Mariah Carey Welcomes Twins With Hubby Nick Cannon

Mariah Carey Welcomes Twins

Just in case you haven’t heard, The Carey-Cannon Buns have come out of the oven. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary Saturday (Has it been that long already?!) by becoming parents to a baby girl and boy today. The stiletto-lovin’ songbird a new mom just in time for Mothers’ Day.

Guess that means we’ve seen our last topless “Nick and Mariah Posin’ Nude with Belly Bump” magazine cover?

Carey, 41, delivered the healthy tots at 12:07 PM EDT at an undisclosed hospital in Los Angeles, the star’s longtime rep, Cindi Berger, told The Associated Press. Nick and Mariah’s baby girl was reportedly born first, weighing 5 pounds, 3 ounces, and was 18 inches long; while her brother was next, at 5 pounds 6 ounces, and was 19 inches.

Berger said the couple was calm while en route to the hospital in their Rolls-Royce Phantom, as they believed Mariah’s labor pains were a false alarm. But the contractions proved to be the real deal, Nick, 30, was reportedly so nervous he had to be guided to the maternity ward by a nurse after he went to the wrong department.

So much for keeping your cool!

“Nick was very nervous and Mariah was completely calm. Mariah thought it was another soft labor and Nick was driving her to the hospital and she very calm and the music was blasting. When they walked into the hospital, [Nick] was going the wrong way and they nurse redirected them to go the maternity ward, and I said to her, ‘that’s right out of I Love Lucy,’ and she laughed,’” Berger told The AP.

Berger added that the new parents fittingly played Carey’s hit song “We Belong Together” shortly after the twins’ arrival.

Sanjay Dutt's Role in 'Pri and Me' More Than a Cameo


Sanjay Dutt's role in Pri and Me, headlining Adah Sharma and debutant Dev Goel, is more than a cameo, a source tells Sawfnews.com exclusively.

Dutt plays a full-on character role as a police inspector. He has been shooting with the film's unit at Mehboob studio in Bandra for the past five days and will likely take another ten days to complete his part of the shoot.

As reported earlier, Sanjay has put his home production Rascals on hold to shoot for Pri And Me, as a favor to Jyotin.

Sanjay and Jyotin go way back a long way having worked together in films like Inaam Dus Hazaar (1987), Zahreeley (1990) and Safari (1999).

When Jyotin requested Sanjay to be a part of his film, Sanjay immediately agreed and gave his dates. Sanjay recalls how Jyotin had stood by him during his life's dark hours; Jyotin made Safari with Sanjay when the star faced serious charges under anti-terrorism laws for illegal possession of arms.

Pri and Me additionally stars talent powerhouses Anupam Kher and Juhi Chawla.

The film is a romantic comedy about two best friends. Adah plays 'Pri' short for Priyanka in the film.

"Nudity is something that I wouldn't be comfortable with. Even if I play the most complex and weird parts which are raunchy or whatever it has to be, the portrayal of a character is to a point where it is aesthetically done. It has to be something that I won't be averse to showing my parents. I have to be able to sit with them and watch it."

As for her on-screen lesbian kiss, the pre-requisite is the girl has to be hot, she said.

Gosh! We aren't going to sleep well tonight visualizing that!

Double Dhamaal Team Goes Amok with Sanjay Dutt's Segway


Sanjay Dutt's Segway PT was a source of thrills on the set of Indra Kumar's comedy Double Dhamaal, headlining Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Kangana Ranaut and Mallika Sherawat.

The Segway PT, a US product, is a two-wheeled, self-balancing electric vehicle. The name "Segway" is a homophone of "segue" (a smooth transition, literally Italian for "follows") while "PT" denotes personal transporter.

The gadget lover that he is, Sanjay Dutt had recently purchased a Segway that he always keeps in his vanity van. It was just a matter of time before Sanjay's boisterous co-stars in the film - Arshad, Riteish, Ashish and Jaaved – stumbled on Dutt's secret. When they did, the Segway became anyone's and everyone's property. Even the director and crew members wanted to try it.

Soon, everyone had perfected the art of riding it. Indra Kumar even performed some of his directorial duties mounted on it.

Segway PT, a common site on US airports and corporate buildings, was made popular by Kevin James in his 2009 crime comedy Paul Blart: Mall Cop in which he is a mall security guard who makes his rounds riding a Segway PT.

Double Dhamaal is a sequel to 2007 comedy Dhamaal. The film is due in theaters on June 10.

Lindsay Lohan Will Plead No Contest to Misdemeanor Theft

Lindsay Lohan Will Plead No Contest

Lindsay Lohan intends to come good on a statement that she made on Jay Leno earlier this week that she is a big girl who is ready to take responsibility for her actions.

Lindsay, who has already been sentenced to 120 days in jail and 480 days of community service for violating the terms of her probation in a 2007 DUI case, will plead no contest to a misdemeanor theft charge for stealing a necklace.

Lindsay's trial for theft is scheduled to start May 11, but according to TMZ, she and her lawyer Shawn Holley will enter the no contest plea next week.

Sources tell TMZ, that Lindsay's legal team is hoping Lindsay's plea will not entail additional jail time for her, as is typical in such cases.

Lindsay has said that she will appeal against the 120 day jail sentence for DUI violation, but legal experts believe that will only buy her time; eventually the sentence will be upheld.

When that happens, Lindsay will probably stay in jail for three weeks, LA. County Sheriff's spokesperson Steve Whitmore tells TMZ.

Katrina Kaif Miffed by Prakash Jha's Praise of Deepika Padukone

Katrina Kaif Miffed

rakash Jha went overboard praising Deepika Padukone over Twitter on April 28, of all things about the speed with which she dubbed for her role in Aarakshan.

"Yesterday, last day of dub with @deepikapadukone She finished dubbing in record time! #only4days #aarakshan," he tweeted.

Now, the time taken to dub for a role would depends on factors such as the length of the role, the depth of emotions to be portrayed, the extent of preparation by the actor, etc. So, what exactly did Jha mean by record time? How many days should she have taken, or would another star have taken?

Some of Jha's Twitter fans wondered whether there was more to his tweet than was immediately evident.

Apparently, not just Jha's Twitter fans, even Katrina Kaif wondered whether Jha was trying to say something more. Unlike Jha's Twitter fans Katrina's concerns were more legitimate, because, hold your breath, she had taken 40 days to dub for her role in Rajneeti!

The last thing Katrina wants is a comparison between her and Deepika, considering they share an ex!

A source tells us, Katrina actually picked up the phone and called Jha to express her displeasure.

While we don't know what transpired during the phone conversation, we are sure Jha, a relative newcomer on Twitter, who become active on the social networking site just a fortnight back, has learnt a valuable lesson about being on a public platform – there is peril even in praise.

Neither the location of their private weekend, nor their honeymoon is being revealed and the couple have asked that their privacy be respected during the coming weekend and during their honeymoon.

Ron Ron of Jersey Shore Divalicious Male Celebrity

Ron Ron of Jersey Shore Divalicious Male Celebrity
Possibly the male star about whose bodily functions we know the most (why was Ronnie bleeding out of his asshole?), Jersey Shore’s spurned lover tops of the list of exemplary reality-television masculinity. During the continuous break-up session that was last season, his profound and ceaseless talk of souls rivals St. Augustine in vigor. In addition to being one of the most dramatic members of the house on the Shore, Ron Ron boasts a namesake drink that is now the basis of certain specialized cocktails. Dan Ackroyd and his limited-edition Crystal Skull Vodka now have some competition.

James Franco Divalicious Male Celebrity

James Franco Divalicious Male Celebrity
Though Franco isn’t the first star to attend a nationally televised event quite obviously blazed, he’s certainly the most recent, which makes him the talk of the press and the hero ofthis year’s Oscars. It’s one thing for an actor to be compared to such a romantic symbol as James Dean, but it’s another thing entirely to consistently stage photo shoots in order to deliberately court such comparison while maintaining the exact same look and hairstyle as James Dean. But to be fair, how else could he have followed his lead as the author of a set of the most boring short stories since Henry James?

Joaquin Phoenix Divalicious Male Celebrity

Joaquin Phoenix Divalicious Male Celebrity
The briefly sane actor who made waves in films like Gladiator and To Die For has since become famous for getting lost in the shuffle — as publicly as possible. Not content to come up with his own shtick, he stole pretty much every idea Andy Kaufman ever had and pretended to go seriously off the edge for more than a year. And just to make sure everyone noticed, he made a film about this dropping under the radar and nearly refused to be saved by Werner Herzog in a car accident while pretending to seriously pursue a rap career. In the typical mistake of a super-diva, Phoenix overestimated his own fame, and the whole ideal was met with little more than some confused yawns.

Charlie Sheen Divalicious Male Celebrity

Charlie Sheen Divalicious Male Celebrity
Where to begin with the man Sheen? Since his wars with tabloid indecency sparked a public battle cry, the beleaguered star now goes around carrying a Violent Torpedo of Truth around with him, like some magnificent burden. And yet where will the torpedo land? In all its delicious absurdity the tantalizing saga of Sheen seems to perfect to be real. There’s really no way to describe Sheens “meltdown” using mere mortal words, so here are some quotes that reach a Salvador Dali level on the Confusing vs. Awesome scale:
On Whether he was on Drugs:“I am on a drug – it’s called Charlie Sheen. It’s not available because if you try it, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body.”;
On Chuck Lorre: “I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly I have defeated this earthworm with my words — imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists.”;
On AA: “[A.A.] was written for normal people, people that aren’t special. People that don’t have tiger blood, you know, Adonis DNA.”
The scariest thing about Charlie Sheen’s meltdown is that, in a world as crazy as ours, he almost makes sense.

Christian Bale Divalicious Male Celebrity

Christian Bale Divalicious Male Celebrity
Apart from pulling a Vanilla Ice circa 2007 on the set of Terminator Salvation, Christian Bale also can’t seem to turn away any excuse to take on the persona of an under-fed person. To which the question must arise — is it because he knows it will get him an Oscar nomination, or because having a good six-week fast is a habit he simply enjoys? Maybe he just likes admiring himself in the mirror?

Kanye West Divalicious Male Celebrity

Kanye West Divalicious Male Celebrity
There has probably never been a more aimlessly talented fame whore in all of human history than Kanye West. And because humanity did something to piss off God (it might have had something to do with that whole “the 20th century” thing), he saw fit to give us Kanye right at the advent of social media. His tweets say it all, even without the Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, he’s a queenly force to be reckoned with. From his abstractly blaming women for using pregnancy as a cash-ploy, to the infamous Taylor Swift incident, to his consciously family-unfriendly album cover, Kanye knows how to be talked about as long as such a thing as social media exists.

Sebastian Horsley Divalicious Male Celebrity

Sebastian Horsley Divalicious Male Celebrity
A man who needed attention badly enough to warrant a literal “nailed-to-a-cross” crucifixion of himself surely warrants the title of ‘diva’. Though Horsley himself would have preferred ‘dandy’. Horsley led a checkered life that involved outrageous artistic statements, drug use, and writing about his love of prostitutes — going as far as to fantasize about dying in a prostitutes arms. The exceptionally dressed, libertinous diarist of our times lived a sparkling life and died in a vague manner, as one following Horsley’s career could have only seen as befitting the ‘Dandy in the Underworld’ who always seemed too big, or too fabulous, for the Upper World. An annoying diva to some, but when New Jersey denies you entry based on your “lack of moral turpitude” and Stephen Fry speaks affectionately at your funeral maybe you’re doing something right.

Pete Doherty Divalicious Male Celebrity

Pete Doherty Divalicious Male Celebrity
In every diva’s life there runs some thread of tragic undoing. Pete Doherty’s drink of choice: overexposure. Famous more for his relationships than his own accomplishments, Doherty has been the darling of the tabloids in the mid-to-late ‘naughts for his entanglements with heroin, Kate Moss, and ex-fellow Libertine Carl Barat. Though it must be said that amidst the endless stream of drugs and models, there lies a genuinely interesting person, which is more than one can say for most of the poster-boys and girls of People magazine. Though this doesn’t excuse the fact that he somehow bends the laws of physics and manages to look like an even more bedraggled Robert Pattinson.

Simon Cowell Divalicious Male Celebrity

Simon Cowell Divalicious Male Celebrity
Cowell is, in polite terms, a kind of cultural critic. In less polite terms, he is someone who needs to get his rocks off by giving young idiots a severe (and usually verbose) dressing down. Who could forget his legendary take-down of Kristy-Lee Cook in season seven, telling her she sounded like Dolly Parton on helium. The thing that catapults Cowell from cultural critic to diva is not only did he have strong opinions on amateurs far below his pay grade, but he crafted one of the most popular shows in television history around his ability to tell people how much better he is than them. It doesn’t take much to insult Cowell’s delicate artistic sensibilities, and so one must wonder how he ever thought that being a critic of any kind would be an ideal profession for one so already disappointed with the constant mediocrity of the world?

Adam Lambert Divalicious Male Celebrity

Adam Lambert Divalicious Male Celebrity


With his borrowed Boy George makeup and Kesha-esque hairstyles, Adam Lambert is a diva of the highest order. What’s more, no coming-out story could be more touchingly staged than Lambert’s pelvis grinding makeout session in 2009 which announced him as gay to the world — or the teensy part of the world that didn’t already know. In more recent antics, when Lambert tried to crash the Monster Mother’s birthday party he was swiftly ejected for his drunken unruliness. Unbelievably, Lady Gaga seems to still possess the ability to judge some behavior as too self-indulgent.

Gerard Way Divalicious Male Celebrity

Gerard Way Divalicious Male Celebrity
The lead singer of My Chemical Romance has had a storied history with alcohol and womanizing, but if we were going to talk about rock stars struggles with booze and babes we could simply say “Every one of them ever” and head out for lunch. The difference is most artists don’t let that rank over-confidence infect their lyrics, while Gerard Way makes smarmy rock ballads about cancer patients. Like the Nicholas Sparks of pop-rock for 13-year-olds, MCR’s lyrics drip with unearned self-importance. Unable to craft anything artistically nuanced, Way has the arrogance to ham-fistedly use mega-tragedies (cancer, 9/11, death in Iraq are popular ones) to make his point. Also while other celebrities have to change their look and adapt to recent ideas of what is fashionable, Gerard Way is enough of a diva that he apparently looked up the word “Emo” in 2003 and hasn’t changed since.

Eminem Divalicious Male Celebrity

Eminem Divalicious Male Celebrity
Eminem has taken many approaches to his own strange celebrity. From shock tactics with his early violent rhymes to the later, Wildean approach of declaring he is no more than whatever we say he is, and recently to his (kind of lame) rivalry with rapper Nick Cannon. Despite all this, Eminem falls into a strange “So Diva He’s Not Diva” category. While most other divas are perpetually sporting a self-congratulating smirk, Eminem reportedly hasn’t smiled since he was 14.

Tom Cruise Divalicious Male Celebrity

Tom Cruise Divalicious Male Celebrity
An overenthusiastic Oprah appearance changed the public notion of one of the most generic stars in Hollywood, whose life henceforth became a public charade of matrimonial bliss. Cruise’s relationship to celebrity is noxious at best, but one thing must be said — he’s never above expressing his true emotions, publicly and for syndication.

Jonathan Franzen Divalicious Male Celebrity

Jonathan Franzen Divalicious Male Celebrity
High dramatics may not be completely uncalled for in a prose writer. But for the writer named ‘The Great American Novelist’ by Time, it’s hardly appropriate. Franzen has gone on several “scare-rants” about how dense, complicated literature is ruining the public’s ability to appreciate good writing. To be fair, Jonathan Franzen is talking about Ulysses, but, in a world where the most-read books are incoherent messes about vampires and abstinence, his rants seem like whiny rambling about the imperceptible differences between complex literature and slightly more complex literature. Writer Ben Marcus summed up Franzen (and perhaps all Divas) by saying Franzen is “eager for fame, but hostile to the people who confer it.”

Morrissey Divalicious Male Celebrity

Morrissey Divalicious Male Celebrity
Who but a true genius — and true diva — would risk an all-too-vast and certain public adoration by making hopelessly anachronistic racist comments where the press could hear them? None but the man himself, whose passion for morbidity and animal rights have factored into his eccentric appeal for well on decades now. One always looks forward to the next installment in the Morrissey saga, for it is never less than fascinating. As Russell Brand can attest, ‘the man speaks in epigrams’. Witty, elegant epigrams like “The Chinese are a subspecies”

Jones Makes a Baby Announcement


Mad Men beauty January Jones has confirmed she is pregnant. The actress’s PR has issued a statement to People magazine in the US saying, “January Jones is happy to announce she is expecting her first child this fall.” However, there is no confirmation so far on who the father is. January, 33, split from Saturday Night Live star Jason Sudeikis earlier this year and has kept a low profile on the dating scene since then. In X Men: First Class, January plays the White Queen who can transform her body into diamonds. The movie also stars Scottish actor James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier. The film will be released this summer.

Prince William & Princess Kate Middleton First Kisses

Prince William & Princess Kate Middleton First Kisses
Were you up in time to catch the Royal Wedding? Princess Kate Middleton became the Duchess of Cambridge Friday as the world watched her tie the knot with Britain’s Prince William in a traditional ceremony at London’s Westminster Abbey. Wearing a stunnng ivory gown, complete with dipped neckline, the Duchess shared not one—but two—kisses with her Duke on the balcony of Buckingham Palace shortly after the conclusion of the 11 AM wedding ceremony.

Now on to the dress! Kate selected a design by Sarah Burton, protege of late fashionisto Alexander McQueen, for her big day. The dress is made of ivory and white satin gazar with lace applique floral detail, insiders say. In a statement Friday, St James’s Palace said McQueen was chosen for the “beauty of its craftsmanship” and its “respect for traditional workmanship and the technical construction of clothing”.

Burton, creative director of McQueen, says crafting the royal wedding gown has been the highlight of her career.

“It has been the experience of a lifetime to work with Catherine Middleton to create her wedding dress, and I have enjoyed every moment of it. It was such an incredible honour to be asked, and I am so proud of what we and the Alexander McQueen team have created.”

Kate worked closely with Burton to design the frock, which looks shockingly similar to the one actress-turned-princess Grace Kelly wore when she married Prince Rainier of Monaco back in 1956.



Prince William and Kate Middleton leave London's Westminster Abbey on Friday


Prince William and Catherine Middleton wed at London's Westminster Abbey on Friday, April 29, in front of a select gathering. The wedding was viewed over TV by millions across the world.

Following their wedding they became Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as earlier in the day, The Queen had conferred the Dukedom on Prince William of Wales.

William was dressed in the uniform as a Colonel of the Irish Guards, in Guard of Honor Order with a Forage Cap. He wore a gold and crimson sash, and gold sword slings, both of which are worn in the presence of a Member of the Royal Family. The Prince did not wear a sword.

The uniform was fitted by Kashket and Partners.

Catherine, 29, arrived at the Abbey in a Burgundy and black colored Rolls Royce accompanied by her father.

She wore a wedding dress designed by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. The long-sleeve lace, ivory and satin gown, with a V neckline had a voluminous skirt that echoed an opening flower, with white satin gazar arches and pleats. The train measured 2m 70cm.

The ivory satin bodice of the dress was narrowed at the waist and padded at the hips, drawing on the Victorian tradition of corsetry and a hallmark of Alexander McQueen's designs.

William, 28, vowed, "I, William Arthur Philip Louis, take thee, Catherine Elizabeth, to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse. For richer, for poorer. In sickness and in health. To love and to cherish, till death us do part."

He then slipped a wedding ring, fashioned from a piece of Welsh gold that The Queen gave to him shortly after his engagement, on Middleton's finger, saying, "With this ring, I thee wed."

Prince William's Best Man Prince Harry carried the ring made by Wartshki to Westminster Abbey.

As per the couple's wish, there was only one ring.

The couple said a prayer they wrote themselves.

"God our Father, we thank you for our families; for the love that we share and for the joy of our marriage.

In the busyness of each day keep our eyes fixed on what is real and important in life and help us to be generous with our time and love and energy.

Strengthened by our union help us to serve and comfort those who suffer. We ask this in the Spirit of Jesus Christ. Amen. "

As is the Royal tradition, the couple didn't kiss immediately after being pronounced man and wife. The kiss was to come later.

Following the wedding, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge rode a carriage from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace.

After arriving at the Palace, the couple stepped out onto the balcony as crowds surged towards Buckingham Palace to view their first public kiss following their royal wedding.

The couple were joined on the balcony by the Royal family. At 1:25 pm, William lightly kissed his new bride on the lips as fans below and viewers around the world held their breath and savored the fairy-tale setting. Cheered on by fans, William kissed Catherine a second time letting the kiss linger a little longer.

Kate Middleton and Prince William Marriage Pictures

Kate Middleton and Prince William MarriageAfter months of waiting, William and Kate finally tied the knot at Westminster Abbey today. She arrived clutching the hand of her father Michael as her sister and maid of honour Pippa held the long train on her flowing dress. As the happy couple exchanged vows, William appeared to have trouble slipping the ring onto Kate’s finger. An estimated one million people lined the streets to catch a glimpse of them. Britain’s Prince William and Kate Middleton married at Westminster Abbey on Friday in a royal occasion of dazzling pomp and pageantry that has attracted a huge global audience and injected new life into the monarchy.Before the vows, a veiled Middleton, the first “commoner” to marry a prince in close proximity to the throne in more than 350 years, walked slowly through the 1,900-strong congregation to the swirling strains of Charles Parry’s “I Was Glad”.As they met at the altar William whispered to her, prompting a smile at the start of the ceremony. The Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams declared the couple married with the words: “I pronounce that they be man and wife together.”Middleton’s dress, the subject of fevered speculation for months in the fashion press, was a traditional ivory silk and satin outfit with a lace applique and long train.

HUGE CROWDS
Thousands of people from around the world were outside the abbey, many of them camping overnight for the best view of the future king and queen and fuelling the feel-good factor that has briefly lifted Britain from its economic gloom.Kate Middleton Prince William Marriage Pictures
“People watching this at home must think we’re completely mad, but there’s just no comparison,” said 58-year-old Denise Mill from southern England. “I just had to be here.”The crowd entered into the festive spirit on a chilly day by wearing national flags and even fake wedding dresses and tiaras. Hundreds of police officers, some armed, dotted the royal routes in a major security operation.Tens of thousands more people crammed the flag-lined streets of London to catch a glimpse of marching military bands in black bearskin hats, cavalrymen in shining breastplates and ornate carriages that will carry royal figures from the service.A large gathering is expected outside the queen’s London residence, Buckingham Palace, to cheer on the married couple as they appear on the balcony for a much-anticipated public kiss.For some, however, the biggest royal wedding since Diana married Prince Charles in 1981 was an event to avoid, reflecting divided opinion about the monarchy.”It’s just a wedding,” said 25-year-old Ivan Smith. “Everyone is going mad about it. I couldn’t care less.”Prince William Marriage Pictures

Prince William and Kate Middleton have their First Public Kiss


rince William and Kate Middleton have appeared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for their first public kiss.

Lady Gaga Feel “like a loser kid in high school

Lady Gaga Feel
Lady Gaga’s moment of weakness has been filmed, showing the hit maker drenched in tears backstage as she was getting ready for a show at Madison Square Garden in New York.

In the scene, which is intended for a video documentary covering her Monster Ball tour, the sobbing Gaga opens up about periodical onsets of self-doubt that smite at her and leave her completely spent.

The Born This Way singer shares: “I still sometimes feel like a loser kid in high school” – the feeling she has to battle every morning, reminding herself of her achievements and her high-profile status so she could bring down the blues and face the new day.

What is the reason behind these attacks? The artist can’t shake off the feeling that there are people who are out for her blood. And she gives her message to those who would like to see her destroyed that she won’t be destroyed. For she has a “kingdom” made up of her fans that is there for her and that is indestructible.

And there are other people who keep misjudging her for a manufactured artist because they are unable to see beyond Gaga’s wigs, outfits and make-up. They “shut down” instead of trying to understand.

So it’s an ongoing fight for the stage queen, a fight that she is involved in “for every kid like me who felt like I felt and feels like I still feel.” There are times, the Fame Monster artist continues, when it’s very hard for her to see herself as the music icon she is and it’s no longer enough for her to know she’s a winner for herself: she feels she has to be a winner for all of her fans.

The latest jab at her was comments that accused her of borrowing the theme for Born This Way from Madonna’s hit Express Yourself (1989). Lady Gaga snapped back that after the amount of music she wrote there was no need for her to try and put across such a gross swindle.

Lisa Wiik in Snowboarding


Another smokin’ hot babe courtesy of the kingdom of Norway, Lisa Wiik does that thing that Scandinavian chicks do where they’re blond and hot and like to partake in hardcore activities that make every man in a ten mile radius simultaneously threatened and alarmingly aroused. In Wiik’s case the hardcore activity is pure boardin’ action.Her achievements include a decent run in the Olympics and some good-sounding results on the touring circuit, but to be honest we mainly just can’t stop thinking about her stripped of all that snowboarding attire!

Linn Haug in Snowboarding

Well, we don’t know whether Linn Haug is so inclined, but we can certainly hope.The Norwegian beauty has been dazzling the piste with her excellent European looks and even smarter snowboarding skills since she turned pro the age of 15, racking up a list of honors in her snowy wake. Viking power sure looks perty.
