Celebrities and (Lack of) Fitness

You know your fitness regime needs tweaking when people constantly ask you when your baby is due… and you’re not pregnant. Right, Kate Moss? The fashionista, who became famous for being super skinny, is… well… not super skinny anymore. But, she’s not pregnant either. People just think she is because she gained some weight (gasp!) and stopped exercising. For the first time ever the 35-year-old catwalk queen is wearing a bra because, as Moss puts it, she has recently “grown breasts.” The super model also reveals that the rest of her extra pounds “went to the right places.” Consequently, she … Continue reading

Hollywood’s Winners and Losers—The Sweet Smell of Success and the Agony of Aging

Here we go again… Yet another female celeb has decided her sense for scents is good enough to launch her own perfume. Rapper turned actress Queen Latifah has become the latest star to release a new fragrance line. (Actually, her perfume won’t be in stores until next year.) I know. I know. Another celeb, another scent to be doused with as you make your way through the cosmetics department at Macy’s. The reason I decided to blog about Queen Latifah’s fragrance launch is because I was intrigued by her response to the question: “Why add one more perfume to an … Continue reading

PETA’s Worst Dressed List

If nothing else, PETA is definitely outspoken about fur wearing celebrities of which they disapprove. They released their worst dressed list recently and it is topped by the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin. PETA released their list, saying the following about Aretha: “How ’bout some R-E-S-P-E-C-T for animals? Aretha, when you waddled into the Grammys in yet another vulgar fur, you looked as if you were going to perform ‘I Am the Walrus’ by the Beatles. You might be a queen, but you don’t know jack about compassion.” Oh, did they use the term “waddled?” That is hitting a bit … Continue reading

Kate Moss’ Vibrancy Diet

Apparently, Kate Moss has parted ways with her rock and roller boyfriend and has also decided to part ways with the rock and roll lifestyle (eating whatever, whenever and sleeping every other week or so). She says she’s on a diet now. She’s calling it the Vibrancy Diet. For all my research, I couldn’t find any such diet so my guess is she chose to call it the Vibrancy Diet instead of the I-ditched-my-loser-lover-and-need-to-get-back-in-shape-or-nobody-else-will-have-me-because-I-look-like-crap Diet. So, instead of last night’s left over pizza and champagne cocktails for breakfast, she is opting for yogurt, fruit and toast. (Not bad choices for … Continue reading

Who Says It Doesn’t Pay To Be Beautiful?

Apparently the bulk of the money I spend at Victoria’s Secret goes to pay their models. At least that is what I have surmised from glancing at Forbes.com’s list of the world’s richest models. The top grossing catwalker rakes in a cool $33 million a year. That honor goes to Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen. Leo’s ex (and Tom Brady’s current flame… at least until Friday) blows away her leggy competition when it comes to making money. Frankly, I was a bit shocked by the fact that Bundchen made more than Kate Moss (who came in at No.2) and Heidi Klum … Continue reading
