So how much does it cost to look like Demi Moore? $140K per year!

Demi Moore may be one of the hottest 48-year-olds on the planet, but those looks come with one hefty price tag. Though she repeatedly denies having undergone plastic surgery (she does own up to her obvious boob job), new reports have emerged detailing the extensive surgical and non-surgical treatments Moore has received over the years. Prepare to have your mind blown.

After turning 40, the mother of three allegedly spent around $311,000 on a head-to-toe overhaul, Heidi Montag style. She spent $25,000 on liposuction, $15,000 on breast implants, and $31,000 on facial work. She also became obsessed with the skin above her knees sagging, so she had them fixed.

More recently are Moore’s Thermage skin-tightening treatments, which run around $3,000 a pop. This technique uses radio frequency to heat the deeper layers of the skin while cooling the skin’s surface. This tightens collagen and stimulates growth, which makes your epidermis appear tighter and smoother. Apparently she likes the results, because she’s been known to go in for treatments weekly.

Whatever she spends, it’s obviously working. I mean look at her! She’s gorgeous!

Kim Kardashian pleaded with God to make her breasts stop growing!

Kourtney, Kim and Khloe Kardashian can now add author to their long and varied resumes. Their tome, entitled ‘Kardashian Konfidential,’ is a fun and breezy read that traces their childhood and offers lots of beauty and style tips. It’s also teeming with photos and letters that the girls have penned to each other through the years. It seems their tight sisterly bond is not just for the camera. The trio spoke to PopEater in the middle of a hectic New York book tour.

Kim, you write in ‘Kardashian Konfidential’ how you had a hard time with your body as a young girl.
Kim: Kourtney used to torture me and think I was odd because I had big boobs. I was 11 when I got my period and I started developing. I would sit in the bathtub, take a washcloth, put it under really hot water and put it against my boobs and pray to God, please don’t make my boobs grow any bigger. And Kourtney would be like, “Your boobs are so big and ugly!” She was so mean and then I would have to wear a bra and she would say, “Who wears a bra? That’s so disgusting.” It was so embarrassing.

Do you hate it when people say you’re famous for being famous?
Khloe: I don’t hate it. I just don’t really understand it. I don’t care what people think really, but I do think in my opinion we’ve worked really hard to be where we are. It’s not like we just sit there posing on the red carpet.
Kourtney: I think maybe at first we heard that more often, but people who watch the show see how hard we work and how we have different companies.

Who picks on whom most?
Khloe: I think Kourtney and I team up on Kim a lot.
Kim: I just realized we’re all wearing black and leopard print.
Khloe: Duh. Normally 80 percent of the time it’s me and Kourtney against Kim. We like to keep her level-headed. You might be stunning, little one, but you’re not all that. (Snaps her fingers). We make her cry sometimes. I think it’s a buildup thing though. It’s not that we’re that mean, it’s just like two weeks of picking on her and on the fifteenth day she starts crying.
Kourtney: I think we make her cry once every two years.
Kim: I was just going to say it’s once every two years.

A pregnant Mariah Carey rambles for hours on HSN!

She goes on and on an on… repeats herself continuously. Yes, she’s pregnant. Her fingers and feet are swollen. Well, everything appears to be swollen (check out the boobs)!

She talks about how she hates perfume, but loves perfume bottles. Says she’s not a perfume person. (Strange, considering she’s on the show to promote – amongst other things – perfume!)

Kind of a funny video – check it out!

Reese Witherspoon opens up about feeling sexier in her 30′s

Reese Witherspoon covers the January issue of Glamour, and in the interview she talks about her kids, career and getting older. About a year ago Reese broke up with Jake Gyllenhaal, who has recently been dating Taylor Swift.

Here are some excerpts from the interview. You can read the rest of the interview here!

GLAMOUR: Sexier in the way that you look at yourself in the mirror and say, “I look good”?

REESE WITHERSPOON: It’s more like, “This is what I’ve got. And I’m going to make the best of it.” There’s always going to be somebody younger or sexier. That’s why I like to say, and it’s become my famous line, “Funny doesn’t sag.” When somebody comes up to me and says, “You look hot in that movie,” I always respond, “But was I funny?” For me, it’s not really about how you look but about the joy or the bit of light that you bring to whatever you do. I know I’m just more attracted to people who have a light about them.

“I think as a woman, you get older, you feel more confident in your sexuality. You’re not as intimidated by it, not as embarrassed by it. Sexuality and femininity is an accumulation of age and wisdom and comfort in your own skin. I feel better–so much better now than I ever did in my twenties. I am calmer; I know who I am. And as a result, I feel much sexier.”

GLAMOUR: Everything seems to be going so well for you. Right now, what would you say you love most about your life?

REESE WITHERSPOON: Sunday mornings. Even when I was a child, Sunday morning was a barometer for how the week was going to go. You can learn a lot about yourself with what you’re doing and who you’re with on a Sunday, I think. I’m really, really lucky. I’ve got a lot of love in my life. I’ve got great friends. I have two great kids whom I make pancakes for every Sunday. I’m very blessed.
