First, Uma Thurman’s was court for a stalker and now she’s in court suing former employer Lancome for an advertising dispute.
On Friday, the actress filed a $15 milion suit against the French makeup giant for continuing to use her image on Canadian billboards and Asian websites long after her contract had expired in 2004. Fair […]

Ashley Goes for Brooke’s Brows

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Trendsetting troll Ashley Olsen reportedly caused a “commotion” at this year’s Costume Institue Gala because of her - wait for it - bushy eyebrows!
Yes, half of the Olsen empire will now be responsible for the decline in tweezer sales and brow guru Anastasia’s grooming products.
We actually don’t mind the brows, but it seems like Ashley’s […]

Pacifique’s Ocean

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

Getting away to tropical paradise is not something us normal folk get to do everyday.
Heck, we’d consider ourselves majorly lucky if we got a chance to do an all-inclusive in Cancun, let alone somewhere like the Maldives or St. Bart’s.
A Parisian couple traveling through Tahiti back in 1976 — who brought back olfactory essences […]

Wanna Smell Like Naomi??

More Ombre, Hombre

Friday, April 11th, 2008

Parisian cosmetics giant Guerlain is jumping onto the ombre bandwagon, too.
Guerlain started off strictly in the perfume business early last century, but thanks to the financial injection of Bernard Arnault and his LVMH, expanded their reach into cosmetics.
You know how you can’t live without their bronzer? You probably won’t be able to go another […]

American Avon

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

Jordin Sparks is avoiding the gargantuan pitfalls of Taylor Hicks and Ruben Studdard by going the way of Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson and Chris Daughtry instead.
She’s got her American Idol title from last year’s sixth season, that hot new single “No Air” with Chris Brown, an opening slot for Alicia Keys’ “As I Am” tour […]

Gwyneth Morphing Into Mother

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008

We love Gwyneth Paltrow, but we feel like she’s turning into Blythe Danner.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Her mom is 65 and still rockin’ it, but Gwynnie is 35 - and they have exactly the same hair.
As the Brits would say, it’s very “mumsy.”
We loved the stick straight Carolyn Bessette locks she’s been sporting […]
