'I Don't Want To Feel Bad About Myself': Hailey Bieber On Why She Quit Runway Modeling

Posted: 09 Apr 2022 07:34 PM PDT

Hailey Bieber, who got her first taste of fame back in 2005, has become a household name for most Americans. Her meteoric rise in the fashion industry should come as no surprise - after all, Bieber is part of the famously good-looking Baldwin family. She is the daughter of William Baldwin and the niece of Alec Baldwin. In 2018, she garnered considerable media attention when she married Justin Bieber. But she has long been a star in her own right, which is why it came as a surprise to her fans when she abruptly stopped runway modeling. At the time, it seemed like a risky and shocking career move for someone who was at the top of their game. Bieber has now revealed why she quit runway modeling and what the future holds for her.

The Rise Of A Supermodel

Bieber's modeling career began in 2014, when she made her debut with Topshop. Despite her 5'7 height, her runway career blossomed. She was soon walking for designers like Tommy Hilfiger, Botega Veneta, and Jeremy Scott. The only other supermodel that shared her average height is Kate Moss, who broke industry standards in the 1990s. But in the beginning, Bieber derived a sense of pride and accomplishment from her runway work, in part because she was so in-demand even though her modeling peers were much taller.

Keep scrolling to learn why she left the runway and how she bounced back.

A Bad Experience

The last time Bieber walked the runway was in December of 2019, for Versace. Not long after the show, she posted a photo of herself on Instagram criticizing the placement and bent of her arm. She noted that runway modeling was not her thing. Many fans thought she was joking, but she was not. She recently discussed a bad experience she had with an influential casting director, who made a critical comment about her runway work. Although she didn't specify who said it or the exact content of what was said, it seems that the remark was likely about her height. According to Yahoo entertainment, she said "I don’t want to feel bad about myself in this space because I feel really good about the other work that I do."

Keep reading for more on how Bieber coped.

A Step Back And A Step Forward

Even though the criticism shook her confidence, Bieber's career never slowed down. She retired from the runway but her magazine cover count continued to skyrocket, and in 2022 she will be working with Versace, Victoria's Secret, Boss, Miu Miu, and Jimmy Choo. She is also a budding skincare guru and a beauty executive.

Her next big project is announced in the next section, so keep reading.

Rhode Beauty

Bieber recently announced the creation of Rhode Beauty, a skincare line that will feature prices of $30 and less. She began by taking dermatology and skincare courses online, and she began working on Rhode Beauty around the time she left runway modeling. She aims to prioritize natural cosmetics and natural beauty, with an emphasis on keeping skin hydrated and healthy. Bieber also hopes to create solid quality products that can transcend the celebrity beauty market. The company launches in June of 2022, and fans will be waiting.

Mikaela Shiffrin In Bathing Suit 'Should Have Seen Is That Coming'

Posted: 09 Apr 2022 07:24 PM PDT

Olympian Mikaela Shiffrin spent a lot of time with her only brother Taylor last year, especially in the months before his marriage. The siblings goof around and tease each other on social media and during Mikaela's Olympic seasons, but it doesn't take away from the enormous love for each other.

Taylor teased Mikaela about waking up too early for her Slalom run to cinch a third gold medal on one such occasion. Unfortunately, she lost the competition when the officials disqualified her twice. Fortunately, the former champion had a support system, including Taylor, who stuck by her side.

Keep scrolling to see the prank Taylor played on his famous sister.

Riding Till The End

When Mikaela had a lousy run during this year's Olympics, Taylor stuck up for her in the media, especially when things got intense.

"It"s part of the sports. It's what we sign up for and if you're not pushing the limit then you might as well not be racing. So go all out, go guns blazing, and when you do that you've gotta push that edge and sometimes that entails falling."

See Taylor's prank below.

Goofing Around

Mikaela did a single-handed handstand relying on her brother's support, Taylor, who stood guard as the spotter. She showed off her perfect form in a bright yellow one-piece bikini, highlighting her toned legs.

Unbeknownst to the Gold-medalist, he had ulterior motives standing behind her, which she soon found out in the following slide. Taylor let go of her legs, causing the famed skier to tumble in the sand, and she joked about letting her guard down.

"Probably should have seen that coming🥴… (👉👉)"

Even though she fell thanks to Taylor's mischief, it's always all-love between the siblings.

Joining The Wedding Party

Mikaela and Taylor have a close relationship since they're the only sibling the other has. Last year, she joined the bridal party at his wedding and welcomed his wife in with open arms. The group celebrated the pre-wedding events, including the bachelorette together, and Mikaela called it an unforgettable moment.

Many of their celebrations involved bikinis, pools, and beaches, with the bridal party flaunting their toned bodies. Mikaela shared some of her special moments with her one million-plus followers, including shots of her and her sister-in-law Kristiana lounging by a secluded beach.

More Teasers

The resemblance between the two is uncanny, although they joke about not noticing it. In one post, Taylor wrote, "...People say we look alike," and he compared her baby picture to "Jack-Jack" from Jack-Jack Attack.

Dua Lipa In Bikini Reveals 'Olive Oil Ice Cream' Body

Posted: 09 Apr 2022 03:03 PM PDT

According to a now-expired Instagram story share, British pop star Dua Lipa returned to London after a long Spring on tour. Upon her return, the Grammy Award-winning singer shared more pictures of herself in her hometown, including a surprising revelation on her favorite Ice Cream flavor. The 26-year-old wrote, "Olive Oil Ice Cream for the Win!" Who would've thought that such a kitchen staple could become a dessert?

Dua Lipa's New Favorite Taste

Dua's post featured four slides, including a third post showing off her toned body, and it's clear that she's ready for the Summer. She wore a minuscule black string bikini highlighting her slim waist and toned abs underneath her sleeveless green sweater. The pop star also zoomed in on her makeup-free flawless face and tattooed arm. Although her triangle top was invisible in the Twitter shares and the third slide of the Instagram share, she flaunted it in the last picture of her carousel.

Divergent Views On Olive Oil Ice-Cream

Fans in the comment section had divergent views on her choice of Ice Cream flavor. Whereas some of them supported her decision, others vehemently disagreed with no hint of budging. One commenter said, "olive OIL ICECREAM, where can I try this," while another said, "I love you, but that ice cream flavor is just a no❤️."

Others like Normani focused on her body with commentaries like "Go Awf" and "My Beautiful baby." Another notable consensus came from the fans who highlighted Dua's hair color change.

Going Blonde At The Grammys

She wore her hair blonde at the just-concluded Grammy Awards, stealing the show in a sleeked straight style and a black Versace dress. She accessorized her look with heavy gold chains from the Italian brand delivering an aesthetic you couldn't ignore. Last Sunday wasn't the first time Dua wore her hair in a blonde hue, although it was the first in a very long while. Since she started her Future Nostalgia North American tour, the singer wore her natural black hair color.

More Tours Across The World

Dua's arrival in Britain is business-related since she has shows from April 15 in Manchester to May 3 in London. By May 9, the singer would start the European leg of her World Tour and is set to end in November after the fourth leg. Last month, Megan Thee Stallion joined her on tour after the success of their latest single, Sweetest Pie. 

Tickets are still available on Ticketmaster.

Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr Shows Shredded Biceps While Staying Hydrated

Posted: 09 Apr 2022 12:30 PM PDT

Fittest Woman in the World, Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr, showed off her washboard body in her latest Instagram ad share, channeling her inner cowgirl. The athlete wore a classic white tank top tucked into denim shorts and topped the look with a small-brimmed brown suede cowgirl hat.

While her outfit hugged her physique snuggly, it wasn't something else that held fans' attention for a longer time - her bulging biceps! Tia-Clair flexed her muscles as she drank thirstily from a giant water jug. If you want to know how the fittest woman in the world keeps her muscles ripped, keep reading.

She Stays Hydrated

The primary thing on Tia-Clair's list is staying hydrated through her fitness journey. CrossFit exercises are so intense that every athlete loses so much body moisture during their routines. To maintain a balance between the necessary sweat (and consequential moisture loss,), Tia-Clair drinks enough water. It's not only rehydrating but also refreshing, and it's the best after lifting heavy weights because those activities can work up a thirst!

She Works Out

Is there a CrossFit Athlete who doesn't perform intense exercises? Talk less of the current fittest woman in the world! Tia-Clair works her entire body using different gym equipment, from heavy dumbbells for arm curls and extensive overhead lunges to hanging rings for pull-ups, crunch benches for sit-ups, weighted bars for squats, and more.

She also does alternate routines that don't need equipment, like upside-down push-ups, press-ups, and toe-touch squats. It's no child's play to achieve a washboard body, and Tia-Clair Toomey-Orr doesn't PLAY!

She Prioritizes A Calorie Diet

For every three to five pictures on Tia-Clair's Instagram feed, one shows her drinking/mixing one protein shake or the other. She calls them her Essentials and once said, "don't know what I would do without [them.]."

Tia-Clair It became more rampant this year because she worked towards shedding some extra 20 pounds gained during the pre-Olympic season. Tia-Clair applied to join the Australian Bobsled team but unfortunately didn't make the cut, despite being qualified by official standards.

She Sleeps "It’s important to have a break every so often, unwind and reset the mind and body. But one thing that is consistent throughout my day is my routine for bed."

After a long day of lifting weights and performing other CrossFit exercises, Tia-Clair enjoys a good night's rest. Sometimes she uses assisted supplements like Beam to ensure she gets all her hours.

Lori Harvey Engages Her Followers In Swimsuit

Posted: 09 Apr 2022 12:26 PM PDT

The mogul in the making is making waves in the entertainment world

Lori Harvey Is On A Mission

As the child of a celebrity, Lori Harvey could easily skate by in life and remain in comfort. But due to her upbringing and ambition, the model and entrepreneur has more on her plate than many of her fans even know about. She has gained a large following on her social media networks, with Instagram currently at 4.3 million followers.

The young star enjoys great popularity, particularly for her photoshoots, which are captivating and can find Harvey in gorgeous swimsuits from luxury brands or enjoying a night out with her friends and family. No matter where she may be, one thing is clear – Lori Harvey always does it with style!

Fun Fact: Lori Once Held Olympic Aspirations

She can definitely work a runway or cause a sensation on the beach in a bikini. But before that, Lori had a passion for horseback riding that led to her harboring dreams of entering the Olympics as an equestrian.

As a competitive rider for years up through college, it was there that she had an injury that forced her to stop competing and re-direct her life. In the end, her fans are glad that she has chosen anew, and they cannot get enough of her pictorials. In this photo, Harvey keeps it cool and casual in a flesh-toned two-piece bikini as she showers in a tropical destination.

Lori Is Not The Typical Model

Lori is all about breaking the mold and setting new standards, and when it comes to modeling, she is paving the way for women in the industry by not fitting into the old system. At only 5’4”, many told Harvey that she did not have the height required to be in the industry, but years later, she has proved them wrong and accepts that she is not what the fashion world typically sees or expects.

Through it all, she remains a big supporter of working in the fashion world and speaking out for women of color. Harvey has noted on several occasions the lack of Black women on the runways internationally, and she is doing everything in her power to bring change to the industry.

Jordan Finally Hit The Red Carpet As A Couple

Sure, her fans have seen her out and about with the actor for over a year now, but whether they are vacationing on a beach in swimsuits and cocktails or dressed up for an awards show, the two always remain pretty mum about their relationship. But this year, the pair made their official red carpet debut at the Oscars after-party, and they were a vision. So, for her fans (and his!), it was definitely worth the wait!
