Jennifer Aniston: Botox-Scared?

Former Friends star Jennifer Aniston is simply not made out major beauty surgeries. As far from what she had seen from other women, Jennifer reveals that Botox makes women look "harder" making them unable to express emotions. Admittedly, the 40 year old actress have had skin-smoothing injections before. However, she wasn't at all satisfied with the results: "You see women and you know they're not young but you can't tell how old they are. It makes them look harder. The warmth in their face goes away. It is not a good look."

This is why this ex-wife of Brad Pitt has opted for healthier beauty regimens like maintaining good diet and regular exercise in order for her to keep up with "competition". Let's face it, it's extremely important to look good if actresses want to have a successful career on TV and movies. Jennifer Aniston explained: "I'm a realist. If I eat burgers and fries everyday I won't get the parts I'm offered. I'd become a character actress, that might be fine one day bit not right now."  (Photo Credit:

Maria Sharapova shines at Pan Pacific Open

Maria Sharapova overwhelmed Samantha Stosur of Australia in a swift 6-0, 6-1 victory on Tuesday at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo.
The former world No 1 fired seven aces and hit a first-serve percentage of 71, in addition to a barrage of sizzling shots that ended the match in 57 minutes at the Ariake Colosseum.

However, Sharapova admits she may no longer be feared.

The Russian said she was grateful for her "second career" after a nightmare injury lay-off and insisted she had the tools to return to the top of the women's game.

"In some way I wish I could say I was vacationing for 10 months and then all of a sudden I kind of wanted to play again," Sharapova said.

"But every single day I was trying to find a way to get back out there. It's hard when something is taken away from you. For me it was about three or four months where I really didn't pick up a racket.

"That was the first time in my life I've had to do that since I started playing tennis. It was really strange waking up and knowing you're not going to go out on the court."

Sharapova has climbed to 25th in the world since returning to action in May after shoulder surgery.

The three-times grand slam singles champion said she had reached a different stage in her career.

"It's obviously like a second career in a way when you're almost out of the rankings and you're working your way up and you're not feared anymore," she said.

Sharapova's victory over Stosur propelled the former Tokyo champion into the last 16.

Yet to add to her 19 career singles titles since her return, Sharapova insisted she would be a major force again.

"Grand slams are still the focus," the 22 year-old said. "I know if I do well and perform at a certain level which I know I can then those goals will be met."

Mayumi Heene Squeals - Balloon Boy Mom Admits Hoax

Now it is all clear! The balloon boy saga is entirely a hoax that was fabricated by the Heene couple. Mayumi Heene already submitted her affidavit that states that "knew all along that Falcon was hiding in the residence". Balloon boy mom cannot take lying any longer because it really feels awful to tell your children to lie in front of all people regarding the plan they hatched up 2 weeks earlier as they wanted to be "more marketable" to the media.

Larimer County Sheriff Jim Alderden strongly insisted that the Heenes must face legal consequences for their conspiracy, contributing to the delinquency their children, making a false report to authorities, and attempting to influence a public servant. These charges are may carry a maximum sentence of six years in lawful custody. See the Reuters report.

X-Factor Wants Lady Gaga as Mentor

After Whitney Houston last week, the hit UK reality show X-Factor wants Lady Gaga next. True enough, X-Factor bigwigs are groveling on their knees to get the Poker Face singer on the show despite her bashing of reality shows to be giving contestants "false understanding" of success.

Lady Gaga was once quoted that:

If you win a TV show and you have a hit record, you sort of have a false understanding of what it means to earn success.

The shows are set up for a winner, for someone to win. Whereas with someone like me, who writes my own songs, you have to set yourself up to win.

However, X-Factor executives are unfazed about those comments because they are bound to make the celebrity guest list this year as their strongest ever. They already guested Robbie Williams and Whitney Houston. Bon Jovi is also due to appear in X-Factor too on November 1. Another celebrity up in the guest list is Shakira. Well, then, Lady Gaga should clear up her schedule because UK fans will be surely pining for her eccentric dance moves on their favorite TV show.
