It’s finally set it stone! The contracts have been signed and the auditions have begun. Paula Abdul will join Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Cheryl Cole on the judge’s panel for the US version of Cowell’s ‘X-Factor’. I know what you’re thinking. Really? Another reality singing competition. We have ‘American Idol’. We have ‘The Voice’. We have (or maybe had, I’m not sure) ‘Nashville Star’. Do we really need another one? Probably not, but we have one and I’ll be watching. I love Simon and I love Paula. Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez are doing a great job on Idol, but Simon and Paula have such great chemistry. Here at the ‘X-Factor’ auditions, Paula looks lovely. I’ve always been a big fan and I’m excited to see her on television again.

I like Misha Barton, but my favorite alum from ‘The O.C.’ is definitely Rachel Bilson. If you haven’t seen her in Zack Braff’s ‘The Last Kiss’ you should do so. Immediately. The girl is a special kind of sexy. Here at the Antibes, Chanel, Fashion Show, Rachel proves you don’t have to be dressed in something low cut or skin tight to be sexy. She has a sort of classic, exotic beauty that is definitely appealing even when the only real skin she’s showing is her legs. And come on – those are some gorgeous legs. Rachel always plays to her strengths and this relatively demure ensemble is no exception. Love her.

I really, really miss Julianna Hough on ‘Dancing with the Stars’. She’s such a talented lady, but it is nice to see her branching out into other areas. Have you see ‘Burlesque’? Hough did a fantastic job as Georgia. If you haven’t seen it and want to watch a light hearted, fun movie with lots of women in skimpy costumes, I would recommend checking it out. It’s no masterpiece, but I liked it. And Christina Aguilera hasn’t looked as sexy as she did in that movie in quite some time. Here on Miami Beach, Julianna shows us what I like most about her (no, not her body although that is fantastic). I love Julianne because she’s not afraid to be a girl. She embraces the feminine. Her pink ruffled bikini couldn’t possibly be more girlie and it works for her. Love it and I love her.

Now here we go with the Jessica Simpson stuff. I don’t think anyone should be hating on this woman for her body type. I think she’s absolutely gorgeous. I don’t care much for her public persona, but that doesn’t really make her any less attractive – at least not to me anyway. I’ve never been a big fan of the whole dumb blond movement, but anyone who thinks Jessica as dumb as her reality show would have you believe likely doesn’t pay much attention to the Hollywood hype machine. Blond bimbos with big boobs and no brains sell. Sadly. With that said, I kind of like Jessica for trying to step away from that image. I know someone is going to say something about Jessica looking a little round in these pictures taken in Beverly Hills but who cares. Look at those legs? Gorgeous. The only think I can see in these pictures that I don’t like is those shoes. Horrid, but aside from that, Jessica looks awesome.

I sometimes forget how absolutely stunning Ciara is. This woman is a beauty but for some reason, she always slips to the back of my mind. I think the thing I like most about her is the fact that she doesn’t have to be wearing some sort of elaborate get-up to look fabulous. She can hit the street in a simple t-shirt style dress and make it look glamorous. Out to dinner at Phillipe restaurant on Melrose, Ciara doesn’t look like she’s spent three hours getting ready. She looks like she got hungry, threw something on and headed out to eat. She makes beauty look easy. Am I jealous? Yes. Yes I am. If I wanted to look that good it would take a whole lot more than three hours and the help of skilled professionals. Love Ciara. Gorgeous girl.

I just, not even two minutes ago, wrote a post about Kim Kardashian on a beach in Mexico. I stated that I’m not really her biggest fan but admitted I think she’s one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. Now I’m writing this post about Kim out shopping in Beverly Hills at Harmes Paris and I think it’s a great contrast to the other post. Why? Because I think these pictures show why I’m not really Kim K’s biggest fan. There is just something so ‘diva’ about her. Mariah Carey is a diva. Madonna is a diva. Aretha Franklin is a diva. Diana Ross is a diva. I could go on, but here’s the point I want to make. I’m okay with those women being diva’s because they’ve worked hard and earned it. Kim Kardashian has not. She turned her reality show celebrity (and the whole sex tape thing) into a career and I admire that, but she has not earned the diva title. I could be wrong. The pictures aren’t really all that bad. She looks hot as hell and that’s fine, but there’s just this attitude in them. Am I reading too much into it? More than likely yes. If I am, my sincerest apologies to Kim.
