OHMYGOSSIP — Gigi Hadid has pulled out of the 2017 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
The 22-year-old model has announced she will no longer be taking to the runway in Shanghai, China, for the lingerie giant’s annual fashion show, and whilst she hasn’t given a reason for her cancellation, she has insisted she’ll be supporting her fellow models “in spirit”.
In a tweet posted to her Twitter account on Thursday (16.11.17), she wrote: “I’m so bummed I won’t be able to make it to China this year. Love my VS family, and will be with all my girls in spirit!! Can’t wait to tune in with everyone to see the beautiful show I know it will be, and already can’t wait for next year! 🙂 x (sic)”
As of the time of writing, it is not known why the blonde beauty – who is in a relationship with musician Zayn Malik – decided to pull out of the show.
Gigi confirmed in August that she was due to return to the runway at this year’s fashion extravaganza, and admitted it was “a dream come true” to model for the brand.
She wrote on Instagram at the time: “Forever and ever and ever a dream come true to be asked back to the VS Show !!! (sic).”
Whilst Gigi won’t be strutting her stuff on the catwalk this year, her younger sister Bella, 21, is still expected to appear in the line-up alongside Victoria’s Secret Angels Alessandra Ambrosio, Candica Swanepoel and Adriana Lima.
Previously Bella had also shared the exciting news of her upcoming venture on her photo-sharing site.
She wrote: “@victoriassecret I am so excited!..!!!!Thank you @monica.mitro@10magazine @johndavidpfeiffer and of course the wonderful, incredible @ed_razek + everyone on the team for making this dream come true again..

OHMYGOSSIP — Alessandra Ambrosio has “never” been a “fan” of running.
The 36-year-old supermodel has admitted she never “really exercised” when she was younger, but since having Noah, five, and Anja, nine, she has had to change her fitness regime, and though she strongly dislikes the form of cardio, she is trying to incorporate it in her “everyday” work outs.
Speaking to ElleUK.com about her fitness programme, the brunette beauty said: “I think that my workout regime has changed more after giving birth to my children as I didn’t really exercise before. I think it’s very important to lead a healthy lifestyle, which includes a balanced diet and exercise.
I have never been a fan of running, but lately I’ve been doing it and also have figured out different ways to incorporate cardio in my everyday routine. Instead of running indoors I go for a run in my neighbourhood, take a hike with friends or play volleyball at the beach.
“I would say [I work out] an hour to an hour and a half a day. It all depends on what I’m doing that day. If I’m going on a hike or playing volleyball with my friends it might be longer but I don’t usually spend more than hour and a half in the gym.
“I usually focus on my glutes.”
But the catwalk icon will vary her training sessions, which sees her attend dance classes.
She said: “I love to do different classes and lately I have been doing Tracy Anderson Method because it’s fun and it feels more like a dance class than a work out. But, at the same time, it’s great exercise as it targets all muscle groups.”
But Alessandra believes a healthy eating plan is essential to help her stay in shape.
She said: “It all depends on the day and if I am working on set or working from home. For breakfast I usually have eggs and/or avocado toast and after my work out I usually grab a green juice followed by lunch where I usually have a salad along with some chicken or fish. For dinner I might go for sushi, or grill Brazilian BBQ at home. I also have some nuts or a protein bar in my bag all the times in case I get hungry while I’m running around.”
Alessandra is set to make her 17th appearance in the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, which will take place in Shanghai, China, on November 28, and she has admitte she still gets nervous “every time” she takes to the runway.
She said: “Every time but when you step on the stage and feel the energy of the room that all changes.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Lily Aldridge once plucked her eyebrows so only “four hairs” were left.
The 32-year-old model has revealed she once overdid her ablutions and “over-tweezed” her facial feature to the point only a few hairs were left on each brow, but the catwalk icon was not fazed by the beauty blunder because her Italian genes meant “everything grew back” swiftly.
Speaking to Allure Online about the mishap, the brunette beauty – who has five-year-old daughter Dixie with her husband Caleb Followill – said: “In high school, I over-tweezed my brows until I had about four hairs left on each one. Thankfully, I’m Italian with thick hair, so everything grew back. And I went through a goth phase, which looked terrible on me.”
And the fashion muse has revealed when she was a child she was desperate to have a bob haircut because “all” of the other girls had the style, but she hugely regrets that decision because she believes she looked like “one big circle”.
She explained: “When I was a kid, I got a bob because all of the other girls on my soccer team with straight hair had one, and so I wanted one. Now I know girls with thick, curly hair should not get bobs. My hair was like one big circle.”
Lily now prefers a “pretty, undone look” and will wash her dark tresses “every other day”, but will avoid putting heat on her hair in favour of air-drying her locks.
She explained: “I like a pretty, undone look. So I wash my hair every other day so it doesn’t get dried out, and I let it air-dry. If I want soft waves, I’ll braid it first.”
The Victoria’s Secret Angel has revealed she will also make a body scrub out of coffee and coconut oil, as well as a “DIY” face mask out of greek yoghurt and honey to maintain her flawless skin.
Speaking about her beauty hacks, she said: “I love making a body scrub with ground-up coffee and coconut oil. It’s really good for circulation, and it smells delicious. I also do a DIY Greek-yogurt-and-honey mask that softens your skin and helps reduce puffy eyes.
“Undereye patches are genius. From travelling, I get really puffy under my eyes. Klorane Smoothing and Relaxing Patches are a great ten-minute trick to look refreshed. They’re perfect for moms running on no sleep.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Olivier Rousteing loved the “challenge” of collaborating with Victoria’s Secret.
The 32-year-old fashion designer – who is the creative director of Balmain – has teamed up with the lingerie giant to create underwear sets for the brands upcoming fashion show, which will take place in Shanghai, China, on November 28, and the mogul has “very much enjoyed” working with the label and on a field he has not gained as much experience working in.
Speaking to ElleUK.com about his latest venture, the businessman said: “Number one: I always love a challenge. I’ve very much enjoyed getting to know, partnering with and learning from the experts who dominate areas where I haven’t really worked before – whether it’s beauty, technology or, now, lingerie.
“Two: I loved the challenge of bringing Balmain’s Parisian couture heritage and vision to a wider, more global world. We’ve done this in the past, of course, with some other very successful collaborations, and it’s exciting to bring a bit of our unique signature to a mainstream audience.”
Olivier also found it “fun” working with the Victoria’s Secret Angels, such as Alessandra Ambrosio, as well as Gigi and Bella Hadid , because he has collaborated with them before.
He continued: “Three: Of course, I love the VS team. I’ve worked so closely with so many of the Angels and it’s fun to work on a new collaboration with them again.
“Four: I knew it would be a lot of fun. And I was right!”
And Olivier has admitted he has “vivid memories” of the Victoria’s Secret fashion shows.
He said: “The same as everyone’s! Watching incredible woman own the runway in a way that’s so unlike the typical fashion show. I have such vivid memories of Giselle [Bündchen] and Tyra [Banks] – with their amazing smiles and incredible bodies – I loved how beautiful and empowered they were, and how they made it so clear that they were having such a great time.”
The Victoria’s Secret x Balmain creations will be available to purchase immediately after the catwalk show airs on November 29.

OHMYGOSSIP — Kylie Jenner has unveiled her new Kylie Cosmetics make-up collection.
The 20-year-old entrepreneur – who launched her eponymous beauty empire last year – has taken to social media to showcase the latest merchandise she has created, which include a Naughty and Nice eye shadow palette.
The brunette beauty posted a string of images on her Snapchat account of the two 14 eyeshadow collections.
She captioned an image of both items beside one another: “NAUGHTY OR NICE (sic).”

Though Kylie has given fans a glimpse into what she has been working on, the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has recently announced there will be a second drop to her Holiday Collection next month, which will be a “bunch of new products”.
Speaking previously, she said: “I have two collections, one I’m revealing tomorrow and one a little later, like next month.
“What I’m revealing is like kind of my traditional collections and then the next drop two will be a bunch of new products so I cannot wait that Kylie Cosmetic has never done before. I am actually wearing it right now.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Moss doesn’t consider herself a “gym bunny”
The 43-year-old supermodel believes eating healthy is “really important”, and though she “never” used to be an avid exercise enthusiast when she was younger because it made her feel “ill”, she has since changed her ways.
Speaking about how her lifestyle has changed over the years to the Guardian Online, the blonde-haired beauty – who has 15-year-old daughter Lila Grace Moss Hack – said: “Food is really important. I try to eat healthily. And I do cook, but not as much as I’d like to because I’m busy, but I cook a good roast. I do good breakfasts – eggs are my forte. I really enjoy food, proper food, but I do try to eat more healthily than I used to. I think as you get older you have to. When I was young I was so low maintenance I didn’t have to worry. Not what I ate, not about anything really. My skin looks better when I eat well, too. Obviously if you eat all that grease, skin just doesn’t look as healthy. I’ve really noticed an improvement since I’ve been more ‘on it’ with food – like eating salads and all that stuff – I never used to really eat salads. And now I’m like, juicing!
“I’ve never been a gym bunny or anything like that. I was always, like, ‘UGH’, it made me feel ill, but now I’ve actually started working out, I’m really quite into it. I’m at very early stages, but I’ve joined a gym and all that, and it’s made me feel really good. I worked out for an hour every consecutive day for a couple of weeks and it was enough that I really started to see the benefits, which I’d never really done before. I always thought ‘this is agony, I’m not coming back. This is torture’. But this time I just kind of pushed through. I honestly lost an inch off my waist in about 10 days. Now I really enjoy it.”
And the catwalk icon has admitted her skincare routine is “really simple” because she cannot be “bothered” to smother her face in lots of beauty products.
She explained: “My skincare routine is really simple. I couldn’t be bothered with loads of products and I’d get them all mixed up and not know what I was doing. I haven’t got the time or the inclination to sit there for ages, putting creams on my face. I need it to be effective and quick. I’ve been to bed in my make-up on occasions but I wouldn’t make a habit of it, not now. You can always tell the next day. It’s not a good look.
“Regardless of whether or not I’m working, I just do the same thing all the time. I’ll do a cleanser and a serum and a moisturiser and that’s it. That’s all I need. I’ll sometimes do those gorgeous sheet masks while watching telly. I had one on last night for today. Like a good girl, in bed, with my face mask on for work.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Cindy Crawford applies five skincare products to her body every morning and evening.
The 51-year-old supermodel boasts enviably flawless complexion, and she has revealed the secret to her glowing skin is that she applies “three to five” cosmetic items to her skin twice a day.
Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar Online, the brunette beauty said: “For my skin, it really is three-to-five products in the morning and about the same at night. I love using a retinol cream at night for cell turnover. I also love putting in a hair treatment before bed so my hair gets a chance to rejuvenate as well. I love the jasmine hair mask from Lush and the rose oil from Ouai.
“The Youth Activating Melon Serum, one of the newest in the Meaningful Beauty collection, contains melon leaf stem cells, and is my favourite way to supercharge my skincare regimen. Every day, rain or shine, I finish up with the Meaningful Beauty Environmental Protecting Moisturiser, which has SPF 30 and wears perfectly alone or under make-up. Dab on a bit of eye cream and some Crème de la Mer lip balm, and I’m ready for anything.”
And the style icon has revealed she regularly exfoliates because she is a “big fan” of dry brushing.
She continued: “I use the Meaningful Beauty Triple Exfoliating Treatment about three times a week before I shower, which is a great way to get all the dead skin off, and then I wash my face. While my skin is still a bit damp, I use a serum.
“I’m a big fan of dry brushing. My favourite brush is from Elemis, and I try to make the time to do that at least once a week before I shower. Then I use Neutrogena body oil after I shower but before I towel off.”
Cindy – who has 16-year-old daughter Kaia and 18-year-old Presley with her husband Rande Gerber – has revealed she also carries out specific exercises for her neck area, which she learned over 30 years ago.
She said: “I also do exercises for my neck. I learned them from a yoga book when I was in my 20s, and try to do them a couple of times a week. Lately I’ve discovered slip silk pillowcases for sleeping. They keep my hair from getting frizzy at night and I definitely have less wrinkle lines from my pillow when I wake up.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Paloma Faith’s wardrobe costs a total of “£20”.
The 36-year-old singer has admitted she “loves clothes” but she rarely forks out fortunes on trendy pieces because she prefers more vintage garments that come with a lower price tag.
Speaking to Stylist magazine, the ‘Can’t Rely On You’ hitmaker said: “I love clothes – we all know that. But actually most of my wardrobe costs £20 because it’s vintage.”
And the artist has revealed she “never” buys products from luxury labels because she knows she can simply “borrow” the garment she has her eyes on straight from the fashion house.
She added: “And I never really buy designer clothes because I can borrow them.”
Paloma has hinted she has never been materialistic, even as a child.
She said: “According to my mum, I was never that bothered by actual stuff. I’ve got a tape player at home that I used to record my voice on as a kid and in one tape my mum says, ‘What do you want for Christmas?’ I’m about five years old. And I say, ‘Nothing.’ I really meant it.
“I think my mum used to feed my imagination so much, I didn’t want for things.”
And Paloma – who gave birth to her first child in December last year with her French partner Leyman Lahcine – has admitted she prefers to “splash out” on memorable experiences or holidays instead.
She explained: “I tend to splash out on experiences. I tend to splash out on experiences. I could never justify spending £600 on a pair of shoes but on the other hand I’ve been to the Maldives. To me that was the height of luxury, although I did get half of it subsidised for some Twitter action.”
But the former ‘The Voice UK’ judge is not afraid to be open about how many benefits she gets because of her celebrity status.
She said: “I’m happy to say that. I think a lot of people in this industry give off the idea that they’re paying for a luxury life but it’s not always necessarily that.”

“I have two collections, one I’m revealing tomorrow and one a little later, like next month.”
The ‘Life of Kylie’ star continued to reveal the details of the upcoming project, as she revealed the first release will be a “traditional collection”, but the following capsule is a “bunch of new products” and something she has “never” done with her eponymous brand before.
She continued: “What I’m revealing is like kind of my traditional collections and then the next drop two will be a bunch of new products so I cannot wait that Kylie Cosmetic has never done before. I am actually wearing it right now.”
And the television personality is set for a busy few weeks ahead as she has collaborated with Topshop and will be bringing a Kylie Cosmetics pop up shop to seven stores across America for one month only.
In the clip she said: “My pop ups open next Monday at a bunch of Topshops round the US, New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, Houston, I might be forgetting one.
“They are all open November 20 to December 20 so go check them out. I am so excited about them.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Mary J Blige realised she was “vain” when she had to go make-up free for ‘Mudbound’.
The 46-year-old singer loves to adorn “make-up,lashes, weaves, fingernail and nice shiny stuff”, but she has admitted she could not “handle it well” when she was told to go without the cosmetic enhancements for her role as Florence in the historical period drama.
Speaking about the production to Metro newspaper, the ‘Family Affair’ hitmaker said: “I didn’t handle it well but Florence was happy.
“Mary J Blige is a business so she’s about make-up, lashes, weaves, fingernails and nice shiny stuff. I didn’t realise how vain I was until playing Florence.”
However, the artist does not mind being caught doing a food shop in her leisure wear, or in the gym au naturel.
She continued: “I don’t mind you catching me in a supermarket in a sweatsuit or in the gym with no make-up.”
Mary has admitted she soon got used to the paired down appearance for the film and eventually found it “refreshing and liberating” embracing her natural look.
She explained: “But to live like Florence and to walk around natural like her is not something I do. But then after a day, it was refreshing and liberating.”
And instead of feeling apprehensive about going bare faced the ‘Just Fine’ musician soon found her “self confidence” had been boosted.
She said: “It actually gave me a lot of self confidence.”
But Mary is not bothered by other people’s opinions of her as a person and refuses to “beat herself up” about negative comments.
Speaking previously, the ‘No More Drama’ star said: “If you believe what everybody else says you are, you’re going to grind yourself down into the ground.
“Do you believe you’re a good person? Do you believe you’re smart? Do you believe you’re going to achieve what you need to achieve? Yes! Then don’t worry about it.
“You can’t do anything about what other people say about you. You can only affect what you’re going to do…
“Don’t beat yourself up about things that you can’t do anything about.
“That comes from personal experience.
“People are always going to use the worst things against you so it’s up to you to not use those things against you.
“Try to be lighter on yourself, laugh about yourself. Don’t beat yourself up.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West says the release of her new fragrances marks a “whole new chapter” for her.
The 37-year-old television personality launches her trio of scents Crystal Gardenia, Crystal Gardenia Citrus and Crystal Gardenia Oud on Wednesday (15.11.17) after working on the beauty range for “over a year”, and she is “really excited” for the big unveil because she believes it marks a new phase in her life.
The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star – who launched her own KKW make-up line earlier this year – took to social media to give fans a closer look into her upcoming merchandise.
The entrepreneur – who has 23-month-old son Saint and four-year-old daughter North with her rapper husband – posted a string of videos on her Instagram Story, which lasts on the photo-sharing site for 24 hours, she said: “It’s finally here my fragrance Crystal Gardenia, I have been working on this for over a year. And I have had fragrances before but this one I have creative control and it’s like a whole new chapter for me.”
The reality star has revealed with every product consumers will receive a note and three miniature crystals.
She explained: “So I am really excited to show you guys the packaging.
“Inside the box comes a pouch that has about three crystals inside with a little note about what the crystals means. So, I’m really excited for you guys to smell this Gardenia, it’s amazing.”
Kim has revealed each product has one of her “favourite scents” included, whether it is tuberose, oud, or pink jasmine.
She said: “But this is the Crystal Gardenia, which the top notes are gardenia, and water lily and tuberose, and tuber rose is one of my favourite scents also.
“And then my Crystal Gardenia Citrus have top notes of gardenia but also sparkling citruses. The Crystal Gardenia Citrus is one of my favourites it has sparkling citruses like orange oil, brazil, it has Italian lemon, purple passion fruit, it has pink jasmine, which is one of my favourites, apple blossom. It is one of the most delicious, light, airy, gardenia mixed with citrus. It’s so good you guys will love it.”
And Kim has revealed Crystal Gardenia Oud is inspired by the Middle East, but she was sceptical about the perfume because she is aware not many people like the musky smell of the wood from the Southeast Asian aquilaria tree.
She explained: “Then this is the Crystal Gardenia Oud, which is really inspired by the Middle East for me, with top notes of lavender and exotic oud, and by the way people that don’t like the scent of oud have told me they love this, and it’s an exotic scent that they just really love it. So that makes me really happy because some people wear oud some people don’t, I happen to love it so I think it’s a good blend with gardenia and lavender.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Alexa Chung has collaborated with American Express to launch a handbag collection.
The 34-year-old model has teamed up with the financial services company and its Amex Small Business Saturday initiative on a new limited edition accessories range to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the global bank’s incentive to promote smaller businesses.
And the brunette beauty, who launched her eponymous label earlier this year, is honoured to have joined forces with the company because she is “aware of how hard” it is to launch your own brand.
Speaking to Vogue Online, the entrepreneur said: “Supporting small independent businesses has always been important to me because it was how I was brought up – shopping at the local Hampshire butcher or the village shop. Now that I’m an adult with a business of my own I am acutely aware of how hard it can be to get something up and running.”
Alexa’s inspiration for the capsule was to be “fun, timeless, quirky but easy and cool.”
She continued: “This is the first bag we have created as a brand and I wanted it to reflect our goals as a company: to make things that are fun, timeless, quirky but easy and cool.”
The line includes a gingham canvas bag and features Alexa’s signature logo, which is a capital ‘A’ emblazoned on the front, will retail for £35 when it becomes available on Alexachung.com/amex on Wednesday (15.11.17).
The style icon has revealed she included the print in the design because she thinks it is “classic but fresh”.
She said: “The gingham is a colourway we had applied to one of my favourite dresses in our second collection and I love it because it’s classic but fresh and the mini sizing is an interesting play with proportion.”

OHMYGOSSIP — Kim Kardashian West wanted her new fragrances to be “really timeless.”
The 37-year-old television personality is set to launch three new scents named Crystal Gardenia, Crystal Gardenia Citrus and Crystal Gardenia Oud on Wednesday (15.11.17), and the ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has admitted she designed the products to be appealing for consumers for many years to come.
Speaking to WWD about her latest venture, the style icon said: “I think that with the social media aspect of it, and being able to really reach so many people, I think it’s going to work.
“I tried to make it really timeless so that it can’t just all be about a celebrity fragrance.”
Kim has revealed the bottles were inspired by quartz crystals and citrine stone, as she wanted the packaging to be “so simple” yet still look elegant.
She said: “Obviously I’m in the celebrity category, but I just wanted a bottle that was so simple that can look like it’s something sitting on your counter and be a beautiful object.”
Kim – who has 23-month-old son Saint and four-year-old daughter North with her rapper husband Kanye West – recently launched her own KKW beauty range, but she believes it is “harder” to sell perfumes than make-up.
Speaking about her projects, Kim said: “Fragrance is harder, but make-up is difficult, too, because you don’t really test the product. I hope we’re doing a good job of describing what it will smell like, that’s always a little bit tricky.”
And Kim has high hopes for her merchandise.
She said: “I do believe from the feedback that we got that it’s going to do extremely well. We do a lot of focus group and testing without saying what the fragrance is – and people always gravitate toward it.”

The 47-year-old Serbian fashion designer – who founded her own eponymous label and set up her first store in 2014 – has admitted a colourful collection is “important” to her and is vital to her brand because it is a characteristic inspired by her upbringing in Belgrade.
Speaking in a video with British Vogue, the creative mastermind – who received the Red Carpet Designer award at the British Elle Style Awards in 2013 – said: “Colour is so important to me. I think it is such a strong part of my DNA. I feel I brought colour from back home. I grew up in a country with lots of sun and fruits, everything.”
And the mogul has admitted she has “always” wanted to work with vibrant shades to create “a new type of beauty”.
She added: “I wanted always to discover something else, something clashing, that will create a new type of beauty.”
Roksanda feels privileged her designs have been worn by celebrities including Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge.
Asked about her clientele, she said: “It was absolutely incredible. I think those moments are really reward hard work, to see so many incredible women wearing it, not just once, but over and over again and coming back to it, it’s really, really, special.”
The entrepreneur felt “so lucky” to launch her debut store three years ago with David Adjaye, and she believes her own garments share “similarities” with the store.
Roksanda – who studied architecture and design at the University of Arts in Belgrade – said: “I was so lucky to do this store with incredible David Adjaye you can see many similarities between the clothes and what the store is saying.
“I think it was a modern femininity that I was trying to convey.”
And the businesswoman has hinted the “diversity of people” in England’s capital has inspired people to develop their own style.
She said: “London is an incredible diversity of people that are coming from all over the world, they’re bringing their cultures, their different point of views, their different point of dressing. You see all the wealth of possibilities and how open minded London was. And I still think that is what is making London special.”

And during her speech the sporting ace praised Gigi as the “best” person, who “works the hardest and makes sacrifices” in order to be successful.
Speaking at the star-studded bash, which has been reported on E! News, the brunette beauty said: “Gigi, you are one of the few people on this planet I would leave my baby for – for one night – but for you, it shows how much you mean to me. And I want you to imagine the affect you have on the world.
“She understands that in order to be the best, you have to think like you are the best, work the hardest, and make sacrifices.”
The 22-year-old model – who is currently dating Zayn Malik – was also credited for “pushing boundaries” and making “new boundaries”, whilst still staying true to herself.
Serena continued: “Gigi pushes boundaries. In fact, she makes new boundaries. And she’s authentically herself.”
But the fashion muse – who recently teamed up with Maybelline to launch her own beauty range – has credited her predecessors for her success.
When she picked up the gong, Gigi said: “Our success is never just about us, it’s also about all women that paved the way so we could be here.
“It’s about the women we surround ourselves with and the characteristics we value, the inspiration and motivation women everywhere can give us to be better.”
