Katy Perry COVERGIRL and Gwen Stefani for OPI
Talk about two beautiful worlds colliding — two of our most-loved pop stars are bringing their fierce style sensibilities to two of our favourite beauty brands!
Katy Perry, who is currently on a high thanks to her increasingly-serious relationship with John Mayer and her album PRISM due to hit stores in less than a week, has even more news to celebrate as she’s just been announced as the latest addition to the COVERGIRL family.
Katy is said of the title, “In addition to music, I’ve always considered makeup to be a powerful creative avenue of self-expression. I’m honored to partner with COVERGIRL and share more colors and textures of my approach to beauty to inspire my audience.”
The 28-year-old will be showing off bold new beauty looks with products developed by COVERGIRL’s super Global Creative Director Pat McGrath and we can’t wait to see the fruits of their labour!
Meanwhile another bold beauty, Gwen Stefani, has some exciting beauty news of her own. The star, whose trademark red lips and nail art have been making us weak at the knees for years, has joined OPI to launch a range of seven limited edition nail lacquers set to hit stores in January 2014.
The collaboration came about by chance when Stefani met OPI’s Artistic Director Suzi Weiss-Fischmann at the 2013 Metropolitan Museum Costume Institute Gala and with shades like a bold red, two semi-matte satin finishes in gold and black, and a mirror finish chrome; it’s bound to be one fruitful chance encounter!
The Tinder Movie
Singles (and a few not-so-singles we’re sure) have taken to dating app Tinder like cats to catnip, and with download rates constantly on the rise. As if we needed any more proof this is one app that’s ‘made it’, a YouTube clip with Tinder as the subject is currently doing the rounds and we all know nothing says popular like a parody!
The video, made by the guys at Bad Weather Films, pokes fun at 2010’s The Social Network, and, of course, the ridiculousness of using an app (which is basically Hot or Not) to find a date with a story about the birth of Tinder.
Between the dramatic music, the perfect cast of characters, and the hilarious one-liners, we have to say the parody is pretty much perfect and we almost wish it were really being made into a full-length parody feature film.

Tony Abbott’s Daughters Make Hottest 100 List
Ever since Toby Abbott told the Big Brother house to remember he was the one, “with the not-bad-looking daughters”, all eyes have been on the three Abbott girls, who have been making more and more public appearances at events like the Randwick Randwick Grandstand launch party.
Now the trio of Abbott’s have, we must admit surprisingly, landed a spot on Maxim’s annual Hot 100 list!
Amongst the usual suspects like Jennifer Hawkins (sitting pretty at number one), Miranda Kerr, and Lara Bingle, sits the three daughters (who are listed as one person), ranking in at number eleven.
The score has the trio ranking as ‘hotter’ than Jesinta Campbell, Lara Bingle, Jess Gomes, Sophie Monk, and more. Although it does seem a little unfair given that there are three Abbott girls as one…
This is what the top ten looks like:
1. Jennifer Hawkins (model and TV presenter)
2. Samara Weaving (Home and Away actress)
3. Delta Goodrem (singer)
4. Miranda Kerr (model)
5. Havana Brown (DJ)
6. Jessica Gomes (David Jones ambassador and model)
7. Lauryn Eagle (boxer and model)
8. Yvonne Strahovski (actress)
9. Ellie Gonsalves (model and swim wear designer)
10. Sally Fitzgibbons (surfer)
