christina hendricks is amazing

hallelujah! and hallelujah one more time for good measure! mad men‘s christina hendricks has been named the america’s most beautiful woman by esquire magazine. so, so deserving.

she just exudes “sexy!” the actress, who received a whopping 30 per cent of the votes, appears on the cover of the the mag’s may issue.

following closely behind the mad men bombshell was previous winner megan fox with 14 % of the votes and victoria’s secret model adriana lima, who earned 17 %. as gorgeous as she is, her interview was even better. check out some highlights below on her “letter to men”:

We love your body. If we’re in love with you, we love your body. Your potbelly, everything. Even if you’re insecure about something, we love your body. You feel like you’re not this or that? We love your body. We embrace everything. Because it’s you.

We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women. When you mention in passing that a certain woman is attractive — could be someone in the office, a woman on the street, a celebrity, any woman in the world, really — your comment goes into a steel box and it stays there forever. We will file the comment under “Women He Finds Attractive.”

We also remember everything you say about our bodies, be it good or bad. Doesn’t matter if it’s a compliment. Could be just a comment. Those things you say are stored away in the steel box, and we remember these things verbatim. We remember what you were wearing and the street corner you were standing on when you said it.

Remember what we like… I mentioned this three or four weeks ago and talked about it briefly, but he was really listening to me. And he actually went out and researched and found this thing for me. It was amazing.

Stand up, open a door, offer a jacket. We talk about it with our friends after you do it. We say, “Can you believe he stood up when I approached the table?” It makes us feel important. And it makes you important because we talk about it.

No shorts that go below the knee. The ones almost like capri pants, the ones that hover somewhere between the kneecap and the calf? Enough with those shorts. They are the most embarrassing pants in the world. They should never be worn. No woman likes those.

There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, for instance. It’s an underused word. It’s a very special word. “You are radiant.” Also, enchanting, smoldering, intoxicating, charming, fetching.

Marriage changes very little. Intelligence and humor (and your smell) are what get you laid. That’s what got you laid when you were single. That’s what gets you laid when you’re married. Everything still works in marriage: especially intelligence and humor. Because the sexiest thing is to know you.

perez for american idol?

unless you’ve been holed up under a rock, you know that american idol‘s beloved simon cowell plans on parting ways with the ratings king at the end of this season.  so that leaves randy jackson, kara dioguardi and newly-minted ellen degeneres to hold down the judge’s fort. room for one more?

well, that’s what perez hilton is hoping for. the self-proclaimed celebrity and gossip blogger is campaigning - hard – to take over cowell’s spot. see his desperate plea above! it doesn’t sound like he has much of a case, considering his biggest rationale for hopping on the idol stage centers around the fact that he’s “gay.” oh really? because we weren’t quite sure.

my thoughts closely mirror this guy‘s comment… “if this douche nozzle ever ended up on idol, i would never watch it again!!” but others, like simon cowell himself, think perez might be a good fit. please, spare us!

spokesperson for the skinny?

no shock here… thinner-than-thin celeb victoria beckham is adding her two cents about the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA)’s new “health is beauty” campaign. the campaign encourages stylists, designers and others in the fashion industry to work with healthier-sized models.

while guest hosting on ‘the view,’ victoria says of the issue “most of these girls are naturally thin and i don’t think we should be discriminating against someone because they are too thin or too curvy or too large or whatever it is.” point well-taken, but how in the world can designers tell which ones are “naturally thin” and which are starving themselves every day?

take this girl for example… model coco rocha was told to lose weight at a size 6! a former vogue cover model, rocha lost out on catwalk work because of her refusal to drop sizes. why risk her health? and hear this: model luisel ramos stuck to a menu of green leaves and diet coke for 3 months before runway season… and suffered a fatal heart attack as a result. nobody learned. just six months later, her own sister passed away of malnutrition! so sad. victoria, watch what you say next time. this is too serious to make assumptions.

made of gold?

don’t get me wrong, i’m a huge julia roberts fan. but come on, is she made of gold?

if you ventured out into the theaters this weekend to indulge in the celebrity love fest that is ‘valentine’s day,’ you might’ve caught a glimpse of the actress. judging from the trailer, we would’ve thought julia was a prime player. but as it turns out, she’s only in the film for roughly 6 minutes!

but that’s not the ridiculous part. for her part in the lovey-dovey flick, america’s sweetheart was paid $3 MILLION! that’s about $500,000 a minute. for that kinda cash, those better be the best 6 minutes of our lives!!

apparently roberts agreed to the part as a favor to director garry marshall. after casting her, it was much easier to get stars like jessica biel, ashton kutcher and anne hathaway on board. i guess only the box office can tell if julia was worth that paycheck… we’ll find out soon!

celeb babymakin’

20090830_spermy_560x229__oPt

ever looked at a magazine and thought, wow, i wish my baby could look like _____(fill in celebrity here). well, you’re in luck! l.a.-based sperm bank, california cryobank, has launched a “donor-look-a-like” service where recipients can choose a sperm donor based on their resemblance to celebrities. only in hollywood would this even occur to someone as a good idea!

the website boasts that look-alikes have been “researched and selected from the limitless expanses of the internet” and that the donors can be “actors, athletes, musicians, or anyone else famous enough to be found on the web.” recipients can search for their favorite celebrity among a long list that includes everyone from hugh grant and ben affleck to adam sandler and jet li!

but it should be noted that, according to the sperm bank, “no celebrity is meant as an exact match for any donor, nor should you assume that your future children will look like any celebrity listed.” disclaimer, anyone? the coo of idant laboratories, stephen feldschuh defends the new service: “ultimately we’re all interested in what someone looks like. it’s what we do when we’re dating or meet someone. i didn’t ask my wife her medical history before I decided to marry her.”

mother heidi

heidimother

i can’t even bring myself to fully dive into this insanity. so i’ll just share and bail.

paparazzi-lover heidi montag of reality fame has recently proclaimed “my goal is to be a true disciple of Jesus, a mother theresa helping the poor & the hungry.” now hey, i’m not here to judge how sincere her faith may be, but i can laugh in her face for comparing herself to mother theresa.

this came about during her stay on the reality tv show ‘i’m a celebrity get me out of here,’ in which she & hubby spencer thoroughly embarassed themselves just by, well, being themselves.

after the couple left the show because they were “too big of celebrities to be there,” they of course made the media rounds. on an appearance on ‘the view,’ the hosts confronted her claim, asking her if she truly believes herself to be similar to mother theresa. “well, i’m more of a modern version,” she says. yeah, like the kind who poses for playboy!

oh angelina

i reaaallly hate to say this, but i was officially disappointed in anglina jolie last night at the SAG awards. first off, she had a major ‘tude with e!’s guiliana depandi. she just seemed so high & mighty. very short, very drab.

she got super touchy when guiliana asked a question about brad pitt, and see here’s the thing – okay, fine, you don’t want to talk about your very PUBLIC relationship with another actor? then don’t do magazine covers (‘people,’ ‘vanity fair’). and also… don’t be a celebrity. it is part of the job that entertainment reporters are gonna ask about your life! everyone else will play along at least a little bit. but oh no, not her! check out her obnoxiousness below:

do you agree? tude-alicious! and then when it came to her fashion choice, i again was a bit disappointed. let’s be honest, she is quite gorgeous. but i don’t think her dress showcased that at all! and it was verrrry boring. and was almost the exact same dress she wore to the Golden Globes just 2 weeks prior. in my opinion, she was definitely not one of the best dressed!
