Jan 13, 2012 Demi Moore in Carrera Sunglasses
Demi Moore has plenty to think about with the scandalous end to her marriage from Ashton Kutcher, thereby, de-throning her as the the queen of the cougars. But the media can't leave well enough alone and began focusing on something other than Ashton's reported infidelities--her "painfully" thinning physique. In the February issue of Harper's Bazaar, Demi admits that, indeed, she is thinner than usual lately, but who can blame her due to the circumstances. However, she's apparently accepted how she looks, even if the public hasn't, telling the mag, "that includes not just my weight but all of the things that come with your changing body as you age ..." She says people are actually telling her "You're too thin, and you don't look good." Like many women, getting to a state of "acceptance" about her body image wasn't easy. "I have had a love-hate relationship with my body," she explains.
Demi also (sort of) addresses her split in the interview. "I used to think that what scared me was the idea of being abandoned until someone said to me, 'Only children can be abandoned. Adults can't be abandoned because we have a choice.'" She says she dug deeper to understand what really scares her. "I think what scares me is not having the courage to reach my full potential." And with three failed marriages behind her, she reveals her greatest fear : ultimately finding out that "I'm really not lovable, that I'm not worthy of being loved…That there's something fundamentally wrong with me." Don't by into Demi, you're truly FAB, especially in boyfriend jeans, strappy boots, and these cool

Carrera Endurance/L/S, $102Jan 3, 2012 Anne Hathaway in Carrera Sunglasses
Anne Hathaway's incarnation of Catwoman has become somewhat of an intrigue among fans. She recently sat down with the LA Times on the set of the
Dark Knight Rises--the latest Batman installment due out in theaters this summer--to give some insight on her sexy new role and where she got her inspiration. "What's come before doesn't limit or even affect this new version," the Oscar-nominated actress said about the Catwoman role. "It doesn't affect me because each Catwoman is defined by the context of the Gotham City created around her." She explained that Catwoman is greatly influenced by Gotham and whoever is creating Gotham at the time, e.g., Michelle Pfeiffer's Catwoman was informed by Tim Burton's Gotham and Eartha Kitt was informed by Adam West's Gotham. "You have to live in whatever the reality of the world is and whatever Gotham is," Anne revealed.
For her ferocious feline part, Anne said she was deeply inspired by Batman creator Bob Kane's original inspiration for Catwoman: screen siren Hedy Lamarr. "I know this sounds odd, but her breathing is extraordinary," Hathaway said of the Golden Age star. "She takes these long, deep, languid breaths and exhales slowly." Anne goes on to illustrate her point saying there's a scenebof Hedy in the 1933 film
Ecstasy exhaling a cigarette and that she probably took five breaths during Hedy's single exhale. "So I started working on my breathing a lot," Anne said about prep for her role. Anne's breathy new Catwoman will be intriguing indeed, but in the meantime, she's casual-cool in short cowboy boots and sporty-chic

Carrera 12/S, $94Oct 11, 2011 Jaime King in Carrera Sunglasses
There's a new Southern Belle (well, "diva" may be more appropriate) in town from the new CW series
Hart of Dixie. Jaime King's character Lemon Breeland is the quintessential Southern woman — with a big helpin' of attitude. But Jaime says there's a world of hurt inside her. "You find out that Lemon's mother left her when she was 16 years old, so she has a really big hole there," she tells TVGuide.com. "This huge desire to be perfect, have people like her and to be the perfect woman comes from her thinking that maybe it's something she did that caused her mom to leave." In the series premiere, Lemon meets new-girl-in-town Zoe Hart (played by Rachel Bilson) and is anything but nice to her. Besides the drama between Lemon and Zoe, there's heightened emotional tension between Lemon and the town mayor, Lavon (played by Cress Williams). As the season progresses, viewers will learn that Lemon and Lavon once had an affair--and although she is now engaged to the hunky town attorney, George (played by Scott Porter) Jamie adds that Lavon may, in fact, be Lemon's true love. "When you see Lemon and Lavon together, you see the real Lemon, her vulnerability is all there."
While the series is complete with its love triangles and small-town drama, Jaime says there's lots of humor, too. You can catch Jaime in
Hart of Dixie Mondays on the CW. In the meantime she's looking mighty fine in these sleek

Would you believe actor Ryan Gosling started as a mousketeer at age 12 on the Mickey Mouse Club alongside Britney, Justin, and Christina? Well, he's come a long way since, and at 30, has Academy Award (for
Half Nelson) and Golden Globe (for
Lars and the Real Girl and
Blue Valentine) nominations under his belt. Though he has built a bit of a rep for playing misfits in independent films, he has also tackled commercially successful movies, including 2004's romantic hit
The Notebook. This year you'll find him in a whopping three mainstream films--
Crazy, Stupid, Love, Drive and the upcoming, much-buzzed-about political drama
The Ides of March with George Clooney due out in theaters tomorrow.
In an interview with the UK's The Times, hunky Ryan revealed he expects his golden years to arrive sooner rather than later. "I've been doing this since I was 12... I don't want to act much longer," he told the paper. Additionally, Ryan revealed he has fatherhood on the brain. "I'd like to be making babies but I'm not, so I'm making movies," he told the paper, via E!. "When someone comes along, I don't think I'll be able to do both and I'm fine with that. I'll make movies until I make babies," he quipped. Could his current love Eva Mendez be "the one?" No question about it, we love his rugged sporty style in these classic

Carrera 14/S, $94Sep 22, 2011 Kris Humphries in Carrera Sunglasses
Hmmm. Turns out it may not just be Kim Kardashian's sisters that Kris Humphries has rubbed the wrong way. The former University of Minnesota star and new Mr. Kardashian apparently has a long history of bad first impressions dating all the way back to when he took an official visit to B-ball powerhouse Univ. of Kansas during his senior year of high school. In a snippet from the soon-to-be-released book "Beyond the Phog: Untold Stories from Kansas Basketball's Most Dominant Decade," former guard Keith Langford told author Jason King of Yahoo! Sports why Kris never became a Jayhawk. Keith said he and his teammates were so disgusted with Kris' arrogance that they encouraged then-Kansas coach Roy Williams to stop recruiting him. He explained that when Kris visited the school, he apparently told everyone that he'd be the leading scorer as a freshman and that the rest of the team would all have to take a backseat to him. (ouch!). Although a top recruit at the time, Coach Williams heeded his team's concerns about Kris not meshing well with the program and eventually turned the 6-foot-9 star down. (wah wah wah)
But in defense of the newest member of the Kardashian clan, Kris seems to have matured a bit since his younger days. His former coach still thinks highly of him. Ex-Minnesota coach and current Long Beach State coach Dan Monson reconnected with Kris back in March when the NBA forward called to personally invite him to his wedding. Coach Monson told ESPN.com that Kris said: "I've been thinking a lot about you. I'm in a really good place professionally. I've met somebody special. I've been reflecting back, and you had a lot to do with that. I never got a chance to thank you." Awww…we're willing to give this hunk a chance (and so should his sister-in-laws)--especially in these sporty-chic

Carrera 5530/S, $110Sep 6, 2011 Taylor Lautner in Carrera Sunglasses
Taylor Lautner and Dwayne Johnson may soon face off on the big screen. The actors are reportedly in "early talks" to appear in Relativity Media's
Goliath, a source close to the project told Access Hollywood. The
Twilight Saga heartthrob would play the role of David, the shepherd boy-turned-giant-slaying future king in the Biblically-based film, and Dwayne would tackle the role of Goliath, the menacing warrior sent to destroy the Israelites. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Scott Derrickson (
The Exorcism of Emily Rose) is set to direct the project. But Taylor fans won't have to wait for
Goliath or even
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1, as the the 19-year-old hunky star can soon be seen in the action thriller,
Abduction, alongside real-life girlfriend Lily Collins, which hits theaters on September 23.
Taylor dished in the September issue of VMAN that there are a lot of perks to being a part of the
Twilight franchise -- a ton of adoring fans, invites to exclusive Hollywood parties, the opportunity to book more high-profile roles -- but there is a downside, too. "When I am traveling the world promoting the films, I say I am on vacation, but it's not really true, I guess," he tells the mag. "When I go to a beautiful city I spend the whole time in a hotel room and then I am back on a plane to the next place." He continues that because of his busy work schedule he rarely finds time to kick back and relax. "If I'm not filming, I'm promoting, and if it wasn't Twilight, it was a different movie, so it got really busy," he says. "I hang out with my friends, family, and kind of just -- I don't even know. It's like, when I am not filming, it seems like -- I don't even know what I do." He does, however, seem quite versed in looking lip-smacking delish stepping out in these piping hot

We love us some Heidi Klum and we have an insatiable appetite for her beauty and style wares. She was recently spotted being photographed on a gorgeous Cancun, Mexico, beach for print and TV ad campaigns for her new fragrance, "Shine." Photographed by Nabil Elderkin, the beach was the perfect backdrop for the new scent. According to HK, she created her new perfume -- which has feminine notes of flowers, mandarin, pear, and vanilla -- to make women feel "playful, sensual, and radiant." And, of course, there's her amazing figure--it's hard to believe that the 38-year-super-model mogul has given birth to four children. Sigh...Shine by Heidi Klum will be available to the masses in September at CVS, Rite-Aid, Sears, Kohls, Kmart, and Walmart in 0.5 oz ($17), 1 oz ($28) and 1.6 oz ($35) sizes.
Speaking of her svelte bod, Heidi's Summer Run initiative with celeb trainer David Kirsch definitely paid off. She kept a log of her incredible 36 runs (131 miles!) on her AOL lifestyle blog for all to see--and get motivated. In addition to those early morning runs, the

After a year of marriage bliss, Hilary Duff just announced she and pro-hockey-hubby, Mike Comrie, are expecting their first child. She gushed on her official website Sunday: "I can't believe it has already been a year. Time really flies when you're having fun! We also want to share the exciting news that baby makes three! We are extremely happy and ready to start this new chapter of our lives. Thanks to everyone for the continued love and support throughout the years!" Seems like centuries since Hilary shot to fame on the Disney kid show

The baby announcement comes on the heels of the launch of Hilary's new series of ads for Danskin. Part of the athletic wear brand's "Move for Change" initiative, the actress joins other hot-bodied celebs like Padma Lakshmi, Jenny McCarthy and Christie Brinkley for a campaign that supports health programs for women and children.

The Hunger Games, in Michigan, Liam flew to Columbia to see Miley. They were also spotted meeting at airports throughout South America and Australia between breaks on legs of her
Gypsy Heart Tour. And, rather tellingly, the teen sensation took to Twitter to post romantic sentiments about Liam, repeatedly referring to him as " man" and " boo". AND just last week, the newly reunited couple were spotted having dinner at a local Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant in Ann Arbor, MI, where he is still filming and she's apparently taking a much-needed break.
Of course, there are more tweets: "In such a good place right now! So happy 2 finally enjoy what I've worked so hard for. Im loving & living MY life! No more BS." Come to think of it, there's certainly no BS in the way she's rocking these white-hot, sporty-chic shield-style shades. --rpuccia

Though his former Playboy Playmate wife and baby-mama, Kendra Wilkinson, soaks up more of the limelight, hunky pro-footballer Hank Baskett can certainly hold his own in front of the camera. A native of Clovis, New Mexico, Hank played college football for the University of New Mexico. As a college football player, Hank was a leading wide receiver and earned all-academic and All-Mountain West Conference honors. In 2006, he signed with the Minnesota Vikings but was traded during his rookie season to the Philadelphia Eagles. Hank completed the season with the Eagles with an impressive average of 21.1 yards per catch in 22 catches and two touchdowns.
In 2009, Hank famously met and married Kendra (six months later) and jumped on the reality-tv bandwagon chronicling their moves as he went from playing for the Philadelphia Eagles to the Indianapolis Colts, the birth of their son Hank IV, then back to the Eagles, and most recently back to the Minnesota Vikings, AGAIN. Oh well, guess it makes for great reality tv. But this time around, Kendra and lil' Hank will be staying put in L.A. in their brand-new house, as he heads back to Minnesota. Kendra's not ecstatic about living halfway across the country from her other half. "He's my everything," she says. "Being apart, we miss each other." Despite the challenges geography presents, the couple plans to still forge ahead with expanding their family. "The time is coming," Kendra recently gushed. "Hank's on the same page as me.

And expectations are that Khloe should do well in her new venture. She is one of America's most loved reality TV stars, according to Amplicate, an online opinion collating resource. Simply stated, people are loving on Khloe when they Tweet or post Facebook comments about her. Likely due to the fact that she's the strong-willed, opinionated, honest and vocal member of the Kardashian family. She also has a fairly open and honest relationship with her fans. She regularly updates her own blog and shares freely with fans--like admitting to feeling stung by those who criticize her weight and appearance.

True Blood costar Stephen Moyer announced their engagement less than one month ago yet have already done the deed! The couple, who had been dating since filming the pilot episode for their über-popular HBO vampire series in 2007, wed on August 21, 2010 in a tent at a private residence across the street from the beach in Malibu. That’s about as far away from Bon Temps, Louisiana as you could get!
It’s obvious that Anna keeps herself in shape, and here she is hitting the pavement in a pair of
Carrera sunglasses.

Aug 26, 2010 Mike (The Situation) Sorrentino in Carrera Sunglasses
Skeptics take note. Mike (a.k.a. The Situation) Sorrentino is capitalizing big time on his "15 minutes." The Hollywood Reporter just got the "sitch" on his finances: the 29-year-old stands to earn upwards of $5 million by 2011 and more than $10 million overall by this time next year. Now that can buy a boat load of tanning sessions! How you ask? The MTV Jersey Shore reality star who spawned a nation-wide frenzy on "Situation"-related puns, gets close to $60K an episode, event-appearance fees from $15K-$50K, and a percentage (reportedly in the double-digits) on all MTV "Shore"-related projects and swag. But wait, there's more. Based on his much-touted six-pack, he has developed an abs-focused fitness video, "The Situation Workout," and chewable-supplement line with GNC. He's signed on to endorse a new top-shelf vodka line that boasts another six-figure payday plus partial ownership. And, of course, he has a "GTL" (gym/ tanning/ laundry) app and a rap song on iTunes. It doesn't stop there. He has further endorsements with Vitaminwater and Reebok and he's even partnered with Gotham Books to pen his autobiography, "Here's the Situation," which a source said earned him a six-figure advance. Whew, not bad for a guy who spent his pre-"Shore" days as an assistant manager of a Staten Island fitness center and nights shaking his money-maker as a member of an exotic dancing revue, "All American Male." These Carrera shades are just the statement The Situation wants to make--all rockstar with a dash of sporty chic. Gotta hand it to the guy, he's stretched his 15 minutes of fame to at least 17. Fuggedaboutit. --rpuccia

Jun 26, 2010 Lady Gaga in Carrera SunglassesTake serious musical talent, add some David Bowie'esque theatrics, then toss in a whole lot of cray cray and you have Lady Gaga. Love her or hate her, there's no doubt she's got IT. But there's more behind the "mask" than meets the eye. She learned to play piano from the age of four, went on to write her first piano ballad at 13 and began performing at open mike nights in NYC by age 14. She attended 2 1/2 years at the prestigious New York University Tisch School of th Arts before dropping out to focus on her music career. During her early time at Interscope Records, she worked as a songwriter for
Britney Spears and labelmates
Fergie and the Pussycat Dolls. Between her debut album, The Fame, and follow-up, The Fame Monster, she has sold over 15 million albums and picked up two Grammys along the way. This pop diva's outrageous style is what really put her on the map. These fabulous, stand-out white
Carrera shades are right up her alley. They come in four other glam frame/lens hues including black/yellow and red. Now these are something to go gaga over. --rpuccia

Usher is indisputably one of the smoothest cats around. Everything about him oozes suave. Usher Raymond IV came onto the scene at the tender age of 13 when he competed on the TV show Star Search in the early '90s, where he was spotted by an A&R rep from LaFace Records and subsequently signed with the label. Since then, he's sold a zillion records, snapped up five Grammys, and been named Billboard Magazine #1 Hot 100 artist of the 2000s decade. As if that weren't enough, he started his own record label, US Records (instrumental in jumpstarting the career of teen sensation Justin Bieber), kicked in a reported $375M to be part owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball franchise, opened several restaurants, and hocks his own fragrances for men and women. He is the ultimate in cool wearing these slammin'
Carrera Endurance shades--available in three frame colors--blonde havana, crystal violet and matte black. With all that Usher has on his plate, OMG doesn't even begin to cover it.

Carrera Panamerika, $100May 28, 2010 Rihanna in Carrera SunglassesRiRi makes a fashion statement every she goes and we love that about her. She continues to push the style envelope on the red carpet and on the street. But, the Grammy-winning, Barbadian beauty has had her share of publicity nightmares, i.e. the Chris Brown shenanigans, and she handled them with relative grace and poise. She bounced back in top form with a smash hit album, Rate R, and world-wide tour (though she needs to watch those stage steps in her stilettos!). These Carrera Endurance sunglasses are so her--all-out flashy, confident and fun. Way to pick yourself up by the boot straps, girlfriend.

May 16, 2010 Britney Spears in Carrera Sunglasses
Quite frankly, it's hard not to oft wonder what happened to that cute lil' pig-tailed girl from the "Baby One More Time" video. Her world-wide pop-icon status, bazillions of record sales and music industry awards, clothing and perfume deals out the ying yang, and even a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame couldn't ward off all the cray cray she embarked upon. Between the marriage to Kevin Federline, the babies, the divorce from Kevin Federline, losing custody of her babies, Daddy taking over her bank account, and the paparazzi shenanigans (e.g., that famous head-shaving incident), it seemed things could never get back on track. But with a new hit album--Circus--and a new man in her life--her former Manager--Britney is well on her way to hitting her stride again. She certainly looks that way, anyway, in these rocker-chick-worthy white
Carrera Champion sunglasses. They also come in black and head-turning red frame colors. Oops, she's done it again.

Gwen Stefani is always top of mind when it comes to the most stylish women in Hollywood. A SoCal girl straight out of the OC, her surfer chick meets hip hop vibe was a style stand-out back in the early days of her mega-band No Doubt. Then, she went solo and took her style-maven status to whole new levels with the creation of fashion, accessories, and beauty brands Harajuku Lovers and LAMB. Both have grown into ginormous brands with a cult-like following. These white silver palladium
Carreras certainly solidify her top fashionista status. The shades come in a wide range of colors to match any outfit or mood. You'll get Gwen-worthy attention in these babies.
