Celebs and the Perfumes They Created
It looks like creating a perfume is a really profitable business. Every celebrity has his or her fan base and in many cases people buy the perfume even though they might not like the smell of it, just because it has been created by their favorite star.
White Diamonds
This is one of the best-selling perfumes on the market. It is a well-known fact that Elizabeth Taylor was a rich woman and a part of this money came from her films, investments in art and real estate, but also a considerable chunk of it came from the successful line of perfumes. We can expect this line to continue to have success in the future.
Driven
This perfume has been created by Derek Jeter and it can be found at Avon. The perfume has been presented in 2006 and people have been buying it ever since. The advantage is that it isn’t very expensive, a bottle costs only $20, and according to Avon the smell is a mixture of zesty citrus and exotic wood.
Amy Winehouse – The Name Goes to Club 27, the Fortune to Help Drug Addicts
She died at 27, a young death as she always said she would. Although the media crucifying her after the miserable failure of her last tour attempt, the newspapers were unexpectedly civil about her death.
She simply went to bed and never woke up. Fans suspected her of the worse but it seems she was neither drunk nor drugged when she passed away.
The latest rumors even say that she might have experienced a body failure due to alcohol withdrawal because the rehab period she was going through was too rough.
The truth is after July 23rd, Amy simply became a memory – the memory of a troubled girl, with a divine, out of the world voice and a talent that R&B and soul music will not encounter very soon.
She wrote cool songs, sang for millions of pounds, and her rebellious act kept the tabloids in bread year after year.

Good Bye Harry Potter – How a Famous Story Comes to an End
With the last Harry Potter movie hitting the theaters, there is a lot of nostalgia that one will never be able to watch such a magnificent crew come together to perform their magic.
The premier of The Deathly Hallows Part 2 was graced by the entire crew of the movie, the author J.K. Rowling and many other prominent celebrities.
Emma hosted the event dressed in a beautiful Oscar de la Renta tulle gown. The sleeveless gown had an embroidered bodice and a full skirt. The author too walked the red carpet in an Oscar creation and looked resplendent in a green silk gown. It had a sweetheart neckline and beautiful pink carnation motif. The young men from the cast too looked dapper in their finery.
Princesses Cry Too – Is It Royal Love Too Much to Bear?
Princess Charlene of Monaco shed tears soon after her wedding to Prince Albert of Monaco. Ever since then speculations have been rife about the emotions behind these uninvited guests. Were they tears of joy or of sadness is the question asked by so many public voices.
The couple had a glittering religious ceremony a day after their civil marriage. Charlene wore a stunning boat neck gown that was studded with 20000 mother of pearl teardrops and 40,000 of Swarovski crystals.
The princes appeared calm during the catholic ceremony and later the couple drove to the St Devote shrine.
In keeping with the Monegasque traditions, the bride leaves her bouquet at the altar here. During their visit to the shrine, a mother-daughter duo sang a beautiful dedication to the Virgin Mary.
It is believed that at this point the Olympiad swimmer was seen wiping away a few tears and the Prince was seen comforting her.
Game of Thrones vs. True Blood – The HBO Fight to Crush Showtime
Are the two esteemed TV show producers in a battle? Of course they are. With so many crazy fans waiting for both True Blood and Game of Thrones to show at Comic Con there is no wonder that we can feel something in the air.
The pain of the TV lovers of seeing Game of Thrones ending its Season one with only 10 episodes was slightly tamed by the impressive number of views the debut of the Season 4 from True blood registered.
Had HBO hit the jackpot leaving behind cynical touches and going all fantastic for the sake of public’s craze for picturesque heroics? The answer is yes.
Showtime and its loved masterpieces that put before the public sex – Californication, drugs – Weeds and murder – Dexter, has something to fear.
Amy and European Touring A.K.A Disaster
Do you like “Rehab”? Very few people don’t. The slightly raw voice that made Amy Winehouse famous was certainly the main reason we remember the cool lyrics and the jazz meets blues song.
Without a doubt she is unique, but like so many other wild spirits with life ruined by booze and drugs, she is an accident waiting to happen.
Amy is famous. Compared with Lady Gaga as need for public attention is concerned, the British singer is definitely an example of being famous rather for the scandal than for the amazing talent she used to make a living with.
She may not be a beauty but her beehive hairstyle made quite a furor as a trend. Also her cat eye makeup served as an inspiration.
In spite of being a negative example for the youth, so many young adults have fallen in love with her nonconformist life.
Top 10 Celebrity Engagements That Did Not Make It to the Wedding Day
Falling in and out of love is something natural, but it is interesting to observe that it happens more often in the world of stars than in the real world. Here are some examples of couples that seemed to have made a promise to each other but ended up walking separate paths:
1. Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris
Not so long ago the news hit the world: there will be no wedding of these two oh-so-well known people.
2. Ginnifer Goodwin and Joey Kern
They have gotten engaged in December last year, but it seems like they didn’t really like the idea of spending the rest of their life together and they have broken up in May.
3. Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Pitt
They met in 1995 at the set of a movie but they have broken up after dating for about two and a half years.
Posh vs. Bikini Body – Hottest Celebrity Couples of Summer 2011
Hollywood has its bad habit of making charts. We can say that this happens mostly because the public screams for them and even more, because we need them to dictate our taste in celebrities.
Celebrity couples are surely lovable and seeing them sort of sets an example for us. If some couples sparkle when on the red carpet, some pairs are taking our breath away with their bikini bodies.
Let’s see which are the hottest combinations of babe and hunk that will conquer the public’s eyes this hot summer:
1. Jessica Alba and Cash Warren – Twitter meets cardio
She might be a hot babe but sticking to her gym routine is what hides behind her fit looks. He, on the other hand, is just happy to cheer on his wife on Twitter but we cannot deny that he is a dream giver too. Looks like communication and confidence in each other contributes to the hot factor.
Prequels vs. Sequels or the Hollywood’s Loss of Creativity
The movie business has accustomed us with blockbusters and it got used to movies cashing huge flow of money because of the intriguing topic, cool theme, and spectacular heroes.
But what do you do in a year when you ran out of possibilities, when the Marvel hero type is overdone, the vampire trend tends to expire? What happens when a trilogy is no longer enough to exploit a movie subject? The answer is: you create sequels and why not prequels.
This is how the general public has the privilege to witness a 2011 summer with an unprecedented number of sequels covering all movie genders and using the spirit of blockbuster past to promote the “should be, would be” success of tomorrow.
So far Harry Potter franchise is going strong feeding the need to gloom and blues of the modern teenagers and Twilight – Breaking dawn is keeping the fans breathless with expectation.
