Beyonce Gets Whitened for L'Oreal

Fri, 08 Aug 2008 13:43:27 -0500

Looks like L'Oreal may have a controversy brewing. They are denying they digitally lightened Beyonce's skin for an ad in the new issue of Elle magazine. It will be interesting to see what Beyonce has to say about this. She hasn't made any comments about it yet.

Beyonce originally signed on with L'Oreal in 2001 for a five year deal worth up to $4.7 million. It's amazing, but the initial contract is available online for all to see. The contract specifies that Beyonce must let L'Oreal know of "any radical changes to her hair any concert tour may necessitate" and that she has to maintain her hair "in excellent condition." She can't go near Revlon or Clairol products and must maintain "approximately the same physical appearance and health". It also gives L'Oreal the right to actually inspect Beyonce's hair as long as she gets two weeks notice.

The article names at least three of the top plastic surgeons in New York and provides us with a scoop on what aging celebrities (such as Madonna who turns 50 this year) are doing to keep their faces looking young. Check out the New New Face.

Brigitte Nielsen Gets Plastic Surgery (on TV)

Thu, 05 Jun 2008 10:43:32 -0500

Brigitte Nielsen, age 44, is planning to get a facelift, eye lift, breast lift, fat injections, liposuction and dental work.

And she wants us all to watch this as it happens. Nielson was married to Sylvester Stallone for a couple of years in the mid 1980's.

She tells Der Spiegel:

"I know I am the first female celebrity in the world who has allowed herself to be filmed like that in an operating theater. I know I will be breaking a taboo. But I’m sure that it will provoke a new discussion. It’s time things change. I feel 30 and want to look that way again.”

Nielsen posed for Playboy magazine 20 years ago and plans to do so again later this year to show off her new body. See some good photos of what she looks like now (with a scary close-up of all the wrinkles on her face) and how she looked when younger.

Fri, 02 May 2008 09:29:46 -0500

Selita Ebanks, age 25, is a top Victoria Secret model - one of the 'Victoria Secret Angels'. Last year she decided to get breast implants and went from an A-cup to a size 33C. She is the only Victoria Secret model that's been known to get breast implants.

Coincidentally, after the surgery she was chosen to model the "Very Sexy" Holiday Fantasy Bra Set, which is covered with diamonds and rubies (you can buy one for about $4.5 million).

Ebanks was engaged to rapper Nick Cannon but they split up in October. Cannon rebounded remarkably quickly and married (the much older, much richer, {a big-breasted http://celebritycosmeticsurgery.blogspot.com/2006/02/mariah-carey.html} and newly fit) Mariah Carey just a few days ago.
