Heidi Klum Could Not Resist the Catwalk
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Models, News, Rumors
Despite having given birth to her fourth child last month and claiming she was merely going to host the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, Heidi Klum could not resist the allure of the catwalk.
While she swapped the usual, revealing lingerie for a full bodice, it’s clear that whatever training or dieting the supermodel did worked wonders in returning her to the runway!
Can you even spot the supposed “extra” twenty pounds she claims to still have?

Mariah Carey Cannot Maintain Diet Regimen
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News
Celebrities really are like normal people—take Mariah Carey, for instance, who can’t bring herself to maintain a diet.
The “Hero” singer, whose weight has fluctuated in the past, admits that she is prone to piling on the pounds but says she could never deny herself her favorite foods.
“I’m very muscular. So I mustn’t lift weights. I should rather go swimming or do pilates. And of course I should stick to a diet. But I don’t want to do that. I’m always on the go. What could I eat and how would I be able to follow a diet?”
Mariah, 40, also says she would never want to be a size zero and thinks there is too much pressure placed on young girls to be unhealthily skinny: “It’s society’s fault. We grow up with these magazines which are full of size zero models. But people are just people. It’s about personal qualities. I don’t want to be a size zero. And also, I couldn’t be one. My bones would look very ugly. I am the happiest when my curvy parts fit into a US size six.”

Adriana Lima has given birth to a daughter.
The Victoria’s Secret model and basketball star Marko Jaric became parents for the first time on Sunday to baby Valentina, who was born in a New York hospital.
A spokesperson for the Brazilian beauty said:, “Adriana and Marko are thrilled to announce they had a baby girl, Valentina Lima Jaric. Mother, father and baby are all doing well.”
The couple have been flooded with messages of congratulations - and even offers for Adriana to return to work. Victoria’s Secret Chief Marketing Officer Ed Razek said: “All of us at Victoria’s Secret are thrilled to welcome Adriana’s own little angel. I jokingly asked her if she wanted to walk the runway in our annual fashion show this Thursday night and, for a minute, I thought she was going to take me up on it! We congratulate her, and wish them all health and well being.”
Adriana, 28, and Marko, 31 married on Valentine’s day this year after dating for three years.
Heidi Klum Moves in Trainer to Shed Baby Weight
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors
Supermodel Heidi Klum‘s personal trainer has moved in with her to help get her into shape.
The German supermodel is desperate to shed the weight she gained while pregnant with daughter Lou - her fourth child who was born last month - before a Victoria’s Secret catwalk show next week and has embarked on a grueling diet and exercise regime under the guidance of expert David Kirsch.
A source said, “Heidi’s swapped processed carbs, sugar, dairy and fruit for egg-white omelettes, spinach salads and grilled tuna with quinoa. She’s determined to wow everyone when she walks. She’s pushing herself through gruelling twice-daily workouts.”
Heidi has previously admitted she is struggling to lose her baby weight and finds it much tougher than she did after having her other children, Leni, five, Henri, four, and Johan, three: “I wouldn’t say I’m back in shape yet. Everything changes when you get older. It was different when I was 31 with the first one and now being 36 with the fourth one.”
She is now hitting the treadmill and eating sensibly in a bid to get back in shape as she fears she will remain bigger forever if she doesn’t act now: “I think that if you wait too long and it sticks there it stays that way forever. I have to be motivated.”
Miranda Kerr Works Intensely
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Health & Beauty, Models, News, Rumors
As if we didn’t know that models have quite the workload, Miranda Kerr wants to proclaim that no one else could handle her “intense” schedule.
The Australian supermodel, who is dating actor Orlando Bloom, has revealed her grueling workload can takes its toll on her health and private life.
“I work six days a week, 15 hours a day—and that’s not a joke. I’m generally in two different countries a week. And anyone else who had my schedule would probably fall apart. To be honest with you, it’s really intense. People don’t realize the extent of how hard I work, because they see it as just glitz and glamour. At the same time I am so grateful for it all, but it doesn’t give me a lot of downtime.”
Miranda sparked health concerns after being pictured looking shockingly frail at a swimwear shoot in Sydney last week. The 26-year-old star, who is planning to release a book on nutrition this year, says she stays in shape by following a diet based on her blood type.

Victoria Beckham Talks Eating Disorder Rumors
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, News, Rumors
Usually one to keep her cool and ignore the petulant rumors regarding her weight, Victoria Beckham is finally speaking out after a whirlwind of photographs of her at London Fashion Week surfaced, fueling the topic yet again.
“I am fine—happy and healthy. It’s irresponsible when people obsess about my shape and size. I appreciate there are young girls and women who look at me as a role model and it is untrue to say I do not eat and I am unhealthy.”
Still not convinced? The well-received fashion designer points out several things in her life that she wouldn’t have the ability to pursue had she truly not been in good health: “I have a healthy diet, a healthy lifestyle and plenty of energy to run after my three energetic boys and travel the world managing my fashion business.”
Girl power!

Stylist Quits Over Curvy Models
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Fashion Shows, Health & Beauty, Models, News, Women
The resistance against curvy women in fashion is still formidable. Designer Mark Fast experienced this first-hand, as his stylist quit three days before their London Fashion Week show when the designer revealed that he wanted to use larger models.
Freelancers Daniela Agnelli and Natalie Hubbarb were there, thankfully, to save the day and got everything in place for their Saturday show at the University of Westminster.
While not all of the models that walked his runway were plus-size, he did use three models from the agency 12+ UK—it’s definitely a start.
To think that the size of three models upset someone on his team so much to drive her to quit is beyond me.
Creative director Amanda May was thrilled with the challenge: “The decision to use fuller girls is something we have been talking about. There’s an idea that only thin and slender women are able to wear Mark’s dresses and he wanted to combat that. We wanted women to know they didn’t have to be a size zero to wear a Mark Fast dress—curvier women can look even better in them.”
Hopefully this marks a more lasting effect on the use of models over a size 8.

Cure to Muffin Top in the Works
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Health & Beauty, News, Women
There is hope for us all! Cosmetic surgeon expert Patrick Mallucci claims that there is a non-invasive treatment to cure muffin top—the extra rolls of fat that poke out over women’s jeans and skirts.
While most surgeons have cut small incisions for liposuction in the area, Mallucci has developed “superficial” liposuction to remove the stubborn fat. The procedure is only done on the superficial layer of fat (where all the fat is stored in the higher areas of skin), so as to reduce trauma and bruising.

Madonna’s Exercise Regime Revealed
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News, Rumors
Madonna trains for two hours a day, six days a week.
The “Material Girl” singer, famed for her sculptured body, works hard with personal trainer Tracy Anderson to maintain her physique but is careful she doesn’t look too muscular.
“We train for two hours six days a week. We do 45 minutes of dance aerobics, followed by work on muscle tone, flexibility and definition. There’s no running and no weights bigger than three pounds, because Madonna doesn’t want to bulk up.”
Although Madonna has drawn criticism for her toned arms in recent months, Tracy insists she has a “perfect” figure and looks better than American First Lady Michelle Obama.
“Madonna’s body is perfect. She has no fat, no cellulite, she is so toned, and her arms are amazing. Michelle Obama’s arms look beautiful, but I think I could get her into even better shape.”
Tracy also trains Madonna’s friend Gwyneth Paltrow and recently praised the actress’ dedication to her exercise regime: “In the past, she’d had times when she was very, very thin, but never this toned. Her definition is unreal.”
Relaxed Red Carpet Star Evangeline Lilly

In addition to embracing her age, Evangeline Lilly eats “whatever the hell” she wants 24 hours before a big event. We ought to all follow this lady’s advice!
The Lost actress restricts her diet for a week running up to a red carpet appearance, but doesn’t see the point in panicking in the last few hours hours.
“I cut sugar and alcohol a week before an event. That trims the excess three to five pounds I like to carry to be healthy. The day before, I eat whatever the hell I want. I’m not going to put on weight in 24 hours.”
Evangeline, 30, admits that she isn’t a fan of the figure-hugging costumes she has to wear on the show, but her concerns are not listened to by the costume department.
“I hate the tight tops I wear on Lost. I’ve had little victories from time to time, when my character Kate has been allowed to wear something baggier. I’d say I’ve had a 10 to 15 per cent success rate. My new acid-wash jeans did not impress the Lost cast. Everyone was like, ‘You’re wearing acid wash?’ I tried to explain they’re in fashion, but they just didn’t get it.”
