Lily Allen wanted a fancy dress shop
Singer Lily Allen had plans to open a fancy dress shop before she settled for a vintage store.
The "Not Fair" singer, currently expecting her first child, recently opened a vintage clothing store with sister Sarah Owens, reports contactmusic.com.
"When I got pregnant, I decided to wind down a bit. So Sarah and I thought it would be a good moment to open the shop we'd been thinking of doing for years. Originally, it was going to be a fancy dress shop but because of our passion for vintage clothing, we thought this would work better," said Allen.
She says the decision to open a high-quality vintage store came after she saw many girls dressed like her.
"One of my 'light bulb' moments came when I went to a Christmas party and five people had the same high street dress on as I had. Plus the quality doesn't compare," she said

Kim Cattrall opens up about her sexual relationships
Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall has opened up about her sexual relationships and how she thought that sex would lead to love, but it never did. Cattrall, 54, revealed how she lost her virginity at 15 and was so disappointed by the experience that she did not expect it to be any better later.
“It is important to realise how important love is. I separated love from sex. Or just thought sex would lead to love. It did not, of course,” the Sun quoted her as saying. “Love gives you a chance to feel at ease and be prepared to try things. You cannot be so much at ease with someone you don’t really know. I would constantly make excuses for bad sexual experiences.”
“I wish I had not made an orgasm my only goal. It is more about all-round sexual fulfilment. I would advise girls not to lose confidence about their sex life. I had convinced myself that I was not sexual - and that sex was not that important,” she added.
She also said that talking is very vital and that she used to protect herself by limiting how much she felt, and added that she now knows not to be afraid to let go.

When Kim Kardashian wished she looked like sis Kourtney
Socialite Kim Kardashian wishes she looked more like her older sister Kourtney.
The 30-year-old is proud of her figure but grew up wishing she was as petite as her older sister, reports contactmusic.com.
"Kourtney and I are around the same age but I developed quicker and was curvier than her. There was never any weird competition, but there was just me wishing I looked a bit more like Kourtney," she said.

Christina Ricci can't see herself in mirror
Hollywood actress Christina Ricci doesn't like to look at herself in a mirror because of the body issues she suffered as a younger actress.
The "Sleepy Hollow" star, who battled eating disorder anorexia after she was catapulted to fame, couldn't stand seeing herself in a mirror because she had such low self-esteem about her looks and figure, reports celebrifi.com.
"For years, I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have a mirror in my room," said Ricci, who shot to fame when she was just 10 after starring in "Mermaids" alongside Cher, Winona Ryder and Bob Hoskins.
Even though she has got over her body issues, 30-year-old Ricci still doesn't like to see her reflection in a mirror.
"I still can't sit in a restaurant or someplace where I can catch my reflection. I get so paranoid," she said.
One role that helped her deal with her body hang-ups was her part in 2007 film "Black Snake Moan" - in which she starred opposite Samuel L. Jackson and had to appear for most of the movie in only her underwear.
"For that, I needed to lose any self-consciousness because I feel sometimes you can see that in a nude scene," she said.

Lindsay Lohan to spend New Year in Rehab
A California judge sent the 24-year-old troubled starlet back to rehab, telling her she was an addict and faced jail time if she relapsed again.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox ordered Lohan to remain at the Betty Ford Center until Jan. 3 and report back to court in late February.
"You are an addict, I hope you understand that," Fox told Lohan.
A prosecutor had advocated a six-month jail sentence for the "Mean Girls" star, but Fox opted for rehab after reviewing filings by probation and rehab officials and a letter written by Lohan. The actress cried after hearing the sentence.
The judge acknowledged that Lohan, 24, has been in-and-out of court and rehab since a pair of high-profile arrests in 2007.
He told the actress that he would not be manipulated by her, but was giving her a final chance to stay clean. "You're staying past the New Year's — there's a reason for that," Fox said.
Fox's sentence means Lohan will not be returning to a suburban Los Angeles women's jail for a fourth time. The judge had threatened to send Lohan to jail for 30 days for each drug test she skipped or failed.
He ordered her held for nearly a month during a hearing in September, but another judge overturned his ruling and Lohan has been free on bail and in inpatient rehab voluntarily since then.
Lohan is due back in court on February 25.

Kristen Stewart is comfortable stripping
Kristen Stewart had absolutely no feeling of discomfort while stripping. In fact she says she was surprised by how comfortable she felt while stripping for her latest movie role in "Welcome to the Rileys", in which she plays a teenage stripper.
"I think what surprised me most is probably the fact that I was so unaware of the fact that I was walking down the street with my robe opened and fishnets and beyond caring at all. I wasn`t scared.".
"I had known about this for a while before it got up and running. I’m really glad that it took a while to do so, because I think I was old enough to play the part - as opposed to not ready.
I think I would have shied away from too much, so it was shocking to find myself in situations like that, being completely fine with them," she said.
The 20-year-old revealed she visited a strip club for the first time to research her role, and even took pole-dancing classes - which she admits "hurt".
"I learned how to pole dance, although you never really see it. You do for a second; it’s like in silhouette. It really hurts and you don’t realise, of course, it’s really going to show," she said.

Kim Kardashian hates wearing wrong foundation color
Reality star Kim Kardashian has sincerely wished women never made beauty blunders by wearing the wrong foundation color. "I hate when women wear the wrong foundation color, it might be the worst thing on the planet when they wear their makeup too light," Usmagazine quoted Kardashian as telling the Toronto Sun.
Karadashian, who turns 30 on 21 October, 2010, helped launch Fusion Beauty Colorceuticals collection earlier this week in Toronto. Her beauty routine is Toner, cleanser and moisturizers by Perfect Skin, little makeup, foundation and blush, when not working.
And the one beauty must-have the reality starlet said was, "definitely blot paper or powder," She said it has inspired her to know that women refer to her website and Twitter account for beauty and fashion tips.
"I do it for fun and put up fun beauty tips and fashion, so it's really amazing that people read it and follow it", she added.

Singer Cheryl Cole is the latest star to be honoured with her own wax replica figure by famous museum Madame Tussauds.
The singer unveiled her wax statue worth $237,660 Wednesday here.
"I can't explain how strange it is! It will take a little while to take in," femalefirst.co.uk quoted her as saying.
The waxwork reflects Cheryl's glamourous look and is styled in a specially-created scarlet floor-length Jean-Paul Gaultier dress with heels. The model also has the 27-year-old pop star's trademark flowing locks and can be seen posing with hands on hips.
The wax figure has been placed in the A-list party area which includes doubles of Dame Helen Mirren, Robert Pattinson and Russell Brand.
"As the reaction of the public here today confirms, Cheryl is one of Britain's hottest celebrities and we're delighted to welcome her to Madame Tussauds London," said Liz Edwards, public relations manager at Madame Tussauds.
"We've been inundated with requests to feature her figure in the attraction and we expect it to quickly become one of the most popular here. Like the real Ms Cole, the figure is a knock out and will fit in perfectly with the glamorous line-up of stars in our A-List party area," she said.

Matthew Leone Died on Operating Table
Madina Lake rocker Matthew Leone died several times on the operating table as surgeons battled to save him following a savage beating.
The bassist was attacked in his native Chicago, Illinois in July (10) after he intervened in a domestic dispute between two strangers.
Now he's revealed he was so badly injured, he "flatlined" several timesduring surgery to his fractured skull - and experienced "peace and an energy" as his life slipped away.
Leone is suffering vertigo and partial facial paralysis as he recuperates from the incident, but he's aiming to be back on stage with his Madina Lake band mates early next year (11)
Leone tells Kerrang! magazine, "I was 15 minutes away from (dying), andthen the surgeons sawed my dome (head) open because I had extreme internal brain haemorrhaging... I also had a few flatlines on the operating table, resulting in some metaphysical experiences that were wildly interesting to see and feel. "I didn't see the pearly white gates with my mom and my bunnies waiting for me, but I did manage to see, feel and connect to a peace and an energy that I never knew existed - that affected me profoundly". Leone is suffering vertigo and partial facial paralysis as he recuperates from the incident, but he's aiming to be back on stage with his Madina Lake band mates early next year (11). He adds, "I have some intense rehabilitation ahead of me and I may have some more surgery, but my goal is to be back onstage by February and in the U.K. by March, when we release the new album World War Iii.
I can't wait to tour again!"

Jean Claude Van Damme suffers minor heart attack
Hollywood action man Jean Claude Van Damme is said to have suffered a minor heart attack on the set of his new film 'Weapon'. According to website Twitchfilm.net, the 50-year-old martial arts star collapsed on the set of the film in New Orleans and was taken to hospital.
Production on the movie was halted to allow Van Damme time to recover at home in Belgium with his wife, Gladys Portugues. The movie star, dubbed the 'Muscles From Brussels', was likely to make a full recovery, according to a source.
"I'm hearing that production of the film hasn't actually 'halted', it's just worked around Van Damme's close ups. The film is as good as done. I'm also told that Van Damme, 50, had been feeling tight pains in his chest and took himself to hospital to look into it so not as big a drama as (the) headlines may make out." News.com.au quoted Moviehole's Clint Morris as saying.

On kissing men vs. women, Moore says, "I don't really think it's different kissing a woman vs. a man. I don't think it really is.

Nelson Mandela inspires Naomi Campbell
Super model Naomi Campbell has revealed that she looks up to former South African president Nelson Mandela for inspiration when times get tough for her.
The British beauty has formed a close bond with Mandela since their meeting in early 1990s and he fondly refers to her as his "honorary granddaughter".
She says his fight for freedom during South Africa's apartheid gives her the strength to overcome her troubles, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"I have to pinch myself sometimes because who in the world doesn't want to know Nelson Mandela? But I've been extremely blessed to have been in his presence many times...He's someone who I often think about when things get tough and life isn't full of roses. Nothing can be as hard as what he went through," she said.
"Now, I don't have his constitution for forgiving. I hope one day to acquire that. But I don't hold grudges either. When things happen, I just kind of want to move away from them for a while and hope that things will come back in a more positive light," she said.

The star, 52, posed in a tiny tiger print bikini in 'Five Bucks A Day' - complete with a packet of cigarettes down the front of her bottoms.
'Five Bucks A Day' also stars Christopher Walken, Alessandro Nivola, Amanda Peet and former Superman star Dean Cain.

Angelina Jolie Gets Permission To Shoot In Bosnia
Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie is out of trouble now. The actress' directorial debut 'Romeo and Juliette', parts of which were supposed to be shot at Bosnia, was been stalled for non-completion of legal documents.
However, the latest reports suggest that work on the film can begin as Angelina Jolie has received the much-needed permit and will now be able to film in Bosnia.
“Romeo and Juliette” tells the story of a Bosnian Muslim woman in love with a Serb with the Bosnian War as the backdrop of the movie. As the story progresses, the woman is shown being raped by her lover. The trouble for the Angelina Jolie starrer began when Bakira Hasecic, a rape victim during the War and the President of the Women Victims of War Association situated in Sarajevo lodged a complaint with the ministry of Bosnia speaking against the content of the film. It was Angelina Jolie herself, who took the responsibility of clearing all doubts and erasing the offense that anyone may have felt after watching her film.
A representative from the sets of “Romeo and Juliette” says that not only the rape but also the love story between the Bosnian and the Serb will be shown in the film, in fact it is the love that they share that ultimately leads to the condemnation that the man inflicts upon the woman. According to the latest reports, the ministry of Bosnia seems to have understood the storyline and have agreed to issue a working permit to Angelina Jolie. The filming will begin in late November.

Rapper T.I. jailed for 11 months after violating probation with drug arrest
New York, Oct 16 : Rapper T.I. has been sent back to jail for 11 months for violating probation with drug arrest.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, Jr., previously served behind bars for 10 months on federal weapons charges, reports the New York Daily News.
A federal judge revoked the rap superstar's probation in reaction to his arrest last month in Los Angeles on suspicion of drug possession, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office said.
Before the judge's ruling, the Grammy winner had pleaded for mercy, telling the court that he needs help for drug addiction.
The rapper and record producer documented his drug addictions and legal problems on the MTV reality series, "T.I.'s Road to Redemption."
