Elle dropped its April issue yesterday and who graced it’s infamous cover? The classy and gorgeous Oscar-wining actress, Reese Witherspoon, who reveals to the magazine what we all have been waiting to hear. Reese speaks out about getting past her divorce from Ryan Phillippe, her relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal and her strict diet of cookies and read wine. YUM! Elle.com
One of the most emailed stories this week on The New York Times involves a lot of women’s favorite ingredient for detox diet, the açaí berry. Everywhere we turn we see they hype over the açaí. Just browse through your e-mail messages or advertisements on Facebook and you’ll get the gist of the claims: “Lose weight with Oprah’s favorite diet secret!” “Eat the berry that Dr. Oz calls the ‘No. 1’ superfood!” But a Texas A&M food chemistry professor and other sources claim this appeal is merely “Skin Deep.” NYTimes.com
Twilight hottie, Robert Pattinson is on the cover of the April issue of GQ Magazine that debuts next week. The 22-year-old is featured in the ‘What’s Hot in 2009′ section of the mag. When asked how he landed his role as sexy vampire Edward he said: “I took half a Valium and then went into this thing — and all this stuff happened.” It was the first time I’ve ever taken Valium. A quarter. A quarter of a Valium. I tried to do it for another audition, and it just completely backfired — I was passing out.” This sexy photo shoot will turn any woman (or man’s) head but alas, this single man is not looking for a special woman right now. Take a look for yourself GQ.com.
