Diesel releases an Iron Man inspired cologne!

Iron Man 2 is one of the most anticipated movies this year, and along with its popularity a range of manufacturers have decided to cash in on Iron Man’s success. One of these is clothing an fragrance manufacturer Diesel who are releasing a limited edition Iron Man Cologne.

It looks like this limited edition fragrance is Diesel’s ‘Only The Brave Cologne’ with Iron Man packaging, so maybe it wont make you smell like Tony Stark after all. We suspect Tony Stark uses something more exclusive and more expensive.

The Diesel Iron Man Cologne will be available sometime next month for $67.50.

I kinda want to smell it, not gonna lie.

Judge Demands Kelis Pay $5,000 For Weave

Kelis has been ordered to pay $5,000 for a hair weave after allegedly failing to settle a salon bill.

The Milkshake hit-maker is said to have received the hairstyle at a Santa Monica, California salon last May – but faced legal action from her stylist over the alleged outstanding debt.

Legal documents were subsequently filed and the case was sent to trial – but Kelis failed to attend the hearing on Monday, according to TMZ.com.

The website reports that the judge entered a default judgment for the R&B singer to pay the full amount.

LeAnn Rimes Is The New Face For Psoriasis Campaign

LeAnn Rimes is opening up about her long-running chronic skin disease – and is urging other sufferers of psoriasis to “stop hiding” the condition.

The Blue singer was diagnosed with the autoimmune disorder at the age of two and she’s long battled the problem, which commonly causes recurring red, scaly patches to appear on the skin.

Now, Rimes has teamed up with the American Academy of Dermatology and the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF) to back their Make A Change Pledge, which aims to de-stigmatize the disease.

She says, “The purpose of the Make a Change Pledge is to empower people living with psoriasis to make changes that can help them increase their understanding of the disease and its impact on their everyday lives, as well as encourage them to work with a dermatologist to optimally manage their disease.”

“As a performer in the public spotlight, coping with my psoriasis was scary and frustrating at times. I had to recognize how psoriasis was affecting many aspects of my life and commit to managing it. Personally, I learned to control my disease by working with a dermatologist to develop a treatment plan that is best for me.”
