VIDEO: Victoria’s Secret Congratulates New Transformers Beauty

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Models, Videos,


It isn’t often that a lingerie commercial - with absolutely no words spoken in it - helps a model land a blockbuster film. So you can’t blame for boasting a bit.

Now that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has officially replaced Megan Fox in Transformers 3, the company is free to highlight her talents.

Oh - and in case you’re wondering how Rosie came to Michael Bay’s attention, it’s because she was featured in a Victoria’s Secret ad he directed.

Jil Sander Signs Miranda Kerr For Next Campaign

Miranda Kerr wearing Jil Sander is to be the new face of Jil Sander.

The model - who is dating Orlando Bloom - says she is keen to do a “variety” of work within her career and has recently shot a campaign for the minimalist German fashion designer.

“It’s nice to have variety in my work. I don’t ever want to feel pigeon-holed. I still have more coming out this year - a Jil Sander campaign.”

The 27-year-old Australian beauty - who has already made runway appearances for Prada and Balenciaga, taken part in an avant-garde shoot for V Mag and a cover for i-D - is thought to have shot the campaign for this autumn.

Miranda - who wore Jil Sander to last year’s Metropolitan Costume Institute Gala in New York - has previously spoken about how she tries to stay in shape for her career but does indulge in the calorific treat on occasions: “I do eat healthily and am careful with my diet but not all the time. There are times when you want that piece of fried chicken. That’s my big weakness and there’s nothing wrong with that. Everything in moderation, that’s the trick.”


Items Du Jour: Miley Makes a Match, Janet Gets Short, and Angels Get Ads

Janet Jackson cuts her hair- While her Wal-Mart lines aren’t faring well in sales, Miley Cyrus isn’t looking too worried these days, as she flashes her leopard print bra for the public while picking up some grub. While the matching prints are a bit tacky, it’s nice to see that she’s actually wearing a bra.

- Janet Jackson was spotted in London yesterday, having chopped off her locks. While I was never a fan of the Amber Rose trend, I can’t say that I’m hating Jackson’s look!

- I love Michelle Williams and I love Chanel, but when the pair were together for the after party of her film Blue Valentine‘s premiere, I fell out of love for what looked like Grandma’s satin bed sheet vengeance. Her new short hair style is killer, but not with the plain fabric wrap.

- Kate Moss have some fairly interesting ideas, but I do have to give it to her for innovation. The Topshop designer attended the unveiling of her latest collection in one of her own pieces, but she wore it backwards! She has this uncanny ability to wear anything so well that I doubt that anyone would’ve known had it not been in her line.

Model Found Unconscious After Suicide Attempt

Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Models, News,

Model Noemie LenoirComing close to following in the late Daul Kim’s footsteps, UK model Noemie Lenoir, 30, was found slumped in a forest on the outskirts of Paris after she was believed to have taken a deadly mix of alcohol and drugs.

The Victoria’s Secret and Gap model was found by her on-again-off-again boyfriend Claude Makelele, who had called emergency services that were called off when Lenoir regained consciousness, only to be found unconscious again by a passerby.

“She had clearly attempted to harm herself and had fallen unconscious. She was rushed to a nearby hospital and treated for the effects of poisoning. It seems that she had made a cry for help. She’s now in a far better condition and recovering,” said a source close to the model.

Many have come to speculate that the model’s troubles lie with her current boyfriend, Swiss millionaire Carl Hirschmann, who is believed to be involved with various extortion and sex scandals.

Model Mother Adriana Lima

Model finds being a mother is much more rewarding than her day job.

The Victoria’s Secret beauty gave birth to daughter Valentina in November and is enjoying every moment of parenthood and can’t believe the feelings of love she has for her little girl.

“The best job in the world for me is being a mum. I never thought I could love so much. I always thought, does unconditional love exist? Now I know it does because I feel it. It’s really changed me completely. I am, in my head, more mature, more secure. And, you know, it changed completely the priorities in my life. You feel so strong. It’s such a wonderful feeling.”

Alessandra AmbrosioAlessandra Ambrosio has become the new face of Moschino.

The Victoria’s Secret model will front the fashion label’s Fall/Winter 2010 campaign and will appear in a series of images which have been taken by fashion photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.

Moschino creative director Rossella Jardini said, “I have chosen Alessandra as model for the Moschino Fall/Winter 2010 advertising campaign as her Mediterranean style, mixed with her natural way of being chic, fits perfectly with Moschino.”

The Brazilian beauty gave birth to her first child, daughter Anja, in August 2008 and quickly regained her stunning figure. She recently credited her amazing body with eating lots of protein while still indulging in the occasional treat: “Lots of greens, but I love meat, so lots of protein. I have a little bit of chocolate here and there!”

As well as having a healthy diet, the 29-year-old star regularly works out with her Brazilian trainer doing the Brazilian Butt Lift, which is a mix of samba, capoeira and aerobics.


VIDEO: Michael Bay Helms Victoria’s Secret Spot

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Models, Videos, Women,


I’ve just seen ‘s future—and it involves far less than tank tops and shorts.

In this new spot for Victoria’s Secret, Transformers director Michael Bay asked a bevy of beauties to do far more “insane things” than he’s probably ever asked Fox to do. Play pool while kneeling on the table? (Ouch! Rug burns!) Walk through the desert while wearing black and heels? Stand in front of an explosion with very little protective clothing?

If Megan doesn’t start appreciating her boss soon, I’m sure there are plenty of other women who could easily do her job.

Heidi Klum Exercises With Baby Lou

Heidi Klum with baby Lou Supermodel Heidi Klum lost her pregnancy weight thanks to her baby.

The German-born beauty modeled for a Victoria’s Secret underwear show just six weeks after giving birth to her fourth child, daughter Lou, and credits taking long walks with the infant for helping her shed the excess pounds.

“In the first two weeks after the birth I did absolutely nothing. Then I started very slowly with a bit movement. We live in Los Angeles at a very steep hillside. I walked it up and down - with a baby buggy! Then I extended this subsequently to longer walks.”

As time went on, Heidi expanded her workouts but admits she prefers working out with the infant than a trainer: “Then I called my trainer Andrea Orbeck. She comes to me a few times a week. We train with weights, we do exercises with a medicine ball and much more. To be honest - it is not really fun for me. But I think it’s important for my body.”
