Shape Magazine Workout DVD’s

Shape Magazine Workout DVD’s

I think most of you can tell I am a big fan of Shape Magazine, but it’s not just their magazine that I utilize for fitness. Shape makes fabulous workout videos, and I just bought my 3rd workout DVD last week. I really like their DVD’s because they offer so many different segments in one. For example, I just bought the Shape: 20 Minute Makeover DVD. This includes a 20 minute interval training, where it has high intensity cardio segments and low intensity strength training segments, so your body is getting a complete workout. Then, it has 4 ten minute segments that target a specific zone: arms, abs, thighs, and butt. And more- it also has a bonus cardio routine for a quick, fat blasting workout. So depending on the mood I am in or if there is a specific area on my body I want to get toned up, I can choose from one of the routines. And I like the fact that they are short, but effective workouts. I don’t have a whole lot of time to devote to fitness, so quickly being able to burn calories is the best for me. I would recommend everyone to check out the DVD’s Shape has to offer and find one that works the best for you!

Heidi Montag’s Debut Album Tanks

Heidi Montag’s Debut Album Tanks

I have banned any Heidi Montag/Spencer Pratt news from my blog before for obvious reasons, but this article just made me smile. No, it’s not about her multiple plastic surgeries so she can be a “role model for other girls.” That’s disgusting. No this is on her musical talent- or lack of talent. The wanna-be celebrity sold less than 1,000 copies of her debut album Superficial in its first week of release. Usmagazine reports the total number sold is actually 658. Awesome. Montag was quoted as saying, “within the first week, we will definitely make our money back.” She also estimated that she had spent almost $2 million dollars making the album. Again- awesome.

David Hasselhoff & Daughter’s Getting Own Show

The Hoff is coming to a TV near you. David Hasselhoff recently announced his departure from America’s Got Talent, and Usmagazine is now reporting that the 57 year old actor will star in docu-drama on A&E. The show will air ten episodes also starring Hasselhoff’s daughters- Taylor-Ann, 19, and Hayley, 17- while their father tries to help them break into the entertainment industry. Hasselhoff released this statement on his new venture, “It’s the dream of every parent to be able to help their child succeed. I told the girls that I would help them open the door when they are ready, but they would have to walk through it on their own.” The show, which is still untitled, is set to air later this year.

Anna Kournikova’s Mother Arrested for Child Neglect

Anna Kournikova’s Mother Arrested for Child Neglect

Tennis star Anna Kournikova is seeing her family pushed into the spotlight- for all the wrong reasons. Anna’s mother- Alla Kournikova, was arrested on Tuesday and put in jail on charges of child neglect after leaving her 5 year old son home alone. A neighbor of Kournikova’s $2 million Palm Beach home called the police after seeing the boy “soaking wet and walking in front of his house, acting very upset.” People.com also reports the affidavit as saying the child “had jumped out of a window.” Anna’s half brother, Allen, told police he “jumped out of the second story window” and he entered the family swimming pool because his “feet hurt.” The second story roof was found to be 15 feet high, and Allen had landed onto white stones after he had jumped, causing bruising to his feet and lower back.
Where was Alla Kournikova during the time she had left her son alone? Police reports show that the 46 year old had run errands to the bank and post office and was gone for about 50 minutes. She did say that she dead bolted the door and gave Allen a cell phone, and did not take her son with her because “he did not want to go.” Kournikova, an aspiring Palm Beach socialite, was eventually released from jail on $3,000 bond for the third-degree felony.

Susan Boyle Shut Out of Brit Awards

Susan Boyle became an overnight sensation with her amazing singing talent, but her home country doesn’t seem to care. Shockingly, Boyle was passed by for the 2010 Brit Awards, not receiving any nominations for any categories. Boyle’s debut album, I Dreamed a Dream, topped both US and UK charts, but People.com is reporting that perhaps the Brits don’t think of the singer as “trendy or stylish enough.” For the category of Best British Female Solo Artist, the nominees are Bat for Lashes, Florence and the Machine, Lily Allen, Pixie Lott and Leona Lewis.
