Would You Mistake Katherine Heigl For Ashley Judd?

BellaSugar — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 12:01:26 -0700

Earlier today on Regis and Kelly, Katherine Heigl not only discussed her role in The Ugly Truth as part of her promotional rounds, but she also talked about brunette hairstyle, which she called a spontaneous decision. While most of you prefer her as a blonde, the actress, whose own mother didn't even recognize her in this light-chestnut shade, seems to be embracing her darker 'do.

"Most people just don't recognize me, which is really disconcerting, or kind of great," she added. Initially, Katherine was hesitant about going brown for fear of being confused with another brunette actress. "I had been brunette five or six years ago, and I used to get Ashley Judd a lot," she said. What do you think about the comparison? Do you see the resemblance, or is it not even close?

PopSugar — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 05:00:00 -0700

Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault happily walked down the aisle again on Saturday at Venice's opera house Teatro La Fenice. Salma looked gorgeous in a white Balenciaga wedding gown by Nicholas Ghesquiere. Valentina was a flower girl wearing a Bonpoint dress with Francois's children from his first marriage also participating in the black tie affair. They may have gotten married at a small ceremony on Valentine's Day but their glamorous second round of nuptials included about 150 of their close family and friends.

They kicked off the weekend with a masked rehearsal dinner on Friday and some of their celebrity guests wore their black and gold masks as they arrived to the wedding by boat on Saturday. Penelope Cruz wore a floor-length blue gown for the ceremony and changed into a black dress for the reception, with Javier Bardem as her date. Stuart Townsend and Charlize Theron also joined in on the festivities with Charlize transforming her dress from long to short halfway through. Lots more familiar faces were in the audience including Ed Norton, Bono, Ashley Judd and Anna Wintour. On Sunday the newlyweds had a farewell brunch after a romantic weekend of celebrating their life as husband and wife.

Jay also caught the Obamas' first dance, where his wife Beyonce brought many to tears. Rihanna stood out in her sassy gold number at the Feeding America Inauguration Charity Ball, which Courteney, David, Tobey, and Jennifer also attended.

PopSugar — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 14:30:01 -0700

Ashley Judd has been committed to international humanitarian issues for some time now, and yesterday she came before the UN to speak passionately about the human trafficking crisis. She became involved in the cause after traveling the world on her global health tour raising HIV/AIDS awareness. At the press conference, Ashley said, "I know that the unheard are helped when they are heard. I know that compassionate listening helps me, and my goal was to help the UN help them." Ashley's famous smile is especially wonderful combined with the big heart and helping hand she brings to such important and critical global issues.

Ashley Judd Speaks Up For Victims of Human Trafficking

LibertySugar — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 11:00:23 -0700

The UN General Assembly met yesterday to discuss human trafficking, an annually $32 billion illegal industry.

One star shined some light on the dark issue. Actress Ashley Judd, a board member of Population Services International, went to the UN headquarters in New York to speak about the cause she adopted after a 12-nation public health tour.

In her words to the General Assembly, Ashley explained:

I have been to 12 countries worldwide and spent a great deal of time in brothels, slums, hospices, youth drop-in centers, in both public hospitals as well as rural clinics. It is very difficult to leave behind people I know are victims of human trafficking. I defy anyone to walk out of a brothel or to walk out of an orphanage leaving those people behind. So I have been making a series of sacred promises: "I will never forget you" and "I will tell your story." I know that the unheard are helped when they are heard.

Right now about 2.5 million people face forced labor of sexual exploitation. Over 56 percent of these victims live in Asia and the Pacific. The UN estimates 1.2 million children are trafficked each year. When those with first-hand experience like Ashley share their stories, do you feel more connected to the victims and hope for a more urgent solution?

This June, American Beauty Cosmetics will launch its Summer Bouquet color story. Much like Flirt! Cosmetics (both are owned by the same company), the brand typically launches a new product or two every few months and then creates a seasonal look by blending the new products in with the old.

The inspiration for Summer Bouquet is all about florals, specifically perky pink roses. The new product for Summer is a peachy pink powder blush called Nectar Blossom. The face of the campaign is Ashley Judd, as usual, and this particular photo also doubles as an ad for its new Beloved fragrance.

For a description of each of the items in the Summer Bouquet color story, read more.

New, Beloved Rose Powder Blush in Nectar Blossom ($18) is a peachy, pink powder blush that blends easily and gives cheeks a warm, natural-looking flush.
Luxury for Lids Eyeshadow Duo in Afternoon Tea ($14.50) are two soft, matte taupe shades that can be applied all over the lids, to the crease and eyebrows.
Ultra-Easy Automatic Eyeliner in Mocha ($11) is a warm, creamy chocolate brown pencil eye liner.
Softy Shaping Mascara in Black Velvet ($11) is a rich, long-lasting jet black mascara that separates, elongates, and leaves lashes with a bit of a glossy finish.
Enduring Beauty Longwear Lipcolor in Candy Rose ($12.50) is a bright, medium-colored coral-pink, long-wearing creamy lipstick.
Pretty Glossy Luscious Lipshine in Strawberry Pop and Sugar Fizz ($12.50 each) is a high-shine, sheer lip gloss. Strawberry Fizz is a bold red shade and Sugar Fizz is a pale, cotton-candy pink color.
Fabulous Feel Liquid Lipcolor in Party Pink ($12.50) is a true, shiny, baby pink lip color that has the coverage of a lipstick and the texture of a lip gloss minus the stickiness.

BellaSugar — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 07:00:27 -0800

The lovely Ashley Judd is once again the face of the new American Beauty Champagne Pinks Collection due in stores at the end of this month. Much like the Flirt! Totally Bronze Collection, this range includes includes eight products. Three are new, and four are existing products to create a bronzed pink look.

My personal favorite of the bunch is the new Pretty Glossy Luscious Lipshine Lip Gloss in Pink Parfait. (Whew! What a mouthful.) This pale, shimmery, pinky-coral packs a lot of punch. It moisturizes like a creamy lipstick and shines like a gloss without feeling overly tacky. I've been wearing so much that it's already made it into my handbag makeup stash - now, that's love! To find out all of the prices and details about the rest of the products, read more.

New Ultra-Easy Automatic Eyeliner in Gold ($11) is a dark golden shade with a creamy texture. I suggest warming it up on your hands before applying for an even smoother and more precise application.
New Pretty Glossy Luscious Lipshine in Pink Parfait ($12.50) is a creamy pale pink lip gloss with a hint of coral and a lot of shimmer.
Two Pretty Bronze Bronzing Powders in Sun Chic and High Summer ($17.50 each) are slightly shimmery, velvet powder bronzers that can be layered to create anything from a subtle glow to a deep, golden tan.
New Luxury For Lids Eyeshadow Duo in Golden Pink ($14.50) contains a pale golden champagne shade on one side and a shimmery medium rosey pink on the other.
Enduring Beauty Longwear Lipcolor in Summer Kiss ($12.50) is a creamy, shimmery pale coral-pink shade with an opaque finish.
Luminous Liquid All Over Face Glow in Pink Glow ($15) is a pale pink liquid luminizer than can be applied to your temples, cheekbones, brow-bones or decolletage as a highlighter, or mixed in with your foundation for a natural looking radiance.
Softly Shaping Mascara in Black Velvet ($11) is a soft, glossy black mascara that separates and curls lashes.
