Victoria Caroline Beckham (born Victoria Caroline Adams on 17 April 1974) is an English popular music singer, who first came to prominence as a member of girl band the Spice Girls, as Posh Spice, a nickname given to her by the BBC's Top of the Pops magazine. She is married to soccer icon David Beckham.

Victoria Beckham was born and brought up in affluent Goffs Oak, Hertfordshire to Anthony William (Tony) Adams, an electronics engineer, and Jacqueline Doreen (Jackie) Cannon. She has a younger sister Louise and a younger brother Christian. Her father used to drive her to school in a Rolls-Royce and their house boasted a pool. Prior to joining the Spice Girls, Victoria had a number of odd modeling and dancing jobs (she is a trained dancer). Right before joining the Spice Girls she had joined a band where she would be the lead singer; however she left them after falling in love with the Spice Girl project. Even though she sang off key in the audition (she said the song was in the wrong key for her but 'she can really sing') she was chosen anyway.

Victoria Adams married the ex-Manchester United and present England and Real Madrid footballer David Beckham, on July 4, 1999, with whom she has three sons: Brooklyn, born March 4, 1999, Romeo, born September 1, 2002, and Cruz, born February 20, 2005.

Following the birth of her first child, Victoria's weight loss became a topic of much discussion in the British tabloid press. She agreed to appear in adverts for a potato crisp brand but there were claims that she would not actually eat the crisps. She has claimed to this day that she never had an eating disorder though she says former band member Geri Halliwell did get her dangerously addicted to dieting. She likes to say her dramatic weight loss was due to polycystic cyst ovaries condition but her plummeting weight over the years makes this hard for most people to believe (especially compared to pre Spice photos and videos.)

Despite being one of the most famous celebrities in Britain, and having all her music reach the top ten (the only solo Spice to do so), Victoria Beckham's career as a solo artist is largely considered to have been a commercial failure. The only Spice Girl not to have had a UK number one single as a solo artist (despite "Out Of Your Mind" was the solo-Spice single with biggest sales in its first week, selling 180,584 copies), she fought unsuccessful media-driven "chart battles" for the number 1 position with Spiller in 2000 (whose single featured the vocals of Beckham's contemporary and rival Sophie Ellis-Bextor, who caused Beckham to be the only solo spice girl to not have a #1 single) and Kylie Minogue in 2001. Her debut album reached number 10 in the UK album chart.

A first single called "Let Your Head Go/ This Groove" (a double A-side) was released in late December 2003 where it hit number 3. This single was a compromise with her manager Simon Fuller, one side being a pop/dance song and the other side a song displaying strong R&B influences which was inspired by her new mentor Damon Dash. A release for America was planned for March 2004; as well as a second single but a series of unfortante events seen to it neither happened. Apparently Damon Dash (by his own admittance) had a falling out with Simon Fuller over how to manage and produce Victoria's career and music. With him off the project Victoria apparently decided to shelve the idea rather then trudge ahead. She decided to work on a range of original fashions for Rock and Republic instead.

A promo CD was sent to the media which featured the singles and a snippet of a cover of the Beatles 'Come Together' though the full song has never leaked.

In 2004, her happy marriage image suffered when a string of women lined up to the tabloids claiming to having had affairs with David, including Rebecca Loos. All were dismissed as "ludicrous", "absurd" and "unsubstantiated" by David Beckham and the Beckhams showed a publicly united front against the allegations. However, Loos maintained that she had not fabricated the allegations, and since the Beckhams took no legal action to disprove them, they have continued to mar the image of the Beckhams as the UK's "golden couple". The British press and public, however, eventually lost interest in the story, and the Beckhams have appeared to continue life as normal.

In 2003, Victoria denied rumors of breast enhancement on British TV insisting, "I'm completely natural, except for my fingernails and I have a bit of help with my hair and a bit of San Tropez going on." A year later she told British chat show host Michael Parkinson, "I haven't had a boob job." This was widely believed to be proven as a lie in 2005 when a court document relating to a libel case she and her husband filed revealed she did have her breasts enhanced. The file, obtained by Britain's The People newspaper, says "That the Second Claimant (Victoria Beckham) had in fact undergone breast enhancement surgery and had lied about it on the 'Tabloid Tales' television program." However most people have failed to realize that is no fact; just what the tabloid is claiming is true. So far there is no proof she has had breast enhancement.

Beckham has had a well-publicized feud with supermodel Naomi Campbell, which began when she publicly branded Campbell as "a massive cow" and a "bitch" in 2000. Campbell later remarked that she could not understand how the former Spice Girl ever got the nickname "Posh". However, any bad blood (tabloid-induced or otherwise) between them seems to have subsided in the past few years, the girls have even appeared to be friends. In fact Naomi was the one who introduced Victoria to Damon Dash.

In 2004 Victoria came out with a mainly jeans fashion line for Rock and Republic called 'VB Rocks'. The jeans were high end (retailing for roughly $300 msrp in the U.S.) and supposed to 'lift your bum' in the design. The line was so successful Victoria has made further lines including a range of Children's and men's wear for the Spring/Fall of 2006. She also has worked on a range of women's clothes including shirts and skirts. The distinctive feature on the clothing is Victoria's logo a crown with the letters VB.

There was also a period in 2005 when it was reported that Victoria Beckham might be sued by HM Queen Elizabeth II for use of what appeared to be The Queens crown as Victoria Beckham's clothes line symbol.

Beckham also revels in her passion for Gucci and Prada and her fondness for high-heels. She is rarely seen smiling in public, for she reportedly hates the way she looks when she smiles. Many people take this to mean she is unhappy though most fans believe its just 'her image'.

In 2006 Victoria had another career milestone when she walked the catwalk for dear friend and fashion designer Roberto Cavalli. Rumour had it she was planning to try to start a career as a model though Victoria herself has said this is absurd.

Further plans for 2006 include a line of sunglasses, a perfume (one for her and a cologne for David), and furthering her fashion range.

On February 26, 2006, Beckham made an official statement regarding the future of her music career in an interview with the Sunday Mirror:

"I'm never going to sing again, unless it was a chance to do something with The Spice Girls. I don't really miss the shows we did together. I miss the girls more. I see Geri a lot - I love her, she's amazing. I speak to the others from time to time. I love them too and miss them."

Vida Guerra wallpaper and biography

2007-11-22T14:37:00.001-08:00

Name: Vida Guerra
Birth Place: Havana, Cuba
Born: January 8th, 1980
Background: American
Res: New Jersey
Meas: 34-25-38

Vida Guerra Biography Full name Vida Guerra was born January 08, 1980, in Havana, Cuba, Vida moved to USA when she was 6 years old. She is a swimsuit model and video celebrity with many future modeling, TV & video forthcoming interests. Vida is very intelligent and can fluently speaks Spanish and English and also admitted going to the gym four times a week... what a girl has to do to look gorgeous...

Vida's modeling opportunities when they came, were through the FHM magazine, Vida's friend suggested she send in pictures of herself. With nothing to lose, Guerra did just that. Upon receiving Vida's photos, FHM felt they fit in perfectly with a recent search for everyday babes in lingerie. The pictures were posted in the magazine and though they were very hot, Guerra thought nothing more of it. That is, of course, until readers bombarded FHM with letters demanding more of the hot USA babe with the huge booty.
Overwhelmed with the response, the magazine called Vida back and asked her to officially pose for them. Jumping at the opportunity, Guerra agreed and was featured very scantily clad. From then onwards, people began to notice Vida Guerra. Her big sexy booty also made Guerra a perfect fit in P. Diddy, Nelly and Murphy Lee's "Shake Ya Tailfeather" video and "Get no Better" by Rap Hip-Hop singer Cassidy.

Shake Ya Tailfeather (2003)

Cassidy single - "Get No Better"

Now a recognized model, Guerra grabbed more headlines after appearing FHM photo shoot and has since become one of the planet's most-lusted after women. Early last year she cracked the top 10 among the Internet's most searched for female celebrities, yet Vida's dream is to become an actress and make the move into Hollywood movies.
Vida Guerra set to sing and dance and act as well!! Our Vida's followed the tried and tested path to fame and glory, the one that starts from the butt and progresses to the mouth. Now don't get this wrong.. All I am saying is that she is moving effortlessly from posing semi-nude in men's magazines which got her noticed and an avowed fan following to singing (that's the mouth connection. ya see). Vida's fans are eagerly awaiting proof of her singing prowess though I suppose they will readily forgive any lack of musical talent. In a buildup to the musical video, Vida will be releasing a DVD titled Exposed which is set for a December release. The DVD will take a deep look inside the person and explore previously unknown facets of her personality. Vida's preparation for her singing career includes co-starring in videos for rappers like Frankie J and Cassidy. Apart from singing, Vida is on the lookout for scripts that do justice to her as yet untapped acting talent; though she does have National Lampoon's Dorm Daze to her credit.
Presently Vida is to be seen on many TV stations & Vida continues to model and pursue an acting career, which is blossoming, and we wish Vida great success with future work and hope to see her very soon in more entertainment magazines video and TV celebrity entertainment rolls.

From the age of three she was involved in ballet, tap and jazz dance, her parents making a commitment to go as far as Stacy's talents would take her. The taste for the spotlight while dancing soon spurred an interest in modeling and acting. With her good looks, it was not hard to land modeling gigs in conservative and not-so-conservative publications as she reached adulthood. So she worked as a model and actress as well as a physical therapist technician and a Baltimore Ravens cheerleader before entering the world of wrestling. Danceing since the age of 3 with a background in ballet,tap and jazz it was easy to see why Stacy became a cheerleader. Stacy was one of the first Baltimore Ravens cheerleaders, working with the organization for 2 years. Plus Stacy was also a full time student, pulling in near-perfect grades in Mass Communications at Towson University.

Stacy got her start in wrestling with WCW after winning the Nitro Girl Search in late 1999. Upon entering the WCW she had an identity crisis for a while.

But in a shocking move Stacy showed up on June 14,2001 on Smackdown on the arm of none other than the new owner of WCW Shane McMahon. Since that time Stacy has gone from teaming up with Torrie Wilson in tag team action to becomeing The Dudley Boyz valet. Stacy's union with The Dudley Boyz as "The Duchess of Dudleyville" has since ended when Stacy was the victim of a brutal attack by Bubba Ray Dudley on RAW. After their match Bubba Ray Dudley put Stacy threw a table stateing that Stacy had couse them to lose the match. Since leaving the Dudley, Stacy has now been handed the job of assistant to one Mr.Vince McMahon. Since Mr Mcmahon left Smackdown and few weeks ago and named Stephaine McMahon the new gm. Stacy once again was handed the job of assistant to a McMahon this time that McMahon beening Stephaine. After turning on Stephanie and helping out Eric Bischoff, Stacy made her debut on Raw on 8/12. Stacy has even kept her relationships in house: having alleged flings with Ric "Nature Boy" Flair and currently with Andrew Martin, a.k.a. "Test." Whatever she does, we hope she maximizes her exposure so that men worldwide can fully appreciate the extent of Stacy's talents.

Shakira wallpaper and biography

2007-11-22T14:35:00.001-08:00

Name :	Shakira

Birth date :	February 2, 1977

Birth Place :	Barranquilla, Colombia

Birth Name :	Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll

Height :	5'2

Nationality :	Colombian

Occupation :	Musician

Known For :	Album : 'Pies Descalzos'

Became the youngest ever goodwill ambassador for the United Nations UNICEF on October 24, 2003

Postponed a concert in the Dominican Republic at the advice of her doctors because she was suffering from a throat infection -- The concert was scheduled for Wednesday night at Quisqueya Stadium in Santo Domingo, but it was postponed until Thursday night, promoter George Nader said. (March 21, 2003)

Donated 10,000 pairs of tennis shoes to her hometown of Barranquilla to impoverished children -- the donation was made through the Barefoot Foundation, named after one of Shakira's disks called Pies Descalzos in Spanish. (December 21, 2002)

Shakira proves to be a real doll the singer has signed on with toy company Mattel, maker of Barbie, to license a collection of fashion dolls and accessories. (November 6, 2002)

Shakira has signed an endorsement deal with Reebok that will be marketed under the sportswear giant's Sounds & Rhythm Of Sport platform. (September 24, 2002)

Shakira is a walking, living, breathing, singing contradiction.

She's a child prodigy who wrote her first song at age eight, a blond-locked Colombian who speaks three languages and loves only in Spanish.

She's a perfectionist who spends hours in the studio; she needs to be close to nature but her passion is the crackle of electric guitars.

Made emergency helicopter landing. Bad weather forces the singer's chopper down over a baseball diamond in the Dominican Republic on Friday, August 2, 2002. She and family escaped injury.

The Latin-pop superstar, born Shakira Mebarak Ripoll in the coastal city of Barranquilla, Colombia, Shakira, who goes by her first name only in Arabic means "woman full of grace," belies her ancestry. She is the daughter of a Colombian mother and a Lebanese father-a jeweler and writer whose Arabic background greatly influenced his daughter. Shakira's fondness for music was apparent early on, and she started winning local and national talent contests at age 10. While in school, Shakira was making her musical talent known by winning talent shows playing the guitar, and she was even kicked out of her school choir because her voice drowned out the other choir singers. Elsewhere, Shakira impressed judges at local and national competitions, who declared her winner of these contests. By 13, she had signed a record deal with Sony in Colombia, which resulted in her first album, "Magia (Magic)," a compilation of songs she wrote between the ages of 8 and 13. It was an effort that put Shakira in Colombia's musical map, and led to her being chosen to represent her country at the Fesival OTI in Spain. Because she was under the minimum age of 16, she wasn't allowed to participate. So instead, Shakira recorded a second album of original material, "Peligro (Danger)." At that point, Shakira took a break from music, graduated from high school (at age 15-really) and came back with a vengeance. The result was the phenomenally successful "Pies Descalzos," a hit-laden smash, which has sold close to four million copies worldwide. Shakira became an international sensation touring for an almost solid two years, playing her songs to sold-out audiences throughout the world. In Brazil alone, "Pies Descalzos" sold in excess of 900,000 copies, leading Shakira to record remixes in Portuguese for her Brazilian fans. She abandoned the light pop format she had been doing and declined her label's suggestion to explore more commercial avenues. Instead, she insisted on recording her very own brand of music: a blend of pop and rock that was unprecedented for a Colombian musician, much less a woman. Such a smashing hit seems impossible to surpass. But Shakira has done it with "Donde Estan los Ladrones," a collection of potential hits that further explores the realms of rock 'n' roll without losing Shakira's authenticity. Produced by über-producer Emilio Estefan -- who also became her manager -- the album is the perfect blend of gritty, thought-provoking lyrics and rock-laden tracks, while still preserving the Shakira that her original fans knew and loved. No wonder, then, that it was Shakira who was chosen among dozens of female Latin singers to grace the cover of Time Magazine in a recent article titled "Era of the Rockera". For the most exciting singer/songwriter to come out of Latin America in years, the possibilities are endless. For the millions that already buy her albums, she is already the voice of a new generation.

Rihanna wallpaper and biography

2007-11-22T14:33:00.000-08:00

If nothing else, it has been an eventful and eye opening year for Barbados born songstress Rihanna. In addition to recording one of the most popular singles of 2005, the hypnotic "Pon De Replay" (which bass bumped out of more car windows while igniting a slew of barbeques last summer), she won over the masses with her charming Bajan persona.

"So much has happened in my life, I feel like I've grown five years in a year," she gushes. No doubt, by the time Def Jam Records released Rihanna's debut album Music of the Sun, it was obvious that this young woman was more than a one-hit wonder. With a work ethic reminiscent of Motown sisters back in the day when soul reigned supreme, Rihanna traveled throughout the world.

2005 saw Rihanna rocking the mic on tour with Gwen Stefani, making crowds sweat in Japan, posing for magazine covers in Los Angeles and shooting her first film role for Bring It On Yet Again. This was a long way from the quiet life she led in Barbados in the parish of St.Michael. Robyn Rihanna Fenty has come through her musical initiation process unscathed. And now she is poised for everything that 2006 may hold as she readies to do it again with her sophomore release A Girl Like Me.

"I grew up so much this past year. I had no choice. To pursue my dreams, and with their support, I left my entire family in Barbados to move to the States. It was a little scary to have no friends or family and all of a sudden step into a recording studio," recalled Rihanna.

"2005 taught me the dedication and responsibility it takes to make this dream a reality. Waking up at 5:00 am to start rehearsals, the training, the schoolwork, interviews, video shoots, going all day; it always seemed glamorous but it is real work. My love for music and singing will never change but the rose colored glasses are no longer so rosy."

"Many times over the past year, I didn't have anyone my age with me. When recording this album, I wanted it to seem like I was having a personal conversation with girls my age," says the eighteen-year-old singer. "People think, because we're young, we aren't complex, but that's not true. We deal with life and love and broken hearts in the same way a woman a few years older might. My goal on A Girl Like Me was to find songs that express the many things young women want to say, but might not know how."

Dropping from the harmonic heavens to the groovalistic dance floor, Rihanna has returned with another single that will have listeners begging the d.j. to play it one more time. Produced by Jason Rotem, the sizzling "S.O.S." is bringing the summer heat early this year. With its hypnotic beat and enticing melody, "S.O.S." utilizes the electro-funk of Soft Cell's '80s classic "Tainted Love" to create a soulful anthem of young love.

"I got excited when I first heard this track and three days later, it was recorded," Rihanna says. Turning heads with its rebel sound, "S.O.S." has been used as the theme song for their NIKE latest women's line, which can be viewed on NikeWomen.com. "Making that commercial was yet another new experience," she says. "It took six days to shoot, but working with choreographer Jamie King (Madonna and Shakira) was amazing."

Focusing on progressing as an artist, Rihanna has recorded a compelling track of heartbreak called "Unfaithful." Penned by her label-mate Ne-Yo and Stargate, the song documents the tragic decay of a relationship when another person starts cheating.

Yet, in this instance, it is the girl who has strayed. "On a lot of records, men talk about cheating as though it's all a game. For me, 'Unfaithful' is not just about stepping out on your man, but the pain that it causes both parties."

Perhaps the most surprising track is the rock meets island vibe of "Kisses Don't Lie." Evan Rogers and Carl Sturken, the principles of her production company, SRP, used a mixture of Caribbean elements, electric guitar and a mesmerizing bassline." Coming from Barbados, I really hadn't heard that much rock music," Rihanna confesses. "Touring with Gwen changed my perspective. So, when I was discussing this project with L.A. Reid, Chairman of Island Def Jam Records, I made sure to say I want to experiment with some rock."

During the recording of A Girl Like Me, Rihanna jet set down to Jamaica to record with Sean Paul on the yardie duet "Break It Off." Smiling, Rihanna explains, "I have so much respect and love for Sean Paul. He took me to visit the Bob Marley Museum before going into the studio, which was an amazing experience. When we finally got to the studio, I felt as though Marley's spirit was in the room with us."

With A Girl Like Me, the beautiful singer proves that her breakthrough was no fluke. After selling 1 million copies worldwide of her debut Music Of The Sun, once again, the summer belongs to Rihanna.

Natasha Thomas wallpaper and biography

2007-11-22T14:31:00.001-08:00

With so many young people clamouring for major label redord deals, standing in line for hours at casting shows and doing just about anything to get noticed, Danish pop singer Natasha Thomas, just 18 years old has done what most teenagers would consider to be the unthinkable. She asked to be released from her worldwide recording contract with Sony Music and has started her own record company along with her management. This is a move most people in thier 30's would not have the guts to do, but for Natasha, "It just feels like the right things" She says without hesitation. Natasha has recently begun work on her second album, picking out producers, coreographers, writing her own songs, singing live and also picking the right partners around the world to promote and distribute her future records.

What does Natasha have to say about her experiences of the past 2 years? "I am gratefull for the experience and for my fans and i am looking forward to working hard to bring the fans something that is truly me. The record company had a plan for the last record, they had the concept already in place for the music and image. Nobody counted on me having a brain or an opinion, much less creative ideas. I know everyone needs a bit of coaching, but this was different. That may be fine for a lot of people that may just want to be famous, but it was never fine with me. I know everyone was just doing their jobs and that I am lucky to find out really young that is not for me. I want to have a say in the music that I do and I want to be honest. I feel like I owe myself and the fans that much."

Natasha adds, "While I am open for guidance, suggestions and know that I have a lot to learn, I want the final say on what has my name on it in the future. Creating my own company and finding people who really beleive in me was the only way I could imagine to insure that happening. I have so many ideas for videos, staging, lyrics production. I felt if I stayed where I was they would always see me a young girl who could not possibley have anything to offer other than looking good. I paid for half of my super expensive videos and had absolutely no creative say, not even in what I was wearing. While the videos were good, they were not what I would have chosen for myself. If I am paying €100.000 for a video from my record sales, I better love it! With all that said, I know it was a great start and for that I am grateful."

Speaking of her start, what a start it was! With her single "Save Your Kisses for Me", released at the beginning of June 2004, the then 17-year-old Dame Natasha Thomas scored a hit hat-trick with her first three releases. In the summer of 2003 the young singer's debut single "Why (Does Your Love Hurt So Much)" went straight into the top 40 of the German single charts (and airplay top 4), while her second single "It's Over Now" just missed breaking into the top ten, peaking at number twelve(!). The mid-tempo love song, which features the Tobagon reggae artist Sugar Daddy (who has already worked with Buju Banton, Sizzia and Capleton), also made it into the top twenty of the airplay charts.

And those who waited to see more of Natasha Thomas were in for a treat. Natasha was selected to represent one of the world's best-known and most important fashion label, Lacoste. As the new worldwide "Lacoste face" Natasha was seen from May 2004 onwards in a pan-European print and TV campaign alongside the French tennis ace Arnauld Clement (currently number 26 in the world rankings). The advert was directed by Bruno Aveillan (Nissan, Perrier, Nintendo and others), who in the course of his career has already filmed top stars such as Claudia Schiffer. Natasha was also seen worldwide in the "Touch of Pink" Lacoste perfume print and TV ads. "Touch of Pink" went on to win 2 prestigious FiFi Awards in Berlin in April 2005, including the public's choice award.

But let's go back to the beginning for a moment...

The very first public performance by Natasha, who halls from Copenhagen, took place over six years ago: "I was twelve years old," she reminisces, "and I sang 'Killing Me Softly'. I was very nervous because in the audience were a few kids from my class who were always making it hard for me at school. And I thought to myself: 'I'm not going to let them get me down; I'm going to show them'."

Six years later Natasha really did show: Her debut single "Why (Does Your Love Hurt So Much)" (originally performed by Carly Simon) was released to great reception in Europe. "Ever since I was a child I knew that I wanted to be a singer," She says. And she worked hard at realizing her dream. Her professional attitude, diligence and iron discipline meant that the young Dane did not always have an easy time of things: "I had to change schools once because a couple of kids had got it in for me. They wanted to make life hard for me because I was different." But Natasha wasn't to be discouraged: She looked for a new school and focused on her favourite subjects, music and theatre. Natasha took dancing and singing lessons, ans started writing her own lyrics and songs. "Writing is a form of therapy for me. It helps me to cope with my experiences in life." When she recorded her debut single "Why (Does Your Love Hurt So Much)" at the beginning of 2003 the then 16-year-old Natasha travelied to Germany for the first time ever.

Although Natasha is currently focused on her own music career, there are of course pop stars that she admires: "I love Christina Aguilera. She has a great coice and her album 'Stripped' is amazing. I also like Jennifer Lopez; she seems so confident and appears to have fun doing what she does. And I admire them both as performers."

Natasha's pop career has left her with very little time for other hobbies: "At school I liked theatre - this is something I would like to maybe do in a few years. Unfortually, I rarely get the change to do some reading; but when I have time I like to read the works of Michael Strunge, a Danish poet. I also love to watch television; best of all "Freinds", it puts me in a good mood. When it comes to the cinema I like Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock - and Sean Penn, he's incredibly talented and intense. My favourite films are "The Sith Sense" with Bruce Willis, I like the twist at the end. And "What Women Want" with Mel Gibson, because guys finally get to find out just how insensitive they can be at times."

For the future Natasha wants to be successful with music that she feels passionate about - and have a happy life for herself and her family. "My mother brought me up on her own and she always believed in me - I admire her for this and I am extremely grateful."

Monica Bellucci was born on September 30th, 1968, in the village of Citta di Castello, in Umbria, Italy. Initially pursuing a career as a lawyer, Monica decided to start modeling in order to help pay for her tuition while at the University of Perugia. But of course, the glamorous life of a model -- which includes travel and a sweet income -- tempted Monica away from her law studies. In 1988, Monica moved to one of Europe's fashion centers -- Milan. There, she signed with Elite Model Management and found plenty of modeling work. By 1989, Monica was making it big in Paris and across the Atlantic, in New York. But although she had achieved huge success in so little time as a model (posing for Dolce & Gabbana and French Elle), Monica thrived for more.

Monica's classic and elegant good looks are matched only by an equally sophisticated and refined fashion sense. She made her film debut in 1990, with roles in Vita coi figli and Briganti (a.k.a Bandits: Love and Liberty). The following year, Monica starred as Francesca in the film La Riffa, and made her American film debut with the role of Dracula's Bride in 1992's Bram Stoker's Dracula, co-starring Gary Oldman and Winona Ryder. Roles began to pour in for the Italian beauty. After a role in Ostinato destino, she appeared in I Mitici (a.k.a. The Heroes) in 1994, and Palla di neve in 1995. She also starred as the Pharaoh's wife in the made-for-TV movie, Joseph. But it was her role in the 1996 film, L'Appartement, that earned Monica her acting accolades. In 1997, Bellucci was cast in Come mi vuoi (a.k.a As You Want Me), Dobermann and Mauvais genre. After roles in more European films such as 1998's L'Ultimo capodanno, A los que aman, and Compromis, she starred in 1999's Comme un poisson hors de l'eau (a.k.a. Like a Fish Out of Water). But it was the critical success of the Italian film Malena (2000), in which Monica starred in the title role, that really catapulted her to fame. In 2001, Bellucci starred in Brotherhood of the Wolf (co-starring her husband Cassel) and as Cleopatra in Asterix & Obelix: Mission Cleopatre. The following year she starred in Tears of the Sun, with Bruce Willis, and of course, as Persephone in the highly anticipated sequels to 1999's The Matrix. In 2004, Monica Bellucci was seen as Magdalene in Mel Gibson's controversial blockbuster, The Passion of the Christ, and returned to French film with Agents secrets. She can also add 2004's The Brothers Grimm (with Matt Damon and Heath Ledger), Spike Lee's She Hate Me, and 2005's Lord of War (with Nicolas Cage) to her filmography.

With over 20 movies to her credit she isn't a novice to film, unfortunately her fame comes from Italian cinema. Monica has not benefited from the Hollywood marketing machine that movie studios are capable of. Although the model-turned-actress has reached incredible heights in both streams of her career, she still dreams of working with the legendary Robert De Niro. Critics are quick to compare Monica Bellucci to previous Italian beauties, but she has her own brand of sensual style. With roles as a topless vampire in "Dracula", and her recent role as a sci-fi vixen in the Matrix sequels, Monica has proven to be a bold blend of a seductive actress and a talented star.

Milla Natasha Jovovich was born on December 17, 1975 in Kiev, Ukraine. She is the only child of Gallina Loginova, an actress, and Bogdanovitch (Bogie) Jovovich, a physician. Much of her first five years was spent travelling back and forth between her father's medical studies in London and their home in Russia.

After those five years, Milla's father decided that his medical practice could not grow any more in the Russian economy. At age 5, Milla moved with her family to Sacramento, California. Unfortunately, during Milla's childhood in the United States, she was antagonized by children who would never let her forget that she was a "commie" in the heat of the Cold War.

At age 11, Milla rose above this relentless torment to begin her acting career. Her first movie, released in 1988, was Two Moon Junction. From that point on, Milla was flying high. Upon her entry in the realm of modeling, the world was amazed by how beautiful and 11-year-old fashion model could be. Milla's acting and modeling careers continued through her adolescence.

At age 18, Milla released her first album, The Divine Comedy. Many critics anticipated a cheesy pop album that they had come to expect from a model/actress turned singer/songwriter. To the surprise and pleasure of music-lovers everywhere, Milla's first album was a beautiful collection of eclectic music that utilized instruments from around the world.

In 1997, Milla starred with Bruce Willis in Luc Besson's The Fifth Element. Her performance as Leeloo forced the world to recognize her as the incredible actress that she is. During the filming, there were stories of a love affair between Milla and Luc.

Milla and Luc were married in December, 1997. Milla's last starring role came in Spike Lee's He Got Game with Denzel Washington.

Maria Menounos wallpaper and biography

2007-11-22T14:26:00.001-08:00

Making her grand entrance on June 8th, 1978 in Medford, Massachusetts, Big was a shining star at birth. By the time she was a student (and a good one at that), her sights were set on a career in journalism. Some days, she would even arrive late to school after watching the morning news on CNN for too long.

In 1995, thanks to the encouragement of her friends and family, Menounos began to enroll in beauty pageants. The following year, she won the title of Miss Massachusetts Teen USA. Though she did not win the Miss Teen USA crown, her involvement in such a big production helped her gain a lot of experience, not to mention pave the way for her career. In fact, she boldly told pageant host and Entertainment Tonight reporter Bob Goen that she would love to work with him at ET. Her six years of foresight seem quite prophetic today.

Her string of success on the pageant circuit ended in 1999, when Menounos finished a very respectable second place to Miss Massachusetts USA. By this time, she was on to bigger and better things as a student at Boston's Emerson College. During her senior year, she was hired as a reporter for Channel One News, known as the top news source for American students. Her work for Channel One's 10-minute segments included traveling to El Salvador to report on the devastating earthquake of 2001 and interviewing President George W. Bush.

She also lent her broadcasting skills to two radio stations; she produced, hosted and wrote news segments for both a local and a college channel. Menounos even made an independent film in 1999 called George's Auto, proving that she is truly an all-around talent.

These achievements translated into a wave of high-profile TV offers. The best and most lucrative by far came from the most popular news show in syndication, Entertainment Tonight. The famed celebrity news show convinced Menounos to join its team as a correspondent in 2002. She excelled immediately, interviewing everyone from the Osbournes to Robin Williams, and reporting on movies, music and fashion.

Menounos did so well that ET executives offered her a hosting gig for ET on MTV & VH1, a crossover program that brings the latest celeb news to the two popular networks. She remains a correspondent on ET but, to many, her most important contributions involve charities. Menounos formed Take Action Hollywood!, a foundation that raises social awareness and enlists the help of the entertainment industry.

Of late, Menounos has created her own news by appearing in FHM magazine and being the subject of a rumored romance with Hollywood star Vin Diesel?
