Rachel Uchitel is a 34-year old Vegas party hostess who might, or might not have been Tiger Woods’ mistress.
She has, as they say, got “previous,” having had a well-publicised affair with the actor David Boreanz.
When his wife was pregnant with his child.
Not a very sympathetic character, at first glance.
But there is always a human being, [...]

Vice sent Choire Sicha, blogger at The Awl, to check out a “Cougar Convention” at the Beverley Hills Crowne Plaza.
I suspect they hoped it would result in a “fun” satirical feature.
But no such luck.
Sicha reported, “This convention,” held on a Friday night earlier this month, was a way for “cougars” (women over 40 who are [...]

Somewhere, in London or Paris or NYC, in the kind of private members club where no-one weighing over 55kgs or wearing clothes valued less than R250 000, is allowed, a coven of fashion editors are gathered, eating lettuce leaves as if they were potato crisps and wetting themselves, because they are laughing so hard.
They are [...]

She is the star of the new Steven Soderbergh film, The Girlfriend Experience.
You might not have heard of her at all.
Or perhaps you’ve noticed her name in the press or seen a pretty picture of her on a website somewhere or other.
Perhaps you just thought she as another up and coming Hollywood starlet.
But ask a [...]

Look at his lily whites.
From hirsute and “manly” to …weedy and waxed, Mr Nasty has clearly been hitting the waxing salon.
And while he is notoriously image-conscious (he’s admitted to hitting the Botox himself and was the kindly adviser who suggested that BF Gordon Ramsay should get fillers “for The American Market,”) this “hand-job” is still [...]

This is NOT the most delightful male/female-related news with which to start the week.
So, (especially to Mamas,) my apologies, in advance and Happy Week guys.
Our friends over at the Daily Mail report that the sound of a baby crying, although the No 1 item on women’s lists (they don’t say!) didn’t even feature in the [...]

Regular readers to this blog will know that I am totally in love with Michele Obama.
I am also, masochistically involved with fashion and so, to my great shame, occasionally find myself reading fashion captions.
I know, I know. I should be reading The Economist.
But because of these two weaknesses, I did happen to read the caption [...]

Heidi Klum has been transformed into 1,000 little pieces in Editions Ricordi’s newest limited-edition puzzle, Couture Banquet. The puzzle features a Ruven Afanador photo originally taken for Vogue, Spain.
Just in time for the holidays, the puzzle comes in a silk bag and handmade wooden box with a red velvet interior.
A perfect gift for a fashionista [...]

The beach is calling me.
I am a Cape Town chick.
I wish the Cape’s beaches would call Clark Little, the Hawaii-based photographer, who travels the world showing these breathtaking images of breaking waves on big screens.
OK. The wave pics are beautiful, but and how do I say this without sounding, embarrassingly Twilight Mom, but the photographer, [...]
