Anna Kendrick Stuns In Lanvin Minidress At 'Love Life' Premiere

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 08:55 PM PST

Anna Kendrick more than showed off her toned legs and her killer sense of style while attending the Season 2 premiere of hit series Love Life last year. The actress and fashionista rocked up to the event going super-girly in blush pinks, but it was a leggy affair as the 36-year-old went pins out and in high heels.

Anna shared the photos to Instagram - while the account has been fairly quiet over COVID, it's been ramping up action of late, and also not short on the #designer. Anna went with classic French label Lanvin - see her dress below.

Stuns In Lanvin

Scroll for the photo. It showed the brunette right on the red carpet and glancing behind her as she went glam in a strapless and pink satin dress with a train - the short finish wasn't covering her up, though. Showing off her toned shoulders, Anna also rocked a strappy pair of black heeled sandals, with a ponytail hairdo keeping things light.

Taking to her caption as over 260,000 likes poured in, the Pitch Perfect alum wrote: "LOVE LIFE @lanvinofficial," also tagging HBO Max. A like was quickly left by former co-star Rebel Wilson, herself in the news of late for a slew of designer looks.

Anna quickly followed her shot while posing with her co-star William Jackson Harper - Season 2 of LL sees Harper take over as lead while Anna's character steps back.

Opening Up On Darby Character

Last year, Anna geared fans up for Season 2 of the series seeing millennials navigate their love lives, stating:

"For Season 2, we knew we wanted the stories to be connected somehow and we weren’t sure how we were going to accomplish that." She added: "I think making it this tenuous connection so Darby could come in and out of the season as needed was perfect. And so, in order to accomplish that, they found the easiest thing to do was to go back a little bit in time and meet Marcus at this tipping point in his life."

No Longer The Lead!

Anna also opened up on taking a step out of the limelight:

Still Admits It's Good

The actress revealed: "Now that I’m not the lead of the show, I feel like I’m finally allowed to say, “I love this f**king show so much. It’s so good! I watched Will’s episodes and I’m like, “Damn, this is just so good.”

Simone Biles Stuns In Bubblegum-Pink Bikini

Simone Biles looked stunning while perched on a wooden balcony and bikini-clad as she dropped both her Gold Medal body and her signature sense of humor ahead of the New Year. Posting to Instagram, the 24-year-old gymnast shared a shot from her vacation, with the November photo now sitting at over 121,000 likes.

Biles, who hid her face, made sure fans saw the ripped physique, but the vibe wasn't too "show-off" as she chilled out on a beach porch, also showing off her girly side while in a bucket hat.

Stuns In Pink Bikini

Scroll for the photo. It came amid a slew of bikini snaps as Biles enjoyed a luxurious tropical vacation. The Ohio native, who'd kicked it all off while "living bikin loca" in a white two-piece, switched things up to pink as she perched amid the woods, showing off her muscly legs and and gently tugging at her bikini bottoms.

Fans got a huge flash of the Olympian abs, with "He said that he prada me" coming as the caption. Anyone zooming in on the headwear got the reference - Biles was wearing a black bucket hat from luxury Italian brand Prada.

Simone quickly gained likes, including one from NFL player boyfriend Jonathan Owens. "You look so Gucci," one user joked. "Just WOW," another said.

Biles, of course, also received plenty of comments on the shredded abs - keep scrolling to find out what she eats.

Doesn't Track Her Calories

The superstar gymnast, who opened up to Women's Health on what she feeds herself, has revealed that it isn't about counting every little thing that goes in - or everything that's burned off.

"I do not track anything," she said. "I eat what I feel good with and try not to overeat or stuff myself because I'm always at the gym." Biles even added: "For gymnasts, in particular, [tracking] can lead to health problems and eating issues, so I just eat what I know I can and should." Simone and beau Jonathan have made headlines for jointly wolfing down bowls of spaghetti with plenty of grated cheese - there's an appetite.

Needs Her Protein

Also discussed was the one thing fueling Simone's active days. Biles told the magazine:

"I love having a Core Power Protein Shake after a workout. Usually I drink half after the first practice and half after the second practice. One of my favorite flavors at the moment is vanilla. It always changes, but it's currently vanilla."

Five Unbelievable Celebrities Who Insured Their Body Parts

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 05:22 PM PST

Heidi Klum's shocking revelation on Ellen DeGeneres' Farewell show prompted us to revisit the issue of body part insurance. Your favorite celebrities aren't taking chances with life, as they've insured valuable body parts against possible accidents.

Considering these are their selling points, we can't judge them for taking such precautions. We can, however, envy them because they have the luxury to earn millions from possible loss! Here are five surprising celebrity-insured body parts and their worth.

5. Miley Cyrus

There are, maybe, a hundred pictures of Miley Cyrus sticking out her tongue all over the internet. Since her iconic controversial 2013 MTV VMA performance, the singer-songwriter made it her thing.

She mentioned that it helped her overcome social anxiety dealing with paparazzi, so she thought the best way to appreciate the little fellow was to tag it with a million dollars! We hope our tongues aren't reading this.

4. Rihanna

Rihanna's famous for building a fashion empire after conquering the music scene, but that's not what the Island girl covets. Though many people admire the Savage X Fenty founder for her goddess-like face and figure, she chose to insure her legs for $1 million.

Reportedly, her 2007 Venus Breeze Celebrity Legs of a Goddess Award from Gillette prompted the action – a million dollars for an award-winning limb seems like a fair trade.

3. Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian's bum is another celebrity on its own, so it's not so surprising that she insured the massive body part. What's staggering is the $21 million premium she dropped on the policy.

Kim K's figure-8 body started a movement she didn't envision – BBLs are on the rise worldwide, and people are desperate to look at the SKIMS founder. She's become one of the most famous figures on the cosmetic surgery wishlist.

2. Taylor Swift

So, Heidi Klum and Rihanna aren't the only hot legs concerned about their lower limbs. Rumor has it that Taylor Swift insured hers for a jaw-dropping 40 million dollars before her 1989 World tour.

Not only does the 32-year-old Grammy award winner have enviable long legs standing at 5'11", but she also dances during her performances. That explains her decision to drop 40 million cool cash on them.

1. Mariah Carey

The whistle queen is taking no chances with aging or broken vocal cords. Mariah Carey insured her 5-octave chord for $35 million after a scare during her world tour.

The most exciting thing about the Grammy-award winning singer is her double policy. Mariah allegedly also secured her long legs for... wait for it… $1 BILLION.

Although PEOPLE says the policy on the legs is the same as the vocal cords, Love Money claims the chart-topping singer confirmed the Billion-dollar insurance in a BET interview.

Bol Bol's Surgery Clears Controversy Surrounding Failed Nuggets-Pistons Trade

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 05:11 PM PST

Former Oregon Ducks center Bol Bol was recently involved in a controversy. A few days ago, Bol was supposed to be the newest member of the Detroit Pistons. On Twitter, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that the Denver Nuggets were finalizing a deal that would send Bol to the Pistons in exchange for Rodney McGruder and a future second-round pick.

The Pistons would have been a great trade destination for Bol as they could offer him more playing time and a significant role on the offensive end of the floor.

Pistons Have Reason To Void Bol Bol Trade

Unfortunately, the Pistons decided to void the trade after Bol failed their physical test. The Pistons' decision to cancel the deal with the Nuggets has been met with controversy, especially after some reports revealed that Bol wasn't dealing with any injury. The Pistons were even accused of "destroying young players" by former NBA player Donatas Motiejunas, who had the same experience with Detroit in 2016 when they voided a trade with the Houston Rockets.

However, unlike Motiejunas' situation, it seems like the Pistons have enough reasons to void the Bol trade with the Nuggets.

Bol Bol Undergo A Surgery

While there was no known report about a recent injury, it seems like Bol isn't really 100 percent healthy. After the Nuggets-Pistons deal got voided, Mike Singer of The Denver Post reported that the 22-year-old center will undergo right foot surgery on Tuesday. Nuggets head coach Mike Malone said that the decision to have surgery was made by Bol and his agent.

"Bol, his representation, once that trade was rescinded because of the failed physical, they felt that it was in his best interest to have the surgery and to address why that physical was failed," Malone said. "And that's the decision that him and his representatives made. I wish Bol a speedy recovery."

Pistons Cleared Of Controversy

Bol's decision to undergo a right foot surgery cleared the Pistons from any controversy surrounding their voided deal with the Nuggets. However, it seems like the Nuggets didn't really know that the former No. 44 pick was dealing with a right-foot injury. A source who spoke to The Denver Post revealed that the Nuggets were "taken aback" by the Pistons' decision to cancel the trade centered around Bol.

When he was asked by the voided trade with the Nuggets last week, Malone said that they felt Bol was "healthy."

Bol Bol Gets Traded To Celtics

The failed trade with the Pistons has undoubtedly made things awkward between Bol and the Nuggets. However, it didn't take long before the Nuggets found Bol a new home. Less than a month before the 2022 NBA trade deadline, the Nuggets have engaged in a three-team trade with the Boston Celtics and the San Antonio Spurs to send Bol to Beantown, according to Twitter post by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

In the reported three-team trade by Woj, the Celtics got Bol and PJ Dozier, the Nuggets received Bryn Forbes, and the Spurs landed Juancho Hernangomez.

NBA Rumors: Sixers Refused To Trade Ben Simmons To Kings For Hield, Barnes, Haliburton & Draft Picks

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 03:14 PM PST

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons is one of the NBA superstars who are frequently mentioned in various trade speculations. Though the Sixers continue to make efforts to convince him to stay, Simmons doesn't seem to be interested in repairing his relationship with the team and badly wanted to start a new journey somewhere else.

Despite the major flaws in his game, the former No. 1 pick continues to receive strong interest from aspiring contenders that are in need of additional star power and rebuilding teams that want to speed up their timeline.

Ben Simmons To Sacramento Kings

One of the teams that have expressed a strong interest in acquiring Simmons from the Sixers is the Sacramento Kings. With the team likely heading into another huge disappointment, rumors are circulating that the Kings are planning to undergo another massive roster overhaul. Simmons may still have plenty of things that he needs to improve in his game but with his huge superstar potential, he would be an interesting centerpiece of the next title-contending team that the Kings would try to build in Sacramento.

Less than a month before the 2022 NBA trade deadline, Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports revealed that the Kings had "exploratory talks" with the Sixers regarding a potential Simmons blockbuster.

Kings Made Massive Offer For Ben Simmons

In a recent article, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer share some interesting updates on the rumors linking Simmons to the Kings. According to Pompey, the Kings tried to acquire Simmons from the Sixers for a trade package that includes Buddy Hield, Harrison Barnes, Tyrese Haliburton, and two future first-round picks.

"One source said Sacramento has considered packaging Buddy Hield, Tyrese Haliburton, Harrison Barnes and 2 1st-round picks for Simmons, Harris and Thybulle," Pompey wrote, as quoted by Hoop Central, via Twitter. "However, the source said the Sixers aren't interested in that package."

Sixers Overvaluing Ben Simmons

The Kings' offer would undeniably be an intriguing return for the Sixers. Aside from acquiring a young and promising talent in Haliburton and two future first-round picks, the Sixers would also receive an elite three-point shooter in Hield and a floor-spacing forward with championship experience in Barnes.

However, as of now, most people won't be surprised that the Sixers rejected the Kings' proposal. Since the 2021 NBA offseason, Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey has been telling everyone in the league that they would only trade Simmons for a package that includes an All-Star caliber player in return.

Kings Keeping De'Aaron Fox

Earlier in the 2021-22 NBA season, rumors were circulating that the Kings were willing to offer a trade package centered around Fox to acquire Simmons from the Sixers. However, the Kings have a change of heart a month before the 2022 NBA trade deadline. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Kings already intended to keep Fox for the remainder of the 2021-22 NBA season.

The Kings have reportedly informed Fox that they are planning to continue building around him and Haliburton.

CrossFit Athlete Brooke Wells In Bikini Celebrates 'Twins'

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 03:10 PM PST

What's better than one CrossFit athlete? Two. Brooke Wells and her twin sister Sydney Wells became a sporting sensation when the latter qualified for the 2021 CrossFit Open alongside her sister. The sisters started the new year with a girls' weekend to prepare for the ride ahead. Here's to celebrating twins – double the fun and trouble (just kidding, not.)

Unidentical

Brooke asked her followers earlier in the year if they thought she and Sydney were identical. The CrossFit athlete posted a complete frame Instagram picture of herself and her twin in matching outfit combinations. Sydney wore bum shorts with red flip flops and a tank top, while Brooke wore a tube kerchief tank, bum shorts, and grey slides.

She wrote, "Identical TWINS. I want to know if you guys think we look like it or not?" Then she added the hashtag #doubtroub meaning Double Trouble (see, we weren't wrong in the first place.)

'Doublemint Twins'

Brooke and Sydney pose in bikinis on their girls' weekend trip in Miami. The CrossFit sisters flaunt insanely sculpted abs in matching styles. While Sydney wore a white two-piece with a crocheted skirt, Brooke wore a nude set without a coverall. They both wore their blonde hair in a center parting and hung black shades atop their heads.

Unless you look closely, you almost can't tell them apart; then you'll realize Brooke is the shorter twin. Their friend and colleague Shannon Ford also made a cameo in the second slide sandwiching between the twins in her blue bikini and sarong. They cheekily called her the "Redhead."

Fitness In The Sunshine

Fitness is a lifestyle, and Brooke agrees because she made time to work out during her girls' trip. "Doesn't get much better than fitnessing in the sunshine with my girls," she wrote on her Instagram. The accompanying picture is a sea of perfectly sculpted abs as the CrossFit ladies pose in athleisure tights and sports bras.

Staying Fit

Brooke shares more videos of her time working out in Miami, including a short reel of her doing EMOM. She details the routine in her caption are reminds her followers that "Miami workouts hit different."

The intense exercise included, "10 minutes EMOM: 2 reps of 1 & 1/4th Front Squat; 30 minutes EMOM: 15 Wallballs, 12 Cal Ski, and 9 Hang Power Clean; 3 Sets: 10 dumbbell bench press." Phew! I definitely lost weight writing that. Becoming a CrossFit athlete isn't for the fainthearted that we can assure you.

Erika Jayne In Bikini Flaunts ‘Doll Parts’

Posted: 19 Jan 2022 02:59 PM PST

Erika Jayne prides herself on being a gorgeous businesswoman, and after you see these pictures, you'll understand why. The 50-year-old former singer knows how to capture attention without trying hard. Asides from her perfect face, the reality TV star shows us constantly that she has the body to match. Seeing this picture, we agree with her caption, "Doll Parts," because she looks like she walked out of a Mattel inc. Photoshoot.

Doll Parts

Jayne brings "Jungle Barbie" to life in this reimagined safari-like photoshoot. The Pretty Mess founder poses in red floral lingerie as she accessorizes with matching stilettos, ring, and dark sunglasses. She styles her hair in a long blonde body wave reaching her waist as she flaunts a perfectly sculpted body.

The reality TV star stands on the edge of a pool, with a palm tree backdrop, under the shadow of night. Seriously, the picture looks surreal, and some of her followers think so too – One user wrote, "Sis is 50. If I don't look like this in 25 years, I'd be mad." Haha, we'll see about that.

Bling, Bling

In her instagram post, Jayne poses in the pool for a close-up shot of the red floral underwear. She leans against the pool's edge as she arches her back for a full view of her boobs in a side profile. The camera flash reflects on her diamond jewelry causing it to glitter in the dark. She angles her head backward, displaying a sleek neck as her platinum hair falls to her back.

On the side, she flaunts her perfectly manicured nails captioning the picture "LA." Indeed the picture looks like a scene from a Femme Fatale L. A. movie.

Erika Jayne's Workout Plan

We're just kidding. This isn't an exposé section on Erika Jayne's workout plan but a play on Kanye West's 2004 single of the same name. Jayne poses on a lounge chair in a blue lace complete lingerie set – stockings, garter, bra, and panties all check. She accessorizes with a pink and black sunshade and gold multi-layered chain.

Jayne hoists her right leg high while balancing her weight with the left. Beside her is a pair of pink and blue mules to complement the shade of her lingerie.

Hollywood Confidential

The reality TV star concludes her Hollywood-inspired series with a classic black and white picture. Still wearing the set from the "Workout plan" segment (minus the stockings plus the shoes), Jayne poses, reading a magazine. The camera's flash reflects on her sunshades as she channels her inner Eva Green in A Dame To Die For.
