10 curvy celebrities we love

By Elisabeth Edvardsen on January 4th, 2013

If brains are the new sexy for men, curves are the new sexy for women. With the resurgence of 50s fashion, perfect for voluptuous, feminine shapes, it’s great to see more and more women embracing their hips, boobs and bums. Don’t hide under an unflattering oversized jumper. Invest in pencil skirts and wiggle dresses. If you don’t notice a difference in the way you look, be sure men will…

Should you need any more reminding of why you should celebrate your curves, just take a look at these curvaceous celebrities.

Spring/Summer 2012 Hair trends: Dip Dye

By Andrea Petrou on June 18th, 2012

Dip Dye hair has moved on since it last made a key appearance on our barnets a few years ago, with this season being mainly about subtlety.
Darker roots and ends in a similar lighter hue have become a key look, waving goodbye to the old blonde and black contrasts.

Beyonce, Alexa Chung and Rooney Mara have all been spotted channelling this new trend with brown locks, fading to a lighter, dark blond end, while Gwyneth Paltrow went for a blonde top head with brown ends.

Jessie J and Demi Lovato however, took this trend to the next level incorporating bold colours such as pinks and purples, to their locks.

Trend Alert: Purple- as seen on Katy Perry, Emma Watson, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and more

By Andrea Petrou on June 12th, 2012

Purple has become a hot colour to be seen in this season.

Prada made it a key hue on its Spring/Summer 2012 catwalk, while Marc Jacobs and Burberry also paid homage to this colour in their collections too.

And celebrities have been quick to adopt this colour for their red carpet and everyday looks.

Lady Gaga opted for a dark purple mini dress for a trip to the Far East, while Emma Watson incorporated this colour into a marble effect dress at the MTV Music Awards.

Katy Perry went for lilac for her red carpet dress at the Billboard awards, while Beyonce brightened up her black dress with a touch of purple fringing.

By Andrea Petrou on May 8th, 2012

Hollywood’s elite stepped out last night to celebrate the Costume Institute Benefit Gala at the Metropolitan Museum.

Sporting the big, almost flamboyant frocks, were Beyonce, who went for a sheer black lace number with a blue feathered train, and Florence Welch who went for a three tiered sequined dress. They were joined with this trend by Scarlett Johansson who went for a pale pink sequined bodice and netted skirt.

Going for a simple white frock were Ashley Greene and Amy Adams, while Cameron Diaz went for a slinky silver number.

However our best dressed ladies of the evening had to be Alexa Chung, who went for a leather frock over a secretary style blouse, Rihanna who opted for a slinky black animal print dress, and Gwyneth Paltrow who went for a short silver futuristic number.

Pregnant Beyonce bans Christmas TV

By Andrea Petrou on December 21st, 2011

Beyonce Knowles’ house is a “no-TV zone” over the festive period.

The ‘Halo’ hitmaker is currently expecting her first child with husband Jay-Z and the couple are both so busy during the year that they prefer to focus on quality family time over Christmas rather than relaxing in front of the TV.

Beyonce said: “I will be with family. We are both so busy throughout the year that Christmas is just a time to relax with family and count the many blessings in your life.

“Christmas Day is a no-TV zone. We just like to sit and talk together as a family.”

Although she refused to reveal what she will buy her husband, the singer can’t wait to purchase lots of gifts for their unborn baby.

She said: “I can’t say, it has to be a surprise! Seriously, though, we both keep seeing super-cute stuff for the baby, so I am sure even our presents for each other will involve the baby in some way!

“Also Kelly [Rowland] has been so busy buying gifts for the baby, I think she might forget to buy for me this year! She is always seeing cute gifts for the baby in London.”

Beyonce feared people would guess she was pregnant before she announced it

By Andrea Petrou on November 21st, 2011

Beyonce Knowles was terrified people would realise she was pregnant before she was ready to announce it.

The ‘(Run the World) Girls’ hitmaker and her rapper husband Jay-Z are expecting their first child together in February and while Beyonce revealed the good news at the end of August, she was sure people would guess her secret when she played a series of concerts in New York earlier that month.

Speaking at the New York screening for her new concert DVD ‘Beyonce Live at Roseland’, she said: “The whole time I definitely was thinking, ‘Everyone knows, everyone can see.’

“When you’re pregnant, it’s a little bit harder to breathe, so it was hard doing all the choreography and singing at the same time.”

Although Beyonce managed to keep her pregnancy a secret until she was ready to reveal it, her Destiny’s Child bandmate Kelly Rowland recently accidently let it slip that the singer is expecting a little girl.

She said: “I’m so happy for my sister and her husband. They’re so happy in this moment right now, as they should be. They’ve made a little bundle of love, I’m so excited for them.

“I have no idea what I’m going to buy Beyonce at the baby shower because Jay is going to buy that little girl every single thing possible. She won’t be spoilt but she will be very well looked-after.

“I’ll be on hand for babysitting duties and I’m actually very good with messy diapers!”

Beyonce Knowles is not nervous about being a mother.

The 30-year-old singer is expecting her first baby with husband Jay-Z – who she married in April 2008 – and feels “blessed” that everything in her personal life is going well.

In an interview with new! magazine, she said: “It’s going really well, I am so happy with everything right now.

“I am not nervous because I know it’s happening at the right time. I felt I got married at the right time for me, and now we are having the baby at the right time. I feel like we didn’t rush anything, and now we are being blessed with everything naturally.”

Beyonce has also praised Jay-Z – whose real name is Shawn Carter – describing him as her “best friend” and says she can always rely on him for support in every part of her life.

She said: “He is my best friend, and I am so blessed to have him as my husband. We have been together since I was 20, and he is my rock during everything.”

By Andrea Petrou on October 12th, 2011

Taylor Swift has been named Billboard magazine’s Woman of the Year.

The 21-year-old singer is the youngest person ever to receive the award which has previously been held by performers including Beyonce Knowles, Reba McEntire and in 2010 Black Eyed Peas singer, Fergie.

Bill Werde, Billboard’s Editorial Director said: “Taylor has shown the power of good songwriting with music that has transcended genres, and we’re thrilled to acknowledge all of her successes over the past year by presenting her with the Billboard Woman of the Year Award.

“At the young age of 21, Taylor has already made a major impact on music and has been an incredible role model for aspiring singers/songwriters and young women everywhere. I look forward to watching her career continue to flourish in the years to come.

The annual event, now in its sixth year, celebrates the most powerful and talented women in the music business, coinciding with the publication of Billboard’s Women in Music Power Players list.

Spotted at the VMAs: Zoe Saldana, Beyonce, Katy Perry and more

Whether you watched the VMAs on Saturday night or not, it’s always fun to have a peep at what the stars wore to one of the USA’s biggest A-list events.

Katy Perry, who came away smiling like the cat got the cream with three awards, went through more than one outfit change but our absolute favourite quirky Katy look for the night has to be the girlish Eastern-style powder blue chinoise dress, which looked cute and cartoonish with her pink hair and a matching pastel-coloured parasol.

As we all now know, Beyonce glowed with new-baby happiness all the way down the red carpet in a sizzling one-shouldered, draped orange maxi with her hair swept to one side, vintage-style. We loved her chandelier earrings too – pure 70s Halston glamour. Meanwhile, our favourite home-grown talent Adele also rocked a look from a different decade as she went for a clinging black midi-dress with huge 60s hair and makeup. Perfect.

Katie Holmes sassed it out on the red carpet with expertly teased waves and a black lace skater dress and tan suede wedge boots, while poor old Jessie J still looked sexy and upbeat despite her crutches in a jewelled black corset-body and a pair of white jewelled Bebaroque tights.

The top 5 wealthiest celebrity couples

In fifth place: Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart

Forbes have just released a “who’s who” rich list of the wealthiest celebrity couples in the world – and we have to say we weren’t surprised to find out that the supermodel Gisele and her husband Tom Brady are the richest couple in the world. Gisele, who’s already on record as the highest-earning supermodel in the world, earned an impressive £27million last year while her footballer hubby earned £18million, giving them a total amount of £46million. Blimey.

Coming up in second place was the gorgeous Beyonce with her rapper hubby Jay-Z. The rapper made £22million from his music while Miss Sascha Fierce made about £21million through fashion and music, meaning that the couple together made about £43million last year.

Of course no rich couple list would be complete without Hollywood’s most beautiful couple, Brad and Angelina, who as a couple made £30million from Hollywood roles. (Angelina earned more than Brad, as she raked in £18million to trump his £12million. GIRL POWER.)

Naturally David and Victoria Beckham also made it onto the top 5 in fourth place. David was the big earner, thanks to all of his deals with sportswear companies, bringing in £24million while Victoria’s fashion label brought in about £3million independently.

And last, coming in at fifth place, surprisingly, was Robert Pattinson with his surly Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart. Both of the stars each earned £12million from the wildly popular vampire series.

By Elisabeth Edvardsen on August 17th, 2011

Singer Beyoncé Knowles has revealed a sneak preview of pieces from her new fashion collection which will hit UK stores next month.

In the photos Beyoncé – who has revealed she could soon be ready to start a family with husband and rap star Jay-Z – is sporting French knickers and lace-high socks. It comes as no surprise that B is modelling the range herself, just look at those legs!

The new House of Dereon range will be launched at Selfridges, London, in September – coinciding nicely with London Fashion Week – and Beyoncé is set to fly in for the occasion. Her second collection, which by the looks of it will include tribal-prints, will start at £80 and be exclusively available in Selfridges for six week before going into other stores in October.
