Model, skater, designer and TV host Erin Wasson in Vogue UK.

The Texas-born (January 20, 1982) Erin Wasson began modeling at age 16 after winning a local contest in Dallas. She has since done advertisement campaigns for Michael Kors, Rolex, Tiffany, J.Crew, Levi's, H&M, and the Gap. Wasson has walked the runway for Armani, Balenciaga, Cavalli, Gucci, Karl Lagerfeld, and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2007.

Erin Wasson began designing her own clothing line in 2008 in collaboration with Costa Mesa-based action sports (surfing and skating) brand RVCA (pronounced "ROO-kah"). With a brand like that the clothes are a modern take on stoner chic -- dark denim shorts, rolled-cuff boyfriend jeans, and jackets. Prices range from $50 for a tank top to $115 for a dress and $230 for denim cutoffs. Erin also has a designer jewelry line.



Erin Wasson describes her personal style as, "Frumpy sexiness. If I'm buying a T-shirt, I buy it oversized. I like oversized jeans, I like oversized denim shorts, I like oversized jackets. I like having an undone, loose feel to everything. You know, there's so much of a tomboy in me where I still enjoy wearing guy's clothes. More often than not I'll go to a store and I'll be in the men's section buying men's pants, or a men's vest, or a men's button-down shirt or something. It's hard for me in women's departments because the stuff is a little bit too feminine, or a little bit too frilly, or a little bit too girly."

Erin Wasson is 5'10" and has a figure of 32-24-34. "It's great that the thin model debate has come up in the press, but people have to face the fact that it's in the genes," she says in defense of her slim appearance. "I was given these genes by my Mum and Dad. Most girls on the runway do have good genes and that is something people will have to grasp – there are girls who are thin naturally."

Erin describes herself as sporty and active, and a typical Texas ranch girl. "I'm more than just a pretty face. I skate for one thing! I like all sorts of outdoor activities like skating and surfing. I'm an outdoor freak, I love the sun. I love riding horses as well, and I want to live on a ranch when I'm old."

Leighton Meester

pretty girl Leighton Meester

Leighton Meester plays a bad girl on Gossip Girl but was a good girl back in her own school.

"I mean there were drugs and stuff, but everybody I was friends with didn't do it, so I wasn't even around it. High school was me being a dork and studying," says Leighton. Gossip Girl is a TV show about rich kids in a Manhattan private school, whose primary viewership of teenagers and young women eagerly follow the plots, and the gorgeous clothes. The piped blazers, tiny kilts, dueling plaids have inspired fashion designers, and Gossip Girl charges money from brands whose clothes are featured in the series:

"I wish I had the money for style like that," says Leighton Meester whose parents were in prison when she was born. She also believes that the show, with its sexual content and drugs-and-partying lifestyle, has a negative impact on impressionable girls. "Young girls shouldn't do what we're doing on the show. Young women shouldn't follow the crowd. I've learned that this is the best way to get ahead."

Leighton Meester bare feet

Leighton Meester bares her pretty feet for a Matthew Mitchell photo shoot. Leighton signed up as a model at age 10 with Wilhelmina Models and began appearing in Ralph Lauren ads. Meester made her acting debut at age 13 on the TV show Law & Order, and has since appeared on hit series such as 24, House MD, CSI:Miami and Entourage where she played a virgin pop-star who tries to seduce Adrian Greenier.

Although Leighton Meester loves wearing classy upscale clothes, and fashion by designers Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Chlo, Nanette Lepore, BCBG, Max Azria and Valentino, she admits, "I like the clothes as opposed to the designer." Below right Leighton is with Michelle Trachtenberg at the opening of a Chanel Boutique:

5'5" Leighton Meester is actually a blonde who turned brunette for Gossip Girl. And while her actual hair is shoulder-length, Meester wears hair extensions on the show to make it appear long and curly. Below in a photo shoot for Gotham Magazine:



The 23-year old Leighton has signed with Universal Republic records to launch her music career. She did a cover of Kim Carnes' Bette Davis Eyes and has leaked a song Birthday from her upcoming album. "The music is very fun. It’s edgy, like electropop rather than bubblegum and you can dance to it," Leighton told Teen Vogue.



Leighton Meester with Nicole Fiscella at the Tao Restaurant (the pack of Marlboro cigarettes on the table probably belongs to Nicole!). While her character Blair on the show has an eating disorder, Leighton has no issues with food and enjoys eating! Her trainer, Justin Falahi, told Seventeen magazine that Leighton Meester likes to workout outdoors, using the playground for cardio and park benches for strength training exercises. Meester also does a 5 minute post-workout meditation to beat the stress. Another stress-buster is her pet terrier Jack. Meester is dating Sebastian Stan and her upcoming movie projects are The Roommate and Date Night.

Miranda Kerr dresses

Miranda Kerr beautiful

Rumors about the beautiful Miranda Kerr are abundant on the Internet, like her ethnicity....

....her wiki page claims that the Australian model "is also Persian, Serbian, Turkish, and Filipino". The source of this claim is listed in the wiki references as an Iranian newspaper, which itself credits a dubious "freewebs site" for this rumor! Even though this claim has been repeatedly denied by Miranda Kerr's agency, the myth of her varied ethnicity endures because of her unique good looks. The reality is that Miranda Kerr is Australian with an Anglo-Saxon and Scottish heritage...."Kerr" is the name of a Scottish clan.

Miranda Kerr David Jones

Miranda Kerr is an international model living in New York and known mostly for her work with the Victoria's Secret lingerie line, but she keeps coming down to Australia for modeling work and to visit her family. In the photos above Miranda Kerr dresses up in a beautiful jacket and a mustard dress (right) as the face of Australian retail giant David Jones.

Miranda Kerr Dolly contest

Schoolgirl Miranda Kerr dresses up for Dolly Magazine in 1998; she won the contest held by the teen mag and began working as a model. While growing up in her family farm at Gunnedah, Miranda used to ride motorcycles and horses. "I love being outdoors," she says. "I love listening to the crickets. I want to embrace nature."

The successful model bought her own $1 million apartment in Chelsea New York, after getting a contract with cosmetics giant Maybelline, and becoming a Victoria's Secret model. "I like Chelsea because it has a lot of art museums and it’s also central. Many of the photographic studios are around this area, so I can walk or ride my bike to work. It’s quite convenient."

Miranda Kerr Freemans

Miranda Kerr wears designer clothes that are comfortable, stylish, and free-flowing. But her personal dress sense off the catwalk is to mix and match. "I'll wear my Chloe jeans with a vintage top and necklace I bought in New York," says Miranda. "It's more interesting to combine the old with the new — kind of like it's a piece of art!"

Miranda admits to having a penchant for designer handbags and shoes, by Gucci and Miu Miu. She also does her shopping at Barneys and Bergdorf Goodman in New York, and of course David Jones in Australia. The 5'9" Miranda Kerr's fitness and diet includes Yoga, training with Justin Gelband, and eating boiled fish and vegetables. While pretty girl Miranda is outdoorsy and poses on the beach in bikinis, she has one looming fear: "Any time I go into the ocean, all I can think about is sharks."

Miranda Kerr stockings

In this photo shoot for Ocean Drive Magazine, Miranda is wearing stockings by Wolford, briefs by Victoria's Secret, and a ladder vest by Topshop; posing with her is her female teacup Yorkshire Terrier named Frankie.

Kate Bosworth

Kate Bosworth

Pretty actress Kate Bosworth and her different hairstyles and colors.



Kate Bosworth wearing a white hooded cape and gorgeous blue suede boots, from a photo shoot in Personal Magazine. Kate is one of the most stylish stars and is appropriately dressed in designer wear like Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and Marc Jacobs. "He has a feel for a woman that no other designer has, that kind of casual, vintage cool," said Kate Bosworth of Mark Jacobs. But apart from designer wear, Kate's secret for always looking good is: shopping at H&M, a Swedish retailer of cheap but stylish clothes.

Kate's natural hair color is brown but she has kept it blonde in many of her movies. One of her earliest roles was as a beach blonde surfer girl in the 2002 movie Blue Crush, with Michelle Rodriguez, Sanoe Lake, and Mika Boorem. Bosworth turned brunette for Wonderland and in her role as Lois Lane for Superman Returns.

Kate Bosworth walking her dog Lila; she adopted street dog Lila while on vacation in the country of Morocco. Kate is one of Hollywood's "green stars" increasingly into caring for the environment; she used to drive a black Audi Quattro but switched to a Toyota Prius. Bosworth was raised in an affluent family and used to ride horses from an early age. She was a champion show jumper and at age 14 was selected to act in the 1998 movie The Horse Whisperer with Scarlett Johansson and Robert Redford.

Kate Bosworth also played sports like soccer and lacrosse in high school. For the movie Blue Crush Kate did weight training to put on 15 pounds and look buff for the bikini scenes. In 2006 she suddenly lost a lot of weight due to emotional stress. Kate says she was heartbroken when boyfriend of four years, Orlando Bloom dumped her, and she increased her smoking and drinking to deal with the stress. Bosworth says she has never had issues with food and never suffered from an eating disorder, as was being speculated. The 5'5" actress is now back in shape, courtesy her old fitness habits of horse-riding, walking, and Yoga: "I’m naturally slim, but I love horse-riding, which is sort of my therapy, and that definitely keeps me looking trim."

In her new movie Laundry Warriors Kate Bosworth will be doing stunts and fighting with swords and knives.

She would have studied psychology: "Oh, my God, I love psychology! I took a psychology course, it was an elective in high school, and I literally loved it so much, just like, kind of understanding how the mind works, why people have learned behaviors and why they are the way they are." Bosworth is also into Buddhism; she is now dating British model/actor James Rousseau while ex-flame Bloom is also seeing a model, Miranda Kerr.

Chyler Leigh

Chyler Leigh flat stomach

Chyler Leigh's amazingly flat tummy has delivered two kids! And the Grey's Anatomy star is expecting her third with husband Nathan West on May 15.

Chyler, who starred in Not Another Teen Movie and did shows like 7th Heaven and Reunion before joining Grey's Anatomy in 2007, had her first child at age 21 and says, "By the time this last one will be 18, I’ll be 45."

As a young girl Chyler Leigh started out as a model who met her future husband at age 16. The two young actors were doing drugs and drinking alcohol before getting married and finding focus in their lives. Chyler told Australian Women's Health that she can't workout because she has exercise-induced asthma, and just tries to stay active looking after her two kids. The 5'6.5" tall Leigh eats mostly vegetables and fruit produced organically.

Chyler Leigh feminine

Chyler Leigh says that she used to wear "silly goofy" clothes as a girl but later became more feminine in her fashion tastes. She loves Jennifer Anniston's style: "I love that she can wear those low-cut dresses down to her stomach and also rock out in a T-shirt and jeans. She's so glamorous."

Anna Faris pretty funny

Anna Faris

Anna Faris stars with Seth Rogen in the comedy Observe and Report. "I play a really awful character, a girl who's just catty and bitchy and obnoxious," says Anna. "She's so awful I hope people are laughing at her."

Anna Faris brunette

Getting laughs is one thing pretty Anna Faris has been known for in her movie career. Faris became famous in the outrageously funny Scary Movie series, which started as parodies of horror flicks like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer. Anna Faris turned brunette for her role as Cindy Campbell, which was supposed to be a spoof on Scream's Neve Campbell.

Anna Faris returned to her natural blonde color in Scary Movie 3 as the franchise parodied any and all genres of popular movies....she is also part of Scary Movie 5 which is under production. On TV Anna Faris has guest-starred in Friends and played herself in HBO's Entourage. Anna was in the comedy The Hot Chick with Rob Schneider and Rachel MacAdams, where those two exchange bodies and Anna, playing Rachel's best friend falls in love with Schneider's character! "If I got to be in a man's body for a day, I would try out for the NFL," says Anna. "Or I would help teach other guys how to be more respectful towards women."

Anna Faris dog

Anna Faris poses with an apso dog for a photo shoot. Recently Anna got a dog of her own from fiancé Chris Pratt; a pug named Bonzo. Faris was married to actor Ben Indra for three years until Anna filed for divorce in 2007. "I'm really excited to be able to take Bonzo outside when he's a little older," says Anna, who stays fit through hiking.

Some of Anna's funny roles have required showing off her beautiful body, like Just Friends and The House Bunny, which she produced. In the latter Faris plays a Playboy bunny named Shelley, who becomes a sorority house mother to a group of geeky college girls. To get her body in a Playboy model's shape, Anna Faris worked out rigorously in the gym and lost ten pounds. "It was awful; I had to work out a lot and could only eat certain things. It was the regime of it all that I didn’t enjoy," said Faris. But even after the workouts Anna needed three hours in the make-up chair: "I had fake hair, fake chest, fake tan."

Anna Faris body

Anna Faris' beautiful body squeezed into short and tight clothes, with her legs and bottom accentuated by the many inches in those wedges. "To go from 5-feet-5 to 6-feet-1 was awesome," says Faris, always conscious of her height in high school. "It was amazing for someone short like me to suddenly be looking down at all of my peers - so I kept all the shoes." Off-camera 32-year old Anna Faris likes to hang out in jeans and T-shirts, hates going to the gym, and enjoys her food and wine.

Scarlett Johansson champagne

Scarlett Johansson Moet & Chandon

Lovely Scarlett Johansson holds an empty champagne glass in her pretty foot and asks for a drink of....

...Moet & Chandon. The 24-year-old actress was chosen to be the ambassador of the Champagne brand and posed for beautiful photos in a campaign shot by photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Frédéric Cumenal, the head of Moet & Chandon, said Ms Johansson was like Champagne herself: "She is a true icon of celebration - refreshingly spontaneous, generous, glamorous and she lives life to the fullest both on-screen and off."

Scarlett Johansson said, "I am honoured to have been chosen as their ambassador and to make history with the brand, as the first celebrity face of champagne."

Popping champagne and looking sexy wearing designer clothes is not all celebrities like Scarlett Johansson are good for. Last year she visited Rwanda in Africa wearing simple clothes and encouraged Americans to donate to AIDS relief by purchasing RED products:
