Beauty Tips from the Unpretentious Gisele Bundchen

    Gisele Bundchen’s beauty is truly exhilarating. Despite her age, the 32-year-old model is still chosen as the cover of Harper Bazaar’s Brazil issue, which is due for release this November. Aside from being the goodwill ambassador for the United Nations, she was also recognized for ending the so-called “heroin chic” era of the modeling world.  Bundchen was a former Victoria’s Secret Angel starting from 2000 until the year 2007. She is the world’s highest paid model since 2004. Moreover, Miss Bundchen is also credited as the 16^th richest woman in the entertainment industry. As of 2007, she has garnered a fortune that amounts to $150 million. This femme fetalle does not only dominate the catwalk, she also earned praise for her character portrayals in some movies such as The Devil Wears Prada and Taxi.

 

Due to her tremendous achievements in both the modeling and acting world, many females are raving to know her secrets, particularly her beauty regimen. As a disclaimer, Gisele already stated that her only secret was to be comfortable in her own skin. There is nothing special about what she does. Nonetheless, fans would say otherwise. With that note, many women may opt to imitate her gorgeous hair.  To help them with this, the first thing that they should do is to mist their hair with some styling spray. Afterwards they must use a big curling iron to set the locks and then let their hair loose while misting it with another coating of styling spray.

    As for Gisele’s fit bod, one of prime reasons for this is that she hails from Rio Grande do Sul Brazil and people from this area are inclined to eat spicy foods. Research findings indicate that eating spicy dishes tend to burn up more calories. Pretty Gisele also loves playing outdoors and most probably, her sport activities kept her in shape for the runway.

Justin Timberlake Ties the Knot While Jessica Biel’s Brother Rants Online

     It’s official! Justin Timberlake has tied the knot with Jessica Biel. According to TMZ, he was spotted while wearing his new wedding ring in Fasamo Italy early in the morning. Some of the famous people who attended the JT and Jess’ wedding were Timberlake’s friends.  Two of them were identified as Andy Sanberg and Timbaland. Beverly Mitchell, Biel’s former co-star in 7^th Heaven was also with the couple.  Justin and Jessica were finally engaged in December before parting for sometime in 2011. This is considered as the first wedding for the couple since they were both previously single. However, before meeting Biel, Timberlake had some high profile relationship with Britney Spears and Cameron Diaz.

On the other hand, Jessica’s brother seemed to have something against Timberlake. News has it that Biel’s younger brother had criticized Timberlake’s tequila company for complacency. Justin Biel claims that Timberlake’s 901 Tequila Company was a massive failure due to the drop in sales from the past months. He blames Timberlake for it because apparently, the actor fell short of promoting his own brand. Reports state that JB worked for JT until he resigned just a few weeks ago. Biel’s brother even posted some videos on his Facebook page, which lambasts Timberlake. It stated that Timberlake sabotaged his own company through refusing to promote his own liquor. JB rants that he had waited for JT to do some promotion for the product. He added that Timberlake could simply make a song, post videos or take pictures for the 901 tequila. Not only that, JB insists that the problem has reached their distribution partners and it has caused reputation damage to the company.

It smells as if there is a brewing war between the two Justin’s in Jessica’s life. If this gap is not solved early on, it might result to some complications that might cause problems for the new couple. Moreover, instead of lambasting his new brother in law, JB and JT should talk instead. Posting rude comments online will only make matters worse and it may ruin her sister’s supposedly happy marriage. Based on the turn of events, this report may not be the last from Jessica Biel’s brother.

Choose Your Perfect Hairstyle this Season

    Seasons change and so does fashion trends. To cope with this, women should be updated with the latest hairstyles. To start off, the classic ponytails are still the one on top of the style charts. Ponytails are either worn high or low. To put some effort to it, a light serum is needed to bring some shine. The hair must be first pulled back with a flat brush to smoothen the frizz and bump. Then of course, the look is secured through a band. A light hairspray will secure the hairs in place. To ensure that there are no bumps, a clean toothbrush will do the trick. This step is done after a light hairspray is applied.

    The second most sought after hairstyle this season is the bangs. According to some fashion magazines, bangs are the best hair accessory for this time of the year. It does not matter if they are full, short, square and rounded or just swept by the side. These bangs are used to frame the face and accentuate the eyes. As a tip from renowned stylists, the perfect bangs are achieved by drying the hair through the blow dryer nozzle attachment. The airflow must be directed straight from the roots. Gals should use a vent or denman brush and the hair must be moved from side to side to keep them sleek. Moreover, icy blondes and creamy highlights are the in colors this period. Bad news for brunettes, the flaxen and golden colors are already out of style.  If these icy blonde colors are not suitable to the skin tone or eye color, then women who would like to change their hair hue may opt for ash or beige shades. Hair ornaments are also making a comeback. Floral hairpieces and cosmic hairpieces would catch the attention of onlookers. However, it is important to make sure that this look is not overdone or it might turn into a fashion emergency.

Fifty Shades of Grey Movie is in the Works

     After the long wait, the Fifty Shades of Grey movie was finally in the works. Universal Pictures and Focus Features officially announced the project. In addition, the task of writing the controversial script is given to the British actress Kelly Marcel. She was previously the pilot episode writer for the Terra Nova TV series. Other than that, Marcel also wrote the script of Saving Mr. Banks, which is an upcoming Walt Disney biopic. 

    To state a fact, fans are hoping that the movie version will not disappoint. Moreover, this will create a media storm for the probable mixed reviews. For those who were yet to know, the movie project is based on the erotic novel trilogy of Erika Leonard who uses E.L. James as a pseudonym. Her novel trilogy has sold more than 30 million copies all over the world. In addition, the trilogy has beaten the Harry Potter series as the fastest selling paperback. The rights of the novels were already sold to 37 countries. This proves its success, which catapulted Fifty Shades as a bestseller. The story revolves around two characters, namely Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey. Either Ryan Gosling or Aaron Johnson already nabbed the male title role according ongoing hearsays. Other than that, some say that Angelina Jolie is set to direct the film. Those who would like to watch the film should be informed that it is not a typical romantic story. To provide an insight, the readers are introduced to the two characters early on in the novel. The story would tackle bondage, discipline, sadism and masochistic (BDSM) themes. Those who are curious about the plot should read the story for some enlightenment. However, as a simple spoiler, they would know early on that Anastacia is a young virgin while Christian is a brooding yet charismatic billionaire who has a fetish for sexual adventure. 

     The contrasting dispositions of the two will surely ignite a fiery difference that has titillated the imagination of the readers. This is one of the main reasons on why the production of the said movie is making a fuss amongst fans. Not to mention that it would be exciting if the fans were provided with some clues regarding the actor who will play the role of Christian Grey.
