Will you be buying Jennifer Aniston’s debut fragrance? I am not big on buying goods such as perfumes just because a celebrity slaps there name on the label and smiles for the photographs, but I make an exception with Jennifer Aniston. Not only has she been a favorite actress of mine for years, I think she is a great role model and one of the more down to earth celebrities roaming Hollywood. She’s also talked about how hands on she was during the process, from picking the scents, bottle, and name. The fragrance, which Aniston says will smell sexy and clean” and “floral, but not too flowery” will debut in the UK in June to be followed by a launch in the United States. Lolavie was the selected name, and will cost between $46-$62.
I have been reading that yogurt is a great healthy snack that I should probably start eating. I have been getting better on my snacking habits; I have substituted grapes and string cheese for candy bars and chips, but it never hurts to try something new. But there are so many yogurts out there all claiming to be the best for you, so it’s a little overwhelming looking at all the choices in the grocery aisle. The April edition of Fitness magazine helps answer a few of those questions with their Eat Right section. They highlight yogurt, and even have a ‘what to look for’ box that lists the most important factors in your selection process. The guidelines, for a 6 ounce serving of yogurt, are as follows:
100-150 calories
3.5 grams of fat or less
2 grams or less of saturated fat
At least 8 to 10 grams of protein
20 grams or less of sugar
At least 20% of your daily value of calcium
At least 20% of your daily value of vitamin D
Christina Applegate is engaged! The actress, 38, is marrying musician Martyn LeNoble, after two years of dating. A rep for the actress gave Usmagazine this statement, “The couple, who have been dating for two years, got engaged on February 14, 2010. There is no set date for the wedding at this time.” It will be the second marriage for both.
Does this mean she is going to be back on the party scene/tabloid covers? I hope not. After 14 months of dating, the relationship between Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt has ended. Hilton’s rep confirmed the split to People.com, saying, “The relationship between Paris and Doug is over. She broke up with him more than two weeks ago.”
Another long-term Hollywood couple has called it quits. Melissa and Tammy Etheridge have split after a 9 year relationship. Melissa’s rep told People.com, “Melissa and Tammy Etheridge are saddened to announce that they are now separated.” The couple exchanged vows in 2003 and have two children together- twins Miller and Johnnie Rose.
I am an avid listener of the Elvis Duran Morning Show. I listen to them every morning on my drive to work, and find them to be hysterical. I love listening to Carolina’s ‘Rage Page,’ I’m always hearing about new fashion or beauty products through her. This morning, she was talking about Toms Shoes. With every pair of shoes you purchase through Toms Shoes, Toms will donate one pair of shoes to a child in need. What’s better than giving yourself some new shoes and supporting a child at the same time? You can check out Toms website at http://www.toms.com/. Be sure to check out the ‘Our Movement’ section. In April 8th, Toms hosted ‘One Day Without Shoes,’ where people around the country went barefoot for the day to see how difficult it is not to have shoes. Even celebrities such as Kristen Bell went barefoot for a day! Be sure to purchase your next pair of shoes through Toms, and thanks to Carolina and the Elvis Duran Morning Show for bringing awareness to a great cause.
