Cameron Diaz Thinks That Anyone Can Have Her Body

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty,

Cameron Diaz insists "everybody" can have a body like hers.

The 41-year-old actress is renowned for her slim and toned figure and she believes it isn't hard to achieve so long as people look after themselves properly: "Everybody can have my body. Everybody can have exactly my body but it is going to look different. It's about having the internal knowledge of that body and teaming it with the proper nutrition and fitness to have the body you're supposed to have."

Cameron singled out her friend Gwyneth Paltrow as the perfect example of how good a person can look when they take care of themselves. "Gwyneth is perfect proof of how you can maintain your natural beauty," she said.

However, the Iron Man 3 star has had some help from her pal. "I did turn her onto my bikini waxer in LA," Cameron admitted.

Helena Christensen Isn’t Worried About Aging

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Health & Beauty, Models,

Helena Christensen doesn't see herself as a "great beauty."

The 44-year-old supermodel hates being complimented for aging well because she thinks it's more important to lead an interesting life:

"Why would I suddenly go, 'Oh, gosh, now I'm a year older. Now I'm 35, now I'm 37...' I didn't think about it when I was in my twenties and I'm not thinking about it now. For a start, you never see yourself as a great beauty. And you look at yourself every day, so it's not like you suddenly go, 'Oh my God, my beauty is fading!' and hide behind curtains for the rest of your life. I mean, my grandmother is 95 and she's super-beautiful and really interesting, and I talk to her every three days for about 45 minutes, and those are often the most interesting conversations I can have for weeks."

Nicole Kidman Confesses to Botox Use

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News,

Surprise! Nicole Kidman has confessed to using Botox.

The 42-year-old actress has previously denied using any cosmetic treatments to stop the appearance of any wrinkles, but now Nicole admits to trying the procedure but says it wasn't for her.

"I've tried a lot of things, but apart from working out and a good diet most things don't help. I even tried Botox but I didn't like how my face looked afterwards. Now I don't use it anymore - and I can move my forehead again!" Kidman is quoted as telling German magazine TV Movie.

The mother-of-three has always insisted she is "completely natural" and owed her youthful looks to taking care of herself: "To be honest I am completely natural. I have done nothing to my face or anything. I wear sunscreen, I don't smoke and I take care of myself, and I am proud to say that. Anybody can do anything to themselves - I don't judge - but personally I believe in being physically fit. That's how I was raised. I can't go in the sun because I'm fair-skinned. It was a nightmare when I was younger but it has its benefits now."

Helen Mirren’s Beauty Advice

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty,

Dame Helen Mirren holds her stomach in to make her look good. The 65-year-old actress is often applauded for her toned midriff and says the secret behind it is to make sure she’s breathing in at all times.

“Holding your tummy in is another trick for making you look and feel good. I don’t know why, but I do, by nature, hold my tummy in.”

Although she has been happy to strip off in many movies, Helen admits she’s not entirely comfortable with her body and dresses to flatter it: “Bits of my body are all right, but bits of me are horrible. To be honest, anything from the waist down I don’t really like. Four-inch platforms give you great height and make your legs look unbelievably long. I used only to be able to get them in stripper shops, but now you can buy them everywhere - although, unfortunately, that means everyone else has discovered the trick too.”

The Oscar-winning actress also hit out designers who don’t cater for older women.“My big complaint is, why aren’t more dresses made with sleeves? I don’t want to wear a frumpy jacket over a sleeveless dress and it enrages me that it’s so difficult to find anything beautiful with sleeves. If you think of Elizabethan dresses or turn-of-the-century fashions, there are some amazing things you can do with sleeves, so why do so few designers put them on their dresses?”

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Sales,

Elle Macpherson admits that she really loves underwear.

The supermodel, whose lingerie line Elle Macpherson Intimates is the biggest-selling range in the UK and her native Australia, says she has is obsessed with matching lingerie sets as she believes they are essential to looking good.

“It’s a real fetish for me, always has been. You name it, I have it. I have more than 50 sets of lingerie. Good lingerie really changes the shape of your body under clothes so your hips, waist and breasts look the best they can. It’s the underpinning of everything. And it’s just beautiful to put on a matching set of lingerie. You feel beautiful and sexy.”

The 47-year-old beauty also says she doesn’t worry about getting old because it’s something she can’t do anything about: “I can’t stop time. I just feel really appreciative that I’m so strong and healthy. I ran this morning for six miles, I do yoga and waterski and I’m nearly 50. My body’s fared me well.”

Erin O’Connor to Continue With Catwalk

Age is nothing but a number for Erin O’Connor, who has no plans to retire from the catwalk.

The 32-year-old beauty wants to carry on down the runway for as long as possible as she doesn’t think age has anything do to with a model’s ability to pose for the cameras.

“I hate that idea of retirement or ‘You’re past your sell-by-date.’ That is very odd, because, for me, it is about moving, showcasing and being an outrageous poser.”

Erin says she absolutely loves being in the fashion industry and finds being on the catwalk liberating: “You’d think after 15 years I would be bored, but I’m not. The catwalk is like liberation, because there is a bit of performance involved, a bit of skill thrown in, so it doesn’t matter what age you are.”

Now she is one of the more experienced women in the fashion industry, Erin recently set up the Model Sanctuary, which offers respite and a full-time nutritionist to very young models, as she knows they need help when starting out.  “These are really young people. They don’t always realize that they need to set their own boundaries.”

Erin O’Connor Was Pressured to Undergo Plastic Surgery

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Health & Beauty, Models, News,

English model Erin O’Connor claims was told she needed cosmetic surgery in order to succeed.

The supermodel, who is known for her striking facial features, was originally criticized about her looks and was told she would have to go under the knife for a breast enlargement operation and nose job if she wanted to be a top model.

“In the early days of my modeling career, I think the industry was uncomfortable with how strikingly different I was. For example, I was told to have a nose job and get my breasts done.”

However, the 31-year-old beauty is thrilled she vowed to ignore the negative comments: “I suddenly got very stubborn and thought, ‘Well, no. This is me,’ and suddenly I was being hailed as ‘a new form of beauty.’”

The 6’ 1” tall model is now worried about the increase of people undergoing surgery to improve their self-confidence:

“I am concerned about ageism and the loss of beauty - the perception that as you grow older, you ‘lose your looks’, which I think is diabolical. I worry about how accessible cosmetic surgery has become. Of course, if it has genuinely helped people and their confidence has grown as a result, who am I to form an opinion? But I think there are better routes to confidence than trying to freeze time.”

Alec Baldwin Thinks About Plastic Surgery, Too

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Rumors, Men,

While it’s obvious that women of all ages—no matter how gorgeous—talk plastic surgery, actor Alec Baldwin doesn’t quite rule out the trend nor fear his age, either.

“I’m not saying I wouldn’t do something! I intend to do something. I probably will. Let’s put it this way: I wouldn’t rule it out because… You don’t think I wake up every day and wish I looked like this and this and this? But I can’t let that bother me.”

Considering he’s 51 and hasn’t gone under the knife just yet (at least, that we know of…), I would say that he’s doing pretty well on his own. Granted, he’s no Robert Pattinson, but the guy has aged better than some of his fellow peers (Mickey Rourke, anyone?).

And hey, he’s got some assets he still admires! “I have a great ass, if I may say so. That’s a part of my body that needs no surgical enhancement or rearranging.”

Baldwin’s female It’s Complicated co-star, Meryl Streep, has a different opinion on cosmetic enhancements: “Well, if you’ve ever even contemplated that stuff and looked at what can go wrong in any of those magazines, it’s terrifying! Every part of your life is chronicled, [so] if something mysteriously looks better, [everyone will notice].”

Vanessa Williams Seeks Natural Look Despite Botox

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities,

Although she admits to having Botox injections, Vanessa Williams is keen to ensure that she still looks natural.

“Look, I’m 46 years old, but I’m still in the game. I work hard at it. I need to look good. But I asked a lot of questions first about Botox. I told the dermatologist that I don’t want to be frozen. As an actress I need to have expression in my face. But it doesn’t hurt,” the Ugly Betty star told the South Florida Sun Sentinel newspaper.

The actress is currently working alongside the manufacturers of Botox Cosmetic, which is donating $250,000 to the Dress for Success campaign. The non-profit organization aims to help disadvantaged women succeed in the workplace.

“They came to me with this great opportunity to combine awareness with non-profit. We’ve got a licensed dermatologist and we address women’s issues and any questions they have about Botox,” Williams told RadarOnline.

Vanessa, who uses Botox to help slow down the aging process, also adds exercise and healthy eating to keep her looking and feeling great. “I want to maintain the way I look as opposed to looking different. I need to look natural because I’m in front of a camera all the time,” she explained. “Do I get nervous about getting into a bikini? Of course! I break into a cold sweat! And the older you get, the more terrifying it becomes!”
