Celebrity Gossip: Elton John throws a Party, while Brad and Angelina Get Away

Elton John's annual charitable Oscar party was the place to be after the Oscars. Victoria Beckham, Eva Longoria, Ben Stiller, Carrie Underwood, Kate Beckinsale and Chace Crawford were just a few of the stars who stepped out to attend John's 17th annual Oscar bash, which raised $4 million for AIDS by the end of the night. John even played "Benny and the Jets" for everyone, and in between all the fun, got serious.

"People are going through tremendous hardship," he said. "In this time of hardship, we are going to raise as much money as we possibly can."

Before the Oscars happened, however, it appeared Brangelina wanted to get away. Angelina and the girls were spotted shopping in Manhattan, while Brad Pitt took Maddox and Pax to Vegas for a boys-only getaway. They stayed at the Hard Rock Hotel, where Nintendo Wiis were delivered to their room, and then went to the MGM Grand to see the lions, the Cirque du Soleil's show "Ka," and In-N-Out Burger.

Brangelina's brood isn't the only one to take in Las Vegas. On February 12, several of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit models walked a red carpet before heading into LAX nightclub to celebrate the issue. Cover model Bar Refaeli, singer John Legend and models Melissa Haro, Tori Pravo, Jessica White and Kim Cloutier all strutted their stuff before partying the night away.

The SI models arrived in Vegas February 11 on the SI One, a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737 wrapped in an SI swimsuit issue image of cover model Bar Refaeli. She said that she found out her image would be on the airplane before she knew she would be on the cover of Sports Illustrated.

What's up next for the cover girl? Refaeli is very excited about a swimsuit line (naturally, for the swimsuit cover girl) with Hurley, and some of the profits from the swimsuits sold will go to charity. She also said she is in talks for TV appearances later this year.

Celebrity Style: Making a Statement With Shoes

Jan 27, 2009 by Tiffany B.

Celebrities are making more and more of a statement with their shoes. Their shoes are the main attraction on the red carpet. When looking for attention-getting shoes like the celebrities, think shoes that have spikes, crazy cut-outs, bows, flowers and studs. Celebrities such as Nicole Richie, Eva Longoria Parker and Fergie all like to sport the dramatic-statement shoes. One thing to remember when trying to follow this celebrity fashion trend, make sure that your shoes are comfortable and wearable if you are going to be wearing them all night.

If you aren't that interested in "notice me" shoes, how about a bold handbag to add to your outfit? Celebrities are still carrying around bold and dramatic handbags. No longer are plain black and brown handbags acceptable in Hollywood. No, you have to be like Blake Lively, Jessica Simpson or Paris Hilton and carry around a handbag that is a bold color or has unique accessories on it. Think bright pink like the bag that Alexander McQueenmakes or a geometric print handbag like Kate Spade designed. This fashion trend is definitely going to be carried into the spring months, because spring is known for color. So go ahead, take a leap and go for this celebrity fashion trend and you can act like you are Paris Hilton walking down the streets of Hollywood.

Celebrities like Rihanna, Nicole Richie and Miley Cyrus all love to make a statement with their jewelry. Look for big, chunky pieces of jewelry that sparkle and shine. Bracelets, necklaces, watches and even rings are popular choices among celebrities. To really follow this celebrity fashion trend, make sure that you are not adding too much jewelry to your outfit. You really want one or two key pieces that pop and make people take notice. If you wear too many big jewelry pieces, you may just get lost in them and that is not a celebrity fashion trend!
