Never watched film with mom: Prachi

PRACHI DESAI SAYS her mother has sacrificed “her dreams for me and I owe everything to her”. She adds that she has yet to visit a theatre with her mom.

The 24-year-old, who started working at the age of 17, said her mother has been her pillar of strength.

“My mother used to teach in my hometown, Panchgani. She left her career and house just to be with me in Mumbai. I was too young at that time. And she supported me throughout,” the actress said.

The actress, who often receives compliments that she resembles her mother, knows everything about her mother: “Her favourite colours are white and blue. I have never watched a film with her, but her favourite movies are Kati Patang and Mera Saya.

The actress was in New Delhi with her mother Amita Desai to launch a survey on mothers done by P&G called ‘Thank You, Mom’.

She admitted never giving importance to her mother’s dreams. “My mother always thinks about me and the family. But I never asked her about her dreams. She says she wants me and my sister to be happy and successful,” said Prachi. power by : www.khaleejtimes.com

Rosario Dawson’s Beauty Look Explained.

Rosario Dawson's make-up artist says 'a little goes a long way' when creating her red carpet looks.

The actress recently turned heads at the premiere of her latest film Trance where she dazzled in a scarlet sequinned number.

Rosario's make-up artist Mary Greenwell says her sparkling form was the result of a gorgeous gown and flawless face.

'Rosario looked stunning in her Jenny Packham dress, so the aim was to create soft clean make-up with an emphasis on the eyes,' Mary told UK magazine Hello!

'[For smouldering eyes] a little goes a long way on someone as beautiful as Rosario. So I started by applying Chanel Illusion d'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Ebloui to the lids, smudging it with my finger, then brushing up onto the brow bone, to keep the look natural. I used a thick liner at the roots of the lashes, to give a dark, smouldering look, followed by two coats of lengthening and curling mascaras.'

Mary says she created a warm glowing complexion with subtle flushed cheeks for Rosario's face. The finishing touch was a rosy red lip, to complement the shade of the gown.

'Rosario has beautiful colouring and always has a healthy glow so I applied a light veil of Chanel Hydra Beauty Crème,' she explained.

'Rosario needs little colour on her incredible lips, so I simply moisturised with some Sisley Confort Extreme Levres, then added a little UNE Sheer Lips Balm in S08.'

Kate Hudson says 'NO' to uncomfortable clothes.

'Brideswar' star Kate Hudson refuses to wear uncomfortable clothes.

The 34-year-old actress, who is famous for her fashionable choices, said that she will not wear an outfit she does not feel good in because comfort and not style comes first, reported Contactmusic.
"Women need to wear things they are comfortable and confident in. I've had people push dresses on me that are high-fashion, but if I can't walk or I'm uncomfortable, forget it," she said.
Hudson said she loves to wear white.
"If I'm running out the door, it's a dress, whether it's with boots or sandals or flip-flops, a sweater - even if it's cold and I wear a lot of white," she added.

CRICKET PAKISTAN: WASIM AKRAM CALLS OFF MANRRIAGE RUMORS

Pakistan cricket legend Wasim Akram on Friday stipulate respect and privacy from his fans and media. He called for an end "once and for all" rumors about he being getting married to Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen.

Wasim has been consistently linked up to Sushmita Sen, with whom he together hosted Indian dance show Aik Khilari, Aik Haseena (A player, a beauty) back in 2008. Sushmita Sen is the Miss Universe of 1994. While famed pace man Wasim is a widower as his wife, Huma Wasim passed away in October 2009. Wasim said he is fed up of all these rumors.

“I am tired of denying such rumors and now I want this to end once and for all,” Wasim told AFP after Indian media claimed Thursday that the couple were about to tie the knot in Mumbai.

After Indian Media broke the story, Pakistani media also jump into it and speculations were made about another high-profile cross-border hook-up after the 2010 nuptials of Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik and Indian tennis ace Sania Mirza. Wasim advocate that He and Sen are only good friends.

“She is one of the most graceful and decent ladies I have come across,” said Wasim of the 37-year-old Bollywood star. “It was huge fun working as judge with Sushmita as she is a thorough professional and presents herself gracefully.”

The dance show which initiated the conspiracy also featured Indian cricket stars Harbhajan Singh, Dinesh Karthik, Irfan Pathan, Shanthakumaran Sreesanth, Nikhil Chopra and Vinod Kambli. Alongwith Indian channel it was also telecasted on a leading Pakistani channel.

Wasim said that the show was a good experience for him.

“The show was well received and was admired across the borders and that was it. If I get another chance to work with her I will do but I want the media of both the countries to respect us,” said Wasim.

Wasim urged that his main focus is the up-bringing of his two sons, Taimur and Akbar.

“I want to bring them up and make them good and successful human beings, so my life is devoted to my sons,” said Wasim.

Sushmita Sen on the other hand has yet to marry and has adopted two daughters.

Wasim urge the people to respect their personal lives.

“I have my own personal life and she has her own, so the media and fans should not disrespect that,” said Wasim, who has taken a year’s leave as a bowling coach in the Indian Premier League to spend time with sons.

“I have always felt at home in India and the kind of respect I get in India is very pleasing so I will continue to work as and when I get time, but as my sons also needed time I have taken leave from the IPL this year,” said Wasim.

Sharon Stone denies accusations of former nanny, counter sues

Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone has filed a counter charge against the former nanny of her children.

According to a report on Agence France-Presse, the 55-year-old actress, famous for her erotic role in the film "Basic Instinct," has filed a breach-of-loan-agreement action against Filipina Erlinda Elemen in a Los Angeles Superior Court, saying that she owes $9,500 of a $12,500 loan she made to her in 2010.

Stone had Elemen dismissed in February 2011, after allegedly learning that she was being paid overtime when traveling with the children and on holidays.

Last year, the Filipina made public through her lawyers that she is suing the actress.

The actress’s publicist slammed the matter as “absurd,” claiming Elemens was simply trying to “cash in” on Stone.

But a judge has ruled that Elemens has enough evidence to support her allegations against the actress including harassment, failure to prevent harassment, retaliation and wrongful dismissal.

Stone’s lawyers sought to have the case dismissed, arguing that comments made by the actress about "Filipino food, Filipino accents,” did not amount to harassment.

According to Elemens' complaint, Stone equated being Filipino with being stupid, and ordered her not to speak in front of her children so they would not “talk like you.”

Stone also supposedly banned Elemen from reading the Bible in the actress’s home..
