The British beauty decided to keep on designing her own line for UK high street fashion chain Topshop to set herself a stimulating new challenge.

Kate Moss said:

Modelling can be a bit brain damaging. Starting my own brand was what I needed to do. I only model if there are such good jobs that you don’t want to say no to. All that dressing up makes me say, ‘What do I want to wear?’ and, ‘What do I want to do with Topshop?’ It all kind of leads into the other things.”

And then there’s her other very important project for Kate at the moment – 5 years old daughter Lila Grace.

I’m a mum. All the time. Every day I put my daughter to bed.”

Cat walk super model also told American Vogue August 2008 issue for which she put on an elegant look:

I’ve got a house and a daughter and all that, but I still like to have fun. Even in my business we still have fun. I am still acting like a 17-year-old. I definitely haven’t become middle-aged.”

Kate admits she enjoys being able to lead a luxurious life, but isn’t motivated by fame and fortune:

I like making money. But I don’t call people up every day to see how much I’ve made. As long as I have what I need at the time. I mean, I can buy the house that I want.”

This woman is one of my favorite celebrities for sure. Sophistication, grace, elegance, style – she has all that even wearing a potato sack.

Lindsay Lohan attends a party celebrating Sephora’s 10 year anniversary bash Of Gorgeous Party at the Angel Orensanz Foundation on Thursday in New York City. Lindsay’s gal pal Samantha Ronson took over the turntables at this event. Lindsay’s mom Dina and lil bro Michael also attended the event.

Tomorrow, Lindsay and Samantha will be continuing their party streak together at VH1’s Save the Music benefit. Right after Lindsay will get back to Labor Pains, a new movie she is working on.

Daisy Lowe, who is Samantha’s brother’s girlfriend, said: “Their relationship is totally genuine. And they’re just so sweet together.” The two have been inseparable for the last five months. Let’s not be homophobic and take them the way they are. Long may it last!

Also, Lohan’s lawyer says the star is on track in complying with her sentence after pleading guilty last year to drunk driving. Blair Berk gave an update on how the actress is complying with her sentence for misdemeanour DUI and cocaine charges. Attorney told the judge that the Mean Girls star is “completely on track with everything”.

Lindsay was ordered to complete an 18-month alcohol education program, pay hundreds of dollars in fines and complete a three-day county coroner program.

So far starlet spent 84 minutes in jail, completed community service, and visited a morgue and an emergency room.

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins teaser - trailer was unleashed to the Web sometime Wednesday afternoon, ahead of its bow on the big screen in front of The Dark Knight.

“This is not the future my mother warned me about,” says Christian Bale (American Psycho) as Connor, and we get a handful of apocalyptic shots of the Earth and a brief, PG-13-friendly explosion. McG (Charlie’s Angels) will direct the upcoming Terminator Salvation, which is set in postwar 2018 and follows Connor as he leads the human resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators.

The trailer goes for a radio-static effect, and we get a human skull being smashed. But before you think you’ve seen that before, it’s a human foot that’s turning bone to dust this time around,” writes LA Times. Watch the hot trailer by clicking below.

Here are some quotes from Visual Effects Supervisor Charles Gibson on his role in the making of the film:

Prior to Terminator Salvation, I worked on all three Pirates movies. Those worlds and characters were from a different time and place and had to be completely fabricated. This film plays in an altered but plausible version of our world. We’re primarily concerned with bringing the Terminator elements home, to make you believe this reality could be just around the corner. It’s a very different sort of challenge.

McG’s take is to weave science fiction and horror elements into a state-of-the-art action film: The camera always moves, the imagery is raw and kinetic, the pace is insane. The creative challenge for me will be to bury the effects into the photography but to still protect our big visual moments.

Before Terminator 2: Judgment Day, visual effects films were frequently driven by technology — you worked with what you had. With The Abyss and especially with Terminator 2: Judgment Day, James Cameron showed us that concept rules: When the director has a compelling new vision, the technology will follow. Cameron opened that gate for other filmmakers who in turn have pushed the visual effects industry in new directions.

We’ve been waiting to see this world for years — it’s only been glimpsed and hinted at in the previous Terminator movies. We’re able to revisit the elements that have been established, but we’re going to be adding a whole lot more.”

Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins, starring Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, Moon Bloodgood, Common, Jadagrace and Helena Bonham Carter, opens in theaters on May 22, 2009.

The deal will encompass tours, recordings, sponsorship, and merchandise throughout the world. The whole package is worth between $70 million and $100 million.

Shakira was the first celebrity to note the rescue of 15 captives who were held by revolutionaries Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) in her native Colombia, releasing a statement on the day Betancourt was freed:

It’s a historic day for all of us, for this country that has suffered a lot. What a proud day to be Colombian!”

On Wednesday, July 16, Shakira met the former Colombian presidential candidate at the Hotel Meurice in Paris. The two went sightseeing accompanied by Ingrid’s son.

Ready to tie the knot? Waiting for the Big Day? Well, wedding bells sound much better when you’re wearing a fantastic, and what is more important, a fashionable wedding dress. Here are a few key looks from designers.

According to designers, Fall 2008 wedding dress trends are leaning towards Parisian-inspired looks, most notably the classic black wedding dress that is becoming a popular choice in Europe. As for the States, there are also hints of Marie Antoinette-inspired gowns, larger-than-life ruffles, and blue and metallic creations that offer a fresh take on the classic white wedding.

All-black wedding dress

This is the perfect choice wedding dress style for the bride who wants to try something different. So far, it’s really popular in Europe and it’s possible American brides might love the idea too. One of the designers to stick to black wedding dresses is Max Chaoul.

Black sashes and belts

Instead of traditional all-white wedding gown, Fall 2008 collections bring together black sashes and belts around the waist. Such fashion designers like Alfred Angelo add this modern and sophisticated touch to the traditional dress, even if only on the runway.

Blue and silver metallic dresses

Reem Acra’s collection for Fall 2008 features a whole lineup of pastel-blue colored dresses accented with silver and metallic threads. The fairytale-like gowns are the epitome of luxury with their rich satin, lace, and chiffon accents and mermaid-style cuts.

Toga-style dresses

The toga dress is a top trend for women’s dresses in 2008, and it’s also showing up in the bridal department. The toga dress is designed with a unique, flowing cut that is less fitted around the waist and hips. The Grecian-inspired look is a romantic touch for any wedding, and designers such as Wtoo Brides and Demetrios featured this goddess look in the Fall 2008 wedding gown collections.

Crystal brocades

Brocade embellishments are always a popular choice for wedding dresses, and the Fall 2008 collections featured many dresses with crystal and silver embellishments on the simple white dress. Piccione’s collection made the most of this trend with beautiful bustier and train detailing.

Jewel toned wedding dresses

Jewel tones are back for Fall 2008 in vibrant red, green, and even yellow colors. Jewel toned wedding dresses offer a luxurious touch to any wedding, and are a bold, modern twist on the traditional white lace or chiffon gowns.

So it’s obvious there are plenty of ways to update your Fall 2008 wedding with the latest styles. Add a new touch of Parisian, Greek, or modern romance to your outfit and become the most stylish bride of the year.

Ah! Summer is the time to be on the beach glimpsing at the celebs in their designer bikinis.
Claire Danes slips into a teeny-tiny red bikini to catch some sun outside Hotel Regina Isabella. She was there with her British boyfriend Hugh Dancy.

The couple arrived to Ischia, an Italian island in the bay of Naples, for the Ischia Global Film and Music Festival.

Sporting a strapless red tiny bikini, Miss Danes enjoyed the beautiful weather and at one point even jumped in the hotel’s luxurious pool to cool off.

Just a week ago Claire Danes and boyfriend Hugh Dancy attended the 70th Anniversary of the Gucci Via Condotti store and Gucci 2009 Resort Collection, held at the Villa Aurelia in Rome, Italy on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old Romeo and Juliet actress, who just starred in Gucci’s latest jewelry campaign, sat front and center at the event. Claire said:

Gucci is just the definition of glamour and luxury and it’s incredibly feminine and sexy and powerful”

When not taking a dip in the pool, Hugh was seen reading Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army by Jeremy Scahill. The book details the rise of Blackwater USA, a private military company, and the growth of security contracting in Iraq and the War on Terror.

Cristiano Ronaldo has hit America and he is causing quite a stir. He is the world’s best football player right now, and he’s got breathtaking looks.

The Manchester United striker is currently in LA on an undisclosed business trip. When asked by Hollyscoop.com reporter if he’s ready to move to LA immediately, the 23 years old sports super star replied:

I have time, I have time, I prefer to play in Europe…it’s better in the moment, but the future no one knows.”

When asked if Galaxy would ever be an option for him, my sweetheart Ronaldo said:

Yes, you know Beckham plays there and I spoke with him a few times and he says its great to play here maybe in the future you never know…Maybe one day, I will play here maybe you never know.”

He arrived on crutches to a trendy Hollywood hotspot Villa in the early hours of Wednesday morning where celebrities and socialites like Paris Hilton were surrounding him.

According to dirty rumors Paris was snubbed by footy hottie which really pissed her off. Well, that just means the guy’s got taste in women. Wink. Isn’t Paris supposed to be dating Benji Madden?

But the truth is Cristiano didn’t care for any of the girls last night. He just sat in the corner of the bar with four other male friends and sipped vodka soda. Well, there was one female accompanying him to the dinner earlier on. But she wasn’t his girlfriend Nereida.

According to reports, Portuguese star is a single man after splitting from model Nereida Gallardo. The new glamorous girl is supposedly assisting him in LA, taking care of his leg.

In regards to all the ladies drooling over him Ronaldo says:

Maybe they love me because I play good football.”

Riiight! Nope, it’s the combination of looks and skills. It is hard to decide by which I am more thrilled.

Indeed, no one is certain of his future as there are talks that he might make a move from Manchester Untied to Real Madrid, the same team David Beckham played for before he moved to the States’s Galaxy.

Also, Cristiano Ronaldo was nominated for “Best Male International Athlete”, to which he reacted with excitement:

I feel good, when you work all season, all year to be one of the best players to be nominated…. I feel very good, I feel very proud it’s a good moment for me. I want to keep going like that. I want to improve every season.”

The Dark Knight is a long awaited and a pretty sad premier. The follow-up to 2005’s hit Batman Begins, The Dark Knight is said to prove to be one of 2008’s highest grossing summer blockbusters. The Dark Knight is on starting July 18.

Christian Bale returns to take on the Joker and Two-Face, two of the comic’s most brutal and unpredictable villains. The film is worth watching because of several reasons and one of them is that it’s the last film Heath Ledger (The Joker) starred in before he prematurely died in January this year.

Sadly, Heath is not with us any longer. But he will asways remain in our hearts.

Among other July 18th big movie premieres there are:

Mamma Mia! is a stage musical based comedy with a really all-star cast. Meryl Streep is the mama, and Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth or Stellan Skarsgard might be the daddies in this movie about a bride’s search for her real dad. The film is set to ABBA music. But that’s not the main reason I wanna see it. The real worthwhile reason is Maryl Streep’s acrobatic feats. She’s 59, I wish I’ll be able to do such things when I’m 59.

The film seems like fun. At least the play has always been a success.

Space Chimps is a talking-monkey comedy about Ham III who comes from a proud lineage of chimp astronauts, and who is the prime candidate for a special mission for an opportunity-seeking Senator. His mission involves taking down an evil overlord of a far-away planet.

The comedy features the voices of Patrick Warburton, Cheryl Hines, Stanley Tucci and Kristen Chenoweth.

Mario Lopez wants to get back together with Karina Smirnoff. Well, at least on the dance floor. He sees her first of all as a dance partner, not ex-girlfriend.

I love dancing and she’s the best partner and the best teacher, and I’d be honored if she would dance with me.”

Does that mean Karina will forgive him his cheating and forget about her recent claims? Or is it simply being professional and not letting personal feelings rise before the DWTS.

PEOPLE’s 34-year-old Hottest Bachelor does admit that his steamy spread in the magazine has brought him no shortage of female admirers:

People come up to me and ask me to sign it a lot. [They say] ‘What were you thinking?’ And ‘how did it feel?’ And ‘you’re naked!’ And ‘oh my gosh!’ And ‘my mother and my grandmother, they put it up in their room.’ And it’s funny. I didn’t think it was going to cause such a big stir.

“I’m not looking for Miss Right right now. I’m just sort of working on becoming Mr. Right. Make sure it happens. It’s going to happen,” he said.

Does that mean he’s dating anyone at the moment?

No, unfortunately I haven’t had a chance. I’ve just been working. I’m just dating my Broadway show and my book.”

Never far from the dance floor – Lopez is currently starring in A Chorus Line.

Kanye West, N.E.R.D and Wyclef Jean are set to perform in support of Barack Obama at the forthcoming Democratic National Convention.

Some say that politics are getting flashier. Well, I’d say the whole world got a little flashier… The event will take place in Denver on August, 25 and will be joined by a string of Hollywood stars who will also show up to support the Democratic presidential candidate.

The A – list celebrities include Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johansson, Forest Whitaker, Ed Norton and Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Actors are all slated to come out to back Obama over the four-day event which will also see a party for Bono’s ONE campaign, according to the Washington Post.
