Dannii Monigue’s Cute Tribute

Posted by skywalkeer on February 7th, 2011

Dannii Minogue has been spotted out and about wearing a necklace with the letter ‘E’ on it. It has got people talking about who that is for.

However, as she was recently seen with Kris Smith, then it is probably for their baby boy ‘Ethan’. Ethan Edward Smith was born on 5th July 2010, giving Dannii just enough time to get back in to shape before appearing as a judge on the UK’s X-Factor. She got back in to the role very well as one of her contestants, Matt Cardle, ended up winning the show. She was very proud, but not as much as she was of her lovely son.

Dannii has been going out with Kris Smith since 2008 and having a baby was a natural step for the happy couple.

Dannii has managed to get back to her slim look very quickly after having her baby. However, she was not always that skinny. In the days when she was acting in the soap ‘Home and Away’ she was often told she was fat. Of course, she was nothing of the sort, maybe a bit more round in the face and curvier but she always had a lovely flat stomach when she wore bikinis on the set. She did seem to suddenly transform with more chiselled cheek bones and slimmer looking neck and these seem to appear when she started sweeping her hair back and it certainly suited her.

She has spoken out about her weight, explaining that she had a school friend with anorexia, who almost died in hospital and she always vowed that she did not want that to happen to her. She also admits that she was always happy with how she looked, even when the press were saying that she was too big, What a fantastic attitude to have and from the outfits that she has chosen over the years, which show her body off perfectly, it was obvious they she never felt the need to cover up. It is obvious that she works out a lot more these days, but she has always looked good and been able to carry off almost every type of outfit. She seems to share her sister’s eye for style and with the support that they always give each other, it is no wonder that she has so much body confidence. To have a sister who was often considered to be more successful, must have been difficult for her and the temptation to slim down could have been there for others in that situation.

It is great that we can have someone to look up to who is so beautiful, curvy and slim but not afraid to speak out about her body and the fact that she has had a baby and still looks fabulous can give us all hope! However, many of us are probably a bit jealous of how quickly she did get back in to shape when it can take years (or maybe forever) to shift that baby weight!

Robbie Williams is Haunted

Posted by skywalkeer on February 5th, 2011

A friend of pop star Robbie Williams has told ‘The Sun’ newspaper that he is living in a haunted house.

Robbie shares the Hollywood mansion with his wife Ayda Field and is not at all worried about the ghostly presence. Their dogs can see him and they even have the nickname ‘Bertie’ for him. They have said that it is a man from the 20th century and Robbie likes to imagine him wearing a suit and holding a Martini glass.

It seems that the couple are very close to their eight dogs, who all attended their August wedding in the places of bridesmaids. The wedding was kept a secret, although there were rumours about it in the press a few days before it happened. They had some very untraditional things happen at the ceremony and leading up to the wedding, with no parties beforehand and a fantastic cake with three different flavours so everyone was happy. They even served a fried breakfast at 1am while everyone was enjoying the party. Robbie reportedly said that he wanted everyone to have so much cake that they would have a cake hangover. The couple married at Robbies mansion in LA on Saturday 7th August with just 40 guests including Robbies friend Jonathan Wilkes as best man, it was certainly an intimate do. They did not miss out on an opportunity to cash in though, as they sold exclusive rights to pictures to OK magazine.

Robbie Williams

It is good to hear a more light hearted story about Robbie Williams, although since getting married and back together with ‘Take That’ things seem to be looking up for the singer. Even his Father was pleased, telling ‘News of the World’ that he is so pleased that his son is happy at last as that was all he ever really wanted for his children and that he had never seen him happier.

He has had a difficult personal life with his drug and alcohol addiction being no secret. He has publicly spoken about his stage fright and how that can lead him to going off the wagon and then having to check back in to rehab. Despite a very successful career he always seemed troubles. He does admit that his wife is very good for him and that she has made him a much better person. With the ‘Take That’ tour due to start in the summer, lets hope that his wife can give him some help in keeping out of trouble while he is travelling. With his fellow band mates often landing themselves in trouble as well, hopefully they will work hard to look after each other and stay on track this time.

Most recently it has been Mark Owen, who is in strive after admitting that he has had a lot of affairs during his marriage due to his alcohol problems. Luckily he was recently photographed on holiday with his wife and they looked close and happy. With two pre-school aged children, lets hope that they can make things work and keep the family together.

Liz Hurley Trying for Reconciliation

Posted by skywalkeer on February 4th, 2011

Liz Hurley has had an interesting love life of late and now it has been revealed that she has begged her husband to take her back, after being seen with another man.

Liz, split up with her husband, Arun Nayar, following allegations that she was having an affair with Shane Warne, the cricketer. They had been seen out and about together a lot, just after they both announced splitting up with their spouses. However, it seems that Shane was not being honest with Liz and was sending texts to another woman, Adele Angeleri. It seems that he sent her over a hundred provocative messages, telling her what he would like to do with her and such like, during the time that him and Liz Hurley were seeing each other. It was reported that when Liz found out what was going on, she dumped him.

Liz Hurley

Shane Warne has been in trouble in the past for sending erotic text messages. He allegedly sent them to a women while on a tour of South Africa, although these claims were not held. In 2000 he was no longer allowed to be vice captain of the Australian team because he send a nurse text messages which were erotic. He was also caught smoking when he was being sponsored by a nicotine patch company, which probably also added to him being discredited. His then separated from his wife in 2005 but tried to get back together with her in 2007, but soon after he accidentally sent his wife a text message meant for another woman and that ended it. It was in 2010 when he announced their separation, after the press had started publishing photographs of him together with Liz Hurley.

‘The Sun’ newspaper has been told that Liz now wants to try to get back together with her husband. They reported that she has phoned him to apologise but he is not interested in them getting back together again. This is not really surprising since he has been seen out and about with a mystery brunette. Things may have seemed innocent, not all liaisons between men and women mean anything. But when the pair realised that they had been spotted by the paparazzi, she quickly disappeared in to a taxi. He then drove off as well, making it look like they were trying to hide something. They certainly know how to raise suspicions.

Liz keeps herself very busy these days, with her swimwear range, her snack food bars and of course her son. She started her career as an actress and then did some modelling, she has more recently worked as a television presenter but these days seems to be concentrating more on her businesses. She launched her health bars to try to help women with weight loss and says that she eats one herself every day to help keep herself in trim. She has also spoken about extending her swim war collection to include larger pieces such as dresses. These business expansions will certainly take up a lot of her time. Of course, she is still always in the public eye and so any meetings that she has with men are bound to be noticed by someone.

Weight problems for Khloe

Posted by skywalkeer on February 3rd, 2011

Khloe Kardashian has been struggling with her weight. The reality star has admitted on her blog that her weight is always going up and down and there has even been stories in the press that she was pregnant.

There were rumours flying around after the People’s Choice Awards, when she war a baggy Alexander McQueen gown and so she felt she had to speak out and admit that it was just excess weight that she was carrying, rather than a baby.

It is fantastic to hear someone in the public eye speaking out like this. With everyone feeling pressure to look their best and looking to those in the public eye as inspiration, it can sometimes seem an impossible target. But with more celebrities admitting that weight is a problem for them, it can help other people who also struggle to realise that they are not on their own.

Khloe Kardashian

The star, who is twenty six and rose to fame in the TV show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, said that she does find her weight a struggle. She said that she tries to ignore what people say about her looks, but sometimes something is said and just hits her and makes her feel upset. Most people have probably felt this way at one time or another, but at least most of us do not have to read about how people feel about us in a newspaper. She went on to say, that although many people say ‘sticks and stones will break my bones and words will never hurt me’, she finds that some words can be very hurtful indeed. If any women reading this have been accused of being pregnant and they are not carrying a child, then they will know how hurtful this can be, probably not something that anyone could laugh off.

With her constantly being compared to her sisters, who she admits are smaller than her, she must be used to dealing with these issues by now. She told ‘Life & Style Magazine’ that she was bullied as a child but it was the support of her sisters which got her through it. She went on to say that you should move past it, not dwell on bullying your whole life or even take your life because you are bullied. But she did go on to say that without her family and friends she would have found it difficult to cope with.

Many stars hit our screens looking good with healthy curves then feel the pressure to slim right down, before realising that things have gone too far and they need to gain some weight. It seems a combination of healthy eating and exercise, but not too much, seem to be the answer for most people. Hopefully Khloe will not go the too slim route but will keep her lovely curves and maybe gym visits with Nicole Richie will help her to shape up so that she is happy with how she looks. Being happy in your own skin certainly seems to be the celebrity secret to looking real good, with many stars accepting their looks, adopting healthy routines and looking much better for it.

Top Models star with Ashton Kutcher

Posted by skywalkeer on February 2nd, 2011

In Brazil this week, watchers at the catwalk has a surprise in store for them.

Not only were Alessandra Ambrosio and Gisele Bundchen looking really hot, modelling the latest styles for the Colcci collection for Autumn/Winter 2011, but they were joined by Aston Kutcher. The show was part of the Sao Paulo Fashion Week and they were closely watched by Aston’s wife Demi Moore and daughter Tallulah Willis. They walked the red carpet, drawing attention from the media and then took a front seat at the show.

Demi Moore is always in the news because of her fabulous body. Despite having had children, she hardly looks like she has aged since the 1980′s, in fact she looks even younger than she did then at times. She had admitted spending some money on plastic surgery , although not to her face. These days she is much happier with her body though. She admits that she used to feel that her body ruled her and she wanted to make it perfect, but now she is happy with how she looks and does not worry about it any more. I think that it would be hard to find anyone unhappy with their body if it looked like hers.

Ashton Kutcher

Of course, Gisele Bundchen is also a new mother and so her figure is one to be envied as well. The fact that she was the highest earning model during 2009, a year that she was mainly pregnant during, just shows how desirable she is at the moment. She soon got back to doing underwear shoots, showing off her stretch mark free, taught stomach. Her tip, was to keep eating healthily during pregnancy. She said she didn’t have maternity clothes while pregnant as she put on such a small amount of weight. Most of us would probably rather put on a bit and have an excuse to indulge ourselves.

Despite the fact that the two models at the catwalk show were a lot younger than her and of course have perfect bodies, Demi Moore certainly did not look any worse than them. She certainly had nothing to be jealous about as her husband paraded the catwalk with the two beauties. She has got as much to show off as they have.

There were rumours in September that Ashton was cheating on Demi, but he denied them and it seems like they were pretty close at the show.

Ashton has had more than his fair share of stress. In 2001, he was dating Ashley Ellerin who was murdered. The night in question, he cancelled a date and then tried to call her but got no answer so went around to her house to see if she was okay. He looked through the window and mistook a red stain on the carpet for red wine, but it was actually her blood, she had been stabbed. He has never spoken about the event publicly and has probably been pleased to leave it well behind him. However, the man accused of the murder is standing trial some time this year and he will have to give evidence, explaining everything that happened during that evening. He will really need the support of his wife and family during that time. The date of his appearance in court has not yet been announced.
