when you stare i’m aware of your desire
when you scream, your voice gets me higher

when you stare i’m aware of your desire
when you scream, your voice gets me higher
when we dance our love is on fire!
i love your energy is perfect chemistry,
our heart.. cause that’s what you do to me!
let’s talk more plain, let’s move, embrace
let your heart get away, oh yeah!

{December 6, 2007}   Lily Allen Flaunts It

lily-allen GQ.jpg

Lily Allen needs to make up her mind. She once said in an interview that the reason she started exercising to lose weight was because of a heart murmur but in the cover article of British GQ, she’s saying otherwise.

Lily is well known for publicly attacking every celebrity and she says “A lot of that stuff I said was because I didn’t feel confident. I felt like, ‘Oh God, I’m short, fat, ugly…and I hate all these people who flaunt their beauty.’ Ever since a kid I’ve felt like I’m possibly the uncoolest, naffest person ever to walk the earth. But I feel great at the moment. I actually don’t have one bad thing to say about anything.”

So did she lose weight for her health or did she lose it because she was insecure?



I am not a fan,  but this cover is gorgeous.  Another example of the miracles of Photoshop & Air Brushing!



{December 6, 2007}   Christina’s Baby Bump

When it comes to pregnant moms in Hollywood, the fad seems to be baring your baby bump in a magazine. Demi Moore did it, Britney Spears did it and now, Christina Aguilera bares it all for the ‘Sexy Mama’ cover article in the January 2008 issue of Marie Claire.

In the interview which accompanies her cover, she talks about pinpointing when she conceived, her pregnancy being a surprise, being pregnant while being on her ‘Back to Basics’ tour, her decision to not announce anything and her domestication.

It’s pretty clear that even though she’s going to be a mom soon, Christina still has some strong opinions regarding her image.



{December 6, 2007}   Britney Turns 26

 

Britney at 26

Britney Spears celebrated her birthday into the wee hours of the night at The Scandinavian Style Mansion event at a private residence on Sunday in the exclusive area of Bel Air, California. She wore a slinky black mini dress, purple panties, a white fur-trimmed jacket and YSL Tribute platform shoes. The party was attended by Alli Sims, Diamond Entertainment owner Claus Hjelmbak, Sam Lufti and Paris Hilton among others.

She turned 26 this past weekend. While she aged in years, I doubt she aged in mentality. After the party ended and by the time that most normal people are alive and kicking, the pop wreck mama spent her special day with her two sons.



Amy Winehouse drugs

Amy Winehouse is moving. The troubled singer is leaving her flat in London’s Camden and moving her stuff to a new apartment in Bow in East London. And as she was in the process of moving earlier this week, photographers snapped some pictures capturing a suspicious looking bag in the singer’s trunk.

The bag looked like it was filled with a mound of white powder. Well, that’s not mysterious. It’s probably cocaine. Didn’t she do a line during one of her concerts? And if that wasn’t bad enough, Pete Doherty showed up at Amy’s new place around 4 AM on December 4. Are they doing lines together now?
