You don’t need to pile on layers of color to get this season’s hottest make up trend. Get ready to go nude! It’s all about enhancing your natural beauty with neutral shades that highlight what you already have.
* Use a bronzer instead of blush to give your face a just tanned, natural looking glow.
* Skip the lipstick and go with a sheer gloss or find a shade that matches the natural color of your lips. You can also try dabbing a little bit on concealer on for a sexy nude lip.
* Naked make up doesn’t have to be all about boring beiges! Play around with colors from peaches to pinks to bronzes that highlight your natural skin color.

With the release of her new “Flash Tones” album quickly approaching, Kelis has hit the promo trail to promote its first single “Acapella,” an uptempo dance track produced by hot DJ of the moment David Guetta. The singer rocked the stage last night at the Eve Nighclub in Las Vegas- showcasing not only her new sound, but new look as well. I know folks are hating on Kelis long gray braid right now… but mark my words six months from now I predict that gray will be the new blond.
Gotta love her fearlessness….

The latest Brown Sista sightings include two of my favorites- Eve and Rihanna. Eve was spotted out in Beverly Hills leaving an office building with friends. The raptress made news recently when it was learned that she owes about $357,000 in unpaid back taxes. The Detriot News reports four separate liens have been filed against Eve since 2008- two from the IRS totaling $271,684 and two from the state of California totaling $85,656. This comes just weeks after the rapper was linked to a multi-million dollar money laundering scheme centered around her ex boyfriend Teodorin Nguema.
Next up is Rihanna who was spotted leaving ITV Studios in London. The singer had just appeared on the television show “Chatty Men” and of all things… attempted to teach someone how to dance. Check the pics and video below… it’s kinda cute.

Whitney Houston is not feeling the love on her latest tour. The singer has reportedly struggled with her voice since kicking off her “Nothing But Love” tour earlier this month- her first in almost a decade. Video postings of her recent performances in Australia have been unflattering- however Whitney’s publicist released a statement on Thursday saying ”Whitney is in great health and having a terrific time on her tour and with her fans. She said more than 9,000 people attended Whitney’s show in Brisbane and more than 12,000 were at Acer Arena in Sydney. ”Her fans were dancing and singing along with her and Whitney appreciates their support,” Foster said.
A review of her Brisbane show can seen below…

Estelle is moving forward with another studio project. She already had a new song called “Freak” ready to roll out and recently filmed a music video for it. To match the theme of the song, the video is filled with people, including Estelle, acting freaky. “It’s a very sexual song. I wanted to kinda take it away from being about sex and more about bringing out your inner freak,” she dished on the concept. “It’s kinda a metaphor for how you control your life, so you have your different personalities. You bring them out when you need to.” The video is directed by Nabil Elderkin, the same man who made Kanye West’s haunting video for his single “Coldest Winter”. It is planned to be premiered this coming Friday, February 26 at 4 P.M. EST on Estelle’s official website. “Freak” is produced by acclaimed DJ/producer David Guetta and is confirmed to be included in Estelle’s upcoming studio effort “All of Me”. The song is promised to be made available for purchase sometime soon, while the album is yet to have any release date.

Singer Beyonce has been voted the celebrity with the best body by British women. The curvy star came top of the new poll by landing 24 per cent of the vote, but men believe that Transformers star Megan Fox has the best body and said she is the woman they would sleep with if allowed to by their partner. The poll was carried out by Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. It also found that British model Katie Price is becoming less popular as a third of men and women voted her the least attractive celebrity. Both sexes also voted that Victoria Beckham has the worst figure out of other celebrities. The poll was carried out to mark the release of Fox’s new movie, Jennifer’s Body, on DVD.
