Justin Bieber Announces New Hair Journey On Twitter

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

Justin Bieber, or his press machine, has figured out that hair is a big media hook.  Anytime a celeb wants to grab some attention they do something to their hair.  Britney shaved hers and Ashlee Simpson tried on a rainbow of hues.  Kelly Osbourne went pink.  Now the Biebster is following suit.

Recently he got a famous haircut and donated his hair to Ellen.  He popped onto Ellen’s talk show and handed her the newly shorn tresses which she then put into a special sealed glass container and put it up for auction on EBay for charity.

Justin’s tresses fetched $40,668 US for charity.  Ellen announced the amount the hair had sold for on her show.  Then she signed the seal on the glass cube holding his hair.  The cube is signed by The Biebs and Ellen.  No one would argue that it was a rousing success.

Now that the excitement of his hair auction has died down, Justin is taking on a new hair frontier.

He is going to grow his mustache.  He tweeted on Twitter “im not shaving for a month so you all can see my mustache.. im pumped” (more…)

January Jones’ Architectural SAG Updo Hairstyle With Platinum Angles And Curves

Monday, January 31st, 2011

Actress January Jones drives the fashion, hair and beauty police mad with her ability to constantly reinvent herself on every Red Carpet she steps onto with her bejeweled feet.  In many ways January is a modern version of Cinderella who has emerged from the Mad Men Carriage to be a top contender for best hair, best fashions and just about best everything else ranging from shoes and jewels to handbags and make-up.

Fashion houses like Versace Atelier kill for the opportunity for January to wear their gowns.  Although she appears to have a preference for Versace, for the 2011 SAG Awards she rocked Carolina Herrera.  Her constantly evolving array of updos, twists and retro tresses never cease to impress and work in perfect harmony with her designer gown of choice.

January Jones is sometimes compared to the blonde and beautiful actress Grace Kelly due to her lady-like glamour.

Although she recently wore a stunning red peek-a-boo gown at the 2011 Golden Globes, she changed it up for the SAG Awards by rocking a black high-necked Mermaid shaped figure hugging gown with gold details.

The demure Carolina Herrera gown showed off January’s spectacular figure. With that Carolina Herrera gown January’s celebrity hairstylist, Renato Campora had to turn her platinum blonde tresses into a work of hair art. (more…)

Pauly D Gets Naturally Curly Hair Cut Every Week

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

The January 31st issue of Us Weekly listed 25 Things You Don’t Know about Pauly D of MTV’s Jersey Shore.  The resident DJ, who is 30, is famous for spending a lot of time on his strands but the Us Weekly piece offered some interesting insights.

Pauly D said he washes his hair every day and flies home “once a week for a haircut – same guy for 14 years!”  Wow, that’s a lot of airline miles for a haircut ,but Pauly D has naturally curly tresses and everyone knows natural texture requires the skills of a hair cutting expert.

It’s no secret the handsome DJ spends lots of time on his hair.   Afterall, it shows.

Pauly D also claims to be a neat freak whose daily blowouts take 25 minutes.   Of course the daily blowouts combined with the daily shampoo sessions cut into his famous GTL time, but since Pauly also gets a manicure every other week, you know this Jersey Shore star is very well groomed.

Pauly explained he goes for his manicures because a “DJ’s hands have to look good” and his hands always look spectacular.  He didn’t mention pedicures but I bet he gets them.  He seems to really be on the ball with doing what it takes to look great.

My only regret?  Pauly D didn’t disclose the name of his haircut guru.  It makes sense.  If Pauly’s there once a week and the fans find out where and who does his impeccable cuts on his natural curls he risks walking into a madhouse.

I loved that Pauly told Us that “my favorite thing in the world is the feeling I get when I walk out and see the crowd right before I deejay.”

No wonder, with impeccable hair, nails and fashions, the man should feel great.  Kudos to Pauly D for being a great example of the importance of men’s grooming.

Justin Bieber’s $760 Haircuts Create Media Buzz

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011

One of the news stories currently buzzing on the web is about Justin Bieber’s expensive haircuts.  According to various media sources Justin gets  his hair cut twice a month at a rate of around $760 per cut.  According to insiders, that amount is just for the cut without any of the add-on items such as washing, blow drying, styling or coloring.  The Bieb’s hairdresser?  Vanessa Price who claims bragging rights for his very first iconic hairstyle introduced in 2009.

Price travels with Justin and coifs his hair for his concerts and other personal appearances.  This is a very common practice.  All major recording and performance artists travel with a hair and make-up team.

Sometimes the hair and make-up are provided by the same person. Depending on how successful or popular the star is, they may have several people who travel with them to cut, blow-dry, color, style and fluff and puff.

While some bloggers are making a big deal out of Justin paying $760 for a cut, this is actually very little compared to what Britney, Madonna, Rhianna and Beyonce pay for their hair cuts.  Many of the big celebrity stylists like Chris McMillan charge literally thousands a day to travel with their celebrity to keep their hair looking chic and photo ready.  Remember when the media went crazy over Aniston’s budget for McMillan on one of her film promotional trips to Europe?

My only comment about Justin’s monthly haircut bills is that I’m glad to see his hairstyles are changing.  I am really loving his latest hairstyle with the separation throughout the bangs.  It showcases his eyes and gives him a softer more accessible look.  Kudos to Price for her ability to keep The Bieb’s bangs looking fresh and celebrity worthy.  His hair looked fantastic at the recent 2011 Golden Globes.

If you think $760 is a lot, imagine what Price’s daily rate to travel with Biebs is.  Yep, didn’t see that one coming, did you.

Ellin LaVar Is Still The Queen Of Weaves, Extensions, Braids And Naturally Textured Hair

Monday, January 24th, 2011

Although I somehow fell through the Oprah cracks as one of her ultimate viewers, I have actually been watching the show since the beginning.  I will admit that many of the shows I focused on were related to hair and beauty topics because afterall, that’s been my focus for a long time.

(Image courtesy of Ellin LaVar – All Rights Reserved)

Recently I found a huge three ring binder stuffed to the brim with clippings and notes I had squirreled away over the past 25 years with all kinds of hair and beauty tips, notes and obscure goodies.  One one of the pages I found a note to myself about New York’s fabulous weave and hair extension expert, Ellin La Var, who has appeared on Oprah.

I popped over to Ellin’s website and sure enough, she has a video clip from one of her visits on Oprah where they discussed the fact Ellin had coiffed Oprah’s hair with a weave.   Yes, we all know that Oprah has Andre Walker as her long time show hairdresser but she obviously worked with Ellin at various points in her career and admitted to wearing weaves.

Is Oprah’s Hair A Weave Or Not A Weave?

When Oprah first joined Twitter she tweeted that her hair was not a weave.  At least at that point it wasn’t and for her trip to Australia she was spotted wearing her hair in a series of perky little ponytails.  Again, definitely not a weave. (more…)

Alex Lambert Of American Idol Tweets Of Homelessness

Thursday, January 20th, 2011

Former American Idol contestant Alex Lambert (from Dallas area) swears his tweet of homelessness was not a publicity stunt to gain fame or free publicity, but the stunt, intentional or not, is bringing Alex national attention.

Alex’s tweet sent his name soaring to the top of Twitter trends and Internet searching.  His timing was uncanny since the newest season of the Fox hit aired January 19th for the first time.  Alex Lambert, no relation to Season Eight’s Adam Lambert, was eliminated from AI in March of 2010.

In a matter of hours after the former Idol contented posted a tweet that indicated he was “crashin behind buildings and sleepin outside”, Google searches for “Alex Lambert” ranked at the top of Google`s top internet searches list, maintaining the top position for most of Wednesday morning.

Since hitting the news, multiple media sources, including Entertainment Weekly and MTV News, confirmed an “unidentified rep” for Lambert denied his claims and said he was lying on his Twitter.  Some folks are accusing Lambert of posting the tweet as a publicity stunt for fame and attention.

It will be interesting to see if Lambert’s Tweets about homelessness will help bring him back to National attention.  Will former AI judge Ellen Degeneres take pity on Alex and have him on her show?  Afterall, she has a big soft spot in her heart for anything to do with American Idol.  Stay tuned to see how Alex fares.

Julia Roberts Fought Her Curls And Shyness As A Kid Growing Up

Saturday, January 8th, 2011

Bonnie Fuller of Hollywood Life recently pointed out that A-Listers like Jen Aniston, Kate Hudson and ice princess Julia Roberts need to get fan-friendly or reap their karma.  Amen to that.

It’s a brand new wired world out there where fans are socializing with their favorite vampires, reality stars and YouTube sensations on Twitter, Facebook and similar social networking sites.

Julia Roberts Failed To Deliver Big Numbers For Eat, Pray, Love

As Bonnie wisely notes, inaccessibility by movie stars could very easily translate to box office bombs.  Case in point? Reese Witherspoon’s How Do You Know only trickled in at $25 million, but the movie cost $120 million to make.

(Image of Julia Roberts with no evidence of her naturally textured big tresses)

I personally wasn’t surprised when Julia Roberts didn’t blow the doors off the theaters with Eat, Pray, Love.  She is famous for running from some photographers or fighting with others, avoiding Red Carpet events like the plaque and being a virtual recluse.  Maybe the famous Scorpio (born October 28, 1967) has her privacy, but as Bonnie pointed out, Julia may not have her acting career much longer.

Reality Steve Dishes About Bachelor Brad

Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

Just shy of two years ago I had the great privilege of having a long phone chat with the RealitySteve.com which resulted in the blog – Who Is Reality Steve.  I have been reading Steve’s blog since he first started dishing about ABC’s The Bachelor/Bachelorette and now Bachelor Pad reality dating shows.

In early 2009 when I first talked to Steve, I confessed to being a huge fan.  Besides loving his blogs where he combines fabulous spoilers with reality truths and humor, I often quote from his observations.

As I told Steve on the phone it’s easier to just read his comprehensive blogs and get all the Bachelor/Bachelorette scoops, then to try and dig through reams of information to try and figure it out myself.

Imagine my glee when I called Steve’s phone today and he picked up.  Even better, he had time to chat and do a follow-up to my original blog.

After chatting about a lot of great Bachelor/Bachelorette/Bachelor Pad tidbits which I will share in follow-up blogs, Steve told me he will be posting his Bachelor Brad Womack 2010 spoilers either tonight (Wednesday) or by Friday at the latest. (more…)
