  • Molly Ringwald’s dieting rule of thumb

    SPL163186_005

    Molly Ringwald, 42, turned out at the Oscars in a slender, Trojan-style gown that made the recent birth of her twins seem eons away.

    But the actress laid her fine form to working out and a simple rule of thumb. Always choose something green.

    She told People Magazine: “I try to make sure that I eat something green. I think that’s just a really good rule of thumb. I love all different kinds of vegetables, but the green ones are generally the best for you and the best for your diet.”

    Ringwald, who stars in The Secret Life Of The American Teenager, just eight months ago gave birth to Adele Georgiana and Roman Stylianos. She said that getting into her current Oscars shape was a matter of “Just dieting basically. And it wasn’t even like a really strict diet. It was more just a sensible diet, cutting down on sweets and upping the vegetables and protein, less starch, and I just worked out a lot, I’d say about three or four times a week.”

  • Kirstie Alley launches new diet ‘elixir’

    Kirstie Alley-photo

    Fat Actress star Kirstie Alley has launched her own weight-loss company.

    The actress famously lost 75lbs on the Jenny Craig diet and appeared on Oprah in a bikini to show off her slimline figure.

    But she later piled all the weight back on and was replaced as the diet company’s spokeswoman by Valerie Bertinelli.

    But now she claims she has lost 20lbs since the beginning of this year by downing a new diet ‘elixir’ she helped create.

    The former Cheers star has now founded Organic Liaison, a company to support dieters in the US, and she has developed a series of slimming remedies.

    Alley said: “I’m not a doctor or a nutritionist – I’m a regular person like you who has been struggling with her weight and searching and praying for a weight-loss program to end that for ever.

    “Now my dream is a reality. I’ve been afforded access to the best products in the world. I’ve been researching and developing Organic Liaison for the past two years with the help of the greatest scientific minds on the planet.

    “I can promise you our certified weight-loss elixir, Rescue Me, takes on excess hunger and cravings. It will support your body and flood your body with the missing elements that make weight-loss an uphill battle.

    “Join me on my own weight-loss journey – I’ve lost over twenty pounds since January 1… and I don’t crave or have my usual huge appetite.”

  • Former Baywatch bombshell Nicole Eggert piled on the pounds after father’s death

    RE 270906 A

    Former Baywatch bombshell Nicole Eggert reportedly piled on the pounds after struggling to cope with the death of her father.

    The petite blonde, who famously strutted her stuff as Summer Quinn alongside Pamela Anderson in the iconic TV show, has opened up about her weight battle ahead of taking part in the new season of VH1’s Celebrity Fit Club.

    Recent photographs of Nicole, 38, left her almost unrecognisable to fans, after she gained two stone in weight.

    Her mother Georgina Eggert says the over-eating habit was sparked by a family tragedy which devastated Nicole to the point where she would not get out of bed.

    “When her father died it took a lot out of her,” Georgina told Radaronline. “It’s been two years, but she was really bummed out and stressed about her dad. She spent a lot of time in bed.”

    Nicole’s father Ralph passed away after a short battle with cancer.

    Her mum added: “On anybody else the weight gain wouldn’t have been as noticeable. She wasn’t really that heavy, but she was on Baywatch and everyone expected her to still be that. She’s not 18 any more.”

    The first episode of Celebrity Fit Club premiered in the US on Monday night. Georgina says her daughter has already come a long way since it was filmed. “She’s lost the weight. She looks great,” she said.

  • Kirstie Alley whips out vodka in aircraft toilet

    Kirstie Alley whips out the vodka whenever she is on a plane trip – to clean the loo.

    Alley donned yellow dish gloves and took Oprah viewers back to the lavish colonial home of a childhood friend where she was once hired as a housekeeper, showing off her cleaning skills.

    Vodka is Alley’s cleaning potion of choice, especially when she goes into an aircraft toilet.

    “I think cleaning is an art,” declared Alley.

    The weight-loss queen, who famously appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show in a bikini after a Jenny Craig dieting-spokesmodel stint, recommended cheap vodka. “Really cheap vodka. It’s antibacterial, not toxic, has no scent and leaves things really shining.”

    Alley said the youthful housekeeping experience gave her an appetite for nice things, such as small manses and down bedding. She showed off a photo of a gorgeous historical home she drove past and admired for years before making it her own.

    Alley updated Oprah about a weight loss before-and-after program that fell through when the network she was working with dropped the project. She said she was now signed a contract for another program. She said:”I have an amazing life. I really don’t collapse and fall down and I really don’t weigh 300 pounds.”

  • Kim Kardashian deep-fries Oreos – after promoting healthier fast food

    SPL129927_007

    Kim Kardashian helped cook her favourite snack – deep-fried biscuits – just moments after plugging an ad campaign for healthy fast food.

    The reality TV star, who promotes Carl Jr’s salads in a new US advert, donned a paper hat to deep-fry Oreos with chef Guy Fieri on the Jay Leno Show.

    Having previously insisted the fast-food chain’s salads were in keeping with her new fitness regime, Miss Kardashian waxed lyrical about the battered delights.

    “Yummy. Where’s the vanilla ice-cream. You need vanilla ice-cream,” she said.

    And asked whether she cooks at home, she confessed: “I cook a really good fried chicken and macaroni cheese – all the healthy stuff.”

    Miss Kardashian, 29, debuted the sexy Carl’s Jr ad during her appearance on Jay Leno’s show.

    Sprawling on a bed in a low-cut nightgown, the TV star sensually tucks into the salad before ‘accidentally’ dripping dressing past her cleavage.

    “I’m such a neat freak. Everything’s got to be clean, crisp and tasty. And while the best things in life are messy, it’s fun to get clean,” her voiceover says.

    She then strips off to soak in a bubble bath – while still nibbling on the salad.

    “Who said salads can’t be hot?” a separate voiceover says.

    Miss Kardashian told Leno that the ad took a full day to shoot and around 500 takes.

  • Meg Ryan spotted holidaying in Hawaii looking thin

    SPL100951_008

    Meg Ryan has been spotted holidaying in Hawaii looking thin and gaunt, suggesting she may be taking trimness a little too seriously, according to reports.

    Strolling on a beach in Hawaii two years ago, she looked toned and healthy as she carried her adopted daughter Daisy True in her arms. Meanwhile, back on the Hawaiian sands this week, she looked paler and a lot thinner. The tired-looking star also lacked the youthful glow she sported when becoming such a firm favourite in When Harry Met Sally.

    The actress is taking a break with family and friends after her latest movie, Serious Moonlight, opened to a slating from critics in America earlier this month.

    It is more than 20 years since Miss Ryan’s breakthrough movie, When Harry Met Sally, and 16 years since her last big hit, Sleepless In Seattle.

    She has taken two years off work to care for the daughter she adopted from China.

    Her return to the big screen has coincided with rumours about plastic surgery. She is believed to have had lip implants as well as Botox injections.

    Despite this, Miss Ryan, who also has a 17-year-old son Jack with her former husband Dennis Quaid, has insisted she doesn’t fear the ageing process.

    In an interview last year she said: ‘Turning 40 in Hollywood was definitely something for me but it doesn’t feel like an ending.

    “My interests have expanded and I have never felt more creative than I do right now.”

  • Screen hunk Matt Damon says it was “liberating”

    SPL122037_002

    Screen hunk Matt Damon says it was “liberating” to pad out his action hero body for new movie The Informant.

    The screen hunk – known for his usually lean, mean physique – gained almost two stone (30lbs) by gobbling junk food.

    He needed to acquire an impressive gut to play a plump whistle-blower in the newly-released comedy flick.

    And the Bourne star, 38, says his wife Luciana had no choice but to like it.

    “I made my wife appreciate it. She was a good sport. I paraded around. I loved my body,” he told USA Today.

    “I walked around, danced – dancing with a belly like that was fun.

    “My stepdaughter loved it, too. She kept poking me in the stomach, laughing.”

    Despite his brief chubby spell, the father-of-two, whose last film was the 2007 action blockbuster The Bourne Ultimatum, is in huge demand.

    He has Clint Eastwood’s Invictus, about Nelson Mandela’s attempt to unite his country through rugby, out in December.

    And in March, Damon hunts for weapons of mass destruction in the Iraq war thriller Green Zone, from Paul Greengrass.

    “I know it’s a cliche, but I really do feel lucky, and the work I’m getting the chance to do, it’s great,” he told the newspaper.

  • Lindsay Lohan brings on weight loss scare


    Lindsay Lohan is a time bomb waiting to blow. People are getting scared about her drastic weight loss, rather skeletak appearance. She was last seen attending the fashion show of partner Samantha Ronson’s sister during the the New York Fashion Show Week. Lindsay Lohan turned heads as usual when she took the front seat but this time people were looking at her not for anything else but because of what has become of her former hot looks, now diminished to a vry boney and itty bitty Lindsay Lohan. Apparently, the 22-year old’s bad behavior to include late nights and smoking to name a few is catching up on her .

    Take a look at the photos of Lindsay Lohan before and after she got hooked with DJ Samantha Ronson. They may be making money off their DJ and hosting gigs but this is also an opportunity for Lindsay Lohan to hang around with a bad crowd which does not even make you wonder how she is losing weight so fast. Well, try living off on coffee, cigarettes and Red Bull the way Lindsay Lohan does and you will surely catch up with her ultra skinny physique reminiscent of someone suffering from Anorexia.

  • Jessica’s tears finally falls down


    Jessica Simpson appeared apathetic about the controversy her ballooning figure has caused thanks to support from sister Ashlee, brother-in-law Pete and even former husband Nick. However, Simpson finally broke down and gave way to those tears during a performance at the Grand Rapids, Michigan last Thursday night. She has been rudely criticized for gaining weight and showing it off no thanks to her high-waisted jeans and Fendi wide belt. The singer, who was in jean shorts and cowboy boots, was on cue for her 35-minute opening act but suddenly forgot the words to the song.

    The show must go on so wiping her tears, Simpson continued to perform in front of an estimated 9,000 strong audience albeit at a low energy level. This was plainly evident when she sang “With You” and “These Boots Are Made for Walking”—songs that were supposed to be sang upbeat. Simpson continued her performance but did not establish any connection with her audience, most of the time turning her back against them or looking straight into the crowd. Simpson admitted she was feeling vulnerable that night. She even paused in the middle of “With You” to drink water. At the end of the show Simpson dedicated her last song to her sister Ashlee saying she has given her strength when she felt like walking off the stage.

  • Jessica Simpson Talks Weight


    Jessica Simpson stepped out wearing a bold pair of leather pants when she performed at University of Virginia’s John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville, Virginia last week. The 28-year old wannabe country singer opened up for Rascal Flatts. Jess never outright mentioned her fuller figure but did say “Please remember, no matter what you go through in life, somebody else might have it harder. So just appreciate. I feel like in our world today we focus on so many things that are completely pointless.” Is that another way of her saying that there are so many others fatter than her?

  • Country singer Wynonna Judd new face of Diet Pill


    Heavyweight country singer Wynonna Judd will be seen in a new advertisement in 2009, she will be the new face of a weight-loss product. Alli slimming pills have sign the 44 year-old country singer and she thinks that her public battle against weight will help others who have been confronted with weight issues themselves.

    While speaking about her new endorsement deal the singer said: “This is about me picking something that I know works for me. I can still plan (my work) and not feel like Alli is dictating my life as I have in the past on other programs. It fits into my schedule. I don’t have diet goals. My goals are to live as happy and healthy as I can. People can see themselves in me and say, ‘You know what? If she can do it, I can do it.’”

    I do love Wynona’s character & enjoy reading about many wonderful things that she has done. She is a hero in many ways. But that in no way makes me a supporter of diet pill, is there anything that cannot be achieved with will. Such a shame you can’t diet and exercise to get rid of the weight, diet pills not a good idea!

  • Madonna health fears

    madonna-sexy.jpg

    Madonna has sparked fears her turbulent personal life is taking its toll on her health.

    The ‘4 Minutes’ singer – who is currently rehearsing for her forthcoming world tour – has reportedly fired two dancers, while her tour manager is allegedly threatening to quit due to her “spectacular mood” swings.

    Madonna has been rocked by claims her marriage to Guy Ritchie is on the rocks and by allegations she is having an affair with baseball star Alex Rodriguez.

    Her brother Christopher released a tell-all book about her last week, which is said to have devastated her.

    A source close to the singer revealed: “Madonna is doing less than OK. She has been rehearsing for the tour and she is totally miserable. She’s down physically and mentally. The situation with Guy is very, very tense. The way everyone is going crazy with the A-Rod story, her brother’s book and her physical exhaustion are all taking their toll. She feels nobody has taken her side. One of her closest pals says she has never seen Madonna so low. She has been feeling down and looking really gaunt.”

    As Madonna struggles to cope with the stress, she has been diagnosed as anaemic and the usually super-fit star has suffered a knee injury. Following her knee injury, doctors have ordered the 49-year-old to take a break and she is reportedly staying with close friend Gwyneth Paltrow at the Hamptons resort in New York. Medics have advised she lessens the strain of her dance routines when she does return to rehearsals.

    The source added: “Madonna was told to go soft on work and rehearsals, so she will now take one proper day off every week and go easy in the mornings. She has a blood analysis done every few days – including one during last week’s rehearsal in front of everyone.”

  • Chris Martin on a diet

    chris-martin.jpg

    Chris Martin is on a diet. The Coldplay frontman revealed the whole band has been forced to swap tasty ‘baked goods’ for salads after they piled on the pounds while working on their new album ‘Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends’.

    Chris said: “It happens whenever we have some downtime, usually between albums. We get very hairy and kind of morph into Bill Oddie (British TV presenter) – we have stacked on the weight.”

    The singer revealed he decided to do something about his weight after receiving weight loss advice from an unusual source – Primal Scream bassist Mani. Chris added: “Mani was eating a sandwich and I asked him what was in it. He told me it was salad and that I should eat the same. Mani warned us that nobody wants a fat pop star.”

    Chris has now banned calorific club sandwiches from their catering menu while they are on tour promoting their new album.

    A source said: “They love club sandwiches and know they would be tempted to eat quite a few if they were available.”
