Rihanna: I Don’t Dress Daringly for Attention
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Clothing, Style, Photos, Paparazzi Photos,
Rihanna insists she doesn't dress daringly for attention.
The "We Found Love" singer hit the headlines earlier this week when she donned a see-through black top and no bra. But despite the controversy, the 24-year-old singer insists she doesn't dress to shock - she just wears what she feels comfortable in, even if it leaves little to the imagination.
"Dressing is always so spontaneous, it always depends on the mood, plus the occasion, plus your little badass daring touch that I like to put on my outfit every time. I don't do things for the response or for the controversy. I just live my life. The clothes that I like and the clothes that I'm attracted to sometimes are sheer, sometimes are bold, sometimes they're very daring. I'm okay with buying a sheer shirt, because if I bought it sheer, that means I was okay with you seeing through it. Someone else might wear it with a bra, someone else might wear it with a tank top, someone might wear it with booby tape, someone might wear it with none, and I happen to fall in that category."

Seann William Scott Getting Married
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Engagements, Weddings, Rumors,
Seann William Scott is marrying model Lindsay Frimodt.
The American Reunion actor proposed to the Victoria's Secret beauty on Valentine's Day, this February.
"Seann asked her to marry him on Valentine's Day and she said yes," a source close to him said.
The 35-year-old star may be reprising his role as womanizing, sex-obsessed Steve Stifler for American Reunion - the fourth film in the American Pie series - but has distanced himself from the hard partying character in real life.
"I have a girl in my life. I was never really able to take advantage of being an actor, because I was always too shy to talk to girls," he said.
Seann also admitted many fans of his iconic alter ego are upset when they realise he is nothing like him: "I walk down the street and someone's like, 'Hey we'll buy you a shot.' And I'm like, 'No, I'm OK.' They're so crushed, like 'What? But you were in American Pie.' I say, 'It's a movie.'"

David Beckham Talks Like an American
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Celebrity Babies, Style,
David Beckham is starting to talk like an American.
The British-born footballer - who moved to Los Angeles with wife Victoria in 2007 to play for LA Galaxy - admits he is losing his London twang.
"I catch myself calling my kids 'dude' every once in a while, so there are a few words creeping in. And using American words like elevator instead of lift," he said.
Since departing the UK, 37-year-old Victoria has left behind her Spice Girl roots and forged a successful career for herself as a fashion designer. And according to David, their sons Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, nine, and six-year-old Cruz have inherited their mother's sense of style:
"They're at the age when they want to wear their own things. You've got the oldest, Brooklyn, and he'll wear his soccer shirts and a T-shirt. Romeo is the fashion one, so he'll go in and pick up skinny jeans and a vintage T-shirt and a funny hat. Cruz loves Justin Bieber, so anything he's got Cruz wants, like the big high-tops with skinny jeans. They all have their own style."
Olivier Martinez Confirms Halle Berry Engagement
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Engagements, Style,
Olivier Martinez has confirmed his engagement to Halle Berry.
The 46-year-old French actor - who met Halle on the set of Dark Tide in 2010 - has finally gone public with their plans to marry.
Asked about the engagement, he said, " Yes, of course it's true."
Speaking ahead of the opening of his new restaurant, Villa Azur, in Miami on Saturday, he also set the record straight about who designed the New Year's Eve actress' emerald and yellow gold ring. Jewelry designer Gurhan claimed to be the brains behind the ring in a statement to People, but Olivier says it was actually created by Parisian jeweler Robert Mazlo - who he says has been making jewelry for, "kings and queens for many centuries."
"There is a jeweler taking credit for doing the ring and it's a lie! They have nothing to do with this," he explained, talking to the Miami Herald newspaper.

Christina Hendricks Borrows Mad Men Clothes

Christina Hendricks borrows clothes from the Mad Men set.
The 36-year-old actress says playing office manager Joan Harris in the 1950s drama has helped boost her own sense of style and she sometimes can't resist taking home some of the outfits rejected for her character.
"I have certainly learned silhouettes from Joan. I wear a lot more pencil skirts and things like that - I realize they look good on everybody. Sometimes there are dresses that Joan doesn't end up wearing and every once in a while I will borrow one for an event," she said.
However, Christina insists her personal style is a little more reserved than her character's: "I like to sort of be 'put together.' I've actually been a fan of being a bit more covered up than Joan. I've always believed that's a sophisticated and sexy look."

Tommy Hilfiger has been hired as an image advisor for American Idol. In the newly-created position, the 60-year-old fashion designer will be charged with developing the style of each contestant.
"I will look at where they were, where they are today and the possibility of where they could go, because I don't think their image will evolve without some trial and error. 'We need to take into consideration their ages, color preferences, sizes, what types of music they will be performing, what they wear on their feet and how they wear their hair. There is going to be a real package put together on each person."
Talking about his decision to take on the role, he told WWD, "I thought it would be exciting and challenging and different, a place where I could use all of my experience in fashion and music. If you look at what makes a star, it's not only musical talent, it's the complete package. And that includes image. If you look at great superstars from Michael Jackson to Madonna and Lady Gaga and Katy Perry today, they each have a unique style and that adds to their persona. It's the icing on the cake."

Ashley Olsen Won’t Act Again
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Child Stars, Where Are They Now?,
Ashley Olsen is unlikely to ever act again.
The 25-year-old star - who made her acting debut aged just nine months alongside her twin Mary-Kate in Full House - hasn't appeared in a film since 2004's New York Minute and has no plans to return in front of the camera.
"We worked non-stop until we were 18. Then we decided to take a break and go to school - and that was when we decided to question whether we would carry on in entertainment. It was time to step behind the process. I wanted to work on other things. It doesn't mean I'm not interested in Hollywood, I like the way it operates and the people who are involved and the sense of possibility. But if I ever do get back in, it's not going to be as an actress."
Though Mary-Kate has made some film and TV appearances since New York Minute - including an eight-episode stint in Weeds - she also thinks it "felt right" to step away from acting.
"It just felt right to move away," she said.

Kanye West Upsets Royal Family
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Parties,
Kanye West has upset Britain's royal family.
The rapper was reportedly the subject of a number of complaints from unspecified members of the monarchy who were infuriated by the star playing his music too loudly in his $4,300-a-night suite at London's Lanesborough Hotel - which is near Buckingham Palace - where he has been living with members of his entourage including Common, Pusha T and Big Sean.
"We went to London and we were right next to the Buckingham Palace and the royal family. There were members of the royal family staying below us. Kanye had rented out the top floor and we was banging that b***h out. Every room was a studio. The royal family below were complaining like, 'We got all this loud-ass rap music above us and weed smoke.' They paid all this money and you don't expect to get these kind of complaints," Kanye's protégé Big Sean told The Sun.
Despite the complaints, Kanye hasn't spent all his time in the hotel. Last month, he joined in the Jack the Ripper tour, which takes place in London's East End area and retraces the footsteps of the notorious and still unidentified serial killer from the late 1800s.

Jessica Simpson: How I Knew I Was Pregnant
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Pregnancies, Style,
Jessica Simpson found out she was pregnant thanks to pre-cocktail "guilt."
The 31-year-old Fashion Star mentor - who is expecting her first-born with fiancé Eric Johnson - admits she was overcome by bad feelings as she prepared for a drinking session: "We were going to have an all-day drinking binge. Going to ride our bikes, hang out ... do naughty things. But I started feeling this overwhelming guilt. Why would I feel guilt at the idea of going out and having cocktails with my friends?"
A pregnancy test confirmed her suspicions, and Jessica is expected to give birth to a baby girl this spring.
But the Dukes of Hazzard actress is praying her daughter inherits her sense of style: "I swear I will croak if she asks me for a pair of Nikes instead of Christian Louboutins! Eric is so athletic. We're going to have this athletic girl and I won't even be able to take her shopping."
Prince William’s ‘Deeply Romantic’ Wedding
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Weddings, Child Stars,
The wedding of Britain's Prince William and Duchess Catherine was "deeply romantic."
Actress Sophie Winkleman - who is married to William's cousin Lord Fredrick Windsor - was very impressed with how well the couple coped tying the knot in such a hugely public way: "I don't know how it managed to capture the feeling of amazing love when it was such a stunningly impressive global occasion but it did. It really was deeply romantic."
Despite her husband's regal background, Sophie insists her spouse's family have been very "welcoming" towards her: "When I went to my first formal occasion, I was definitely wobbly, but the whole family has been very welcoming and warm. And let's face it - all families are pretty complicated."
Sophie admitted she feels "saved" by fashion house Armani as she can always rely on their creations when she has to attend formal events: "Armani saved me. Very fashiony things I can't cope with and I don't know if they suit me, but classic stuff tends to work. Armani clothes are beautifully cut and vey imaginative in their own way but they don't wear you."
