Did Kate Gosselin Catch The Fame Bug?

Now that Kate’s dancing career is over when she was voted off from Dancing With The Stars, Kate is looking forward to spending more time with her 8 kids. Kate has gone on numerous interviews stating how she was forced to find work after her spit with husband Jon Gosselin enable to support her 8 kids. Kate said on her interview that going back to being a nurse was not an option because she will not be able to make ends met with a nurse's salary. Her only option is television, which is why Kate agrees to do Dancing With The Stars. Kate is highly criticized for her actions because she is spending more time away from her kids than ever before. Kate would fly back to see her kids for a couple hours just to find herself flying back to Hollywood for her “job”. Many believe that Kate has caught the fame bug and is using the good mother label to pursue her personal career in film. Kate is also reported looking for houses in LA in the range of 8 million and above and moving to Hollywood would be more convenient for her so she doesn’t have to travel far to be with the kids.

Justin Bieber is single ladies!!


While promoting his new album “My World 2.0” Justin Bieber spoke to Japanese Television. He stated that he "is single right now." He also says that since he travels a lot, it's difficult to have a relationship, but "maybe in the future. Whatever happens, happens." Justin may be single but he has something to be happy about.

All these symptoms already have a name, it’s called BIEBER FEVER. Funny but catchy.

Oversized Frame Sunglasses *Hollywood Style*


Victoria Beckham never leaves home without her oversized sunglasses. Large sunglasses have been in fashion for several seasons and by the looks of it, they are here to stay. Not only are big sunglasses super fashionable, but they protect your eyes from the sun's harsh rays better than smaller sunglasses. Make your outfit complete and wear a pair of oversized sunglasses that fits your face and your style. If you have a round face Wear rectangular oversized sunglasses. Pick a wider frame that covers the broadest part of your face in order to make that beautiful face look its best. If your face is square choose round or oval oversized sunglasses. Reduce a strong jaw line and angles with a pair of big sunglasses. To soften a diamond shaped face like a square face, try oval or round oversized sunglasses. The diamond shaped face has high cheekbones and a narrow chin and forehead, make your diamond face really sparkle with some diamond encrusted sunglasses that will turn heads. For those that are lucky enough to have a oval shaped face you can wear anything! Lucky you. Remember when shopping for sunglasses to make sure they have good UVB/UVA protection.

Wearing a Romper

So to get us started I will explain what a romper is. A romper is a one-piece short suit that usually is sleeveless or has short-sleeves and is mostly self-belted. Celebrities like Nicole Richie, Jessica Simpson, Mischa Barton, Charlotte from 'The Like' and Lindsay Lohan are all fans of this style. Here are the Do’s for wearing a romper; Do wear Hair in loose, beachy waves. Natural makeup and Bare legs. Do keep accessories to the minimal. Oversized sunglasses, a long dangly necklace and a braided belt (if you're romper isn't self-belted) should do the trick. DO wear Canvas wedge sandals or leather ballet flats. Remember a simple, non-matching totebag in any material should do the trick for a good look.

Really Spencer?


Spencer Pratt needs no introduction when he is the main target for paparazzi and gossip hungry. Spencer was spotted bashing Kate Hudson for her new boob job. Let’s do some catching up to this week's conspiracy about Kate Hudson. It was reported that Hudson has gotten a breast augmentation when her double-a cup size breasts appeared slightly larger. Mind you Kate's cup size is still fairy small compare to others who have done a breast augmentation, however her publicist has yet confirmed or denied this rumor. With that being said, Spencer tweeted on his page “How is it possible to get breast implants and still not have breasts. Kate H-get ur money back” if that wasn’t enough Spencer continues with “I gotta guy who will hook you up!” This is coming from the husband of a plastic surgery gone wrong patient. Have you seen Heidi lately? So before you cast the stone of judgment Spencer, take a closer look at the piece of plastic you call your wife. It’s understandable that Spencer would like to bash on celebs, seeing that it’s the closest thing he can get to being near them, just to mention their name should be an honor and privilege to both Spencer and Heidi. What a match made couple to annoy us all!

"I Do" - Vera Wang


“Love don’t cost a thing”, but weddings sure do if you want to walk down the aisle. Things just got easier for all the brides to be and future brides because Vera Wang signs on to design a bridal collection for David’s Bridal. Vera Wang is a designer and a fashion icon in the bridal gown industry. The cost of one of her couture wedding gown will do some damage to your bank account. Vera has yet to decide what she will call her bridal collection but with prices under $1,500, I don’t think any future brides or bridesmaid will care what the collection is called. The collections also include bridesmaid dress, accessories, and shoes. The first collection will arrive at all David’s Bridal stores in Spring 2011, so save the date on those calendar girls! If you ever dream of walking in a Vera Wang dress on your special day, take advantage of this opportunity. Feel like a celebrity just like many of Vera Wang A-lister who also chose Vera for their special day. Just to name a few because the list is endless. Donald Trump daughter Ivanka Trump’s style Vera for her special day in 2009 with hubbie Jared Kushner. Jennifer Lopez in 2004 to Marc Anthony, Sharon Stone and Jessica Simpson.

Why we love Lady Gaga?


Why we love Lady Gaga? Because shes willing to deface a $5000 Hermes bag!! We love Lady Gaga because she expresses the love for her fans in the oddest ways. Lady Gaga arrived at Tokyo's Narita Airport carrying a Hermes Birkin, she had neatly penned some Japanese characters on her pure white Birkin with black marker pen. The script roughly translates to "I love small monster, Tokyo Love." She scrawled the same message on her arm. She dubbed her fans “little monsters” and de. All this odd behavior is a real expression of who she is, and we love it.

9th Time’s The Charm?

What is it about Larry King that has women flock to his feet? Is it his career success? Is it his charm and personality? Or is it because he’s worth over $144 million dollars? Whatever the reason is, women seem to just shower him with interest. News broke this week that our notorious lady’s man had filed a divorce with his 8th wife of thirteen years Shawn Southwick. Allegation of his divorce spread like wild fire especially when infidelity was thrown in with this divorce. It seem like the cheating man in Hollywood is being expose one by one. Soon to be ex wife, Shawn Southwick accused King of having an affair with her own sister Shannon Engemann. Although Shannon and King denies the allegation and Shannon personally stated to TMZ “I did not have an affair with Larry. He’s been like a father to me.” With that being said, people close to the family said that Larry spent over one million dollars on Shannon including a luxury car Larry purchased for her (Shannon) which cost $160,000. So which part of “till death do us part” does Larry fit in? Is there no sanctity to marriage anymore?

American Idol Recap

Last night on American Idol, the result brought sadness to followers everywhere as Katie Steven was sent home, what was truly shocking was when Andrew Garcia, who was everyone's favorite pick since day one, was voted off. The journey has been long and hard for all contestants but it felt like it was a little too soon for Andrew to be leaving AI this early on the competition. We all had high hopes that Andrew out of all the contestants would make it to the final round but it looks like not everyone agrees. Fans everywhere is saddened by the news but is optimistic that this is a great opportunity for Andrew to sign on a record deal now that he’s off American Idol. Andrew is also listed on the American Idol tour coming up and I’m positive this won’t be the last we time we hear about Andrew. As for Katie, she’s still young and very talented; there will be many opportunities ahead for a talented songstress like her.

Now that the lazy days of winter are gone we can all get back to showing off our legs. However we can’t do that without the help of a trusty razor. My favorite is Gillette Embrace Disposable Razor. Remember, when picking out a shaving cream, don't choose cheap men's cream; a shaving lotion is much better for your skin as it will hydrate your skin and help prevent nicks and cuts. Don’t want to spend more money? Use your conditioner for a moisturizing shaving cream.
