardest to get him to show his sensitive side but it didn’t work. And if he had to chose between saving Nicki Minaj or Drake from drowning and there was only room for one on a life raft, he said he’d save Nicki. And between Drake and Lil’ Wayne, he said “I’d extend both hands.” Then he admitted, he’d save Wayne.

He also talked about his love of roulette and revealed that though he’s not a big gambler, he’s had nights where he’s lost at least $40,000.

Police frenzy sparked after one of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s children ‘accidentally presses panic button’…

At least they’re prepared for the slightest hint of trouble. One of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s kids accidentally pushed a ‘panic alarm’ inside their house last night that prompted a Herculean response from the LAPD, according to TMZ. Police cars AND a helicopter were sent to the family’s Los Feliz home at 9pm after an alarm went off.

TMZ’s sources say the police were told it was a huge mistake when they arrived at the compound in the trendy east hills, and informed by a nanny that one of the children pressed the alarm by mistake. Brad and Angelina weren’t at home but were informed about the false alarm by the nanny.

The family have just returned from Donna Karan’s home in Turks and Caicos where they spent the holidays with their families, and all those children. But it seems the family may not be taking care of Maddox, Shiloh, Knox, Vivienne, Pax and Zahara alone.

Architectural Digest editor-at-large Jeffrey Slonim posted on his blog: ‘At lunch on a small island three away from Parrot Cay. A woman said she’d heard from a local that [Pitt and Jolie] were in town with two nannies per child. Count ’em, 12 nannies!’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

La Toya and Prince Jackson look baffled surrounded by German soldiers at a charity dinner…

Watch out, the Jacksons have headed to Europe. And on the way La Toya and Prince Michael Jr., decided to stop in on a German charity dinner. Surrounded by men wearing strange suits La Toya, 56, looked slightly bemused as she clutched onto a rather dapper Prince.

Although it is unknown exactly why the pair are on a whistlestop tour of Europe, they made sure they were going to do their bit for charity. Stopping off at the Jummimueues Charity Gala the pair looked suitably dashing as they posed up with strangers. La Toya wore a crisp white suit with sparkling earrings and a leaf motif while Prince, 15, kept it chic in a leather suit.

With tousled waves and bright cherry red lipstick, La Toya also accessorized with a glistening clutch, shimmering brooch and chandelier earrings. It was exactly the same outfit the star wore to Donny and Marie – Christmas in Los Angele, a month earlier where many thought she had simply forgotten her blouse – this deliberate outfit choice at the gala dinner showed it is all part of a bigger plan.

Sofia Vergara shops for handbags with fiancé Nick Loeb after New Year’s bust up…

Witnessing your fiancé having a fight with an ex isn’t the best way to welcome in a new year, but Sofia Vergara seemed to be getting over the bust up in the old fashion way. With a bit of retail therapy. Joining her on a shopping trip in Miami was her guilty partner Nick Loeb, who is no doubt hoping to make amends after his ungentlemanly behavior which left Sofia baring more of her ample curves than she was hoping.

Dressed for the weather, the actress wore a vibrant palm leaf-print maxi skirt and black vest top with some gold bracelets and sunglasses. Nick opted for a similarly casual look in a faded blue polo shirt and grey chinos. Clearly Sofia was looking for an oversize handbag as she tried and tested a few large leather ones in red, black and cream, that all featured some stud detail.

On New Year’s Eve she and her fiancé Nick Loeb were involved in a scuffle at a Miami club that left Sofia exposed and knocked to the ground. Nick was apparently on edge already because he was jealous of the club owner and host of the party, Chris Paciello, who dated Sofia in the nineties.

Heidi Klum and beau Martin Kristen take the kids to gym class before hitting the shops…

They might have only been dating for a few months, but it seems that Heidi Klum‘s new man Martin Kristen is already part of the family. The bodyguard-turned-boyfriend seemed happy to play dad as he took Heidi’s children to the gym class on Saturday before hitting the shops.

Clearly the doting boyfriend, Martin seemed completely relaxed with the little ones as he ferried them inside, proving that he’s becoming a permanent family fixture. Clutching some juice boxes for the kids, while Heidi held an apple, he seemed happy in his new role as surrogate dad.

Later in the day, the couple ran some errands together, stopping by Whole Foods in the posh Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, looking like they were stocking up for winter. Showing that their relationship is no rebound and that things are getting serious, the happy couple seemed completely relaxed as they wheeled out a trolley full of brown packages including milk, fruits, vegetables and several bottles of wine.

Make-up free and dishevelled Eva Mendes looks downcast after spending New Year’s Eve apart from her famous beau!

Eva Mendes‘ slightly disheveled and definitely distracted appearance on Saturday could be to do with her missing her man. The actress, who is dating heart throb Ryan Gosling, has not seen him since before the New Year, according to reports, because of work commitments.

She was seen going for a hike on NYE with her dog and then was spotted in Downtown Los Angeles staring intently at her phone and looking a bit glum. Mendes was also not her usual stylish self – perhaps missing Gosling, 32, was the reason. The 38-year-old star was wearing baggy pajama-like pants with a rose pattern and a black long-sleeved polo neck.

She teamed the get-up with with flat ankle boots and her face was make-up free. Her long brunette hair was loose and a bit flyaway. As previously mentioned Mendes and Gosling – who fell in love of the set of the upcoming gritty drama The Place Beyond the Pines – have been forced to spend time apart due to their busy film schedules. The Training Day actress has been spotted numerous times over the past week out and about without her boyfriend.

Chelsee Healey has ANOTHER fashion fail in thigh high leather boots on a night out…

Every time biracial actress Chelsee Healey seems to pull herself back from the brink of a fashion fiasco, she steps out in another outfit fit for the ‘What were you thinking?’ pages. And it was no different on Saturday night, for the actress stepped out in some Pretty Woman style leather boots.

Bare-legged and wearing some super tight hotpants, Chelsee definitely channeled Julia Roberts’ character Vivian Ward – a pre-Rodeo Drive makeover Vivian that is. But that’s not to say the entire outfit was a fail.

The shaggy fur jumper tucked into her gold baroque shorts would have looked far more chic if paired with some opaque tights and some some simple court shoes.

However, the overload of metallic accessories – giant earrings and envelope clutch bag – again reduced the elegance in what could have been a stylish outfit. Chelsee was on a night out with X Factor judge Tulisa having enjoyed some drinks at a hotel before heading off to the Circle nightclub.

Alexandra Burke wears a snakeskin swimsuit whilst lounging round the pool with friends in Miami…

Another day another swimsuit for multiracial singer Alexandra Burke who opted for animal print on Saturday in Miami. Lying on a sun lounger, the singer chose a cutaway style rather than a bikini which complemented her skin tone and her color to perfection.

And looking every bit the the urban artist, Alex finished off her look with some chunky heart-shaped earrings and a thin gold necklace.

London girl through and through, her snack of choice was some toast washed down by a traditional cup of tea that she enjoyed with her friends round the hotel pool. But after a while the hot temperature proved too much, so the 24-year old went for a dip. Carefully easing herself into the water, Alex seemed to be taking her time to adjust to the colder temperature.

For the last few days, the former X Factor winner has been soaking up the sun on the beach. She showed off her ultra-toned figure as she played on the beach with pals, even taking to a paddle-board to demonstrate her obvious athleticism. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Tulisa‘s biracial boyfriend Danny Simpson introduces her to his crew!

Things are obviously getting serious with Tulisa and her footballer lover Danny Simpson. The WAG was introduced to her 26-year-old boyfriend’s old friends ‘The Salford Crew’ over the weekend and Danny shared a friendly snap of the whole group down the pub. Tulisa is seen grinning infront of a table covered in lager but after Newcastle United player Danny, who was born in Eccles in Manchester.

A fan caught glimpse of the singer and X-Factor UK judge and tweeted the friendly snap, writing: ‘This looks like an episode of Shameless.’

Wearing a casual outfit of a simple T-shirt and pink cardigan Tulisa looks comfortable as she poses up next to Danny. There was a rocky start to the couple’s relationship after Danny’s ex-girlfriend Stephanie Ward, the mother of his one-year-old daughter, branded Tulisa a ‘home-wrecker’ and claimed she was pregnant with her second child with Danny.

But the father of one maintained that he broke up with his ex weeks earlier, and has told friends he is confident that he can make his relationship with Tulisa go the distance. In a scathing eight-page document released by the singer’s lawyers, she denied she knew Stephanie was pregnant and slammed the idea that she ‘stole’ the footballer from her.

Make-up free Kim Kardashian shows off the beginnings of a bump as she indulges her cravings with a caramel apple…

She might be pregnant but Kim Kardashian obviously sees no need to relax her busy schedule. The busy reality star flew into Miami on Sunday, and announced plans to head off on a promotional tour to the Ivory Coast.

The star wore oversized glasses and went make-up free as she arrived at the airport. Kim’s oversized pink shirt skimmed what appeared to be the start of a baby bump, with Kim teaming it with a white blazer, loose brown pants and nude heels.

Earlier on Saturday, Kim tweeted that she was enjoying a bit of sweets, something which her celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson may not approve of.

‘Apple pie caramel apple from the Rockie Mountain Chocolate Factory. Oldie but gooooooodie!!!!’ she wrote.

The slip in healthy eating as a big departure for Kim, who hired Anderson based on her latest workout venture, the Pregnancy Project, and her expertise with helping women stay on track.

Instead of celebrating the holiday of Armenian Christmas with her family, Kim has been visiting friends in the beach city, including Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Madonna looks steadier on her skis as she takes to the slopes…but it’s Mercy who steals the show…

Her skiing holiday didn’t get off to the best of starts as she took a tumble or two.
But it looks like Madonna finally got into the swing of things as she took to the slopes in Gstaad, Switzerland once again, but this time accompanied by an instructor. Meanwhile her daughters Lourdes and Mercy looked far more confident as they effortlessly glided along.

The 54-year-old star has been celebrating the start of the year with a family skiing holiday, accompanied by her Brazilian toy boy Brahim Zaibat. While the Like A Virgin singer started off her week on a bad foot – she spent most of her time on her bum- she seemed steadier the longer she spent on the slopes. Almost unrecognizable in an all-black ski suit, Madonna covered the majority of her face with a balaclava and wore a helmet.

As she took to the slopes with her instructor, who dressed all in blue, the usually confident star looked rather cautious. It’s thought the instructor is Ernest Marmet, who was recommended to her by none other than designer Valentino. While the Queen of pop was treated to a one-on-one lesson, her youngest children Mercy and David also had lessons.

Tommy Mottola: ‘I was the reason Mariah Carey succeeded!’

Former head of Sony Music and Mariah Carey‘s controversial first husband, Tommy Mottola, has hit-back at claims he was a controlling tyrant during their marriage, writing in his upcoming memoir that the singer should be grateful as he made her a star.

Carey has previously described her four year marriage to Mottola, the record executive who first signed her, as a ‘private hell’ and said the music supremo, 20 years her senior, abused her ‘mentally and emotionally’.

The singer, now one of the best selling music artists of all time, married the record company boss at the age of 23. She said he was jealous and overpowering and she ‘longed for someone to kidnap’ her from the unhappy marriage which lasted from 1993 to 1997.

But the former head of Sony hit backs in his upcoming memoir ‘Hitmaker’ saying he may have seemed ‘controlling’ but that was how he made Carey a star, according to the New York Post. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Pregnant Kim Kardashian steps out for dinner in an electric blue dress with some very revealing cut-outs…

One thing Kim Kardashian doesn’t need to draw attention to his her infamous curves, particularly as all eyes are already on her due to her pregnancy. But that, of course, didn’t stop the TV star from causing a stir when she stepped out for a spot of dinner in Miami on Sunday night.

Clearly keen to make the most of the time she has left to put those famous curves on display, Kim opted for a bold blue strapless dress with strategically placed cut-outs. The peekaboo cut revealed both her cleavage and a hint of her bump, which was embellished with spiky silver jewels.

Kim finished off her look with pointy heels and a small black jacket resting over her shoulders to keep her from the chill and cover the strapless frock. She wore her dark locks piled up high on her head in a bun, while she carried her petite clutch bag in her hand.

After finishing her meal at the Miami Beach restaurant Kim happily spoke to and posed with fans who were waiting for her as she left. The 32-year-old struck a pose pouting as she was flanked by two females, ecstatic to have bumped into her during their evening out.

Naomi Campbell forced to wear ballet pumps to party after she’s injured in Paris mugging…

As one of Britain’s most iconic fashion models she is used to strutting down the runway in high heels. But, Naomi Campbell stepped out in some very unlikely footwear as she put her best dress on for a glamorous party on Sunday evening.

The 42-year-old looked superb during the night out as she attended the NBC Universal 2013 TCA Winter Press Tour Party. However, instead of wearing a pair of her trademark high heels she sported some flat shoes to make her night out a little easier.

Naomi, who was at The Langham Huntington Hotel and Spa in Pasadena, California, looked lovely in her plunging neckline dress as she hung out with fellow models Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha. Her good friend and former male model Nigel Barker also joined the group as they made a very stylish pack. Although Miss Campbell’s footwear may have let down her outfit,

it is most likely she was forced to wear the flats due to her recent injury. Naomi was left in a wheelchair after thieves attempted to snatch her handbag as she sat in a limousine in central Paris, French in November 2012. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Charlize Theron has some competition in the style stakes as son Jackson rocks mini UGG boots…

She’s widely considered to be one of the most stylish actresses in Hollywood, never afraid to push the boat out when it comes to experimenting with the latest fashions. But it seems Charlize Theron may have some competition in the style stakes from someone very close to home – her son Jackson.

The 37-year-old actress’ adopted son looked super trendy as he rocked some mini UGG boots as his mother carried him through Los Angeles’ LAX airport on Sunday. Jackson teamed his UGGs, which retail for around £110, with a pair of stripe-trimmed pants and a knitted black, white and red cardigan.

The gorgeous little boy, who was adopted by Charlize back in May 2012, seemed entirely unfazed by the attention he and his famous mother were receiving as they touched down in LA after flying in following a two week holiday in the south of France.

Charlize, meanwhile, showed off her slender figure in a pair of skinny, bright blue jeans, teamed with a loose-fitting navy cardigan and blue and grey striped scarf. The Mad Max actress finished off her outfit with a huge pair of sunglasses, and kept her short hair hidden beneath a quirky grey hat.

Olympic Gymnast Louis Smith: ‘I’d like to start my own range…’

He is the Olympic gymnast and King of the Strictly dance floor known for his dapper style and charming looks. So it comes as no surprise that fashion-forward Louis Smith wants to channel his signature suited-and-booted look into his own fashion line.

‘I have a lot of clothes in my head that I’d like to wear, but that I don’t see out there, so I’m really interested about trying to get into fashion and perhaps starting my own range,’ he said.

Speaking in a London College of Fashion film promoting London Collections: Men showcase, he discussed his eclectic style.

He said: ‘Men’s fashion is all over the place and that’s the beauty of it, it’s not just following one track and I like to dip my toes in all the different puddles of fashion.’

While we are most accustomed to seeing the silver medalist in his Lycra (and since Strictly, more than a sprinkling of sequins), Louis makes it clear that he will not be filling his clothing rails with sportswear.

‘You’ve got to look fresh in a suit, you’ve got to be able to busy it out,’he said. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Pregnant Kim Kardashian covers her bump with a loose cardigan as she makes her way to bikini shoot…

She’s been doing little to conceal her baby bump after announcing her exciting pregnancy news earlier this month. But Kim Kardashian came over uncharacteristically shy as she made her way down to Miami Beach in Florida on Sunday for a bikini shoot.

Kim gave just a hint of her white bikini as she covered up in a loose-fitting knitted cardigan while preparing for the shoot. The 32-year-old reality star did her best to keep her pregnancy curves under wraps in the ensemble, keeping the knitwear pulled tight around her while strolling on the sand to the perfect shoot spot.

Kim was flanked by an army of cameramen, hair and make-up artists, on hand to ensure she looked flawless for the shoot. However, despite her entourage of assistants, Kim cut something of a lonely figure as she made her way along the beach. Kim’s glum appearance could be down to the fact that there was no sign of her baby daddy Kanye West on the shoot, as the rapper is thought to still be in New York.

But Kim ensured she was keeping in touch with her beau, and was seen clutching her mobile phone and apparently messaging as she walked along. However, Kim kept herself entertained when she spotted a photographer who had fallen asleep on the beach when he was meant to be snapping shots of the star at work.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West ‘turn down Brangelina-style $3m offer for first pictures of their baby’…

For Kim Kardashian making her private life public is her very reason for stardom. But it seems motherhood may have already begun to have an effect on the reality star, who is in the early stages of pregnancy. Kim, 32, and her boyfriend Kanye West are said to have turned down a huge $3 million offer for the first exclusive photos of their yet to be born child.

A source told website TMZ that the couple have been ‘flooded’ with lucrative offers from media outlets desperate to be the first to publish the baby pictures. The huge $3 million offer compares to Brangelina’s $4.1 million payout following the birth of their first child Shiloh in 2006. Although that was dwarfed by the $14 million they received after the birth of the twins. The couple donated the payments to a charitable trust they had set up.

The news of Kim’s decision is all the more surprising as unlike other more private stars she has previously shown no interest in hiding any facet of her life from public view. But perhaps her boyfriend is the one behind the move. Rapper Kanye has previously been reported to be uncomfortable with the way Kim lives, with her reality shows, paparazzi attention and self-publicity on her blog combining to put every aspect of her life under constant public scrutiny.

Heidi Klum covers Marie Claire’s February 2013 issue and talks experimenting in the bedroom: ‘If you are wild and crazy, bring it on…’

Former super-model Heidi Klum has ruled out becoming a ‘cougar’ – while admitting she likes to experiment in bed. The fashion mogul, who split from husband Seal, a year ago, said she sees the attraction in an older woman dating a younger man. But the 39-year-old said it wasn’t for her.

‘I can understand why a woman finds a young man attractive, because the truth is that when men get older, their shape changes,’ Klum said.

‘Younger men train more, and when the clothes come off, it is nice to look at a sexy, ripped body.  But I am realistic. I’m turning 40 next year. ‘I don’t think I could deal with waking up next to a 25-year-old.’

Klum, who is dating her bodyguard Martin Kirsten, said she believes every woman should be a ‘little devil’ sometime in the bedroom.

‘It’s good to make an effort to dress up sometimes – to do things outside of the norm,’ she tells U.S. Marie Claire in its February issue. ‘Some people are more experimental in bed and others are more boring. If you are wild and crazy, bring it on so the other person is well aware that you have little devil horns that come out every once in a while.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Heidi Klum: ‘When you have a good body, photographers will say, “Let’s take this off”. You have to be strong at saying no!’

Following Kate Moss’s revelations that she suffered a near nervous breakdown as a teenager after being pushed into posing topless, another top model has expressed her own concerns.

Supermodel Heidi Klum may have made a name for herself by posing half naked on the cover of Sports Illustrated naked on the cover of GQ and as a lingerie-clad Victoria’s Secret Angel.

But she insists young models should say no to posing nude. Speaking to Ocean Drive in their 20th anniversary issue, the 39-year-old revealed how over the years she has learned to toe the line between tasteful and obscene at a very young age and says young girls have to remain strong.

She said: ‘When you have a good body, photographers will often be like, “Yeah, let’s take this off, and why don’t we lose this too, and you can quickly end up not wearing much clothing. You have to be careful and strong at saying no, especially when you’re younger and on your own. Not everyone is cool and has your best interest [at heart].’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Mariah Carey flaunts her flat tummy in bikini as she reveals Nicki Minaj made her feel ‘unsafe’ on American Idol…

She dropped 70 pounds after giving birth to her fraternal twins, Monroe and Moroccan. And nearly two years later, Mariah Carey flaunted her flat tummy and ample cleavage in a red bikini on an Australian beach this week. The 42-year-old pop star flew Down Under with her husband Nick Cannon and ‘Dem Babies’ after their Christmas holiday in Aspen in order to perform a series of shows in the Gold Coast, Sydney, and Melbourne.

The former Jenny Craig spokeswoman, who kept her tiny denim mini-skirt on for the candid snap, appeared to be enjoying her sandy break from the mini-tour. Mariah has received lackluster reviews for her shows, which critics have labeled ‘awkward,’ ‘unrehearsed,’ and ‘uneven.’ For her concert at the Gold Coast Convention, Mariah arrived late and stopped the music at one point due to technical problems, according to the Toronto Sun.

‘I’m not asking for the moon and the stars,’ Carey said onstage. ‘There’s a lot of sound problems going on here. I don’t know if it’s me or you, or something in the air, but can we fix it?’

The Grammy winner with the five-octave vocal range will soon return to the set of the 12th season of American Idol, which premieres January 16, alongside judges Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

It was a big learning curve for me. I’ve been asked for the last 12 years to do television,’ Naomi revealed, adding that what she liked about this project ‘was the whole thing about mentoring. ‘I’ve been working 26 years, and I do feel like I have something to share.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Angelina Jolie‘s daughter Zahara celebrates 8th birthday…

Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt turned 8 years old on January 8, 2013. The adopted daughter of Hollywood’s sought after actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt was born and adopted in Ethiopia, Africa at 6 months old.

Of the adoption, Sosina Yeman, a worker at the social affairs office in Awasa, said: “She was such a beautiful thing. As soon as I saw her I thought about adopting her. When I came back to the office the next day, she had already been taken. I have been thinking about her ever since, but I suppose I could have never offered her the life she will have now.” 

Zahara was mistakenly believed to be infected with the AIDS virus but future testing proved that she was in fact not afflicted and after the trip back to the United States, she was hospitalized/diagnosed for dehydration and malnutrition and not AIDS.

“Both Angelina and Brad held her and looked lovely with her. They looked like a happy family, like any other couple that comes and visits. Brad looked very comfortable holing the baby, like a proud father.”

“We are always sad when the children leave because they are our children and we love them but I know she will be going to a very good place.”– Sister Lete (Zahara’s caregiver in the orphanage) on Zahara’s new parents and her feelings once Zahara was gone.

“Those late nights are so fun when one of them’s up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something. That’s what it’s about.”– Brad on those special moments that make the craziness worth every second.

“Zahara’s got an extraordinary voice and is just so elegant and well spoken.”Angelina on her first daughter.

Khloe Kardashian puts her used bras and sexy negligees up for sale on eBay…for charity!

Khloe Kardashian launched an eBay store with husband Lamar Odom in the summer. And it seems that the reality star may now be getting a tad carried away with the website and its addictive nature. The 28-year-old has started putting items from the more intimate section of her wardrobe up for sale – including her underwear and sexy negligees.

One of the sports bras Khloe is selling is advertised as ‘pre-owned’, and on Tuesday had raked in 13 bids from happy shoppers hoping to get their mitts on the workout wear Khloe has been sweating in. Unfortunately, the brunette’s silky slips weren’t garnering quite as much attention on the site.

And perhaps Lamar will be sad to see the saucier items in Khloe’s wardrobe shipped off to the highest bidder. But fortunately, it’s all for a good cause. A portion of the proceeds from sales of Khloe’s items will go to Lamar’s charity Cathy’s Kids, which benefits underprivileged children living in the inner cities of New York and Los Angeles.

Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj sit apart during American Idol press conference…

The duelling divas Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj have revealed that their cat fighting on American Idol isn’t an act – and their latest public snipe-fest is proof.

The judges of the hit singing show were at a press conference for the Television Critics Association Winter Tour on Tuesday morning and while things started out pleasantly enough with the two stars complementing each other, the atmosphere soon soured.

When asked if their sparring was real or merely a ploy to generate more buzz about the show, Mariah, said: ‘It’s a passionate panel. The fight is what it is.’

According to the blog Vulture.com a journalist then asked the warring women to say something nice about each other. Nicki, 30, went first and said: ‘I say nice things about Mariah all the time. She is one of my favorite artists of all time. ‘To be on a panel with her, it’s kind of crazy. All the singers come in aspiring to be Mariah, in terms of talent and in terms of career length.’

Mariah apparently ‘flinched’ before replying: ‘That was a very sweet thing to say.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She’s arguably the most famous Kardashian, known for her love of glamour and killer heels. But Kim Kardashian has undergone a complete image overhaul – swapping her long dark locks for short blonde curls and even ditching her stilettos. But fans need not fear, it was all for a joke as she filmed a TV show with 90-year-old Hollywood icon Betty White giving her a make-over, or ‘make-under’ may be more of an appropriate phrase.

Kardashian dubiously lets Betty paint on some blusher and lipstick onto her face, before even letting her put a short blonde curly wig over her dark lavish locks. Showing what a sport she is the star even let Betty dress her in the same dowdy clothes that the Hot In Cleveland star was sporting for the episode.

Boston Celtics Kevin Garnett to NY Knicks Carmelo Anthony: ‘Your wife tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios!’

A raunchy reference to Honey Nut Cheerios left basketball star Carmelo Anthony anything but happy and healthy, and fueled his rage during a fight on the court, it was revealed today. Tempers flared between the New York Knicks and Boston Celtics forward Kevin Garnett during their game on Monday.

From replays of the conflict, it’s not clear what set Anthony off, but one suggestion was that Garnett insulted his wife, reality star La La Vasquez, with a reference to the popular breakfast cereal. BlackSportsOnline.com reported that Garnett told Anthony, ‘you’re wife tastes like Honey Nut Cheerios,’ citing sources that were present for the game.

After a team practice yesterday, Anthony would not say what it was that set him off. He told the New York Post: ‘There’s certain things that you just don’t say to men, another man. I felt like we crossed the line.’

A friend of Anthony’s added that the Knicks star ‘really, really had a reason’ and took a jab at Garnett, saying: ‘KG must’ve never gotten hugged [as a child], but Melo’s OK now.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Bradley Cooper reveals his desire for everlasting love like his parents… days after he splits from Zoe Saldana…

He was named 2011’s Sexiest Man Alive, has well and truly cemented his status as an A-list actor and has dated some of Hollywood’s most beautiful women.

Admitting he is a ‘romantic’ at heart, the Silver Linings Playbook star explained he wants to follow in the footsteps of his beloved parents and grandparents, and meet the woman of his dreams to spend the rest of his life with.

He told MailOnline: ‘I would say I am a romantic, for sure. I think most guys are deep down. I look at my parents, who have been married happily since 1963, and my Grandparents are the same. What guy wouldn’t want that?’

‘I think the thought of a traditional family home is awesome. Traditional roles are becoming a thing of the past, but I think there is something still really charming about them.’

The Hollywood heartthrob admitted he can draw similarities from his character in The Hangover franchise, Phil Wenneck, explaining ‘most guys’ long for family time.

Bradley said: ‘I think Phil is a romantic deep down. His bravado is that he wants the single guys lifestyle – but at the end of both movies he has just wanted to get home to his family. Lets be honest most guys want that.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian is amused by Maude Apatow’s eerily accurate impression of her…

Director Judd Apatow’s eldest daughter Maude could soon be lighting up the Saturday Night Live stage if her eerily good impression of the Kardashian sisters is anything to go by.  In a deleted scene from This Is 40, the 15-year-old accurately mimics Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian.

In the clip, Maude’s character Sadie video chats with a male friend – played by Ryan Lee – about the Kardashians. And she unleashes such a brilliant wrap about the three sisters that it’s amazing the scene was cut. One fan, is 32-year-old Kim herself who tweeted: ‘Truuuue’ with a link to the video on her Celebuzz blog with the title ‘This is so funny!’

She wrote: ‘This is so funny!! It’s a deleted scene from the movie This is 40 and Maude Apatow does impressions of Khloe, Kourtney and me!! She’s actually really good, lol! Xo’

According to her character, Khloe is the smartest out of all of them, but her nasally baby voice tends to get on her nerves… especially when she’s talking to husband Lamar Odom. Kourtney seems the most responsible, but the whole ‘Scott thing is hard. Because she loves him, but he’s clearly out of control.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Gabriel Aubry is every inch the doting father as he picks up Nahla from school… then drops her off with Halle Berry…

It has been far from plain sailing in recent months. But relations between Gabriel Aubry and Halle Berry seemed to have thawed somewhat after both were spotted spending time with their daughter Nahla in Los Angeles on Wednesday. First to make an appearance with the adorable four-year-old was the Canadian model, who picked her up from school in Beverly Hills.

First he gave the youngster a ride on his shoulders, though he had to hold onto his baggy beanie hat to stop it coming off as they walked. And then she touchingly showed him some artwork she had made during her day’s visit to her learning center. Gabriel, 37, looked all but completely healed from the injuries he sustained during his infamous scuffle with his former partner’s fiancé Olivier Martinez at Thanksgiving.

Later Nahla was spotted sharing an embrace with her Catwoman star mother, who looked in a reserved mood. A reason she may have been tense is a final decision is imminent on her bitter custody battle with Gabriel. The 46-year-old and French actor Olivier are trying to move to Paris with Nahla.

Show Review: Louis Vuitton pre-Fall 2013…

Louis Vuitton is still very much into ’60s fashion. While the fashion house’s Spring 2013 collection was light and airy, the pre-Fall 2013 collection is decidedly darker and much stronger.

Inspired by the 1968 French revenge film The Bride Wore Black, the designs have a highly seductive quality: far from the cutesy, coquettish vibe of the brand’s last offerings. Lace, leather, and fur are in abundance, adding some flair and luxury to the creations’ functional silhouettes. Visit FashionBombDaily to view the full 2013 collection…

Matthew McConaughey looks healthier as he returns to the red carpet for Critics’ Choice Movie Awards…

He dropped a staggering 40lbs for his role in Dallas Buyers Club and it seems Matthew McConaughey is steadily recovering from his extreme weight loss. The 43-year-old actor stepped out for the Critics’ Choice Movie Awards on Thursday looking more like his former self than he has in months.

The Magic Mike star, nominated for Best Supporting Actor, gave a gracious smile as he walked the red carpet in a slim-fitting tuxedo and polka dot bow tie. While his cheeks remain hollow, the actor has finished filming his role as HIV victim Ron Woodroof for the forthcoming drama Dallas Buyers Club.

That has enabled him to inch closer to his former weight, and Matthew revealed last week he was five pounds away from his target weight after adding 25lbs to his lowest weight – a frighteningly thin 135lbs. The actor lost the Best Supporting Actor nomination on Thursday night to Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Master).

But the new father, whose wife Camila Alves gave birth to their third child Livingston on December 28, seemed happy to be among the list of nominees, and as of late, more concerned about getting back to top health.

When asked if he missed his bulkier frame, Matthew recently told People: ‘I have less [physical] leverage, but my mind is way sharper… You know, I love to wrestle. It’s a good time to wrestle me now.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She is in the early stages of her pregnancy, thought to be around the three month mark. And it seems that Kim Kardashian‘s blossoming figure is causing havoc on her designer wardrobe. The 32-year-old reality star stepped out in a pretty ruffled blouse as she and Kanye West went to a meeting at designer Stephane Rolland’s showroom in Paris on Friday.

Kardashian sisters are sued for ‘stealing name’ of $6m cosmetics line from make-up artist…

Beasts of the Southern Wild star Quvenzhané Wallis (9), is the youngest actress to be nominated

Daniel Day-Lewis looks set for Oscar success after being nominated for an Academy Award for his role in Lincoln. A win would make it a hat-trick of best actor Oscar wins for the British-born star, who has already taken home Oscars for My Left Foot in 1989 and There Will Be Blood in 2007.

But the actor will face strong competition from Denzel Washington for Flight, Hugh Jackman for Les Miserables, Bradley Cooper for Silver Linings Playbook and Joaquin Phoenix for The Master. On the female front, Naomi Watts is up for The Impossible – the only British-born actress in this category – Jessica Chastain for Zero Dark Thirty, Jennifer Lawrence for Silver Linings Playbook, Emmanuelle Riva for Amour and Quvenzhané Wallis for Beasts of the Southern Wild.

British actors didn’t get a look in in either of the supporting acting categories – while Judi Dench had been tipped for a nomination for Skyfall and Maggie Smith for Quartet, neither appeared as the nominations were announced.
Instead, Sally Field has been nominated for her role in Lincoln, but is up against Anne Hathaway for Les Miserables, Jacki Weaver for Silver Linings Playbook, Helen Hunt for The Sessions and Amy Adams for The Master. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Senate APPROVES fiscal cliff deal after White House and Republicans strike agreement!!!

The U.S. Senate has voted in favor of a deal to keep the nation from falling over the fiscal cliff, with only the Republican-controlled House left to vote on the package.

The vote came about five hours after the White House and congressional Republicans struck a deal. The vote was an overwhelming 89-8 and came well after midnight on New Year’s Day.

A House vote is expected before Wednesday.

The White House-backed legislation would prevent middle-class taxes from rising, and raise rates on incomes over $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples. It also blocks spending cuts for two months, extends unemployment benefits for the long-term jobless, prevents a 27 per cent cut in fees for doctors who treat Medicare patients and prevents a spike in milk prices.

Obama blames GOP opposition to tax hikes for rich for blocking fiscal cliff deal…

President Barack Obama blasted Republican leaders Sunday for failing to rescue the economy from the looming fiscal cliff by fighting on tax increases for the wealthy and avoiding any meaningful resolutions.

In an interview on NBC’s ‘Meet the Press‘ Sunday, the president slammed congressional Republicans for waiting out the clock as the nation edges closer to the so-called fiscal cliff.

‘We’ve been talking to Republicans but they have a hard time saying ‘yes,’ Obama said Sunday. ‘They say that their biggest priority is making sure that we deal with the deficit in a serious way, but the way they’re behaving is that their only priority is making sure that tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans are protected,’ Obama said Sunday. ‘That seems to be their only overriding, unifying theme.’

President Barack Obama says he has reached out and attempted to negotiate with Republicans, but all efforts to end solve the issue has been blocked. He also added that he has met Republicans more than halfway on their demands, citing that he reduced his initial demand for revenue from $1.6 trillion to $1.2 trillion, agreed to entitlement reforms, and has already passed spending cuts such as the $1 trillion as part of the Budget Control Act in 2011.

President Obama opened his heart about the Newtown shooting massacre today, candidly telling NBC’s ‘Meet the Press’ during a televised morning interview that the tragedy represented the, ‘worst day of my presidency.’

‘The question (sic) becomes whether we are actually shook up enough by what happened here that it does not just become another one of these routine episodes where it gets a lot of attention for a couple of weeks and then drifts away,’ the president told host, David Gregory. ‘It certainly won’t feel like that to me.’

‘This is something that, you know, that was the worst day of my presidency. And it’s not something that I want to see repeated.’

Obama book ended his revelation with vows to put his ‘full weight’ behind the push for new gun control legislation aimed at avoiding another massacre of the like that robbed 20 first graders’ – and six adults – of the their lives at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut on Dec. 14.

Halle Berry scoops up her sleepy daughter Nahla after Parisian holiday with Olivier Martinez…

She spent Christmas in Paris with her fiancee, Olivier Martinez. But Halle Berry was undoubtedly missing her little girl, Nahla, during the lovers’ getaway.

The 46-year-old actress scooped up her sleepy four-year-old daughter and carried the youngster on her hip as they made their way through a New York City airport after a joyous reunion on Friday.

Halle looked tired after a long-haul flight herself, although her complexion was flawless even without a scrap of make-up. The actress dressed down in tight leather pants, a black sweater, grey scarf and black coat, while Nahla was dressed adorably in head-to-toe pink and orange striped pants.

Double Olympic gold medalist Mo Farah quizzed by customs officials in ‘terror bungle’ at U.S. airport…

British Olympic hero Mo Farah has revealed how he was quizzed by U.S. border officials on suspicion of being a terrorist. The double gold medal winner, who was awarded a CBE in the New Year’s honors list, said he was hauled before guards while entering the country for a holiday this Christmas.

The 29-year-old runner told The Sun that border guards questioned him because of his ‘Somalia origin’. The athlete even resorted to showing his Olympic medals in an effort to prove who he was.

On a previous visit to the country, Farah revealed that he was asked to leave before receiving a letter explaining that he was ‘under investigation as a terrorist threat’. Farah moved to the UK with his British-born father aged only eight.

 He said that he was taken aside by border guards while visiting Portland, Oregon, with his family on a Christmas break. The athlete said: ‘I couldn’t believe it. Because of my Somali origin I get detained every time I come through U.S. Customs.’ Visit Dailymail to continue reading…

Heidi Klum and her brood escape the LA rain for a warm Italian breakfast…

She spent Friday with her large family exploring Irvine’s Pretend City Children’s Museum. But Heidi Klum was up early Saturday with her kids exiting a massive black van in the rain for a warm Italian breakfast at Cecconi’s in West Hollywood. With her blonde hair still wet, the German 39-year-old bundled up in stylish dark skinny jeans, a long black coat, and fierce Louboutin boots.

Heidi’s seven-year-old son Henry, who’s father is pop singer Seal, displayed his favorite Avengers heroes in a grey hoodie, black track pants, and grey Uggs.
Meanwhile, six-year-old Johan was also in a superhero mood, wearing a grey Batman hooded sweatshirt.

Their eight-year-old sister Leni wore a big orange heart under her grey woolen coat, a feathered pink headband, blue jeans, and brown leather boots.

Perhaps the mother-of-four and her children dined in the eatery’s secluded Butterfly Room, named after a piece from Damien Hirst’s Butterfly series which adorns the south wall.  Not seen exiting the vehicle Saturday was Klum’s bodyguard-turned-boyfriend Martin Kristen and her youngest daughter Lou.

Mariah Carey wears impractical formal red gown and sky high heels… for family sailing trip!!!

Mariah Carey wasn’t wearing the most practical outfit. It was slippery sailing for the songstress in her glittering high heels just to cross the plank to the yacht that was taking her, husband Nick Cannon and their 20-month-old twins around Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.

Mariah, who is known for her impractical taste in footwear in spite of the conditions, didn’t disappoint this time either. Not only was the curvy star standing precariously tall in her strappy gold stilettos, but her steps seemed to be hampered by her clingy red gown with knee-high slit.

Mariah wisely took mincing steps and kept her eyes on the ground. The 42-year-old American Idol star held onto the strong arm of a male attendant as she followed Nick, who had his own hands full toting daughter Monroe in his right arm and holding son Moroccan with his left.

Mariah, who wore her superstar dark shades and sparkling earrings, was also momentarily blinded as her gorgeously straight-styled hair got blown by the strong breeze coming off the sea. Nick, of course, would probably never think to suggest his wife wear comfy pants and slip-resistant rubber-soled sneakers.

The America’s Got Talent host, 32, was dressed down in more practical black jeans, two T-shirts and tan boots. The twins were certainly getting an experience to remember as the yacht sailed around the world’s largest coral reefs. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Heavily pregnant Amber Rose treats herself to pizza as she awaits the arrival of her son…

Amber Rose has reveled in every stage of her pregnancy, and kept a very public record of her growing belly via Twitter and Instagram.

But the 29-year-old has reached that final uncomfortable (and if truth be told, seemingly interminable) end stage and looks ready to pop. She also looked a little grumpy as she took her bulk for a stroll in Los Angeles on Saturday.

Wiz Khalifa’s partner covered up in a hooded tracksuit dressing that featured matching leggings accessorized with a bright pink snap-back cap that matched her sneakers.  While it wasn’t as put together an outfit as we’re used to seeing her in; the beauty had taken the time to match her lipstick and nails to the fuchsia shade.

She was on a mission to pick up a slice of pizza, as we all know… pregnancy cravings need to be attended to immediately, especially in this fractious late stage. The celebrity couple posted a picture on Instagram showing the rapper stroking the zebra print covered belly of Amber recently.

Heidi Klum and bodyguard lover shop for New Year’s Eve with her daughters…

You imagine that Heidi Klum may well be eager to wave goodbye to 2012.
It was the year that saw the German model split from her husband of seven years, Seal.  These last 365 days have also involved the 39-year-old negotiating a new life with bodyguard Martin Kristen and trying to make the transition as seamless as possible for the four children she shares with her British crooner ex.

Kristen, of course, already had a relationship with the children having worked for the family for four years, which must have made the transition more comfortable. And the new family unit are frequently spotted together doing simple things like chores as a team.

Looking as cool as her surroundings, Lourdes, who turned 16 in October, showed off her skills a she breezed down the mountain. Dressed in an all black ensemble wore her hair in long plaits as she spent the day practicing her snowboarding.

The financier, who died from brain cancer aged 71 in November 2011, offered to bring up Krishna as long as Padma never revealed her daughter’s true paternity – not even telling the little girl’s biological father. However, he was left ‘heartbroken’ after Top Chef host Padma told her ex-lover Adam Dell that he was, in fact, Krishna’s dad after having a DNA test.

Padma, 42, had an affair with venture capitalist Adam Dell, the brother of Michael Dell, the founder of Dell computers, during a brief split from Forstmann. When it was revealed she was pregnant, a feverish stream of Who’s The Father? stories ensued. However, the striking brunette had a DNA test which revealed that Dell was the father.

Back off from my boyfriend!’ Kim Kardashian warns 90-year-old Betty White off Kanye West!!!

Betty White is pretty much THE pop culture icon for the golden oldies in the showbiz world, and now she’s met her younger counterpart in a skit for her prank show, Off Their Rockers.  White, 90, is already starring on the TV Land hit Hot in Cleveland and Off Their Rockers helped NBC win the ratings battle on New Year’s Day.

Now pregnant Kim Kardashian makes an appearance in a promo for Off Their Rockers and it ends in a comedy argument. In the video, White discovers that she’s somehow related to Kim, 32, which makes her offer up a cunning suggestion.

‘I’m just one step away from your boyfriend,’ the Golden Girl alum said. ‘You Kardashians share everything, right?’
To which Kim hilariously replied: ‘Back off, Betty.’

Betty never had any children of her own, but while she won’t be able to give Kim any pregnancy tips… having raised her three step-children, Betty should have plenty of advice to give. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Sean Paul‘s jilted ex-lover exposes ‘severe sex problems’ in bizarre tell-all ‘book’ and files $80 million lawsuit…

A scorned ex-lover of Grammy Award-winning multiracial reggae artist Sean Paul has exposed the star’s alleged ‘severe erection problems’ in a tell-all book, as she sues him for $80 million.

Swede, Susanne Persson, who brags in court documents of having long ‘Barbie hair’ and an ‘E-cup bra’ size, claims Paul ‘bribed Jamaican police’ to have her deported from the country in June 2010 – something which drove her to attempt suicide.

Getting intimate revenge, Persson filed a self-penned 120-page alleged exposé to support her Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit, in which she claims that ‘if (sex with Paul) lasts one minute, it is a good day.’ The 11-capter work, titled: ‘Irie Jamboree: My life in Jamaica as a jet set slave with the enormous secret of a love affair with Jamaica’s perhaps most well known Dancehall Artist.’ 

The cover features a childish drawing of Persson wearing a blue sari embracing a mohawked Paul, and reads: ‘The Truth About Sean Paul’s Cocaine Dealings, Lies, Murders and Erection Problems.’

Inside, she claims: ‘Ever since (Paul) started using cocaine regularly, he has had severe erection problems. If it lasts one minute, it is a good day.’ 

According to The New York Post, Persson included her American Airlines itinerary from Kingston, Jamaica, to Stockholm, Sweden, on June 24, in the court filing. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

They rang in the New Year in style after partying together in New York. But it seems that it’s back to reality for Cheryl Cole and boyfriend Tre Holloway as they packed their bags and headed to the airport on Wednesday, ready to catch a flight home.

While dancer Tre struggled under the weight of four bags as he left the couple’s hotel, Cheryl pulled along just one small suitcase, happy to let her man do all the hard work.

The lovebirds had spent the last day of 2012 watching Jay-Z and Coldplay perform at their concert in Brooklyn but looked ready to get back to their life in the UK.

The Girls Aloud star looked rather dressed up for her trip to the airport, not looking as comfortable as she could have been for the long-haul flight. Showing that she’d clearly not over-indulged during the festive period, like many other people, she wore a pair of super skin-tight leather pants and towering, sky-high stiletto boots.

Looking perfect for the time of year, the singer made sure that she was well wrapped up in a stylish navy blue coat, clinched in at the waist with a black leather belt. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

George Lucas engaged to DreamWorks Animation chairman Mellody Hobson…

Just months after selling Lucasfilm Ltd. to Disney, George Lucas is ready for another big change: marriage. The Star Wars writer-director is engaged to longtime girlfriend and DreamWorks Animation chairman Mellody Hobson, a rep for Lucasfilm, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The Star Wars creator, 68, recently popped the question to 43-year-old Mellody Hobson and his daughter Amanda took to Twitter to share her joy with the news.

Posting a link to an online article about the happy news, she tweeted: ‘George Lucas, Mellody Hobson Engaged: “Star Wars’ Director, Businesswoman Set To Marry” Congratulations Dad & Mellody!:)’

It will be the first marriage for Hobson, 43, and the second for Lucas, 68. In addition to her gig with DreamWorks, Hobson also heads Chicago-based investment management firm Ariel Investments Llc. and is chairman of Ariel Mutual Funds. Ariel reportedly is among the largest African-American-owned money management and mutual fund companies in the U.S.

Hobson is a regular financial contributor to ABC’s Good Morning America and in 2009 hosted a show on the same network called Unbroke: What You Need to Know About Money. Lucas made headlines in October for donating his $4.05 billion payday – the amount he received for selling Lucasfilm – to an education foundation.

“As I start a new chapter in my life, it is gratifying that I have the opportunity to devote more time and resources to philanthropy,” Lucas said at the time.

It is not yet known when and where Lucas and Hobson, who have dated since 2006, will tie the knot. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Gabriel Aubry officially ‘in the clear over Oliver Martinez brawl BUT must stay trouble-free for a year’…

Gabriel Aubry will not be prosecuted for his part in the Oliver Martinez brawl – as long as he keeps out of trouble for a year. According to TMZ the L.A. City Attorney had conducted two office hearings — Olivier Martinez showed up with Aubry and Gabriel, then one with just Aubry on a different day.

Law enforcement sources had revealed that the likely outcome is he will agree to take anger management classes but it appears that prosecutors believed that was unnecessary. Reports say the fight happened after Gabriel dropped his four-year-old daughter with Halle, Nahla, off at their home. Olivier reportedly followed him outside and told him ‘they needed to talk’.

After that, Gabriel is said to have pushed the French actor and then lashed out at his face, hitting his shoulder instead. In an act of self-defense, the police sources say Olivier then took three quick punches to Gabriel’s face, which resulted in the injuries and bruises the Canadian actor has been sporting since.

Ass-tastic! Multiracial singer Alexandra Burke shows off her gorgeous bikini body on holiday in Miami…

In their hit song Bootylicious, Destiny’s Child famously sung the lyrics, ‘I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly.’ But it looks like one of the R&B group’s biggest fans was more than ready to display her jelly on a Miami beach. Multiracial singer Alexandra Burke showed off her curvy physique on Thursday afternoon, and certainly gave her idol Beyonce a run for her money in the gorgeous body stakes.

Splashing around in the Atlantic ocean, the 24-year old presented a refreshing image in a winter filled with slender celebrities on the beach. But it seemed Alexandra didn’t care who was looking, even when her bikini bottoms scrunched up a little. Her confidence is not surprising when considering she could well be mistaken for an athlete.

Wearing a striped and floral bikini, the 24-year old had clearly been working out prior to the trip with noticeable tone in her upper arms, stomach and legs. Obviously, a new year’s diet definitely does not need to feature on her resolutions list. Alexandra kept her long caramel blonde hair off her face, in a top knot, with a zebra print head scarf wrapped round to keep any flyaways in place.

Taking the call perched on a chair at the Fairmont Millennium Park Hotel in Chicago, the president was apparently wished well by his defeated opponent.

The historic image was captured by the Obama administration’s photographer Pete Souza and was posted onto the official White House Flickr account for all to see.

Body language experts have had a field day with the signs that the just-triumphant president is giving off to the camera.

They claim that by perching on the back of the chair, the president is implicitly suggesting that he does not expect the telephone call to be a lengthy one. Interpreting Obama’s standing rather than sitting position, the experts have noted the two candidates frosty relationship and that the president is not sitting down to talk to his rival.

More obviously the president’s fingers are pressed to one of his ears, which may suggest that the room in the hotel is very noisy and that his re-election team have erupted in rapture. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama insists he won’t back down on taxes as Republicans in the House block cuts for middle-class…

Republicans in the House are blocking a bill that would prevent a tax increase on the first $250,000 of income earned by all Americans, President Barack Obama said last week Saturday. The Democratic-controlled Senate has approved the measure, but Obama said House Republicans have ‘put forward an unbalanced plan that actually lowers rates for the wealthiest Americans.’

Obama supports a plan to raise taxes on families earning more than $250,000. In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama said ‘the math just doesn’t work’ on the GOP plan. Obama’s comments mark the fourth time since his re-election that he has used the radio address to push for middle-class tax cuts as part of a plan to avert a looming fiscal cliff – and his most sharply partisan tone.

Obama said his plan to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans should come as no surprise to Republicans or anyone else.

‘After all, this was a central question in the election. A clear majority of Americans – Democrats, Republicans and independents – agreed with a balanced approach that asks something from everyone, but a little more from those who can most afford it,’ Obama said.

His plan is ‘the only way to put our economy on a sustainable path without asking even more from the middle class,’ Obama said. It also is the only plan he is willing to sign, the president said.

Obama’s comments came as House Speaker John Boehner said Friday there has been no progress in negotiations to avert the ‘fiscal cliff,’ a combination of automatic tax increases and spending cuts set to take effect in January. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Obama and Boehner try to thrash out deal to end fiscal cliff deadlock as Republicans set to agree to higher taxes…

President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner met Sunday at the White House to discuss the ongoing negotiations over the impending ‘fiscal cliff,’ the first meeting between just the two leaders since Election Day.

Spokesmen for both Obama and Boehner said they agreed to not release details of the conversation, but emphasized that the lines of communication remain open.

The meeting comes as the White House and Congress try to break an impasse over finding a way to stop a combination of automatic tax increases and spending cuts scheduled to kick in at the beginning of next year.

Obama met in November with Boehner, as well as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

The president spoke by telephone with Reid and in person with Pelosi on Friday.

Obama has been pushing higher tax rates on the wealthiest Americans as one way to reduce the deficit – a position Boehner and other House Republicans have been steadfastly against.

Republicans are demanding steeper cuts in costly government entitlement programs like Medicare and Social Security.

One GOP senator said Sunday that Senate Republicans would probably agree to higher tax rates on the wealthiest Americans if it meant getting a chance to overhaul entitlement programs.

The comments by Bob Corker of Tennessee – a fiscal conservative who has been gaining stature in the Senate as a pragmatic deal broker – puts new pressure on Boehner and other Republican leaders to rethink their long-held assertion that even the very rich shouldn’t see their rates go up next year.

Obama looks to use political capital in ‘fiscal cliff’ negotiations…

President Barack Obama is trying to spend what former President George W. Bush called “political capital.” That’s the good will and clout you get from a re-election victory. Obama’s predecessor boasted after his 2004 win that he’d amassed political capital and planned to “spend it” in his second term.

Obama is now trying to do the same ting, standing firm with Republicans in negotiations on averting the year-end fiscal cliff and refusing to budge on his insistence that top tax rates — not just overall tax revenues— go up in any bipartisan fiscal deal.

Clearly, his re-election win has given him more leverage.

He campaigned on letting Bush-era tax cuts expire for households earning over $250,000 a year. And polls show that if Congress can’t agree in the next three weeks and the economy goes over the “fiscal cliff” triggering large automatic spending cuts and tax increases, more voters will blame Republicans than Democrats.

Obama’s second-term agenda will be shadowed by budget woes!

Even if President Obama succeeds in getting Republicans to agree to tax hikes on the wealthy as part of a “fiscal cliff” deal, the country’s grim budget realities will still cast a long shadow — limiting his ambitions as he begins plotting a second-term agenda.

Any agreement is likely to result in less than the $1.6 trillion in new taxes over the next decade that Obama requested in his initial offer to House Republicans, and White House aides are signaling to allies that any new money from taxes would be used almost entirely for deficit reduction — not for ambitious, new spending programs or government expansions.

Where Obama entered office four years ago planning to seize a moment of economic crisis as an opportunity for transformational policies such as the $800 billion stimulus and his health care overhaul, he begins his second four years with few, if any, similarly expansive or costly prospects.

GOP activist: “Obama needs teleprompter ‘because he fried his brain on drugs!”

Cathie Adams, former Texas GOP chair, gave a pre-election speech this November claiming that a “Marxist” President Obama needed a teleprompter “because he friend his brain on drugs.”

In a presentation at a Grassroots America We The People “Call To Action” meeting Adams repeatedly referred to the president as “Barack Hussein Obama” and claimed the president was using his “green agenda” to cover his true agenda of “Marxism,” reported Right Wing Watch.

Adams went to far as to note the way Obama “glared at Mitt Romney,” and that she was so offended she wanted to “go up and just smack his face.” Concluding the address, Adams blamed the president for the struggling economy, and claimed that the legalization of marijuana as unconstitutional.

She questioned the voting to legalize the drug in Colorado: “And if we legalize it, will we empty out our jails and will we be safe for ever more? No. I’m telling you, Barack Hussein Obama has got to have a teleprompter because he fried his brain on drugs.”

Obama tells Barbara Walters that he’s ‘confident’ REpublicans will cave in on taxes in ‘fiscal cliff’ deal…

President Barack Obama said on Tuesday night that that he is ‘confident’ the Republican party will cave in on taxes and break the deadlock on a dead over the ‘fiscal cliff’. Speaking to Barbara Walters on ABC News on Wednesday, Obama said he believed that Republicans would eventually join Democrats to extend current rates for 98 percent of earners before the deadline in 19 days time.

‘I’m pretty confident that Republicans would not hold middle class taxes hostage to trying to protect tax cuts for high-income individuals,’he said.

He added ‘I remain optimistic. I’d like to see a big package. But the most important thing we can do is make sure that middle class taxes do not go up on January 1.’

But John Boehner accused the president of ‘slow-walking’ towards the cliff, as reported separately by ABC.

‘Where are the president’s spending cuts? The longer the White House slow-walks this process, the closer our economy gets to the cliff,’ Boehner said on the floor of the House of Representatives.

After the men met to discuss the economic problem on December 9, Boehner said: ‘It was a nice meeting, it was cordial, but we’re still waiting for the White House to identify what spending cuts the president is willing to make as part of the ‘balanced approach’ he promised the American people.’

Talks and counter-offers are ongoing between Obama and Boehner as they try to work out a way to forestall next year’s automatic tax increases and spending cuts that could hurt the economy.

Obama and Boehner met on Sunday at the White House. The White House then offered a new proposal lowering its proposed figure for tax revenue from $1.6 trillion to $1.4 trillion. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Diana Ross braves a broken ankle to sing for President Obama in TNT Christmas special…

Just last week, she was pushed out of LAX in a wheelchair after breaking her ankle at a party in early November.

But ever the professional, Diana Ross was in fighting form on Sunday, as she took to the stage to sing for President Obama at the annual TNT Christmas Special in Washington DC .

Still recovering from her injury, the veteran singer dressed up in a long royal blue gown complete with oversized gold pendant and earrings for the festive show.

She later changed outfit to appear onstage with the President, his wife Michelle and their daughters Malia and Sasha.

Sporting a more festive black and white gown with silver embroidery, the star performed a duet with actress and singer Megan Hilty.

And her floor length gowns successfully hid any sign of a plaster cast on her ankle.

The 68-year-old proved she is as good as her word – after previously reassuring fans she would be at the celebration.

Her spokesman told Mail Online earlier this month: ‘Ms Ross accidentally slipped and broke her ankle at the end of a show in India in November. She is fine and has been recovering. She will be performing next week for the President in Washington DC.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

First Lady Michelle Obama gives presents to children… but forgets to put on a smile!

Tugging a huge red sack stuffed with toys, First Lady Michelle Obama delivered about 900 gifts to the Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots campaign but perhaps lost in the seriousness of her mission, forgot to wear her smile.

Taking a few minutes to thank military families at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington, D.C. Mrs Obama shared how they make her job ‘easy’ in their representation of the U.S. as well as in inspiring her role in the White House.

‘The military families are what inspires my work,’ she said at the annual toy drive started by a Marine reservist and his wife. Somehow you’re always the ones who find the extra hours in the day to give back, above and beyond what life has thrown your way anyway,’ she said.

Among the unwrapped toys donated today by White House employees and American CEOs were Mrs Obama’s two daughters 14-year-old Malia and 11-year-old Sasha, according to the White House.

Mrs Obama along with Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden, started the Joining Forces campaign in 2011 to honor and support military families. Before slapping her hands together to get to work, Mrs Obama wished volunteers and service members at the military base ‘Happy Holidays.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Outrage as Gangnam sensation Psy performs for President at charity concert…

President Barack Obama has been pictured shaking hands with a South Korean rapper who sang about wanting to kill American soldiers. PSY, born Park Jae-sang, performed at a White House charity event on Sunday, despite a deeply controversial performance in 2004 that has shocked and outraged American fans.

The rapper showed off his signature dance moves while performing ‘Gangnam Style,’ which has the most watched YouTube video in history. PSY owes his popularity to his Korean pop hit taking hold among tens of millions of American fans.

However, countless fans were offended by the lyrics from an anti-American protest song he sang that included the lines: ‘‘kill those f****** Yankees who have been torturing Iraqi captives…kill them all slowly and painfully.’

The rapper, 34, apologized after the anti-American protests made national news.  Calls for PSY to be removed from the lineup of the annual ‘Christmas in Washington’ benefit at the White House, which raises money for the Children’s National Medical Center. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Michelle Obama is backing Anna Wintour as U.S. Ambassador to France…

Anyone doubting the veracity of Washington rumors that Anna Wintour, the famously icy fashion queen of New York City, will soon become a high-profile American ambassador in Europe should look no further for substantiation than the archives of Vogue magazine.

In March 2009, the magazine – ruled by Wintour as her personal fiefdom – devoted its cover and eight glossy pages inside to an interview with the new First Lady Michelle Obama alongside a fabulously glamorous set of photographs shot by legendary portrait photographer Annie Leibovitz.

The ‘Michelle Obama Edition’ hit the newsstands with the glowing headline The First Lady The World’s Been Waiting For – and transformed her public image at a stroke.

When she first appeared on the political stage, Michelle was dismissed as a slightly awkward, intellectual lawyer: an angrier, African-American version of the young Hillary Clinton. But when Vogue was finished with her, Michelle was recreated as a softly elegant global fashion icon and role model: a perfect Jackie to her husband’s JFK for a multi-racial age.

The Vogue cover was the culmination of a year of hard work by the ambitious and hard-working Ms Wintour, a committed Democratic Party fundraiser who spotted the White House potential of the Obamas when Barack was still regarded as a rank outsider. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

John McCain set to block Susan Rice nomination for Sec of State as he prepares to take-up key committee seat…

Senator John McCain has said that he will join the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, setting up a potentially explosive battle if, as expected, President Barack Obama nominates Susan Rice as Secretary of State.

McCain, the 2008 Republican presidential nominee, told Foreign Policy magazine’s The Cable blog that he would join the Senate Foreign Relations Committee while remaining on the Senate Armed Services Committee.

While the Republican leadership in the Senate insists that no decisions have been made on committee assignments, McCain’s stature and foreign policy expertise is such that he is unlikely to be denied his wish.

McCain, who finishes a six-year term as top Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee this year, said he would not challenge Senator Bob Corker for a leadership position on the Foreign Relations committee. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

School lunches to be allowed unlimited meats, grains, USDA announces…

The Agriculture Department is responding to criticism over new school lunch rules by allowing more grains and meat in kids’ meals.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack told members of Congress in a letter Friday that the department will do away with daily and weekly limits of meats and grains. Several lawmakers wrote the department after the new rules went into effect in September saying kids aren’t getting enough to eat.

School administrators also complained, saying set maximums on grains and meats are too limiting as they try to plan daily meals.

“This flexibility is being provided to allow more time for the development of products that fit within the new standards while granting schools additional weekly menu planning options to help ensure that children receive a wholesome, nutritious meal every day of the week,” Vilsack said in a letter to Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D.

The new guidelines were intended to address increasing childhood obesity levels. They set limits on calories and salt, and phase in more whole grains. Schools must offer at least one vegetable or fruit per meal. The department also dictated how much of certain food groups could be served.

While nutritionists and some parents have praised the new school lunch standards, others, including many conservative lawmakers, refer to them as government overreach. Yet many of those same lawmakers also have complained about hearing from constituents who say their kids are hungry at school. Visit Huffington Post to continue reading…

Susan Rice drops out of consideration for Secretary of State saying that partisan politics are to blame!!!

Susan Rice has officially dropped out of contention for the next secretary of state, saying that the continued partisan debate prompted her stop fighting for the post.

‘If nominated, I am now convinced that the confirmation process would be lengthy, disruptive and costly – to you and to our most pressing national and international priorities,’ she said in a statement obtained by NBC News.

A number of Republican senators- notably John McCain from Arizona- opposed her likely nomination because of her role in the administration’s handling of the attack on the American consulate in Benghazi.

Republicans took issue with Rice for failing to mention any Al Qaeda involvement in the attack on the Libyan embassy that left Ambassador Chris Stevens dead along with three others. During appearances on five separate morning shows, Rice continually said that the attack was triggered by an anti-Islam movie made in America.

‘That trade-off is simply not worth it to our country…Therefore, I respectfully request that you no longer consider my candidacy at this time,’ she wrote in the letter.

Rice had never officially been nominated to the position, which needs to be filled after Hillary Clinton steps down in January. Rice’s role as the United Nations ambassador made her the presumed candidate for the job, and President Obama’s close relationship with her all but sealed the certainty for her nomination.

‘Today, I spoke to Ambassador Susan Rice, and accepted her decision to remove her name from consideration for Secretary of State, While I deeply regret the unfair and misleading attacks on Susan Rice in recent weeks, her decision demonstrates the strength of her character, and an admirable commitment to rise above the politics of the moment to put our national interests first.’ President Obama said in a statement released Thursday afternoon.Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Madeleine Albright on Susan Rice‘s withdrawal: ‘It’s appalling what happened here!’

Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said she found the treatment of U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice by Republican senators “appalling,” arguing that her consideration to be the next Secretary of State became a “political football” that had very little to do with her actual career and record as a public servant.

“I just think it’s appalling what happened here. Appalling,” she told The Huffington Post in an interview on Friday morning, noting she had known Rice since she was 4 years old.

“I think there are many aspects to this which … are just completely fabricated and unfair, and just not the right way to treat someone who has dedicated her life to serving the United States.”

On Thursday, Rice called President Barack Obama and formally took herself out of the running to be the next secretary of state. In a Washington Post op-ed, Rice said she decided to withdraw after:

“it became clear that my potential nomination would spark an enduring partisan battle.”

“I think it was a political attack, in many ways, that had not much to do with her,” said Albright on Friday, saying Rice had become a “political football.” Visit Huffington Post to continue reading…

Susan Rice could become National Security Adviser later in Obama’s 2nd term!

President Barack Obama was meeting privately Friday with Susan Rice, the embattled U.N. ambassador who abruptly withdrew from consideration to be the next secretary of state after a bitter, weeks long standoff with Republican senators who declared they would fight to defeat her nomination.

And White House officials are leaving open the possibility Rice could ascend to National Security Adviser, a position that does not require Senate confirmation, over the next four years. Her reluctant announcement Thursday makes Democratic Sen. John Kerry, the presidential contender in 2004, the likely choice to be the nation’s next top diplomat when Hillary Rodham Clinton departs soon.

Rice may end up close to Obama’s side in another way, as his national security adviser should Tom Donilon move on to another position, though that is not expected imminently. The security adviser position would not require Senate confirmation.

Rice’s efforts to win over skeptical Republican senators in unusual, private sessions on Capitol Hill fell short. The senators emerged from the meetings still expressing doubts about her qualifications. Visit theGrio to continue reading…

Harry Belafonte: “Obama should ‘work like a third world dictator’”…

Singer and social activist Harry Belafonte appeared on MSNBC’s Politics Nation last night, hosted by Al Sharpton, to discuss the GOP and President Barack Obama’s second term.

Sharpton noted that Belafonte fought for decades for the “entitlements” the right wing is trying to do away with in order to balance the nation’s budget deficit. This includes Medicaid, social security and Medicare.

Belafonte believes that by voting for a second Obama term by an significant margin, Americans have chosen the direction that they want this country to go in.

“The American people, in their maturity, declared themselves fully,” Belafonte said. “We want what Barack Obama is talking about. We want our country to go in that direction.” Belafonte adds that he is fascinated by “corrupt people who sit trying to dismantle the wishes of the people.”

“The only thing left for Barack Obama to do is to work like a third world dictator and put all these guys in jail,” Belafonte said. “You’re violating the American desire.” Via theGrio

Tears and tributes as family and friends mourn Jovan Blecher’s girlfriend at funeral after she was gunned down by NFL star…

Friends and family crowded a Baptist church in just 40 miles outside of Dallas to say their last goodbyes to Kasandra Perkins. It had only been five days since Perkins, 22, was gunned down by her boyfriend Kansas City Chief Jovan Belcher who shot her multiple times before ending his own life.

Mourners gathered before a white casket decorated with while lilies and pink roses at the St. James Missionary Baptist Church to lay Perkins to rest.

‘It’s a very tragic circumstance, a tragic situation,’ pastor Steve Sweeney said as he offfered a prayer for God that both Perkins’ and Belcher’s family would find healing, and that their infant daughter Zoey would have strength.

Perkins’ great-uncle Ted Downing told mourners at the service that the she loved her family and above all her daughter:

Jovan Belcher shot dead girlfriend and then killed himself after she told him he was NOT the father of her baby!

Kansas City Chief’s player Jovan Belcher shot his girlfriend dead before shooting himself because she told him he was not the father of their baby daughter, it was revealed today.

The Long Island mother of the player Cheryl Shepherd said the couple argued over the paternity of their three-month-old daughter right before the murder suicide at her son’s home in Missouri.

Mrs Shepherd was in the home when her son shot Kasandra Perkins, 22, nine times before fleeing. He is believed to have kissed her dying body and their baby daughter goodbye before he left.

A source told the New York Post: ‘The mother believed that there was an issue over whether [Belcher] was the father. She said he believed he wasn’t necessarily the father of the child.’

A Kansas City law-enforcement source confirmed: ‘She told police there was a question about the paternity.’

It is unclear if the paternity issue was the reason why the rocky relationship ended in such a violent and tragic way.

The source added: ‘The implication was that paternity was what the two of them were fighting about — that the baby might not have been his.’

The couple had been receiving counseling for relationship and financial problems, police said. A spokeswoman said she would not comment on the doubts raised over baby Zoey’s paternity. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Cheryl Cole ‘suing X Factor for $2.3million’ she claims she is owed after being fired from US show!

Cheryl Cole was dropped from Simon Cowell’s talent show. The British pop star got the axe as a judge on the US version of X Factor and now she’s reportedly suing the show’s producers saying she’s owed $2.3 million in pay.

Cheryl, 29, who previously sat at the judges’ table on X Factor UK, was brought on board the American version in 2011 after signing a lucrative deal. Although the Promise This singer was let go from the show before Season One even got under way, she wants her money, more than $2 million of it, TMZ is reporting.

Cheryl claims that she signed a ‘Pay or Play’ contract with Blue Orbit Productions that assured her $1.8 million for the first season and $2 million for the second even if she didn’t appear on the program.

Furthermore, the model-author says producers promised to pay her various miscellaneous expenses for each season. These include $100,000 wardrobe allowance, $25,000 for a stylist, as well as $15,000 per month for hotel lodging in Los Angeles and $2,500 a month for other living expenses.

But even before Season One aired, the dark-eyed brunette was fired. Producers reportedly were convinced the American audience wouldn’t understand what she was saying beneath her heavy Geordie accent.

Nicole Scherzinger became Cheryl’s replacement before she, in turn, was let go and replaced by Britney Spears. Although Cheryl concedes that she was paid the $1.8 million for Season One, she says she’s still owed the $2 million for Season Two plus all that money for her various expenses.

The legal documents, filed on December 7, state: ”Plaintiffs are informed and thereon allege that it was Blue Orbit’s intention (and its practice as to other performers to whom Blue Orbit paid such allowances) to pay out these allowances as part of payroll along with other compensation.

‘The Agreement also provides that Blue Orbit is to reimburse Cole for the cost of personal security and first class airfare between London and Los Angeles for Cole and coach round-trip airfare between London and LA for three individuals on Cole’s staff.’

Ice T: “Coco made me look and feel like s***’!”

They are the happily married couple who have their own reality TV show titled Ice Loves Coco. But the seemingly blissful union between Ice-T and Coco has been rocked after photographs of the buxom blonde getting cozy with another rapper has emerged.

Dermot O’Leary and Nicole Scherzinger enjoy a pint in Corrie’s Rovers Return ahead of the Live Final…

The X Factor is gearing up for it’s ninth live final, but whilst the production team and contestants get busy with last minute preparations, Dermot O’Leary and Nicole Scherzinger took a break to visit one of Manchester’s most famous pubs.

Visiting the set of Coronation Street, the two got behind the bar of the Rovers Return and pulled themselves a pint. With beaming grins on their face, Dermot and Nicole were definitely a far cry from the normal punters gracing the traditional pub.

However, the pair looked a little at odds with each other when it came to their attire. Dermot looked ready for a ball in a black and white tuxedo, whilst Nicole was more casual yet festive in a Christmas jumper.

Tweeting about their impromptu visit, Nicole made a joke along with a snap of her and the X Factor presenter: ‘Oh just another day at the office…’

For Dermot though, he got a bit more of a treat from a flank of Manchester City and United fans creating an escort around him as he left the set. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Shonda Rhimes disses Katherine Heigl in interview with Oprah Winfrey!

Grey’s Anatomy has had some pretty sensational storylines — bomb explosions, plane crashes, mass shootings, etc. — but not all of the drama happens onscreen.

Four years ago, series star Katherine Heigl caused a bit of a stir on set when she withdrew her name from Emmy consideration because she felt she hadn’t been “given the material to warrant a nomination.” Writers on the show were reportedly miffed, and though Heigl remained on the show for two years after the incident, her relationship with series creator Shonda Rhimes always seemed strained.

Rhimes — who also created the Grey’s spinoff Private Practice and the political drama Scandal, starring Kerry Washington — recently sat down with Oprah Winfrey for an Oprah’s Next Chapter interview airing Sunday, Dec. 9, on OWN. Among the topics they covered? Heigl’s infamous Emmy snub.

“On some level it stung, and on some level I was not surprised,” the Grey’s head writer, 42, tells Oprah in a teaser for the interview. “When people show you who they are, believe them. I carry that with me a lot. It has served me well.”

Heigl, 34, left the medical drama in 2010 to pursue film projects and spend more time with her family — she and husband Josh Kelley adopted daughters Naleigh and Adalaide in fall 2009 and spring 2012, respectively — but earlier this year, she expressed interest in returning to Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital to close out her character’s arc.

Nicole Scherzinger was not impressed as she and ‘angel’ Jahmene Douglas forced to duet with ONE microphone at X Factor final!

It’s a live show, so anything can happen! And for Jahmene Douglas and Nicole Scherzinger – it did. Last night a technical error almost ruined their duet together.

Singing Whitney Houston’s Greatest Love during the X Factor final on Saturday, Nicole’s microphone broke down, forcing her to share one with her act Jahmene.

After figuring out her microphone was not working, Nicole rushed over to Jahmene and took his microphone to continue singing her part, with the two later sharing it to complete the song.

Both stars showed signs of frustration, but continued and delivered the dramatic ballad pitch-perfect. Despite the fact the two managed to belt out the song without errors, Nicole did seem upset afterwards by the technical error.

Dermot O’Leary declared: ‘This is the biggest show in the UK and we can’t afford two working mics? That’s what a live performance is all about!’

However, Nicole was not impressed, saying: ‘Well it sucks when your mic is not on, but he’s my little angel and to share the stage with him, that’s the reason that I’m here.’

Earlier, Jahmene declared his love for his mentor, saying how she always sends him messages and texts and she’s ‘the best mentor anyone could ask for’. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

X-Factor UK: Final fashion show down! Nicole Scherzinger vs. Tulisa Contostavlos…

They’ve been battling it out in the style-stakes every Saturday night for the last two months. But Nicole Sherzinger and Tulisa embraced very different looks for their final Saturday night showdown.

While the former Pussycat Doll embraced old school Hollywood glamour in a floor-length red gown, Tulisa looked fashion forward in a bespoke, black dress.

Nicole might be busy concentrating on her two final acts, but she clearly had time to get her style just right for the final Saturday night performance show, changing into three different outfits.

The US star stepped out onto the X Factor stage in the red, sparkly Zuhair Murad dress with a pair of towering Charlotte Olympia shoes. She wore her dark hair in soft waves and added a pair of statement, gold earrings.

Tulisa looked less elegant but more edgy in an avant-garde black dress, made especially for her by Suzanne Neville. The London-born singer showed off her legs and a hint of cleavage in the figure-hugging dress with sheer paneling.
She added a pair of skyscraper Prada shoes and Swarovski cuffs and rings, creating a much edgier style than Nicole. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Paris Hilton relaxes poolside with her toyboy lover… after partying at a Miami nightclub with former BFF Kim Kardashian…

They used to be best friends. But Hollywood socialites Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian fell out after the Armenian beauty’s meteoric rise to fame eclipsed her pal’s.

It seems however that the pair are ready to reconcile, as the fellow reality TV stars were spotted at the same nightclub together for the second time in recent weeks.

On Saturday the 31-year-old did not seem to be suffering any ill effects from her late night as she smiled, flaunted her toned figure and canoodled with her latest love.

The designer turned DJ and her 21-year-old lover were poolside again at Miami’s Fontainebleau hotel on Saturday after a night out.

The couple both sported identical printed hoodies in the same design as Paris’ one-shouldered swimsuit and black and white hats. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Belle of the Jingle Ball! Cheryl Cole outshines everyone at Capital FM Christmas gig…

Cheryl Cole can certainly be relied upon to spice up a Christmas concert. The star ignored the weather and went for a dramatically daring black satin jumpsuit – and not much else. And the skin-tight suit did not exactly hinder her performance at the Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball at the O2 Arena on Saturday evening, as she leaped around the stage with Girls Aloud and then performed a solo set.

The low-cut jacket, with brass button details, showed off most of her chest, and Cheryl narrowly avoided a wardrobe malfunction as she posed for photographers. With her hair pulled back into a sleek ponytail and donning sexy stage make-up, the 29-year-old Promise This hit maker made sure she stood out among the star-studded guest list.

Sizzling in the sexy jumpsuit, the star upped the glamour even more by sporting a pair of stilettos underneath the outfit. Cheryl posed solo at the gig, although she joined her Girls Aloud band members on stage, after recently reuniting for their ten year anniversary.

The star was also joined by JLS, Little Mix and The Script at the A-list Christmas performance. Though the popular girl band Little Mix were without one of their members, as Perrie Edwards was reportedly too ill to perform at the ball. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Mixed race UK: Olympic star Jessica Ennis is the ‘face of today’s Britain’…

Golden girl Jessica Ennis has been hailed as the face of today’s Britain, as figures revealed mixed race people are among the fastest-growing ethnic minority groups in the country.

The 26-year-old Olympic heptathlete, of Sheffield, South Yorkshire, is engaged to white construction worker Andy Hill, while her father Vinnie is from Jamaica and her mother Alison is from Derbyshire.

At least 1million people were born to mixed race parents, the 2011 census is expected to reveal on Tuesday – but experts believe the actual figure could be twice as much, reported the Sunday Times.

Alison Powell and Vinnie Ennis, parents of new heptathlon world champion Jessica Ennis, at their home in Sheffield, August 17, 2009

It comes as a poll by think tank British Future revealed only 15 per cent of Britons are uncomfortable with mixed race marriages – a figure which is dramatically down from 40 per cent two decades ago.

Only one in 20 people aged 18 to 24 would be uncomfortable if their child was in a relationship with someone of a different race – and they are more worried about them marrying a richer person.

‘Jessica Ennis was not just the face of the Olympics this summer,’ British Future director Sunder Katwala told the Sunday Times. ‘She could stake a fair claim to be the face of the census too.’

British Indians are expected to be revealed in the census data as the largest ethnic minority group in the country, but the figure of mixed race people has shot up from 677,000 in the 2001 census.

A British Future spokesman said: ‘When the parents of Olympic champion Jessica Ennis, who are from Jamaica and Derbyshire, met in Sheffield in the 1980s, a majority of the public expressed opposition to mixed race relationships. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Champion: The British Future survey also found only 42 per cent of people could correctly identify Jessica Ennis (pictured winning gold in the London 2012 heptathlon in August) as mixed raceBiracial glamour: Jessica Ennis is a front-runner 

Fan: “Oh my god – I can’t believe it’s Cheryl Cole!”

Cheryl Cole must be used to screaming fans when she is on stage performing.
However, the pop star’s appearance sent one woman into delirium as she left a London night club in the early hours of Sunday morning.

The woman began screaming: ‘Oh my God, I can’t believe it’s Cheryl Cole, oh my God! oh my God!’.

Cheryl’s transparent lace top, which clearly showed her black bra, did not exactly calm the crowds. The Parachute singer left little to the imagination in her sheer lace top as she was escorted from the Rose Club.

Cheryl’s brunette hair was swept back in a sleek ponytail and she kept the style going with dramatic black eye make-up. With such a daring top, it is not surprising that the star kept her lower half a little more demure with wide-leg pants and pointy nude heels.

Connie Britton explains adoption decision…

It may not have been exactly the way she envisioned starting a family, but actress Connie Britton has no regrets about her decision to adopt as a single mom.

During an appearance on The View this week, the Friday Night Lights star opened up about adopting her son Yoby last year, saying: “I lost both of my parents within three years of each other and I kind of thought, ‘What am I waiting for?’ The man will come and if I want to have my own kids I can do that, but I [knew] this was something I [wanted] to do.”

Calling motherhood a “wonderful and life-changing experience,” Connie adds that it’s even helped bring out her musical side!

“It is really true, I sing to him all the time. Poor thing practically never hears me just say a straight word. I sing everything like we’re in a musical,” laughed the doting mama. “I guess he likes it. He wasn’t able to defend himself because he couldn’t speak until just recently.” Via CelebBabyScoop.

Matt Damon: “My daughters are all about the presents!”

By blending their Christmas traditions, the holidays pay off in a big way for Matt Damon and Luciana‘s daughters.

“We do the Latin American Christmas Eve gift opening and we do the American Christmas morning gift opening,” the Promised Land actor, 42, told PEOPLE during the film’s premiere on Thursday in Los Angeles.

“We have this weird fusion for Christmas, but I think it just means more gifts for the kids, so they’re into it.”

But aside from the present palooza, Damon’s holiday plans don’t include much more than laying low with his family, including Alexia, 14, Isabella, 6, Gia, 4, and Stella, 2.

“I’m just going to hang out with my kids,” he says. “ We’ve been on the Promised Land train a little bit for the last week or so, and we’re looking forward to just settling down.”

Spotted: Halle Berry and daughter Nahla strolling on the beach!

Halle Berry and her daughter Nahla headed out for some quality mother-daughter time on Sunday, and took a stroll along the picturesque coastline of Malibu.

Four-year-old was in a playful mood and was spotted laughing along with mother as she skipped barefoot along the sand.

At one point, it seem the combination of walking and the windy weather proved too much for the youngster – and she promptly decided to lie down for a rest on the sand.

Halle was pictured giggling as she attempted to encourage her daughter back up onto her feet.

The duo enjoyed some one-on-one time together before heading to meet Halle’s fiance Olivier Martinez, for lunch.

Boxing fan Martinez and Halle Berry watch Marquez versus Pacquiao fight…

The couple were seen out and about after apparently viewing the fight, getting into their awaiting car and heading off into the night. Olivier would have surely been in his element watching the match.

The French actor has always had a passion for boxing and and was taught how to fight by his father, who was a Spanish professional boxer. The couple tried their best to go incognito during the outing, Halle keeping her head down as she made her way to the couple’s car.

A very flexible Russell Simmons, 56, hits the beach with bikini-clad girlfriend, Hana Nitsche, 26…

He’s 30 years her senior and has had plenty of younger and beautiful ladies on his arm. And after showing off his flexibility on Miami Beach on Sunday, it might be easier for some people to see why Russell Simmons is a hit with the ladies.

The 55-year-old music mogul could be seen practicing yoga and meditation with his girlfriend Hana Nitsche, 26, on the Florida sands.

At one point the father-of-two children stretched his muscles so far as he bent over, that his head touched his knees.

It seems he has some serious persuasion skills too as managed to get his Germany’s Next Top Model star beau to emulate his poses.

Appearing to jokingly mock her man, Hana giggled as she put her leg up behind the one planted on the sand and made a tree pose.

She also stretched her triceps as she pulled up her arms behind her back while sitting by the ocean following a refreshing dip in the water.

They’ve been battling it out in the weekly X Factor fashion wars for the past eight weeks.

But Nicole Scherzinger and Tulisa Contostavlos made sure to save the best until last, with each of the leading ladies stepping out in showstopping ensembles as they took to the stage at the X Factor Final 2012.

She completed her look with equally draamtic eye make-up, a pair of simple hoop earrings, while she let her ensemble do the talking by keeping her long raven locks scraped off her face into a simple ponytail.

Stéphane Rolland Haute Couture shoes and jewelry by Shaun Leane and Maria Piana finished off her finale ensemble.

Tulisa Contostavlos refused to be overshadowed by her fellow judge, looking equally incredible in a beaded floor-length gown by Hollie de Keyser.

Featuring a daring thigh-high split, and a curve-enhancing bustier top, the 24-year-old singer teamed her gorgeous dress with dazzling diamond drop earrings and simple bronze eye make-up.

Tulisa completed her final look with her dark brunette locks teased into delicate waves and swept to the side.

Nicola Roberts, 27, wore a monochrome tuxedo jacket over a tight dress and a pair of heels.

The fashionista had her hair swept back from her face, highlighting the contrast of her ombre locks. Nadine Coyle opted for a LBD with cut out detailing around the shoulders while Sarah Harding wore a sequin embellished top and a pair of tight leggings. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Stacey Dash reveals new scripted series trailer…

A few months ago, when Stacey Dash posed in a bikini while endorsing former presidential candidate Mitt Romney for president, she was slammed by fellow actresses who thought she was publicly whoring herself for attention without having a project to promote.

It seems as they were wrong as multiracial actress and mother Stacey Dash is working on a few projects.

Over the weekend, she released a trailer for a new scripted series that she wrote and co-created called ‘Stacey Dash Is Normal’. In the web series, Stacey will play an over-the-top, more emotionally conflicted version of herself who must visit a therapist in order to figure out her life.

No word yet on when the series is set to premiere, but it looks like it could be pretty funny…or pretty corny depending on your sense of humor.

Check out the trailer below:

Khloe Kardashian goes for a slap dunk as she piles on the make-up courtside…

As the wife of a basketball player Khloe Kardashian knows all eyes are on her when she goes to a game. And although she was made-up to perfection at the Clippers game the X Factor US host decided to pile on the powder and glossy ipstick courtside.

Blanket Jackson larks around as he enjoys a sweet treat after karate class…

Perhaps it was brain freeze or a sudden stomach ache. But something prompted Blanket Jackson to pull a startled face as he indulged in a post-karate ice-cream cone in Calabasas Saturday afternoon.

Accompanied by a pal and his bodyguard, the 10-year-old son of pop star Michael Jackson had literally gone from the dojo at Dawn Barnes Karate Kids directly to Baskin-Robbins. The long-haired youngster was even wearing a T-shirt bearing the school’s name, which matched his yellow belt – the second level (called Kyu) of achievement in Gozen Karate.

Blanket, born Prince Michael Jackson II, was still wearing the pants from his martial arts uniform – called a gi – and white sneakers. Not seen Saturday was his older siblings Prince, 15, and Paris, 14.

The trio, watched over by grandmother Katherine, were last spotted together riding the Jungle Boat Cruise and Splash Mountain at Disneyland over Veteran’s Day weekend.

Nicole Scherzinger on Cheryl Cole: “I don’t understand why anybody would do that”…

In her autobiography Cheryl Cole described her first meeting with Nicole Scherzinger as ‘awkward’. The Girls Aloud singer explained how she was left cringing after Nicole sang her track Promise This back to her.

Not impressed with the way Cheryl remembers their encounter Scherzinger, 34, blasted Cole making her look bad.

Speaking to Fabulous Magazine, Nicole admitted that she had not had a chance to read Cheryl’s book but wasn’t sure what to ‘believe’.

She explained that she had seen the quotes and felt the whole thing was ‘silly.’

Nicole told the publication: ‘I’d like to give her the benefit of the doubt and hope that she would only have spoken highly of me because I’ve not spoken poorly of her.’

However upset at the fact Cheryl had failed to speak well of her, Nicole went on to explain what really happened.

Snapping back, the Don’t Cha singer said: ‘No. No. The story is I met her once at The X Factor and I wanted to make her feel good.’

‘I said I’d heard her song on the radio and I think I sang the words “promise this”. But I really don’t know any lyrics after that.’

‘And then that is made out to be something else and I don’t understand why. I don’t understand why anybody would do that. It’s been blown out of proportion and it’s silly.’

In the book, entitled, Cheryl: My Story, Cole described the meeting as ‘really embarrassing’. She wrote: ‘I swear to God the woman sang the whole song, to my face.It was just so awkward.’

Cheryl likened it to performing Baby One More Time up to Britney Spears and notes: ‘Can you image how weird that would be?’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She said: ‘I’m lucky. I have a fast metabolism, I’m tall, and my digestive tract is ironclad and can really take a beating. Having been a model for 15 years, I…know a thing or two about how to dress if I’ve put on a few pounds.’

Tulisa gets straight back to the day job after X Factor final…

The X Factor has certainly raised her profile, but unfortunately the same can’t be said for her record sales.

So in a bid to promote her debut album, Tulisa got straight back on with the day job after Sunday’s X Factor final, as she played an intimate gig at the BT Tower on Monday.

Instead of taking a break after her hectic weekend, the star clearly had her career on her mind as she took to the stage to perform a number of her new tracks at the BT Infinity event.

Not looking quite as glamorous as she did the night before, the former N Dubz star wore a simple black outfit as she performed on the 34th floor of the building.

Slightly more demure than some of her other looks, the 24-year-old wore a pair of loose-fitting black pants and a modest, black satin tank top.

She added a pair of reasonably modest black heels and kept her jewelry simple, with just a plain silver crucifix hanging around her neck.

Tulisa kept her make-up simple, opting for smokey eyes and just a touch of nude lipgloss, adding to her conservative look.

She wore her glossy dark hair in waves and tied it back into a side ponytail, with a half fringe sweeping her face.

As well as tracks from her new album, Tulisa performed some classic songs including Cyndi Lauper’s ‘Time After Time’. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She is known for her eccentric wardrobe choices and now she has upped the ante by chaneling an actual musketeer. Multiracial Cher was preparing to fly out of Los Angeles on Monday and her French infantry soldier inspired get-up caused quite a stir.

The 66-year-old pop star seemed delighted with her ensemble though as she smirked to herself while sauntering through LAX.

Cher grinned at all those around her as she confidently made her way to her flight and seemed not in the least concerned that she looked like she was in fancy dress.

The all black ensemble consisted of a large musketeer style hat – made famous by French musket-wielding soldiers during the Renaissance – black leggings and a swashbuckling type black leather coat.

Her boots were also reminiscent of one of Louis XIII’s famous military men.

The I Got You Babe singer also gave off d’Artagnan vibes with her hair – the long straight locks were similar to that of the historic French hero – whose tale is best told in the classic film The Three Musketeers.

Cher accessorized with a pair of mirrored sunglasses and a glitzy metallic carry-on bag and just a hint of cleavage could be seen underneath her jacket. The headline-grabbing songstress was recently rumored to be marrying a Hell’s Angel biker 24 years her junior.

Curry spent a bit of time with his daughter before assisting his fellow teammates in defeating the ‘Bobcats’ 104-96. Although Riley fell asleep and missed most of the action, the crowd was on their feet as her dad scored several points and blocked numerous passes.

Curry’s trip to Charlotte was more like a trip down memory lane and less like an ordinary basketball game. A native of North Carolina, Curry got to visit family and friends as well as old spots in the city where he and wife Ayesha used to hangout.

“The lady who used to give me ice cream at the old coliseum is still here. She stopped me and said hi and offered me another scoop if I wanted one. … Little stuff like that makes the whole night special,” said Curry after the game.

Sister, Sister indeed! When first-time mom Tamera Mowry-Housley welcomed son Aden Nov. 12, she turned to twin Tia Mowry-Hardrict, 34, for some much-needed advice.

It’s difficult, it’s hard, and it hurts!’” Tia, whose son Cree is 17-months-old, tells me this week during ABC Family’s 25 Days of Christmas Winter Wonderland event in NYC. “I’m like ‘just stay with it. Everything will be fine.’”

‘I’m like ‘Tamera, you just have to let them pile up a little bit, and sleep when your baby sleeps, because if you don’t, you will be a walking zombie.’”

RIP! Norah Jones‘ father Ravi Shankar has has died aged 92…

Ravi Shankar, the sitar virtuoso who became a hippie musical icon of the 1960s after hobnobbing with the Beatles and who introduced traditional Indian ragas to Western audiences over an eight-decade career, has died. He was 92.

A statement on the musician’s website said he died in San Diego, near his Southern California home.  The musician’s foundation issued a statement saying that he had suffered upper respiratory and heart problems and had undergone heart-valve replacement surgery last week.

The prime minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh’s office confirmed his death and called him a ‘national treasure.’ Labeled ‘the godfather of world music’ by George Harrison, Shankar helped millions of classical, jazz and rock lovers discover the centuries-old traditions of Indian music.

He also pioneered the concept of the rock benefit with the 1971 Concert For Bangladesh. To later generations, he was known as the estranged father of popular American singer Norah Jones.

As early as the 1950s, Shankar began collaborating with and teaching some of the greats of Western music, including violinist Yehudi Menuhin and jazz saxophonist John Coltrane. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

She may be a 54-year-old mother-of-four, but Madonna certainly doesn’t seem ready to leave her raunchy side behind just yet.

Watch the long-awaited video below:

Oops! Walt Frazier refers to Kris Humphries as  ‘the Kardashian guy’ during Knicks/Nets game…

During Tuesday night’s epic game between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets, Hall of Famer and Knicks commentator Walt Frazier referred to Kris Humphries as “the Kardashian guy.”

Apparently Frazier wasn’t familiar with Humphries and questioned fellow commentator Mike Breen during the game, “Oh, that’s the Kardashian guy?”

Breen replied with, “Yes, it is.”

It seems Humphries may never live it down his 72 day marriage to reality TV star Kim Kardashian. Via theGrio

Nicole Scherzinger: ‘I’ll wear Spanx and a push-up bra to cook Christmas dinner this year!’

She is the ultra-glamorous Pussycat Doll who soared to glory on this year’s X Factor when her act James Arthur won.  Her ‘sha-mazing’ performance on the show won her countless new fans – many of whom gaped at her dazzling dresses on the show week after week.

The suck-me-in control pants have fast become the go-to garment for celebrities and regular folk alike looking to banish the bulge and avoid the dreaded VPL – and they are now set to make up Nicole’s Christmas look too.

Even slender young stars like Katy Perry, Tulisa and Kristen Stewart admit to wearing them, and everyone from Princess Beatrice to Kim Kardashian via Jennifer Lopez has inadvertently flashed a glimpse of their Spanx.

So if nothing else, Nicole, 34, is in excellent company.

 The star told Closer magazine she would be pairing her control pants with a push-up bra: ‘I’ll be wearing Spanx and a great bra to lift up those puppies!’ she said in an interview with the magazine.

‘I can’t wait to have Christmas with my family,’ she added, saying that she would be indulging on chicken, dumplings and pecan pie. There’s no diet then,’ she says. ‘I like to pig out over Christmas and work it off in January.’

‘Then I’ll go running in Hyde Park and do Bikram yoga classes. I also try to cut down on salty foods and eating late at night.’ she continued. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Woody Harrelson the surfer dude makes a splash on a break from shooting a movie…

Woody Harrelson took time off from shooting his new moving Catching Fire to brush up on his surfing skills in Hawaii. The 51-year-old actor was spotted riding waves along Oahu’s North Shore this week.

The Surfer, Dude star lives in Hawaii with his wife Laurie Louie and their three daughters, Deni, 19, Zoe, 16, and Makani, six, and surfing is one of his favorite sports.

Woody was spotted on Tuesday taking to the waves on his blue surfboard and having a marvelous time, even though it seemed he had more wipeouts than standouts. The Cheers star would paddle along on the waves and manage to stand up a few seconds on his board before falling backwards into the ocean.

Woody took it all in stride, and perhaps just hanging out with his male buddy was fun enough. The No Country For Old Men star was even caught checking out his fellow surfers – including a curvy bikini-clad brunette. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Biracial actress Cree Summer expecting baby #2…

Great news! Cree Summer is expecting her second child with husband Angelo Pullen. The delightful news came via Twitter a few days ago during a conversation with fellow actress Tia Mowry-Hardrict.

“Brave is 20 Months old and I am 7 months pregnant with her Lil sister,” tweeted Summer.

Cree recently spoke with Curly Nikki about her daughter’s natural curls and the lack thereof saying: “It’s actually very straight and very blond! My father has blue eyes, blond hair and my mother is very dark skinned. My husband is not mixed, and he’s maybe a shade or two darker than I am.”

“And here comes my very fair skinned, straight haired, gray eyed daughter! If my daughter didn’t look like him, I’d have a lot of explaining to do! It’s still early, and it looks like it’s starting to get a curl to it, but for the most part, it’s very light and very straight.”

Summer and husband Angelo will welcome their baby girl early next year. Cree has starred in several animations since leaving ‘A Different World’ over a decade ago. Via BCK.

Lala and son Kiyan get in the holiday spirit, talk Santa Claus…

La La Anthony and her son Kiyan,5, celebrate the Christmas season with candy canes and jolly hats. The reality star and her son are looking festive in their black and grey wear, posing next to a large striped pole.

La La recently gave her two cents on Santa Claus and Kiyan coming to grips with the reality of him not being real.

“My little man Kiyan is almost six years old this holiday season, which means I may only have two or three more Christmases where he believes in Santa Claus. That’s a bittersweet realization for me,” said the reality star.

“I know that finding out the truth about Santa is part of growing up, but I just love seeing his eyes light up when he talks about what ‘Santa’ left him. Will it be the same when he knows it’s just mom and dad? I guess all I can do is cherish this time while it lasts.”

Kiyan is La La and husband Carmelo Anthony’s first child together. Via BCK.

Ten love letters Mick Jagger sent to girlfriend that inspired hit Brown Sugar fetch more than £185,000 at auction…

They are the passionate love letters Mick Jagger wanted to keep under wraps. Written in the summer of 1969 to his secret lover Marsha Hunt, they reveal a tender side to the Rolling Stones singer rarely seen in public.

Jagger is understood to have made it clear to his former girlfriend that he wished to keep them private – but she had other ideas.

Yesterday, they went under the hammer for an incredible £187,250 after a three-minute bidding war at Sotheby’s.

The 10 letters, said to paint a picture of Jagger as a ‘poetic and self-aware’ 25-year-old, were written to the American-born singer while Jagger was in Australia.

In one steamy note, he promises Marsha: ‘I will kiss you softly. And bite your mouth too.’ In other letters, he is more poetic, musing: ‘If I sailed with you around the world/All my sails would be unfurled.’

Miss Hunt provided the inspiration for the Stones’ 1971 hit Brown Sugar and gave birth to Jagger’s child Karis in 1972 after a three year love affair. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

American Idol fashion faceoff: Mariah Carey outshines Nicki Minaj…

She is known as one of the biggest divas in the music industry. And Mariah Carey showed that she’s still very worthy of that title as she rocked up to tape Hollywood week for American Idol in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Surrounded by several stylists, make-up artists and assistants, the songstress made sure to trump fellow Idol judge-turned-enemy Nicki Minaj in the fashion stakes.

The 42-year-old showed off her curves in a bright red strapless gown complete with an array of glittering diamond jewels.

The Butterfly hit maker also wore a pair of skyscraper heels and held a pair of tinted sunglasses in her hands.

After getting her foundation touched up by a make-up artist, Mariah made sure all eyes were on her as she strutted into the studios.

In stark contrast, Nicki exited her car with no assistants in tow and was wearing a very casual and uncharacteristic pair of velour tracksuit pants tucked into fluffy boots.

On her top half she slipped on a matching black T-shirt and leather motorcycle jacket.

Nicki had her trademark blonde hair out in a straight style and had a signature swiping of bright pink lipstick on her lips. The two divas had a shaky start and introduction to the American Idol panel earlier this year when they had an explosive row. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Kim Kardashian wears matching outfit with sister…

They are currently filming their spin-off reality show Kourtney and Kim Take Miami. And it seems spending all that time together is having an effect on Kim and Kourtney Kardashian’s wardrobes.

The famous sisters coordinated their outfits ahead of a South Beach shopping trip on Wednesday and both opted to wear peplum skirts.

But while they chose the same shape of skirt, the similarities between the two ensembles ended there.

Kourtney, 33, looked chic by teaming the fashionable skirt, in an olive hue, with a structured coral top that boasted shoulder pads – leaving her looking like a smart businesswoman.

But her younger sister Kim, 32, naturally felt the need to make her own outfit as sexy as possible.

She wore the tight-fitting skirt in leather, her favorite fabric, and teamed it with a black crop top in order to flash some of her midriff.  Both of the reality stars completed their looks with black court shoes.

The sibling duo were seen arriving at a Sisley store to do a spot of shopping. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Nick Cannon talks Mariah Carey and premarital sex with Howard Stern…

It seems as though waiting to have sex until marriage is becoming a hit in Hollywood. The latest couple to reveal they waited until after tying the knot to have sex are Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey.

During an interview with Howard Stern, when asked how he was able to wait to have sex, Nick Cannon responded:

“It was Mariah Carey. If Mariah Carey gave a bad blowjob, I didn’t care. In my mind, I’m with it. Either way its one of the most beautiful women that ever walked the planet.”

When asked if he was nervous to feel her up after the wedding, he responded:

“I was excited. It was so different because we were jet setting and traveling and stuff [while we were dating]. So I would be back home, there would be other chicks, but this was the one woman that was like none of that is going down. I knew her values.”

Back in 2008, Mariah Carey talked about her relationship with Nick and revealed that waiting made their marriage even more special:

“It’s not that we had no intimacy, we just didn’t have complete intimacy. It’s just me, and my feelings. I definitely don’t want to push it on anybody else. But we both have similar beliefs, and I just thought that it would be so much more special if we waited until after we were married. And it was, and it still is.”

Fortunately for them, they didn’t have to wait long as they were married two months after dating.

Whites will no longer be a majority in U.S. by 2043 as Hispanic population surges, Census data reveals…

Shift: Hispanics, currently 17 per cent of the population, will more than double in absolute number, making up 31 per cent, or nearly 1 in 3 residents

White people will no longer make up a majority of Americans by 2043, according to new census projections, part of a historic shift that is already reshaping the nation’s schools, workforce and electorate.

The official projection, released today by the Census Bureau, now places the tipping point for the white majority a year later than previous estimates, which were made before the impact of the recent economic downturn was fully known.

America continues to grow and become more diverse due to higher birth rates among minorities, particularly for Hispanics who entered the U.S. at the height of the immigration boom in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Since the mid-2000 housing bust, however, the arrival of millions of new immigrants from Mexico and other nations has slowed, pushing minority growth below its once-torrid pace.

‘Moving forward, the U.S. will become the first major post-industrial society in the world where minorities will be the majority,’ Suarez-Orozco said.

‘With the white baby boomer population now leaving the work force, the most fundamental challenge will be connecting with this fast-growing U.S. group in terms of their education.’

The U.S. has nearly 315 million people today. According to the projections released Wednesday, the U.S. population is projected to cross the 400 million mark in 2051, reaching 420.3 million a half century from now in 2060. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Data: This graph shows the current racial population (green) in regard to the 2060 estimates by the U.S. Census Bureau (orange).

Iman visits the Wendy Williams show, talks fashion and 20-year marriage to David Bowie…

One of our favorite supermodels, Iman, stopped by “The Wendy Williams Show” on Wednesday to share some of the sage advice she has picked up over the years and to stun us with her age-defying beauty, of course.

The 57-year-old beauty wore a chic magenta suit, silky purple blouse and sparkly cocktail rings, all from the Rachel Zoe’s stylish, yet struggling, clothing collection. And after being sidelined from rocking heels due to a foot fracture this summer, it was nice to see the star back in her beloved stilts.

Iman told viewers that there is nothing ladylike about wearing ballet flats and that she was dying to get back into her stilettos.

“Brian Atwood are the only shoes I can wear. Who knew that something this high could be comfortable?” she said.

And while heels are a permanent part of her style arsenal, we were surprised to learn that makeup isn’t. For a woman who runs a major cosmetics brand, Iman revealed that she only wears makeup once or twice a week for meetings and interviews.

The lack of speckle doesn’t seem to bother her better half. Iman’s 20-year marriage to legendary rocker David Bowie is the stuff fairy tales are made of.

The secret behind their long-lasting love? Iman said that keeping their personal and professionals lives separate is the key to keeping the marriage intact all these years.

“We never have photographs taken in our apartment and we don’t do fashion shoots together,” Iman said. “Home is private.”

Watch Iman talk about the secret to her 20-year marriage below:

Show Review: Prabal Gurung pre-Fall 2013…

As we move into Fall, fashion collections get darker and more texture-heavy, reflecting the autumnal chill that is soon to come: well for most designers at least. With his assortment for the season, Prabal Gurung is showing that he doesn’t believe in more neutral hues for Fall, as his latest creations are as bright as they come.

The modern printmaster continues his signature patterns, taking from a bevy of inspirations including his native country of Nepal, Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 film Romeo + Juliet, and vintage ads from Versace and Versus.

All the influences are apparent from the collection’s visual beauty to the avant-garde and sexy vibe that runs through almost every look. Visit FashionBombDaily to view the full 2013 collection…

Nicole Scherzinger stuns in a fringed little black dress as she goes for sushi dinner with girl pals…

After several visits to the Japanese restaurant over the past few weeks, it’s probably safe to assume Nicole Scherzinger has a penchant for sushi.

The X Factor star hit Nobu in London again on Wednesday night, this time accompanied by a handful of female friends.

And looking as shamazing as usual, the star donned a trendy little black dress that featured fringes all over for her girls night out.

She braved the cold and opted to go tightless, showing off her toned dance legs as she made her way to the restaurant.

Nicole sported her usual smokey eye makeup and donned a pair of peep-toe stilettos to complete the glamorous look for her girls night out.

After dinner, the star continued her night with friends and headed over to The Box, making time for a quick hug with a delighted fan on the way.

And the former Pussycat Doll star is a big fan of the Japanese restaurant, as she has been spotted there many times in the past few months, often enjoying a late night sushi dinner with former X Factor judge Louis Walsh. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Mariah Carey tweets a cute snap of son Moroccan chilling out in his pajamas…

It’s become pretty common for parents to share photos of their kids on social media. And Mariah Carey is the perfect example of a mum wanting to show off her baby to the world. The singer tweeted an adorable photo of her son Moroccan chilling in his pajamas on Wednesday night.

Mariah’s 20-month old son was laid back against a pillow with his legs spread out in a comfy position. His cute Afro hair has grown considerably over the last year, and his big brown eyes could have been inherited from his mother or father Nick Cannon.

Holding onto a stuffed animal, Moroccan looked straight at his mummy behind the camera. His sister Monroe wasn’t pictured, but she may well have been in the arms of her doting dad.

The cuteness of her son, left Mariah lost for words as she shared the photo on Twitter with the simple comment: ‘Roc… what more can I say?’

With 448 retweets and counting, clearly the American Idol judge’s followers shared her appreciation. Via DailyMail

Spotted: Seal arriving LAX airport in the company of a mystery woman…

Since Heidi Klum and Seal ended their marriage, the model has already stepped out in public with a new man who just so happened to be her bodyguard Martin Kirsten.

But her British ex-husband has yet to become official with another woman.
However, on arrival in Los Angeles from London, Seal was seen with a mystery lady… and she couldn’t be more different from Heidi.

This doesn’t mean his brunette traveling partner wasn’t pretty. She had a quaint girl next door image and went make-up free for the long trip.

Wearing a black blazer, white T-shirt, grey jeans and a chunky patterned scarf, the mystery girl carried a duty-free shopping bag as she walked through customs.

Her outfit was far less frivolous get up compared to the bikini-clad girl Seal was picture with earlier in the year. The Newborn Friend singer on the other hand seemed to be taking fashion tips from pop prince Justin Bieber.

Playboy interview Matt Damon, talks career, family life and new movie!

Among Hollywood’s tiny circle of leading men, Matt Damon is considered a quiet giant. In a look-at-me industry he’s a stealth star, at least compared with Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney or Tom Cruise—free from rumors, personal spinouts and scandals.

Fiercely guarded about his personal life, wary of self-promotion and constitutionally allergic to showy moves on-screen and off, Damon is rumored to have earned as much as $20 million a film.

In the past decade he has aligned himself with such directing heavyweights as Martin Scorsese (The Departed), Joel and Ethan Coen (True Grit), Clint Eastwood (Invictus, Hereafter), Cameron Crowe (We Bought a Zoo) and Steven Soderbergh (The Informant!, Contagion and three Ocean’s caper flicks).

PLAYBOY: Since we spoke in 2004 you’ve worked nonstop, married and had three daughters, along with a stepdaughter, with Luciana Barroso, kept active politically and philanthropically and—probably most important to moviegoers—become an action star in the Bourne franchise. With Jeremy Renner starring in last summer’s The Bourne Legacy, are you officially done with Bourne?

DAMON: The thing that drove Bourne, the deepest source of his angst and anguish, what made him interesting, was the fact that he didn’t have his memory. By the end of the last one we did, he has his memory back. When he knows who he is and where he’s going, there’s not much left for me to play.

He’s just an utterly efficient machine, and when he’s in only that mode—some of us involved with those movies refer to him as “Mission: Bourne”—it’s fun to watch for a little while, but I don’t know if you can watch that for a whole movie. Visit Playboy to read Matt Damon’s full interview…

Matt Damon: “Michael Douglas was a wonderful kisser in Liberace movie!”

Marital bliss: Damon said he is ‘shi**y’ at spicing up the romance in his relationship with wife Luciana

As a family man with three children and a stepdaughter, Matt Damon was understandably nervous about taking part in a number of nude scenes for his TV movie Behind the Candelabra.

But the actor has admitted he is regularly seen in the buff in the forthcoming HBO film about the relationship between his character Scott Thorson and entertainer Liberace, played by Michael Douglas.

‘Normally I’d say no to nudity, but I just did a lot of it playing the long-term partner of Liberace,’ Damon says in a new interview with Playboy magazine. ‘I mean, it’s tastefully done. But this movie’s not going to be for everyone.’

The actor also discusses his love scenes with Douglas, and even complements him on his kissing technique:

‘Michael was a wonderful kisser,’ he laughs. ‘My concerns ended up mattering a lot less once we were filming. The dynamic between the men was complex and interesting.’

‘Liberace was very powerful and adored, a great showman making $50,000 a week doing his act in Vegas. Scott was much younger and grew up in foster homes, so there was a lot to play.’

In fact, Matt describes how the two actors thought hard about how to act out their scenes of passion.

‘We both have a lot of gay friends, and we were not going to screw this up,’ says the actor. ‘It wasn’t the most natural thing in the world to do, though. Like, for one scene, I had to come out of a pool, go over to Michael, straddle him on a chaise lounge and start kissing him.’

‘And throughout the script, it’s not like I kiss him just once. We drew it up like a football plan.’

The HBO film, which will air next year, is based on Thorson’s autobiographical book Behind the Candelabra: My Life With Liberace and was filmed over the summer. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Aisha Tyler and Shemar Moore visit ‘Watch What Happens Live’…

“The Talk” co-host Aisha Tyler and Shemar Moore were guests at the clubhouse for “Watch What Happens Live” on Wednesday evening. And things got steamy when Sweet “Aint Nobody Got Time For Dat” Brown got a lap dance from a shirtless Shemar Moore who looked like the black version of ‘Magic Mike’.

After Andy Cohen cheated on the “Gimmie Shemar Moore” ‘spin the wheel to take off clothes’ game, and the “Criminal Minds” star’s shirt came off, things got real strip-clubbish.

A shirtless Shemar Moore gave Sweet Brown a lap dance while everyone cheered him on. And hilarity ensued. Sweet Brown said:

Tulisa Contostavlos poses for Sheer Magazine: “I’m no model, but I am getting better at posing!”

Kicking off: Tulisa said although she is no model, she has got better at posing

She may say she’s no model but it’s all there in black and white as Tulisa reveals her dark side in one of her raunchiest shoots yet.

The 24-year-old positively sizzles in front of the camera in a selection of revealing outfits, showing off her slim figure and soulful attitude as she perfectly pouts in front of the camera.

And although the solo singer said she ‘hates having to stand still’, the results of her glossy magazine shoot even impressed the sometimes grouchy X Factor judge.

‘I like the images, but I hate having to stand still. I like to move around a lot and be active. Being quiet and still is a challenge for me!’, Tulisa told Sheer magazine.

She added: ‘I’m learning as I go along, I’m no model but I am getting better at posing.’

And the self-styled Female Boss said although she was more than happy to ditch some of her more colorful outfits for the Italian Vogue inspired shoot, she doesn’t let herself worry about her fashion choices.

In the interview Tulisa muses over her days with N-Dubz, saying she mainly misses the boys after a performance.

‘I like the freedom and not worrying about the boys antics and naughtiness affecting the band. Although I do miss the parties.’

And with a her self-penned autobiography Honest to promote as well as her album The Female Boss, Tulisa is getting ready for a busy Christmas and New Year. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Spotted: Cheryl Cole out and about with boyfriend Tre and fellow bandmate Nicola…

Mechanic Cheryl Cole?

Cheryl Cole may have been bang on trend in her jumpsuit as she dined out with fellow band member Nicola Roberts but her navy outfit may have been more at home on the back of a mechanic rather than a model.

Although the 29-year-old brunette showed off her slim figure in her tight outfit, she was left fading into the background as 27-year-old band-member Nicola’s bright pink cardigan caught onlooker’s eyes.

But Nicola and Fight For This Love singer Cheryl looked like they couldn’t care less as they laughed and joked leaving the central London restaurant, with Cole’s boyfriend Tre Holloway in tow, of course.

Nicola paired her bright jacket with strappy sandals and some skinny jeans while her dip-dyed blonde hair was loose around her shoulders.

Cheryl had her long brunette locks curled into loose ringlets and added some bright red lipstick to brighten up her look, finished off with some wedge leopard print boots.

Although the jumpsuit may have cinched in the star’s tiny waist because of it’s simplicity it gave the impression of being similar to a boiler suit used by mechanics.

Although her boyfriend Tre didn’t seem to mind the look as he joined the girls on their night out. He stepped out in a trendy smart casual look in pants, shoes, a checked shirt and smart grey jacket.

The dancer finished off his look with a baggy beanie hat on his head shielding him from the London chill, while he wore glasses to complete the look. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

American Idol fashion face-off: Mariah Carey outshines Nicky Minaj again…

She certainly does not enjoy being put in the shade. And notorious diva Mariah Carey seized her chance to shine when her rival Nicki Minaj turned up late to an American Idol taping in Hollywood on Thursday.

The saucy singer looked almost at her best as she teetered her way into the venue surrounded by bodyguards. The 42-year-old had certainly pulled out all the stops, and was a real show-stopper dressed head to toe in gold.

Mother-of-two Mariah reveled in showing off her meaty yet defined legs in a high cut dress, while her strappy shoes also helped to show them in the best light.

And she was able to secure all of the attention after her fellow judge and rival made the unprofessional mistake of turning up two hours late. And even then she looked like she had been dragged through a hedge backwards, wearing a particularly unflattering outfit.

The 30-year-old, who hails from the rough New York neighborhood of Queens, may have been going for a ghetto fabulous look in her Hello Kitty slippers, fur jacket jeans and hooded top.

But the move backfired spectacularly, and the producers of the show will have been left speechless by her attire. The girls managed to steal all of the attention, but the show’s other judges Randy Jackson and Keith Urban were both in attendance. Via DailyMail.

The stylish way to travel! Alexandra Burke matches her luggage with her jacket as she jets off to LA…

Fifty shades of grey: The former X Factor winner looked a little less colourful as she attended a charity event in London earlier this week

Alexandra Burke is certainly embracing the pop star lifestyle and the fashion statements that come with it. The former X Factor winner was spotted at Heathrow airport on Thursday showing off her style credentials by donning a jacket in the same fabric as her suitcase.

The singer used the airport hall as her own personal runway to show off her matching orange and black outfit by German luxury label MCM. Jetting off to LA in style, the star made sure every part of her outfit was color-coordinated.

Both the tan colored leather jacket and the luggage featured the brand’s logo – which was a favorite with rappers in the 90s – and the colors coordinated with her sneakers and quirky beanie as well.

With the long transatlantic flight in mind, Alexandra kept comfortable in black leggings and a T-shirt. The star later tweeted a picture of herself in business class seat on the airplane.

She took off the coordinated accessories, pouted and made a peace sign to her Twitter followers.

She didn’t share what she would be doing once she arrived in LaLa land, simply writing on her page: ‘And I’m off …. See you beasties on the other side …. Xxx #LABound.’

But whatever her mission is in Hollywood, it’s sure to have something to do with making music. Alexandra has been spending a lot of time in the studio plotting her way back to the charts, after her last single only hit number 33 in the UK. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Cheryl Cole gets festive in novelty knit as she joins ‘Girls Aloud’ at BBC Maida Vale studios…

It’s been hailed as Christmas Jumper Day and it seems Cheryl Cole is more than happy to embrace the festive spirit. The Girls Aloud star turned up to the BBC Maida Vale Studios in London on Friday morning sporting her own take on festive knitwear.

The singer was seen grinning widely as she walked out of her chauffeur driven car wearing an old school retro jumper.

She kept warm in the top, which had a pink, yellow and white pattern, while she finished off her cute look with a small leather skirt underneath.

Cheryl opted for tights to complete the ensemble, while her nails were still painted red from her evening out the night before with bandmate Nicola Roberts and boyfriend Tre Holloway.

Nicola appeared to be missing from the studio visit, while Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding were all in attendance. Nadine braved the cold more than her bandmates as she went for bare legs, flashing the flesh in a mini polka dot dress and heels.

Although she did keep her coat on as she made her way inside, and tied a bright yellow scarf around her neck.

Harding and Walsh instead went for pants, with Sarah going for a vibrant pair of printed bottoms with a loose black jumper and her blonde locks worn in a side ponytail. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Meanwhile, Melissa was enjoying a popcorn treat as she walked ahead of her friend as she chatted to Ben. The two thespians are set to star in a new blockbuster by Bridesmaids director Paul Feig, set to be released in April.

Spotted: Kim Kardashian attending friend’s restaurant opening in a bib!

She’s best known for spilling out of her clothing rather than spilling on them, but it seems that was exactly what Kim Kardashian feared.

Attending the restaurant opening of her best friend Jonathan Cheban in Miami on Thursday , the big-bottomed reality princess donned an odd-looking white bib over her little black dress.

However, the strange white accessory of course did not distract from her curvacious figure, which was once again put on full display by a thigh-high split.

The figure-hugging dress featured a row of buttons on the bust, and it appears Kim added the white bib-like scarf to the outfit herself in an attempt to style it up, and make sure no food was spilled on the frock.

She donned her usual pair of stilettos and appeared in full make-up, leaving her long tresses straightened and falling down her back.

The Kardashian girl was joined by her brother-in-law Scott Disick on the night out, though there was no sign of her other famous sisters. Jonathan, a BFF to the Kardashian clan, seems to have been severely influenced by his time spend jetting around the world with the super star family.

His restaurant, Sushi Misaka, is specifically designed for high-profile guests, as it only has space for 60 people and boosts its own celebrity entrance, presumably to ensure all the famous diners will not be missed by the paparazzi. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

‘It’s incredible!’: Emeli Sandé‘s delight as her debut tops iTunes best selling albums of 2012 chart…

A winners smile! Emeli Sandehas the best selling album of 2012 on the UK iTunes charts

At the beginning of the year, very few people had heard of the singing sensation that is Emeli Sandé.

But after an incredible 2012 – which saw her perform not only at the Opening Ceremony for the Olympics, but also the Closing Ceremony and most recently, the X Factor final – the star has now come out on top.

According to iTunes, her debut album Our Version Of Events was the best selling record on the site in the UK. The star was followed in the charts by Ed Sheeran and Lana Del Rey, who also managed to wow iTunes users with their music.

The biracial British singer was overwhelmed to learn she had bagged the number one spot and send out a statement to thank her fans:

‘To hear that I’m iTunes’ Artist of the Year and that Our Version Of Events was the best-selling album on iTunes this year is just incredible!,’ it read. ‘Thank you for all your support and making this year even more special.’

Emeli also picked up a Brit Award this year, as well as three Mobo Awards.
Her current single collaboration with Labrinth, Beneath Your Beautiful, also reached the number one spot in the charts. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

Twitter rolls out its own photo editing and filter features after Instagram bans its pics from being seen in tweets!

In the next salvo of an escalating war between two giants of social media, Twitter has announced new versions of its iOS and Android apps to mimic Instagram-style filters and editing software just one day after the Facebook-owned picture app completely blocked user’s ability to embed its photos in tweets.

The new Twitter app will allow users to take a pic, crop it, enhance it, run it through one of eight filters, and then share it, all without closing the app.
The filters were made by Aviary, a company that specializes in photo editing software for mobile apps.

Tech-watchers call it a defensive move against the looming giant of Instagram.
Photo filters have become wildly popular but it’s still uncertain how many users will adopt the new Twitter app as Instagram has developed its own unique identity.

Kevin Systrom, the CEO of the photo-sharing service that was snapped up by Facebook earlier this year, announced last week that Instagram has turned off support for ‘Twitter cards,’ signaling a deepening rift between two of the web’s biggest brands.

Twitter users started to complain earlier this week in public messages that Instagram photos were not displaying properly on Twitter’s website.

Clarifying the situation, Systrom later released a statement saying: ‘We believe the best experience is for us to link back to where the content lives.’ Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

The Zeynep Tosun garment boasted satin panels and quilted detail, cut out shoulders and a metal bow embellishment around her neck. Nicole teamed the dress with a pair of black peep toe heels and a snake-print clutch bag. She had her dark tresses pulled up into a tight bun. Visit DailyMail to continue reading…

‘Jack Reacher’ movie premiere…

Meeting his fans: The Hollywood A-lister signs autographs for all of his fans at the premiere

While most people covered up in coats and scarves, Rosamund Pike brought a touch of sunshine to the Jack Reacher premiere.

Not to be outdone by the wintery weather, the British star wore a canary yellow, backless dress as she hit the red carpet in Leicester Square on Monday night.

Joined by co-star Tom Cruise, the actress ensured that all eyes were on her in the floor-length Alexander McQueen gown as she posed for photographs.

Instead of opting for dark, dreary colors to match the weather, the former Bond girl fought off the winter blues in the bright, eye-catching dress.

With cutaway sides, the star must have felt the cold, but pulled off the look with confidence, showing off her tiny frame.

Looking as elegant as ever, and in great spirits, the 33-year-old smiled as she met fans and chatted on the red carpet.With her hair tied back in an elegant knot and with natural-looking, minimal make-up, the actress proved her style credentials.

Rosamund was joined by the film’s star Tom Cruise, who opted for a more casual red carpet look, ditching his usual suit.

The Mission Impossible actor wore a pair of dark blue jeans, a black jumper and a black suede jacket for the premiere of his latest action flick.

She might have had a hectic night last night, but X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger also turned out to see the new film, with boyfriend Lewis Hamilton in tow.

The singer showed off her figure in a skin-tight black dress, while her other half looked every inch the Formula One driver in a casual jacket and sneakers.

Another star of the film, David Oyelowo, looked suave in a pinstripe suit, while Angela Riseborough looked a little more demure than last night in a buttoned up sheer shirt and burnt orange suit.

The new action film, which is based on the popular books by British author Lee Child, follows a retired military policeman who gets dragged into a murder case.
