Lauren, Selena and Kim Turn Out Stylishly in Hollywood

PopSugar — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 12:30:23 -0700

Many pretty young things were out in LA last night to attend the Hollywood Style Awards. Lauren Conrad took a break from thinking about the LA Candy movie to hit the white carpet in a floral dress, present an award and congratulate Young Stylemaker Brody Jenner. Kim was the lone Kardashian at the event and talked about how she's happy to let her sisters have the spotlight these days, though they're still working together on an upcoming line for Bebe. Hayden Panettiere and Selena Gomez posed in their minis and were just a few of the evening's big winners, but you guys seem split when it comes to deciding who was the best dressed.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz touched down in NYC on Tuesday, and last night they were out celebrating the launch of Axe's new leather-scented fragrance called Instinct. They were joined by another happy couple, Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush, as well as Lance Bass and Dancing with the Stars's Cheryl Burke. Ashlee was decked out in head-to-toe leather while Pete sported a matching jacket, as they apparently took the evening's theme to heart.

Diet Tips From Dancing With the Stars

FitSugar — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 06:00:00 -0700

If you're following this season of Dancing With the Stars, you've probably noticed the dancers' amazingly toned and strong bodies in their sexy and revealing costumes. If you're wondering how they stay fit and lean, here are some of the dieting secrets they shared in a recent issue of Us Weekly.

Melissa Rycroft says, "I eat what I like in moderation and try to have a few small meals throughout the day."

Julianne Hough says, "I eat only until I'm full." She eats five small meals throughout the day, and during the show she tries to cut out carbs and sweets. She doesn't restrict herself entirely, though, and says, "If I want to have dessert, I'll have it. I know I'll work it off."

Shawn Johnson loads up on fruit and protein, but if she has an urge for chocolate she says, "I'll satisfy my craving and move on." She stays slim and muscular by dancing eight hours a day.

Denise Richards trained with her partner Makism Chmerkovsky and got her abs back after having two kids. She went from a size 26 waist to a 24 from all that training, and was still eating pizza and ice cream.

To see how the other dancers stay trim, read more.

Kym Johnson spends a lot of time doing core work to get her rock-hard abs. She also limits her carbs because she says, "I love fries and bread, but I see a real difference in my body when I don't eat them after 5 p.m." She'll still enjoy dessert when out to dinner with her boyfriend, but just a small portion.

Lil' Kim gets her meals and snacks from Freshology, a food delivery service. She eats a total of 1,200 to 1,400 calories a day, avoids heavy foods, and drinks a lot of water.

Lacey Schwimmer shed 10 pounds by ditching fatty foods and soda, and instead enjoys grilled chicken, steamed veggies, yogurt, and fruit. She recommends eating within an hour after working out.

Cheryl Burke dropped 10 pounds as well, by rehearsing eight hours a day, five days a week. She eats egg whites, whole grains, veggies, and lots of water. She also tries to avoid salt, and keeps snacks with her to avoid temptation.

Karina Smirnoff avoids meat but eats egg whites, fish, and salad. She has a tablespoon of olive oil on an empty stomach to help with digestion.

Holly Madison avoids liquid calories and drinks water instead.

Edyta Sliwinska sticks to 1,500 calories a day, eating foods such as cottage cheese, ground oats, berries, chicken salad, and cereal. She avoids pasta, bread, rice, and candy. She gets her toned legs from dancing in heels.

Has Birth Control Affected Your Weight?

FitSugar — Wed, 25 Feb 2009 09:00:00 -0800

As if there weren't enough factors to worry about in the weight control battle, some varieties of birth control can disturb a balance we may have achieved. In a recent interview, Dancing With the Stars celebrity Cheryl Burke spoke about her weight fluctuation and said, "I decided over the Summer to stop taking birth control pills. I did it thinking that I was going to lose more weight for the season. But it actually did the opposite. It made me gain weight."

It's the first I've heard of someone going off birth control and gaining weight - most women I know have either maintained or lost a few pounds. One way or another, has birth control affected the number on your scale?

Lauren Conrad looked beautiful dressed up as a glamorous flapper with her pink feather and matching boa at the Pur Jeans Halloween Party at STK in Hollywood on Friday night.

Cheryl Burke: "You Don't Have to Be Anorexic to Be Beautiful!"

FitSugar — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 03:30:00 -0700

Dancing With the Stars is in full swing right now, and I'm always impressed with how strong and toned everyone becomes over the course of the show. After the media pounced on her for potentially gaining a few pounds, Cheryl Burke is speaking out by reminding everyone that being confident is beautiful. The professional dancer recently told People:

I want kids or women out there to realize you don’t have to be anorexic to be beautiful. There’s a lot of pressure living this Hollywood life. People expect to see you at a certain weight and when you gain a few pounds then all of a sudden it’s the talk of the week.

People will always have an opinion about you, whether it’s good or it’s bad. But most important is to have a secure feeling about yourself and know that you’re beautiful regardless of what people think of you. When I was younger, I wasn’t stick thin. I wasn’t tall. I don’t have long legs. I wasn’t naturally skinny. As I grew older, I just became more comfortable in my own skin.

Cheryl is a strong woman and I'm pleased to see her standing up to the pressures to be super thin in Hollywood. Strong is beautiful, and there isn't a thing wrong with having a few womanly curves!

Paris and Lauren Join the Kids of 90210 to Celebrate TV

Molly — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 11:45:28 -0700

Nylon magazine gathered some pretty young things at the Roosevelt Hotel in LA last night to celebrate their first-ever TV issue. Ryan Eggold and Adam Gregory represented the boys of the 90210 spinoff, while Shenae Grimes and AnnaLynne McCord - who are the issue's cover girls - posed together for photos. On the reality TV side, Lauren Conrad and Paris Hilton looked great as they strutted their stuff on the red carpet. Shenae, AnnaLynne, and the guys should be pretty happy with their show's high ratings, but since you aren't sure about how you feel about the new series, we'll have to wait until next week to see if people keep tuning in.

Britney Cleans Up, Steps Out With Jim and Jenny

Molly — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 05:02:00 -0700

Britney Spears slipped into a sexy LBD and hit the blue carpet with a smile on Saturday night at the Generation Rescue Event hosted by Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy. The pop star apparently sipped on red wine, looked happy and expressed interest in the information about autism Jim and Jenny presented through the night. Friday's big news about settling her custody dispute with Kevin - even though she now owes him $20,000 per month in child support - must have put Britney in a good enough mood to want to hit the town and hang out with some celebrity friends. It's not often that we get red carpet Miss Spears these days, but perhaps this is a sign that she's ready to get back out there and smile for all the cameras.

Celebrities Play Heroes For a Day in Sunny LA

Molly — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 06:00:00 -0700

It was a beautiful Sunday in LA where lots of familiar faces came out for the A Time For Heroes Celebrity Carnival to benefit the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation. Among the all-stars out for the great event were adorable (and tiny!) new parents Nicole Richie and Joel Madden along with Courteney Cox and ever-quirky David Arquette. Mischa looked every bit the flower child in her butterfly wings while all the ladies (and ugh Heidi and Spencer) of The Hills happily posed for the cameras. I have to say though, little Coco totally stole the show. Looking at all the smiles, the sun wasn't the only thing shining on all the stars out to support the wonderful cause.
