This week’s news that ‘cosmetic surgery couples’ are on the rise has got me thinking: I wonder how many celebrities have encouraged their partners to undergo a procedure to improve their appearance? One obvious example springs to mind immediately - David and Victoria Beckham of course! The stylish pair have always hit the headlines with their “his ‘n’ her” ventures, their new perfume being just one example. And although neither of them have ever officially confirmed having had cosmetic surgery done, it’s widely speculated that not only has Posh had a breast enlargement, but both her and David are likely regular users of Botox.

Here’s a searching question for all you beauty queens: how old were you when you first started wearing make-up? I begged my mum to buy me some eyeliner when I was eight but it wasn’t until I was 14 that she let me dabble with her make-up. She let me buy my own soon enough after that- sorry for ruining all your favourite lipsticks mum. I can understand why she tried to hold me off now; after all, she just wanted me to enjoy being a kid for as long as possible. But, as I continued to long for that first splash of black (or purple!) on my lids or that subtle hint of rouge on my cheekbones, the mesmerising thought of wearing make-up and “being grown-up” never left my mind.

Poor Kerry Katona! Just days after announcing how happy she was with her recent cosmetic surgeries, the former Atomic Kitten singer and reality television star slurred her way through a TV appearance, sparking rumours that she’s spiralling out of control.

Outspoken Kerry was having trouble saying anything on ITV’s This Morning yesterday and she stumbled over her words so badly that Philip Schofield asked her what was wrong, adding that she didn’t seem right. Now people are claiming that the star, who suffers from a bipolar disorder, had spent the night before downing shots of Sambuca backstage on ITV’s Celebrity Juice. (more…)

Feisty Sharon Osbourne is one of those stars that you can’t help being fascinated by - especially as she’s certainly not one to keep her opinions to herself.  Last week she struck out at celebrities that lie about any cosmetic surgery they’ve had done, going to far as to call them “lying b**tches”!

In a fit of vitriol, the America’s Got Talent judge slammed celebs that have procedures done but aren’t honest about it - and to tell you the truth I’ve got her back on this one. Like she says, why lie about it? There’s nothing wrong with wanting to make sure you look as good as you possibly can. Australian star Nicole Kidman came under fire in particular as Sharon pondered why the actress denied using Botox or other non surgical wrinkle relaxants when she was convinced that the fair skinned beauty does.

I read something that really caught my attention in the Daily Mail yesterday - journalist Kate Mulvey wrote a really interesting article about her experiences after receiving a facelift and the views people take on cosmetic surgery in general. (more…)

A few weeks ago, TV star Leslie Ash presented a documentary about non surgical cosmetic procedures called Face to Face. Not only was it an entertaining show, but it actually highlighted some important issues. Basically, Leslie investigated the number of people who could say that they were qualified to administer treatments like dermal fillers with very little training. (more…)

When the Spice Girls first exploded onto the music scene, I have to say I never thought it would be Posh Spice that would be most successful at withstanding the tests of time. Whatever you think of the self proclaimed fashionista you can’t deny that out of all the girls she has the highest profile - how much of that has to do with her husband is debatable. (more…)

If there’s one piece of small talk that gets on my nerves, it’s when people ask me to give them a smile. I mean, I like to think of myself as a pretty up-beat person and I think that’s reflected in my general appearance. But you can’t smile all the time can you? In fact, sometimes I find myself frowning a little more than I’d like to - as do many of my friends - and a furrowed brow is not the look I’m going for. (more…)

I hope Simon Cowell really loves the limelight seeing as he’s hardly ever out of it! This time around, I’ve been hearing about how his American Idol rival, Ryan Seacrest, has been mouthing off about Simon’s use of Botox during a television interview. (more…)

Over the years I’ve become quite a fan of glamour model and all round star Jordan. She only really caught my attention when she showed up on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here in 2004 and her budding romance with Peter Andre - now her hubby - had me and my old flatmate glued to the screen. Since then she’s brought her own brand of humour and plucky personality to a number of other absorbing reality shows - like the addictive Katie & Peter series. (more…)
