15 Ways Celebrities Use Coconut Oil to Look Fabulous
Coconut oil has been on the same planet with us for centuries, but it seem like it takes a few celebrities to make a product visible. In other words, up until the last few years, we were still obsessing with aloe vera, but now that Gwyneth Paltrow is gargling it, Angelina Jolie starts her day with it and Channing Tatum smears it over his wife’s pregnant belly, coconut is your new best friend. But seriously, coconut oil is insanely healthy. It is one of the “good” oils, so you can prepare food with it or use it as a beauty product! Check out how these celebs are using it!
Miranda Kerr’s nude magazine cover removed from Australian stores
Supermodel Miranda Kerr’s raunchy cover for Harper Bazaar Australia was removed from hundreds of grocery store shelves after customers complained about her birthday suit.
According to Women’s Wear Daily, Coles, one of Australia’s two largest supermarket chains, chose to remove the offending cover from their shelves — a total of 776 stores nationwide — after unhappy shoppers voiced their disapproval of the nearly nude cover photo, reported Us magazine.
“In response to feedback from our customers, many of whom shop with their children, we removed the magazine from sale earlier this week,” a spokesman for the retailer said in a statement.
On the cover, Kerr, 32, flaunts her enviable figure in nothing but a pair of Christian Louboutin pumps and a Swarovski necklace and earrings.

Taylor Swift Tries to Trademark Terms “Swiftmas,” “Blank Space,” “1989”
A not-so-merry Swiftmas, y’all. Taylor Swift recently applied to trademark several terms related to her body of work, and among them is the fan favorite “Swiftmas.”
According to blog Tantalizing Trademarks, the 25-year-old singer is also looking to trademark the phrase “Blank Space” (a hit off her 1989 album), “And I’ll Write Your Name” (a line from aforementioned song), “A Girl Named Girl” (the title of a novel Swift wrote when she was 15), and “1989” (in reference to her latest album).
The site reports that Swift submitted an application with her request to trademark the five phrases on Dec. 3; earlier this year, the Grammy winner reportedly also tried to trademark phrases like “this sick beat” and “nice to meet you; where you been,” both lines from her songs "Shake It Off" and "Blank Space," respectively.
It’s important to note, however, that if the application goes through, the use of the term “1989” won’t be trademarked in and of itself — only when it’s in reference to her album title.
The pop singer officially said farewell to her headline-making, star-studded 1989 World Tour on Friday, Dec. 11, with a final show in Melbourne, Australia.
“Melbourne, the first two nights with you have been magical,” she captioned a stunning shot of the stadium where the final concert was held. “Tonight we play this show for the very last time. I’m so honored I get to share the last night of the 1989 World Tour with all of you. This has been the most incredible adventure. Thank you for all of it.”
Swift’s tour, which kicked off in May, has featured dozens of celebrity guests as wide-ranging as Justin Timberlake, Julia Roberts, Alanis Morisette, Lisa Kudrow, and Kobe Bryant.
Keeping Up With the Kardashians Recap: Kourtney Kardashian Struggles to Separate From Scott Disick
It seemed that everyone was stuck between a rock and a hard place on Keeping up With the Kardashians on Sunday, Nov. 15. Front and center was Caitlyn Jenner, who called Kim Kardashian to ask her to attend the ESPYs (where the former Olympian received the Arthur Ashe Courage Award).
Kim agreed to go, but still had some reservations. "We want to go to the ESPYS. We want to support her," the pregnant star explained before adding, "I also am really sensitive to my mom, though, because Caitlyn just did a Vanity Fair article that wasn't so nice to my mom. But I just have to balance out both people so they both feel supported." For her part, Kris Jenner seemed to be holding up well, unveiling her new motto: That was then. This is now.
Kourtney Tries to Cut the Cord (From Scott, That Is)
Things were really rough for Kourtney Kardashian, who revealed to Kim and Kris that she'd asked Scott Disick to move out. Kris responded by comparing Kourtney to a single mom waiting for her partner to come home, and urged her, "You don't need to wait for him to come anymore." (This didn't seem to make Kourt feel any better, just FYI.)
Both her mother and sister predicted she would meet a new love when she least expected it, but Kourtney didn't seem remotely interested in that just yet. "Let's look on the bright side. Now I have a huge closet, you guys," she quipped.
Later on, however, Kourtney admitted the situation was wearing on her. "We're trying to be the best that we can to be a team living apart," she told Kris — who stared at Kourtney like she was speaking Chinese. Kris got it together quickly enough, however, to respond to what her daughter had said. "I really do genuinely care about him and love him, but I want him to know at the same time that he still has to take responsibility," the momager declared.
Kris and Corey (and Khloe and Kourtney) Sitting in a Tree
After grilling her mom about her new boyfriend, Corey Gamble, Khloe Kardashian agreed to join the pair at a winery in Malibu, and recruited Kourtney to come along, too. Kris and Corey arrived via helicopter while Kourt and Khloe took the poor man's transport: a regular old SUV.
Once everyone was settled, Kris and Khloe offered Kourtney (more) unwanted dating advice, which basically amounted to: 1) She would/should never date a basketball player because they're too tall, and 2) Overall, she's just too picky. Fortunately, Kourtney seemed too enthralled by the assortment of animals — including llamas, giraffes, and camels — at the winery to pay much attention to their advice. "I am enjoying myself," Kourtney told the camera. "I am so happy and grateful to have such strong people around me to keep me feeling positive."
Things Get Complex for Khloe
Unable to do her own "sexy" photoshoots due to her pregnancy, Kim enlisted Khloe to pose for the cover of Complex magazine. Though Khloe declared she had body dysmorphia and couldn't possibly pose in a bikini for something like that, Kim charged ahead.
"I appreciate the effort, but I am not like you, Kim," Khloe explained. "I am not comfortable baring my naked a-- on the cover of a magazine. It's weird to do that."
Still, Kim's persistence eventually paid off and Khloe agreed to the shoot. "I want to embrace my body and my curves," she said before adding that she was "very nervous" and did "feel a lot of pressure." The shoot went off without a hitch, however, and by the end of the day, Khloe was singing a different tune, delighted with the shots. "We're going to be on so many jail cells!" she cheered. "It's gonna be ridiculous!" Hey, a girl's gotta have goals.
Caitlyn Gets Her ESPY, Puts Kendall and Kylie in an Awkward Position
The night of the ESPYs finally arrived and all five sisters headed to the awards show to support Caitlyn — but made plans have dinner afterwards with their mother. Kris took the news that all of her daughters were heading to the event in stride, but "decided to sit this one out" herself. "I haven't met Caitlyn yet and I think it would be so awkward to meet her under these circumstances," she revealed to the camera.
Caitlyn's speech went off without a hitch and earned the praise of both of her daughters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner. "I think what my dad is doing now is amazing," Kylie said, while Kendall added, "I think this is a huge step for everyone to process the transition. I love being here to support her and I love seeing my dad happy."
But that happiness was tarnished somewhat when Caitlyn learned that the five girls weren't attending her dinner after the event. "Dad and Mom put me and Kylie into this weird position of choosing between them," Kendall revealed to Kim and Kourtney later on when they were all hanging out. "Dad wouldn't talk to me," she added, looking rather upset. Kim brushed it aside without too much concern.
"It was just so fresh after Vanity Fair and we felt at some point we had to take a stand for Mom," she said. "Caitlyn is not happy with us, [but] there's nothing we can do about it now. We're just doing the best we can to be supportive."
Fortunately, North West was on-hand to change the conversation to lighter topics by suggesting Kim name her next baby Preston. "Preston Dollar!" Mason Disick added. Sounds pretty perfect to Us.
Tell Us: Do you think Kourtney and Scott will really stay broken up this time?
Huge Jackman thinks his replacement as Wolverine is inevitable
Actor Huge Jackman says he is well aware that at some point in future someone else would take his place as Wolverine in the ‘X Men’ series as it is “inevitable” to be in showbiz forever.
The 45-year-old Hollywood heartthrob, who has played the hit character in the previous ‘X-Men’ films, will be next seen as the clawed mutant in ‘X-Men: Days of Future Past’, reported Ace Showbiz.
“I’m sure they (producers) had the discussion. They didn’t mention it to me, obviously! Look, that’s inevitable, man. Anyone who thinks they’re indispensable in this business is fooling themselves,” Jackman said.
The Australian actor is blessed to have starred as the powerful mutant.
“But I feel unbelievably blessed to have this part. I never thought in a million years I’d get to play him seven times. Every day I walk on the set with the claws and the hair, I thank my lucky stars. I don’t take any of it for granted,” he said.
“I think that’s why I’m still here. I’m sure by the way, that it won’t always be my decision to always be here. At some point, someone will close the door on me,” he added.

I like taking hip-hop dance classes: Reese Witherspoon
Oscar-winner Reese Witherspoon says she is a hip-hop enthusiast is taking classes to master the dance form.
The 37-year-old actress and ‘The Mindy Project’ star Mindy Kaling were interviewing each other in a conference, where they both shared their likes and dislikes, reported E!Online.
“Few people know this about me, but I like to take hip-hop dance classes. I’m not saying I’m good at hip-hop dance classes, I just enjoy taking them. I liked taking dance classes when I was in high school and I was never any good at it,” Witherspoon said.
“But they would bring three girls to the front and they’d say, ‘Okay, watch Sarah for her arms. And watch Lily for her legs. And watch Reese for her personality’,” she added.
“Something about you reminds me of Emma Thompson. She always plays intelligent characters,” Mindy said to Witherspoon.
To which a flattered Witherspoon replied, “She’s really much smarter than I am.”

“It would be hard not to be (honoured and grateful for success). I get to do the things I dreamt of as a kid, like working now with Clint Eastwood and being able to work twice with David O Russell. I am absolutely living the dream,” Cooper said.

Talk Show host Oprah Winfrey will help Hollywood star Brad Pitt produce a movie on the African-American Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King.
The 59-year-old ‘The Oprah Winfrey Talk-show’ star will produce the movie ‘Selma’, in which her ‘Butler’ co-star David Oyelowo will play the lead role, the Hollywood Reporter said.
“It’s a subject matter close to her heart. The producers are behind some of the most forward-thinking movies of last year, and they are all coming together,” said Ava DuVernay, the director of the movie.
The film tells the story of a group of black marchers who attempt to walk from Selma in Alabama, to nearby Montgomery in order to gain the right to vote in 1965. However, the protesters find themselves in the crosshairs of the police.
Winfrey will produce with Brad Pitt through his Plan B Productions company which has also produced award-winning movie ’12 Years a Slave’.
Old Hollywood meets new on Golden Globes carpet

Jennifer Lawrence chose Dior, with two tiers on a full skirt cinched at the waist and below by black trim. |
Lupita Nyong’o wowed in a sexy, caped red silk strapless gown from Ralph Lauren and Lena Dunham showed up Sunday night in form-fitting canary yellow - tattoos out – for the Golden Globes, one of Hollywood’s biggest fashion fests. Kerry Washington complemented her baby bump in a sleeveless white gown with a low neck and jacket-like top from Balenciaga. “I also feel like I have the best date of the night, my little accessory here,” she told E! Entertainment dressed in a signature color for her Olivia Pope on ‘Scanda’. Also in white was Jennifer Lawrence. She chose Dior, with two tiers on a full skirt cinched at the waist and below by black trim. Julia Roberts wore a black gown topped by a white, button-down collar shirtwaist look from Dolce & Gabbana. “It’s a very interesting intersection of evening wear and daywear, but one that you have to be her to wear,” stylist Robert Verdi said. Hal Rubenstein, editor-at-large of InStyle magazine, gushed about Nyong’o's column dress and overall look, especially for an actress virtually unknown until her appearance as Patsey in ’12 Years a Slave’. “The color was extraordinary against her skin. There was something so regal about that dress. She didn’t muck it up with tons of jewelry, and the boyish hair made it look even cooler,” he said. Early arrivals included Zooey Deschanel in a gold ballet-skirted Oscar de la Renta with a youthful, boxy cropped top and vintage Neil Lane earrings. Other stars and nominees went for older Hollywood shimmer in slinky gold, silver and Champagne. Cate Blanchett provided a Katharine Hepburn moment in Armani with high lace at the neck and a how-low-can-you-go back, along with Chopard earrings. Amy Poehler picked three custom gowns from Stella McCartney, including a slinky black halter look, while her co-host for the awards season opener, Tina Fey, went for a fuller, strapless red and black from Carolina Herrera as her first look. Amy Adams wore two shades of red in a backless high-waisted halter dress with a plunging neckline to the waist by Valentino. It evoked her risque-dressing ’70s character in ‘American Hustle’. Dunham, yanking at the top of her Zac Posen gown as she waited for her turn on the red carpet, joked about eating and the awards season as she practiced her diva poses. “I actually ate a thick patty of hamburger before I came, like a cave woman,” she joked to E! More subdued was Elisabeth Moss in an embellished Bordeaux and black, short-sleeve gown from J. Mendel, her choice from about five she considered. Tom Ford was Hayden Panettiere’s choice – a black-and-white halter with a high side slit. ”I’d wear a plastic bag if it was designed by him,” she said on E! This year’s red carpet had some bold color thanks to Reese Witherspoon in bluish turquoise from the Calvin Klein Collection and a pregnant Olivia Wilde in emerald Gucci. Helen Mirren wore a lighter shade of green, a bespoke jade tulle and chiffon gown with a draped waist and an orchid-flower design from Jenny Packham. Diane Keaton, honoring Woody Allen during the broadcast, took to the podium in a Ralph Lauren custom black wool tuxedo. And Paula Patton, a presenter, raised an eyebrow or two in a huge ruffled along one side of her white, very fitted gown. The redcarpet had a few ‘Gone With the Wind’ moments, Verdi said, with full princess skirts that could have easily worn their recipients rather than the other way around. He counted Fey’s red carpet look and Sofia Vergara’s Zac Posen among them. Vergara, with huge statement blue Lorraine Schwartz jewels around her neck, might agree. I feel like I’m carrying a tent,” she told E! “I think I’m smuggling Colombians underneath this dress.”

Leonardo DiCaprio said: Mr Bachchan impressed me immensely by not just his talent and his ability to act. |
After Baz Luhrmann’s ‘The Great Gatsby’, Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio wants to work with Bollywood mega star Amitabh Bachchan again. The film was an adaptation of F Scott Fitzgerald’s novel of the same name. DiCaprio played the protagonist Jay Gatsby, while 71-year-old Bachchan donned the role of his friend Meyer Wolfsheim, a gambler in a cameo. “Mr Bachchan impressed me immensely by not just his talent and his ability to act, but what a gentleman he was. I was honoured to work with him. It was great seeing that enthusiasm he brings to even the smallest of roles and I would love to work with him in the future,” DiCaprio said in a statement. Amitabh Bachchan and DiCaprio shared mutual admiration during the shoot and also during the promotion of the movie. The duo together inaugurated the Cannes Film Festival last year, where ‘The Great Gatsby’ was the opening film. DiCaprio, 39, latest release is ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ for which he won the Golden Globe for the best actor.
