Heidi Klum’s gleeful bikini

Last Mothers’ Day, Heidi Klum was down in the dumps and freshly-single after splitting from husband-of-seven-years Seal.   But what a difference a year has made for the German model and mother-of-four.

In an apparent thinly-veiled attack at her ex, Heidi happily tweeted a bikini snap of herself along with the message: ‘Happy Mother’s Day! Best Mother’s Day ever….’   Of course Heidi is now happily ensconced with bodyguard-turned-boyfriend Martin Kirsten, which might explain her very public and gleeful declaration of domesticated bliss.

Heidi, 39, looked fantastic as she floated around a pool on a Li-Lo, glass of wine in hand, showing off her toned figure in an orange bikini.   Over the weekend the German model played the doting mother as she spent time with her brood and boyfriend Martin.   The family were spotted out in Los Angeles where they hit up the beach in Santa Monica and enjoyed a bike ride along the boardwalk.   Heidi recently told Us Weekly that it can tough to juggle the schedules of her four children.   She said: ‘It’s a huge responsibility to have four kids.

‘They all have different likes and dislikes and activities that they want to do. You have to learn how to juggle all of that, and at the same time, give them each the love that they need.   ‘When you have one [child], you can focus on one. With four, you have to make sure [your attention] is all spread out just right,.   ‘You have to understand how different they all are! And at the end of the day, there is not much time left for you!’

Jillian Michaels puts Hollywood home up for sale!

The Biggest Loser star Jillian Michaels made the jump from being in a couple to family of four in just a week last year.   So it’s no wonder the personal trainer needs a bigger house to accommodate her growing family.   The brunette and partner Heidi Rhodes, who gave birth to son Phoenix a week before they adopted Lukensia from Haiti last spring, are selling their Hollywood Hills home for $2.45million.

Jillian, 39, bought the three bedroom, four bathroom home in 2008 for $1.56milion.   She actually player a part in designing the home, which includes a master bedroom suite with walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom with tub and steam shower.

The house includes two further bedrooms – one for the children, with the second being used as an office.   The modern house is located in a gated community and includes incredible views of Los Angeles.   Last July, the couple were left shaken when the house was burgled in the middle of the night.

Thieves took her Bentley after finding the keys in the house.   Meanwhile, Jillian recently admitted she was finding it hard to juggle her job and parenting Phoenix and Lukensia.   She told Fitness magazine: ‘I get up at 7 am – after being up all night with the baby – and run around trying to get both kids diaper-changed, dressed and fed.

‘Finally I’ll shower, and before I know it, I’ve got 50 emails to answer, and I need to leave for work.   ‘At the end of the day, I come home, and I’m like, “OK, let me bathe you, change you, feed you, read you books, put you to bed” – wait, how am I supposed to do all this?   ‘Son of a b***h, this is hard!’

Cheryl Cole touches down at LAX

She recently admitted she is making the most of the current lull in her career to enjoy a well-earned break from her usually jam-packed schedule.

And taking a rest from the music industry appeared to have done Cheryl Cole the world of good as she touched down at Los Angeles LAX Airport on Saturday evening.

Flashing her famous killer-watt smile as she wandered through the arrivals terminal, the 29-year-old singer flashed her toned and tanned pins in a pair of tiny buttercup yellow shorts.

The Geordie beauty teamed her sexy yellow hotpants with a stylish loose-fitting gunmetal grey blouse, while toting a matching snakeskin-print handbag.

Showing no hint of the fact that she had just stepped off a lengthy transatlantic flight, Cheryl looked positively radiant as she showed off her flawless skin with minimal bronze make-up, and wore her long brunette locks tumbling in dramatic waves around her shoulders.

Ever the A-lister, the Call My Name hitmaker completed her jet-set look with a pair of white aviator shades to shelter her eyes from the glare of the flashbulbs.

Perhaps the reason behind Cheryl’s sunny appearance was the fact that she may have been en route to see her long-distance lover, dancer Tre Holloway, who currently lives in the US.

The star recently admitted that while she is making the most of having a clear schedule for once, she would never abandon music for good.

She said in an interview with Daybreak: ‘It’s exciting that I actually don’t have any plans for once, because I got a little way in with the third album and then decided to put it to one side so I could focus on the Girls Aloud tour and that’s just come to an end, so I actually don’t know.

‘Music is my life, music is my passion, my first love, so that will always be part of what I’m doing. But I actually don’t have any plans right now.

‘I’m turning 30 in June… I’ve had an incredible decade in this industry, with the highs and the lows. 30 is a very empowering age for me, I feel the best I’ve ever felt.’

Lady Gaga new bleached hairdo!

She’s been lying low since undergoing an operation on her hip in February.   However, as Lady Gaga broke cover in Los Angeles, it appears she may have grown bored with her usual longer locks.   The singer, 27, showed off a platinum blonde bob as she enjoyed a night at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood on Sunday.

The Born This Way hitmaker was wearing white power, heavy blush and winged eyeliner and a white top with plunging back.   Accompanied by a blonde friend, Gaga looked rather sleepy as she rode home in the white convertible.   As she is currently taking time out of the spotlight to recuperate from an injury, Gaga is probably enjoying the rest from her dramatic hairstyles or wigs we often see her sporting.

She previously admitted in an interview that she has to get her hair cut short quite regularly because her locks are in such bad condition from all the chemicals and dye she uses.   The natural brunette told People magazine two years ago: ‘I have to get a chemical haircut because my blonde hair is falling out.’   Gaga was forced to cancel her Born This Way Ball in February after revealing she had suffered a labral tear in her hip.

After undergoing an operation, she had been confined to a wheelchair while she recovers.   She confessed on Twitter that she dealt with chronic pain for several months prior to seeking medical help, but chose to ignore its effects rather than disappoint her fans.   While recovering, she has rarely been seen, but was photographed in Chicago, Illinois, for her birthday last month.   She was seen in a wheelchair while visiting boyfriend Taylor Kinney, who is on location in the city filming the NBC drama Chicago Fire.

Back in business

She was forced to cancel three concerts earlier this week after being struck down with an undisclosed illness.   However, Rihanna showed she was back to her usual self as she stepped out in a signature skimpy outfit as she boarded a flight in Los Angeles on Friday.   The Barbadian singer, 25, looked like she was back to health as she boarded a private plane to Tampa, Florida ahead of her gig that night.

Although looking undeniably thin, she wore a pair of denim short shorts, black top with side slits and a pair of £1,107 Alexander Wang Martha cut-out leather boots.   Ahead of takeoff, she tweeted: ‘#DIAMONDSWORLDTOUR I’m back!!! #Tampa we’re coming to find you!!!’   She also posted an Intagram photo of her wearing her distinctive white sandals in the cockpit of her private plane, captioning it: ‘Just me and my cockpit.’

Her Tampa concert went off without a hitch, with British reality TV star Jessica Wright in the audience.   The Only Way Is Essex star tweeted: ‘My love has grown even more for @rihanna since tonight’s show in Tampa! Love her!!!! Bed now shattered wicked night.’   Earlier this week, Rihanna cancelled two gigs in Houston, Texas, which followed on from previous cancellations in Baltimore and Boston last month.

She then returned home to Los Angeles, where she was photographed visiting a medical centre on Tuesday.

Writing on Instagram last week, the singer said: ”I was sick since San Diego! I kept working because I thought two days off after the Vegas show would be enough time to recover and I f****ed up, those were two days off from hell and today is not different!   ‘I’m sad and disappointed about it! I had all kinds of plans for Houston!’

Concert promoter Live Nation added that the cancellation was ‘as a result of illness’, although declined to reveal the exact nature of said sickness.   However, many fans have been speculating about the nature of Rihanna’s illness, as the singer has been seen partying in between her tour stops.   Rihanna has regularly posted shots of her antics on her Twitter and Instagram pages – most recently of which showed her and a group of friends celebrating the singer’s friend Melissa Forde’s birthday on the bus en route to San Diego.

It’s finally over!

Kris Humphries has decided to settle with Kim Kardashian in their divorce case after battling for a year and a half – and over five times as long as the marriage itself lasted.

According to sources, Kris backed down after no evidence of fraud perpetrated by Kim emerged.   He was then forced to consider mounting legal costs and the prospect of losing any pay-out from his estranged wife – a pre-nup would be invoked if the trial got to court.

This means that Kris has most likely agreed to a divorce – as Kim wished – and dropped his pleas for an annulment based on fraud, and sources are saying the judge has signed off divorce papers and dissolved the marriage.

Kris, who was ordered by the judge to attend Friday’s hearing so he could face fines for last no show, skipped the appointment.   But a sombre-looking Kim acquitted herself well by refusing to revel in getting the verdict she wanted, and looked stunning in a beautiful, suitably black fitted dress.

It’s been a dirty fight, with each camp going back and forth with tales of betrayal and deceit.

A source even claimed that Kris was the one who persuaded his estranged wife to take the honeymoon trip to the Amalfi Coast in Italy.   ‘Kris was the one to push for the honeymoon. Kim didn’t want to go on the honeymoon because they were scheduled to move to New York City to begin filming Kourtney & Kim Take New York,’ a source told Radar Online.   ‘Kim finally relented. Kris was absolutely dumbfounded when a photographer appeared out of nowhere and started taking pics of them by the pool,’ the source said. ‘Kim happily posed, and Kris realised her camp had arranged it.’

At her divorce deposition Kim confessed that she was against going on the holiday, which Kris is allegedly using as part of his case against the 32-year-old reality star, claiming their marriage was fraud.   On Wednesday Kim, who is pregnant with her first child, was seen looking somber as she arrived at a Los Angeles studio alone.   Her boyfriend Kanye West meanwhile has been based in Paris since Fashion Week in February, with Kim regularly flying over to visit him.

Making New Friends!

Talented Friends are great additions to any comedy.

And Lisa Kudrow certainly looked happy to be joining the case of new comedy Townies.   The 49 year-old was all business in her gray power pant suit as she joined Zac Efron on set.   The 25 year-old High School Musical leading man looked slick in a blue pin-striped button up, navy tie and slacks.

Also walking with Kudrow and Efron was 27 year-old actor Dave Franco, wearing a button up and tie in a more casual fashion.

The Townies hunk held a drink from Starbucks in his right hand, the same hand and wrist that was injured due to a fall during filming less than a week ago.

Puffiness due to swelling and bruised discoloration from the injury could still clearly be seen in Efron’s hand, though he had shed the protective cast and wrap that he had worn over the busy past few days.

Beyonce opens world tour!

If it was Beyoncé’s wish to grab the attention – and the headlines – on the opening night of her Mrs. Carter tour, she certainly succeeded.   While her bootylicious body alone is enough to catch the eye – the singer took no chances as she graced the stage in her raciest costume yet.   Beyoncé, 31, stunned concert goers in a gold sequin-encrusted bodysuit adorned with a pair of trompe l’oeil breasts – complete with protruding nipples – as she stormed the stage in Belgrade, Serbia on Monday evening.

Although the singer started her career in clothes designed by mother Tina Knowles, she enlisted the help of some famous friends while putting together the wardrobe for her latest extravaganza.   British designer Julien Macdonald designed pieces for Beyoncé’s wardrobe.   Likewise, Emilio Pucci creative director Peter Dundas and Dsquared2 designers Dean and Dan Caten, and Ralph and Russo are also said to have collaborated with the pop idol.   Footwear impresario Stuart Weitzman contributed the entirety of the dancing diva’s shoes.

After shimmying and strutting in the racy fringe-lined, sequin-covered piece, Beyoncé slipped into a second bodysuit.   He told People magazine:’I’ve been doing shoes for so long for her, we’ve learned what she needs,’  that includes heels ‘of a special width for her to dance on’ rubberized soles ‘so she’s not slippin’ and slidin’ around’ and extra padding inside.   He added: ‘She really is interested in the way the shoe feels on her foot.   ‘She absolutely has the impression of not being willing to suffer, no matter how the shoe looks on her foot.’

The singer put Weitzman’s shoes to work as she channeled Wonder Woman in a mesh-paneled bodysuit, which featured gold rope detailing and a PVC trimmed peplum skirt.

The ensemble also included a leather collar and matching wrist cuffs.   Later, a harem of dancers in complementary skirted suits flanked the Single Ladies performer.   A crimson gown fastened at the chest by a gold pendant provided a bold pop of colour to an otherwise monochrome collection.

Still, black-based bodysuits seem to be the Halo crooner’s go-to ensemble, as she strutted in two more such pieces before ending the evening.   One piece provided full-body coverage, allowing Beyoncé’s voice to shine as she was illuminated by a single spotlight.

Meanwhile, another star-studded suit featured a waist-cinching belt and accentuated the singer’s shapely legs.

Beyoncé has 64 more shows on the tour which will see her travel across Europe, North America and South America.

The Crazy In Love hitmaker had been due to play eight English shows starting April 29th and more May, but following popular demand she has now added three more gigs to her tour.

Beyonce’s UK itinerary now includes additional appearances at London’s The O2 on 4 and 5 May, and the Manchester Arena on 9 May.

This brings the pop sensation’s total number of shows in London to six and Manchester to three.   She will also perform two gigs in Birmingham.  The former Destiny’s Child singer will then take a month’s break before returning to the stage at Los Angeles’ Staples Center on 28 June.   Beyonce will perform on 3 August in her spouse’s hometown of Brooklyn, New York.   Australia, Asia and Latin America will be included on the second leg of the tour, which will run for over a year.   Her last show is scheduled for September 13 in Brazil.

 

 

Its Official!

Her Glee co-star Heather Morris has just announced that she is expecting her first child.   And now Naya Rivera has big news of her own, after she and her new boyfriend Big Sean made their official debut as a couple at the premiere of new movie 42 in Los Angeles on Tuesday night.   The couple strolled onto the red carpet hand-in-hand, before posing up with their arms around each other.

While the pair had been spotted together on various occasion over the past few months, they looked thrilled to finally be making their romance official as they attended the event at the TCL Chinese Theatre.   Naya, 26, smouldered for the waiting photographers, showing off her slim figure in a grey snakeskin dress and white pointed heels, leaving her dark brown hair loose in tumbling curls for the occasion.   Big Sean, 25, meanwhile, appeared to find the red carpet event slightly more amusing – grinning with delight he joked around pulling faces and funny poses behind his girlfriend’s back.

 

 

tight squeeze!

Her former sparring partner on The Voice Adam Levine famously sings the song Harder to Breathe.   And Christina Aguilera may feel like doing a cover version after she was spotted in a pair of extremely tight jeans in Los Angeles on Monday.   She squeezed her curves into the bottoms before going to see Rihanna’s concert in the city with her boyfriend Matthew Rutler.

The pair looked excited to find out what all the fuss was about with the saucy singer’s Diamonds World Tour.   And she looked like she had decided to dress for the occasion, also wearing a tight leather jacket, top and baseball cap.   It is not the first time the Dirrty star has showed of her new slimmer-line look.   For she turned heads in a little black and white dress as she arrived for a screening of NBC’s The Voice Season 4 in Hollywood last month.

Last year Christina said she was totally unrepentant about the way her clothes advertise her assets.   She said: ‘Actually, the challenge I’ve always had is being too thin, so I love that now I have a booty, and obviously I love showing my cleavage.’.   ‘Hey, if you can work it and you can own it, that confidence is going to shine through.’
