	Melissa McCarthy has revealed designers refused to make a dress in her size for the Oscar awards in 2012.

	The Bridesmaids star, who has just created a line of plus-size clothing for women, admits a number of high-profile designers snubbed her request for the glamorous event.

	"Two Oscars ago, I couldn&#39;t find anybody to do a dress for me. I asked five or six designers - very high-level ones who make lots of dresses for people - and they all said no," the star said in the July issue of Redbook.

	Despite being busy with her new fashion venture, the 43-year-old actress has also been juggling her family life, and admits her marriage with Ben Falcone couldn&#39;t be better: "We have a great marriage." The couple, who tied the knot in 2005, haven&#39;t let their high level of fame change their relationship because the most important thing to them is their two daughters Vivian, seven, and Georgette, four.

	Madonna is being sued over her fitness brand.

	The "Hung Up" hitmaker has been accused by beauty and fashion company Hard Candy of maliciously stealing their name to sell exercise DVDs and apparel and the firm have filed a lawsuit in federal court for trademark infringement and unfair competition.

	The case claims the 55-year-old singer began selling her goods under the Hard Candy name in 2011 despite a previous rejection from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. "Defendants&#39; actions have caused and will cause Hard Candy, LLC irreparable harm for which money damages and other legal remedies are inadequate. Unless Defendants are restrained by this Court, Defendants will continue and/or expand the improper activities alleged in this Complaint and otherwise continue to cause great and irreparable harm and injury to Hard Candy, LLC," federal court papers obtained by RadarOnline.com state.

	The lawsuit also targets Madonna&#39;s manager Guy Oseary, but claims the "Material Girl" singer is "the driving force behind the infringing activity, taking credit herself for the initial selection and subsequent expansion."

	Gisele Bundchen has been named the new face of Chanel No. 5 perfume.

	The Brazilian supermodel will take over from Brad Pitt to front the scent, and has been filming an advert with Baz Luhrmann to promote it in Sagaponack, New York state.

	According to WWD, Gisele was chosen to represent the brand because of her "natural beauty and modern femininity." After initial filming last week, the model will film further shots in New York City.

	Baz is also no stranger to directing adverts for Chanel No. 5 as he previously helmed a 2004 campaign for the fragrance featuring Nicole Kidman. Victoria&#39;s Secret beauty Gisele, who has two children - Benjamin, four, and 17-month-old Vivian - with her husband, NFL star Tom Brady, may be an internationally famous model, but she&#39;s not afraid to muck in and clean out the chicken run at her home in Los Angeles. "I have a beautiful garden where I raise chickens. We have very little waste because the chickens eat all of the vegetable scraps, and anything they won&#39;t eat, I put in my compost pile with the chicken poo," she explained.]]></description>

	The Brazilian supermodel will take over from <a href="http://movies.gearlive.com/movies/tag/brad+pitt">Brad Pitt</a> to front the scent, and has been filming an advert with Baz Luhrmann to promote it in Sagaponack, New York state.</p>
<p>
	According to <em>WWD</em>, Gisele was chosen to represent the brand because of her "natural beauty and modern femininity." After initial filming last week, the model will film further shots in New York City.</p>
<p>
	Baz is also no stranger to directing adverts for Chanel No. 5 as he previously helmed a 2004 campaign for the fragrance featuring <a href="http://movies.gearlive.com/movies/tag/nicole+kidman">Nicole Kidman</a>. Victoria&#39;s Secret beauty Gisele, who has two children - Benjamin, four, and 17-month-old Vivian - with her husband, NFL star Tom Brady, may be an internationally famous model, but she&#39;s not afraid to muck in and clean out the chicken run at her home in Los Angeles. "I have a beautiful garden where I raise chickens. We have very little waste because the chickens eat all of the vegetable scraps, and anything they won&#39;t eat, I put in my compost pile with the chicken poo," she explained.</p>]]></content:encoded>

The retired soccer star - who recently launched a new swimwear range for H&amp;M - still isn&#39;t used to seeing himself fronting brand campaigns in next to nothing and neither is his mother, Sandra. When asked about whether he gets used to seeing himself on giant billboards, he told ShortList magazine, "I don&#39;t think so. Especially not when I&#39;ve got my mum calling me up saying, &#39;I&#39;ve just seen another huge billboard of you in London - just you, in your underwear.&#39;" Although at first David - who has children Brooklyn, 15, Romeo, 11, Cruz, nine, and Harper, two, with wife Victoria - was embarrassed by the prospect of allowing the world to see him half-naked, he has grown used to it, but he was left red faced in New Jersey during the Super Bowl where there were millions of posters of himself all over the city: "But it is what it is. At first I was like, &#39;Oh my God I&#39;m sat there in my underwear and everyone around the world can see it.&#39; This year at the Super Bowl it was ridiculous.

	Taylor Swift is being sued by clothing brand Lucky 13.

	The "Love Story" singer counts 13 as her favorite number and sells T-shirts with "Lucky 13" written on them through her online store, but Robert Kloetzly who owns Lucky 13 clothing - which has been trading since 1991 - feels she is stealing his business.

	In a lawsuit lodged today, Robert accuses the singer of trademark infringement for unauthorized use of Lucky 13&#39;s branding, and claims they have contacted her people numerous times with no resolution. In court documents seen by website TMZ, Robert describes Taylor as a singer who likes "fast cars and dangerous men who drive them inappropriately," which is the same demographic as his company targets. It also cites the star&#39;s music video for "I Knew You Were Trouble" because it "depicts stylish, attractive, tattooed individuals in provocative situations," much like Lucky 13&#39;s branding.

	Victoria and David Beckham wore matching outfits to the Met Gala in New York City last night.

	The 40-year-old fashion designer and her former soccer star husband, 39, both arrived at the star-studded charity event at New York&#39;s Metropolitan Museum of Art wearing cream-colored outfits and posed happily for the cameras.

	The former Spice Girls star - who has four children with her spouse - wore a stunning floor length gown, while her husband, who retired from soccer last year following a stint at French club Paris Saint Germain, paired his black bow tie and trousers with a cream suit jacket. And the couple had a great time at the annual event, with Victoria later tweeting, "So much fun tonight at the #MetGala Thank u team VB, amazing dress!!! I love u all x [sic]."

	Meanwhile, "Drunk in Love" singer Beyonce was seen dropping a ring she was wearing on her right hand on the red carpet. Her husband, "Holy Grail" rapper Jay Z, swooped in to pick it up and stage a fake proposal, which the mother of his 2-year-old daughter Blue Ivy happily accepted.

	Adam Levine has dyed his hair platinum blonde.

	The Maroon 5 frontman, 35, took his Twitter account Saturday night to announce that he&#39;s ditched his natural brown locks for an eye-catching peroxide blonde style. The hunky star posted a picture of his new look, with his fiancee Behati Prinsloo looking over his shoulder, which he accompanied with the caption, "Apocalypse prep course complete [sic]."

	However, it appears Adam has received some negative feedback on his new image as he later tweeted, "I hope people understand that when they say my hair looks creepy i take that as the highest compliment [sic]."

	Meanwhile, Adam and Behati have been busy planning their wedding after the singer popped the question last July in Los Angeles after a year of dating.

	Kelly Osbourne is "disgusted" by the backlash against Kim Kardashian&#39;s Vogue cover.

	The Fashion Police host doesn&#39;t think readers have the right to criticize the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and her rapper fiance, Kanye West, who front the latest edition of the magazine, after stars like Sarah Michelle Gellar have threatened to cancel their subscription to the prestigious publication.

	In a blog post titled "MY THOUGHTS ON KIM AND KANYE ON VOGUE," she wrote: "People are even going so far as to cancel their subscriptions or bloggers [are] taking down the link to Vogue magazine. I don&#39;t want to even go into the awful things people have said about them. I find this disgusting. Regardless of whether or not you think Kim and Kanye are worthy enough [to] be on the cover ... it&#39;s not your decision to make. I do believe that would be up to [Editor] Anna Wintour."

	Kelly urges fans to "be happy" for Kim and Kanye, who have nine-month-old daughter North together and are expected to wed this May.

	Joan Rivers has blasted Lena Dunham for embracing her curves.

	The Fashion Police host accused the Girls creator and star of "sending a message out to people that it&#39;s OK to stay fat and get diabetes" by refusing to conform to Hollywood&#39;s super skinny stereotype. Speaking to Howard Stern on his Sirius FM radio show, the 80-year-old comedienne advised the 27-year-old Golden Globe-winning star, "Don&#39;t let them laugh at you physically. I&#39;m saying if you look the way you look Lena, that&#39;s fine and you&#39;re funny, but don&#39;t say it&#39;s OK that other girls look like this, tell them to try and look better."

	Janelle Monae doesn&#39;t want to dress sexily.

	The "Tightrope" singer feels her voice should be the main focus of people&#39;s attention when they are watching her perform, rather than her body.

	"There are no women who perform fully clothed - still to this day there aren&#39;t. To me, that was a problem, to say &#39;If you want to be in the music industry, you need to be able to sell sex&#39; ... I want to be in control of my body. I don&#39;t ever want a man or a woman to tell me to dress that way. I think its up to me."

	Janelle, 28, also said she never takes too long thinking about her stage costumes, favoring black suits, because worrying about her wardrobe interferes with her creativity. "If I have to think about my outfit for longer than, like, two minutes, I&#39;ve wasted my time. Who wants to think about, &#39;What am I going to wear to this performance?&#39; I need to be focusing on creating, changing the world," she told Britain&#39;s Marie Claire.]]></description>

	Jennifer Aniston says Justin Theroux "hijacks" her beauty products.

	The 45-year-old star admitted her fiance has become obsessed and always tries to borrow her things to make himself look as good as possible, and she finds it "hysterical." Speaking to E! News, she said, "It&#39;s hysterical. What product doesn&#39;t he try to hijack? He&#39;s good to his skin, that&#39;s for sure. It&#39;s always, &#39;What are you using, what is that?&#39; It&#39;s cute."

	The We&#39;re The Millers actress admitted she has had to put her sunbathing days behind her after not taking enough care of her skin. "The sun, I feel, is like my friend I&#39;ve had to say goodbye to," she said ruefully. "I was terrible as a kid. It was baby oil [that she rubbed on her body]... I mean, we all did it."

	Jennifer recently insisted she was feeling "better" than ever lately, becoming a lot more comfortable in herself.

	Anna Wintour thinks that Kim Kardashian has "real guts."

	The Vogue editor, who previously had a frosty relationship with the reality TV star despite being close friends with her fiancee Kanye West, claims she decided to put the Keeping Up with the Kardashians beauty on the cover of the magazine&#39;s April edition because she admires Kim&#39;s "strength of character."

	In her editor&#39;s letter for Vogue&#39;s Shape issue, the cover of which features the "New Slaves" hitmaker with his arms around Kim, who is wearing a strapless Lanvin wedding dress, the fashion icon, 64, writes, "There&#39;s barely a strand of the modern media that the Kardashian Wests haven&#39;t been able to master, and for good reason. Kanye is an amazing performer and cultural provocateur, while Kim, through her strength of character, has created a place for herself in the glare of the world&#39;s spotlight, and it takes real guts to do that."

	"People always say &#39;Why do you have thin models? That&#39;s not what real people look like,&#39; but nobody really wants to see a real person looking like a real person on the cover of Vogue... I think Vogue is a magazine that&#39;s about fantasy to some extent and dreams, and an escape from real life... People don&#39;t want to buy a magazine like Vogue to see what they see when they look in the mirror. They can do that for free... I get fed up with having to deal with the question of why are models thin, that sort of bores me."

	"People always say &#39;Why do you have thin models? That&#39;s not what real people look like,&#39; but nobody really wants to see a real person looking like a real person on the cover of <a href="http://fashion.gearlive.com/chicdish/tag/vogue">Vogue</a>... I think <em>Vogue</em> is a magazine that&#39;s about fantasy to some extent and dreams, and an escape from real life... People don&#39;t want to buy a magazine like <em>Vogue</em> to see what they see when they look in the mirror. They can do that for free... I get fed up with having to deal with the question of why are models thin, that sort of bores me."</p>

	John Mayer has sued a man for selling him fake Rolexes.

	The "Who You Love" singer spent a total of $5 million on what he believed to be a collection of authentic luxury watches from dealer Robert Maron - a friend of Charlie Sheen - back in 2007, but was shocked to find one of the timepieces was a replica when he sent it off for repairs three years later.

	According to TMZ, Mayer returned the watch and was given credit to buy another but now wants a refund for $656,000 he spent on seven other watches which Rolex have told him are counterfeit.

	Maron is a "watch dealer to the stars" and that&#39;s how he met and got close to Sheen, who has even used him as his manager and "media adviser."

	Rolex is one of the world&#39;s most prestigious watch brands, with the coveted timepieces ranging anywhere from $5,000 with the most exclusive designs costing upwards of $500,000.

	Lupita Nyong&#39;o used to pray for lighter skin.

	The Kenyan actress received the Best Breakthrough Performance Award for her role in 12 Years A Slave at Essence&#39;s magazine&#39;s seventh annual Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon yesterday and accepted it with a speech telling how she overcame being "teased and taunted" for her "night-shaded skin."

	
		"My one prayer to God, the miracle worker, was that I would wake up lighter-skinned. The morning would come and I would be so excited about seeing my new skin that I would refuse to look down at myself until I was in front of a mirror because I wanted to see my fair face first. And every day I experienced the same disappointment of being just as dark as I was the day before."

	North West has been banned from wearing designer clothes until she is older.

	The eight-month-old tot&#39;s parents Kim Kardashian and Kanye West may be notorious fashionistas - with the rapper starting a separate career as a fashion designer - but she isn&#39;t going to be wearing anything too chic until she&#39;s grown a little more.

	"[North] has not actually worn anything designer yet. Kids get dirty, she&#39;ll spit up. She moves around so much. I saw this one cute dress that was $500, and I was like, &#39;Absolutely not!&#39; I just want her in little onesies or leggings," Kim told People.

	Kim, 33, has previously shown off a number of designer items which have been set to her for North since her birth, but at the moment she&#39;s fine dressing her hand-me-downs from her older sister Kourtney, who has 20-month-old daughter Penelope. "Despite what it looks like on Instagram, my daughter is not spoiled at all. Kourtney saves everything from her daughter, and gives it to me. I tried to put North in a faux fur vest, but she hated it. She doesn&#39;t mind headbands [that don&#39;t] pull her hair," she added.]]></description>

	Winona Ryder once wore a $10 dress to the Oscars.

	The Girl, Interrupted star is an avid bargain hunter and lover of vintage clothes, and is also not afraid to recycle outfits she has previously worn to events. "Most of my wardrobe is vintage and I&#39;ve worn dresses to the Oscars that I got for $10. At Sean Penn&#39;s last Haiti gala I wore this vintage dress that I&#39;d worn to a film premiere in 2005. I know that&#39;s kind of a no-no in the fashion world, but why wear something just once if you love it?" she told Red magazine.

	The 42-year-old actress rose to fame in the mid 80s while she was still a teenager and had continuing success in her 20s, which she says made her 30s hard, as her young looks meant she didn&#39;t always get picked for the roles she wanted: "My early thirties were rough. I went through stuff that I would have gone through, and probably should have gone through much younger, but I had spent my twenties working. Even when I was the right age for older roles, people thought of me as being younger. It was tough because I&#39;d had so much success in my early twenties."]]></description>

	As we all wait in anticipation to see what Dior design Jennifer Lawrence will flaunt at this year&#39;s Oscars, the fashion house has held fans over by offering up their latest campaign starring the actress in the meantime.

	Like her Dior last campaign, the ads featuring Lawrence are minimal; unlike her last Dior campaign, she actually looks like herself (although it&#39;s obvious that her torso either isn&#39;t pictured or blatantly covered up). Naturally, she looks stunning in all of them (catch the rest after the jump!) and easily sells both of the bags featured in the photos - although if the black-and-white headshots are supposed to sell their make-up, I&#39;m not quite sold on that considering how bare face she appears to be.

	Vogue darling Rihanna is set to launch her own fashion label soon.

	While the singer has kept a tight lip about details concerning her upcoming line, she has spoken about the large part style played in the success of her music career: "It&#39;s not all down to my voice... There&#39;s people with way more talent than I when it comes to singing; bigger voices. But people want to know who you are. Fashion is a clear indication, a way to express your attitude, your mood."

	Having previously worked on collections for both Emporio Armani Underwear/Armani Jeans and River Island - not to mention how fashion designers Alexander Wang, Tom Ford, and Peter Dundas have praised her fashion choices - the 26-year-old has already made some headway into the industry.

<p>
	While the singer has kept a tight lip about details concerning her upcoming line, she <em>has</em> spoken about the large part style played in the success of her music career: "It&#39;s not all down to my voice... There&#39;s people with way more talent than I when it comes to singing; bigger voices. But people want to know who you are. Fashion is a clear indication, a way to express your attitude, your mood."</p>
<p>
	Having previously worked on collections for both Emporio Armani Underwear/Armani Jeans and River Island - not to mention how fashion designers <a href="http://fashion.gearlive.com/chicdish/tag/alexander+wang">Alexander Wang</a>, Tom Ford, and Peter Dundas have praised her fashion choices - the 26-year-old has already made some headway into the industry.</p>
