Although it’s been years since I’ve taken my last marketing class, I do believe this was one of the major rules of thumb:
“If you’d like to launch a new cosmetic line, don’t be seen with a skin condition.”
Just last week, we reported that singer Amy Winehouse was in the process of starting her own clothing and makeup lines. Now I’m wondering if she should just stick the former.
In recent days, the singer has been spotted with some mysterious lumps on her face. After some speculated that she had been in a scuffle, Winehouse’s rep has set the record straight: she has impetigo. What is impetigo? Here is the definition supplied by Dictionary.com:
“A contagious skin disease, esp. of children, usually caused by streptococcal bacteria, marked by a superficial pustular eruption, particularly on the face.”
I think I saw the word ‘pus’ in there.
Despite her contagious state, Amy hasn’t stopped doing what she needs to do. She recently braved the cameras to visit her incarcerated honey, Blake Fielder-Civil.

Apparently Simon Cowell isn’t just frank when it comes down to doling criticism; he’s pretty open when it comes to the details of his own life.
The American Idol judge readily admitted to UK’s Glamour that he has subjected his face to the Botox needle. “To me, Botox is no more unusual than toothpaste. It works, you do it once a year – who cares.” (Why am I envisioning Ryan Seacrest sitting right there next to him when he does it?)
Cowell also revealed that he owes about an inch of his frame to platform heels.
Although the injection news doesn’t really surprise me, I must admit – I find Simon’s vanity issues to be quite interesting. If he really didn’t want people to focus on any unsightly wrinkles, maybe he could should focus on redesigning a less boxy haircut? (What is up with the part down the middle anyway?) Then again – it’s not like people are looking at that part of his body anyway. I, for one, still can’t peel my eyes away from his man boobs.

Unless fallen icon Michael Jackson can pay off a $24.5 million loan by March 19th, the infamous Neverland Ranch will be auctioned off to the public.
On top of that, it’s not just the house that’s being auctioned off—it’s everything in and on the property, according to FOXNews.com. They report that Jackson may even let the Santa Barbara estate be sold, as he has not lived there for nearly three years.
Although Britney Spears has been giving Michael competition for the Most Mentally Unstable Celebrity Award, Jackson is still quite the oddball who just might fight at the very end to keep his beloved ranch. Then again, it could very well go in the opposite direction by falling into the hands of a very crazed fan. Some people are even speculating that it may even be best to leave as a museum, since Jackson’s international fan base is still very strong.

While Jessica Simpson is still trying to figure out her latest relationship with quarterback Tony Romo, sister Ashlee Simpson seems to be sailing along in her love life.
Or so her promise ring tells her.
The singer recently revealed that boyfriend Pete Wentz was the person behind her new piece of jewelry. Does this mean an engagement will soon be coming? Who knows? As Ashlee put it, “It just means that he hasn’t asked my dad yet.” (I’d do my best to avoid Joe Simpson as well.)
Does anyone want to let Ashlee know that promise rings are usually given by men are who simply stalling for time?
Then again, maybe they’re both stalling for time. It’d just be awful if she found happiness before her big sis did.

I have to admit, I really know nothing about Brooke Hogan. (I mean aside from the fact that she’s a joke of a singer and – fashionably speaking – the white version of Bai Ling.) Up until today, I’ve remained completely indifferent toward her.
But now? I actually feel a bit sorry for her.
It was probably tough enough for the girl to see her parents – Hulk and Linda Hogan – go through a divorce. Now comes news of the most heinous kind: Her dad was sleeping with one her best friends.
Granted, this friend wasn’t exactly Brooke’s age (which would have made it all kinds of wrong), but that doesn’t lessen the ick factor. According to the National Enquirer, the woman in question (33-year-old Christiane Plante) was someone who apparently worked with the aspiring musician on her last album.

Here’s a tidbit that almost seems too ridiculous to be true: Amy Winehouse is coming out with her own makeup and clothing lines.
Seriously.
According to The Sun, the singer will soon be speaking to fashion and cosmetic execs about this new financial venture. If wannabes are going to (inexplicably) imitate her, why not make them pay to do it? Possible items linked to Winehouse’s name include hairspray (duh), scarves (to keep the bees in the hive), perfume (to mask the unwashed scent) and eyeliner (double duh).
Products not included? Brushes, shampoo, tattoos, crack pipes and disintegrating ballerina flats.

Just when I thought Drew Barrymore had finally found someone to grow old with – she had to go and screw it all up. She actually started talking about it.
Now, it’s not like I’m expecting her to deny her relationship with Justin Long – that would be like Jennifer Lopez skirting questions about her pregnancy. But we all know how it goes. The minute one starts talking about their new boyfriend publicly, an untimely breakup usually follows. And it’s not like Barrymore has had much luck when it comes to significant others. Let’s name just a few: first hubby Jeremy Thomas, second hubby Tom Green, Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti, director Spike Jonze and Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson.
So after viewing her recent string of mushy photos with Long, I was really hoping Barrymore would finally get the whole love thing figured out. Who knows? Maybe she still could.

Although the Academy Award nominees were receiving the brunt of yesterday’s red carpet focus, my eyes were actually fixated on someone’s significant other.
It’s been a long time since Rebecca Miller (Regarding Henry), Daniel Day-Lewis‘ wife, last participated in the acting scene. Nonetheless, the writer/director is still involved with Hollywood. In other words – I figured she was fair game.
Here is, in my eyes, last night’s worst fashion victim:
Huge blue-jeweled brooch coupled with red bows = woman in need of a stylist.

For me, award season isn’t about who walks away with a statuette – it’s about what they’re wearing when they’re doing it. Who looked great? Who should have stayed home? And who stole the show away from the actual show? That’s right – it’s time for the Oscars red carpet round up.
Pregnant Jessica Alba arrived on the red carpet in a dark maroon, empress-cut waisted dress that gave her baby bump plenty of room. Everything was okay but the top of the dress, which exploded in a profusion of feathers that made her gown look less like couture and more like curtains haphazardly wrapped around her body.
Keri Russell wore a double-stranded necklace that somehow didn’t complement her shell-colored ball gown. The color wasn’t right for Keri, and the unembellished look didn’t quite reach the elegant look Russell was no doubt going for.

After several weeks (almost eight) without seeing her sons, Britney Spears finally got to visit with Sean and Jayden Saturday morning. The court-monitored visit began around 9 am and went on till 12. According to rumors, both boys were smiling when they left. Take that whichever way you like.
A security guard working for Kevin Federline was also on the scene, as was Brit’s father, Jamie Spears. (Federline currently has sole custody of both kids.) Brit has been able to speak with the boys by phone, but one source says such calls are terribly rare.
