Gossip Girl Here: Blake Lively & Leonardo DiCaprio Split

Summer flings are quite nice. Unfortunately, they usually end once the fall season begins--which is exactly what happened with Blake Lively & Leonardo Dicaprio. The couple, who had been dating since May, called it quits recently according to US Weekly and PEOPLE Magazine. A source close to DiCaprio told PEOPLE that the two will still "remain friends." Yea, yea, yea, that's what they all say.

Perhaps DiCaprio, who is 36, wants to settle down....it's about time! Or maybe Ms. Lively, 24, just wants to enjoy her 20s and take advantage of all the other good looking actors coming her way?

Seems like Leo goes after the same type of girls... Bar Rafaeli, Gisel Bundchen, Blake.. In that case, if you are tall, blonde and model-like, you might have a shot. Get in line ladies!

Gisele Bündchen Commercials Considered Sexist

Since when has Gisele Bündchen even been criticized for showing too much skin? The stunning supermodel is pretty much synonymous to the word "underwear" anyways. That would be like chiding Lea Michele for singing showtunes. It's their forte, people!

However, this little brush with controversy goes a little bit differently. Miss Bündchen is currently representing HOPE, a Brazilian lingerie company, as a spokesmodel in their ads. The premise of the commercials basically show the supermodel breaking bad news to an unseen husband, while wearing regular clothing. WRONG, it beeps. Take two: she confesses her faults to hubby again, only this time - she is donning her sexy undies. RIGHT, ding ding ding! The voiceover then suggests to women that by wearing their lingerie, along with "using Brazilian charm", it would be a better way to let their men down gently.

GLAM DAMN IT Gisele Bundchen in Oscar de la Renta
Neon and Neutral


Neon clothing is a trend that comes around every season, whether it is Spring/Summer or Autumn/Winter, but wearing it is not as easy as people seem to think. Bright colors can quickly go from a fun accent in an outfit to an overly loud ensemble. While sometimes multiple flashy tones can be fun it is usually the case that less is more.

So what exactly do we mean by “accents”? The right one can be hard to find, but when done correctly it can make your wardrobe pop in a good way. One example of this is the Oscar de la Renta pre-fall 2011 dress we all remember Gisele Bundchen wearing to the 39th AFI Lifetime Achievement awards honoring Morgan Freeman. The dress was dark, neutral and form fitting with a simple luminous pink belt strapped around the waist.

Top 50 Sexiest Women in The World

Why do magazines always have to make a list of the sexiest women in the world? Aren't men able to choose which girls they find the most attractive? Do they really have to check if their choice is the good one?

Anyway, the new classification of this year's hottest girls (according to DT Spain) just came out...

Coming in at #1 is Russian model hottie Irina Shayk.

Recently divorced from Scarlett Johansson scored the #4 spot.

Heidi Klum came in at #10 while Alessandra Ambrosio and Gisele Bundchen ranked #8 and #14 respectively.

That's enough talking, you might enjoy some pictures better right?

Model Breakdown: Nashlly Sokoli

Nashlly Sokoli, a 20 year old model out of Newark has been slowly but surely pushing her way into the modeling world this past year. Joonbug was lucky enough to get an interview with Nashlly between her modeling gigs to find out a little bit about her and the work she has done. Nashlly has a drive that never let’s up. She’s persistent which will undoubtedly lead her to great success in the modeling industry.

Joonbug: When and how did you first start modeling?

Nashlly: I started modeling a little less than a year ago. I always wanted to model but I never had the time to set up shoots or get started because I was always in school, doing sports , or working. I also had the fear of being rejected since I am only 5’6’’. I don’t let that stop me now though. I think I’ve built enough confidence to go up against models who are 6 foot without heels. I think my attitude and personality is shown in my pictures and so far I am proud of my work.

Gisele's 8-week Post-Pregnancy Body

After reading "Earth Mother," an article about Gisele Bundchen in the April 2010 issue of Vogue (aka The Shape Issue), I find it hard to believe that a bit of yoga, having family members as part of your serving staff, and being married to a young and attractive football player will bounce your body back into what could quite possibly be better shape than pre-pregnancy.

Nonetheless, 8 weeks after childbirth, Bundchen was joined by David Sims in Boston to shoot ads for Colcci. Gisele described her 4-month break from modeling as "feeling lost" during her first take on set - but instantly warming up on the second.

Poor Styling For Gisele's Vogue Cover?

Not too many people are fond of the April 2010 Vogue cover. Let's just say what's on everyone's mind, the styling sucks.

Gisele Bundchen is in her breeziest 'hey girl' pose ever, and let's face it, could she possibly fit more bracelets on those little wrists?

Not as thick - nor overloaded with advertisements - as the March edition, Vogue is prepared to whip readers into shape for spring in its annual Shape issue.

Jourdan Dunn Gives Birth

Tis' the season for models to have babies. Yesterday we found out that supermodel Gisele Bündchen gave birth to a baby boy with husband and football player Tom Brady. And today we learned that 19-year-old model Jourdan Dunn gave birth to a boy on Tuesday afternoon; so her son and Gisele's son were either born on the same day, or just hours apart. Dunn has been with her boyfriend for five years. The daring model even walked the runway seven months pregnant for Jean Paul Gaultier's show. Her agency hasn't said whether she'll walk the shows again in February (I hope), but a rep says, "Jourdan is really well and super happy."

Today in Fashion History: December 3rd

On December 3rd 2001, it was revealed that although supermodel Gisele Bundchen might seem to have the perfect body, mega corporation Victoria's Secret felt that improvements could be made. At the label's runway show, the supermodel was asked to wear rubber "chicken fillet" breast padding in order to appear one cup size larger. So ladies, remember there is no such thing as perfect and that everyone is flawed... even supermodels.
