‘Top Model’ Lisa D’Amato Recovering From Facial Injuries Following ‘Freak Accident’


Lisa D'Amato is not ready for her close-up – but she’s confident that she will be soon!
The 32-year-old model, who was the winner of the all-star edition of “America’s Next Top Model,” is recovering from multiple facial injuries, including a broken nose and lacerations in her forehead, chin, and lips. The wounds were the result of a tumble she took in a Colorado hotel after wrapping the indie flick “Cowboys and Indians.”
"We were just kind of monkeying around," shetold People magazine, explaining that she was doing a handstand against a crew member when she fell. The other person then landed on top of her, injuring her further. "It was a totally freak accident,” she added. “It wasn't like we were doing back flips off the balcony."

D'Amato hasn’t exactly been hiding away since the accident, for which she was treated by a plastic surgeon and expects to be healed in a month. Instead, she’s been sharing photos of her recovery process with her Twitter followers… and there’s no sugarcoating going on. The photos are very graphic – consider this your warning – prompting her to post further updates apologizing for scaring her fans and assuring them that she will be “good as new” in no time.

Despite the situation and its impact on her livelihood, the reality TV star has maintained a great attitude and is even cracking jokes. For the first photo she tweeted of her bruised swollen face after being worked on by a plastic surgeon, she wrote, “Who wants to hang out?” And bad nose jokes? She’s full of them. “Nobody NOSE the trouble I’ve seen,” she tweeted.

As for sharing the photos publicly, she noted, “My life is an open book. I guess I'm a bit of a tomboy – not vanity obsessed so I'm not too concerned about showing the ugly part of life.”
What refreshing words from someone in her profession. We hope her road to recovery is a quick one.

Hot Athlete Romance Alert: Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn!


Hot Athlete Romance Alert: Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn!


Say it ain’t so, Lindsey!
In what can only be acknowledged as one of the more questionable public dating choices in recent years, U.S. Women’s skiing Olympic gold medalist and multi World Cup champ Lindsey Vonn, 28, is reportedly dating golf superstar Tiger Woods, 37.
Woods, of course, is almost as well known for his philandering ways nowadays as his skills on the golf course, following the ugly end to his relationship with Elin Nordegren in 2010. The resemblance between Vonn and Nordegen is apparent – both are beautiful blondes with athletic builds.
Although neither of them nor their reps have confirmed the relationship, a source close to the skiing star confirmed to omg! that the pair are definitely together. omg!’s source also says that after her divorce from former ski coach, Thomas Vonn, was finalized in early January, she relocated from the ski town she has spent most of her time in recent years (mostly Park City, Utah, where she owns a home) to L.A., because she could keep a lower profile and people don’t recognize her as much.
HollywoodLife.com first reported the pairing two days ago. “They met through the ski community, because Tiger is an active skier,” a source close to Vonn revealed to the site. “Lindsey has been teaching Tiger’s kids Sam and Charlie how to ski.” The site claims that the couple has rendezvoused in both Austria in mid-January and in the Caribbean island of Antigua.

Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen Complete 22,000-Square-Foot Mansion … and It’s Got a Moat!


Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen Complete 22,000-Square-Foot Mansion … and It’s Got a Moat!

If you were already envious of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen, with their ridiculous good looks, successful and very fun-sounding careers (NFL player! Supermodel!), cute kids, and big bank accounts, well, here’s the latest thing that will surely annoy you: The dynamic duo is about to move into a 22,000-square-foot mansion that cost a reported $20 million.
And not to worry, Bundchen, 32, and Brady, 35, won’t have to deal with a single item in the home – from paint color to closet size – that they didn’t personally choose themselves since they had the pad built from the ground up after purchasing the land (located in the posh L.A. enclave of Brentwood) more than three years ago.
Now, it’s time to move in. Not surprisingly, the couple hasn’t asked members of the media over for cake and coffee yet, so no one’s gotten any pics inside of the compound. But as for the outside, there’s a resort-style pool and custom-built gigantic playground. (The two are parents to son Benjamin, 3, and 8-week-old daughter Vivian together, and Brady is dad to 5-year-old John with his exBridget Moynahan). And then there’s the amenity for the couple who has everything: a moat. Yes, really.

Kate Upton’s Super Bowl Ad: Deets on the Real Commercial


Kate Upton’s Super Bowl Ad: Deets on the Real Commercial


That Kate Upton Mercedes-Benz video you saw earlier this week? Yeah, that’s not the luxury car company’s big Super Bowl ad. But thanks for playing.
omg! was able to screen the real commercial Thursday evening in New York and can promise that the only things that controversial viral video has in common with the ad are the pretty lady and the handsome cars.
The commercial you’ll see during the big game on February 3rd features the Sports IllustratedSwimsuit Edition cover girl all dolled up on a red carpet, not wearing bootie shorts and washing a car. Tired of posing alone, she grabs a schlub (played by actor Sebastian Beacon) who’s just rolled up in a Mercedes-Benz CLA. But she’s not the only celebrity in the clip.
The schlub takes over the dance floor with Usher before leaving with Upton and a car full of models, all while making a deal with the devil. Now, who’s playing that devil, we’re not entirely sure – they wouldn’t even show us. All we know is that he’s a two-time Oscar nominee and has a deep, mature voice. Who do you think it could be? Please, help us out and put your guesses in the comments!
While we’re pretty excited to see the final version and solve this mystery when the commercial debuts on Facebook on January 30th, the viral video featuring the 20-year-old stunner washing a car in slow motion – which has more than 4 million views on YouTube already – continues to draw chatter. Many (presumably straight men) are applauding it and others are accusing the car company of going against brand and Upton of being too sexy.
We’ll be curious to hear what you think when you see the final commercial. But, in the meantime, let us know who you think might be playing that deal-making devil!

Amanda Seyfried: ‘Mean Girls’ Was My ‘Best Work’


Amanda Seyfried: ‘Mean Girls’ Was My ‘Best Work’


Playing a porn star might be intimidating for some actresses, but not Amanda Seyfried!
The 27-year-old, who stars as Linda Lovelace in the new biopic "Lovelace," says that for her, the nudity and sex scenes required in her latest film weren't a problem at all.
"Nudity: whatever! Sex: we all do it. There's a time and a place to be naked," Seyfried reveals in a new interview with Indiewire. "There's no part in this movie that makes me think, 'Oh, wow, she's naked.' She's a porn star! We simulated some scenes but there's no graphic content in this movie, at all. I mean the graphic stuff is when [Lovelace's husband and manager Chuck Traynor, played by Peter Sarsgaard is] raping me on my wedding night. You see my skirt go up over my head when I'm being gang raped, but it's like so perfectly done."
Seyfried says that her leading man, Sarsgaard, shared her laid-back attitude about the adult scenes in the film.
"Both of us are not shy about our private parts. We also weren't walking around with our genitals out; our bottom half genitals. That might have been a little strange for me. I don't really have any interest in people seeing my vagina. It's just a personal thing. I don't mind seeing other people's vaginas," Seyfried explains. "I think it's just our mutual understanding of we needed to be naked a lot of points in the movie and it wasn't a big deal. It's like a costume."

AnnaLynne McCord: I'm Not Ready to Marry Dominic Purcell Yet
AnnaLynne McCord is always a bridesmaid, never a bride -- and that's exactly how she likes it! While promoting the first-ever Catdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on Jan. 19, the 90210actress explained why she's in no rush to wed her on-again boyfriend Dominic Purcell.
"It's like 2012 was the year for engagements," McCord laughed. "My two sisters got engaged, [my costar] Shenae Grimes got engaged. But I am very happy in my long-term, committed boyfriend-girlfriend relationship."

McCord, 25, doesn't predict Purcell, 42, will pop the question "in the near future," she told Us Weekly. "I am not getting married!"
She may not have a wedding in the works, but McCord is in it for the long haul with the Prison Break actor. "I have a lot of respect for him," she raved of Purcell, who has four children with ex-wifeRebecca Williamson. "He's a really wonderful man."

Taylor Swift’s Style Transformation: From Precious Feline Fashions to Va-Va-Voom Sexy!


Taylor Swift’s Style Transformation: From Precious Feline Fashions to Va-Va-Voom Sexy!


Taylor Swift knows how to bring the glam on the red carpet, but, Thursday night, she brought the sexy too!
The country singer – who is single and, from the looks of it, ready to mingle – wore one of her sexiest looks to date to the 40 Principales Awards in Madrid on Thursday.
The bold white beaded Kaufman Franco minidress featured a cleavage-exposing opening on the front that ran from neck to waist. Wisely, a sheer layer of fabric on the front prevented the 22-year-old superstar from having any wardrobe malfunctions.
And the sexy didn’t stop there. Swift – who will apparently never ever ever ever get back together with Harry Styles, according to this new interview – stood tall in Christian Louboutin metallic stiletto sandals. Although she picked up the International Artist Award, her long legs could have won a separate prize altogether. Wow!
Swift has been sporting sexier ensembles since she and the One Direction singer went their separate ways early this year. One of them – dubbed her “revenge look” – was just a few days after their split when she dazzled at the People’s Choice Awards. That dress selection – another white hot frock – certainly was a cleavage enhancer as well, but it was floor length, with a train, and kept her mostly covered.

Ryan Seacrest

New 'do, Ryan? Michelle Obama has apparently served as inspiration for the media mogul. “With all this talk about bangs, we thought someone was left out - fab or drab?!” staffers at his morning radio show "On Air With Ryan Seacrest" wrote on his Instagram page alongside this pic. Sorry to say, it's a bit much! (1/23/2013)

Lance Armstrong Sued Over Book, Ex Sheryl Crow Is All Smiles


The Lance Armstrong saga continues.
One week after the disgraced seven-time winner of the Tour de France confessed to using performance-enhancing drugs in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, two readers of his books have filed a class-action lawsuit in federal court against Armstrong and his book publishers, claiming that they sold fiction as fact in his 2000 memoir It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life and its 2003 follow-up Every Second Counts.
