Hulk Hogan's daughter Brooke Hogan posed nude for animal rights charity PETA's 'Women In Cages' campaign.
The wrestling hero was left shamefaced after viewing the black and white pictures showing the 23-year-old Hogan Knows Best star naked and behind bars, at an exhibition, the Sun reported.
Hulk, real name Terry Gene Bollea, light-heartedly tried to spare his daughter's blushes by using his hands to cover the revealing portraits.
The pictures are a part of PETA's exhibition, held at Cafeina Lounge, Miami, Florida.
Cindy Crawford dresses in leather, latex for dominatrix-inspired photoshoot
Cindy Crawford continues to defy age and gravity as she flaunts her flawless figure in a cutaway leather dress for a dominatrix-inspired photoshoot for Harper's Bazaar Singapore.
Showcasing her trademark mole with flashy red lipstick, the 45-year old still looks at the top of the game despite her years in the industry, the Daily Mail reported.
The image, shot in Los Angeles in July, is just one of the two covers for the September edition -- one of the magazine industry's most important month.
Crawford was just 16 when she started her career, but despite three decades of working, she shows no signs of slowing down.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley says she has 'mood lips'
Model and actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has revealed that her gorgeous lips "have a life of their own" and often get her into trouble because people can tell her mood just by looking at them.
"They're funny, because they change colour with my mood. They have a life of their own and they get me into trouble," the Mirror quoted her as saying.
"You know mood rings? I've got mood lips. They get really, really red when I'm angry and passionate, and then pale when I'm miserable or tired."
"But I suppose it's the same for most people," she added.
Lady Gaga to design fashion range with 'even edgier' sister?
Lady Gaga is reportedly set to launch a fashion range that she is said to have designed with her "even edgier" younger sister.
Gaga, 25, is teaming up with her sister Natali Germanotta, 19, who is a fledgling fashion designer and has just completed her first year studying fashion at the Parsons: The New School for Design, in New York.
According to Grazia Magazine, despite friends saying Natali is "even edgier" than Lady Gaga, the collection will be "relatively normal and wearable".
"Gaga came up with the idea of remodelling the styles of classic icons from the past, for example Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly and Katharine Hepburn," the Daily Mail quoted a source as saying.
"Natali loved the idea and she's coming up with a slew of design options but, of course, everything will have their own iconic twist on it," the source said.
The duo are rumoured to feature a rubber version of Marilyn Monroe's white halter neck dress from Some Like It Hot and the ironic Audrey Hepburn shift, redesigned with a plunging neckline.
Although there has not been any official confirmation of the partnership, yet Gaga's close friend and stylist Nicola Formichetti has hinted at the upcoming project on Twitter, saying Germanotta is set to become "a big player" in the fashion world.
Confidence is the only key to beauty, says Emma Stone
Emma Stone has revealed that the key to beauty is confidence.
According to YouBeauty.com, Stone's new perspective on the importance of inner beauty has been influenced by her role of a determined writer, Skeeter Phelan, in The Help.
"Confidence is the only key," People Magazine quoted her as saying.
"I know a lot of people who aren't traditionally 'beautiful' -- not symmetrical or perfect-bodied or perfect-skinned."
"But none of that matters because all that shines through is their confidence, humour and comfort with themselves."
"I can't think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself," she added.
Candice Swanepoel narrowly avoids wardrobe malfunction!
Victoria's Secret model Candice Swanepoel escaped a major wardrobe malfunction recently by quickly holding her cleavage tight to keep it from falling out of her skimpy bikini top during a photoshoot.
The curvy blonde adjusted her ample assets as they poured out of a neon green bikini top on Sunday on a beach in St Barts, the South of France, but struggled to contain them, reports the Daily Mail.
The top was paired with multi-coloured bikini bottoms, as the 22-year-old South African beauty showed off her incredible figure in the tiny two-piece.
Candice is in France shooting a new campaign for the lingerie giant, which will feature her in a series of different swimsuits.
She appeared to be having fun with the shoot, as she posed messing about in the water and pretending to throw some seaweed for one humorous shot.
Candice is currently one of the world's most successful models, earning an estimated $3 million in the past 12 months.
Cheryl's fitness regime included lemon purges, gym at 5 am, 20 cigarettes a day
Cheryl Cole is said to have been so insecure about her looks and weight that she would go on regular purges to stay slim.
A friend of Cheryl's former bodyguard Craig Balkam said the 28-year-old would consume nothing but lemon juice, smoke "at least 20 Marlboro a day", and head down to the gym at 5 am to avoid photographers.
"She did these lemon cleanses where she wouldn't consume anything except lemon juice and water with a dash of cayenne pepper and maple syrup," the Daily Mail quoted the friend as telling the Sunday Mirror.
"She became a fan of the Tracey Anderson gym in Studio City in LA."
"Cheryl worked out so hard she ended up getting sore legs," he stated.
He added how she'd continue her workouts in her hotel rooms with fitness videos and was so insecure about her figure that she'd always wear high heels -- despite being left with sore feet.

"This all came as a bolt from the blue," the Daily Mail quoted a source close to the model as saying.
"Everyone was shocked because they thought Danielle and Becca were going to be together for years."
"Becca pretty much helped Danielle's career take off and she recently got her a role in the stage version of Calendar Girls."
"But Danielle made it clear that she wanted to get some serious acting roles and thought that she could secure these new parts with a more luvvie type of agency."
"It will be interesting to see quite what acting work Danielle will get," the source added.

Salma Hayek feels plastic surgery is 'not beautiful'
Mexican film actress Salma Hayek has said that every woman has the right to preserve her youth, just not through plastic surgery.
In the September issue of Allure, Hayek, 44, says she understands the desire of women to stop the aging process, but she said beauty is something to be brought out and enhanced, not manufactured by a doctor.
"I believe that every woman is entitled to fight to preserve her youth," People Magazine quoted her as saying.
Hayek expressed her aversion for plastic surgery by calling it the "uniform of a generation" and "not beautiful".
"It's like the uniform of a generation. And it's not necessarily beautiful. It's not wrinkled-looking, but it's not beautiful," she said.
