Rewind: This Week's Buzz

BuzzSugar — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 07:00:00 -0800

In case you haven't heard, a little movie called New Moon came out this week. I showed you where you can find them next, and I gave you my review of the movie, quizzed you on the book, as well as an exclusive interview with Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene.
Robert Pattinson continues to make non-Twilight waves at the movies: the trailer for his drama Remember Me debuted, and news that Uma Thurman has been cast as his love interest in Bel Ami surfaced.
This week was a trailer treasure trove: there was Nicholas Sparks adaptation and Miley Cyrus vehicle The Last Song, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Jeff Bridge's surefire Oscar bait Crazy Heart, and Edward Norton taking on a dual role in Leaves of Grass.
At least you'll save on tissues: Oprah announced that her talk show will go off the air in 2011.
I interviewed some of the funniest men in prime time: Eric Stonestreet gave me the scoop on Modern Family, while Joel McHale and Ken Jeong bantered about Community.
The reality TV winners were crowned! Irina ruled Project Runway, and Nicole is America's Next Top Model.
The holidays are here! I gave you a sneak peek of holiday episodes as well as more gift guide suggestions.

America's Next Top Model Quiz: "America's Next Top Model Is..."

BuzzSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 08:15:56 -0800

The moment we've all been waiting for has finally arrived: I've been gearing up with my America's Next Top Model quizzes for months, and Bella has been getting in on the excitement with her ANTM faceoff game - and now we finally have our Cycle 13 winner! (Not to mention the first petite champ.) Cue the drumroll and take this one last test to judge your knowledge from the finale.

And afterward, I'm curious to hear how you felt about this season overall. The competition wasn't as stiff as I had hoped, and I would've liked a few more solid contenders for the No. 1 spot - but we definitely got a mix of some fun personalities. (Laura and Jennifer immediately come to mind.) Weigh in on the cycle - and the final winner - in the comments. Or just click on over to the America's Next Top Model group in the BuzzSugar Community!

ANTM Beauty Quiz: "America's Next Top Model Is..."

BellaSugar — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 11:00:00 -0800

It's official: Nicole Fox is America's Next Top Model. Contain your thrill! OK, while this finale wasn't the most suspenseful ever, it was nice to see that two sweet and semi-geeky girls made it to the end, right? As my short-legged cat Milo and I watched the episode, we had mixed emotions. This may be the first time that the winner had more viability as a model, and Nicole could pick up some edgier gigs. Still, I couldn't help but want to hug Laura, who clearly was crushed by being the runner-up. This episode earns just a two-Milo rating. And while ANTM will always be a guilty pleasure, this cycle came up a little, well, short. Do you agree? Take my trivia quiz (and Buzz's, too) and tell me what you think.

Does "Supermodel" Mean Anything Anymore?

BellaSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 09:01:10 -0800

We all know the supermodels by their first names: Naomi. Linda. Christy. Heidi. Gisele. Whitney.

Wait, Whitney? Yep, Whitney Thompson - as in the winner of America's Next Top Model. She's launching her own line of handmade jewelry and candles, calling it Supermodel. "I've tried to make my collection real," she told First Coast News. "It's stuff that I love and I would wear and I'm a supermodel so I was thinking, 'Hey! Supermodel.'"

While I love Top Model and hope that Whitney's endeavor goes well, none of the show's winners are exactly household names in the way that Cindy Crawford is. Then again, neither are the most popular runway models - just try asking a random dude who Jessica Stam or Raquel Zimmerman are. So maybe Claudia Schiffer is right when she says that the age of the supermodel is long over. If it is, do you think it matters?

Model of the Week: Yoanna House

BellaSugar — Wed, 08 Aug 2007 08:00:00 -0700

We are so excited to bring back Model of the Week! This time, we take a closer look at American model Yoanna House. Yoanna was born on April 9, 1980 in Jacksonville, Florida. She can credit her amazing looks from her Mexican mother and her Canadian father. (She is also very close to her grandmother-who's actually the one who got her interested in fashion and modeling!)

After losing 50 lbs, Yoanna decided to try out for America's Next Top Model, and her big break in the industry was winning season two! Her prizes included a cover of the Sephora catalog, a contract with IMG and a photo spread for Jane magazine. Since then, she has modeled around the world and is the host of "The Look for Less" on the Style Network.

Other Top Model players that have been featured as Models of the Week are "Holland's Next Top Model" host Yfke Sturm and Caridee English, the winner of "America's Next Top Model" season seven.

What is your secret to beautiful skin and hair?
For beautiful skin, I've come to the conclusion that less is more! I've quit wasting time and spending bundles of cash on super fancy and complicated regimens. I keep my beauty regimen simple with a light cleansing gel, Lancôme Microdermabrasion Scrubs once a week, alcohol-free toner and vitamin C organic moisturizer. I book facials sporadically to get extractions and I do mini peels at home. For beautiful hair, I maintain shine by using deep conditioners. Also, I get blowouts twice a week.

What is the one product that you can't live without?
The product I absolutely love is mascara!

What is your guilty pleasure?
Enjoying a vegan oatmeal cookie from my favorite vegan bakery. I love French and Spanish Vogue and shopping for vintage clothes with my sister Alex. I especially love vintage YSL and Chanel pieces.

What are your favorite drugstore products?
L'Oreal Sublime Bronzer Self-Tanning Lotion, Pantene Pro-V Serum, Pantene Detangler Light Spray Conditioner, Mason Pearson Brushes and Mentadent whitening toothpaste, individual false eyelashes for nights out on the town, black mascara, Neutrogena Micro Scrubs and clear lip gloss with a little bit of sparkle.

Happiness is...
Driving in my car-I just got a shiny silver Mercedes station wagon-blaring old classics like Guns 'N Roses' "November Rain" or John Lennon's "Instant Karma," singing at the top of my lungs with my best friend and manager and celebrating mass in our favorite cathedral downtown. Afterwards, going out for brunch and shopping for antiques and vintage clothing.

Where Are They Now? America's Next Top Models

FabSugar — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 12:00:22 -0800

I always wondered if America's Next Top Model really gives the amateur contestants the exposure they need to get modeling jobs after their reality glory days are over. Judging from these photos, it looks like it does! How credible and desirable the jobs are is a whole different story. The important thing is that they're working, making money, and getting some exposure, right?

CariDee English, winner of Season 7, is busy partying and acting these days. She even made an appearance on Gossip Girl. Nik from Season 5 is working the runways these days, while Season 5 winner Nicole Linkletter is showing off clothes for SoLowStyle.com. Jade from Season 6 is currently the face of Apple Bottom Jeans by Nelly, and the latest winner Jaslene Gonzalez is in ads for Lot 29. Each girl has found her niche in a different place, but one thing they have in common is that they're workin' it.

Bang Bangs for Taylor

BellaSugarUK — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 10:00:00 -0700

Gossip Girl actress Taylor Momsen created quite a stir as she showed off her new fringe at the Chris Benz show at New York Fashion Week, yesterday. The choppy bleach blonde style had a rock chick edge with rough layers and an almost mullet-esque feel to it. Taylor sensibly offset her cutting-edge hair do with a more glamorous gold satin dress that showed off her perfect, almost translucent skin.

With Victoria Beckham unveiling a new short, spiky crop at Fashion Week, and America's Next Top Model winner CariDee English recently getting a fringe cut, it certainly seems that one way to keep the papparrazi interested is to go for the chop.

As Kate Moss knew only too well when she sported this look earlier in the year – a long fringe that falls in your eyes gives you a mysterious, sultry appearance, making this a super-sexy, as well as on-trend look for Taylor. Thick fringe also draws attention to your nose and mouth, which is not so great if you have a large nose, but if like Taylor, yours is button cute then it works well. I love how Taylor has complemented the vanilla blonde shade in her hair with natural makeup and rose pink lip colour. Now we have something to gossip about.

Which Versace Gown Was Your Favorite on the America's Next Top Model Finale?

FabSugar — Fri, 16 May 2008 07:00:22 -0700

I don't want to give too much away, but I was quite surprised by the judges' decision on America's Next Top Model finale show. If you want to know the winner, refer to BuzzSugar. Here, let's focus on what's most important: the Versace gowns Donatella handpicked for the runway show. They were all beauties and I have to say, Anya and Whitney wore them better than well. But is it me or did Whitney get the more eye-catching dresses? Still, Anya dazzled in her metallic number, as did Whitney in her pink. Both frocks matched the girls' modeling personalities, but out of the four, which Versace gown was your favorite?

Do You Prefer CariDee English With or Without Bangs?

BellaSugar — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 11:00:21 -0700

One of my favorite bubbly and beautiful America's Next Top Model winners, CariDee English debuted her new blunt-cut fringe yesterday at The Power of Paws Launch Party in New York. CariDee has always had a few face framing layers, but nothing quite this dramatic. I love this sophisticated and edgy look - how do you feel about it?
