Mariah Carey Called Champagne Fattening — Is She Right?
When Mariah Carey tried to get out of a champagne toast with Ellen DeGeneres as a guest on Ellen, she initially reacted to the host's persistence by exclaiming that champagne is fattening. When Ellen proceeded to hand her a glass of bubbly to toast to Mariah "not being pregnant" (a trickster, that Ellen!), Mariah tried another route and said that it was too early in the day for alcohol.
The first thing that comes to mind when I think of champagne isn't the word fattening, as it apparently is for Mariah, but the singer does have a point.

Save Your Money: The Chin Gym
I was watching some old Ellen (I know, I am obsessed with her) videos the other day and came across her mom, Betty, trying out "As Seen on TV" fitness contraptions. One product, the Chin Gym, caught my eye as I thought there was no way this product existed but I was wrong, it does exist.
The Chin Gym ($39.95) is basically a really complicated looking contraption that promises to reduce the double chin and define the jaw line by trimming, toning, strengthening and removing wrinkles from chin, neck and jaw line muscles.

Ellen and Carmen Bedroom Workout
Carmen Electra has a new Aerobic Striptease - In the Bedroom DVD and she convinced Ellen to do a little bit of the workout with her on Ellen's show recently. I personally resonated with this clip because Ellen acts exactly how I feel when I am doing these sexy type workout videos — and I also happen to really enjoy Ellen.

On day 10 of my Countdown to The Oscars with Ellen and Bob Harper, Bob shows us some great moves to really work our lower abdominal muscles. Do the best you can but definitely don't push it; you can always work your way up to these exercises. If you have a partner, even better, then you can increase the movement and help work your obliques.
