Daisy Lowe loves women’s bodies

| Sunday, May 9, 2010
The 21-year-old model doesn’t understand why she would be criticised for posing naked because she thinks her curvy frame, and all versions of the female form, should be celebrated.

She said: 'The female form is a beautiful thing. People are like, 'Oh, you get naked all the time.’ I got naked twice – just twice – and yes, maybe that’s twice too many, but I think that women’s bodies are great.'

However, the brunette beauty – who is dating 'Doctor Who’ actor Matt Smith - insists there is nothing sordid about nudity.

She added to Vogue magazine: 'I don’t want to do pornos. It’s a tasteful thing.'

Daisy also defended her fashion choices, and believes people should never be criticised for their style.

She said: 'I thought the whole point was to have fun with clothes? Sorry if that offends anyone.'

Gwyneth Paltrow says wearing shorts is 'ridiculous'

|
Gwyneth Paltrow thinks wearing shorts as a 37-year-old mother-of-two is "ridiculous".

The actress - who has children Apple, five and Moses, four, with Coldplay singer Chris Martin - admits she has to work hard to maintain her trim physique, but her friend Tracy Anderson's dance workout helps her get into shape.

She said: "This 26-minute long video was an amazing start for getting the butt and legs I had always hoped for.

"This regime got me into the shape of my life and I continue to return to it when I have a specific event so that I can do ridiculous things like be a 37-year-old mother-of-two and wear shorts!"

Writing in her GOOP newsletter, Gwyneth also claims she has to diet in short spurts to get good results.

"To really get in line, I follow her strict diet for five days to lose my extra winter weight. Now, I am not a good dieter and I cannot every do it for long - only when there is a goal in sight, which there was in this case."

Previously the 'Iron Man 2' star has revealed her distaste at the idea of dieting, and claims she puts on weight as soon as she thinks about cutting down on food.

She said: "I had to work hard to get it like this, but now I'm here it's so great because I don't have to think about it. I can just enjoy life. What a relief is that.

"I can eat what I want, as long as I exercise, which is just as well, because if I put the word 'diet' into my brain, I immediately gain a stone."

Katie Melua unsure of her sexuality

|
The 25-year-old singer – who was previously in a relationship with Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard - admits she is often confused by her attractions to people, but is currently single.

She said: 'We live in the 21st century - questions of sexuality are not outdated, but I don’t think the lines are very clear and they are not always clear to me.

'I can tell you that I’m single, which is not lovely, but it is what it is. I really don’t think whether you are gay or not is the whole identity of a person. It’s just one side; it doesn’t have to be the thing that defines you.'

In 2006, reports surfaced that Katie had formed a close friendship with openly lesbian photographer Lara Bloom, although no romantic relationship was ever confirmed.

Discussing her latest album 'The House’ – masterminded by legendary musician-and-producer William Orbit – Katie claims it is a departure from her previous work and a journey of self discovery for her.

She said: 'If this is album is about something, it’s the puzzle of being alive, the mind maze of going inside your head and trying to figure out what the hell is going on in there.'
