Christina Aguilera shows off her shocking weight loss in new TwitPic!

Christina Aguilera just posted this picture on Twitter, and she looks insane! Along with the picture, she captioned, “On set shooting music video with @Alexoficial for #HoyTengoGanasDeTi” She’s lost quite a bit of weight!

In other Christina news, looks like she’s headed back to ‘The Voice!’ The singer will head back to the NBC reality show for season 5, and Shakira will be leaving the show, because she wants to focus on her family.

“I’m not going to be able to do next season because I have to get back to my motherhood and also get back to the studio, the recording studio, to finish my album, the one that I started working on before I had to deliver a baby and before I took this gig with The Voice,” she told Us of her decision to leave the show after just one season. “So yeah, I have to take a little break. But you never know, I might come back!”

The “Hips Don’t Lie” singer and fellow season newbie Usher have been rumored to be leaving the show, amid chatter of Aguilera and Cee Lo Green’s return. But while Daly could confirm that Aguilera will indeed be back, he expressed uncertainty over Green’s situation.

“I don’t know. I think they are working on a deal to be honest with you, and I don’t think it has been finalized,” he told reporters on the red carpet after the live taping. “I don’t know the answer to that. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was, sooner or later. It sounded like today it was like, ‘Yeah, they are working on it,’ which, usually those things work out, but I don’t know.”

On Tuesday night’s elimination show, a member of both Team Usher and Team Shakira were sent packing following America’s vote — Usher’s earnest R&B crooner Vedo and Shakira’s gritty rocker Garrett Gardner. But being returning judges doesn’t necessarily give Blake Shelton and Adam Levine the advantage, Daly clarified.

“As a producer of the show, we do so much storytelling [for the blind auditions], [but] if they get goose bumps, they just hit their button and go,” he said of the coaches’ decision-making. “I mean, are you going to tell me Usher has a bad ear? You know what I mean? I think it was a coincidence that our two new coaches had people go home tonight.”

BREAKING NEWS: Angelina Jolie undergoes preventative double mastectomy – what would you do?

Angelina Jolie has undergone a preventative double mastectomy. The actress revealed the news herself in an article she wrote for The New York Times titled ‘My Medical Choice.’

Angelina explained that she underwent the breast removal procedure because he has the mutated BRCA1 gene, which is known to increase a woman’s chance of getting both breast and ovarian cancers.

Angelina, 37, explained her decision in the article (which you can read in full here):

My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the case of each woman.

Once I knew that this was my reality, I decided to be proactive and to minimize the risk as much I could. I made a decision to have a preventive double mastectomy. I started with the breasts, as my risk of breast cancer is higher than my risk of ovarian cancer, and the surgery is more complex.

On April 27, I finished the three months of medical procedures that the mastectomies involved. During that time I have been able to keep this private and to carry on with my work.

My own process began on Feb. 2 with a procedure known as a “nipple delay,” which rules out disease in the breast ducts behind the nipple and draws extra blood flow to the area. This causes some pain and a lot of bruising, but it increases the chance of saving the nipple. CONTINUE READING (SHE OPENS UP ABOUT BRAD PITT) AFTER THE JUMP! More »

Carrie Underwood lands the June cover of Marie Claire, proclaims, “I’m not a mushy person at all.”

Carrie Underwood lands the US cover of Marie Claire (earlier today we saw Miranda Kerr’s racy Australia cover). I think she looks absolutely gorgeous on the cover, and in the picture inside. It’s not a typical magazine cover, and I think I kind of like that. She looks very beautiful.

In the interview, she talks about how she’s perceived by the public, and how she can’t help her personality. It’s obviously gotten her where she is today, so who’s complaining?

Here are some highlights:

On her personality: “I’m not a mushy person at all. We were never a huggy family. Or a ‘let’s talk it out’ family. Technically I have siblings but they are quite a bit older than me – I was the accident – so I have the only-child syndrome going on. I’m a little more selfish, a little more independent, a little closed. I do wish I were softer. I wish I were able to form relationships better. But hey, I mean…I’m not a sociopath.”

On anxiety: “At the beginning of my career, I used to have panic attacks. People were touching me, screaming – it made me really nervous. In public, I just get nervous. It’s a physical reaction, feeling like the walls are closing in. The fans are great. It’s not their fault. I don’t ever want to come across as ungrateful. But on my end, it is hard for me to process. Because I am still just me.”

On awkward moments: “My husband calls me the queen of awkward moments. Anything that can be made awkward, I will make it awkward.”

What she wrote in her high school yearbook: “You were supposed to say what you would be doing in 10 years, and I said, ‘I will be rich, famous, and married to a hot guy.’ I guess I should have added a few more things.”

On having kids: “I don’t feel old enough to have kids. I know I am mature. But being responsible for another human?”

Zoe Saldana announces her weight on the new cover of Allure Magazine

Zoe Saldana lands the June cover of Allure Magazine, and on the cover, the actress reveals her weight, which seems bizarre to me. The unusual cover line is: “Zoe Saldana: 115 Pounds of Grit and Heartache.”

Okay?

Anyway, she looks beautiful in these pictures. Tiny, but beautiful. In the interview, I don’t think she came off very well, if I’m being honest. She has a cockiness, or air about her. I don’t know. Read the highlights below, let me know what you think:

On possibly being a lesbian, and not knowing what androgynous means: “I might end up with a woman raising my children. That’s how androgynous I am.”

On being with a woman? “Yes, I was raised that open.”

Has she ever been with another woman? She deliberates, then says, “Promise me one thing: You’re going to ask this question [in the article]—if you choose to, just put three dots as my response. That’s it.”

Dating actors: “Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.” TWO MORE half dressed pics of Zoe after the jump! More »

Nicole Kidman signs with Jimmy Choo

Nicole Kidman has just signed on to star in Jimmy Choo’s upcoming fall campaign, which will be shot by Mikael Jansson!

The shoe company said the campaign has a “cinematic feel that hints at the power and seduction of the Jimmy Choo woman.”

It is slated to break in the August editions of titles including British and American Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar, Vanity Fair, Elle, and W.

The campaign is Sandra Choi’s first as sole creative director of the company.

“Nicole is one of the finest actresses in the world,” said Choi. “I knew [she] could convey the empowered glamour of the brand. But she is also so nuanced and refined; she brings an attitude of defiance, strength, sensuality and elegance.”

Kidman said she has always loved fashion, “and often use it as a way to get into character.”

The actress is part of the eight-person jury of the Cannes film festival, which opens Wednesday and runs through May 26.

Can’t wait to see the ads!

Gwyneth Paltrow gives a hilarious, admittedly drunk-interview, toasts to “hairless vaginas!”

Two Australian DJs won a chance to have dinner with Gwyneth Paltrow last week in New York City. The DJs paid $30,000 in an auction to sit down with Goopy and ask her a bunch of questions. They recorded it for their show.

Here’s what went down when Kyle & Jackie O (above) sat down with Gwyneth:

On being drunk before dinner: ”I am drunk already. I am. A martini went straight to my head and now wine. With no food. So just watch out.”

On what they paid to have dinner with her: “How much did it cost. 7 pounds?”

On eating bread: ”I had like four pieces and on my fifth piece, I was like ‘f*ck this’ and threw it back in the basket.”

On the Met Gala: ”Like you always think, ‘Oh my god. This is going to so glamorous and amazing and you’re going to see all these people.’ And then you get there, and it’s so hot. It’s so crowded. Everyone’s pushing you. This year it was really intense. It wasn’t fun.”

On Kanye West:Kanye West was playing. And he was furious. And he threw his microphone down. It was all drama!”

On the Met Gala going “Punk”: ”I feel like we’re all a bit old to be trying to dress punk.”

On meeting Psy: ”We’re at the Met Ball. Our son is obsessed with him. So Chris sees him, and he’s like ‘Oh my god, there’s Psy.’ I was like, wait — ’cause I thought it was P-S-Y. I was like, who’s Psy?”

On her bikini line: ”I said, ‘No, I got a big ’70s bush.’ Which I was kidding. But then it was all a disaster. And now I look like an 8-year-old girl, basically.”

On bikini waxes: ”Every time I have a bikini wax, Cameron Diaz holds me down.”

On toasting her vagina: ”Cheers to our hairless vaginas!”

Okay, honestly I thought this was a hilarious interview. Yeah, she was blitzed, but she didn’t really care what anyone thought! You have to appreciate people like that.

Cheers to hairless vaginas! C’mon, it’s funny.
