Fame by Lady Gaga
Initially, Lady Gaga’s perfume was said to be inspired by the smell of blood and semen. The controversial singer later said Fame would smell like an “expensive hooker”. But the truth is that Fame, Lady Gaga’s first fragrance, combines notes of Tiger Orchid, apricot, incense, Atropa belladonna and saffron. Read the rest of this entry »

When it comes to entertainment and celebrities, at any one time there is almost always a pool of super influential people that seem to be either pulling all the strings or covering all of the magazines. Here’s a quick rundown of the top 10 most influential celebrities in entertainment at the moment:
Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell’s celebrity status and entertainment industry influence may have started relatively small in the UK, but he’s definitely spread his wings of late. The TV producer, entrepreneur and showbiz judge was the brainchild behind talent show The X Factor, which has now gone stateside in a massive way. As one of the main judges on the show he’s got the power to make people’s careers. Read the rest of this entry »
Alicia Keys: One Night Only
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Alicia Keys, Beyonce Knowles, Jay-Z, Jermaine Paul, Robin Thicke at 12:00 PM UTC on Mar, 18 2010
And what a smashing night it was! Fans who purchased tickets to Wednesday night’s concert at Madison Square Garden, New York City, were more than satisfied with the 29-year-old’s show.
She even brought a few friends along for the ride. Beyoncé surprised the crowd when she came out to perform “Put It In A Love Song” with Alicia Keys.
Jay-Z was also there to perform their massive hit duet, “Empire State of Mind.”
Other guest singers were Robin Thicke (above) and Jermaine Paul (below) who serenaded the crowd with their singles.
Did you catch the concert? What did you think?
Telephone: Too Hot To Handle?
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Beyonce Knowles, Lady Gaga at 12:00 PM UTC on Mar, 17 2010
Ever since Lady Gaga released her official “Telephone” video on March 11, it’s become a favorite topic online. The nine-minute video just has too many things going on at the same time—just like Gaga’s wardrobe. Here are the trending topics:
1. It has a whopping number of product placements. And yes, people have nothing better to do than to actually count them. According to Advertising Age, there are at least nine different brands appearing in the video. But despite the cornucopia of products, only a handful of brands paid for placements, Lady Gaga’s manager Troy Carter told Advertising Age. Among them are Miracle Whip and Virgin Mobile. The rest were simply given free airtime as thanks for a good partnership with Lady Gaga’s previous shows and projects.
2. The Youtube video has gained over 14,000,000 hits since it came out last week. Enough said.
3. Sexiness is all over the place—from the bra-flashing guards to the sexy jailbirds dressed in bondage attire.
4. Violence is all over the place—from fighting inmates to a poisoning spree.
5. Lady Gaga addresses the hermaphrodite issue. In one scene, the busty lady guards strip an already braless Gaga down to her bare essentials. One of them quips, “I told you she didn’t have a d—k.”
6. Gaga makes out with a girl—but then again, everybody does that these days.
7. Beyoncé is in it, and she was very, very naughty. Although I believe Lady Gaga could’ve done her magic on her own, Beyoncé’s role was interesting. She played the ruthless Honey B, who bailed Gaga out of jail so that they could go on a sexy, killing rampage.
8. Quentin Tarantino lent his bright yellow Chevrolet Silverado SS—a.k.a. The Pussy Wagon, the truck that the bride drives in Kill Bill: Volume 1. Beyoncé and Lady Gaga look much better driving that truck.
9. It has a lot of PG lines, such as the part where Beyonce’s ruthless character tells the guy she killed: “I knew you’d take all of my honey, you selfish motherf*****.”
10. The end of the video flashes “to be continued,” which means we’ll definitely see more of Jonas Akerlund’s creative Gaga genius.
11. MTV banned the video. Yes, sir, the famous music video network found the mini movie-cum-music video too provocative and controversial. I wonder if it has anything to do with Lady Gaga’s team choosing E! as the official channel where they premiered the video. According to reports, other music channels may also ban the video from being aired. Who cares? We still have Youtube.
If you haven’t seen the video yet, spare nine and a half minutes of your life watching below. You won’t regret it.
One fan said it best: “Anyone who’s ever seen her live can testify she is nothing like Britney Spears or Madonna. [Lady Gaga] really is everything.”
Welcome to Beyoncé’s Makeup Class
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Beyonce Knowles, Good Cause at 11:00 AM UTC on Mar, 10 2010
Do-gooder Beyoncé unveiled The Beyoncé Cosmetology Center at Phoenix House in Brooklyn, New York on Friday. She and her mother Tina, who is also her business partner, conceived this idea last year.
Not only is the program providing substance abuse treatment to drug and alcohol abuse patients, it will also offer a seven-month cosmetology training course for adult men and women, teaching the theory and practical skills that the recovering addicts need to pass the New York State Cosmetology Licensure Exam.

In her speech, Beyoncé talked about her mom’s early days when she owned a Houston beauty salon. “I remember my mother’s hair salon and the stories all the women would tell,” she said in her emotional speech. “How they laughed and cried together and left looking beautiful. I loved spending time at the salon.”
Since Beyoncé is a spokesperson for L’Oréal Paris, the beauty brand is generously providing the products for the classes.
Beyonce and Alicia Keys Take Over Rio
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Alicia Keys, Beyonce Knowles at 11:00 AM UTC on Feb, 12 2010
I envy these girls. Not only are they shooting a new music video together, they are also spending the week partying carnival-style at Rio de Janeiro.
According to RCA Music Group’s publicist Sheri Ladner, Beyonce and Alicia Keys are shooting the official music video for “Put It In A Love Song,” a track from Alicia’s latest album, The Element of Freedom.
That isn’t the only agenda on their list. The two will also be attending a ball at the Copacabana Palace Hotel with model Kate Moss, who will be flying in Brazil soon.
Check out Beyonce’s colorful costumes and behind-the-scenes photos of the video shoot here.
Beyonce Turns Up The Heat
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Beyonce Knowles at 12:00 PM UTC on Feb, 04 2010
Her TV commercial is hot.
It’s quite short and leaves a lot hanging, but I guess that was part of the ploy to make you go after Beyonce’s new perfume, Heat.
Beyonce was busy attending to her guests at “Beyonce Heat: Catch the Fever” at 15 Union Square West New York City last Tuesday where she officially launched the product. But it’s not just about the eau de parfum. If you visit Heat’s official website, you’ll find that there also is a sparkling body lotion.
Top notes are red vanilla orchid, magnolia, neroli, and blush peach. Mid notes are honeysuckle nectar, almond macaroon, and crème de musk, while base notes are giant sequoia milkwood, tonka bean, and amber. If you want a shorter description, then most reviews say that the scent is “sweet, creamy, fruity, and floral.” Sounds like a winner to me.
Beyonce Goes Gaga For Telephone
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Beyonce Knowles, Lady Gaga at 9:00 AM UTC on Feb, 04 2010
Two of the music industry’s hottest booties are back for their second collaboration. After the success of Beyonce and Lady Gaga’s “Videophone,” the girls are back for more music- and video-making. This time they’ve got their eyes on another gadget—the telephone.
According to NY Mag, the new music video, “Telephone,” could be a continuation of Lady Gaga’s hit “Paparazzi,” where she poisons her lover. In “Telephone,” Lady Gaga’s character is sent to prison, but soon gets rescued by the bombshell played by none other than Beyonce.
As you wait for the video to wrap up, check out official behind-the-scenes photos here.
Grammy Awards Best Dressed
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Awards & Accolades, Beyonce Knowles, Carrie Underwood, Chantel “Chani” Christie, Fergie, Heidi Klum, Jennifer Nettles, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, The Red Carpet at 11:00 AM UTC on Feb, 01 2010
Last night’s gathering of entertainers brought out a new trend for red-carpet dressing. Perhaps it’s the 2010 bug where fashionistas are out to challenge the conventional “glam-glam-glam” mantra. Here are my top 10 picks for the Grammy’s best dressed, in no particular order.
As Fergie posed with the rest of the Black Eyed Peas, her cobalt blue Emilio Pucci mini was simply Fergilious.
Miley Cyrus was definitely ready to “Party In The USA” with her teal Hervé Léger by Max Azria dress.
Carrie Underwood sure had a penchant for straps that night. Her Edition by Georges Chakra gown looked great, especially when she received her Best Country Collaboration award.
Before the show, Katy Perry tweeted: “[sic] I’m excited 4 today, all the performances r going to be fab & beauty is gonna be on point! Today I’m channeling Indian Betty Paige princess!” It looks like her Zac Posen dress did the job.
Multi-winner Taylor Swift glittered, literally, with her off-shoulder KaufmanFranco gown.
Sleeves are back on the red carpet style radar. Beyonce, who got the most nods at the Grammys, stood out with her detailed fishtail gown.
Rihanna brushed off rumors that she was blacklisted from the Grammys. Her Elie Saab Haute Couture gown made the feathered collar a must-have fashion detail.
Jennifer Nettles of The Sugarland gets a little help from Posh Spice with this Victoria Beckham cutout dress.
Hot mama Heidi Klum’s nude Emilio Pucci minidress stood out, thanks to the stylish embellishments.
Newbie singer Chantel “Chani” Christie’s bodice minidress spelled hot.
See the winners and highlights here.
Party For A Cause
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Beyonce Knowles, Good Cause, Jay-Z, Kevin Barnes, Matt Levine, Solange Knowles at 9:00 AM UTC on Feb, 01 2010
Who says you can’t raise funds for Haiti while hitting the clubs? Last week Hollywood celebs and their friends clinked glasses and danced the night away at The Eldridge in New York City for a Haiti benefit party.
Hosted by Matt Levine, Solange Knowles, and Kevin Barnes, the party’s proceeds went straight to Yele, singer Wyclef Jean’s charity organization for Haiti earthquake victims. Guests included Jay-Z and Beyonce Knowles, who did a semi-reunion of Destiny’s Child when she sang with Michelle Williams. Solange played DJ the whole night, as she spun Michael Jackson and Prince tracks.
Check out the party photos here.
MTV Euro Music Awards Goes Wall to Wall
Posted by Kate Alvarez as Awards & Accolades, Beyonce Knowles, Green Day, Katy Perry, Leona Lewis, Music Happenings, The Red Carpet, Tokio Hotel at 4:05 PM UTC on Nov, 09 2009
In just three hours, 10,000 people grabbed the free passes to the 2009 MTV European Music Awards in Berlin, in honor of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. How ironic that the organizers mounted a 12-foot wall at the venue to keep those without tickets from watching the show.
That didn’t stop the musical guests from giving earth-shaking performances. Beyonce Knowles not only bagged the best female artist award and best song award for “Halo,†but also wowed the audience with her racy red outfit as she performed her hit “Sweet Dreams.â€
Wall-to-wall would be an understatement for Katy Perry’s costume changes and hosting skills. From her various red carpet frocks to her glittering stage costumes, Perry’s wardrobe did not disappoint fans that night.
Other highlights included performances by Green Day, Tokio Hotel and Leona Lewis. For a complete list of winners and a gallery of red carpet garbs, visit the official MTV Euro site.
Beyonce Set To Conquer Malaysia
Posted by Gina as Beyonce Knowles, Performances / Events at 5:53 PM UTC on Sep, 21 2009
Despite lots of protests, Beyonce is going to Malaysia to perform. Two years ago, she had to cancel a gig due to the concerns of the conservatives about her sexy get ups during concerts. This time around, nothing’s gonna stop her. We’re behind you!
Kanye West Apologizes Again
Posted by Gina as Awards & Accolades, Ben Stiller, Beyonce Knowles, Kanye West, Mischief, Taylor Swift at 3:14 PM UTC on Sep, 15 2009
The guy must be coming to his senses. After he apologized in his blog, he published another post on Monday where he wrote:
“I feel like Ben Stiller in Meet the Parents when he messed up everything and Robert De Niro asked him to leave… That was Taylor’s moment and I had no right in any way to take it from her. I am truly sorry.”
Yeah, I felt sorry for Gaylord Focker – he was only trying to impress his future in-laws. But what was Kanye trying to do that night, impress Beyonce?
Kanye West Ruins Taylor Swift’s VMA Speech
Posted by Gina as Awards & Accolades, Beyonce Knowles, Kanye West, Mischief, Taylor Swift at 11:21 AM UTC on Sep, 14 2009
Country hottie Taylor Swift has come into her own, as attested to by her win at this year’s VMA. Unfortunately, Kanye West decided to be the rude person that he tends to be and interrupted her in the middle of her speech. He said:
“Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’m [going to] let you finish — but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.”
Needless to say, everyone took Taylor’s side and Kanye got thrown out. Why does he do these things???
Jessica Biel: Most Dangerous Celebrity
Posted by Gina as Barack Obama, Beyonce Knowles, Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Biel, Jessica Simpson, Michelle Obama, Technical Difficulties, Tid Bits & News, Tom Brady at 11:45 AM UTC on Aug, 26 2009
It’s probably not what you’re thinking. McAfee Inc., known for its virus scanner, conducted a survey about celebrities which will most likely get you malware over the Internet if you do a search on them. At the top of the list, we have Jessica Biel, who is followed closely by Beyonce, Jennifer Aniston, Tom Brady and Jessica Simpson. You can safely search for the First Couple, though.
Beyonce: Waxy Lady
Posted by Gina as Beyonce Knowles, Career Moves at 6:48 AM UTC on Mar, 06 2009
Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum is set to open in Hollywood sometime this year and guess who is one of the first to get waxed out? None other than waxy foxy lady Beyonce Knowles. Jamie Foxx is also one of them.
Messy Beyonce?
Posted by Gina as Beyonce Knowles, For Appearances Sake, Tid Bits & News at 7:25 AM UTC on Mar, 02 2009
No way! Every time we catch a glimpse of this girl, she is all made up, with not a strand of hair out of place. But, yes, she confesses that at home, she is most laid back – maybe a little too laid back for hubby Jay-Z, whom she describes as very very organized.
Justin Pays Beyonce A Visit
Posted by Gina as Beyonce Knowles, Celebrity Videos, Justin Timberlake, Performances / Events at 9:41 AM UTC on Jan, 29 2009
In her dressing room no less! By now, you probably have seen the SNL skit featuring Justin and Beyonce. You probably cracked up like the rest of the world but did you know that Beyonce had second thoughts about that skit? All it took to reassure her, though, was a visit from Justin. Good job!
