It was announced that Czech supermodel Karolina Kurkova will play Cover Girl in new G.I. Joe live action movie.

Courtney A. Kreiger, better known as Cover Girl, is a fictional character from the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero-themed toy line of the 1980s, appearing in both the comic books and the cartoons. She is one of G.I. Joe’s tank jockeys, specializing in the Wolverine missile tank.

Prior to joining G.I. Joe, Cover Girl was a highly successful fashion model from Peoria, Illinois who graced the covers of countless magazines, but she found the world of modeling unfulfilling and joined the army to seek out new challenges in life. She felt very driven to master distinctly unfeminine traits in order to prove that she was not just a pretty face.

Karolína will join David Murray (Destro), Dennis Quaid (Hawk), Arnold Vosloo (Zartan), Channing Tatum (Duke), Sienna Miller (The Barones), Ray Park (Snake Eyes), Rachel Nichols (Scarlett), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Heavy Duty), Said Taghmaoui (Breaker), Marlon Wayans (Ripcord), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Rex) and Byung-hun Lee (Storm Shadow) in the live action G.I. Joe directed by Stephen Sommers set to be released August 7, 2009.

Agyness Deyn gets the whole May 2008 issue of i-D magazine devoted to her

| 0 comments |


With her elfin white blonde hair, endless legs and knife-like cheekbones, she’s the hottest new girl on the block.

Hailed as a modern-day Kate Moss, at 5ft 9in she’s two inches taller, nine years younger… and way cooler.

Demand for her is huge. Agyness is the multi-million-pound face - and body - of Mulberry and Burberry and a Vogue cover girl.

Even if she’s the biggest model of the moment right now, Agyness insists she leads a (more or less) regular life. Here’s what she said about her size and food preferences:

“I’m no size-zero. I still eat fish and chips. And pizza. It’s my favourite food and they do the best ones in New York. “People think models starve themselves but not me. I eat really normally.

I think it’s important to be healthy, and for that you are allowed a little bit of everything. If you eat too much you put on weight, if you have a happy medium you stay the same. Every thing in moderation, Especially pizza!

I work out, not avidly, I don’t work out every day. I do yoga, I’ve just started and I love it.” Indeed. Her perfect skin belies the fact that she loves to party - nightclubbing with celebrity chums Lily Allen and Kelly Osbourne.

First Lady Carla Bruni stuns politicians with her beauty and grace

| 0 comments |


Former supermodel (and now French First Lady) Carla Bruni looked gorgeous in this long purple dress, as she attended an official dinner gala at the Elysee Palace in Paris yesterday (March 10).

“With a woman like Carla Bruni on the scene, French political summits have certainly become a lot more watchable,” remarked a political journalist this week. And after seeing the model-turned-singer’s appearance at her new husband’s side for a dinner at the Elysee Palace on Monday night it’s easy to appreciate how she’s been won over commentators with her style and charm.

Not only was President Nicolas Sarkozy’s wife on typically stunning form in a striking one shoulder purple gown at the function, held to welcome Israeli President Shimon Peres, she is also settling into the role of France’s First Lady.

The nerves which marked the glamorous 40-year-old’s first official appearances with her new husband seem to have disappeared. As she arrived at the function she was the epitome of poise, while her emerging confidence was also evident as she chatted to the Israeli premier over dinner.

Supermodel Adriana Lima`s basketball star husband has been cleared of sexually assaulting a woman.

Memphis Grizzlies player Marko Jaric, 30, was under investigation amid claims he assaulted a woman in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania last weekend, reports Sports Illustrated.

Jaric, who married catwalk star Lima last month, insists the accusations are "100 per cent false".

And his spokesperson reveals no charges will be filed.

The representative tells TMZ.com, "I received official word from the Philadelphia District Attorneys office that after a thorough investigation no charges will be filed against my client, Marko Jaric, in connection with the alleged incident with an unnamed female on February 11, 2009 while his team was in town to play the (Philadelphia) 76ers.

"Persons in Marko`s position are often the target of malicious statements and it is not unusual for the police to be asked to investigate. However, these allegations were proved to be completely false, and while Marko is extremely unsettled by these accusations, he is happy that the law enforcement authorities have cleared him of any criminal conduct and the issue can now be put to rest."

Kate Moss Wearing Her Engagement Ring (Rumour)

| 0 comments |


Kate Moss tended to hide her sparkling ring, which is believed to be an engagement ring, on her left ring finger when she was spotted leaving Goucho Club on Wednesday, March 25. The 35-year-old model looked very gorgeous wearing her leopard print coat.

Previously, Kate's beau Jamie Hince stated that he was desperate to marry the British supermodel after dating her for more than a year. The 40-year-old rocker currently plans for his wedding day. "I want to marry Kate. She's all I want. She's all I need," he told News of the World newspaper. "I loved the Queen tribute band The Bohemians. They're really good. They are even better than Queen. They can come to the wedding."

Regarding Jamie and Kate's wedding plans, friends of the couple believed that the ceremony will be held soon. "It's obvious how loved-up they are. We can't wait for them to get married...and the party afterwards," a friend testified. "Now he's got to pull his finger out and ask her properly. She'll definitely say yes."

Heidi Montag Fake Wedding

| 0 comments |


To call The Hills fake or scripted would be an understatement, but it's still one of the most popular reality shows on television. So when their leading 'actors' agree to get married for the cameras, MTV is going to make sure they squeeze all they can out of it.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are planning on tying the knot this weekend, again, but is it for real this time? Highly doubt it.

The couple first "eloped" in Mexico, but never filed for a marriage license. They next filmed an episode at the Beverly Hills Courthouse where they pretended they were having a civil ceremony, but the judge was actually an actor, and Heidi and Spencer had a change of heart about the ceremony.

So will they actually get married this Saturday like MTV wants everyone to believe? Sources on set claim that Saturday's wedding at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Pasadena is nothing more than a phony ceremony for the series finale of the show.

An insider tells In Touch, "It’s all set up by the producers of MTV to get people to watch. It’s just a plot line. They’re not really getting married."

But Spencer's sister Stephanie seems really excited about the nuptials anyway. "I'm really excited to be a bridesmaid, but I'm pretty worried. I'm looking into waterproof eye makeup because I know I'm going to cry," Stephanie told Hollyscoop exclusively.

In regards to being a bridesmaid, Stephanie said, "Holly and I are wearing yellow gowns from BCBG and our [Spencer and her] niece is the flower girl! She's also wearing a yellow dress."

Lauren Conrad said she was invited but would not attend. "I think that it was very nice of her to invite, but I think that she didn't really expect me to come," she said.

The reception will reportedly be held at Wolfgang Puck's Cut steakhouse in Beverly Hills, but the real question is, will their union be legal, or all for show?

Jennifer Lopez Gushes About and Max

| 0 comments |


Stopping by the Rachael Ray show for an episode that will air on Friday, April 24, Jennifer Lopez opened up to Ray about life with her twins Max and Emme.

Speaking about her adorable twins, J.Lo says Max and Emme are like "night and day." She goes on to talk about her daughters Emme-tude, her pregnancy, and the twins' 1-year birthday party.

The episode doesn't air until Friday, but here are some highlights from the interview:

Lopez on how different the twins are: “They’re very different. You can really see it, even from when they’re really young. Boy, girl. It’s funny to say because he’s more like the visceral boy, running, knocking things down, eating the world - you know what I mean? And she’s kinda like, takes a step and stops and picks things up, and she’s like, ‘I don’t know, maybe I’ll eat this.’ … It’s funny because now that I see Max, I’m like, I was more like Max.”

Lopez on finding out she was having twins: "At a certain point, you start to think, 'Oh, maybe this isn't going to happen for me.' Then, when I was about seven weeks, the doctor said, 'Oh there's a little heartbeat. Oh there's another little heartbeat.' I was like, 'Oh God!' I just laughed. Mark cried, I laughed. I was like, 'Of course. Why not?'"

Lopez on Max looking more like her: ”You know what’s so funny though, me and Mark are always claiming he’s got my head and he’s got my mouth. And he’s like he’s got my eyes and my nose, and I’m like thank God she’s got my nose! It’s awful!,” she laughs. “But you want it all to be you...That’s the nature of who we are, we can’t help it. We’re both trying to steal it all.”

Lopez on also seeing herself in Emme: “She’s funny because we call her Emme-tude because we’re like she’s giving us Emme-tude right now… when she catches an attitude - Wooooahh. She gets that from her dad. I’m kidding … She gets it from me.”

Lopez on their first birthday party: “We did it in my backyard in L.A. We had a barbeque/carnival type thing. It was more just like we had snow cones and a little jumpy. They had the best time at their birthday party, I didn’t think a one year old could have fun at a birthday party. But they did, they loved it. …I think I did a good job, and they’re going to remember.”

Beyonce and Kim Kardashian Obsess Fashion?

Last night the Big Apple played host to the The Cinema Society and MCM's screening of Obsessed.

Beyonce took to the red carpet to promote her new movie in an interesting choice of dress. The super star looked great as she proved the train has definitely left the station. Mrs. Jay Z wore a very short black sequined mini skirt that a huge train in the back.

Kim Kardashian: The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star showed up in a dusty blue bubble skirt with leather jacket and embellished belt. Kim has a great sense of style, so it's hard for her to ever look bad on the carpet.

Ali Larter: The blonde bombshell took to the carpet in an origami inspired white cocktail dress. The star looked classy and trendy all at the same time.

And not to be left out Lydia Hearst decided to also get into the fashion mix. The Socialite rocked a red and yellow bandage dress with matching Chanel purse.

The stars were out to promote the movie Obsessed ,but were you guys "obsessed" with their choice of clothes? Let us know what you think

A little horse injury can’t keep a good woman down! Madonna is in full recovery mode, and back in the studio. Between the fall, her hospitalization, and the stressful adoption process, she sure knows how to multi-task.

According to Guy Oseary’s Twitter page, which Madge likes to post on often, she was in the studio last night with DJ Paul Oakenfold.

She Tweeted, paul oakenfold is running around the studio naked.. because i wont put the air on.. its hot in here.. but the music is hotter

And she didn’t stop with the Tweets there! A later post to her friend and back-up singer Niki Harris read: “im cooking up something good for you to sing with me on… love,

Guy then regained control of his Twitter page, saying, finally listening to the track! been waiting and waiting for the right mix.another great DANCE track.

The Twitter phenomenon is getting crazier by the minute. Amidst working in the studio, Madge found time to Tweet with her pal Demi Moore, telling her they needed to plan more parties. She wrote to Demi, @mrskutcher we need to throw more parties.. and spice things up a bit.. not enough people dancing these days.

We weren’t aware Madonna partied! But we’re glad she’s being productive in the studio while she’s waiting to hear about Mercy’s adoption!

Top Models Adrianne Curry Launches Fashion

| 0 comments |


Adrianne Curry, the winner of the first season of America’s Next Top Model, launched a fashion blog at LA on January 13 2009.

I will focus more on fashion, beauty, and fitness on my LA.com blog, Adrianne writes on her MySpace.I am a fountain of beauty tip knowledge, and can;t wait to put it to good use I hope you guys sign up and wait for my model blogs

Adrianne’s first post went up yesterday, but it was little more than an introduction.She promises we can expect more soon.

Somehow this blog is part of a larger project called Insta Shopping spree, a technology that instantly identifies the products a celeb is wearing in photos and provides you with links so you can purchase them You can check this out here.

I think the technology is really neat and could be useful for many fashion and beauty sites out there. However, I am really confused as to why Adrianne is involved. She’s never established herself as a fashion or beauty icon, other than her ramblings on her website and her MySpace.
