If you’re like me, you have a closet full of discarded Halloween props. Angel wings, a pitchfork, cowboy hat, cat ears and more than a few of those sequin eye masks. (What can I say? I like the classics.) But if you’re itching for something more creative, something more distinctly 2011, then I’ve got 10 celebrities you could most definitely channel.
All you need is a wig and some crazy makeup shades… Keep reading »
Like I mentioned in Friday’s vid, it’s a long weekend here in Canada—so while all of us Canuckis were cottaging, sunning and patio-ing, a little event called the Billboard Music Awards happened. And I am happy to report that our wee Bieber picked up five awards, including Top New Artist. (Is now a good time to ALSO report that he’s launching a women’s fragrance? And hot damn, that rosette on the top really resembles Lola.)
Anyway! I wasn’t really paying attention to the 17-year-old Biebs. I’m way more interested in his girlfriend, Selena Gomez, and all of the other fabulously beautified female celebs in attendance, including Taylor Swift, Fergie and yes… believe it or not, I even have praise for Ke$ha.

…And, okay, worsts too. Because we’re not above a little bit of constructive beauty criticism ’round these here parts.
But obviously when it comes to the Grammy Awards, we give a bit more leeway. Because musicians are, you know, creative and stuff—and that’s why I find myself endorsing things that would otherwise be clownish in real life, such as Rihanna’s matchy-matchy red hair/lips/eyelids, and Katy Perry’s rainbow eye makeup. But more on those later, because first, can we talk about Lea Michele?
FREAKIN’ FANTASTIC, I say. Just ignore that hair that appears to be stuck in her lipstick and instead appreciate the lipstick colour itself (which is kind of like my current fave nail polish shade, OPI’s Too Hot Pink to Hold ‘Em, so no wonder I like it). Hair is also natural and effortless, and you know what? Even her brows are not bothering me today.
For me, Lea wins. But there were a few other peeps who looked fab too: Dianna Agron, Selena Gomez, and BFFs Gwyneth and Beyoncé (BUT OF COURSE). Let’s take a look, and then we can snark about everyone else’s random beauty weirdness… Keep reading »
