Jessica Simpson in India

Jessica Simpson is touring the world in a bid to understand different cultures and what is considered beautiful in each.
She’s currently in Mumbai, India, to film her reality TV show, The Price of Beauty.
Jessica went all out and showed up at a party thrown in her honour with both hands decorated by henna, and a “bindi” on her forehead.
Well, there’s that famous saying, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do". Maybe all this globe trotting will teach Jessica a thing or two, and she’ll (hopefully) be smarter after the whole experience (remember how she couldn't tell the difference between tuna and chicken on the reality show with her ex husband, Nick Lachey?).
If nothing else, we might get an interesting TV show out of it. Any takers?

Oh No! Paris the Singer??

Guess who’s coming out with their own album?
None other than hotel heiress, Paris Hilton.
Paris claims she’s written all the songs herself, and her album is inspired by Kylie Minogue.
As if that weren’t enough, she’s even going to be performing next year.
Looking forward to this, anyone??

Lily Allen - Mean Girl?

Lily Allen was recently in Amsterdam for a performance.
A very avid fan called Zac, who owns a website called Oh-Lily.Com, wanted nothing more but to give her a fanbook that he had put together for her. The fanbook was compiled by him and contained messages for the singer from many of her fans from all over the world. Zac was sure Lily would be thrilled when she saw the book, and set out to make that happen.
Zac first tried presenting her with his loving creation when he saw her walking towards the entrance to the venue but was stopped by some of her security personnel. He then tried reaching out to her and told her he just wanted her to have the fanbook, which Lily hurriedly dismissed by saying she had to go inside.
Not one to give up, Zac tried again once the concert was underway.
This time he threw the book on stage, very close to where Lily was.
Zac claims there was no way Lily would have missed the book. That didn't stop her from walking over it when she exited the stage though. Zac thinks she probably stepped on it by accident, and he still wants nothing more than for her to have the book.
Zac even took to his website later to ask Lily to email, tweet, or post something to let him know that she had infact taken the book, and all his hard work hadn't been in vain.
While it's really sweet on his part to still care and not hate on her, it seems like he really is wasting his time.
Get over yourself, or whatever it is you need to get over Lily! You are what you are because of your fans you know, so you really should show them more gratitude and maybe even a bit of appreciation. Especially when they're running after you themselves just to shower you with nice messages. Learn some manners and act thankful when people show you they like you, instead of giving them such a rude reception!

No Texting While Driving Please!

Guess who was caught texting while driving?
David Beckham was snapped with both hands off the wheel while he texted and cruised around in California, where there is a law against using cell phones or any kind of hand held devices while on the road.
A similar law is going to be implemented in Ontario from today, so drivers on the roads here are going to have to resist such temptations too.
As for Beckham, well, he really should try to set a better example for everyone, especially since he's a celeb, and some people really do look up to some of them!

Lindsay Lohan Being Greedy

Everyone was very surprised when they found out fashion house Ungaro had hired Lindsay Lohan as a fashion consultant.
Lindsay even got to showcase the designs she had worked on in collaboration with the house during Paris fashion week.
The collection didn’t draw much praise, with most saying it wasn’t great, but it wasn’t horrendous either. In other words, it was mediocre at best.
For all those who have been puzzled by why a fashion house would sign train wreck Lindsay on, you're about to find out.
It seems like Lindsay signed herself on, because the fashion house isn’t paying her anything.
Lindsay even paid for her own plane ticket to Paris and hotel stay while she was there. She does get free clothes from the fashion house though, but nothing more.
Everyone has to start somewhere, so it’s alright if she isn’t getting paid yet. What is funny though, is the fact that Lindsay’s staff is trying to convince the fashion house into giving her a paycheck.
Ungaro is probably glad they decided not to pay her, especially since people weren’t too crazy about her “expertise” and the clothes it resulted in at the Paris fashion week.
Don't push it Lilo, and get real! Since your acting career isn’t going anywhere soon, there’s no harm in trying your hand at something else, but at least be grateful for being given a chance to do that, instead of trying to get your greedy hands on some cash right away!

Not Even Celebs are Safe from the Recession

Five years ago, Hollywood funny man Eddie Murphy put his New Jersey residence on sale for $30 million.
Recently however, he marked it down. Way down, that is.
His property is now on sale for half its original price, $15 million.
The mansion also includes a bowling alley and a recording studio.
Nicholas Cage’s Bel Air home also suffered a similar fate.
Cage had to reduce its price from $35 to $17.5 million, even though he paid much less for it (about $7 million) when he bought it in 1998.
Luckily for Cage though, someone bought his property, even if it was for less than his asking price. Murphy though, is still waiting for someone to give him a good (or atleast reasonable) deal on his place.
It’s good to know that the economy’s condition hasn’t even spared Hollywood celebrities. The recession has affected a lot of people, and the rich and famous are no exception.
Here’s hoping everyone manages to get through this rough time alright, and it passes by quick!

Plane Crashes a Few Minutes After Take Off from Sharjah Airport

A Sudanese cargo plane crashed shortly after take off from Sharjah International Airport yesterday.
The Boeing 707 was carrying cargo to Khartoum, but started having problems during take off.
The crash took the lives of all six crew members on board, including Captain Mohammad Ali Al Halthawi, who was a resident of Sharjah.
He leaves behind a wife and eight children, and relatives say he was a genuine, warm hearted man, whose house was always open to everyone.
Aviation experts and pilots are still debating the causes of the crash, but some suspect it could have been a result of too much cargo. Pilots say they have often seen cargo planes struggling to take off. Other potential causes are fuel leakage, and engine malfunction.
Eye witnesses, including another pilot, say it was obvious the captain realised his plane was not going to make it. Instead of letting it crash into a heavily populated area, he steered the plane so it nosedived straight into a clear stretch of road.
Onlookers watched in horror as the plane burst into flames. All this happened within minutes of taking off.
Such tragedies seem to be on the rise. With the world relying more and more on transport and technology, perhaps such incidents are bound to happen. That doesn’t make them any less shocking though, or any less tragic.
In many cases, there is someone in the situation who acts as a hero, and in this case, it was Captain Mohammad Ali Al Halthawi, who saved countless other lives, knowing full well he was giving up any chance of his own survival.
People like him make the world a better place for the rest of us, because they provide the silver lining in a situation as tragic and heartbreaking as this one.
Here’s hoping the families of all the deceased can find some peace and comfort as time goes on. Everyone’s prayers are going to be with them, that’s for sure.

Chris Brown Just Can't Stop Beating Down on Rihanna

It seems like Chris Brown still can’t stop beating down his ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
Just a few hours after Rihanna’s first single post break up, Russian Roulette, was released on the internet, Brown had an announcement of his own to make.
Brown tweeted that he’d be performing for the first time after everything that transpired sometime next week.
Could he really not have waited a day or two before unleashing his news on everyone? Brown’s timing seems to be just perfect. Suspiciously perfect, that is.
Grow up Chris! Let her have her moment without acting like a spoilt, bratty, five year old who throws a tantrum every time he sees another kid with a new toy.

MizzPinkx Thought Bubbles - 'Tis the Season

I’m not a winter person at all. Actually, I despise it.
The only thing about winter that makes me slightly happy is winter shopping. It’s that time of the year again, and I need to make a few changes to my wardrobe.
My first update was completed successfully today. I now have a pair of new winter shoes. The last ones I had were suede, and not surprisingly, got dirty really, really fast.
This time I opted for something more practical, something I won’t feel bad about getting dirty after a walk in the snow.
I'd probably still hate to get them soiled though, but that's just me being me.
Here’s a picture of the newest member to join my shoe closet. They’re part of the Snow Bucket line of Puma’s collection for this season.

Hope you like them!

And the Nobel Peace Prize Goes to...President Obama??

U.S President Barack Obama has been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009.
President Obama was in the running for the award only two weeks after he took over office. He has only been in office for nine months, and already has a Nobel Peace Prize to show for it.
Most people are quite puzzled by this new development, and are wondering exactly what President Obama did to deserve what is usually considered a very prestigious award.
