Britney Spears New Album 2011

Who’s sick of the rumours about Britney’s new material? Ooo, ooo, me, me! Well you’ll be pleased to know we finally we have some solid details of her new album. And I emphasise the word SOME!
So let’s start with the bad news – There’s no two ways about it, you are going to have to wait a while to hear anything, as the tracks won’t be hitting the shelves until mid 2011.

Now… the good news… You know Max Martin? He’s the executive producer from Britney’s old-school chart hit days, the brains behind tracks including Hit Me Baby One More Time, Oops… I Did It Again and Lucky. Well… lucky for our Britters, Mr Martin has been drafted in once again to work on her upcoming album. Sounds good so far…

And, while we’re on the subject of contributors, Dr Luke, who co-produced Circus and Shattered Glass is also a big influence on her new material.

I have to tell you – Rich and I went to see Britney’s Circus tour, and aside from it sounding like she’d switched on her CD for the duration of the show, we weren’t too impressed. I think I’m prepared to give her one more chance. Is the old Britney in there somewhere? Let’s hope it’s worth the wait.

Angelina Jolie Prohibited Filming in Bosnia

 Bosnian Government finally cancel permission for Angelina Jolie who will do the shooting scenes for his latest film in the Balkan country. The plan, making the scene will be carried out in November. Jolie’s acting as a producer and director had previously been taking pictures in Budapest, Hungary.

Bosnian Government has received input from women activists about the scenario film is set during the Bosnian war in Bosnia and Serbia in 1992 to 1995.

As is known, the film tells about the love story between Bosnian women and Serbian men. An irony in which both countries are engaged in war. Approximately 100,000 residents were massacred in the Bosnian war.

Jolie says his film will not be grazed on political issues, but only highlight the human side. Jolie also argue Bosnian women highlighted in the film more as victims of war.

The reason it is precisely criticized by Bosnia women’s activist, Bakira Hasecic in Bosnia Oslobodjenje daily.

“In this film, a victim would fall in love with a man who actually tortured her,” Bakira said who is also President of the Association of Women Victims of War, quoted by Reuters on Friday (15/10/2010).

Bakira also argues, based on the contents of the scenario that she may know, the film can obscure the fact that actually happened in the Bosnian female camps of the war prisoners.

Minister of Culture and Sport of Bosnia-Croatia Gavrilo Grahovac has issued a cancellation of the permit.

“Demand for filming permit is not accompanied byt scenario tex is not in accordance with the law. Gavrilo Grahovac decided to cancel the permit,” the ministry statement.

Kim Kardashian has not invited her ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush to her 30th birthday party.

She has reportedly decided not to invited Reggie 'because she doesn't want the attention it would bring,' according to RadarOnline.com.

A pal added: 'Reggie is 100 percent not invited to the party. As much as she would want Reggie to share in her birthday celebration, it would become a talking point, plus he is injured, so it was decided they would mark the occasion at another time.'

An Emotional Affair: Is It Really Cheating?

News of the recent split between David Arquette and Courteney Cox shocked fans who assumed that their 11-year marriage was solid. What could have happened to break up a couple who talked openly about couples therapy and working hard at keeping their marriage successful? During a recent phone call to the Howard Stern radio show, Arquette says Cox was having an “emotional affair” with Cougar Town co-star Brian Van Holt.

Emotional affairs are on the rise because the ability to connect with more people outside of a marriage has increased. For example, there are more women in the workplace and, of course, the Internet has opened up new opportunities. Plus, it is also on the rise because many people convince themselves that as long as there is no sex, it's not an affair... but it is.

An affair really has to do with secrecy, deception of the partner and therefore betrayal. It also has to do with the amount of emotional energy you put into the new person that you therefore are not giving to your partner. Actually, most people are more disturbed by the breaking of trust than by sex in an affair.  That betrayal of trust is the most difficult thing to recover from.

Many people have an emotional affair, yet due to their own denial don’t believe they are cheating. The denial keeps them guilt-free and they don’t have to give it up.

So how do you know if you are having emotional affair?
1. You keep meetings and conversations secret from your partner.
2. You say and do things with another person you never would in front of your spouse.
3. You make a point to arrange talk time with someone other than your partner.
4. You share things with another person that you don’t with your partner.


Most people were actually not looking for an affair. They find themselves interested in a new person and it becomes a slippery slope.  At some point, if the relationship continues it often does lead to sex. The person may start to depend on them for the emotional highs and good feelings they give throughout during the day.

So often we don’t appreciate our relationship until we are about to lose it. If you have had an affair, you need to own up and take responsibility

Here's my advice if you think you're having an emotional affair:


    * End it! No halfway, no "kind of", no being friends…It has to end or you will still be in it and cannot build back your partner's trust.
    * Take responsibility. No one else did it but you.  You need to own it to get past it.
    * Figure out why you did it. Was your marriage failing? Were you looking for self-esteem? Repeating the pattern of a parent who cheated?
    * Be trustworthy. The biggest obstacle to your relationship's survival is the betrayal, so you must be thoroughly open and trustworthy to build trust back. This means doing what your partner needs you to do (like coming home right after work, breaking off all contact with the other person).
    * It takes time. Rebuilding trust after betrayal takes time.  You have to be patient and can’t expect your partner to just bounce back.
So, what do you think? Does an emotional affair count as cheating?

Should the Turban Trend Be Kept Under Wraps?

Salma Hayek created some buzz last week when she attended Stella McCartney's runway show  in Paris wearing a gray printed turban. It seemed like an odd choice, given her curves-conscious belted ensemble. But the hot momma wasn't the only one to wrap it up recently.

At Giorgio Armani show's in Milan, hairstylist Oribe created a sleek twisted bun to complement the Tuareg-style headwear worn by the models. And let's not forgot (or maybe you're hoping you could forgot) Carrie Bradshaw's desert chic look in Sex and the City 2.

Tempted to try out this Sahara style? Slip on Jennifer Ouellette's Turban Knot Headband. The wide leather band, complete with knot detail, is a classic accessory that anyone can wear (top, $60 at Barneys). Or sub your traditional winter wool cap for the Knit Turban Beanie from A.OK by OAK (left, $38 at Refinery 29). For the more daring, scoop up Norma Kamali's version, which comes in an array of hues, including pink! (right, $75 at Norma Kamali)

Hmm, could this be the answer to my bad hair days?

Would you test out the turban trend? Chime in now!

Flattering Hair Cuts for Every Face Shape

No matter your face shape, there will be cuts that look best on you. (Except for this  style which looks great on almost everyone.) Here's a quick guide of what to look for and what to avoid for 5 different face shapes:

    * Round faces
    * Square faces
    * Oval faces
    * Long faces
    * Heart-shaped faces

Round Face Shapes
Typically, if you have a round face, you want to make your face appear longer and leaner and less round. To do this, create less volume around the face.

Styles that are flattering and stylish: Try cuts that fall just below the chin. Soft, graduated layers are a great bet because they make your face appear slimmer and tend to remove bulk and weight from the sides. Consider wispy and tapered ends. These de-emphasize the roundness of your face. Bangs are flattering, but keep them long or side-swept.

Avoid: One-length, blunt cuts if you have short hair. Curly, short hair is also a no-no. These only emphasize your roundness.

Celebs who share your face shape: Fergie, Kate Bosworth, Oprah Winfrey, Cameron Diaz, Kirsten Dunst, Michelle Williams, Catherine Zeta-Jones

Tools you need: A great boar's hair brush to keep hair tame.
Square Face Shapes
If you have a square face, you'll want to play down your strong, angular jaw. Texture, in the form of curls or choppy ends, does this brilliantly. You can also get away with short, spiky cuts and long, sleek styles with layers that start at the jawline and continue downward.

Avoid: One-length bobs (especially chin-length) and blunt-cut bangs. These will make your face look even more square. Photo gallery of square face shapes

Celebs who share your face shape: Gwyneth Paltrow, Demi Moore, Angelina Jolie, Isabella Rosellini and Rosario Dawson
Oval Face Shapes
The oval face is the most versatile shape. You can pull off almost any look: short or long, straight or wavy. For your own most flattering look, consider your best feature and highlight it with your hair cut.

If you have gorgeous bone structure, consider an angular bob that shows off your chin. Great eyes? Blunt or side-swept bangs are a great bet.

Styles that are flattering and stylish: sophisticated bobs, bangs, long, beachy waves (think California surfer girl).

Avoid: Short layers that add height on top of your head. Aside from being dated, short layers can make your face appear long. If your hair is thick or curly, avoid a blunt cut. You'll look like a pyramid. If you have curly hair, short hair is generally a no-no (see "10 Secrets to Styling Curly Hair"). Try shoulder-length or longer to weigh down curls.

Celebs who share your face shape: Kate Hudson, Jessica Alba, Jada Pinkett Smith

Tools you can't live without: A great curling iron and flat iron to create waves and straighten your sleek locks.
Long or "Oblong" Face Shapes
Ahhh, the long face shape. The perfect haircut for us is one that doesn't drag down the face, yet adds width.

Styles that are flattering: Brow-skimming bangs (I plan to never go without them again). Chin-length bobs are also ideal for us because they create the illusion of width. Gwyneth Paltrow's shoulder-length bob is very flattering on a long face. Just make sure your stylist cuts the hair a bit shorter in the back so it doesn't look boring. Curls and waves work well because they add width to the face.

Be careful with long hair: Hair that is too long like Demi Moore's can drag down the face. Long layers work best with pieces hitting at the nose, the chin and the collarbone. Consider a v-shaped style where the length is mainly in the back, while the sides and front of your hair appear shorter. Also consider adding wave or curls to the hair (find out how, here).

Avoid: Stay away from the extremes. Don't go longer than the collarbone and avoid a skull-capping super short cut, like this one.

Celebs who share your face shape: Sarah Jessica Parker, Ashlee Simpson, Liv Tyler, Giselle Bundchen

Styling tools you can't live without: A great volumizer. My favorite is Bumble and Bumble Holding Spray, I also love the hairspray Big Sexy Hair Flip it Over Full and Wild.
Heart Face Shapes
Your pointy chin tends to be the focal point of your face. Draw attention to your eyes and cheekbones instead with side-swept bangs (like Paris Hilton pictured here), brow-grazing fringe, a strong part and hair that falls at or below your jawline. Have short hair? Keep top layers soft and long. Long hair? Go for long layers that graze your cheek bones.

Avoid: Short, blunt-cut bangs and harsh, choppy layers.

Here are some tips how to curl your hair,so enjoy!

Yet Another Reason to Wear Red Lipstick

Most people look good in the right red lipstick (the exception might be Cameron Diaz, who always looks like a clown when she wears red lipstick IMHO). January Jones on Mad Men looks incredible in red lips -- she really does resemble Grace Kelly -- yet when she wears nude lips on the red carpet she looks rather plain. Sienna Miller looks AMAZING in red lips. There's something about red lips and blonde hair that's just an incredible color combination.

Play up the eyes or the mouth, never both. Here's why.
The rules to wearing red lipstick.
My 16 favorite lipstick tips -- all in one spot :
A beauty tip I've always sworn by is to pick your best feature and play it up. If you are complimented often on your lips, consider yourself lucky; it's time to accentuate them. Here are 16 tips on how to apply lipstick.

    * Don't play up the eyes and the mouth Women who wear heavy eye makeup and dark lipstick can look clownish. If you want to wear red lipstick, keep the rest of your makeup light. If you are playing up the eyes, keep your mouth light with a gloss or light lip color that doesn't stand out.
    * For "plump" lips, apply liner just outside your natural lip line. Dab a bit of gloss in the middle of your bottom lip.
    * How to apply lipstick? I don't believe in rules to applying lipstick. Some women use special lipstick brushes (pictured here). I own one and never, ever use it. Others use their middle finger (I once said this was a beauty faux pas and got reamed by a reader, I have since changed my mind). Most women apply right from the tube. Choose what's right for you, as long as the color gets on the lips, you're good.
    * Use liner on your lips as a base. Lipstick will last longer if you fill in your lips with the liner first. If you're using light lipstick, try a nude liner. Then slick your lipstick on top.

      Lip gloss is infamous for wearing off fast, but if you fill in lips first with the liner, the gloss has something to stick to.
    * You can line before or after you apply lipstick or gloss. Some women prefer to apply liner first, arguing that you won't be able to see the natural line of your lips if you apply lipstick first. But I find lips look more natural when I line lips after I apply lipstick.
    * Never use a dark liner with light lipstick. Defined lips are great, but make sure the liner matches the lipstick or gloss. Dark liner and light lips is tacky.
    * Never use a test lipstick on your lips. It's just plain unhygienic. Instead, test lipstick on your fingertips. It's a closer fit to your lips than the back of your hand.
    * Don't throw out a bad color lipstick. Beauty editors know you can create a great lipcolor by blending lipsticks you don't like. You can also color in lips with a darker liner before applying a lipstick that's too bright.
    * Keep lipstick off glass. Discreetly lick your lips before taking a sip from a glass. It works!
    * Keep lipstick off your teeth with this trick. After applying lipstick, take your index finger and pop it in your mouth, then pull it out. The excess lipstick will come off on your finger rather than your teeth.
    * Lipstick can act as a blush. But never use blush as a lipstick.
    * The older you are, the "creamier" your lips should look. If your lips are thinned out and wrinkled, avoid matte or a gloss and stick with a creamy lipstick.
    * Not all lipstick shades look good on everyone.Your skin color will determine what shades are right on you. You may like a lipstick on your friend, but it may not look good on you. Orange or brown shades, including corals, look good on few people. These shades tend to make teeth appear yellow.
    * Camouflage yellowed teeth. To downplay a yellow cast to teeth, try lipsticks with a bluish undertone. Shades that work include plums, pinks, wines and violets, according to Lazarus, a NYC makeup artist, in the June, 2007, issue of O magazine.
    * Heal -- don't throw out -- a broken lipstick. If your lipstick breaks off, simply take off the broken portion with a tissue, then slowly wave a lit match under the broken piece of lipstick. When it's melted a bit, put it back on the base, swivel it down and put it in the fridge -- uncovered -- for 30 minutes.
    * Lipstick done? You might notice there's still a bit of lipstick down in the tube. Scrape out the last bits with a cotton swap or orange stick and mix it with Vaseline or lip gloss in a lipstick palette. Use a lip brush to apply.

      I  tip shared by reader Patti Campbell. She scoops out the lipstick remnants from the bottoms of her tubes and she puts them in a pill case, "the one with the days of the week individually capped." She then nukes the pill case until the lipstick melts. Campbell uses a lip brush and enjoys seven new lipsticks. I would think this is perfect for the purse.

Acne Cures: Are You
Tired of Looking for
The Acne Cure?
  
When it comes to zits and finding the acne cure it can be quite a difficult task. Everyone claims their product to be the one, but are they? The acne cure is the product that works for you, and what works for you might not work for someone else.
So how do you determine the acne cure that’s right for you? Well, I wish I could tell you it’s very simple: just buy product A or product B. But the truth is you are going to have to experiment and try different products until you find the one that works for you.
I could fill you full of bull and tell you Neutrogena is the one or Proactive is the one. For some that would be true, for others however it would not.
When trying a new product, try to buy the smallest quantity available. Many acne products offer a trial size, which is perfect! If no trial size is available, then you’ll have to buy the next smallest size you can find.
Remember price has no bearing on what works. For some the cheapest acne products do the job; for others it’s the most expensive. Trial and error is the only way you’ll find out.
There are some general things you can do that help almost all sufferers to some degree.
•    Increase the amount of water you drink daily. It should be at least ten 8-ounce glasses. Water helps flush your system and that includes your skin, which then can better move impurities and toxins out of the body.
•    Increase the amount of fresh fruit and vegetables you eat.
•    Exercise. Exercise helps boost the immune system, which can then better fight your acne outbreaks.
•    Take a zinc supplement. Zinc has shown great results for many acne sufferers. If you want more information on zinc visit us at the acne cure center or do a quick search and you’ll find other sites providing valuable information.
•    Reduce stress. Stress can trigger an outbreak, so try to keep your stress under control. I know this can be easier said than done, but there are many relaxation techniques available. Give one a try.
Contrary to the old wives tails floating around, acne is not caused by sugar or greasy foods. Although they don’t directly cause acne, they are overall not healthy for the body and can reduce the body’s ability to build a strong immune system, so you should consume in moderation. But cutting them out of your diet won’t make your acne magically disappear.
Many acne outbreaks are a result of hormonal imbalances. That’s why acne is so prone in teens. There are hormonal treatments available that you can talk to your doctor about.
There are also many other treatments available from your doctor or dermatologist. This is certainly a route worth exploring if you suffer from severe acne.
But for the occasional outbreak you can find the acne cure that works for you over the counter. So why not start now?
