Here is the photo of Vanessa Hudgens’ cover for the May issue of Self Magazine.
She recently purchased her own home, and is having interior designer Kenneth Brown decorating it with her. He is also doing her boyfriend Zac Efron’s home as well.
Here are a few highlights from the interview:
“I keep a Taser in my purse for self-defense,” Vanessa said. “I’m moving into a house by myself, and it’s scary.”
She talked about not wearing makeup: “Sometimes I feel prettier without makeup. You take it off and you’re like, Oh, there I am! But red lips make me feel sexy . . . It brings out the vixen in you.”
Taylor Swift was on the cover of the magazine’s March 2009 issue.
Vanessa is currently in New York City to watch her boy Zac, as he is hosting Saturday Night Live TONIGHT @ 11:30PM ET/PT on NBC.
Lindsay looking fabulous. The wonders of Photoshopping are aptly displayed here aren’t they?
In other news on Linds…
She’s back on the prowl as TMZ is reporting that SaMan changed the locks on her home over the weekend, their photographers took photos of the locksmith, and Lindsay herself just gave this statement to E! News:
Lindsay tells E! News that she has confirmed that she has split up with SaMan. For those of you who follow her Twittering, you’ll most likely know about how upset she was! Here is her brief little statement:
“We are taking a brief break so I can focus on myself.”
Wonder if what went down on the weekend has anything to do with this little time-out…
Lindsay was not invited to the launching of SaMan’s sister, Charlotte Ronson’s new fashion line with JC Penney over the weekend. Lindsay had to be escorted out of the building by security as SaMan left instructions she was not to be let in.
Sources told OK Magazine Linds even knew she wasn’t supposed to go, but tried anyways to get in and ended up being “restrained from coming in by five security guards.”

Taylor Swift has partnered up with Wal-Mart’s Jone’s Apparel Group’s L.E.I. brand to be the face of their spring and fall ad campaign.
L.E.I. executives also came up with a plan to help Taylor create a small collection of sundresses after she expressed an interest and she will have a one-season collection of colorful cotton spring dresses that will be called L.E.I. Sundresses by Taylor Swift. They’ll be shipping exclusively to Wal-Mart stores on Feb. 1, just in time for spring, and they’ll cost $14.00 each.
What a great price.
Group chief executive officer, Jack Gross, said they chose Taylor because she is “someone with a good reputation and someone who we didn’t have to be afraid of getting any sort of bad press.” He added, “She is so famous, but really so grounded. We liked her immediately.”
When it came to designing the dresses, Taylor said,
“We had so many ideas to work from, and it came down to creating dresses that I would wear. If I couldn’t see myself wearing them, I wasn’t interested in making them” and that she found the price appealing because “It was very important for me to create cute, affordable dresses. Especially in these hard times, making expensive dresses just doesn’t make any sense. I go to Wal-Mart all the time. The one in my hometown of Hendersonville, Tenn., is open 24 hours, so I go there a lot to buy DVDs and stuff like that” because her PR person told her to.
It was announced that Leona Lewis would be coming out with an autobiography even though she is only 23, and now the buzz is that she will be designing a vegan clothing line and a perfume.
Says an insider:
“Leona has had a lot of approaches about launching her own perfume, but she wanted to make totally sure she would be working with an ethical company. She has had a big hand in helping to create the fragrance and the design of the bottle and now she can’t wait to see it in the shops.”
Take a peek at Jennifer Lopez’s new fragrance ad for Sunkissed Glow. It was photographed by Peter Lindbergh on the island Islamorada in Florida.
“Sunkissed Glow is a flowery, fruity and sensual scent with notes of orange blossom, waterlilies and passion flowers. It also has the scent of ember, musk and cashmerewood.”
The fragrance goes on sale at European stores in February 2009. So far, no U.S. release date.
Fergie made a visit to the New York City showroom of her new shoe brands – Fergie and Fergalicious this past Wednesday to plan their launch. She had previously unveiled her shoe collection with Brown Shoe in Las Vegas at the WSA Show.
Her styles range from retro-looking colorful platforms, stylish gladiators, exotic strappy sandals, and sporty sneakers. Her bag collection with Kipling has been doing fairly well and the fashion diva has put her creativity to work yet again with the designs and colours of her fashion footwear.
Fergie had this to say:
“I have always loved fashion because it’s a great way to express your mood. And I’m definitely a shoe lover. The right pair of shoes can change the feel of an outfit, and even change how a woman feels about herself. A woman can wear confidence on her feet with a high stiletto, or slip into weekend comfort with a soft ballet flat.”
Her two footwear brands for Brown Shoes will make their debut in stores February 2009.
