Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen are selling their 14,000-square-foot Brentwood self-build amidst plans to relocate to the other side of the States. The American football player and the Brazilian model are said to have spent $20 million constructing the palatial property which above all other features, is eco-friendly. The wealthy pair could be set to scoop a hefty profit if the mansion sells for its current $50 million asking price.

Completed in 2013 after five years of construction, the breathtakingly huge mansion is basically a fortress, boasting a longdrive, several turrets, hundreds of trees surrounding its perimeter and - the piece-de-resistance - a moat festooned with koi carp. Listed with the Westside Estate Agency, the house features six bedrooms, a gourmet kitchen, a library, a state-of-the-art gym, a swimming pool, a lift, a butler's room and several fountains.

Lauren Silverman Looks Svelte 3 Days After Birth, Other Celeb Mums Who Bounced Back Into Shape


Simon Cowell Lauren Silverman Heidi Klum Victoria Beckham Kate Middleton

Just three days ago, Simon Cowell’s girlfriend, Lauren Silverman gave birth to their son, Eric. You’d think that the 36 year old new mum would have been bed bound for a few days to recover from the birth, but Lauren was out and about in New York yesterday and you wouldn’t even be able to tell that she’d just had a baby. Sporting a pair of slim leg leather trousers, Lauren looked in fabulous shape and even better spirits as she shopped for baby clothes.

Celebrity mums seem almost super human in their ability to bounce back into shape immediately after giving birth. While us laypeople struggle to lose the pregnancy pounds, the celebs are back in phenomenal shape within just a few weeks of popping out their little ones.

Heidi Klum Stops Moisturising For Halloween: See The Jaw-Dropping Results [Pictures]


Heidi Klum

When it comes to choosing a Halloween costume as a girl it unfortunately means that there's an overwhelming pressure to go down the 'slutty' route and show as much flesh as possible in the guise of celebrating the spooky holiday. However supermodel Heidi Klum decided to go against the grain once again this year and pull out of the bag what is arguably the most stunning costume we've seen this week.

Heidi Klum
Heidi Usually: Take A Good Look & Prepare To Be Stunned.

Klum is known for her creative costume ideas over the years, from the Hindu goddess Kali, to a Garden of Eden apple complete with snake, a red witch with an entire skeleton strapped to her back, to a creepily realistic ape, and a skinless human. At Klum's annual Halloween party this year, all eyes were on the doors waiting for the towering model to make her entrance. However, everyone was confused when a little old lady shuffled in.

"I Did What Any Mother Would Do." - Heidi Klum Rescues Son And Nanny During Hawaii Trip


Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum probably deserves a mom of the year award after pulling her son Henry and one of his nannies out of the ocean and saving them from drowning. The terrifying incident occurred during Klum’s trip to Hawaii with her four kids – Henry, 7, Leni, 8, Johan, 6, and Lou, 3. Henry was apparently caught in a dangerous rip current, along with the nanny and Heidi immediately rushed to the rescue – not only for her son, but for the woman as well.

"Henry swam out of it. I grabbed him at the shore. The nannies were the ones in much deeper trouble," Klum told People magazine after the incident.

One of the most unsettling things for the 39-year-old supermodel was the fact that, instead of rushing to help, a number of bystanders on the beach simply pulled out their cameras and started taking pictures of the incident and of Heidi slipping out of her bikini top during the rescue operation. Of course, this now gives gossip blogs plenty of fodder for the coming days, but Heidi expressed her disappointment in her interview with People.

New 'America’s Got Talent' Judge Heidi Klum Revealed By Set Design


Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum is set to preside over one fourth of the 'America’s Got Talent' judging panel. The German-American model, after some last minute negotiations, is off to New Orleans, where the first auditions are being taped.

She’ll team up with judges Howie Mandel, Howard Stern and fellow newbie Mel B, who, like Klum, could be recognised by name in a picture of the set obtained and published by celebrity gossip site, TMZ. Heidi has been the host and chief judge on Project Runway since the fashion reality show debuted back in 2005, which will give her some experience on judging talent, but we’re not sure how she’ll fair when someone tries to pull a knife out of their…. Mum, or something. Talking of her fashion exploits, Klum will be doubly satisfied as Germany’s Next Top Model has finally premiered in Germany, a full two months after completion. The reason for the delay was their decision to film segments in Dubai. “It all started when I thought why not invite Heidi and the whole production team here in Dubai. I felt that I was part of their family since I have been working with them for six consecutive years and wanted to show them what Dubai was really like,” explained fashion designer Furne One.” So, after a series of discussions, we finally made it happen.”

Fresh from her recent court appearances, it was a disheveled looking Lindsay Lohan that took to the amFAR Awards red carpet in New York last night (February 6, 2013). The star has been in court again after allegations that she broke the terms of her probation by getting into another car-relates scrape. Various reports have been knocking around that she's struggling with the ongoing troubles in her life - albeit many of them self-inflicted - and she looked less than 100% last night.

The People's Choice Awards Sees Success For Taylor Swift And The Wanted (Pictures)

Taylor Swift, People's Choice Awards

Taylor Swift was among the big winners at the People's Choice Awards last night (January 9, 2013)

Taylor Swift and The Wanted were undoubtedly the biggest names to take home People's Choice Awards last night at the 39th annual version of the event. Taking place in Los Angeles, the ceremony was also notable for other guests including Paris Hilton, Julianne Hough, Naomi Watts and Lea Michele. The entirely fan-voted for awards saw Taylor Swift take home the Favorite Country Artist gong, though she once again found herself in a 'Kanye' situation as Olivia Munn initially refused to give her the statuette. It was all for play though, with Swift laughing "Oh God... this always happens!"

Heidi Klum On Marriage: "I Don't Have The Urgency Anymore"


Heidi Klum Seal

Following Heidi Klum's divorce from Seal, the model isn't harbouring any plans to re-marry or find a young man to wake up next to. She's been talking to Marie Claire about her lack of marital ambition. 

"No. No," Klum tells Marie Claire at the very mention of another marriage. "I wanted to keep the memory of our wedding alive every year, and that's why I thought it would be fun to get married over and over. But now I don't think it is that important." The Project Runway presenter added that she'd only consider getting married under special circumstances. "Maybe if I'm with someone for 15 or 20 years, and we do it in our old age as a fun thing to do," she says. "But I don't have the urgency anymore."

Considering her recent divorce from Seal, who, let's face it, is no spring chicken, Klum could be forgiven for wanting to try out some younger guys. But she's not keen on that, "because the truth is that when men get older, their shape changes," she told the magazine. "Younger men train more, and when the clothes come off, it is nice to look at a sexy, ripped body. But I am realistic. ... I don't think I could deal with waking up next to a 25-year-old."

Styled To Rock: Is Rihanna The New Heidi Klum?


Rihanna Heidi Klum Tyra Banks Nicola Roberts Henry Holland

Billboard chart-topper Rihanna is making the foray into the worlds of beauty, fashion and television by hosting her own reality show that challenges designers to make outfits for celebrities. Sound a bit too much like Project Runway? Well, that's because it is, but then there's the celebrity thing. Of course. 

Premiering in late 2013, 'Styled to Rock' will see 12 aspiring designers handpicked by the Grammy-award winner. They will be tasked with styling a celebrity guest on each episode (don't tell us: Katy Perry?) with Rihanna and the VIP choosing who should progress to the next round. "Fashion has always played an integral part in my life and career. I am so excited to partner with Style Network and share my creative insight with these 12 designers and give them this opportunity to showcase their work," Rihanna, 24, said in a statement. The series will be a version of the show of the same name that the singer road-toasted over the summer. Airing on Sky Living, that show featured Pussycat Dolls star Nicola Roberts, British fashion designer Henry Holland and Rihanna's stylist Lysa Cooper.

Despite her recent Billboard chart success with Unapologetic, it appears Rihanna is continuing to spread her wings in the entertainment industry and it's not difficult to envisage her filling a similar role to Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum on their respective model and fashion reality shows.

Heidi Klum's Halloween Party Ruined By Hurricane Sandy


Heidi Klum

Heidi Klum's Halloween parties are famous. The stars don their best outfits and gather for a night of high-class horror at the annual New York shindig. But, alas, Hurricane Sandy, after having its say on so many things, has ruled that Klum's big night be postponed.

"Hope you & your loved ones are safe after the storm," tweeted Klum, who was all ready to dress up as Cleopatra this Halloween. "Canceling my Halloween party ... postponing to a haunted Christmas." It was reported that Klum had four fittings for her impressive Egyptian outfit. It's not just the stars that miss out on their Halloween fun, regular Joes like you and us at Contact Music were sad to hear that the annual New York Village Halloween Parade has been cancelled for the first time in its four-decade history. "Unfortunately, we just cannot spare the manpower from the NYPD and other city agencies to host the annual Greenwich Village Halloween Parade, so we are postponing it to a later date sometime next week," MTV reported New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg saying. "We'll work tomorrow and figure out what date makes sense given the resources the city has."

Given the serious nature of Sandy, and the unprecedented damage and destruction to America's East side, precaution is the watch word as the city of New York finally sees the back end of the terrible storm.

Video - Heidi Klum Looks Stunning In Red On Her Arrival At ABC Studios


Supermodel Heidi Klum is snapped by photographers on arriving and leaving Abc Studios for her appearance on 'Good Morning America'. The 39-year-old is wearing a modest, calf-length red dress with a pleated front and stylish flowing sleeves; it's no wonder the paparazzi insist on her stopping so they can get a 'fashion shot'.

The glamorous 'Project Runway' host is currently going through a divorce with musician Seal which has recently turned bitter since she admitted her relationship with former bodyguard Martin Kristen. Seal made a comment on the situation suggesting that Klum was a cheat, but quickly backtracked and released a statement insisting that he was only pointing out that they were still technically married

Video - Heidi Klum Take Her Children Around Manhattan With Seal's Brother


Supermodel Heidi Klum takes her four children; Leni, 8, Henry, 6, Johan, 5 and Lou, 2; out in Manhattan. Klum pushes Lou in her pushchair while her ex-husband Seal's brother and another friend follow her holding the others' hands. She's stops to chat to a male friend briefly before crossing a road.

The 39-year-old certainly doesn't look like she's struggling too much since her divorce from her husband of seven years, soul singer Seal, 49, which took place earlier this year (2012) back in April. Though she equally doesn't look in high spirits and stops in the middle of the street to seemingly answer a text message

Video - Heidi Klum Browsing In A Stylish Manhattan Clothing Store


German/ American supermodel Heidi Klum looks around a clothing store in Manhattan wearing an elegant red dress and her hair tied in an up-do. She vaguely checks out a clothing rail near the entrance before moving to the other side of the room.

The 'Project Runway' presenter caused a stir in the press recently when she tweeted a not so recent picture of herself grinning and flashing her retro gold underwear as she bent down getting into a car in a short skirt. It was soon followed by a photo of Klum devouring a large cheesy pizza sending out the obvious message to women everywhere that pizza leads to prominent cheekbones and long, slender legs. If only!

Video - Heidi Klum Cheered By Children At LAX


Supermodel Heidi Klum is greeted with a loud cheer from her children as she gets into a black car with them on her arrival at LAX airport.

The 38-year-old fashion icon had arrived from the Cannes Film Festival where she dazzled the red carpet with glamorous gowns including a racy (but elegant) transparent dress which had nothing but embroidered patterns protecting her modesty beneath. While in Cannes, she took part in a celeb auction where winners could win a back massage from her; the event was to raise funds for The American Foundation for AIDS Research (amFAR)

Video - Heidi Klum Takes Children Out For Birthday Party And Lunch


Supermodel Heidi Klum takes her children out with her mother to Eco Station in Culver City, Los Angeles, for a friend's birthday. They then go for lunch at Manhattan Beach.

Earlier this year it was announced that the successful model/actress/presenter was to divorce Grammy winning soul singer Seal after more than six years of marriage and annual wedding vow renewals. Heidi cited 'irreconcilable differences' as the reason for divorce. The couple have three children together and Heidi has one from a previous relationship who she gave birth to soon after she started dating Seal - Seal adopted the child as her real father was not involved in her life

Video - Heidi Klum Puts Divorce Behind Her As She Spends Time With Kids


Despite what may be happening between herself and estranged husband Seal, Heidi Klum still hasn't forgot that she is a mother first as she spent time with her children in Los Angeles. The model/TV presenter took her sons Henry and Johan to karate classes, later taking them to a nearby toy shop in the Brentwood district of the city just days after her divorce with the singer Seal was finalised.

Regardless of recent events, she looked positive and smiley in her flowing pink maxi dress as she got to spend quality time with her sons. She was without her daughters Leni, 7, and Lou, 2, who must not be fans of the martial art

Blow Dry Review


Weak
Hmmm, what's this movie with Josh Hartnett and Rachael Leigh Cook on the cover? Must be some nutty teen comedy, right?

Well, with one cancer diagnosis and one death in the first 15 minutes, Blow Dry is hardly the feel-good romance you'd expect. Strikingly similar to The Big Tease, Blow Dry tells the story of a haircutting competition that descends on a small town in Britain. Celebrities (well, celebrity stylists) from around England arrive to compete, and the local boys get into the act as well. But while the drama unfolds with models and shears, another drama takes place among the locals -- largely involving various romances and a singular cancer victim.

Blow Dry Review


Weak

"Blow Dry" is a leaden British dramedy about an estranged family of hairdressers reconciling when a big coiffeur competition comes to their small town. Like "The Big Tease" -- a similarly themed English mockumentary that came out last year, delaying the release of this one -- its laughs come mostly from tired flamboyancy stereotypes.

Hairdressers with over-styled, out-of-date dos and David Copperfield-like showmanship bite each other's backs to win what is apparently a prestigious award for clever and speedy hair cutting. Meanwhile a sad-sack local barber (Alan Rickman) enters the competition with his son (Josh Hartnett, "The Virgin Suicides") to face down his former salon partner (Bill Nighy), now the nation's star hairdresser and the dirty-tricking front-runner in the contest.

Besides suffering from the same problems "The Big Tease" had -- basically that it's a cliché-riddled underdog sports movie with a dye job and a limp wrist -- "Blow Dry" is also saddled with a maudlin, comedy-antidote subplot about Rickman's estranged lesbian ex-wife (Natasha Richardson), who is bravely dying of cancer 10 years after leaving him for his hair model (a criminally under-used Rachel Griffiths). Brought together again by the competition, everybody gets busy forgiving.

Ella Enchanted Review


OK

Following in the footsteps of the "Fractured Fairy Tales" cartoons, "The Princess Bride," "Ever After," "Shrek" and "A Knight's Tale" -- but never quite matching any of their wit or novelty -- "Ella Enchanted" is an amusingly self-aware fable of handsome princes, evil kings and one very plucky heroine caught up in a magic spell.

Aiming at the tween-ager crowd that made a hit of "The Princess Diaries," 2001's more modern twist on such girlish daydreams, light-hearted director Tommy O'Haver ("Get Over It," "Billy's Hollywood Screen Kiss") enlists "Diaries" charming star Anne Hathaway in the title role as a medieval teenager who was hexed at birth with an obedience spell by an irksome but well-meaning fairy (Vivica A. Fox, stuck in a mock-ghetto-fabulous stereotype).

Having grown up quite stubborn yet unable to resist any demand upon her, Ella manages to get through life keeping her curse on the QT until her widowed father brings home a wicked stepmother (Joanna Lumley) and two even worse and obnoxiously over-played step-sisters (Lucy Punch and Jennifer Higham), who quickly and cruelly figure out that they can make Ella their plaything.
