Beyonce Knowles has been in the media for something new just about every day recently and we’re not ones to complain – we just can’t get enough of her! Today the superstar is making headlines after she showed off her midriff and spoke candidly about her post-baby body and her views on feminism in the latest UK Vogue.
Contrary to what we hear so often, Bey says having a baby has made her feel better than ever about her body, saying, “It comes from knowing my purpose and really meeting myself once I saw my child. I was like, ‘OK, this is what you were born to do. The purpose of my body became completely different. The way I view it and everything. There’s a sensuality and an audacity that I’m OK with sharing.” The ‘Bow Down’ singer also spoke on the topic of feminism – a response to the criticism she received for naming her upcoming tour ‘The Mrs Carter Show’. She said, “I guess I am a modern-day feminist. I do believe in equality and that we have a way to go and it’s something that’s pushed aside and something that we have been conditioned to accept.”
She continued, “I feel like Mrs Carter is who I am, but more bold and more fearless than I’ve ever been. I do believe in equality, and that we have a ways to go… But I’m happily married. I love my husband.”
Khloe Kardashian’s basketballer husband Lamar Odom has come under some pretty serious fire because of a scandal with the foundation, Cathy’s Kids, which he launched in 2004 to honour his late mother who died of stomach cancer. The scandal has occurred because, according to records in an ESPN investigation of more than a hundred charities, the $2.2 million raised by Cathy’s Kids has never been seen by any cancer charity and the only paid executive for the foundation is the man who played the best man role at Odom’s wedding!
Khloe has used her star power to protect her husband, speaking out on her website in an attempt to clear up the mess. She said, “It is unfortunate that my husband has been the target of an attack on athletes’ charities, although he has personally contributed approximately $2.2 million to his foundation, Cathy’s Kids, to fulfil its charitable purposes that include helping underprivileged inner-city youth.”
We suspect we’re yet to see the end of this one… stay tuned!
We’ve seen our fair share of tragic celebrity tattoos but this one is just plain weird. Ryan Cabrera stepped out in Las Vegas sporting some new ink that had everyone wondering just what he was thinking.
The tattoo in question is a portrait of Ryan Gosling’s face. No, seriously. The star claims he didn’t know what he was getting until the tattoo was complete saying, “[My friends] like to play a game called tattoo roulette. We blindfold each other. You get to pick a tattoo for me, and I get to pick a tattoo for you. And you don’t get to see it until they’re both done. The only rules are that it can’t be religious and it can’t offend anybody.”
And, yes, it’s permanent.
So what did Cabrera’s mate end up with? An illustration of a Hershey’s Kiss. It’s hardly an eye for an eye (or should we say a face for a face)!
