Angelina Jolie On Her & Brad Pitt's Film Future : We 'Don't Want To Be Doing This Our Whole Lives'
"[Acting is] like being in therapy, in a way," Angelina explained of why she "needed acting more" in her younger years, during an interview with the Financial Times posted on Friday. "You ask these questions as you grow up: am I strong enough, am I sane enough? Do I understand love, do I understand myself?
"I'm older [now] and I know who I am," she continued. "I'm less interested in the character helping me answer something ... than in being able to answer it for myself, as a woman, as an adult, with my family."
Although the Academy Award-winning actress admits she no longer loves acting "as much as she did," she couldn't resist the role of CIA agent Evelyn Salt - a character originally written to be played by a man for 2010's action thriller, "Salt" - when she read the script in 2008 while breastfeeding her and Brad's newborn twins, Knox and Vivienne in the hospital.
"I was... feeling so soft and mama ... and I was flipping these pages and it was all fighting and shooting guns," Angelina said. "I thought, 'That's what I need. I need to get out of my nightgown and I need a gun.'
"I'm sure many a woman who has been through childbirth has thought, 'It would be nice to get a little physical, get a little wild ... to remember what that other side is like,'" she added.
The stunning star recently took her first turn behind the camera for her upcoming directorial debut, "In the Land of Blood and Honey" - due out in theaters on December 23 - and revealed she and Brad, who both devote much of their free time to charitable causes, plan to lessen their movie commitments in the future.
"As Brad and I get older we're going to do fewer films. I've been working for a long time, he's been working for a long time," she said. "We've had a nice run and don't want to be doing this our whole lives. There are a lot of other things to do."
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Brad - who famously told Esquire magazine in 2006 that he and Angelina would not marry until "everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able" - recently revealed the couple's children are forcing the power pair to reexamine that position.
"The kids ask about marriage," Brad told USA Today's Weekend Edition in May. "It's meaning more and more to them. So, it's something we've got to look at."[oscars.movies.yahoo.com]
Zara Phillips, Mike Tindall Get Married
Queen Elizabeth's eldest granddaughter Zara Phillips said "I do" to her rugby player beau Mike Tindall Saturday. The bride, 30, and groom, 32, wed at Canongate Kirk church in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Also in attendance for the ceremony? Phillips' mother Princess Anne (Prince Charles' sister), her cousins Prince William, Prince Harry, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, plus Duchess Kate. An insider told Us Weekly the church was covered with white roses and beech tree branches.
The newlyweds' private reception will take place at Palace of Holyroodhouse, one of the Queen's official residences.
Friday night, Phillips and Tindall celebrated their upcoming nuptials aboard the Royal Yacht Britannia. Kate, 29, recycled the green Diane Von Furstenberg dress she wore earlier this month to a reception held in her and William's honor at British Consul-General Barbara Hay's L.A. Residence.[usmagazine.com]

5 Hot Tips: How to Pick Sexy Lingerie
1. How to choose the shape of the bra?
The shape of the bar depends upon the neckline of your dress.
You want sexy and low-cut rounded neck? Choose the bra with cups resembling fruit basket. For example, a balconette underwired bra - it most open decolette. This brasserie is perfect for sheath dresses and tops - your breast looks naturally curvy and the bra fits any dress perfectly.
If your dress has a plunging neckline, select a bra with low decolette. Cups cut it a half-moon shape open the upper part of your breast making a very sexy effect. This bra perfectly fits a low squared decolette.
When choosing a ‘bold' low-cut neckline, put on push-up bras and look like femme fatale. This sexy bra is very practical and makes it possible to wear open dresses. If you want to visually enlarge your breast, select a double-padded bra, in which the breasts are lifted and placed closer together to enhance the cleavage.
And, finally, if you are going to move heaven and earth and to try a dress with a plunging neckline, pick the most revealing bra. Owing to rounded cups and low decolette line, this bra would make a slashing effect. Cups would make your breasts look closer to each other, it would look very sexy.
2. What fabric should be selected for sexy lingerie?
Lace, embroidery, tulle, satin, organza... There is a wide variety of fabric available for sexy lingerie. How to make the right choice? Everything depends upon your taste and the effect you'd like to achieve. Lace-decorated satin looks very sexy. Tulle lingerie with embroidery is not only sexy but has a retro flair.
Type of fabric should be selected with care; you should keep you figure in mind. Satin visually adds pounds. There is nothing more feminine and delicates as lace or intricate embroidery.
Then to achieve the desired effect you have to pick a right model which would add you beauty and charm. Don't be afraid to combine different fabrics. Say, what a wonderful set of lacy bra and string with several small satin inlays.
3. Girdle - an essential detail of sexy lingerie
A symbol of sexuality, the girdle, is not mandatory nowadays. But if you like it, wear it to finish the look. The color of your girdle must match the color of your panties. Trimming with embroidery or bows is crucial. Try to combine different fabrics, for example, satin and tulle. To avoid embarrassing situations, be sure that straps are not seen when you sit.
But if you don't like girdles but opt to wear a skin-tight skirt and to show your silken ankles, pick the so called stay-ups. They are not so revealing but very provocative and at the same time easy to wear.
4. Sexy lingerie fits any figure
It often occurs that a girl who dislikes her figure puts her sexy lingerie out of sight to the drawer. But alluring lingerie, if properly chosen, fits any figure.
If you have shapely breasts, slender waist and well-rounded buns, low-cut bra with boyshirts would fit perfectly. Shirts visibly reduce volume. Choose black or dark violet color.
If you are plump, don't be afraid of wearing lacy balconette. To achieve the desired effect, pick a chic top. Together with loose boyshirts this bra would look very seductive. But if you want to put on a clinging dress and hide your tummy, then choose a form-fitting bustier, a corset reaching the waist. Well tight it will subtly emphasize your waist and mask everything you want to hide.
If you are slender and petite, try a push-up bra and string. Then you may put on a smart low-necked dress and shoot everyone dead.
5. What color to choose?
The most fascinating lingerie colors are black and red. Black is more versatile: it fits everything perfectly.
Dark violet, chocolate, dark blue - these are popular choices in sexy lingerie. White color can not make your look less sensual but adds a bit of chastity to it.
Remember: to look sexy, you have to perfectly match top with bottom. Pink strings completely disagrees with blue brasserie. But all the while you may choose accessories of different color - stockings, ornaments, feathers. Everything is perfect for you sexual image. Sensuality is always beautiful.[luxemag.org]
6 Lingerie Shopping Tips
1. Buying Full-figured Lingerie
When shopping for plus-size lingerie, try to find articles that flatter your shape and are comfortable to wear. Dark colors can be slimming and it is better to wear lingerie that shows off your curves rather than hiding them away. Full figures can be very attractive, it is just important to emphasize your curves and shape rather than covering everything up.
2. Lingerie Shopping Tips For Men
Face it; there's nothing more titillating and frustrating than lingerie shopping for your woman. Here are a couple of main pointers. Remember the lingerie is for her, not you. That is, she has to wear it, so keep her comfort level in mind. Choose pieces that say "I love you" not "Let's get it on." A woman likes to feel adored and desired.
3.Baby Yourself With A Babydoll
One really nice intimate garment you're likely to find in a plus size lingerie store is the baby doll. This is a sleeveless, loose fitting top with sheer material attached with lengths varying from just under the breasts to the derriere. Because the baby doll is loose fitting, it can't easily be worn under clothing and is really reserved only for bedroom wear. Because the baby doll is loose fitting, it makes an ideal piece of plus size lingerie.
4. Where To Buy Lingerie
While it's ideal to be able to shop for lingerie in a brick-and-mortar lingerie store where you can try on items, this is not always possible. Luckily the internet offers lingerie shopping online. Be sure you know your sizes. Also, read carefully about what material your garment is made of to avoid later disappointment. There's nothing worse than getting leather when you wanted lace (or vice versa!).
5. Online Shopping For Lingerie
If you feel a little embarrassed about going into a sexy lingerie store to purchase erotic lingerie, try shopping online. This offers a discreet option for all shoppers. Also it gives you chance to really look through our entire product line before making a purchase -- all in the privacy of your own home! Many online stores also offer discreet, non-descript packaging as well.
6. Buy Lingerie Together!
Erotic lingerie can be fun for both partners. Woman sometimes feel a little embarrassed putting it on, but once they realize their partner is really enjoying it, embarrassment diminishes. Risqué lingerie has always had a slight taboo, but this fact only adds to the fun. You may wish to shop for lingerie together. The act of choosing the pieces and imagining them being worn is almost as exciting as actually wearing them![lingerie.lifetips.com]

You've had your special day, now make your night special! An entire line of bridal lingerie is available to make the first night with your husband a more than memorable occasion.

Add a little color to your wedding night by switching from classic white to a burgundy or claret satin gown. Even better, hide a corset and garter belt under a flowing satin robe and tease your man with a little strip tease!
4. Here Comes The Bride, All Dressed In Lace
Silk and satin may be the most common fabrics for sexy bridal lingerie. But there are so many others as well. Why not play up your curves with a lace corset? There's a timeless elegance about lace. Not to mention how sexy and lovely you can look in it. Just because your dress is super simple, doesn't mean your lingerie needs to be.
5. Plus Size Bridal Lingerie
It goes without saying that your wedding night should be one of the sexiest of your life. Why not seal the deal with plus size bridal lingerie that shows off the body he loves? You'd be hard pressed to find a man who doesn't appreciate seeing his lady in a peek-a-boo teddy and heels!

Ben Affleck Vs. Justin Bieber : Who Rocks The Shag Better?
Ben Affleck is sporting a retro ‘do for an upcoming political thriller, Argo, which is set in 1981 — and we couldn’t help but compare him to the one and only hair trendsetter of today, Justin Bieber. When it comes to shaggy locks, who do YOU think looks best?
We have to admit, it’s bizarre seeing Ben, a 38-year-old father of two, trying out what’s become a tween trend. That said, in the battle of long, straightened hair, we give it over to the 17-year-old rockstar.[hollywoodlife.com]
Kat Von D : Why I Got Jesse James' Face Tattooed on My Ribcage
"He had a rough childhood, so to see what he's become from there, it's amazing. That's why I wanted the picture of him as a child, to capture that certain innocence," Von D (real name: Katherine Drachenberg) said on Thursday's L.A. Ink premiere. "It was good having him beside me while we finished. The tattoo is a way of him recognizing somebody loves him."
The reality star also explained how she and James, 41, first became a couple. "We were friends forever so I thought dating would be weird," she said. "I never saw him like that. and once you're in my friend zone, that's usually it. But one day something in my heart said, 'How's your friend Jesse?' so I texted him a joke and he came right back saying he hadn't laughed in weeks."
The pair stepped out as a couple in August 2010 and announced their engagement five months later. After splitting with James in July 2011, Von D, 29, pulled out of several pre-scheduled TV appearances.
"Today felt pretty impossible," she explained on Facebook Thursday. "Most of the time, regardless of what's going on around me, I'm usually strong enough not to get things get to me like this. But today there seems to be no way of escaping my thoughts. 'What have I done? I sure made a mess of things.'"
"Although my intentions were never to offend or hurt anyone's feelings, this isn't an apology for walking out on a silly morning show interview this morning -- and this isn't an attempt at justifying anything either," Von D said of bailing on her Good Day L.A. appearance. (She also canceled an E! News interview that afternoon.)
"I don't expect people to understand, just like I can't expect myself to be able to please everyone at all times," she added. "As much as I'd like to picture [myself] being this strong, independent woman, the truth is most of the time I'm not as strong as I'd like to be -- but I'm still trying."[omg.yahoo.com]
Hugh Hefner : Crystal Harris Lied About Our ‘Two Second’ Sex Life !
Crystal Harris didn’t stop at leaving Hugh Hefner a day before their wedding, she also insulted him by saying sex with him lasted “two seconds” during the one time she says they slept together. Some nerve. Hef has been a good sport about Crystal, joking about watching Runaway Bride after she dumped him, but now he’s had enough. “Crystal lied about our relationship on Howard Stern but I don’t know why. Maybe a new boyfriend?” tweeted Hef last night, before he removed the message later on.And that’s not the only lie he’s upset about. “Crystal convinced me that she adored me. That was the first lie,” he explained on Twitter.
But Hef says he’s happy with his new girlfriends and realizes Crystal “didn’t love” him. In fact, he pities her. “I feel sorry for Crystal. She seems lost.”
Ouch. Crystal’s not the only one who can dish out insults.[hollywoodlife.com]

Check Out Kim Kardashian's Wedding Invitation
As expected, Kris Jenner and her husband, Bruce, are hosting the swanky affair. Last month, the over-the-top momager nearly had a nervous breakdown before bravely going under the knife for a pre-wedding facelift. Dedication!
As you can see, the high-gloss, black-and-white invite is flanked on either side by cards containing "Information and Details" and a formal notice that reception and dinner will follow the nuptials. According to E! Online, there is a request to keep the information confidential, which is necessary to keep TMZ's helicopters at bay.
People.com reports that the invite was delivered inside its own box, and is decorated with "hundreds of jet black hematite crystals." The designer, Lehr & Black, also crafted invitations for Khloe Kardashian's wedding to L.A. Laker Lamar Odom in September 2009.
Kardashian and Humphries got engaged in May (recall: the reality star's jaw-dropping, $2 million mega-rock). Kardashian's bridal gown is reportedly a Vera Wang creation, and last weekend, the pair kicked off the festivities with a double bachelor and bachelorette parties in Vegas. [omg.yahoo.com]
Lady Gaga Treats Fans to McDonald's Feast
She also sat down for a light-hearted interview with Jimmy, where she discussed everything from her first driving experience in Los Angeles (she only had a learner's permit) to Italian cooking and even bowling. When Jimmy asked Gaga -- who was bizarrely nominated to be inducted into the International Bowling Hall of Fame -- if she wears rented bowling shoes while at the lanes, the pop star replied, "Absolutely not. What if one of my fans walked into the bowling alley and saw me in flats? I think they'd have a heart attack."
Speaking of her Little Monsters, a group of fans gathered outside of Chateau Marmont (where she was staying) and serenaded the singer while she primped for her Kimmel appearance. Moved by their adoration, Lady Gaga reportedly treated them all to McDonald's. "Sending some yummies to Chateau Monster tummies," she tweeted. Forget bowling in flats ... now that's a way for Gaga to ensure her faithful followers all have heart attacks.[omg.yahoo.com]
Rachel Zoe Spoils Infant Son With $87,000 Nursery
During a Wednesday appearance on Nightline, the 39-year-old stylist took ABC's Juju Chang on a tour of her son's luxe walk-in closet. Zoe proudly showed off Skyler's $1,160 Gucci bomber jacket, as well as his $3,700 shoe collection. Though the infant is too young to walk, his footwear options include a $150 pair of Tod's loafers (among several other high-end labels). Skyler's shoes are kept in an Oeuf mini-library, which retails for $650.
Skyler also owns a $1,400 Hermes blanket (with two matching $522 cushions) in his $914 crib. Should Skyler want to sleep somewhere else, he also has a $1,000 wooden bassinet.
Other pricey items in Skyler's nursery include a giant stuffed giraffe ($163), a silver piggy bank ($1,355) and $78,000 worth of designer clothing, according to estimates by The Daily Mail.
Not everything in Skyler's nursery was hand-picked by Zoe, who welcomed Skyler in March with husband Rodger Berman: the infant was gifted with three pieces of knitwear by his mother's friend, designer Margherita Missoni.[omg.yahoo.com]
Joe Jonas' New Leading Lady?
Recently, rumors have swirled that in real life Joe has been dating Marc Jacobs model Karlie Kloss. The two met earlier this month at a polo match in Santa Barbara, California, that Prince William and Kate Middleton also attended. To find out whether the two are still seeing each other, the New York Daily News slyly asked Kevin Jonas' wife, Danielle, on Tuesday how she liked Kloss. "Yes! I like her a lot," Danielle said.
Joe, on the other hand, is denying that he has a relationship with any one woman. "It's nice to focus on one thing sometimes, and for now that's my music," Britain's Daily Mail reported Joe saying. "It's tough when you're far away from someone for long periods of time and so when you're single you don't need to feel bad about that. But, you're always looking for the right person." Coming from the guy who had very public romances with Ashley Greene, Demi Lovato, and more, I tend to believe him. What about you? [omg.yahoo.com]
Nicky Hilton & David Katzenberg Split After 4 Years
A friend of the couple explained that: "They broke up quietly after four years together. The main reason was that they have been busy with their work schedules, and it has made it difficult to spend time together," a friend of the couple revealed."
They added: "There is no scandal or any third person - they remain close friends, they have been friends since they were teenagers."
David, son of DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg, and Hilton have apparently been in regular contact since the break-up.
The pair were to be engaged in 2008, but Hilton denied that she and David had any plans to marry.
Prior to her relationship with David, Hilton married Wall Street businessman Todd Andrew Meister in 2004. Their union was annulled after just three months.[rte.ie]

Crystal Harris, 25: Sex With Hugh Hefner, 85, Lasted "Two Seconds"
"[It lasted] like, two seconds," Harris, 25, said, dissing the famed men's magazine editor. "Then I was just over it. I was like, 'Ahh.' I was over it. I just, like, walked away. I'm not turned on by Hef. Sorry."
The hurtful claims shouldn't be too surprising given the fact that Harris partied with VH1 reality star Heidi Montag on what would have been her wedding day. Adding to Hefner's heartache was Harris' "hot and heavy" affair with Dr. Phil McGraw's son Jordan, 26. (In June, an insider told Us Weekly that Harris and McGraw had been together six months prior to her split with Hefner.)
Still, Hefner is wise enough to know that everything happens for a reason. "After all is said and done, staying single is probably the best," he tweeted in June. "I think I just missed a bullet."[usmagazine.com]
Salman Khan's enemy list
It is said that the two hunks had certain financial issues and it resulted in Salman severing ties with John. The two was seen sharing screen space in Babul but the cold vibes between them could not go unnoticed.
Salman’s bitterness splashed over to John Abraham’s sultry girlfriend, Bipasha and Salman refused to work with her.
This unpredictable patch up took place at Mehboob Studio on the sets of Rohit Dhawan’s directorial venture “Desi Boyz”. Sanjay Dutt has been roped in to play a cameo in the movie that stars Akshay Kumar, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham and Chitrangada Singh. Salman had arrived on the sets to meet his buddies, Sanjay Dutt and Akshay Kumar.
When John saw Salman on the sets, his discomfort was evident. Not knowing how to react, the No Smoking star, John gave a hesitant smile. The next thing that happened took everyone by surprise; Salman Khan and John Abraham hugged.
A source from the set says that both the stars took a “few steps towards each other”. The hug was followed by a celebration on the set. Later John and Salman had lunch together.[worstinside.blogspot.com]

Denise Richards and Her Babes in the Big Apple
Denise celebrated her newly expanded family over the weekend with a baby shower in Beverly Hills and a guest list including Tori Spelling, Ali Landry, and Alison Sweeney. "Some people think if a celebrity wants a baby, they get one the next day. The adoption took two years, and there were times I felt discouraged, times when I got close to adopting a baby and it fell through," Denise told Us Weekly earlier this month. "But I knew the right baby would find us."
During an appearance on the "Today" show on Tuesday, Denise talked about her new book, explaining that the erratic Charlie Sheen the world saw this year was not the man she married ... it was the one she divorced. "I still care very much for him and want him well," she tells Matt Lauer.[yahoo.com]

Mariah Carey: Pregnancy Was "a Really Difficult Time"
In a Sunday night appearance on HSN, Mariah Carey reminisced about her "47-week" pregnancy with twins Moroccan and Monroe.
Carey, 41, and hubby Nick Cannon, 30, welcomed their babies on April 30, their third wedding anniversary. When one caller asked the new mom if she remembered speaking with her in February, Carey admitted that was a "bleak" time.
"I was so uncomfortable," she said. "I'm kind of proud of myself. I really am -- sorry, pregnant with twins is different than anything! [People] were always saying to me, 'Oh, but it's all worth it!' Yeah, but it's easy to say when you're not the one whose feet are this big! It turned into like a really difficult time."
"My body went through so much," she added. "Holding those twins in -- you have to keep them in as long as possible. It's a sacrifice you make for them. Literally I was like, 47-weeks pregnant. And anybody pregnant right now, there's push gifts here. Tell your baby-father."
Carey instructed the camera operators to avoid close-ups and take the focus away from her. At one point, she explained: "There's always drama. It follows me."
Amy Winehouse's Autopsy Results Are "Inconclusive"
The cause of Amy Winehouse's death will remain a mystery for at least a few more weeks.
An autopsy performed Monday at St. Pancras Mortuary in London did not establish a formal cause of death, Metropolitan Police tell Us Weekly in a statement. "We are awaiting the results of further toxicology tests," they add.
Sky News has reported her parents Mitch and Janis "formally identified" Winehouse's body Monday morning and that there "no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of Amy Winehouse."
A spokesperson for the Winehouse family told BBC News that they are hoping to hold their daughter's funeral as soon as possible, but the post-mortem and police investigation have "made it impossible" to set a date.
Early Monday morning, Mitch and Janis Winehouse joined their daughter's boyfriend, Reg Traviss, to meet with mourner's outside the singer's Camden Square home in London.

Troubled diva Amy Winehouse dead at 27 club
"They tried to make me go to rehab," she sang on her world-conquering 2006 single, "Rehab." "I said 'No, no no.'"
Occasionally, she said yes, but to no avail: repeated stints in hospitals and clinics couldn't stop alcohol and drugs scuttling the career of a singer whose distinctive voice, rich mix of influences and heart-on-her sleeve sensibility seemed to promise great things.
In her short lifetime, Winehouse too often made headlines because of drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders, destructive relationships and abortive performances. But it's her small but powerful body of recorded music that will be her legacy.
The singer was found dead Saturday at age 27 by ambulance crews called to her home in north London's Camden area, a youth-culture mecca known for its music scene, its pubs - and the availability of illegal drugs.
The London Ambulance Service said Winehouse had died before crews arrived at the house in leafy Camden Square. The cause of death was not immediately known.
The singer's body was taken from her home by private ambulance to a London mortuary where post-mortem examinations were to be carried out either Sunday or Monday. Police said in a statement no arrests have been made in connection with her death.
It was not a complete surprise, but the news was still a huge shock for millions around the world. The size of Winehouse's appeal was reflected in the extraordinary range of people paying tribute as they heard the news, from Demi Moore - who tweeted "Truly sad news ... May her troubled soul find peace" - to chef Jamie Oliver, who wrote "such a waste, raw talent" on the social networking site.
Tony Bennett, who recorded the pop standard "Body And Soul" with Winehouse at London's Abbey Road Studios in March for an upcoming duets album, called her "an artist of immense proportions."
"She was an extraordinary musician with a rare intuition as a vocalist and I am truly devastated that her exceptional talent has come to such an early end," he said.
Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood said he was dedicating Saturday's reunion performance of his band The Faces to Winehouse. "It's a very sad loss of a very good friend I spent many great times with," he said.
Winehouse was something rare in an increasingly homogenized music business - an outsized personality and an unclassifiable talent.
She shot to fame with the album "Back to Black," whose blend of jazz, soul, rock and classic pop was a global hit. It won five Grammys and made Winehouse - with her black beehive hairdo and old-fashioned sailor tattoos - one of music's most recognizable stars.
"I didn't go out looking to be famous," Winehouse told the Associated Press when the album was released. "I'm just a musician."
But in the end, the music was overshadowed by fame, and by Winehouse's demons. Tabloids lapped up the erratic stage appearances, drunken fights, stints in hospital and rehab clinics. Performances became shambling, stumbling train wrecks, watched around the world on the Internet.
Last month, Winehouse canceled her European comeback tour after she swayed and slurred her way through barely recognizable songs in her first show in the Serbian capital of Belgrade. Booed and jeered off stage, she flew home and her management said she would take time off to recover.
Fans who had kept the faith waited in vain for a followup to "Back to Black."
Born in 1983 to taxi driver Mitch Winehouse and his pharmacist wife Janis, Winehouse grew up in the north London suburbs, and was set on a showbiz career from an early age. When she was 10, she and a friend formed a rap group, Sweet 'n' Sour - Winehouse was Sour - that she later described as "the little white Jewish Salt 'n' Pepa."
She attended the Sylvia Young Theatre School, a factory for British music and acting moppets, later went to the Brit School, a performing arts academy in the "Fame" mold, and was originally signed to "Pop Idol" svengali Simon Fuller's 19 Management.
But Winehouse was never a packaged teen star, and always resisted being pigeonholed.
Her jazz-influenced 2003 debut album, "Frank," was critically praised and sold well in Britain. It earned Winehouse an Ivor Novello songwriting award, two Brit nominations and a spot on the shortlist for the Mercury Music Prize.
But Winehouse soon expressed dissatisfaction with the disc, saying she was "only 80 percent behind" the album.
"Frank" was followed by a slump during which Winehouse broke up with her boyfriend, suffered a long period of writer's block and, she later said, smoked a lot of marijuana.
"I had writer's block for so long," she said in 2007. "And as a writer, your self-worth is literally based on the last thing you wrote. ... I used to think, 'What happened to me?'
"At one point it had been two years since the last record and (the record company) actually said to me, 'Do you even want to make another record?' I was like, 'I swear it's coming.' I said to them, 'Once I start writing I will write and write and write. But I just have to start it.'"
The album she eventually produced was a sensation.
Released in Britain in the fall of 2006, "Back to Black" brought Winehouse global fame. Working with producers Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi and soul-funk group the Dap-Kings, Winehouse fused soul, jazz, doo-wop and, above all, a love of the girl-groups of the early 1960s with lyrical tales of romantic obsession and emotional excess.
"Back to Black" was released in the United States in March 2007 and went on to win five Grammy awards, including song and record of the year for "Rehab."
Music critic John Aizlewood attributed her trans-Atlantic success to a fantastic voice and a genuinely original sound.
"A lot of British bands fail in America because they give America something Americans do better - that's why most British hip-hop has failed," he said. "But they won't have come across anything quite like Amy Winehouse."
Winehouse's rise was helped by her distinctive look - black beehive of hair, thickly lined cat eyes, girly tattoos - and her tart tongue.
She was famously blunt in her assessment of her peers, once describing Dido's sound as "background music - the background to death" and saying of pop princess Kylie Minogue, "she's not an artist ... she's a pony."
The songs on "Black to Black" detailed breakups and breakdowns with a similar frankness. Lyrically, as in life, Winehouse wore her heart on her sleeve.
"I listen to a lot of '60s music, but society is different now," Winehouse said in 2007. "I'm a young woman and I'm going to write about what I know."
Even then, Winehouse's performances were sometimes shambolic, and she admitted she was "a terrible drunk."
Increasingly, her personal life began to overshadow her career.
She acknowledged struggling with eating disorders and told a newspaper that she had been diagnosed as manic depressive but refused to take medication. Soon accounts of her erratic behavior, canceled concerts and drink- and drug-fueled nights began to multiply.
Photographs caught her unsteady on her feet or vacant-eyed, and she appeared unhealthily thin, with scabs on her face and marks on her arms.
There were embarrassing videos released to the world on the Internet. One showed an addled Winehouse and Babyshambles singer Pete Doherty playing with newborn mice. Another, for which Winehouse apologized, showed her singing a racist ditty to the tune of a children's song.
Winehouse's managers went to increasingly desperate lengths to keep the wayward star on the straight and narrow. Before a June 2011 concert in Belgrade - the first stop on a planned European comeback tour - her hotel was stripped of booze. It did no good,
Winehouse swayed and slurred her way through barely recognizable songs, as her band played gamely and the audience jeered and booed.
Winehouse flew home. Her management canceled the tour, saying Winehouse would take some time off to recover.
Though she was often reported to be working on new material, fans got tired of waiting for the much-promised followup to "Back to Black."
Occasional bits of recording saw the light of day. Her rendition of The Zutons' "Valerie" was a highlight of producer Mark Ronson's 2007 album "Version," and she recorded the pop classic "It's My Party" for the 2010 Quincy Jones album "Q: Soul Bossa Nostra."
But other recording projects with Ronson, one of the architects of the success of "Back to Black," came to nothing.
She also had run-ins with the law. In April 2008, Winehouse was cautioned by police for assault after she slapped a man during a raucous night out.
The same year she was investigated by police, although not charged, after a tabloid newspaper published a video that appeared to show her smoking crack cocaine.
In 2010, Winehouse pleaded guilty to assaulting a theater manager who asked her to leave a family Christmas show because she'd had too much to drink. She was given a fine and a warning to stay out of trouble by a judge who praised her for trying to clean up her act.
In May 2007 in Miami, she married music industry hanger-on Blake Fielder-Civil, but the honeymoon was brief. That November, Fielder-Civil was arrested for an attack on a pub manager the year before. Fielder-Civil later pleaded guilty to assaulting barman James King and then offering him 200,000 pounds (US$400,000) to keep quiet about it.
Winehouse stood by "my Blake" throughout his trial, often blowing kisses at him from the court's public gallery and wearing a heart-shaped pin labeled "Blake" in her hair at concerts. But British newspapers reported extramarital affairs while Fielder-Civil was behind bars.
They divorced in 2009.
Winehouse's health often appeared fragile. In June 2008 and again in April 2010, she was taken to hospital and treated for injuries after fainting and falling at home.
Her father said she had developed the lung disease emphysema from smoking cigarettes and crack, although her spokeswoman later said Winehouse only had "early signs of what could lead to emphysema."
She left the hospital to perform at Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday concert in Hyde Park in June 2008, and at the Glastonbury festival the next day, where she received a rousing reception but scuffled with a member of the crowd. Then it was back to a London clinic for treatment, continuing the cycle of music, excess and recuperation that marked her career.
Her last public appearance came three days before her death, when she briefly joined her goddaughter, singer Dionne Bromfield, on stage at The Roundhouse in Camden, just around the corner from her home.
Despite the years of frustration and disappointment, Winehouse retained a huge body of fans, all hoping she would find her feet again. Some gathered outside her home after her death, laying flowers, comforting each other and taking in the police tape and ambulance that marked the end of her journey.
Winehouse is survived by her parents and an older brother, Alex. Her father, Mitch, who released a jazz album of his own, was in New York when he heard the news of her death and immediately flew back.
Winehouse's spokesman, Chris Goodman, said "everyone who was involved with Amy is shocked and devastated." He said the family would issue a statement when they were ready.[forbes.com]
Jennifer Aniston and Other Celebrities in Overhyped Nude Scenes
Sandra Bullock
Perhaps one of the best examples is America's other sweetheart. Much ado was made of her nude scene with Ryan Reynolds in her 2009 movie "The Proposal," with Bullock saying of appearing sans clothes, "Sadly, my first and last nude scene got laughs, so I had to be very secure with that." Experts on Sandra's skintimate past will note that she already appeared nude in the 1993 movie "Fire on the Amazon," but she was probably just hoping that everyone had forgotten about that little gem (so maybe she was also lying about her nude scene in "The Proposal" being her last). Anyway, Sandra did her darndest to sell the sexy scene by saying things like this: "Our stuff was hanging in each other's faces, and we didn't care.... But seriously, I wanted to do a good job because people are paying their hard-earned money to come and be entertained and surprised and to see my fabulous naked scene. And if there are no lines outside theaters on June 19, I'm going to be so pissed." Eloquently put. However, her nude scene with Ryan was a blink-and-you-missed-it moment, and somehow Sandra managed to keep herself completely covered (even though she had to use Ryan to do it). The movie ended up being rated PG-13, and while poor Sandy was doing her best to sell it as a raunchy adult comedy, Jesse James was deciding that he preferred his women rated NC-17.
Hayden Panettiere
Plenty of guys were probably excited about the prospect of seeing the cheerleader from "Heroes" naked in 2009, especially since Hayden had previously said she'd only do a nude scene for an Oscar-worthy movie role (that seems to have worked out well for the Lifetime movie star). Anyway, it looked like she had changed her mind for the comedy "I Love You, Beth Cooper" -- until she started talking more about her supposed nude scene. Hayden said of the experience, ""I was really naked. I had these little sticky petals on my boobs, but that was about it." In other words, she wasn't really naked when she dropped her towel in the movie, and all the audience got was an eyeful of back. "I Love You, Beth Cooper" was also rated PG-13.
Megan Fox
Fox tried to become more than the hot girl from "Transformers" by getting topless for the horror movie "Jennifer's Body" -- sort of. When photos of the teased topless scene leaked on the internet, fanboys were confused to see Fox wearing flesh-colored underwear and pasties, and they ended up seeing even less of her in the movie. Fox later said that she'll never do a nude scene, although she did recently appear as a topless bird woman in "Passion Play" (using an arm to keep herself covered, of course). Unfortunately a photo taken while she was filming that scene also leaked on the internet, with Fox saying of them: "If I knew who took this picture, I would personally cause them harm - physical harm. I'm not a f**king reality TV star that's courting the paparazzi and wants my f**king picture taken all the time. I'm at my job and I'm trying to play a character and I'm trying to be serious, and this is the s**t that's happening to me. It makes me furious." Obviously she hasn't learned that her dirty mouth is not helping her movie career.

Elle Fanning, Blake Lively and Serena Williams Go For a Dip
Elle Fanning wore a Marc Jacobs resort 2012 dress and Chanel platform slingbacks -- proving her impeccable red carpet style once again -- at the 2011 Women in Film Crystal + Lucy Awards. She went no-frills with a slicked-back ballerina bun.
Blake Lively shone in a Tibi Spring 2011 dress to promote her new film "The Green Lantern" on the "Today" Show. She put her blond-again hair half-up and wore the rest wavy for a laid-back look that perfectly complemented her structured frock.
Serena Williams donned a Burberry dress with Nicholas Kirkwood heels and pink lips (stars' new favorite trend?) at the WTA Pre-Wimbledon party in London. With her dark curls hanging loosely around her face and her metallic blue eyeliner, Williams could have easily passed for a glammed-up mermaid -- although we imagine those heels would be a little hard to swim in.[stylelist.com]
Women's Underwear and lingerie tips care
Here are some tips on undergarments to help you enhance your best features as well as certain no-no’s to avoid. Keep this in mind, there is no need for special occasions or the appropriate setting to treat yourself with pretty undergarments – it really is the confidence within that makes us truly beautiful.
* Beige or nude tones that are closest to your skin tone work best under light clothing (such as a buttoned white shirt) as they become almost invisible.
* Choose undergarments with a smooth surface when wearing tight clothes, while the fancy embroidery kinds work best under darker and heavier clothing.
* On average, one in three women wear the wrong size bra (it could be you?). Although you may have found that perfect fit bra, be sure to tuck in all the right places in order avoid any unsightly bulges. Pay attention to those underarm/side areas! The BioFit bra from Victoria’s Secret offers a unique custom-made feel with a lovely uplift. Or, you can even consult a bra specialist from Zyrra to create a truly custom made bra for you.
* A sure way to ruin your polished attire is by having panty lines show through. The best bet is to wear no-lines or seamless panties matching your skin tone. Even thongs can show the lines so wear with caution.
* You can wash most undergarments in the washing machine (delicate cycle) but hand washing does prolong the life especially for delicate lingerie. I use Dr. Bronner’s organic soap to wash most of my undergarments by hand. Give it a nice soak and gentle rub. Hang dry.
* A camisole with a built-in bra top is like wearing a bra + cami together (clever combo!). They provide support, shaping and extra coverage all at once. Some camis can pass for a tank top which makes it a nice layering piece as well. Plus, it’s nice to go without a separate bra in the scorching summer. Online lingerie shop Simply Yours has a feminine collection of plus size camisole and other gorgeous undergarments for women with curves. Online shopping is the way to go for a wider variety of sizing options.
* When in doubt, go for shapewear- a faster, easier alternative to lipo or dieting. Who can say no to a slimmer, smoother appearance? There are plenty of shapewear to target different body parts. In fact, some clothes come with a shaper already built in.
* Bras & panties don’t necessarily have to match. Mix it up according to your taste!
* Always, always wash new underwear before you put them on regardless of the where you buy them, whether they come packaged or not.[workchic.com]
5 Tips for Buying Lingerie for Your Any Body Type
Valentine's Day gives many of us that extra incentive to up the sexy-style -- and heat -- meter in the undergarment department. But shopping for all things flimsy, frilly and revealing can also send us racing straight to the Hershey Kiss jar in a stress-induced panic.
Instead of filling up on chocolate (when we really want the real thing), we asked style expert Lindsay Albanese for some helpful hints to help inspire confidence and add some sweet spice to the holiday.
"When wearing lingerie, it's all about flaunting your best assets and camouflaging the areas you don't love as much," Albanese tells StyleList. "Focus on the part of your body that you like or feel is your best asset, and wear things that flaunt that area of the body."
If your bust is small: "Tiered ruffles around the bust will add volume," Albanese says. "Anything with underwire will give you a lift, and halter styles also pull the bust up and in, to create more cleavage."
If your bust is big: "Try bandeau styles," she says, "or anything with a plunging neckline or ruffle trim."
If you'd like to disguise a big booty: "Go with skimpy boy shorts," Albanese says.
If you're trying to narrow those hips and thighs: "Anything that is sheer that hits mid-thigh will work," she says. "Silk robes are also great because you can cinch them at the waist."
If you're fighting the dreaded muffin top: "Corsets take 2 to 3 inches off your waist," Albanese advises. "They are your best bet. Also babydoll camisoles, or tunic-style tanks will help slim the waistline."[stylelist.com]
Health with Pilates Exercise
If you're highly informed or even if you're one of those people that just stay home, no doubt you've heard of the Pilates Exercise. The purpose of Pilates Exercises is to stretch and to strengthen your body. That is why Pilates is so popular with most contortionists and ballet dancers.
But just because people are using Pilates for physical improvement, and weight loss, it doesn't mean that a Pilates exercise is a cardiovascular exercise. Pilates is basically a low intensity exercise. Most instructors recommend Pilates with aerobics and other forms of exercise for best effects.
The Pilates Exercise was invented by Joseph Pilates, a German National, as a self exercise. Pilates was born a fragile child, sickly and asthmatic, so he took to exercise to improve his body. When he was a bit older, he was living in France, and was arrested as an "enemy alien.' During his internment, he was assigned in the medical facilities of the prison and this is where he put Pilates into use, as rehabilitation exercises for the sick.
Since then the Pilates exercises has gained its reputation for helping improve the overall physical state of the body. Pilates exercise is a series of breathing techniques combined with stretching and a simple machine. Pilates exercises designed to improve the body's core. This includes the muscles in the abdomen, back, and buttocks. Some say it is better than yoga overall because it strengthens the body through improving posture strength and flexibility through stretching. The machines used in Pilates, are there to challenge the body, by making it stay in certain positions while moving the other parts in differing directions, thereby training the body to endure strain, thus increasing strength.
Pilate exercise also uses breathing techniques, which further increases mental focus. And probably one of the greatest focuses of Pilates is flexibility strength of the muscles. It is this ideology that made Pilates popular among dancers in the begining.
Many Pilates enthusiasts and users have testified to the effectiveness of this program. With regular classes, the bodies become well balanced and stronger. Some say that after each workout, you can instantly feel the difference it has made to the parts of the body, mainly the legs back and abs.
Aside from increased strength, weight loss is what many people aim for when they do Pilates exercises. Other benefits of Pilates include increased energy levels, higher endurance, better flexibility, great abdominal workouts, and overall physical well being. [blogobo.com]
Lady Gaga Talks Sex and Drugs
The radio host wasted no time in putting the pop singer on the spot by mentioning her past drug problems, stating, "When you talk about getting high, I mean, you were doing some hard core drugs, you were into coke and you loved Ecstasy so much." Gaga replied saying, "No, not then...I did later." The Edge of Glory singer explains that her reason for using drugs and dressing so eccentrically isn't for rebellious reasons, claiming "My past using any drugs or dressing any certain way was never a rebellion, it was never meant to be a f--k you." What made Gaga resort to using drugs in the first place? According to her, she just wanted a way to feel good lamenting, "I think that I was lonely and there was something about the drugs that made me feel like I had a friend…I didn't do it with other people. I did it alone. I did it all alone in my apartment and I wrote music and you know what, I regret every line I ever did. So to any of the little sweethearts that are listening, don't touch it, it's the devil." The good old, do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do approach. But hey, she can't help it -- she was Born This Way.
Gaga did a good job of dodging all of Stern's questions about her love life claiming that she doesn't have a boyfriend and continued to call Luc Carl her "best friend," but evidently that comes with some benefits. Mama Monster confesses, "I got laid last night...it's hard to find a boyfriend who doesn't mind a good tuck," referring to all the gender rumors that have been circulating about her. Stern even asked the star about her sexual orientation (are you really that surprised coming from him) to where she laughed, "that was later, that was college, that was brief." At least she was a good sport about everything.
Before ending the interview, Gaga gives a shout out and words of wisdom to all of her fans and Twitter followers saying, "I love you and I respect this show and I know you want to talk about sex and cocaine and all of that, but the truth is I don't want anyone doing drugs, a, and b, honestly you should wait as long as you can to have sex, because as a woman you don't even begin to enjoy it until your mid-20s. When you're 17, you don't even know how to operate what's going on down there and you shouldn't try." Parents no longer need to give their children the sex talk with Gaga on the case.[seleb-online.blogspot.com]
Is Darren Criss Ditching Glee for Broadway ?
Criss, 24, is about to begin negotiations to succeed Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe in the Broadway musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, Deadline reports.
Glee cast shake-up: Who's in? Who's out?
Criss would do a three-week stint preceded by two weeks of rehearsals on the musical, which was revived this past March and recently won a Tony award. If the deal goes through, he would have to miss an episode-and-a-half of Glee. However, series co-creator Ryan Murphy reportedly encouraged Criss to take the chance, according to Deadline.
Criss, who made his Glee debut last November, was recently promoted to series regular along with Harry Shum, Jr. He toured with the rest of the Glee cast around the United States, England and Ireland and will appear in Glee: The 3D Concert Movie.
After Criss' proposed run, How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying is still looking for Radcliffe's permanent replacement, as well as an actor to take over John Larroquette's role.[seattlepi.com]
Lindsay Lohan ordered to enroll in psychological counseling program
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner ruled that, the "Mean Girls" star has completed just 33 of the 480 community service hours, but she wanted to see proof within 21 days that the starlet has enrolled in a counseling session.
Sautner also reminded Lohan that she has one year to complete all the terms of her probation, which stems from a misdemeanor theft case involving a necklace valued at 2,500 dollars that the actress took from a Venice jewelry store early this year.
Lohan's attorney Shawn Holley assured the judge that Lohan would complete the counseling requirement at a progress-report hearing. She said the actress was making efforts to complete the psychological counseling. The starlet had been enrolled in one-on-one counseling sessions with a psychologist at UCLA, but had to end that program due to "financial issues" that apparently involved her insurance coverage through the Screen Actors Guild, she said.
Lohan, 25, was sentenced on April 22 to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service for violating her probation in the misdemeanor DUI case.
She pleaded no contest May 11 through her attorney to stealing the necklace. On May 26, Lohan was booked at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood and immediately released to serve her jail sentence through home detention. She served about one month of home detention which ended June 29.[philstar.com]

Smiling graciously, Jenner said she felt "brave" for undergoing the cosmetic procedure. "I needed a little freshening up for the wedding," she explained. "Just doing what a girl's gotta do!"
In true Kardashian fashion, Jenner's facelift will be featured on an upcoming episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. What does her daughter Khloe think of Jenner's new face?
"She looks amazing," Khloe, 27, told The New York Daily News last week. "They say you are supposed to have a lot of swelling for a week or so after, but I didn't notice."[usmagazine.com]
