High-Maintenance Mom Victoria Beckham
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Clothing, Style, Rumors
International fashionista Victoria Beckham used to spend two hours getting ready to take her sons to school.
The singer-turned-fashion designer - who has children Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, seven and four-year-old Cruz with her soccer star husband David Beckham - insisted on sticking to an elaborate grooming routine in order to look her best when performing everyday tasks in Los Angeles.
A source said, “She was spending over two hours getting ready, just to take the kids to school!”
However, the 35-year-old star has now embraced a more relaxed dress sense during the day time to help her avoid the constant media scrutiny.
“You wouldn’t believe what a difference it’s made to her life. Cooling her love affair with high heels has been the latest big development. She still cares about her image, but it was becoming a real burden. At first, it was hard for her to accept that in Hollywood, A-list stars go out of their way to dress down to avoid attention. Only wannabes dress up to try and generate interest in themselves. In many ways, she was undermining her credibility with the locals. She just didn’t fit in.”
From now on, Victoria has vowed to take a more laid back approach to her appearance. The friend added, “Victoria doesn’t regret the way she looked, but by the same token she certainly doesn’t want to repeat the mistakes of what she calls the ‘Posh and Becks days.’”

Coordinated Look of the Day: Joshua Jackson and Diane Kruger
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Clothing, Style
It appears that Diane Kruger (Inglourious Basterds) and Joshua Jackson (Fringe) have taken a page out of Halle Berry’s book.
Although the two weren’t exactly color-coordinated (it wasn’t bad though), the pair did obviously shop from the same fedora rack before entering LAX yesterday.
What is that saying again—the couple that flies together must come off the airplane looking like they are together?

Justin Timberlake Reverts to NSYNC Days
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Music, Hair Styles, Style, Photos, Paparazzi Photos
While it’s sometimes easy to forget about Justin Timberlake‘s boy band roots, the entrepreneur is either kicking back to his NSYNC days or just becoming lazy with his hair. Timberlake showed off his new old ‘do when he recently walked on to a movie set.
I, for one, did not miss the curls—I hope that his stylist gets them chopped off soon (or at least until he’s done shooting his scenes).
Anyone standing in defense of his longer locks?

Beyonce Knowles: I Just Sacrificed Life
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Style
Singer and actress Beyonce Knowles said she has sacrificed her entire life in becoming successful.
The “Single Ladies” singer said that the pressures of celebrity have taken everything away from her that would allow her to enjoy a normal lifestyle.
“I just sacrificed life. Being able to walk down the street and being able to make mistakes and not have it recorded for ever. Being able to have regular relationships and dates. Just regular, normal things that people probably don’t even think about. Sometimes it’s hard.”
Beyonce, 28, also said that during her career - which has so far spanned 14 years recording with Destiny’s Child and as a solo artist - she has hardly ever had any chance to take a break. She added, “I haven’t had longer than a couple of months off ever in my life, since I was 15. But I was raised that anything that’s worth anything takes a lot of sacrifice. And when anything is too easy for me I get scared.”

Quote of the Day: Robert Pattinson on His No-So-Fresh Style
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Clothing, Style
“Yeah, kind of. Like these jeans are a few days old, but the top is probably fresh because it gets to the point where even I can’t stand the air around me. I don’t know, my personal hygiene – it’s so disgusting! Really it’s just that I have very few clothes that I like and I’m travelling all the time, so I can’t really get any more.”
-New Moon‘s Robert Pattinson admitting to his infrequent clothing changes.

Coordinated Look of the Day: Halle Berry and Family
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Clothing, Style
Some families have the looks. Others have style. Then there are those who make us want to cry because they’re blessed with both.
Now, I don’t know about you—but I can’t recall the last time my husband and I looked runway ready, let alone color-coordinated, the last time we walked off an airplane. But Halle Berry, Gabriel Aubry and their daughter Nahla somehow managed to pull it off during their flight to LAX yesterday.
Is there something besides free alcohol that I’m missing up in first class?

Robert Pattinson Channels James Dean, Johnny Depp
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Style, Rants, Photos
For not being a fan of his own face, Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson is not helping his case when he’s styled like iconic heartthrob James Dean on this month’s cover of AnOther Man.
The black-and-white, the perfectly-tousled hair, the I-know-I’m-hot-but-I’m-going-to-look-mysterious facial expression. No, you definitely do not have me fooled, Mr. Pattinson. Johnny Depp already did this way before you—find another avenue to feel sorry for your woe-is-me self on.
“Annoyingly, there are so few parts I feel I can add anything to, or that I want to do. I don’t want to be an actor for the sake of it. I don’t find any particular pleasure in being an attention-seeker,” Pattinson said. Right. That’s why you signed on to Twilight in the first place, beating out 5,000 other actors for the coveted role of Edward Cullen.
That’s not to say that I still don’t enjoy drooling over his pictures, like the one after the jump…

Marathon Woman Madonna
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music
Madonna is to run a 151-mile, six-day race.
The “4 Minutes” singer is in training for the grueling Marathon des Sables in Morocco, which is due to take place next April.
A source told Star: “She’s always been in great shape, but she is now taking things to a whole other level. She is serious about doing it.”
The 51-year-old star is so keen to triumph she has warned her management to keep her schedule free for the whole month. Madonna is known for her super-toned physique and adheres to a strict eating plan and exercise regime. On occasions she has been forced to defend her ultra-healthy lifestyle and “unwomanly” muscular body.
Madonna, who is dating 22-year-old Brazilian model Jesus Luz, said, “My body is an important instrument as well as my voice. Does working out really help with singing? Yeah, absolutely. Using your diaphragm properly is connected to having good posture. Your body is one organism. You can’t separate it. If you are not in good health your vocal cords will suffer. Everything will suffer.”
‘Cool’ Cross-Dresser Keith Richards
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Clothing, Fashion Police, Style
Keith Richards is not afraid to admit that he wears his wife’s clothes. Should we be surprised?
The Rolling Stones rocker takes a keen interest in fashion and his spouse, former supermodel Patty Hansen insists he looks good in anything—even her cast-offs.
The couple’s 23-year-old daughter Alexandra revealed: “My mum says he’d even look cute in a tutu. He doesn’t wear one, but he can wear anything and make it look great. He wears my mum’s pyjama pants and blouses, and still makes them look amazing. It’s cool.”
Alexandra and her sister Theodora, who are currently fronting an advertising campaign for French Connection together, say they have always been proud of their parents’ individual senses of style. Theodora explained to Britain’s Grazia magazine: “We were watching our baby videos last night and my mum and dad were the most wicked dressers. Everyone else was wearing clean-cut pants and T-shirts, and they had scarves on their heads, earrings everywhere - dad too. Their style definitely affected us.”
Jennifer Lopez is Scared of the Dark
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Celebrity Babies
Jennifer Lopez is scared of the dark—apparently divas can fear something, after all.
The “Get Right” singer admitted that she makes her husband Marc Anthony wait until she’s asleep before he is allowed to turn off the lights.
The 40-year-old star, who is renowned for her diva behavior, explained: “I like the quiet, but I don’t like the dark. We have everything on dimmers so I kind of trick myself into the darkness. Marc always turns off the lights after he comes to bed. I’m usually sleeping—or he waits till I fall asleep and then turns them off.”
Jennifer and Marc have been married for five years and the star is the first to admit their relationship, like any, “takes work.” To help keep the spark alive, Jennifer reads books about successful marriages and relationships.
“I’m constantly trying to figure love out. It’s the never-ending question—what is the key to love? I’m old enough to know now that relationships take work. That’s it’s not an easy thing,” the actress-turned-singer said.
