Angelina Jolie thrown out for being too famous



Everything has its own benefits and detriments, including in being famous. St. John, American crafters of lavish formal attires, has recently dropped out thedeal between their company and Angelina Jolie because the extraordinarily famous movie star was said to be “overshadowing the brand.”

“She overshadowed the brand,” he said. “We wanted to make a clean break from actresses and steer away from blondes and cleanse the palette,” said Glenn McMahon, the manufacturer’s chief executive officer.

By that decision, Angelina Jolie will be replaced by a pale-toned skin supermodel, Karen Olsen. She is also known as the wife of White Stripes singer Jack White, standing for the path McMahon wishes to watch St. John preceded.

JENNIFER LOPEZ TAKES HER BABIES IN THE RECORDING STUDIO


JENNIFER Lopez hates being away from her babies! The singer/actress says she often takes twins Max and Emme — who she gave birth to in Feb. 2008 — with her to the studio while she records her album Love? — which is out later this year. “Sometimes we have them in the studio, sometimes I’m just like, ‘Let me go in really quick and get back home really quick,’ but it’s always with them in mind,” Lopez said. Jennifer, recently revealed that she doesn’t have time to hit the gym now that she’s mom — instead, the star relies on her high-powered dance routines to help her keep in shape. “It’s the dancing, I don’t have time to work out with those two little munchkins at home,” Lopez told Fox News in December last year. “I get a lot of my inspirations from old musicals, I like to infuse it. I grew up in the whole hip-hop era, so I like to incorporate that, it’s kind of a mix which you’ll see.” The Jenny From The Block hitmaker said son Max is “difficult” like his dad, Marc Anthony. “He’s just like Marc — difficult … He takes after his father,” Jennifer said. “I’ve got to get ready out here, they don’t let me get ready in there,” Lopez joked. “He’s got his dad’s voice, a big voice.”

Tiger Woods-AT&T ends sponsorship deal


AT&T announced on Thursday that it is to end its sponsorship deal with scandal-tainted golfer Tiger Woods. "We are ending our sponsorship agreement with Tiger Woods and wish him well in the future," the company said in a statement. Accenture and Gillette have already pulled out of sponsorship deals with Woods after he admitted to "infidelity" to his wife. Under the sponsorship deal, AT&T's logo appeared on the golfer's bag while the company has said it will continue to host the AT&T National PGA event in July. Woods, one of the world's most famous sportspersons, announced earlier this month that he was taking an indefinite break from professional golf to "repair the damage" caused by his marital infidelity. Once seen as a squeaky clean athletic role model, Woods, 33, has been tainted by allegations of serial infidelities with as many as 10 women around the US including various waitresses, nightclub hostesses and porn stars. Woods has had a phenomenal career, earning more than $1 billion in his rapid 13-year rise, commanding huge fees for sports endorsements and revolutionizing sports marketing.
