Johnny Depp Has Style

stela — Tue, 20 Mar 2012 14:15:17 +0000

Johnny Depp is a true chameleon. He really knows how to deal with the roles he played. He is a true trend setter. One thing is for sure, no one can be Johnny Depp. Others would look really funny in that kind of outfit which he manged to carry on and look so sexy and manly. Come on, be real, who would look so great as a pirate in that funny clothes, other than Johnny Depp. Johnny Depp’s style is not great only in his roles, but he has style in real life too. He is the only actor who looks different when he appears on the red carpet and on premiers. Fashion may die but the style remains. This man has it. See how he evolved through years. Johnny Depp in 1994 and Johnny Depp in 2012 look great!

How to Get a Celebrity to Your Party

vedrisha — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 12:27:14 +0000

Celebrities are known for partying hard! If nothing, that is their job. They have to promote themselves. Celebrities make their living by getting paid for performing and very rarely do free events. The more famous the celebrity, the more you will pay. Imagine making $1 million or a 45 minute performance, or $500,000 for 2 hours of stand up comedy, or how about $25,000 just to shake hands with people at an exclusive party for 30 minutes. These are not pipe dreams, but actual figures of what many celebrities earn for their time. If you don’t have that money, Photoshop will do nicely.
Here is some pictures from a party with celebrity. Looks real, and some maybe are real. Try to find out which one is real and which one is a true story.

The Mysterious Tarim Mummies

vedrisha — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 11:39:51 +0000

The mummies discovered in the foothills of the Tian Shan Mountains in China were pretty mysterious ones. What was so mysterious about them is the fact that they date back to 4, 000 years ago.

The first mystery is in the way these mummies are unusually well preserved even though they were not being mummified. But this is due to climate. These mummies have been found on the edges of the Taklamakan Desert. When these ancient people buried their dead, the hot climate and rocky soil helped to keep the deceased’s body preserved, though it should have decomposed hundreds of years ago. Some of these corpses rival the Ancient Egyptian mummies in their extraordinary preserved state.

The second mystery is the attire in which they were buried. If the fact that some of them had blond hair and blue eyes hadn’t given away the fact that they were westerners that had settled in what is now Xinjiang, the clothing they wore when they were buried would have. One of the mummies, the Yingpan Man, was six feet six inches tall and wore a red tunic with gold embroidery. He also wore a gold foil burial mask. This burial clothing is far more indicative of western influence than of Eastern.

Bizarre Realistic Baby Dolls

stela — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 14:39:32 +0000

Designed primarily as toys for mothers-to-be and kids clothes mannequins, reborn dolls are rapidly gaining popularity among collectors and women who are unable to have their own kids.

Reborn dolls look just like real infants – except for their blank stare and no breathing. Depending on the quality and complicity of the doll its cost ranges from few hundreds to few thousand dollars.

This is giving me chiles. Just one look at these baby dolls are creeping me. This is way bizarre for my taste. Tell me if you find this normal. This is just to realistic not to be bizarre.

First reborns were made of ordinary toy dolls but soon specially designed sets for producing reborn dolls were developed. This set called “mold” consists of plastic head, arms and legs and a stuffed textile body.

An artist degreases the mold, slits holes for eyes and mouth and proceeds to the hardest part – the painting of a doll. Reborns are painted with acrylic and oil paints. First the artist creates the natural skin tone of an infant, and then he draws a unique ornament of veins, capillaries, spots and so on.

After that the artist fabricates the texture of the skin with a special varnish. Finally, he carefully implants finest mohair into the doll’s head and mounts two glass eyes.

Many psychologists warn against the usage of such dolls because the woman’s affection towards them may become obsessive and even lead to inability to care for one’s own children. There are numerous examples of women treating their reborn dolls as if they were alive and refusing to have real kids.

Female Ninja Warriors in Iran

vedrisha — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 15:14:08 +0000

The Iranians are getting serious. They’re training 3,000 female ninjas to defend the Iranian homeland should it become necessary. Scores of black-clad female “ninja” fighters whose ages range from 5 to 56 are just a handful of 3,000 women in Iran who are being trained as lethal warriors at a school in Tehran. They look scary all dressed like that and seeing just their eyes it is an interesting concept. I am sure that these women will not be making sandwiches in the kitchen. It looks like this would be rather an other way around story. Women in Iran have a 42% unemployment rate, are required to dress modestly by law and are subject to beating and even stonings for adultery. Their fight takes a back seat to what is going on in Iran. These women will be able t protect themselves.

10 Worst Valentine’s Gifts

stela — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 16:24:22 +0000

Tradition of giving something for Valentine’s Day is a tradition which is being practiced everywhere. Even the countries not celebrating Valentine’s day will contribute in showing some affection to the one they love. Be honest, who doesn’t like to get a gift, you are waiting for a Valentine’s gift since you were in kindergarten. You are beating your brain what to give to that special someone and we can’t help you a lot, because at the end you all know what women are into. Women love something personal, something what is only yours and only two of you will get it. There are always there universal gifts as flowers are, but be sure to know which she loves and not to be allergic on them.

1. A Vacuum Cleaner

Even if you think you’re being thoughtful by remembering that she mentioned needing a new Dyson a few months back, you can rest assured that she didn’t mean she wanted it as a Valentine’s Day gift. Trust me. Avoid any household appliances unless you want to end up with your fingers stuffed in her brand new blender.

2. A Pillow Head Of Your Face

Honestly, you are more likely to beat the crap out of it when you and your hunny get into an argument the next day.

3. A Gift Card

Unless you’re buying her a specific service like a manicure or massage, gift cards are the absolute least thoughtful gift you can give to someone. There’s zero thought required to give someone a plastic card worth fifty bucks at the local Target.
If your sister asks for a gift card at Christmas time, that’s fine. Get her the gift card. But your girlfriend or wife never wants a gift card for Valentine’s Day. You might as well just ask her to pick out her own present, slacker.

4. A Teddy Bear

Teddy bears and other stuffed animals are so cute, right? When you are a child! Most grown women do not need or want a stuffed toy for Valentine’s Day. On the off-chance she happens to like stuffed animals, she probably already owns an ample-sized collection (again, from childhood). Buy your wife or girlfriend a gift that makes her feel like the woman she wants to be, not the kid she once was.

5. A Gym Membership

This would be so thoughtful. Reminding your lady after diner, that she gained some wait. Great job! You know the all women, without any exception, think they are fat. You woman may look like a top model, but trust me she will not be pleased with her body and she will think something is wrong, and your gift will just prove her, she is right! No go with this!

6. Candy Bra or edible Undies

What he’s trying to say: Our relationship is purely sexual and/or there was a Spencer’s Gifts on the way home.

7. Cheap Jewelry

Giving the gift of cheap jewelry says only one thing about you: you’re cheap… in all areas of life. She’ll think you value your precious money more than her.

8. A Bathroom Scale

If you’re going this route, you’d better hope you spent plenty of time at the gym yourself because you’re going to need the muscles to carry all your stuff out of the apartment.

9. Candy or Flowers

That’s all well and good, but I’m telling you not to go this route. Don’t be a cliché. Be original. Ladies love originality and they love it when a man can think outside of the box. Flowers die. Candy just adds on the pounds. Be smart and find something meaningful and special for your lady on Valentine’s Day. Avoid the obvious (and every single one of the gifts on this list) and you’ll be a better boyfriend (or husband) for it. Trust me.

10. Nothing At All

This is the worst thing you can do!!!

10 Hollywood Stories of Good Girl Gone Bad

stela — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 14:43:03 +0000

All Hollywood girls start with that innocent, girl next door look. But, there must be something in the wind blowing over the City of Angels, which makes these good girls go bad. It is interesting to see how the transformation goes. They are all lovely, people are felling in love with them and the image they have created, but then all that fame, money and popularity seems to be taking its tribute. The girls go wild. Not everyone can handle all that.

1. Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay is probably the worst example of good girl gone bad. She had so much downs in these couple of years. Not sure if there was much good stuff said about her in the papers lately. This girl seems to be crushed. She began her career as a child fashion model before making her motion picture debut in Disney’s 1998 remake of The Parent Trap at the age of 11. Lohan gained further fame between 2003 and 2005 with leading roles in the films Freaky Friday, Mean Girls and Herbie: Fully Loaded, subsequently appearing in independent films including Robert Altman’s A Prairie Home Companion and Emilio Estevez’s Bobby…[Read More at Wikipedia] Her career is on stand by since 2007. We are waiting for Lindsay to come back on the right track. She wasn’t able to act since she was most of the time under the influence.

2. Emma Watson

Did Emma, to all of us best known as a little girl Hermiona, from world wide known saga of Harry Pother, got the “diva virus”? Hard to believe, but Emma became a really annoying and demanding “little star”. Everything started with her drunken photos and than a little bit of nudity came around. I’ve been wondering, did all the perverts just waited for her to turn 21 and than started spreading rumors, and gave themselves the right to comment her looks? Don’t know what really happened, but suddenly good girl Hermiona is grown up and everybody wants to see her naked. Can she handle all the pressure, or will she go wilder?

3. Scarlett Johansson

There is noting not to love about Scarlett. She is just wonderful and perfect in many ways. She reminds me of Marlyn Monroe, but we hope she will play it more carefully than the Hollywood sweetheart did. As far of her acting, well she is good, because you know that Woody Alan would never take someone who doesn’t know how to act. It all started with her nudity session photos, and most of her fans (and those who are not) could just say Thank you!

4.Rihanna

When Rihanna came to US from Barbados, she seemed like a cute pop singer. But her third album Good Girl Gone Bad said it all. Now, she talks about loving S&M, poses nude and gets super sexy during her live performance. About the S&M we already know since she had some problems with her boyfriend Chris Brown who has been beating her. Most of her fans were shocked to hear after all what happened that she is back together with him. So Rihanna, you don’t need to tell us that you are into S&M, we figured it up, already!

5. Britney Spears

Virgin like Britney gone wild when she hit the woman-hood and she showed us she is Not That Innocent. We all know about her girl-on-girl action with Madonna, than her Vegas wedding and not to mention her alleged drug abuse and a mental brake down. Did she bit more than she could chew? Britney you should keep it real, after all you are not Frank Sinatra, only he could do something like that.

6. Elizabeth Berkley

This was really shocking. Elizabeth playing in Showgirls? This trash movie is a career killer, but somehow this girl managed to get other movie parts and act, fully dressed to our surprise. Most of the movie she is very poorly dressed or better to say it undressed. Her screen debut was a role in the TV movie Frog (1987) (TV). She then got work as an extra in some TV series: “TV 101” (1988), “Day by Day” (1988), etc. In the summer of 1989, she was in L.A. and auditioned for a role on “Saved by the Bell” (1989). She got the role and became a TV star. After 4 seasons, she left the show to try to break into cinema. [Read More on IMDB]

7. Hilary Duff

Hilary Duff started as an innocent teen star in Disney’s hit show Lizzie McGuire, but flirted with naughtiness in her role in War, Inc. when she played a temptress who seduced John Cusack by putting a scorpion down her pants! Then she made headlines when photos of her proposal hit the web that suggested Hilary was thanking her husband-to-be with some oral loving.

8. Miley Cyrus

Oh, my God, was there anyone who didn’t like Miley? She was the idol of preteen girls across America when she was repping the blonde wig for Hannah Montana, but as she approached adulthood and she started to break out of her good girl role. Between leaked scandalous cell phone pics, older boyfriends, lap-dances, almost nude magazine covers, skanky outfits, and a bong???, Miley made her point that she ‘could not be tamed.’

9. Vanessa Hudgens

Vanessa started as a new face, teenager on Disney’s High School Musical, but quickly changed her clean image when naked photos she was sexting to then-boyfriend Zac Efron leaked on the Internet.

10. Cameron Diaz

Girl next door. Everyone loves her, she is something like a female dude, or something like that. Most of her acting career is about playing good girl roles. Suddenly we see her in Bad Teacher and Cameron is pretty wild and a gold digger? This is something new.

28 Cheaters Among Celebrities We Didn’t Expect

stela — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 12:44:21 +0000

Celebrities are just humans, and they tend to make mistakes as we all do. The only difference is that their mistakes will be published and it can influence their career.

Top 10 Educated Celebrities

stela — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 14:09:21 +0000

When we see those people achieving so much in their professions as actors or singers it makes you think of it, like they never did anything else in their lives. But as it turns out, there are some of them who were good students, too. How did they managed to do all of this, to make a career and to study? It is great to see that you don’t have to be a dropout to do something in your life. If there is will, there is a way. Way to go celebrities! This is the list of top 10 educated celebrities.

1. Meryl Streep

acting career at Vassar college where she earned a B.A. in Drama. Later on, she attended Yale School of Drama where she received a Master of Fine Arts. While at Yale, the star participated in several on-stage productions. With all those Oscars you would think she has time for nothing, but this is one hell of a lady. She can do everything. So much energy and such a talent.

2. Conan O’Brien

Before starting his career, this guy was studding at Harvard and graduated magna cum laude in 1985, with a degree in American history.

3. Brooke Bruke

This girl had so much success on E! Entertainment Television. This would not be surprise to you if you knew that she studied broadcast journalism at UCLA.

4. Ivanka Trump

She may be known for her husbands wealth and her supermodel career, but there are not lot of people who know that she graduated summa cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania with a B.S. in Economics.

5.James Franco

Even though he left UCLA early after his first attempt, he returned at 28 and earned an English degree in just two years. In 2008 he began four separate graduate programs: NYU for film-making, Columbia for fiction writing, Brooklyn College, also for fiction writing, and Warren Wilson College for poetry. Last fall he entered Yale as a doctoral candidate in the English program. Way to go James! I have always liked this actor, since Freaks And Geeks TV Show. Not only he has the looks, but a brain, too.

6. Mira Sorvino

We all know her as a great actress, but also she is a smart one too. She graduated magna cum laude in East Asia Studies from Harvard University.

7. Hugh Grant

This English gentleman, is a true one. Not only he is a great in film making, but he has a degree as well. Grant earned a scholarship to New College, a part of England’s Oxford University. He graduated with honors with a degree in English literature.

8. Dolph Lundgren

You all know this guy, but did you know that he studied Chemical Engineering at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. He later received an academic scholorship to study chemistry in both the University of Washington, and Clemson University. After graduating at the top of his class with a Masters in Chemistry, Lundgren made his way to the United States to Study at MIT on a Fullbright scholarship. When you look at the movies he is in, you would never guess all of this.

9. Natalie Portman

This Oscar winning actress graduated from Harvard with a B.A. in psychology and took graduate courses at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. She is fluent in French, Hebrew and Japanese.

10. Anne Hathaway

Hathaway attended Vassar College in Poughkeepsie as an English major with a minor in Women Studies.

Most of them are amazing, and it really surprised me to see that they had time to do something with how much they were working on their careers. Maybe this will be a push up for those who are thinking to be like their favorite celebrity, and decide that they don’t need school. Celebrities didn’t became what they are (talking here about true values, not Snookie and Kardashians) without brains. You decide what kind of celebrity you would like to be. The one with looks or the one with looks and brains, and of course degree.
