Demi Moore's investment on Appearance

hot and sexy demi moore, hot demi moore in bikini, hot demi moore wallpapers and photos, hot demi moore boobs/breastsHas about 48 years and now has reached more than 25!And yet, as you look about 50 years so you need a little help and surgeon.

Every time I had the opportunity, wanted to clarify that Demi has never resorted to plastic surgery. There are sources that say something else.

It seems that after he crossed the threshold of 40 years, Moore felt he started to show signs of aging. And so a youngster beside her husband, she did not look at the money and has made several interventions.

Demi Moore was paid no more and no less than $ 25,000 for liposuction, silicone and 31.000 to 15.000 for facial rejuvenation. Obsessed by the skin of the left knee, the star has decided to go ahead and remove the excess so ugly.

Sources say that Demi would go every week and a practice specializing in stretch procedure.

Farah Khan on Deepika Padukone

hot and sexy deepika padukone, hot deepika padukone in bikini, hot deepika padukone wallpapers and photos, hot deepika padukone boobs/breastsFilmmaker Farah Khan has had to issue an apology to actress Deepika Padukone over a comment she made about her acting skills. Farah made amends after she rated Deepika poorly during a chat with filmmaker Karan Johar on the TV show Koffee with Karan.

"I am sorry I made a mistake," Farah said about Deepika. Asked by Karan to rate some popular actresses in order of talent, Farah had ranked Deepika at the bottom.

When reminded by Karan that Deepika debuted in her film, she said: "But then I saw (her in) some other movies too." Sure Deepika would not have taken kindly to that remark. So Farah was quick to defend herself.

"Deepika has become a very good actress. I had seen her in the film Bachna Ae Haseeno after Om Shanti Om, in which she was really not very good. But she showed a lot of improvement in Karthik Calling Karthik," Farah said.

David Hasselhoff Hot Gossips

hot and sexy david hasselhoff, hot david hasselhoff wallpapers and photosDavid Hasselhoff is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "The Most Watched TV Star in the World.” You probably remember him as the hunky lifeguard in the 90’s TV series Baywatch. Before he rode the jet ski, he starred in Knight Rider – the 1980’s U.S. science-fiction series. In between those two television programs he launched a successful German-language pop career.

But you don’t become the most watched TV star in the world on only two programs. Hasselhoff also played Dr. William "Snapper" Foster, Jr. on U.S. soap opera The Young and the Restless in the late 70’s and 80’s.

In the 2000’s he judged contestants on America’s Got Talent and then was judged as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars.

He's publicly battled alcohol and in 2007 a home video surfaced of an intoxicated Hasselhoff eating a cheeseburger on the floor.

His daughter, Taylor Ann was filming the video and repeatedly says to her famous father, "Tell me you are going to stop." After the incident Hasselhoff admitted that he had suffered a “brief relapse... . I have seen the tape. I have learned from it and I am back on my game.”

Now his two daughters, Taylor-Ann and Hayley, are taking part in his latest foray into television: a reality show called "The Hasselhoffs."

The series looks at Hasselhoff’s life in the entertainment industry and his work to bring his daughters’ band “Bella Vida” into the spotlight.

It became clear, Dasha has been dating with a wealthy Armenian boy for more than a year, but his name is not disclosed.

According to rumors, Armenian macho is too strict towards the Playboy star and makes scenes of jealousy. The star does not complain about his Armenian boyfriend and is quite modest at his presence.

The couple is often seen in entertainment places in Kiev.

Dannii Minouge and her Cosmetics

Dannii Minogue only has six items in her make-up bag.

The Australian beauty - who is currently working as a judge and mentor on UK TV talent show 'The X Factor' - says she has cut back on her beauty regime since becoming a mother to son Ethan in July as she doesn't have enough time to worry about her appearance.

Dannii - who also has her own clothing label, Project D - told Britain's Grazia magazine: "Two years ago I had all the time in the world to play around with looks and experiment. I had too much time really. Having a baby, running a business and doing 'X Factor', I needed to simplify my life - and my style. I cut my hair because I don't have time for all those extensions.

"I cut my make-up bag by about 90 per cent. I carry a bag with six things in it, concealer - which is essential for covering up those sleepless nights - and foundation with some illuminating light in it, lipstick, an eyebrow brush, mascara and powder. That's it."

Although she only has six items in her make-up bag, Dannii says she enjoys getting dressed up when appears on 'The X Factor' because she's normally so unglamorous.
She said: "On stage it's great because I get to look grown-up and glamorous. I do feel very grown-up, which I should because I am 39. Off stage it's a very different story. I spend exactly half my life in trackies and T-shirts, covered in baby goo, but I am careful not to get photographed in my 'Mummy Dannii' look as it's so not glamorous. I've also knocked little mini-skirts on the head for the same reasons."

Daniel Radcliffe the 'Harry Potter'

hot and sexy daniel radcliffe, hot daniel radcliffe wallpapers and photosActor Daniel Radcliffe believes people will always think of him as Harry Potter and has no qualms if his fans always visualise him as the bespectacled hero. The British star, who played the wizard kid in eight movies feels he will never be able to separate himself from the magical character,Contactmusic reported.
"I'm sure some people will see me forever as Harry Potter and I'm fine with that," said the 21-year-old actor.

However, Radcliffe is hoping to change people's perception by choosing diverse roles, such as the big screen adaptation of 'The Woman in Black' which he is currently filming.

"There will be others that are willing to see me in different roles. And hopefully, if I keep choosing diverse and challenging stuff, people will let that image go," said the actor.

Despite his 10 years in the movie business the actor doesn't think himself as a great actor as he still has a lot of work to do. "Certainly nobody in the cast thinks they are 'there' yet in terms of acting. We all know we've got a lot to learn and a long way to go," he added.

Claire Danes in 'Showtime Series'

hot and sexy claire danes, hot claire danes in bikini, hot claire danes wallpapers and photos, hot claire danes boobs/breastsClaire Danes, who recently won an Emmy for HBO's "Temple Grandin," has been signed to star in a new Showtime drama, "Homeland," which will begin production in January.

The series revolves around an American soldier taken prisoner during the invasion of Iraq in 2003. After being left for dead, the soldier returns to the U.S. after spending many years in captivity. Danes will play Carrie Anderson, an ambitious CIA officer battling her own psychological demons who becomes convinced that something is not right and that the returning soldier might be connected to an Al Qaeda plot to be carried out on American soil.

The role of the soldier will be cast shortly, Showtime executives said.

The project, which is loosely based on the Israeli TV series "Prisoners of War," is the first to be ordered by Showtime President of Entertainment David Nevins, who assumed his post in August. One of the executive producers of the pilot is Howard Gordon ("24").

"Homeland" marks a return to series television for Danes, who first came to prominence in the 1994 ABC series "My So-Called Life."

Christina Milian's Divorce Deal

hot and sexy christina milian, hot christina milian wallpapers and photos, hot christina milian in bikini, hot christina milian boobs/breastsChristina Milian and music super-producer The-Dream have reportedly finally reached a divorce settlement -- one that will award the singer a one-time sum of $4 million.

Milian will get the windfall in addition to $5,000 a month in child support for her and The-Dream's daughter, Violet, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

In exchange for the payment and continued support, Milian is also said to have signed a strict non-disclosure agreement that forbids her to divulge details of their relationship.

The pair eloped in 2009 to Las Vegas, only to announce in July 2010 that they'd split a few months after their wedding. While The-Dream -- real name Terius Nash -- said their efforts as a couple were "unsuccessful," photos of the producer frolicking on a beach with his assistant suggested infidelity.

If the NDA is in place, we'll probably never know. And Milian can sing her own tune all the way to the bank.

TONIGHT'S TRIPLE CHORD: KLEA BLACKHURST, TERESE GENECCO, AND BARRY LEVITT

Well, here we are at the end of November, the last day to be exact! At this point, most of us have stuffed ourselves on a Thanksgiving feast and are hurling towards the holiday season and the end of the month. I don't know about you, but November was a VERY busy month for me. If you've been reading my blogs, you know. Some of the highlights of the month include Donna McKechnie at The Laurie Beechman (a great way to start any month!), a class with Judith Light, a web marketing seminar in Rockland where I actually did learn a few new things, Jane Scheckter's show at The Metropolitan Room, a VIEWPOINTS class at PRIMARY STAGES, an audition that same day for their playwrighting department (I got 4 readings as a result of that audition...my first being tomorrow!), The Sheet Music Society where I got to see Quinn Lemley, Pamela Luss, Eric Comstock and Barbara Fasano ALL in the same show! Seeing Liza Minnelli again at the top of her game along with Billy Stritch. Thanksgiving in Buffalo with Danny's family! And I am ending the month with Klea Blackhurst guesting with Terese Genneco and her little Big Band conducted by Barry Levitt.
In the film New York, New York, Jimmy Doyle,played by Robert DeNiro, refers to those perfect moments in life where everything comes together as triple chords. That's why I'm referring to tonight as a triple chord. Three ARTISTS (joined by others) to create magic tonight at The Iridium. I am thrilled that we are going to see Terese this evening at The Iridium. When I found out her guest was Klea Blackhurst, that was an added bonus!

KLEA BLACKHURST has been on the scene several years now and I am a HUGE fan of hers! If you want to read more about Klea, please visit her website at http://www.kleablackhurst.com


Klea Blackhurst is best known for her acclaimed tribute to Ethel Merman, Everything the Traffic Will Allow. Among many accolades, this production earned her the inaugural Special Achievement Award from "Time Out New York" magazine. The recording of Everything the Traffic Will Allow was named one of the top ten show albums of 2002 by Talkin' Broadway.com. Klea next turned her passion for musical-theatre history toward the Broadway career of composer Vernon Duke and debuted Autumn in New York: Vernon Duke's Broadway at New York's Café Carlyle which subsequently played a sold-out engagement at Joe's Pub at The Public Theater. In the Fall of 2007 Klea teamed with Billy Stritch to create Dreaming of a Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael which they debuted at Manhattan's Metropolitan Room. This performance received a Backstage Bistro Award. The recording of Dreaming of a Song: The Music of Hoagy Carmichael will be released in June 2008. Klea's many concert appearances include the recent London Palladium presentation of "Jerry Herman's Broadway." She made her Carnegie Hall debut starring with Michael Feinstein in an evening devoted to the work of composer, Jule Styne. In 2002, Klea made her London debut (stage, radio and television) at Royal Albert Hall. As part of the BBC Proms, she sang the role of Ado Annie in a special concert version of Oklahoma! celebrating composer Richard Rodgers centenary. She returned to London the following spring to debut Everything the Traffic Will Allow at the Greenwich Theatre.

TERESE GENNECO! I have been in love with Terese ever since I saw her phenomenal tribute to Francis Faye. ScoBar Entertainment, Terese's co-producer, has agreed to extend her into 2011. Tonight will be the 21st performance of her run at The Iridium since her first show there in March of 2009...thus the title of "the longest running nightclub act on Broadway!" You can also take Terese home with you!
http://www.bugoutmusic.com/?section=home

"There's a monthly party going on in New York and you're all invited! Don't be crying in your beer if you miss your chance to see Terese Genecco at Iridium while the ticket is still reasonably priced and before she moves on to the world's great halls! The irrepressible Genecco - an old-school, world class entertainer the likes of which many decry that they don't make anymore - bounds onto the stage with her eight piece band... this dynamo - like many of the greats before her - is short in stature but gigantic in talent and charisma! Someone should be writing a show for this woman. If the powers that be think there are no new big stars to be found, they aren't looking hard enough. My suggestion? Get yourself down to the Iridium on the last Tuesday of the month. Pronto. This kind of comet doesn't pass our way nearly often enough!" ~ EDGE New York


BARRY LEVITT!
What can I say about Barry? I truly do have a history with Barry. I first met Barry when he was directing and producing LYRICS AND LYRICISTS at the 92nd Street Y. I contacted him when I found out he was doing a tribute to Jule Styne. We met and he hired me! What an honor to share the stage with Rex Reed, Karen Saunders (who became a good friend), Lorna Dallas, and others. It was a hit and Barry and I have remained friends. He booked a show with me and Marilyn Michaels several years later. I suggested Barry as president of MAC. Don't know if he will ever forgive me for that one! We even served on the board together. Barry spoke eloquently about my work on one of my demo tapes. When Dana Lorge and I started WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT THE IGUANA, we were thrilled when Barry came on board. He was/is a major asset to that evening and, in all honesty, mine and Dana's MAC Awards should be shared with Barry (and Saadi Zain). He continues to play in what is now Dana Lorge's WEDNESDAY NIGHT AT THE IGUANA! tomorrow night, they are celebrating Hanukah at the Iguana-kah.Check them out! I was thrilled that Barry called me to go to Florida in March in a tribute to Jerry Herman! Looking forward very much to this. Thank you, Barry, for ALL that you have done for me on SO MANY LEVELS! Here he is along with the joyous Jeff Carney accompanying Maria Ottavia at The Iguana.
Barry Levitt will be playing for Vickie Sander (December 8, 7pm)as part of Urban Stages' second annual Holiday Cabaret Nights series, with proceeds going to help support the Urban Stages Outreach Program which brings theatre to children and families through over 200 programs to over 92 libraries in over 44 Council Districts throughout the five boroughs. For more information, visit www.urbanstages.org.

If you would like to see these three amazing artists at work, please join me tonight for the 8PM show at The Iridium.

I have seen Richard's show many times! OK I am a big fan. This summer Richard brought the show to Provincetown. How perfect. My friends and I could not have enjoyed it more. Congratulations Richard.
Phyllis B. Frank, http://www.gaypriderockland.org



t was my first time seeing Richard Skipper perform as Carol Channing and it was wonderful. I think he does important work reminding us of the talents and value of stars like Carol Channing who we don't see as often in the public eye as we once did. As Carol, Richard was charming and amusing. I especially liked the cell phone bit. Thanks, Richard. You made the evening a delight.
Deardra Shuler, NY



I can not think of the last time I smiled so much. Richard held us in his hands and in his heart, while teaching and entertaining us the old fashioned way. Carol Channing is so blessed to have this artist pay tribute to her incredible life with such care and integrity. This is a show that should be seen by the world. So many life lessons and good energy to be shared. Thank you, dear Richard. Love, Meg Flather, NYC

Richard's class, wit and resourcefulness shines through, whether as "Carol" on stage at St. Luke's or as himself when he interviewed the "real, Carol at Barnes & Nobel last week. Always a joy to encounter Richard.

Ronald Isley, Anita Baker Honored At Soul Train Awards

Only at the Soul Train Awards could you have a tribute to R&B icons such as Anita Baker and Ronald Isley alongside a segment in which rap legend Doug E. Fresh attempts to teach CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer how to do the Dougie.

It was that kind of night at the 2010 Soul Train Awards, as rookies, veterans and legends came together in Atlanta for the second annual event — which was taped November 10 and aired this past Sunday on BET. The show, hosted once again by Terrence Howard and Taraji P. Henson, featured a night of performances from some of the biggest names in soul and R&B.

Host Howard told MTV News that the show is meant to be an extension of the long-running and legendary ’70s TV series that brought soul, disco, R&B and rap stars into viewers’ living rooms. “It reminds me of the advancement black people have made over the years because ‘Soul Train’ really was the beginning of that Black Power movement when we could actually see ourselves — and to have an awards show based upon that ‘Soul Train’ — it’s headed somewhere,” Howard said. “We have a black president now. The country seems to be more tolerant towards the diversity inside of it so it seems like the train is moving well down the tracks.”

The awards show marked the 40th anniversary of classic music showcase hosted by Don Cornelius, and celebrated the careers of Baker and Isley, while handing out trophies to such contemporary stars as B.o.B (Song of the Year for “Nothing on You”), Melanie Fiona (Best New Artist), Eminem and Rihanna (Best Hip-Hop Song of the Year for “Love the Way You Lie”), Usher (Album of the Year for Raymond vs. Raymond) and Alicia Keys (Record of the Year for “Unthinkable [I'm Ready]” and Best Female R&B Soul Artist).

Anita Baker Biography

Anita Baker (born January 26, 1958) is an American R&B and soul singer-songwriter. To date, Baker has won eight Grammy Awards, and has four platinum albums and two gold albums to her credit.

Music career
The Songstress (1983)

Baker released her debut album, The Songstress, in 1983. Produced by the late Patrick Moten and Otis Smith, the album was released on a small label, Beverly Glen Records. The album helped launch Baker's career as it found minor success on the R&B chart. Baker herself co-wrote the album's opening track, "Angel".

Rapture (1985-1986)

In 1985, Baker signed a contract with Elektra Records, a division of Warner Music Group. She released her second album, Rapture, in 1986. Produced by her friend Michael J. Powell (from the Detroit soul band Chapter 8), Baker wrote several tracks for the album herself including "Been So Long" and "Watch Your Step", and co-wrote the single "Sweet Love" which became her first mainstream hit; it peaked at number eight on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, number two on the U.S. Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and number thirteen in the United Kingdom. "Caught Up in the Rapture", "No One in the World", and "Same Ole Love" also became major R&B and adult contemporary chart hits during 1986 and 1987. Rapture ultimately went on to sell eight million copies worldwide and earned Baker two Grammy Awards in 1987: Best R&B Vocal Performance, Female for the album and Best Rhythm & Blues Song for "Sweet Love". Baker's world tour for her Rapture album, entitled A Night of Rapture, was filmed and released on home video (and DVD in 2007).

In 1987, Baker collaborated with The Winans on the single "Ain't No Need to Worry", which led Baker to her third Grammy Award the following year, in the Best Soul Gospel Performance by a Duo or Group, Choir or Chorus category.
Giving You the Best That I Got (1988)

Baker's third album, Giving You the Best That I Got, was released in October 1988. She again worked with Powell, and the album became a critical and commercial success, reaching number one on the Billboard 200 chart and selling five million copies worldwide (including three million in the U.S. alone). It featured such hits as "Just Because" and the title track, which became Baker's biggest pop hit, reaching number three on the Billboard Hot 100 while topping both the R&B and adult contemporary charts.

Compositions (1990)

Baker returned to the studio in 1990 for her fourth album (her third for Elektra), entitled Compositions. Once again produced by Powell, this time Baker became more involved in the songwriting and production process and began to experiment with jazz influences. Baker wrote or co-wrote seven of the nine songs on the album, including the hits "Talk to Me", "Fairy Tales", "No One to Blame", and "Whatever It Takes" (written with Gerald Levert). The album was mostly cut "live", in that the rhythm section was playing as Baker sang. The album included musicians Greg Phillinganes, Nathan East, Paulinho da Costa, Vernon Fails, Ricky Lawson, and Stephen Ferrone.

Though the three singles from Compositions all failed to reach the top forty of the Billboard Hot 100 ("Talk to Me" came closest at number forty-four), they still became top twenty hits on the R&B chart and were also moderate adult contemporary hits. Compositions peaked at number five on the Billboard 200, number three on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, and number four on the Billboard Top Contemporary Jazz Albums, and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The album also earned Baker her seventh Grammy Award.

Following Compositions, Elektra Records secured the rights to Baker's debut album The Songstress from 1983, and re-released it with a new cover artwork in 1991.

After almost five years of touring, performing, and recording non-stop, Baker took a break, only entering the studio to record the jazz standard "Witchcraft" with Frank Sinatra for his 1993 Duets album.

Rhythm of Love (1994)

Baker's fifth album, Rhythm of Love, was issued in September 1994. After ending her successful partnership with Powell, Baker produced most of the album herself along with many famous producers such as George Duke, Arif Mardin, Barry J. Eastmond, and Tommy LiPuma. Rhythm of Love was mainly recorded at Baker's home due to her pregnancy at the time, and she wrote five of the album's twelve songs. The album was another commercial success, peaking at number three on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, and eventually being certified double platinum by the RIAA. The first single, "Body and Soul", became Baker's first U.S. top forty hit in over five years. Baker won the award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for the single "I Apologize" at the 1996 Grammy Awards, her fifth Grammy Award in this category and her eighth overall.

Recent career

In June 2002, Rhino Records released The Best of Anita Baker (known as Sweet Love: The Very Best of Anita Baker in the UK, with a slightly different track listing), a compilation of Baker's material from 1983–2002.

Two years later, in March 2004, Blue Note Records announced that they had signed Baker to an exclusive recording contract that would result in at least two albums. Bruce Lundvall, president and CEO of EMI Jazz & Classics, signed her after she approached him to record for Blue Note. At the same time Rhino Records released A Night of Rapture: Live, a compilation that contained nine live tracks and three multimedia videos recorded in the late 1980s.

In September 2004, a decade after her last studio album, Baker released a new album, entitled My Everything. Co-produced by Barry J. Eastmond and Baker herself, she wrote or co-wrote nine of this album's ten tracks, including a duet with Babyface, "Like You Used to Do". Though she had been out of the limelight for some considerable time, the album was a success and debuted at number four on the Billboard 200 and number one on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums. The album was certified gold by the RIAA, denoting sales in excess of 500,000 units in the U.S.

In October 2005, Baker released her first Christmas album, Christmas Fantasy. Again produced by Baker and Eastmond, the album mixed traditional Christmas carols ("God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen"), standards ("I'll Be Home for Christmas"), re-imagined classics ("Frosty's Rag"), Broadway show tunes ("My Favorite Things"), and three new songs by Baker and Eastmond ("Moonlight Sleighride", "Family of Man", and "Christmas Fantasy"). She received a Grammy Award nomination in 2007 for Best Traditional R&B Vocal Performance for the song "Christmas Time Is Here".

In 2007, Baker appeared on Dave Koz's album At the Movies. She sang "Somewhere" from the Broadway musical West Side Story.

Baker embarked on a concert tour in 2008, entitled An Evening with Anita Baker. Her performance at DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, Michigan, on July 12, 2008, was recorded and Baker announced plans to release a new DVD and/or CD live album in early 2009.

On September 19, 2008, BusyBoy Productions filmed her entire An Evening with Anita Baker concert at Mystic Lake Casino Hotel in Prior Lake, Minnesota, for Baker's up-and-coming DVD and B-roll footage for promotional purposes.

On April 25, 2010, Baker performed at the New Orleans Annual Jazz Fest 2010 at the Congo Square Stage.

On June 10, 2010, Baker sang the National Anthem at Game 4 of the NBA Finals in TD Garden. Her performance was criticized by some viewers.

Baker will be releasing a new album in the beginning of 2011 entitled "21st Century Love", her seventh studio album, which will be released on Blue Note Records/EMI.
