Major confession here, folks – I was a huge Atomic Kitten fan for a time in my late teens and then I just sort of lost track of them. I always loved Jenny Frost in the group although I wasn’t a big fan of her in her first group, Precious. Kind of weird how that works. Now that Atomic Kitten will be touring again, I feel like I need to get out their old album and give it a listen. I have to admit that looking at these photos of Jenny really brings back some fond memories. She’s so pretty and seems so relaxed in front of the camera. Funny story – I believed all of the members of Atomic Kitten were transexual for several years before learning I had been misinformed. I have no idea how many people I told. Oops. For the record, they are all natural born women to the best of my knowledge. The more you know.

I’ve made it pretty clear that I’m not a big fan of reality stars. I like Kim Kardashian’s style but I don’t like her. Kendall Jenner is a bit different to me for some reason. I think she’s just a normal teenage girl, famous family aside, and she’s having a little fun playing with the attention she gets. I don’t know I would behave much differently if I were her. Her family is famous. To her, fame and maybe even fame whoring is just a normal part of life. What I like about Kendall most though is that when she isn’t posing for a photographer, she actually looks like she’s pretty normal. These pictures of Kendall in Malibu could be of any girl her age at the beach. She’s having fun and wearing a fairly age-appropriate bikini complete with a fun, ocean themed print. I think these pics are great. I hope she sticks with this more relaxed attitude about fame and doesn’t become too attention-whorey. That would be a shame, although it wouldn’t entirely be unexpected.

It’s been quite a number of years since I was a teenager but I still clearly recall being a teenage girl with a giant crush on Carmen Electra who wasn’t afraid to tell everyone all about it. The internet was still a fairly new fangled thing to me and I had just gotten my very first printer. I spent hours printing off various photos of Carmen, carefully cutting them out and taping them all over my binders for school. I’m 30 now and must’ve been about fourteen when my Carmen fixation began. Today I am just as fixated on her as ever and these photos are a great example of why. The woman is absolutely gorgeous. While I’m sure she’s had a little help maintaining her good looks, I can’t argue with the result. I love Carmen and I adore these photos.

Every time I see photos like these ones of Ilary Blasi in Miami, I get a certain song stuck in my head. I’m sure you know the one I mean. “She wore an itsy bitsy, teeny weeny, yellow polka dot bikini”. Yup. That’s the one. Many apologies if that song is now stuck in your head all day. Anyway, the bikini may not be yellow but it is certainly itsy bitsy and polka dotted so I think my point stands. Annoying song or not, I love these photos. Ilary looks absolutely incredible, as she always does, and she seems to be having a pretty relaxing day. I have to admit that as I sit here listening to the rain come down outside my window, wrapped up in a blanket (in June!), I am feeling a little bit of location envy. Okay, I confess – a lot of location envy. I guess I’ll have to live vicariously through Ilary.

The problem with being a Disney star or a Nickelodeon star is pretty obvious. Your fans don’t want you to grow up. They want you to stay the same. What people don’t realize is that just doesn’t happen. People grow and mature. They change. If stars like Selena Gomez want long lasting careers they have to figure out how to make the transition into more mature projects as seamlessly as possible. The problem with that? Once you’re pegged with the “teen star” label, more mature audiences aren’t always willing to accept you. Now, with all that said, I don’t think that’s going to be a huge problem for Selena Gomez and these photos from Malibu are a great example of why. She doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to grow up too fast. She still has the playful, youthful vibe even though she’s beginning to grow into a more mature young lady. She isn’t going the Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus route and trying to be an ultra sexy bombshell to attract older audiences. I think Selena has a decent chance of having a long career as long as she keeps making smart choices.

I have to apologize to Teen Bride Courtney Stodden. I have been a little judgmental and that isn’t fair. That also makes me a bit of a hypocrite. While I don’t understand her relationship and I certainly don’t understand her mother’s decision to sign off on the whole thing, it is life and she can do whatever she wants with it. I’m not a big fan of the super revealing clothes. She is, after all, a teenager but how can I applaud Rihanna for being gutsy with her fashion choices and give Courtney a hard time for being seen shopping in something I could easily see Rihanna in. Sure Rihanna is an adult but Courtney isn’t exactly a child. My first instinct when looking at these pictures of Courtney in LA was to write a negative post but instead I’m just going to wish Courtney all the best and hope she finds whatever it is that she’s looking for out of life.
