Jessica Simpson Interesting Facts

Jessica Simpson loves Louis Vuitton and was ecstatic to buy new toy dog, Daisy, in 2004, because the brand began making dog carriers.

Jessica is being sued for almost $317 million by U.S. clothing company “Tarrant Apparel Group” for failing to promote its labels - JS by Jessica Simpson and Princy - despite signing a three-year agreement with them in 2004.



Jessica Simpson Biography

Born on July 10, 1980, to parents Joe and Tina in Abilene, Texas, Jessica Ann Simpson began developing her vocal skills as a child at the local Baptist church, where her father was the youth minister.

By the time she was 12 years old, Jessica was ready to take her fame to the next level and auditioned to be part of The Mickey Mouse Club. Although she made it to the finals, Jessica wasn’t selected to become a member.

But that would not deter her; Jessica joined a church camp and was discovered by a small Christian music label who immediately signed Jessica to a record deal in 1995. Jessica would spend the next three years putting the album together but before she could get things off the ground, the label went bust and Jessica was left right back where she started.

Luckily, her grandmother decided that she would fund the album and so Jessica dropped out of J.J. Pearce High School in her senior year to promote her demo album (she later got her GED).

With her father by her side, Jessica joined the Christian Music Circuit, alongside Kirk Franklin and CeCe Winans, and would peddle her album after every performance.

Jessica Simpson gives Sweet Kisses

Eventually, bigwig Tommy Mottola got hold of a copy of Jessica’s album and immediately took notice of her marketability as a pop singer and quickly signed her to record deal in 1998.

After signing with Columbia Records, Jessica released Sweet Kisses in November 1999, and the album garnered three huge hit singles: “I Wanna Love You Forever,” “I Think I’m In Love” and “Where You Are.” The album was certified twice platinum and Jessica was slowly becoming a household name.

Jessica Simpson remained a virgin

Proud to be a virgin and very public about it, Jessica began dating 98 Degrees frontman Nick Lachey, in the summer of 1999. The couple would break up in 2001, at the time of Jessica’s second album release, Irresistible.

While her second effort didn’t do nearly as well as her first, it was certified gold and spawned the hits “Irresistible” and “A Little Bit.”

Jessica and Nick in Newlyweds

Jessica and Nick would reunite once again and by October 2002, the two were married and set to star in an MTV reality series that chronicled their first year of marriage entitled Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica.

Jessica set her third album’s release to coincide with the start of the series. In This Skin was certified three times platinum and featured a cover of Berlin’s hit “Take My Breath Away.”

Before wrapping up the show in 2005, Jessica and Nick received a People’s Choice Award for Favorite Reality Show. But Jessica face would not be gone for long; she was set for movie stardom.

Jessica in Dukes of Hazzard

In the summer of 2005, Jessica showed off her assets as Daisy Duke in the big screen version of Dukes of Hazzard, costarring Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott. The film was No. 1 at the U.S. Box Office in its first week of release, but quickly faded from memory and was heavily panned by critics.

But Jessica managed to make her mark as a singer once again, recording a single for the soundtrack. “These Boots Were Made for Walkin’” a cover of the Nancy Sinatra hit in the late ‘60s, was coupled with a very sexy music video that showed off all of Jessica’s hard work at the gym.

Jessica divorces Nick Lachey

While rumors were running rampant for months that Nick and Jessica’s marriage was in trouble, it wasn’t until November 2005 that the couple announced their separation.

The divorce was final in June 2006, and while Nick began a serious relationship with model Vanessa Minnillo, only rumors would swirl about who Jessica was dating.

Jessica releases A Public Affair

As Jessica prepared to head back to the music studio to put together her fourth album, Columbia shifted her away from its label and onto Epic Records instead. A Public Affair was not well received by the public and debuted at No. 5 in its first week of release.

Meanwhile, Jessica headed back to film and this time starred alongside comedian Dane Cook in Employee of the Month. The film didn’t fare well at the box office and yet another movie starring Jessica Simpson was panned by critics.

Jessica Simpson as Tess McGill

Despite a tumultuous 2006, Jessica was looking ahead to a successful 2007, starring as Tess McGill (a role undertaken by Melanie Griffith in 1988’s Working Girl) in Blonde Ambition alongside Luke Wilson, which only had a limited release, and 2008’s Major Movie Star. Add to that the fact that she decided to go the country music route and released Do You Know, stating that country music was always her calling.

On the personal front, Jessica was dating John Mayer, but is currently in a serious relationship with footballer Tony Romo.

Haircare Tips: How to deal with Dandruff

No matter how good is your hairstyle, you will still have some issue bothering you, such as Dandruff. So today I am going to put some effort how how we can deal with dandruff. :)

Dandruff refers to the flaking scalp, which falls like snow flakes and sometimes settles on one’s shoulders, face, eyebrows and clothes. In the case of excessive formation of scales on the scalp there is irritating condition associated with bacteria. Dandruff is generally believed to be infections that can spread by the use of common towels, combs, soaps and hairbrushes. There are two types of dandruff:

• Dry dandruff
• Waxy dandruff

An itchy scalp characterizes dry dandruff and small white scales are usually attached to the scalp or are loosely scattered in the hair. The waxy dandruff occurs when the scaliness of the epidermis is mixed with sebum, which causes it to stick to the scalp in patches.

Symptoms

Whenever the hair is brushed or rubbed the scaliness increases. It may also appear as lumps or crusts on the scalp. There is itching and sometimes the skin turns red due to excessive scratching.

Causes

The various contributing factors in the cause of dandruff are:

· Impairment of general health
· Poor nutrition
· Deficiency of zinc
· Fungus (malassezia furfur)
· Oily scalps
· Food allergies
· Excessive perspiration
· Stress
· Yeast infections
· High use of alkaline soaps and shampoos
· Exposure to dust
· Dry and cold weathers

Treatment

1. Hot steam bath is highly beneficial for the hair and scalp. Massage hot oil and wrap a hot damp towel on the head for sometime.
2. Immerse peels of lemon in coconut oil for 8-10 days in sunshine. Now sieve and apply in the hair. Hair will become free of dandruff.
3. Hot oil therapy is the best method to cure dandruff. Massage hot oil into the scalp at bedtime. Next morning an hour before the bath, rub lemon juice mixed with cosmetic vinegar into the scalp with cotton wool. Wash your hair properly and as a last rinse use the juice of one lemon in a cup of hot water. Continue this treatment once or twice a week for three months.
4. Mix two tablespoons of cosmetic vinegar and six tablespoons of hot water. Dab this with cotton on the scalp and leave it overnight, next morning wash the hair with a shampoo.

7. Massage your scalp with the mixture of olive oil and almond oil; leave it for five minutes after you feel the burning sensation. Rinse properly for a dandruff free hair.
8. Soak two tablespoons of fenugreek seeds in water overnight. Grind the softened seeds in the morning, apply this paste on the scalp and leave it for half an hour. Then wash you hair with ritha solution or shikakai
9. Cider vinegar added to the final rinsing water after shampooing also helps to prevent dandruff.
10. Exposure of the head to the rays of the sun is also useful measure in the treatment of dandruff.
11. Warm 300 grams of coconut oil with 3 grams of black pepper. When it starts boiling stop heating, sieve with a fine cloth and keep in a bottle. Massage with fingertips in the night gently.
12. The use of a teaspoon of fresh limejuice for the last rinse while washing hair in highly beneficial. It leaves the hair glowing and also removes stickiness and prevents dandruff.

15. Rub the juice of snake gourd on the scalp for the treatment of dandruff.
16. Massage one’s hair for half an hour with curd which has been left open for 3 days or with few drops of lime juice mixed with amla every night before going to bed.
17. Application of processed henna once in 15 days helps to prevent dandruff. Boil equal amounts of amla and shikakai powder in water and allow it to cool. Now mix henna powder, very small amount of fenugreek and roasted clove powder, a little lemon juice and egg.

Citrus fruits, bananas, dried or tinned fruits should not be taken. Emphasis should be on raw foods especially fresh fruits and vegetables, sprouted seeds, raw nuts and whole grain cereals.

Daniel Powter Interesting Facts

Daniel Powter’s favorite author is Raymond Carver.

When Daniel Powter was young, he was in a terrible car accident that left a prominent scar on his head. He wears beanie hats to keep it covered.



Daniel Powter Biography

Born on February 21, 1971, in Vernon, British Columbia, Canada, by age 4, Daniel Powter was already playing the violin to accompany his mom, who was a professional pianist.

When he was still quite young, Daniel was in a terrible car accident that left him with a deep scar on his head. It was at this point that Daniel began wearing hats to cover his head (it is now his trademark).

Daniel Powter is dyslexic

But at 12 years of age, when two bullies beat Daniel up because he was carrying a violin case with him after he played at a talent show in grade school, he decided to give up the instrument. But it wasn’t due to this incident alone; Daniel is dyslexic and his music teacher kept pointing out that his music sheets were upside down.

When Daniel turned 15, he opted to follow in his mother’s footsteps and took up the piano, which he enjoyed playing very much because it gave him the ability to play multiple notes at once.

When he was a senior in high school, Daniel put together a band, but unfortunately, performing in front of a live audience terrified him to the extent that he had to sing with his back to the crowd. It wouldn’t take long before Daniel began to enjoy performing, however, and by his second gig, he was feeling more comfortable as a performer.

In 1989, Powter began attending Grant MacEwan College in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, but his dyslexia issues began to surface again and he would receive Fs for his inability to read correctly. So by his sophomore year, Powter dropped out of school and found his own way to make his music career a success.

Powter works with Jeff Dawson

Powter moved back to Vancouver and ended up meeting collaborator Jeff Dawson, and the two worked on writing songs and producing music. After the two put together a demo tape and began sending it off to record executives, Daniel Powter was invited to New York to audition.

Unfortunately for him, Powter was still nervous about performing in front of an audience and choked in front of the record executives, which left him back where he started. So Powter returned to Vancouver and continued to write songs.

Lucky for Powter, music manager Gary Stamler liked his music so much that he sent his demo tape to Tom Whalley, Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Records, which landed Powter the chance to meet with him in Los Angeles.

Daniel Powter has a Bad Day

Soon after, Powter chose to have Mitchell Froom produce his debut effort and, in 2005, his self-titled album was released in Europe, because his first single release “Bad Day” was selected for an ad campaign there.

The single did really well in Europe, hitting No. 1 in Germany and France, taking the No. 2 spot in the UK, and hitting up the No. 3 spot in France.

Soon after, the album was released in North America and again, the single reached No. 1 in both the U.S. and Canada, and in April 2006, Powter won a Juno Award (a Canadian Grammy equivalent) for Best New Artist. His single “Bad Day” was even used on American Idol (season 5) whenever contestants got voted off the shoe. Powter performed the song at the end of the season.

Powter releases Under The Radar

After completing his tour throughout Europe in 2006, Powter returned to writing more music to put together his sophomore album, Under The Radar, which was released in 2008.

Full Lips - 7 Ways To Get The Look

By Danielle Lemay

Most of us aren’t blessed with full lips like Angelina Jolie’s, nor would most of us want them (I don’t know about you, but they would completely take over my face). Nevertheless, considering that lip size has been linked to sexual attraction, it’s always good to have that fuller lips look going for you.

Of course, you don’t want to look like you just stepped out of a lip-injection party, either. So here’s how to achieve full lips without needles… or ass fat.

Invest in a high quality lip balm
Balm, unlike gloss, is used to help turn your lips into healthy, full lips by treating cracks and peeling. Apply it to your lips and make sure to dab it with a tissue afterwards, just in case you’re anything like me and lob the stuff on like it was a snack.

Suggested brands:
Burt's Bees Beeswax
Fresh Sugar Lip Balm (with SPF 15)
Benefit Lipscription
NARS’ Lip Therapy

Use a lip liner
I know, I know, when you hear the words “lip liner” you immediately imagine old The Jenny Jones Show episodes where she had on those rebellious Latina girls with dark brown lip liner and some light colored lipstick, which essentially made them look like they had mustaches.

But I’m not talking about using a lip liner that can double as a mustache tracer; the lip liner you want to invest in blends with your lip color. For example, if your lips have a naturally pink hue, you would purchase, you guessed it, a pink-hued lip liner.

Your objective, when using lip liner, is to define your lips. So don’t draw a new pair or make a crooked line. Simply shape the outline of your newly full lips and fix any tiny asymmetries.

(Note: Remember to purchase an appropriate-sized sharpener to go with your new lip pencil.)

Suggested brands:
NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil
Givenchy Lip Lip Lip! Liner
Stila Lip Pencil

Apply some gloss
You knew this was coming. While shine is not cool on other parts of your face, it is so good for your lips’ image. Not only does a lip gloss make your lips look incredibly kissable, it manages to add a fullness effect that your lips would not otherwise have.

Note that if you purchase a gloss, chances are that your long strands of hair will get stuck to your lips when the wind blows said strands onto your lips. But hey, no one said that having full lips was a simple task.

Suggested brands:
Dior Addict Ultra Gloss
Du Wop Lip Venom
Fusion Beauty LipFusion Lip Plump

Add a dash of white shimmer
You may have been doing the three aforementioned steps for ages and are thinking, Hey, wait a minute, she didn’t tell me anything I didn’t already know. But did you know that adding a touch of white shimmer to your lips can make the difference between nice lips and kissable, full lips?

Although you can use a white shimmer eye shadow, I recommend investing in some white shimmer lipstick instead. This way, you can apply the lipstick anywhere you are.

The secret to perfecting this trick is to apply the white shimmer right smack dab in the middle of your lips on the lower and upper lip. Be sure not to rub your full lips sideways after application.

Suggested brands:
MAC Glaze in Bubbles
NARS Lip Lacquer in Galactica
Sephora Gloss Lipstick in Sheer White Pearl

Apply your fuller lips

I see women in washrooms all over the world applying their lipstick in 3 seconds flat and not paying much mind to what they’re doing, but I believe that applying make up is a very sensual experience and you should be very aware of what it is you are doing.

That said, when you’re preparing to leave the house tomorrow, dedicate some time to prepping your lips and before you know it, they’ll be looking so sensuous that someone will ask you if they can kiss your full lips.

Until next time, make it up.

Celebrities With Chignon Hairstyle

There are tons of videos on youtube and elsewhere that offer terrific instructions for sweet little updos---just check out our Easy Updo Video Playlist. It may take you forever to get a perfect hair-bow like Paris Hilton's, but do you really want to look like Paris?

Paris Hilton's Oscar-Worthy Chignon


Right now, the sweetest looks are just a little messy. At the 80th Annual Academy Awards , all the A-listers sported sweet, carefree trendrils streaming from their effortless-looking updos. Think Jen Garner :

Jen Garner's Oscar-Worthy Chignon


While you know she spent hours in a salon chair, this is a look easily duplicated in a number of minutes (providing you have enough hair to pull it off. I obviously don't) . It's just a low, messy chignon. This look will work best on long, gently wavy hair.
Jen Garner's Oscar-Worthy Chignon

1. Give yourself a high side part on whichever side of your head you think looks best. To get hair to fall the right way, Jen's stylist probably blew sections dry starting closest to the scalp, pinning each section back until he'd finished.


2. If you have stick straight hair, you can now use a curler on the ends of your hair. Try for big, loose curls--tight, sausage-like curls are a little too prom, even if that's your ultimate destination. Trust me.

3. Gather hair into a low, loose ponytail (leave a few waves to frame the face for Jen's look). Leave the elastic relatively loose on the hair, and use bobby pins to secure it to your head.

4. Loop individual sections of hair around your ponytail's base, pinning loops into a loose bun (make sure you use bobby pins the same color as your hair). If you have too many loose ends once you've pinned all sections, don't fret. It's supposed to look sort of messy. It seems that Jen's stylist pinned the loose ends beneath the ponytail base, so if you have enough length to tuck them under, go ahead

Prom Hairstyles - Summer Hairstyles

We always seem to look forward to the warmer months ahead… the fun in the sun, lightweight clothing, sandals, shorts, ponytails, and pools! Erin O’Kelley, Miss North Carolina USA 2007, is an exquisite young lady who graces our summer edition with her outstanding good looks and an incredible personality to match. We took her from a glamorous beauty queen to a stunning bathing beauty (who better to show off what’s hot this season). The fun and fresh trend this time of year is easy and free-moving—everything from the swimsuit to the hair is light, airy, and non-constricting. Following in Erin’s footsteps, you too can change your look from curly to straight in a flash with these quick styling techniques.


BRUSHED ASIDE
Using the side element of our previous side-parted design to create this one, we merely teased Erin’s hair underneath, then brushed it up and away from her face to show off her incredible eyes. We pulled her lingering curls out with pomade to form a flexible wave and fastened it into an unrestricted ponytail. Finally, we finger-lifted the roots in front while applying hairspray.


BRAIDED WITH PANACHE
Braids in the summer are durable and appealing… if you wear them with panache. Erin’s features are liberated when her mane is pulled off her face. To add structure to a basic braid, we heavily teased the hair at the front to create height and smoothed it over into a French braid guided to one side. We used mega-shine spray to add hold and luster.


THE CROWNING TOUCH
Erin’s look is all natural here, with only a staggered part to dress up what is otherwise a straight-ahead look that imparts a timeless, All-American girl-next-door wholesomeness. Nothing is allowed to distract from that impression.


ROLL OUT THE BARRELS
Erin’s long, straight hair is barrel curled into ringlets throughout her head. Each curl enhances her beautifully highlighted locks, while her lowlights add dimension. Simply brush through hair with hands to break apart curls, but allow some ringlets to remain together. Hairspray is lightly misted over the entire style. From underneath, scrunch the roots to add height to this look.

A CLEAN SWEEP
This softer, more casual look is an easy transition from the “barrel-curled” style. We simply smoothed the curls out with a soft bristol brush, leaving a few twists around her neck and collarbone to draw attention upward. The use of polishing milk helped us control loose ends and tame the curls into a touchable, side-swept effect. We also used a mega-shine, mega-hold hairspray to preserve the tresses around her face.

PARTING SHOT
For this flirty, fun, face-framing hairdo, we completely brushed out all product, then made an ear-to-ear part to separate this section of hair from the foundation of the style. The residual locks were then parted off from ear-to-ear on the upper nap of the head, teased on the crown, and then smoothed over and secured with a petite covered hair band. The leftover front section is parted precisely down the middle and tucked behind her ears.
