Glamour and style is big in the celeb world, but even the rich and famous get it wrong sometimes. Even with stylists around them, many A-list stars don’t know how to dress for a specific location or occasion and end up embarrassing themselves terribly.

Check out these horrendous fashion faux pas. Cringe!

Supermodel Naomi Campbell shocked animal lovers everywhere when she was snapped wearing fur after posing for a PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) ad. The star modelled a selection of coats made from Russian saple, as part of a campaign for designer Dennis Basso, whose creations sell for up to $200,000 each. The catwalk beauty is not the only celeb to have been caught out donning animals skins with Madonna, Rihanna and Kanye West all named on PETA’s Worst-Dressed lists.

If you want a glamorous outfit without wearing a dead animal round your neck, faux fur is all the range these days. Now you can look a million dollars without running the risk of illegally buying the glossy coat of an endangered species. Read the rest of this entry »

Celebrific Lowdown – May 20, 2010


Supermodel Naomi Campbell might have a problem on her hands. She's been asked to testify at an international war crimes trial because she might have received a "blood diamond" from an African warlord. In fact, Campbell might have received several uncut diamonds, according to a modeling agent, Carole White. Actress Mia Farrow might also be called to the trial, as a witness. If that news makes you think too hard like it did me, just concentrate onthe pic of a naked Naomi above.

Lindsay Lohan has had a hard week of partying in Cannes, and trying to come up with creative excuses for why she didn't make it back to LA this morning for her court hearing. While the judge in her case did issue an arrest warrant, Lindsay's bail deposit (10% of the $100K) has been paid and the warrant was recalled. So she won't be arrested up on her return, but she sure has some 'splainin to do, particularly the statement to US Magazine that her father had someone steal her passport.

Jennifer Aniston's age must be catching up. She actually asked to be retouched on her new film, The Switch (Aug 20th), after watching cuts. Ah well, it's all relative, I guess. Seriously, I could have sworn that 'yesterday' she was only 30-something and vibrant. Now she's 40-something. And still pretty vibrant, if you ask me. Many women would be happy to look as youthful as she still does. Anyway, here's a gratuitous pic of her, looking every bit of a film goddess.

It's understandable that doctors would be worried that Kelly Preston is pregnant at 47, but she has already had two children, so being pregnant is said to be easier. (My grandmother had her 9th at 45.) However, doctors are concerned for Preston because older pregnancies bring increased risk of illnesses such as gestational diabetes. Increase of Down's Syndrome in the child is also an issue. This makes me wonder how several 60-70 year old women have been having children thanks to advances in fertility science.

Miley Cyrus for Lilith Fair? Gahhh!! What a huge disappointment for a music festival that I have the utmost respect for. Or had. Sarah McLachlan's eaten too many vegetarian meals and lost her mind. I have never heard Miley Cyrus' music but I know I'd never associate her with any single artist ever attached to the Lilith Fair. It's not like the girl's head isn't big enough. But maybe Sarah's 8 year-old daughter, India, has something to do with the request. Then again, Miley did work with rapper Lil Jon to remix her new single, "Can't be Tamed." Maybe she'll gain some big girl cred in a way that wearing corsets and grinding her underage body into a adult man won't give her.

Chris Brown: Supah-model

Naomi spits at police

naomi_campbell.jpg

Naomi Campbell, supermodel, lost her poise at the airport — assaulting a police officer, and then spitting at other cops who came to the scene. (This is her second assault charge.)

So not glamorous, though her reps say that she was practically provoked. She was flying to L.A. for a memorial service, understandably distressed by the sad circumstances of her flight, when the airport lost her luggage. Police, on the other hand, said the was “obnoxious” from the beginning because she wasn’t allowed in the VIP lounge.

She was taken into custody and then released on bail.
