Healthy happy you.
Dear Fit, I have always wanted to donate blood, but just looking at blood sometimes makes me feel like I'm going to faint. I break out in a cold sweat and feel woozy. Oddly, it only happens when I see real blood, not onscreen blood in movies (I loved Twilight). What is causing this, and can I do anything about it? — No Love For Blood That is definitely a great question, and you are definitely Read more
I've never watched Dancing Fainting with the Stars before, but if it's this action packed, I might start. Seriously, though, poor Marie Osmond! That English dude was in the middle of explaining how she and her partner performed and the lights went out in the marquee. Meanwhile, can I just note that interviewer's poor attempt at humor toward the end? Talk about adding insult to injury! Read more
Nicole Richie has been having a tough time of late, especially with her health. While shooting episodes for the 5th Season of The Simple Life with her buddy Paris Hilton, she has been fainting and passing out. YIKES!!! The good news is she now knows the reason for her extreme dips in energy. It is being reported that Nicole has been diagnosed with hypoglycemia. Ok, so what is hypoglycemia? Read more
Brad Pitt's gritty new project, Killing Them Softly (formerly titled Cogan's Trade, and based on a book of the same name), made its debut to the press at the Cannes Film Festival this morning. Considering the early hour of the screening and just how violent and drug-fueled it is as a film, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it overall. Pitt is at his best playing the ruthless assassin, and Read more
Season three of The Vampire Diaries has come to an end, folks, and forgive me if I am still sitting here with my jaw wide open. The finale is eventful, to say the least, and like seasons past, we saw the deaths of a couple of characters — along with the red herring deaths of a couple of characters. Oh, and by that I mean that something super crazy happens in the final moments of the episode Read more
It seems like Tracy Anderson has trained half of Hollywood, and one of her biggest fans, Nicole Richie, even enlisted her to help her get in shape for her 2010 wedding. "Nicole worked out six days a week, she learned dance aerobics, she did her muscular structure work, and she did it in such a healthy beautiful way," Tracy says of her client's devoted wedding prep. If you want to look like a Read more
We almost fell to our fainting couches when we heard that Maggie Smith might be leaving Downton Abbey. But luckily a rep for the studio says that our dearest Dowager Countess is not saying farewell to Downton. The strong female characters of the PBS show are multifaceted and flawed, and we see a little of ourselves in each of them. But the strongest and most outspoken of the bunch is clearly Lady Read more
Kelly Clarkson admits it — she hates cardio. In fact, she really hates cardio. After she covered Britney Spears's song "'Till the World Ends" at a recent concert, Kelly told the crowd: I love that song, [although] I always have a little bit of a bad taste in my mouth when I hear Britney Spears because it's my cardio music and I freaking hate cardio. I freaking hate the gym. The gym can suck Read more

There are a lot of celebrity fragrances out there, but Madonna isn't just any famous face. So it follows that any perfume she'd make would be suitably fabulous. Her new scent, Truth or Dare, is definitely not what you'd expect from a celebrity endeavor — or even what you'd expect from the commercial above, for that matter. All the sexy fishnets and mirror gazing might lead you to believe that Read more
