Fergie was looking thankfully minimalist (for her) hanging out in London after Live Earth last weekend, though it looks like girlfriend may have had a bit too many celebratory cocktails. I can imagine she needs a few, however, before getting on the latest interior decoration in the house she shares with hot Josh. Fergie's man apparently had a stripper pole installed in their bedroom, but his private dancer is too shy to get on the pole until she takes some lessons. Fergalicious never struck me as the bashful type, but I guess Sheila Kelley has her newest S-Factor student. Josh is a lucky boy, though I can also imagine there are quite a few women out there who wouldn't think twice before whipping out their best moves for Josh.
Rodeo Drive got a new fancy jewelry store to attract celebrities to their big grand opening. Tara Reid continues to attempt to dress more age appropriate but as pretty as her baby blue eyes are, she is still striking out. Brooke Shields posed with Robert Procop who helped bring the London based jeweler famous for creating Princess Di's engagement ring to America. Rachel Zoe was there but she doesn't seem to be wearing any of her own summer must haves at this event. Ugly Betty star, Eric Mabius walked the red carpet and we wish we were there to ask him Buzz's 5 questions about Ugly Betty for the fall.
I didn't think it could get any hotter than what we saw of the Beckhams in W Magazine, but here are some more shots from the photoshoot. And...It Just Got Way Hotter. Interestingly enough, these photos were taken by Steven Klein, the same man who shot that controversial spread of Brad and Angelina for W two years ago. My god, they're smokin' together. I feel like I'm peeking into their intimate moments! Not only that, but inside the magazine they are totally endearing and cute. Love them. Here's highlights:
Victoria on changing America's opinion of her:“I think people are really going to see me for the first time. I think they have this impression that I’m this miserable cow who doesn’t smile. But I’m actually quite the opposite. When you’re out there, they’re trying to get pictures up your shirt, down your top. With all the flashes, it’s as much as you can do to just find your car. I’m going to try and smile more for America.”
Victoria on picking her $22 Million house in LA:“I had quite a lot of things to get my head around. What was the nicest area? I was very much like, ‘Okay, the seaside is down there, training is there, school is there, and I think Barneys is over there.’ I kind of did it like that…we didn’t want anything too huge, too fancy, too ostentatious…something quite practical for the kids. It’s a light, happy house, with a great corridor the kids are going to love when they are roller-skating.”
David on why they don't have a live in staff:“We like to lock the doors at night and wander around naked.”
David on first seeing Victoria in a Spice Girls Video:“I turned around to Gary (his teammate) and said, ‘That one there, that’s the girl I’m going to marry.’”
Cute cute, now back to those photos. Check out the full set online here and in the magazine when it hits stands July 20th. Beckham mania is just getting started!
Yesterday we told you that Nicole's request for a continuance was denied, but that decision has already been reversed and the court date has been pushed back to August 16. This turnaround seems a little fast in our opinion, especially since the date is now 11 days later than Nicole had originally asked for. We know that situations with court dates and legal matters are often changing on a day-to-day basis, but do you think Nicole is already getting special treatment?
Even Mary-Kate was in the Summer spirit showing off some leg while lugging around her fab bag in Hollywood on Monday. Plus look, she switched to iced! Now if only she would get rid of those booties and put on some (flat? gasp!) sandals. Some may not agree with wearing an oversized shirt as a dress -- but I love the low key just got out of bed look. (Fine, it's MK, she always gets a pass.) Seeing MK outside her office is all well and good, but after watching reruns of seasons 1 & 2, I'm getting super excited to see MK on Weeds when it comes back in August. Can't. Wait.
Ben Affleck is back from Hawaii, but it looks like he's not quite ready to leave vacation mode. He was rocking the bedhead and scruff combo in Pasadena yesterday. Normally this look paired with his random Gone in 60 Seconds jacket could be a little scary, but Ben saved face by flashing the photographers a smirk and a crooked smile, which makes him look totally hot. We may even start to forgive him for wearing those gross crocs while he was away.
Kate Moss was all smiles leaving the SingStar Take That Extravaganza in London. She took a casual approach to the night, opting for patent leather flats and mixed-matched blacks.
