The rumors have finally been confirmed: actress Megan Fox is the star of the upcoming Emporio Armani Underwear and Armani Jeans campaigns.

Rumors began swirling that Fox would replace current spokesmodel Victoria Beckham in the Emporio Armani campaign after the 23-year-old actress made a surprise appearance at the Giorgio Armani Privé show in July. Fox, the star of the “Transformers” franchise, is considered to be the Hollywood sex symbol and a favorite cover girl of men’s magazines in both the U.S. and Europe.

According to WWD, Fox was shot by famed duo Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott this past weekend. The new Armani images featuring Fox will start running worldwide in January. None of the images have leaked as of yet, but we can expect to see them in print ads and billboards in the near future.

Expect teenaged boys to start buying copies of Vogue for those ads…

Defying all odds, Mischa Barton who has been released from psychiatric ward has been hard at work on the set of her new show, The Beautiful Life, despite her breakdown just weeks ago.

The 23-year-old actress was spotted on location at New York City Hall today, looking healthy and vibrant in a fabulous metallic Versace Spring 2009 minidress and a pair of studded, buckled boots.

Hopefully the work will keep Mischa focused on her career and her health. It definitely doesn’t help that her supposed “friends” have been claiming to outlets who will listen that the actress is “on the verge of another breakdown.”

Meanwhile, family friend Eric Ziegenbein told Heat Magazine that the actress was already back to her partying ways.

The reality star known for her deep brunette locks went blonde over the weekend and showed off lighter locks as she walked the red carpet at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards held at Gibson Amphitheatre on August 9, 2009 in Universal City, California.

Last week, Allure magazine introduced a new word into the lexicon: the break-over. Apparently this term describes the new look a woman sports shortly after a breakup. Perhaps it was Kim Kardashian’s recent breakup with NFL star Reggie Bush that inspired her to dye her hair a soft, slightly-brassy blonde. Kim, who wore a blonde wig for a recent photoshoot, took to her blog to write about the new do:

“This time it’s for real, guys! I went blonde!!! I had been considering it ever since I wore that blonde wig, and I just decided to go for it!! What do you think? I am really loving it! My hairstylist Clyde Haygood orchestrated the whole thing and Rebecca from Goodform salon dyed it!”

No one has perfected better the sultry brunette image than Kim, obviously she still looks gorgeous, but if you think about it she completely looses her personality with the new hair color. She will eventually return to her roots..

Megan Fox is pulling out all her sexiest looks for the Transformers 2 promotional tour. She attended the Berlin premiere in a sexy red Roberto Cavalli dress that plunged to there, was slit up to here, and featured an ample showing of waist, too.

Back in February, Transformers star Megan Fox broke off her engagement to longtime boyfriend Brian Austin Green, much to the delight of fans everywhere. Their joy, however, was short-lived, as it seemed that Fox and Green couldn’t really quit each other.When asked about her love life at a Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen press conference in Berlin, she said, “I’m currently what you would call single, I guess.”

She joked that she’d like to move on to a Korean pop star, saying, “There is this Korean Justin Timberlake named Rain and I’m really on his situation now. I’m trying to fix this up. I’m working hard.”

David Beckham showed his prowess on the football field at Wembley on Wednesday, June 10, 2009. But today it was his pant prowess that was being scrutinized! David Beckham fans took over one of Britain’s busiest streets as the footballer unveiled the latest image for his Armani underwear campaign of himself wearing only underpants.

The event marked the launch of Emporio Armani’s new underwear campaign, which stars the footballer and a poster in which he is pictured clutching a rope as he models the snug-fitting pants was unveiled outside Selfridges in London’s Oxford Street. In his campest photoshoot yet, the 34-year-old LA Galaxy and Milan star poses stripped to black pants, with a rope coiled around his waist. His hair is slicked down and side-parted.

Beckham, more fully dressed in a navy single-breasted Armani suit and accompanied by presenter Gaby Logan, seemed bemused by the attention and screams from fans and from hundreds of onlookers as the poster was revealed at the store. The crowd, many of whom had been there since 9am, jostled for space on the pavement, already crowded because of the tube strike. As the first billboard of Beckham to appear in London was unveiled, the crowd cheered and wolf-whistled their approval. One girl was sick with excitement over the barricade. His wife, Victoria Beckham, was inside the store, in personal shopping.

Beckham, was asked if he enjoyed the experience and said he did not mind the photos being taken, but added: “When they’re unveiled it’s a little embarrassing.” He said he did not go on special diets for the pictures to be taken but “obviously I work out before these shoots”. Beckham added: “I’m very proud to be here today.”

Giorgio Armani said, “David has a great sense of style and is an inspiring role model – this is what makes him the perfect partner for Emporio Armani underwear. I am very excited that David Beckham’s new campaign image was unveiled exclusively in his home country and where better than at such an iconic retail destination as Selfridges.”

The image was shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott renowned fashion photographers who are also responsible for the images of Victoria Beckham for Armani.

The company has seen a 150% rise in the sale of their pants – as seen on Beckham – since the three-year deal, rumoured to be worth £10m launched in 2007.

Ugly Betty star Vanessa Williams has just released a new album, The Real Thing, which must be why the singer seems committed to keeping it real in promotional interviews. When asked by Essence about her beauty and skincare regimen, Williams was strikingly honest; “Twice a year I receive BOTOX injections from a doctor whom I trust very much. I also have some favorite beauty products that I use on a daily basis – Perfekt’s Skin perfection Gel and Mila Moursi’s moisturizing oil.”

But Williams has been candid about her love of Botox before. She once said, “I did after I turned 40. But I told the doctor, ‘My face has got to move. I am not looking for perfection, I am looking for refreshment.’”

Plenty of other celebrities have been open about their use of Botox, including Jenny McCarthy, Jennie Garth, Linda Evangelista, David Hasselhoff, Janice Dickinson, and Lori Laughlin.

Fergie shines while she promotes her new album with the Black Eyed Peas, making an appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. Fergie and crew arrived semi-casual for the event, although their threads definitely attracted stares all on their own! Fergie changed into uber-glam for the main event, donning a green, sparkly Emilio Pucci dress for her time on camera. The dress featured panel cut-outs to show off Fergie’s insanely fit body. Fergie wore the revealing dress with a great pair of strappy metallic sandals.

Rihanna has been everywhere since her red carpet return! On Thursday, May 7, 2009, the singer attended DKMS’ 3rd Annual Star-Studded Gala which took place at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York City wearing head to toe Louis Vuitton. Nearly everything about this look, from the poofy-sleeved metallic top to the lace-up boots, is completely fashion-forward. From the way she’s been dressing, it’s as if she is been saving up an arsenal of hardcore fashion for her return to the spotlight.

Rapper Lil’ Kim and her partner Derek Hough may have been the top scorers on Monday night’s Dancing with the Stars — earning two 10s with their fiery jive set to Elvis Presley’s “Jailhouse Rock” — but their onstage success was nearly upstaged by a potential wardrobe malfunction! Host Tom Bergeron provided cover while the rapper adjusted as she and Hough approached the judges table.

Lil’ Kim told KABC-TV after the show: “I don’t know why this happens a lot of the time, but … the girls were tryin’ to come out.”

The nearly X-rated moment was edited out by the time the show was rebroadcast on the West Coast, but it didn’t seem to bother the judges: Lil’ Kim and Hough posted a night’s best 28 out of a possible 30 for their spirited dance.

Rihanna's music notes tattoos

Tattooing has developed into a modern art form. People all over the world recognize its craze among the youth across the countries. The young people are in tremendous hurry to visit the tattoo artists and get their favorite designed tattooed on their bodies.

The tattoos give the youth a definite “cool” look! All parts of the body can be the targets for tattoos. However, the extent of pain depends on the part of body. Some like the arms, back, lower back are favored areas. One need not be too surprised to find a lady proudly displaying a virgin tattoo on the ankle of her long sleek leg. It surely gives a unique look to her and the ankle tattoos thus are the talk of the town.

But a large number of people do not know the exact options of ankle tattooing. They fail to understand the extent to which the tattoo can be made on an ankle. When they are made on the upper part of the ankle, the ankle tattoos are less painful. But if you have it done right on the bony part of the ankle, be prepared for more pain. Hence it is advisable to go in for the smaller tattoos that avoid the bony part. On the upper part of the ankle because of more fleshy structure, you can have bigger tattoos. So the common mistake made by people is selecting the wrong size for of tattoo design for the ankle region. Do remember that it will be more painful if the tattooing is attempted directly on the bony surface.

Also remember that ankle tattoos remain for life. If they are made too low on the ankle, the wrinkles that appear over the years can make the tattoo go out of shape. Therefore, the calf region is best suited to have bigger tattoos for longer time since this region does not get wrinkles as fast. Consequently, the ankle tattoos also last longer.

People sometimes think that ankle tattoos bleed less. They are wrong. Bleeding here is more because they are at the end of the body circulatory system. It pays to be extra careful while getting your ankle tattooed. You must use a properly reclined chair so that the tattoo artist can get a good view of your ankle. You must also avoid walking long distances immediately after getting tattooed, to minimize bleeding.

Post tattooing care. It is vital to protect your ankle tattoos till they heal thoroughly. Along with the pain, there is also a possibility of ink running if rough, hard clothing rubs against the tattooed surface.

Boots are out for the first few days. In addition, avoid direct sunlight on the ankle tattoo as the sunlight can fade the tattoo. Sunscreen with SPF 15 can help in reducing the effect of the sun rays.

Many stylish fashion accessories are suitable for intimate encounters but can be easily transported from the bedroom to the clothes closet to create fashion accents for casual occasions as well. When silky intimate apparel is used for casual wear, it has the ability to attract the attention of every man that is present. Men find these to be a very seductive choice for everyday wear.

The opposite sex loves these intimate apparel selections because they offer a brief covering over the arms and bring out the sexiness of the shoulder blades. Women love to wear them for everyday wear because it is a cost effective way of controlling clothing expenses because intimate apparel is usually sold in sets. A woman can create a very seductive look that is perfect for dates or nights out on the town with other friends.

Men love intimate apparel that exposes the navel and these friendly and provocative fashion accessories can truly make a man pay attention when the exposed areas of the body are pointed toward their location. A woman can wear them with jeans and convey more to a man in an instant than she ever could if she wore another top and engaged in conversation at a bar for many hours. Intimate apparel can make romance happen very quickly and that romance does not have to occur at home.

The material of some intimate apparel can have a dramatic effect on the way a man treats a woman. If the material is soft and pliable, then a man will be tempted to nuzzle and finger the material for a very long time. This type of attention is welcomed by women all over the world because it brings a man within earshot and he has no other choice but to listen to small words of love that are whispered in his ear.

The intimate apparel used as casual wear can be made of flimsy material that requires a rigid layer to keep nipples from being exposed. Women love layering their bodies in several types that were designed for just this purpose. Layering intimate apparel will have a dramatic effect on men. They will develop a compulsive urge to remove each piece one at a time to discover the beauty of the body underneath the layers. This type of scavenger hunt can prove to be a lot of fun for people who choose to wear intimate apparel for casual wear.

Take a look at this super hot sneak peak at Kim Kardashian’s upcoming 2010 Calendar photo shoot. Kim Kardashian is already doing her 2010 calendar although 2009 has just started! Kim went all the way to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico where she teamed up with Troy Jensen and Monica Rose for her uber sexy 2010 calendar. “I’m so excited about it,” the 28 years old reality star said on her blog. “Look at that bronzer in some of the shots!” she wrote. “I look so tan! I love that sun-kissed glow.” Judging from these behind the scenes footage, it’s gonna be one hell of a calendar!

Oops, she did it again… Britney Spears is back.

After a five year absence on the touring circuit, Spears returned to the stage in New Orleans, not far from her hometown of Kentwood, and she’s brought the circus with her. Spears tapped Dsquared2 designers, twins Dean and Dan Caten, to design costumes that span the range of circus performers, from trapeze artists to clowns with Spears as the sexy, over-the-top ringmaster, of course.

The show,  was a full-blown, full-out Britney Spears show.. A pop extravaganza! The show also featured aerialists, martial arts and Spears’ signature slew of backup dancers.

As the attempted rehabilitation of Britney Spears’ reputation goes on, the singer-tabloid star has just signed her first apparel endorsement — with Candie’s, which is sold exclusively at Kohl’s. Kohl’s announced the Spears will be the new spokesperson for their Candie’s Only at Kohl’s line and will appear in television, in-store and online marketing and advertising campaigns. Candie’s and Kohl’s are both sponsors of Spears’ Circus tour.

“Britney is authentic and relevant, personifying the Candie’s brand,” said Julie Gardner, executive vice president and chief marketing officer for Kohl’s Department Stores in a statement. And in a true multimedia cross-platforming, the pop star will wear Candie’s apparel, footwear and accessories in a music video off her current album, “Circus.”

When one things of living fashion icons, certain people come to mind: Madonna, for one; Gwen Stefani; maybe even Michael Jackson. But one Hollywood star cat had more catwalk appearances this season than all of them combined: Pamela Anderson! Pamela has actually been getting most of her exposure these days from making appearances at fashion shows internationally, both in the front row and on the runway.

She showed up at last year’s Spring/Summer Vivienne Westwood presentation with a strange masked man on her arm. She danced around in a sparkly gold thong bathing suit for Richie Rich. And this week, Pammy worked the catwalk in several different looks for Dame Westwood herself, even closing the show, proving you’re never too old for fashion.

But some folks aren’t happy about Vivienne’s choice of models. Westwood is an eccentric, as is Richie Rich, and neither have been known to turn down a celebrity model, so don’t expect this to become a common thing. Anderson is probably not welcome on the catwalks of other deigners!
