Demi Moore's first cover up "Vanity Fair" issue:






Demi Moore


Demi Moore infamously posed naked and pregnant for the cover of Vanity Fair in 1991; a year later, she appeared again on Vanity Fair's cover wearing nothing but a painted-on bodysuit. However, on the current cover of Vanity Fair's February issue, a more mature Moore decided to remain clothed... not that the magazine didn't try to get her naked. "Demi Moore, a woman of astonishing beauty attractiveness with an enviable figure, has appeared on this cover in various stages of undress in the past," editor Graydon Carter writes in his Editor's Letter. "But pressed by photographer Mario Testino and style director Michael Roberts to reveal more, she politely demurred, explaining that, at her age, she felt her body was not up to the sort of scrutiny it could handle 15 years ago. Well, there's no accounting for good taste these days." Sorry, Graydon- it looks like her husband, Ashton Kutcher, has got the exclusive on a naked Demi these days! {Source}
Candids:

Rihanna was spotted down in her hometown of Barbados soaking up the sun in a leopard print swimsuit by Roberto Cavalli. (who else?) 2006 has been good for RiRi. She had a platinum album, "A Girl Like Me", had D&G designing her stage costumes, was caught in the middle of the "Ring the Alarm" hype, and is now a CoverGirl. 2007 might be her year to outshine.

TMZ caught up with Mario Lopez and Usher shopping around LA for beauty products. Hey now they have to perserve their sexy. At least we know they want to be sexy. Mario shopped at Lee's Beauty Supply in Burbank and Usher shopped at Kitson Men on Robertson Blvd.

MTV News visited JoJo on the set of her new music video, "How to Touch A Girl" last month.[JoJofan.com]

Juicy tidbits:

Aishwarya Rai
Aishwarya got a hater for a kiss scene in her latest film. "A court in central India has heard statements from a lawyer complaining that an on-screen kiss by Bollywood belle Aishwarya Rai and co-star Hrithik Roshan contravened the country's strict laws against obscenity...My conscience made me file this case. The movie cannot be watched by Indian families as it depicts vulgarity," he said. His complaint is based on section 292 (vulgarity) and section 509 (derogatory to women) of the Indian Penal Code, and states that "Dhoom 2 lowered the dignity of Indian women and gave an obscene message to India's youth". In the movie, Hrithik kisses former Miss World Aishwarya inside a house, just after a Brazilian carnival sequence. Although many Bollywood productions feature raunchy dance scenes, actual kissing is rarely shown on-screen." {AFP}
Janet Jackson's diet secret:
Janet Damita Jo Jackson
Now that the holidays are finally over, celebrities are working hard on their resolutions to shape up, slim down and get in shape. Janet Jackson has resolved to lose 10 pounds by February with a sensible diet of five small 300-calorie meals per day. “Her secret is consistency — doing the right things day in and day out,” her nutritionist, David Allen, tells In Touch. {Source} Janet hurrry up on your fitness book!
Eva Longoria is the new face of Bebe Sport according to Life & Style magazine.
Eva longoria's the new face of Bebe Sport
Here's the offiical statement made by Life & Style's source:
"Eva will be featured in the company's new campaign for its sport line, which is sexy and young workout wear and casual clothing. She'll be featured in both print ads and TV ads as part of a major marketing campaign. Eva has major mass appeal and can bring the product to a whole new level, and she's gorgerous and looks great in these kind of clothes." {Source}

Oprah gets sued by an audience member and she gives money away to a posh school in Connecticut. My blog affilate Brie of Black Raspberry Love reports on Oprah's latest legal woes. I'm going to say hater to this legal suit. why? Everyone wants to get to rich quick.

Oprah and Halle

"A woman sued Oprah Winfrey's studio Thursday, alleging she was injured in a rush for seats during a taping of the Oprah Show.Tayna Milner said she was pushed down stairs between a waiting area and audience seating at Harpo Studios on April 11, according to the lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court.Her lawsuit accuses the studio in Chicago's West Loop neighborhood of failing to properly control the crowd, which caused Milner to fall and suffer unspecified injuries, the Chicago Tribune reported on its Web site.Milner is seeking more than $50,000 in damages." {Black Raspberry Love}Anyhow Oprah gives $1 mil of her money to a US school."...seems Oprah still has a soft spot for white kids. While her new South African school for girls grabbed headlines, Oprah has also been lending a helping hand to some ultra-white establishments. According to FOX News, Winfrey gave $1 million to Miss Porter's, an exclusive finishing school in Connecticut, where she sent her nieces. Annual tuition is $38,000, and graduates include Jackie Kennedy, the Vanderbilts and the Rockefellers. The talk show queen has also contributed to Chicago's Lake Shore Academy, whose student body is pretty much entirely white." {TMZ}

Destiny's Dream

Beyonce reacts to Oscar snub as said by her publicist:

"Beyonce's publicist ALAN NIEROB insists his client always knew she'd miss out
on a Best Song Oscar nod.
He says, "Beyonce is aware of the Oscar rule that
says only three songwriters can be nominated. It's all about percentages how
much each person contributed to the song.
"Beyonce contributed greatly to
Listen, but her percentage is lower, so she didn't expect to be eligible for
nomination. She's very happy that her co-writers may be recognised."
{Source Okay either Beyonce's really humble or she's mad as hell! I know I'll pissed if I were in her shoes. I say get back together with Destiny's Child and film their own "Dreamgirls" movie damn it, lol! Destiny's Child has had more drama since they came on the scene in 1997.


Usher says that Robin Thicke has released the album of the year with The Evolution of Robin Thicke. Thicke is one of the collaborators on Usher's upcoming CD.




"His album is banging, but also as a producer
and writer, he's amazing,"
the singer said of his friend. "We've been able
to get to a point where
we can work very easily together. I'll give him an
idea and he'll
understand exactly what wavelength I'm
on."
-Usher

Uh huh me and you have got to talk about my man Michael Ealy for a hot second, lmao!!!

Robin Thicke is really good but i'm mad he's not getting the same type of love like Justin Timberlake

and yes bee is probably mad!

 

At 11:15 PM, Anonymous Anonymous

you can have michael ealy on the weekends. i got him monday thru thursday . lol

i noticed that robin thicke hasn't gotten as much love as JT . dudes voice is magical and the fact that he can write and produce songs for other artists should make him even more popular. IMO he sings better than JT .

 

At 9:42 AM, Blogger Chi-Chi

LMAO!!! Hold up who has Michael on Friday's then?!?!? So you got him Friday mornings and I got him Friday afternoons? ROTFL!

Yeah Robin Thicke is underrated. He should get the same love like JT. I mean Robin did a song with Lil' Wayne and Pharrell. He even put his wifey Paula Patton in the video.
