These days she?s a household name, but Irina Shayk told Fashion magazine that she began life in virtual obscurity.
The 29-year-old supermodel explained, ?Growing up I was born in the middle of nowhere, in a place called Yemanzhelinsk. My father was a coal miner, my mother a piano teacher. We had a garden because in Russia to survive you have to have a garden. We planted tomatoes, potatoes and cucumbers. I had to take care of it after school and help my mother.?
As for how she got discovered, Irina noted, ?My older sister went to a beauty school that was next door to a modelling school, and she asked me to join her there. One day an agent approached me. He's the one who discovered Natalia Vodianova and all the big Russian models. He wanted me to go to Paris. After a couple of months I said yes; I thought it might be a great opportunity to help my family.?

Everything she touches turns to gold it seems, and Victoria Beckham told Fern Mallis that she?s pleased with the way things have turned out for her.
During her chat this week, Posh explained, "I've achieved a lot in 41 years and I like how 41 feels. I feel good. I don't like how it sounds too much. It doesn't sound great but you know I?m proud of everything I've achieved. I've got four incredible children, a wonderful life with my husband. I couldn't have done much more in 41 years so I'm okay with it."
As for her rise to fame with Melanie Brown, Emma Bunton, Melanie Chisholm and Geri Halliwell as the Spice Girls back in 1994, Victoria declared, "I went to audition -- there were thousands of girls that showed up for the audition and there were queues around the dance studio in London. Everybody stood up one by one and were being taped and everybody sang songs... I think I sang Mein Herr from Cabaret, which was really, really not the right thing to do but it got me in the group."
"Nobody put those images on us. We all just looked that way. I always dressed that way. Mel B was always the scary one wearing the leopard print and Emma was always the baby one wearing the pigtails and there?s those bloody awful shoes they made us --those big platform shoes,? Beckham added.

| | Kim Kardashian has so many amazing complaints about her pregnancy already | | Added 9 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Ever since Kim Kardashian konfirmed her second pregnancy last Sunday, she?s been complaining. It?s been glorious. First she had her newscycle hijacked by Caitlyn Jenner, then she had to tell everyone everything about how she was feeling, which is apparently ?sick as a dog.? She?s been complaining about morning sickness (which in her case is all-day sickness), she?s been complaining about heels, Spanx, food and Kanye?s inability to stick around after he knocks her up. I genuinely feel sorry for her about her all-day sickness, but I?m really looking forward to her non-stop bitching for the next six months. Kim is only three months along and she?s already over it. This is definitely going to be her last pregnancy. Anyway, Kim spoke to Elle Magazine about Spanx and heels and she drops a few F-bombs because she?s knocked up, puking and she doesn’t give a f?k.
How she feels in her Spanx: “Please feel secure. You know, earlier today, I was wearing these pregnancy Spanx and they were newer, so they weren’t really the color tone of what I used to wear, and so you totally saw through, and I was just like ‘F–k it, I’m more comfortable in that and it’s just going to be one of those days’?I wasn’t feeling good.?
What she does for the sake of a photo: “But you know, sometimes I wear two pairs [of Spanx] under something or stockings?it holds you in. And when you go on all these hormones and stuff, before I felt like, you know, I was trying everything so I was getting bigger and bigger and I was like ‘No, I’m not pregnant yet, I need to be skinny.’ So, I was definitely insecure. And, I mean, sometimes I’ll wear something and I’ll get inside and be like ‘Oh my God, I want to take these shoes off,’ like ‘That was not normal, I can’t wear these, I need to just leave and take them off.’ So it might look good in the picture, but I get them and then like, I’ve got to be normal and like unbutton my pants when I get in the car.”
She hates flats: “I happen to hate the way I look in flats. It’s really hard for me so I’m already thinking, like, ‘What the f–k am I going to do?’ And when I was pregnant, it was the hardest thing. But I know it’s better and easier, you know, so it’s a struggle.”

What?s funny to me is that at no point does it occur to Kim to just take it easy, wear flats, unapologetically gain some pregnancy weight, not wear Spanx, not wear too-tight clothing and simply go away and not be photographed for several months. The thought never even occurs to her that she?s perfectly capable of having a low-key, out-of-the-spotlight pregnancy with no drama. But the Struggle is Real for Kim. She?s going to be complaining about heels, Spanx, clothes and so much more for months.

| | Woe is Blake Lively, Anna Wintour made her launch Preserve before it was ready | | Added 9 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

If you remember correctly, Blake Lively launched her lifestyle site, Preserve, last summer. The collective reaction went from ambivalence to? laughter, I think. There were some defenders, but I think most of us recognized it for what it was: a hipster, artisanal-lite take on Gwyneth Paltrow?s Goop. The writing on the site was widely mocked, deservedly, because in additional to shilling hipster nonsense, Blake was also writing pro-Antebellum-South essays. Anyway, Blake?s Preserve launch coincided with her August 2014 Vogue cover story, in which she talked almost exclusively about Preserve and how unique it was and how no one ever thought of shilling hipster junk on the internet. Now, in a new Time Magazine interview, Blake is coming clean about how the launch was rushed on Anna Wintour?s orders. You can read the full Time piece here. Some highlights:
Whether she?s an actress or a businesswoman: ?I don?t see an ?or? there. I see myself as a storyteller?or at least that?s what I try to do. As an actress, I try to tell stories in the most honest way possible, and hope people will connect to that emotionally. With Preserve, I?m doing the same thing: meeting chefs, meeting artisans, designers, craftsmen. I?m moved by their stories and I?m sharing them with my friends.?
Whether Preserve has a business plan: ?I hope there?s a business plan! It?s a proper company? It?s hard to make something different. I?m lucky to have friends who are successful entrepreneurs, and their companies? valuations are very impressive and they?re up against time and money. I?ve seen such generosity that I haven?t seen in the profession of acting?it?s not that actors aren?t generous, but no one has connected me with Meryl Streep to muse about what has worked onscreen and why. In the world of entrepreneurs, I?ve been amazed to be connected with other companies? CTOs and CFOs and talk about what has worked and what didn?t.?
Anticipating the negative reaction to Preserve: ?I see what happens in the world of female entrepreneurs and I see what the media does. And that they pit women against each other and there?s an ?or??should women stick to this or this? I knew we?d probably get grilled, or celebrated for being someone they?re not already picking on. It felt like a new kid coming to school: I?ll get picked on, or liked, for being from a different place. And I?ve been to 16 schools in my life, so I?ve experienced that bullying. There is constructive criticism we?ve taken to heart. And then there?s people being mean for the sake of being mean, or when you?re trying to be light and people take you literally. It?s a nasty world. You don?t see male entrepreneurs pitted against each other, destroyed, picked apart, and every word they say served up to judge.?
Anna Wintour?s demands: ?The things that keep me up are things I look at on the site and I know could be better. I knew this was supposed to be better. Time and money, time and money. What I wanted Preserve to be at launch was not what it is at all. It?s just impossible! We found ourselves at launch and we had a Vogue cover set up, so I couldn?t call Anna Wintour and say ?I need six more months??people hacked into our site a week and a half before it was meant to launch, so the site leaked. The site?s not close to what I want it to be. I hope by the time it?s what I want it to be, my standards will be raised infinitely more.?
She never wanted to be an actress: ?I never knew I wanted to be an actor. I fell into it and was lucky to have incredible opportunities that shaped my life. There were things I planned for my life that I missed out on. Going to an Ivy League school was my dream. I wanted to be an entrepreneur and carve my own path.?
[From Time Magazine]
Poor baby, Anna Wintour forced her to launch her silly lifestyle site to coincide with a Vogue cover!! #RichWhiteWomanProblems. I feel like the whole ?bullying? section of the interview was specifically about the ?Allure of Antebellum? issue, in which she attempted to force Gawker to remove their critical coverage and they in turn published her legal threats. If she says that Preserve is not where it needs to be and that they?ve experienced 9 months of growing pains? sure, I agree. But I don?t think that gives her a free pass. She made such a big deal about how this site was going to be SO different and special and we had never seen anything like it, and now that everyone has seen that it?s a pretty mundane, poorly organized, hard-to-navigate site shilling hipster nonsense, now she wants a do-over.
PS… This interview was part of Time Magazine’s larger profile on celebrity women and their lifestyle sites. Go here to see Gwyneth’s piece.

| | Rose Byrne: Women are valued for how we look, how we?re 'presenting ourselves' | | Added 9 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

I like Rose Byrne a lot, although I rarely write about her. It?s sort of weird how she works all the time, she?s an in-demand actress in comedy and drama, yet she almost completely flies under the radar at a gossip-level. She?s with Bobby Cannavale (HOT) and she?s in the new Paul Feig film, Spy, reuniting her with her Bridesmaids costar Melissa McCarthy. Rose has seemingly been happy to have Melissa take over the bulk of the film?s promotion, but Rose did sit down for a feature in the new issue of the online magazine Violet Grey. You can see the full piece here ? the editorial is all about makeup and glitter. The interview is pretty interesting though.
Rose on beauty: ?Beauty comes from within. It?s a clich, but I think it?s true. However, in this business, it?s hard to reconcile that when you?re constantly being told things about your appearance, whether it?s that you are too pretty or too plain or too brunette or whatever the problem is.?
Her makeup regimen: ?Well, goodness me. Growing up, my mum never wore a lot of makeup, she was very natural. However, it?s important to take care of yourself and it doesn?t hurt to put on a bit of lipstick. I discovered I was allergic to all these chemicals and we put together a very strict bible of all the products I could use. I actually wear makeup every day. I use a NARS tinted moisturizer. I love those Fresh lip stains. I wear them religiously. They are terrific in a berry color. I try to put on a hat if I can.
Skin care and genetics: ?In Australia, there is such a high rate of skin cancer that it?s really beaten into us at an early age to be careful about our skin. Although, you know, my boyfriend smokes cigarettes and doesn?t drink water and has better skin than anybody that I know! He?s half-Cuban and half-Italian. He?s like, “Dios mo! It?s genetic, it doesn?t matter.? So why am I trying??
All women are more scrutinized for their looks: ?Absolutely! Increasingly! Look at Hillary Clinton. She has to spend time getting her hair and makeup done whereas a male candidate doesn?t have to do that as much. Or at least as much grooming. It really is this very old concept that we are valued for putting ourselves together and presenting ourselves.?
A beauty look that she won?t try: ?Brown lipstick. The 90s may be back, but I?m still recovering from that look.?
[From Violet Grey]
I?ve never understood the desire to wear makeup every day! My mom is like this too ? she will never, ever leave the house without putting on makeup. And she really doesn?t look different at all without makeup, which makes it extra crazy. Also: Bobby doesn?t drink water and he smokes? That will catch up to him at some point, although his genetics are helping him right now (Dios mo!).
