Sofia Vegara reveals her biggest beauty regret and it’s so relatable

It's not too late to start though.

Sofia Vergara is famous for her curvaceous body, but she still has regrets about the way she took her ‘youthful looks’ for granted in her 20s.

The Modern Family star wishes she had applied suncreen to her chest instead of just her face and neck from a younger age.

“In my 20s, I started to use sunblock on my face,” she told PeopleStyle.

“I wish I had put it on my chest too.”

The 44-year-old says it’s probably too late to reverse all the damage, but is liberal about applying SPF everywhere daily now.

Beauty experts have similar advice, especially as the chest is not immune from tell-tale signs of aging.

Zoe Foster Blake, author of Amazing Face, has long told her fans that her best bit of beauty advice is: “your face stops at your boobs”.

Blake says most clothes women wear reveal at least part of their chest, so it’s illogical to only slather expensive treatments– and sun protection–onto your face.

Helpful tips and tricks

  • Apply what you do to your face on your neck and chest area during the day and night.

  • Wear high necked tops and dresses as much as possible when the sun is out.

  • Don’t apply perfume on your chest or neck area during the day as the alcohol can increase your chances of getting sunburnt or developing pigmentation.

  • Sleep on your back.

  • Avoid boiling hot showers because they could damage the delicate skin on your chest.

It’s never too late to start.

Fashion brand throws some heavy shade at Ivanka Trump

Ivanka Trump is probably going to lie a little low today.

Ivanka Trump is probably going to lie a little low today.

The daughter of Presidential candidate Donald Trump made a recent purchase for a pair of $84 Helix Ear Cuffs from indie jewellery brand Lady Grey.

While the founders were completing her order they included a little note to show her exactly what they thought of her Republican father and everything he stands for.

They were kind enough to share their message on Instagram, and already it has gone viral due to its sassy undertones.

The handwritten note to Ivanka reads:

“Dear Ivanka,

Thank you so much for your web order! We’re happy to let you know that the proceeds of your sale have been generously donated to the American Immigration Council, the Everytown for Gun Safety Organization, and the Hillary Clinton campaign. We hope you enjoy your new Lady Grey [Helix Ear Cuff].

Best,

Jill + Sabine, Lady Grey”

“While we were flattered to receive an order from Ivanka Trump, our social and political views couldn’t be further from those of the Trump campaign,” a spokeswoman for Lady Grey told The Huffington Post.

“When we received her order, we instantly felt compelled to take the money and donate it to a few organizations that were more aligned with our ideals ― Everytown for Gun Safety, The American Immigration Council, and The Hillary Clinton Campaign.”

We wonder if we’ll be seeing Ivanka rocking these ear-cuffs anytime soon?

JonBenét Ramsey’s mother’s 911 call is in new trailer for explosive docu-series

The Case of JonBenét Ramsey will see investigators try and get answers on the unsolved murder of the child pageant queen twenty years on.

This year will mark 20-years since JonBenét Ramsey was violently murdered in her family’s basement and yet, the case is still unresolved.

Now a new docu-series, The Case of JonBenét Ramsey will see investigators revisit the death of the 6-year-old pageant queen in a bid to find answers.

In a sign of what is set to come out of the CBS production, the trailer features the chilling phone call JonBenét Ramsey’s mother Patsy made on the night of her daughter’s murder on 24 December 1996.

The new clip – which was released earlier this week – shows experts planning to further analyse Patsy’s call using new technology to strip back the audio and reveal a conversation that happened when the Ramseys thought the call had been disconnected.

The 911 operator who took the call also features in the trailer and tearfully maintains she’s never been questioned by authorities.

“Twenty years, nobody asked me,” the operator says. “I think it would have really turned the case around.”

Orlando Bloom wants to settle down with Katy Perry

The actor is reportedly heading for engagement, and would love to give son Flynn a little brother or sister…
Orlando Bloom Katy Perry

Orlando Bloom’s relationship with songstress Katy Perry has been nothing but smooth sailing in recent months, with a source close to the actor suggesting that the couple are ready to take the next step.

The loved-up pair, who were first linked after a flirtatious evening at the Golden Globes, are “not engaged yet, but seem to be heading that way,” says a source to People.

And according to the insider, the Honeymoon period is far from over, adding that Orlando “always gushes about Katy and thinks she is amazing in a million ways.”

“He would love to settle down with Katy and have more kids. He hasn’t been this serious about a girl since Miranda.”

It’s getting serious! Katy has officially met Orlando’s son, Flynn.

The friend was, of course, referring to the Pirates of the Caribbean star’s five-year-old son, Flynn, who he shares with ex-wife and supermodel, Miranda Kerr.

And although he’s keen to give his mini-me a younger brother or sister, a friend alleges that Katy is considerably more cautious to tie the knot after her heart-breaking split from Russell Brand.

“Katy’s divorce from Russell really messed her up emotionally,” says a friend.

“She’s not going to rashly make a huge commitment like marriage again unless she thinks it’s absolutely right.”

The star had her heart broken when he comedian filed for divorce in late 2011, just one year after their fairytale wedding.

For now, the Roar hitmaker is happy taking it slow, and enjoying every moment spent with the British beau – including the naked paddleboard rides.

“They’ve been getting along really well. Katy gives him space, and they’re both pretty independent,” the source says.

“They are serious about each other and their relationship.”

As for us, we cannot wait for another baby Bloom!

Watch Orlando chat about his sweet son in the video player below! Post continues…

This woman shows how tiny sample size clothing really is

Proof of the fashion industry's infatuation with thin models on the runway.

Liz Black is the creator of the website P. S. It’s Fashion and a lead plus-size fashion writer for Refinery29.

In a recent piece with You Do You titled ‘What Is Sample Size?’ she modelled sample size clothing as a way to highlight the ridiculousness of the size of the clothing. Sample size clothing worn by models on the catwalk tends to vary from a US size 0-4 which equates to a UK size 4-8.

Liz highlighted the fashion industry’s infatuation with thin models on the runway showing ‘the average woman’s body attempting to breach those sample size garments, reminiscent to how the plus-size movement is attempting to breach the fashion industry today.’

In a piece on her own website, Liz acknowledges that the fashion industry has changed since she was a teenager and that there are so many more options that exist, but that other things have remained ‘stagnant’.

She also discusses the reasons for designers using such small measurements such as feeling forced to comply to the industry standard, wanting people to see the clothes rather than the woman and for cost-cutting purposes.

The take away sentiment is, as always, that the fashion industry needs to diversify and become more inclusive.

In an interview with People, she added ‘It doesn’t mean that we have to lose that body type, and I’m not body shaming people who are naturally thin, but very often these models are being instructed to keep their bodies smaller than they would be naturally to fit into these sample sizes.’

Margot Robbie’s true blue shower routine

'Onya Margot! Just when you thought you couldn't love the Aussie actress even more...
Margot Robbie

Margot Robbie has revealed that the bright lights of Hollywood have helped nurture a brand-new beauty hack – and we all want to add it to our routine!

Chatting to Harper’s Bazaar, Margot Robbie shared that a steaming-hot beer shower is her ideal pre-bed remedy.

Margot’s discovered the wind-down method while on set of Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.

“I like to have a beer shower – a nice beer in the shower,” the Suicide Squad star confessed to the glossy mag.

Explaining, “When I did Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, I was saying, ‘Oh, my God, I can’t wait to go home,’ and Tina Fey’s costume lady was like, ‘Me too. I can’t wait to go home and have a beer shower.'”

When she’s not bathing with it, check out Margot kill beer pong… Post continues!

“I was like, ‘What’s a beer shower?’ She said she drinks an ice-cold beer in a boiling-hot bath or shower, and it made her sleep. I was like, ‘That sounds perfect!'”

“So now when I get home from work, I have a beer shower or a beer bath if I have time.”

The 26-year-old confessed that she’s “something of an insomniac,” and has to use anything from eye masks to soothing music to get her to sleep.

Judging by her impeccable complexion, we’d say something is working!

In dire times, the former Neighbours star turns to something a little more magical…

“I’m a massive Harry Potter nerd, and although I’ve read the books probably 20 times each, I read Harry Potter before bed and it helps me switch my brain off,” she said.

While Margot isn’t figuring out the best way to catch some zeds, she’s off delivering some grade-A burns to her castmates.

This week, Margot was joined by her co-star Will Smith for a BBC Radio 1 interview and the pair went head-to-head for a little game of Playground Insults.

Basically, the duo have to insult each other… And it is glorious!

Channeling her best Harley Quinn, Margot delivered jabs like: “You were the worst looking cast member in I Am Legend.”

Will, clearly shocked, clarified the limited cast, “That was me, zombies, and a dog.”

And this brilliant zinger, “You’re so old I had to Google The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, I didn’t know what it was.”

We think the girl from Ramsay Street has definitely earned a cold one! Watch the best bits from the segment in the video player below.

Evicted QLD man’s sickening revenge porn on ex-female housemate

This is appalling.

After not paying rent, Paul Lindsay Dever was evicted from his Queensland share-house by his young female housemate. However, what he did next that will make sick to your core.

The MailOnline reports that the 44-year-old man went into his housemate’s room and copied across her private sex videos before uploading them to Youtube as an act of revenge.

If that wasn’t disgusting enough, Dever then sent the link to the property’s landlord, leaving the young woman left feeling ‘dirty and embarrassed’, the Courier Mail reports.

Dever, who has a history of violent and abusive phone calls including threatening to kill a police officer in 2012, had also responded to another housemate ad on Gumtree with a graphic image of his genitalia, leaving the woman ‘traumatised’ that he knew her address and personal information.

Dever was sentenced to a total of 18 months in prison for distributing prohibited visual recordings and using a carriage service to ménage, harass or cause offence.

Our thoughts are with the victims of this horrific ordeal.

Chrissy Teigen Snapchats her stretch marks, we fall in love

The former Sports Illustrated cover girl also has a new name for stretch marks which we are lobbying all women adopt.

Chrissy Teigen has been refreshingly honest about what happens to your body after childbirth. The supermodel has shared her hilarious fake tan struggles, and now she’s Snapchatted her stretch marks because she’s a damn goddess.

On Wednesday the model, mama, social media queen and all-round legend posted a close-up of her inner thigh to Snapchat, with the caption “Lol my thighs have tributaries”.

Can we all agree to start calling stretch marks “tributaries” now? It’s so much more fun to say! It’s like “Ooh, look – I’ve got another tributary this morning. Yes!”

Chrissy and her hubby, John Legend.

It’s so refreshing to see from the 30-year-old mother-of-one.

Essentially, Chrissy is saying it’s okay to not be #flawless, and that this whole game we’re all playing pretending to be perfect has got a little of out of hand, and maybe we should all just put away the filters every now and then.

Chrissy – who is married to singer John Legend and gave birth to the couple’s first child, a daughter named Luna born in April – is not shy about sharing her body revelations with her fans.

Last year the American supermodel received praise for posting a shot of her tributaries (it’s catching on, don’t you think?) with the caption: “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!”

Yes. She’s gloriously real.

Amber Heard’s lawyers retract divorce settlement statement

The star’s legal team have retracted a statement released one day after the estranged couple reached a reported $7 million settlement.
Amber Heard Johnny Depp

It’s a classic case of ‘spoke too soon’.

Earlier this week, Amber Heard and Johnny Depp finally reached a divorce settlement of $7 million after what has undoubtedly been one of the most acrimonious splits in Hollywood history.

Shortly after this settlement was reached, Amber’s lawyers, Samantha F. Spector and Joseph Koenig, issued a statement saying that they were “pleased” with the outcome, and that her client had been “vindicated in the Court of Public Opinion.”

Hours later, the 30-year-old’s legal team retracted this statement and issued an apology to the star’s former husband, as the comments were made without Amber Heard’s approval.

No doubt Johnny will be pleased that everything is now said and done.

“The statement made today on behalf of myself and Joseph Koenig was made without the knowledge or approval of Amber Heard. The statement is untrue and we retract it, without qualification.

“My assertion that Amber Heard has been vindicated in the court of public opinion is not true. We regret the error and apologize to Johnny Depp.”

As previously reported earlier this week, Amber withdrew her request for restraining order against her 53-year-old ex-husband, while the former couple confirmed the end to their tumultuous split with a carefully-worded, joint statement.

“Our relationship was intensely passionate and at times volatile, but always bound by love. Neither party has made false accusations for financial gain.”

It continued: “There was never any intent of physical or emotional harm. Amber wishes the best for Johnny in the future. Amber will be donating financial proceeds from the divorce to a charity.”

It is not known yet just how much of the $7 million settlement will go to charity.

News of the settlement comes just days after a video allegedly showing Johnny smashing glasses in a fit of rage was leaked to the media, as well as a claim by Amber that Johnny left her a message in blood that accused her of cheating with actor Billy Bob Thornton after he sliced off the tip of his finger in anger.

Meanwhile, the Fargo has broken his silence and denied Johnny’s alleged claims Amber had an affair with him.

“Amber never cheated on Johnny with Billy Bob,” a rep for Billy Bob told E! News.
