Former Plus-Size Model Stella Ellis Tells All

Former Plus-Size Model Stella Ellis Tells All Stella Ellis was a make-up artist in Paris for fashion designer Thierry Mugler when her bodacious bod caught the eye of fellow designer Jean Paul Gaultier. Ellis became Gaultier's voluptuous new muse and soon began to strut her curves on the catwalk alongside wafer-thin supermodels of the '90s like Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Linda Evangelista. Next came a photo shoot with Steven Meisel for Italian Vogue, some provocative poses for Madonna's S&M themed photo project, "Sex," and a fierce catwalk for Mugler's directorial turn in George Michael's 'Too Funky" music video.

Charles Barkley Calls Women Of San Antonio Fat!

Charles Barkley Calls Women Of San Antonio Fat! Charles Barkley's comments during TNT's commercial break causes quite the debate on PerezHilton.com. Regardless if it is true or not, it's a generalization and one that is uncalled for. As the old saying goes, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."

Queen is 'Just Wright'

As many of you know, I love the Queen, Queen Latifah that is!  Her new movie, 'Just Wright' comes out May 14th. 

Queen Latifah plays Leslie Wright, a physical therapist who gets a job working with an NBA all-star Scott McKnight, played by Common. Oblivious to McKnight, Wright falls in love with him. Instead, McKnight is drawn to Wright's childhood friend Morgan, played by Paula Patton, who wants to become an NBA trophy wife.

"Just Wright" is the 30th film for Queen Latifah and 10th for Common. As musical artists, Common has released nine albums, his first in 1992, while Queen Latifah has seven albums to her name, her first in 1989 (www.espn.go.com).
