UPDATE: Australian-born model Miranda Kerr is wearing a neck brace following a car crash in LA.
The Nine Network is reporting that Miranda was with her assistant at the time of the accident and her young son Flynn was not in the car.
1. Gwyneth Paltrow: ‘We’re left with that specific hunger’
WARNING: the below contains celebrity ‘dietary’ advice. Do not try this at home kids.
“Muuuuummmmm, can we have some lollies, chocolate, RICE?”
Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed she avoids giving her children carbohydrates in the form of pasta, bread and rice – even though they still crave it.
The basis for Paltrow ruling out carbs in all their glorious forms is that everyone in her household suffers from intolerance to gluten, dairy and chicken’s eggs.
“Sometimes when my family is not eating pasta, bread or processed grains like white rice, we’re left with that specific hunger that comes with avoiding carbs,” Paltrow says.
Confusingly she devotes an entire chapter to grains in her new cookbook, It’s All Good.
She writes: “Every single nutritionist, doctor and health-conscious person I have ever come across . . . seems to concur that (gluten) is tough on the system and many of us are at best intolerant of it and at worst allergic to it.”
So It’s Not All Good then?
Cue the nutritional backlash.
2. Jada Pinkett Smith has taken to her Facebook page to slam social media for bullying Justin Bieber and Rihanna. Read what she has to say about them being “attacked” and “shamed” here.
3. Another day, AnOther offensive magazine editorial.
This time actress Michelle Williams (nooooo not her) has appeared on the cover of AnOther magazine in “Redface”.
Williams has been dressed in a braided wig, beads, turkey feathers and displays an expression that mirrors early portraits of Native American women.
Ruth Hopkins on Jezebel wrote:
“AnOther Magazine and Michelle Williams have made a serious blunder here. The cover should be pulled, and all parties involved owe the American Indian community an apology.
‘Am I glad that unlike most racist, stereotypical caricatures of American Indians in pop culture today, Michelle is not practically naked? Yes — but just as Blackface is never okay, Redface is never okay. Ever.”
Are magazine sales so bad that editors/stylists have to resort to creating offensive content to gain attention? Or is there someone calling the shots on these type of editorials that seriously thinks all of this is so ahhh-mazing?
5. Kim Basinger’s daughter is now a model but what she says about it is chilling4. Rihanna has been doing charity work in her own unique fashion – without any pants on. See the pic here.
Ireland Baldwin, the 17-year-old daughter of Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin, has been signed to IMG Models – the same New York model agency that represents Miranda Kerr, Kirsty Hume, Kate Moss and Karlie Kloss.
“Officially working for @TwoManagement and @IMGmodels ! I’m blessed, happy, and ready to WEEEEERK,” the teenager wrote on her Twitter account last week.
What is disturbing about is she recently captioned an Instagram picture of herself wearing hot pants and a Nike crop top as: “I’ve got a ways to go, but hard work is paying off! Eating clean and training hard!”
Erm, “I’ve got a ways to go?” As Editorial Director and blogger, Vanessa Raphaely puts it, *silent scream of the day*.
6.Rebel Wilson has filmed a hilarious promo for her hosting gig at the MTV Music Awards, straddling her man-crush Channing Tatum in a car. See it here.
7. Pointless study of the day: 80% women wait a month before letting their new BF see them without make up
Go on fess up, have you replaced the bible in your bedside table with a make up compact, foundation stick or lip gloss?
A study, not surprisingly from a semi-permanent make up company (with clearly nothing to gain from it) has found 80% of women wait a month before letting their new boyfriend see them without make up.
Depressingly, over three-quarters of female respondents feel that society expects women to wear make-up and 68 per cent of women feel ‘naked’ without their warpaint.
Want I want to know is, do they also have Teflon pillowcases? How do they avoid mascara/foundation/lipgloss stains. And if you’ve applied make up before you go to bed, how do you wake up fresh-faced and not like Pennywise (the scary clown in Stephen King’s It)?
8. And, last but not least, the outrageous safe-sex video for seniors that will make you blush. Watch it here.

I really don't get it why people get so upset when 'white' people dress up as 'black' people. I mean, the majority of times this happens is not in a tormenting, mean-spirited way, but perhaps in ways of art (like the pic above). I also reckon that there's a level of respect needed to feel comfortable dressing that way. Eg I bet you wouldn't have caught a single member of the KKK dressing up as a 'black' person.
I doubt there would be any issue if it was an Asian/indian/Amurrican indian/african/etc dressed up in clothes considered "white"
