Whitney Port Sweetens Sydney
Whitney Port landed in Sydney earlier this week to help out with two events – one to support our sweet tooth, and another to support a worthy cause.
Last night the former The City star stepped out in a candy pink dress for the opening of Magnum’s Pleasure Store – a pop-up shop which offers punters the chance to create their own unique magnum and one that will likely end in a few trips to the dentist!
After an indulgent night chowing down on Magnums (the star told Sydney Confidential her ultimate Magnum creation is honeycomb pieces, rock sea salt, and chocolate flakes), the 28-year-old fashion designer and woke up and headed to the Shangri-La hotel to show her support for the Pink Hope cancer charity.
This is Whitney’s fourth visit to Australia, to promote her own fashion line, Whitney Eve, and her various collaborations.
We caught up with Whitney after the brunch for an exclusive interview in which she spoke about her personal style, her upcoming collaboration with Cooper St and much more. Stay tuned for the interview!
Emma Roberts Arrested for Domestic Violence
Last night news hit that Emma Roberts had been arrested on suspicion of domestic violence on July 7. Reports emerged that the star got in to a physical fight with her boyfriend, Evan Peters, at a Montreal hotel room and, after a passer-by heard the disturbance, police arrived to find Peters, 26, with a bloody nose and a bite mark causing them to take Roberts in to custody.
It has now been confirmed that Roberts was released after questioning and the couple issued a statement to US Weekly saying that they had moved past the fight and that, “It was an unfortunate incident and misunderstanding. Ms Roberts was released after questioning and the couple are working together to move past it.”
Photographs from Tuesday that show Peters consoling his girlfriend, who is appears distressed and has tears streaming down her face, have now been released to the public, confirming both the dramatic nature of their relationship and that they have managed to reunite despite what was clearly a very serious fight.
The pair have been together since Spring of 2012 and a sources have described their relationship as very dramatic, extreme and passionate.
2013 MTV VMA Nominees Announced
The 2013 MTV Video Music Awards nominees were announced overnight and we have two obvious leaders – one a comeback king and the other a new face.
Justin Timberlake is the first, proving that his hiatus did nothing but enhance his career. With six nominations, including Video of the Year, Best Male Video, and Best Pop Video, we’ll be very surprised if he walks out of the Barclay’s Center empty handed on August 25!
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis will be competing with JT on Video of the Year amongst others. They were the only other artist to score as many nominations and are sure to take out something for their catchy ‘Thrift Song’ track.
Other top nominees included Robin Thicke, Pink, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Beyonce, and Katy Perry.
We’re looking forward to the 2013 VMAs – they’re always a whole lot of fun!
