Girls Aloud Singer Launches New Make Up Range

Nicola-Roberts


Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts launched her Dainty Doll range of make up at London's department store Harrods.  Nicola has spent the past 18 months hard at work developing an entire range on her own, and its now going to be stocked in the prestigious hallowed make-up hall at Harrods.

Nicola's first foray into cosmetics flew off the shelves when it was launched last year - a specialist range made for girls, who like Nicola, have the most porcelain of skin tones.

The new collection sees updated packaging and a few new key products.  
'I am proud and excited to reveal my new make-up line, Dainty Doll, developed especially to enhance the beauty of fair skin,' Nicola said in a statement.

'Created using the finest quality, skin-loving formulas to help cover, perfect and care for your skin, my new Dainty Doll range makes it much easier for those with paler skin tones to achieve the ideal shade every time.'

Sharon is back in the game!

Sharon Osbourne is returning to The X Factor HOW EXCITING!article-1270499890938-08857F82000005DC-763937_304x302

Mrs O will be helping her old panelist buddy Louis Walsh with his acts at the judges house stage of the competition. Is this an other challenger for best X Factor outfit?

Sharon quit the show two years ago following the addition of a 4th judge: Dannii Minogue. However Sharon was not too happy about her new rival, and she wasn't shy about  telling the world her opinions of Dannii either.

She later went on to quit because of Miss Minogue's 'iceberg' vibes.

"I got physically sick with the stress and the pressure," Sharon explained. "Nothing is worth that. I went through so much hurt and that was the biggest factor in me leaving the X Factor. Dannii was 99.9% of the reason."

Sharon was replaced by the nations sweetheart: Cheryl Cole (or is it  Tweedy now?). Cheryl went on to be the first judge to win the X factor twice in a row!

Alligator Loose In New York

Alligator in New York

 

Shoppers were stopped in New York when an alligator crawled out of a storm drain onto the street. Police were called and the 20in animal was caught and had its jaws taped safely shut.

Elizabeth Ferguson witnessed the event saying:"That's the craziest thing I've ever seen. "He was really small, but mean looking." .

Police spokesman James Duffy said: "It's a big mystery. It could have been dumped from a car or it could have come out of a sewer". 

We just want to know where the Mummy is?

The Beijing-Zhangjiakou highway in China, ia currently undergoing roadworks, (ironicly to alleviate conjestion caused by thousands coal trucks).  Causing  the worlds largest traffic build up!

However there is a positive to come from this: Local businesses are booming! Transporting lunches and snaks  (via bicycle) to the hungry truckers - Fast food saves the day!

Congratulations Mr and Mrs Bloom!

Miranda Kerr confirmed that she is 4 months pregnant to Spanish Vogue today!

"Yes. I'm pregnant. Four months along. I've always been open about wanting to be a mother one day, and I've always thought Orlando would be a great dad. I think having children and pregnancy is a part of life, I look at how models like Heidi Klum have done it and made it a part of their lives."Orlando-Bloom-and-Miranda-Kerr-SF

Miranda-Kerr-211x300With these two for parents, i think its safe to say its going to be one cute baby. Roll on January!

Orlando and Miranda started dating back in 2006 and were married in July. In a bid to keep the press away, Kerr cancelled her TV show in Australia at the last minute.

"David Jones very graciously released me during this period so we could celebrate an intimate ceremony and honeymoon together."

What a happy start to Friday?!
