Pregnant Celebrities Who Love Heels

Jessica Simpson Pregnant

Jessica Simpson


There is something to be said about high heels, and even women who will readily admit that heels can kill your feet will also say that heels give them an extra oomph. Whether you’re walking on the red carpet, the catwalk, or an ordinary street, the right pair of high heels just might make you feel a tad better about yourself.

But what about when you find out that you are pregnant? And what about when your belly starts showing, not to mention that your body starts feeling the weight? Read the rest of this entry »



Pre-Wedding Shape Up Tips from Jessica Biel

There isn’t anything you can do to hide love and the bling it brings into your life. No matter how our fave celebrity couples try to keep romance on the down low, that significant bauble is pretty darn hard not to notice!

Even after months from getting engaged, Hollywood power couple Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have been playing it low key with their engagement last year.

Much of our congratulatory toast to the super fit couple who seem to just have missed out on letting tinsel town get a glimpse of the engagement rock on 30 year old Jessica Biel.

It was only on a recent errand run in LA that Biel officially flashed us the big blinding bauble and shared her secret to staying in shape before she walks down the aisle with her hottie hubbie to be.

Jessica reveals it is the adventure of a work out that keeps her from getting bored with a routine. Discovering ways to enjoy the outdoors  and incorporating physical activity on any day at the park such as biking or following a short hiking trail does wonders.

Not everyone is an athlete but training for strength will definitely give you some to-die-for muscles in all the right places and makes your body look leaner. Biel opts for hardcore strength training exercises such as walking lunges that can get those glutes in tip top shape. Light weights and more reps is the key to her lean frame.

And after all that, this super body actress alternates her work out with yoga for muscle lengthening and pairs it with a sensible diet of  healthy fresh food. Breakfast with complex carbs, fruits for munchies, and good ole fish and lots of greens for a light dinner.  But of course, everyone has to have those days when you just got to have some guilty indulgence. Biel believes in having a cheat day and that’s just one day when she can have anything her heart desires to keep the balance. Life sans such a day according to this hottie bride to be, can sometimes drive anyone to a nutty edge.

After 2 marriages that didn’t work out so well for award winning actress Halle Berry, it seems love has found it’s way back into her life again. Just over the holidays, 45 yr old Berry gave  her big yes to Olivier Martinez but surprisingly enough the couple opted to keep the news to themselves.

Olivier Martinez , 46, finally broke the happy news at the opening of their restaurant , the Villa Azur in Miami.

Fate brought the two love birds together while they were working on Dark Tide.  It was in 2010 that they officially became a Hollywood dating power couple.

Apparently, there have been issues with regards to the engagement bauble, as according to Martinez, some jeweller has been wanting to put its name on the design of the ring. The actor has strongly stressed there is no truth the claim of the said jeweller and confirms that the ring is a an original design by Robert Mazlo.

The ring designer hails from the Martinez’ old neighbourhood in Saint Germain des Pres and is a much acclaimed artist who has done years and years of  work for a lot of royal families.

Halle Berry was married in 1993 for four years to major leagues baseball player David Justice and once again married R& B singer Eric Benet. Unfortunately, her last marriage only lasted for 2 years . She also has a 3 yr old daughter with recent ex boyfriend Gabriel Aubry. As for the suave French fiance’, Olivier Martinez was in a relationship with Kylie Minogue for a good number of years.

Hopefully, these two have found keepers in each other’s arms this time around.

Hollywood heart throbs are the bread and butter of the paparazzi and the juice of tabloids. Not a single one of them can escape the roving eye of cameras whenever they’re out on the town with their latest flame and flavour of the month. If you’re the type who stalks a certain celebrity, then you’re pretty much on top of his/her current dating life.
Keeping a relationship under the flashing lights of the camera and the peering eyes of the public has taken a toll on a lot of celebrity relationships. It’s a feat to keep any romance under close wraps for a good while until the said celebrity couple even gets the chance to go on a second date.
Josh Hartnett has always been one of Hollywood’s most eligible heart throbs. But for some reason, this man has some sneaky tricks up his sleeve as many of you wouldn’t even know he dated a number of Hollywood bombshells.
There are no secrets in Hollywood held for that long and fresh out of the dating bag is Josh Hartnett and Amanda Seyfried. Where did that come from? Heh, no one knew the couple were working on a sweet romance since January as they were apparently set up by a friend.
And just to add more to your celebrity dating trivia on the very private Josh Hartnett, back in 2007 – he was spending some sweet loving in LA, and New York and a romantic getaway in Turks and Caicos together with, guess who? Penelope Cruz! Bet you didn’t even smell that at all.
In the same year, while promoting his vampire inspired thriller 30 Days of Night, word got around that the actor was dating Rihanna. It was in November 2007 that The Mirror had the singer admitting they were more than just friends and she took it all back in full denial of a relationship at an interview with Allure.
Scarlet Johansson was notably dating Josh Hartnett in 2005 but their relationship only lasted for a year blaming it on busy schedules and too much time apart to make it work.

Celebrities Who Are Frugal

Talk about celebrities and two things will usually come to mind — fame and money. We expect celebrities to not just be extremely famous but also swimming in money. I’m sure that you’re mental picture of a celebrity is one that is living the high life – jetsetting all over the globe, enjoying all of the great comforts and buying stuff left and right. It may be the expected profile of a celebrity but you’ll be surprised to know that there are many celebrities out there that actually know what the word “frugality” means and actually apply it in their lives.

Looks like there will be no wedding bells for the belle of the tennis court and her crooner lovey.  Although going fairly strong with their 11 year relationship, Enrique Iglesias won’t be popping the question any time soon to Anna Kournikova.

Although the pair have been quite the elusive couple to the media, Enrique explains himself as to why marriage won’t be in the works for him and Anna. Coming from divorced parents, Iglesias partly attributes his views on marriage on  this and says marriage doesn’t make you love someone more due to a piece of paper.

Their commitment doesn’t make their relationship any less than a married couple.  The singer also points out how society has been more accepting of kids born into parents who aren’t married as the difference lies in the matter being a good parent.

Apparently, many have been nagging the 36 year old singer about his previous reference to his 30 yr old tennis belle as his wife. This took place at  a concert in Russia back in April of 2011.  Iglesias explains that the word “wife” would have made more sweet sense to his audience than calling Anna his “girl”

Of course, it takes two to tango in an 11 year committed relationship.  It takes a special kind of girl to keep Enrique Iglesias crooning at her feet. And this definitely makes Anna Kournikova a perfect match since she shares his same views on marriage. The tennis pin up girl says as long as she’s in a truly happy relationship, it is all that actually matters even without that legally binding piece of paper to show their love and commitment.

I wonder though, how these two would take to big money deals sans a contract, since it just a piece of paper?

7 Celebrities with Health Conditions

Celebrities are perfect. They have no flaws. They are always at their best, even upon waking up.

Stupid as those statements may sound, they do come up in the minds of Jane and Joe Average, if only because of what is portrayed by the media. Now and then, we do come upon pieces showing just how human celebrities are. Humans like you and me.

This is not to downplay the health condition of any celebrity in this list. Neither is it to make fun of them, but if you feel a slight sense of schadenfreude, no one will make any judgements for sure. So here are some celebrities with health conditions, if it makes you feel any better that they are human after all.
