Amber Rose has revealed that she spent days crying, after her nude pictures leaked online cost her a business deal.

The X-rated photos, which show Rose fully nude and touching herself, were used in a MediaTakeOut.com story earlier this week, that claimed she had sexted the images to Nicki Minaj's boyfriend.

"The company that I was working with no longer wants to work with me because of these pics and that prevents me from getting money to take care of my family," Rose complained on Twitter on Wednesday.

Rose, who later clarified that she wasn't dropped by her modelling agency, explained that the pictures were more than two years old and had been "just sitting in my computer".

"I trusted someone that worked 4 me and allowed them to use my laptop a million times," the beauty said.

"I caught this person sending my pics to themselves and I fired this person immediately."

And Rose, who is still in a relationship with rapper Wiz Khalifa admitted she knew the pictures, unfortunately, would eventually make their way onto the web, reports the New York Daily News.

"Wiz and I and both of our families have known about this for 2 months now," she said.

"We tried to prepare ourselves for this day," she added.

Kim Kardashian has hired a couple of personal trainers to shed her weight ahead of her much-hyped wedding with basketball player Kris Humphries.

The 30-year-old, who weighs 125lbs, revealed that she wants to lose 15lbs before her big day.

Her new trainers will be Jennifer Lopez's coach Gunnar Peterson and Tracy Anderson, who is famous for her work with Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow.

However, Anderson, who sometimes trains her clients twice in one day, assured that despite the possible tone-down she will make sure that the socialite does not lose her 'amazing curves'.

"We don't want to take away Kim's amazing curves, so we just do specific movements to tighten the skin and to pull the muscles tight against the bone," the Daily Mail quoted her as telling Life and Style Magazine.

Mad Men star Christina Hendricks has opened up about her workout regime.

Hendricks works out three times a week with actor husband Geoffrey Arend and their personal trainer.

"It's amazing how quick an hour can go by when you work out with someone you love," the Daily Mail quoted Hendricks as saying.

She does interval training on the treadmill (running very fast, then slowing down).

She is also a fan of the Bosu balance trainer -- an inflatable ball that's flat on one side and improves strength and balance when you do exercises on its unstable surface.

"I get bored on the treadmill, but I'm really into the Bosu ball -- I do weights and squats on it," she revealed.

Actress Megan Fox thinks treating herself on the weekend and having a healthy diet in the week is the secret to her stunning figure.

The Transformers star, who is often voted one of the world's most sexiest women, recently gained 4lbs and sources say she's happier than ever because she's got some of her curves back.

"Megan's relaxed her strict diet and has been treating herself at the weekends. On weekdays she sticks to protein with salad and veg," Contactmusic quoted a source as telling Now Magazine.

As well as following a healthy diet, Fox also works out with husband Brian Austin Greene.

"He's always worked out -- and he got Meg into it. She does cardio and weights twice weekly but focuses on yoga and pilates, which she loves," the source added.

"I've been drinking it since I was 14, and when I've got a long day ahead of me, it's the one thing I can't live without," the Daily Mail quoted her as telling Australia's Cosmopolitan Magazine.

Kerr also preaches the benefits of coconut oil, which is claimed to benefit everything from skin and hair to weightloss.

Victoria Beckham has launched a new range of ultra-feminine dresses drawing inspiration from edgy teenage cartoon character 'Emily the Strange'.

Her new range, called 'Victoria by Victoria Beckham' focuses on a looser silhouette, and characterises the alter ego of her super-glamorous main line customer.

"These are the kind of dresses I've been searching for," the Telegraph quoted Victoria as telling Women's Wear Daily Magazine.

"The perfect little summer dress, something that was fun, something that was girly, something that was easy to wear, something that would take you from day through the night," the former Spice Girl member stated.

She aims to reach a broader audience with this range, which not only features significantly lower price points than her main line, with dresses set to retail primarily around the 350-560 pounds mark, but also caters to women not possessed of a size 6 figure.

"I'm opening these designs to women and girls of all different shapes and sizes, people who maybe want something less tight and clingy and structured," Posh said.

"It also makes it more comfortable for during the day. You can wear them with a pair of flats or a pair of heels and they look great," she added.

Looks like Geri Halliwell has been inspired by her former Spice Girls bandmate Victoria Beckham in fashion as she has decided to launch her own range of evening dresses.

While Beckham's self-titled brand has already won the approval of the fashion industry, Halliwell has decided to create a range of dresses for British high street store Next, for release later this year.

"I've been sketching everything myself. I'm thrilled with the results," Contactmusic quoted Halliwell as telling the Sunday Mirror.

"The dresses are not stupidly expensive but they are elegant and beautiful," she added.

We're losing track of what a real face is like: Julianne Moore

Julianne Moore has revealed she fears plastic surgery and facial touch-ups have become so common that people are losing track of what a real face is like.

The 50-year-old actress, famous for her radiant skin and youthful looks, however, insisted that she would not be going under the knife or shooting up Botox anytime soon.

But she told Health Magazine that she's alarmed that so many celebrities do.

"Even with the laser stuff, the skin becomes so shiny. It's like nothing sticks to it...and it doesn't have a normal patina," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

"It's hard to age. Let people do what they want to do, but I do think that a new normal sometimes starts to exist where the cosmetic surgery itself starts to look normal, and we lose track of what a real face is like," she added.

It has emerged that Blake Lively is set to become the brand ambassador for British designer Stella McCartney.

A source has revealed that McCartney has said that Lively, who is an animal lover like her boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio, would be the perfect brand ambassador for her company in America.

"Like Leonardo, Blake is an animal lover and believes in cruelty-free fashion so when she met Stella at the Met Ball last month she found they shared many of the same ideals," the Daily Mail quoted the source as saying.

"Stella thinks Blake would be the perfect brand ambassador for her company in America," the source added.
