Things you’ll never see celebrities won’t be without

lizzie tanners on Jul-10-2008

Celebrities are the trends etters of this era regardless if the things they bring with them are high end or just out of a vintage store.

Well, they can live without some of these, but we’ll always see them with these essentials.  We really don’t know if they actually use them or they want to flaunt these things.

1.  Dogs

It’s like every celebrity has a dog they walk everyday either on a movie premiere or just going to buy coffee.  Also, their dogs have become somewhat their own children.  They have their own closets,  grooming accessories and yes, some are as famous as their proud and doting owners, hello TInkerbell?

2. Bikinis

Regardless if it’s summer or not, you’ll always see a paparazzi shot of celebrities in the beach wearing their bikinis.  They are not only judged by the fashion police on the red carpet but even in their two-piece or one-piece bikinis.  But, this maybe one motivation to continue on with the trips to the gym, right?

3.  Designer watches

They don’t actually use this to know what time is it, duh, they have their assistant for that purpose.  They sport the designer watches to flaunt that hey, I can afford this.  And let’s face it, it’s one of the first things you see on a person, celebrity or not.

4.  Custom mobile phones

The story isn’t really on the brand but on the design of the phone.  You can thanks Prada for the designs.

5.  Cars

The men are the ones who have made the cars a part of their fashion statement.  It’s like the male equivalent of high heeled shoes for women.  Who’s the living proof?  You have Jay Leno to watch for that, he drives a different car everyday to his show. Though the 6-figure car is still the preferable choice for a celebrity’s wheels, a new trend id emerging, the hybrid, thanks to the new “religion” in Hollywood which is “going green.”  But then, I wouldn’t mind driving this $400,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe.

6.  Designer bags

And the size matters too.  One can only wonder what’s inside those big, designer bags.

7.  Babies

I know, babies are not things, but their presence on the celebrity magazines and paparazzi photos are undeniable.  Take for example, Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale’s baby boy, Kingston. It’s like they want to prove that they are normal and can have families and can produce good-looking children as well.

Babyboom is in full mode in Hollywood

lizzie tanners on Jul-9-2008

It’s like a babies galore in Hollywood with the births of Nicole Kidman and Matthew McConaughey’s babies in just the beginning of this week.  Nicole gave birth to Sunday Rose Kidman Urban while Matthew’s model-girlfriend, Camila Alves gave birth to their son.  The trend of having babies first before getting married is also increasing.  Not that I have anything against it.  Just an observation.

With Ashlee Simpson and Gwen Stefani and Angelina Jolie on the way, the battle for the highest-paid celebrity newborn baby photo is on.  Good thing most of them donate the proceeds to charity.

10 most stylish faces in Hollywood

lizzie tanners on Jun-17-2008

I know God didn’t gave it all to one person, but with these faces, I’d like to think he did gave it all to some at least. They have the perfect face structure or the perfect eyes and we may be paying big bucks just to get those. And it’s not bad to dream and envy them even just for a while, right?

1. Zhang Ziyi

She maybe China’s best export in Hollywood so far. Her porcelain skin, those small eyes and her petite face spells how stylish her face is. She is one of the few Asian actresses to ever gain a good position in the Hollywood circle and her features were best noticed during the 2006 Academy awards.

2. Julia Roberts

We all know it’s her smile that makes her face so stylish. To add, she comes from a family of dental hygienists so it tells us that maintenance is also the key. But it’s not only her smile but her jawline that accentuates that wide smile that makes one not get tired looking at her for hours.

3. Charlize Theron

She is one of those blondes that looked better with short hair compared to the long list of blondes that sport long locks. No offense to them, mind you. What made her face so stylish was during her performance in her Oscar-winning performance in the movie, Monster. She put out all of her flaws and she never looked so perfect.

4. Orlando Bloom

His strong jawline and the rugged way his hair is cut makes his face so good to look at. The ruggedness of his looks makes him adorable and it’s a indulgence for those who go for the somewhat-messed-up look, he’s the man to draw.

5. Brad Pitt

Of course, he has to be in this list. Men should take lessons on style from him. He has managed to wear all haircuts imaginable - from mountain men to clean cut styles. Because like women, getting the right haircut will make a big and good difference.

6. Natalie Portman

Her perfect hair shape made her face one of the most stlylish. This was emphasized when she shaved her head for the movie, V for Vendetta. You’ve got to have a good-shaped head and a big doze of confidence to go bald.

7. Nicole Kidman

Nicole’s smooth and smoky skin is so noticeable accompanied with her small facial features makes her face stylish. Those eyes makes you want to gladly melt.

8. Jennifer Garner

The dimples and her jawline makes her one of the stylish faces to hit the screen. People would pay big money to have her dimples implanted in their faces. It makes one very innocent-looking and don’t we all want to appear innocent at some point.

9. Jessica Alba

Her dough eyes may make one succumb at her every wish. Plus,she looks good from every angle.

10. Aishwaya Rai

This Bollywood beauty isn’t afraid to shout her roots and her exotic beauty makes her unique. We have to watch out for her transition from the Indian entertainment world to Hollywood.

Celebrity dads you’d like to have kids with as well

lizzie tanners on Jun-12-2008

Ok, I’m not promoting adultery here.  The operative word is they are hot, hot!  And so in my previous post I have state my desire to find the perfect father,  I thought of why not stretch it?  Sure, those Hollywood bachelors are the perfect candidates to be hot dads but I don’t know, I find the ones who have kids more appealing, maybe it’s because I’ve seen how gorgeous the kids would be like or they just became hotter once they learned the diaper duty.

So, here is a list of the hottest celebrity fathers we’d love to take home, well, in our dreams anyway.

1.  Brad Pitt

I am not envious of Angelina Jolie because of her looks and talent, but because she bagged Brad Pitt!  I mean, she got him to adopt her kids and carried Shiloh and now a set of twins! He is not only drop dead gorgeous, but his work in reviving New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina is worth applauding for.

2.  Ben Affleck

His mature image after getting married to Jennifer Garner and being a dad to his daughter Violet just made him look gorgeous.  He makes more sense now as he makes documentaries about the impoverished children and his directorial skills in Gone, Baby, Gone.

3. David Beckham

If his breathtaking underwear ads doesn’t make him a hot father, I don’t know what will.  His humanitarian work in Africa makes him a role model for everyone. But his soccer skills to have faded when he transferred in the U.S.,  or am I the only one who thinks that way.

They are not only gorgeous fathers but responsible ones as well.  Even they are almost always in front of the camera, they have their humanitarian advocacies which they can impart to their children.
