Bikini-Clad Celebs Ring in the New Year [Photos]

When the temperature takes a dip, celebs know to toss all their designer duds into Louis Vuitton duffel bags and head to some of the most exclusive tropical locales in the world. Luckily for us, the paparazzi are never far behind and we get to creep all over their vacations via the internet. Don’t even begin to lay out for me how this is all morally wrong and stars have a right to privacy, especially around the holidays, blah blah blah.

I’d like to care, but I don’t. It just so happens that I have resolutions to keep and seeing these (mostly) tanned and toned glamazons will motivate me to hit the gym like none other.  So if you, like myself, need 16 reasons to stay on the elliptical just a liiiittle longer, just take a peek below.

10 Celebs and The Secrets Behind Their Scents

Attention, ladies. I’ve got big news.

Reese Witherspoon is launching her own fragrance.

Okay. So I guess the news wasn’t really that big of a deal after all. I mean, what celebrity doesn’t have a fragrance these days? No, really, what celebrity doesn’t? Reese Witherspoon is actually the 465th celebrity to ever do this. That’s a lot of celebrities and definitely a lot of scents, which has gotten me thinking: How exactly do they create these scents? What are the ingredients? They must be relevant to the celebs themselves, right? You know, to set them apart. Well, if that’s the case I’ve got a few ideas on what must be in each of them.


What would be in your signature scent?

Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Reese Witherspoon is Comfy and Cozy

[Welcome to Celebrity Chic on the Cheap, where our style guru takes a celebrity look and breaks it down for you, our poor college fashionista. What does that mean? It means that while the celebrities (Jessica Szohr, anyone?) are spending $5,000 on an ensemble, you don’t have to.]

Reese Witherspoon has been flying under the radar for awhile. I hate to think her time has passed, but lately, I haven’t been super compelled to see any of her projects (and apparently I’m not alone, if the performance of her latest flick “How Do You Know” is any indication…) It’s a bummer, but there will always be a place in my heart for the woman who so brilliantly brought Elle Woods to life.

And apparently the paparazzi is equally as enamored of her, because lately (read: since her engagement), we’ve been inundated with tons of Reese photos: “Reese walks with her fiance!” “Reese goes shopping!” “Reese drinks a latte…while Jake Gyllenhaal cries himself to sleep!”

It was only recently that I’ve started to notice her great sense of style. Reese has a grounded, comfortable, girl-next-door aesthetic. While not flashy, it’s totally relatable and always looks very effortlessly put together. And it can be done at a fraction of the cost. Read More »


6 Reasons for the Jake and Taylor Split

As we have all heard by now Jake Gyllenhaal and Taylor Swift have officially parted ways. (Editor’s Note: FINALLY!) And we all know what that means: in about 6 months we will hear all about it on Tay Tay’s new CD. But until then, we only know what limited information Swyllenhaal’s publicists will share:

“Jake broke up with Taylor.”
“He didn’t like the publicity.”
Blah blah blah.

We get it, it’s not her it’s you. You will always be friends. The split was amicable. Whatever, let’s be real, K? Break ups happen for a reason. So, what could possibly have driven Jakey poo away from T. Swift?

Well I think I know…

Reason # 1: Singing in the shower
We all do it, usually belting out some Christina circa 1997 (Genie in a Bottle, anyone?) But for Taylor…I mean we’ve all heard those live performances; maybe Jake just couldn’t take it. It takes a strong man to hear someone botch “Remember December” over and over again. Maybe Jake just wasn’t strong enough?

Reason # 2: He wanted to be Taylor’s next hit song
Maybe it’s true and he really does love her…or maybe he only dated her so he could break up with her and have a fierce song written about their relationship. Because, let’s be real, the ones about break ups are way better than the love songs (well minus ‘Mine’). Read More »


Gossip Cheat Sheet: Hollywood Falls in Love

Maybe in an attempt to make up for all the cheating and divorcing that went on this past year, half of Hollywood seemed to get engaged over the holidays. I guess they really let the Christmas spirit get to them. Either way, congrats celebs. I only hope that at least one of these couples will still be around come 2012.
