It would take a trained eye to spot any of these celebrities , let alone go on a full-on stalk mode especially when they have all the incognito tricks under their sleeves .Learning the art of disguise and blending in to evade the peering eyes of the public and the scrutinizing lenses of the media, has taught many celebs  countless ways to go out and just be themselves.

The hoodie, the baseball cap and bug eye sunglasses, floppy hats and even more over the top was Michael Jackson’s mummified get up.  Can’t really blame them for their  futile attempts on disguise, as they don’t always have their best faces on.

Glossy magazine covers can be very misleading, thanks to the wonders of airbrush and photoshop.  You’d be surprised how your favourite pin up celebrity gals look sans the magic touch of a make-up artist and a hairstylist.  Make-up may just as well be  a science than  art, when you see the big difference  of a dolled up face ready for the camera lens, and your celebrity diva in sweat pants , bare faced  and in a mussed up ponytail .

Can you guess who these bare-faced women are?

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.

Oprah Winfrey

Few people in the entertainment industry have had as long and as influential a career as Oprah Winfrey. Her show has been nationally aired since 1986, her support for Barack Obama was significant enough to be considered a contributor to his Presidency and her fortune weighs up in its billions.

Kim Kardashian

Though Kim hasn't really done a great deal of note or been around for that much time, she has suddenly propelled herself into more celebrity magazine shots than Marilyn Monroe. With 37.5 million results showing up in Google, clearly she's one of the entertainment industry's most influential celebs right now.

Rihanna

Like Kim, Rhianna has also thundered to the top of the pile when it comes to paparazzi attention of late. While she's definitely got the musical success to back this up, it's probably fair to say that some of the attention comes more as a result of her personal life than her music.

Jay-Z & Beyonce

Everywhere and seemingly doing everything, Jay-Z and Beyonce come as a pair these days with a supersized celebrity influence to boot. Everything they produce turns to gold and anywhere they go they are trailed by a band of hardened photographers.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (Brangelina)

Though their influence seems to be on a downward spiral, as a combo they're just about keeping a hand in the mix. Their film output has slowed of recent years, but they still attract a lot of celebrity magazine attention. However, you know you've got a lot of clout when the media has to come up with a unified name for you as a couple.

Johnny Depp

In terms of cinema, has any other man been as culturally influential as Johnny Depp. Starring in both hugely successful and massively quirky roles he has helped to redefine the male acting world. His films have grossed more than $7 billion worldwide and he has been listed in the 2012 Guiness Book of Records as the highest paid actor. If that isn't enough, when Disney execs initially criticised his portrayal of Jack Sparrow in Pirates of the Caribbean he told them to either trust him or kick him off the film. The outcome was obvious.

Jennifer Lopez

Not really much of an obvious choice, however, as well as a career in music and film, she has also recently been confirmed to return next year as one of the judges of American Idol. She's also been linked with a role in Glee, so expect J.Lo's influence to rocket over the next year or so.

David Letterman

Surely a no brainer. David Letterman's show has been going since before the Cretaceous period and his show has been watched by more people than the moon landing. If that's not enough, appearances on The Late Show with David Letterman have been enough to make careers skyrocket.

Justin Bieber

While Justin Bieber's influence with anyone over a certain age is slim to non-existent, when it comes to kids and younger teenagers he's pretty much their entire world. With sneaky conversations with the like of Rhianna and David Beckham at LA Lakers games, he's definitely got the kind of influence to pull in the celebrity attention too. However, to cap it all, the video to his single Baby is the most viewed and talked about video on YouTube.

72! Yep, that’s the magic number. 72 days is all it boiled down to after all the hype and media circus we all got subjected to months before the actual wedding day of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries. Barely two and a half months down the road of their big fat wedding, Kim has confirmed that she is indeed, filing for divorce. Whispers have been ringing around that Kim and Kris were having issues with money , career and having babies. Let alone changing Kim’s last name to Mrs. Humphries was also on the debate table in the midst of the engagement and wedding preparations. Being at the peak of her career , her growing retail business, and effortlessly just being one of the hottest chics that have ever graced the screens … any guy would pretty much have a hard time keeping up with this Kardashian. Kim is filing divorce under irreconcilable differences. Really??? Nawh.

You would think that after 10million dollars, 450 guests and three Vera Wang weddng gowns, the couple would have made sure they sat down and pondered on this whole shebang of married life. But nah, they were too busy having their moments filmed and cashed in on almost every angle.
However much a sad fact for any marriage to go down the drain , it’s even sadder that their love story …if there ever was any true love … all that should’ve mattered turned into glitter dust and reduced to a statistic written down in media history as one of those short lived celebrity marriages we all get to shake our gossiping heads about.
If there was any good thing to come out of this marriage, they sure both got a nice fat pay check from the word go of their engagement . Of course, all that doesn’t really matter, right? This is all about a real love story … but with a chunky price tag.

Kim Kardashian has turned non-celebrity longevity into a science. You'd be hard pressed to find any other reality TV star who has enjoyed lasting popularity over doing nothing -- well, except for showing that impossibly large butt. But now you can add another achievement for Kardashian, the ability to turn a wedding into both an amazingly extravagant affair, and at the same time earn from it as well. Not that she's the first one to do it. Remember, Star Jones? But The Kardashian wedding's extravagance -- given that other people footed the bill -- is something for the books. If you don't believe me, just look at this cool infographic on the Kardashian wedding Vs an average wedding from the folks at Brilliance.com.

Kim began dating 26 year old New Jersey Nets forward, Humphries last December and from that point onwards, the couple  seemed to be  so closely drawn to each other .   This became quite evident when the 30 yr old fashion mogul decided to move to NYC  in her efforts to be close to her man.

Kim remained fervently mum on her engagement but was always very vocal on how she sees her guy and their relationship. She describes Humphries as a man with a really good heart and stated her beliefs in utmost trust, honesty and chemistry in any relationship.

Having her sisters Kourtney and Khloe basking in family life bliss, Kim has always expressed her desire for a family in her Tweets.  The woman certainly has had babies on the brain for a good while now and says: “I seriously thought by the time I was 30, I would have one baby and a bun in the oven…  “

And even before that,  Kim had posted a childhood photo of Kris Humphries on her Tweeter page adding a note that said: “ I want my son to look like this!”

Well, she certainly has had the rug rat meter up and running and we certainly wish her the best .  After  falling through a few relationships with football players Reggie Bush and Miles Austin, as well as Halle Berry’s model ex, Gabriel Aubury …  this is  truly IT with Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian.  So for all you fellas out there, just drown your heartbreak  with a stiff drink and chalk it up to tough luck.

The caption read: “Pic from my shoot yesterday…good kitty cat!”

What followed was a barrage of negative comments from people who think that she was hurting the cat with the way she was holding it.

Kim quickly defended herself on her blog by saying, “I have been getting negative comments regarding the way I was holding the kitty, but rest assured, the owner and vet were on set and showed me how to pick him up. The cat was not harmed in any way and is perfectly fine! I love animals and would never do anything to harm any animals.”

PETA begged to differ. “Kim Kardashian isn’t the only person who mistakenly thinks that because a mother cat picks up her kittens by the scruff of the neck that a supportive hand under the rump isn’t needed,” they said in a statement. “But I’ll bet plenty of fans have let her know—nicely, we hope!” they added.

Now we know how to pick up a cat.

“I’m sorry I did Playboy. I was uncomfortable,” she said.

She revealed that it was her mom Kris Jenner who pressured her into doing the photo shoot to promote their family’s reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which was still in the works when Kim’s Playboy cover came out.

“‘Go for it,’ my mother said, ‘They might never ask you again. Our show isn’t on the air yet. No one knows who you are. Do it and you’ll have these beautiful pictures to look at when you’re my age.’”

Talk about being a stage mother!

Perhaps Kim wasn’t used to the cameras yet. Now that she a reality TV pro, would you want to see her do another Playboy cover?

Kim Kardashian is one socialite and reality TV show star who has embraced social media to the fullest, often sharing details of her personal life on Twitter, as well as tons of hot photos taken during her work.

The photo of Kim holding a cat by the scruff of the neck above is hot, but I doubt if PETA will be calling her up anytime soon to be a spokesperson.

Yeah, we all know that handling a cat like Kardashian does in the pic doesn’t actually hurt the animal, but if you ask a feline expert, the best way to hold a cat is by cradling it in your arms. But we can see why she didn’t want to do that, since it would get cat hairs all over that super-revealing tight black corset she’s wearing.

Kim Kardashian nude photos? Try saying that in the presence of, well, just about any straight guy on the planet and watch what happens.

Sure, there have been nude photos of Kim Kardashian posted online before, mainly screenshots of an alleged intimate video of her and former beau Reggie Bush, but this time it appears the shapely reality show star posed for the camera with every intention of having the pics made public.

You can check out the photos of Kim Kardashian posing nude for Harpers Bazaar here.

There’s other news?

The 29-year-old reality star has always been a fan of the workout brand, so she was more than happy to be their newest endorser. She even hosted The Bravada International Launch Party held At The Whisper Lounge Restaurant at The Grove last week.

Her parents, Bruce Jenner and Kris Jenner, were there to support their Kimmy, who is still getting over her recent breakup with Reggie Bush. Kim admits she’s “such a workaholic right now,” which is probably one of the best ways to get over a breakup. If she’s not busy with work, she’s hitting the gym with Barry’s Boot Camp as her favorite workout of the moment.

Kim Kardashian spent quality time with her sisters Kourtney and Khloe on March 31. Her sisters were busy filming scenes for the reality show Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami.

Tennis star Serena Williams enjoyed her vacation in South Beach by playing football in the waves with her friends on April 2.

Reality star Whitney Port enjoyed some much-needed rest and relaxation as she hung out by the poolside with her gal pals on March 10.

Model Michelle Hunziker showed off her bikini bod to the paparazzi on April 7. She was spotted with a female friend as they frolicked by the beach.

The paparazzi sure know how to keep up with the Kardashians. During the weekend, the Kardashians were busy getting some sun in Miami on their own private yacht when they noticed some photographers trailing them.

Kim and Kourtney took turns with the binoculars to check out the snappers. The sisters, who obviously love being in the spotlight, gave a little wave at the papz to acknowledge their presence.

“Oh, Joy. Who is?” Tim responded. “I find that it’s—while it may have some sexiness to it—I find it’s largely vulgar. It has a cheapness and tawdriness.”

“Now I’m going to worry about the Kardashian sisters attacking me!” he added. Better yet, watch out for an angry mob of Kardashian fans dashing (pun intended) towards Tim with pitchforks!

Tim later narrowed his focus on one particular Kardashian—Kim. “She’s pretty, but she’s a poser. I find that when she’s moving, it all goes away for me.”

According to Yahoo! TV blogger Mike Ryan, Tim Gunn began his battle with everything Kardashian back in February during New York Fashion Week when he commented: “I just think the Kardashians have an absence of taste and I don’t think that should be perpetuated. I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty snob, but it bothers me.”

She is one busy gal! The latest project on Kim Kardashian’s list is her very own cupcake mix. At Famous Cupcakes in Beverly Hills last Friday, she launched The Kim Kardashian Vanilla Cupcake Mix, also known as Va-Va-Vanilla. No joke! What’s next, the Kim Kardashian microwavable popcorn?

She leaked, or better yet, tweeted photos of her latest bikini shoot with photographer Nick Saglimbeni. “[sic] At a photo shoot w @NickSaglimbeni HOT HOT HOT! Not even retouched yet!,” she tweeted 21 days ago.

Moments later, she tweeted another photo from the shoot:
“[sic] Another sneak peack from my shoot! Love this Brian Lichtenberg swim suit! SUPER SEXY & EDGY!”

Although not as flawless as those magazine covers/spreads that are Photoshopped to death, Kim’s photos are hot! It’s about time people saw real photos from a shoot before getting into the hands of the magazine production and editing crew.

She’s also preparing for the launch of her fragrance, aptly called Kim Kardashian. The perfume will be out in February, and fans can check out other info about the scent in Sephora’s website.

“This was one of the most exciting projects I’ve been involved in because I got to be so hands-on every step of the process from choosing scents to designing the bottle and the accent features,” Kim said in her website.

That’s one hardworking gal.

First, it was Paris Hilton’s Carl’s Jr. Spicy BBQ Burger commercial. If it wasn’t for the huge burger she devoured in the near end of the TVC, I would’ve thought it was another Night in Paris. That carwash commercial has been banned from TV, by the way.

Now it’s Kim Kardashian’s turn. Although it’s not as racy at Paris’, the commercial shows the sexy reality star sprawled in bed eating a Cranberry Apple Walnut Chicken Salad.

Whose ad do you like better?

Lady GaGa performed at the Fontainbleau Hotel in Miami Beach, Florida. It wasn’t just her new ‘do and getup that spelled extravagant; she reportedly checked in a $15,000-a-night penthouse.

Kim Kardashian at a Pre-New Year’s Eve Party at Eve Nightclub, Las Vegas.

Pam Anderson was escorted by some interesting creatures at the Gridlock 2010 New Year’s Eve bash at Paramount Studios, Hollywood.

Hot mommies Christina Aguilera and Nicole Richie left the little ones at home to party in Vegas. Nicole hosted the LAVO party with beau Joel Madden, while Christina hosted and performed at TAO.

Fergie (right) performed with the Black Eyed Peas at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. It was one of the many gigs they had for the New Year weekend.

Mariah Carey got her Mimi on at Madison Square Garden in New York, while hubby Nick Cannon played deejay offstage.

She may have gotten the crowd going at Times Square, but I’d stay away from the skintight suit if I were J.Lo.

Isn’t it funny how most celebrities hate the paparazzi, but if all the cameras stopped following them they would miss the lights? Even more humorous is how non-celebrities get more people following them than actual celebrities. Take for example, Kim Kardashian and Eva Longoria. Eva stars in an award-winning show and is married to a semi-famous athlete. Kim has sex with a has been singer, has the sextape leaked and is now more famous and well-known than Eva.

What happens if you are a celebrity in this case? I think you have no choice, but to join forces with the non-celeb just so you can get your picture taken as well. You know Eva doesn’t give two rats’ tails about Kim, but Kim has the photogs and the ego of a celeb needs to be fed.

Hey Kim, you know I don’t like you, but where are you going tonight? Would love to do a fake hug for the cameras and pretend we are friends so let me know what your plans are. Looking forward to it, should be fun. Toodles!

Former Miss Argentina, Solange Magnano, died Sunday after having elective surgery on her buttocks. Apparently it went wrong, really wrong. How does one die after having buttocks surgery you ask? It wasn’t the food she ate, but she suffered a pulmonary embolism when liquid that was injected into her buttocks “went to her lungs and brain.”

I don’t know about you, but I had to cross off Buttocks Surgery from my Xmas list and will now have to look into sticking with the calf implants. I hear squats are better for the buttocks anyways. And how often have you said “buttocks” in real life. Everyone has a butt, but what is the ocks all about? No jokes about what that rhymes with please, we are talking about a former Miss Argentina’s death here.

The world has suffered a great disservice when a wife and mother of 7-year old twins dies from butt surgery, but (oh man stop me now!) Kim Kardashian is still walking the planet after having 27 elective buttocks surgeries.

(via TMZ)

She has several tattoos, most of them she is proud of. She does regret, however, her “tramp stamp” on her lower back. She says the location could have been better. I’m still stuck on the Bentley comeback.
