Miranda Kerr - Met and Marchesa


She had a lot of competition but Miranda Kerr was one of the stunners of the night, attending the Met Costume Institute Gala, in her flirty Marchesa mini dress.

Adding some extra length to her model legs were some Nicholas Kirkwood platforms; and sparkling ice from Harry Winston completed her look.

The dress is from Marchesa's Fall 2011 Collection.

Roberts & Richie in White at the Met


Nicole Richie and Emma Roberts both opted for sleek white dresses and blonde retro waves as she attended the Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty Costume Institute Gala at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 2.

Nicole's gorgeous gown was a vintage find, and teamed with House of Harlow jewelry, a black clutch, and Christian Louboutin heels.

Emma wore a Michael Kors design with a waist cut-out, accessorizing, like Nicole, with a contrasting black clutch, and sparkling Chopard earrings.

betty white saturday night live


'Saturday Night Live' recap: Betty White makes the night

At 88 1/2 years old, Betty White this weekend became the oldest host of "Saturday Night Live" and delivered (inspired?) 1 of the show's most consistently funny episodes of the season.

I realize that my Betty love could be tainting my opinion, but I enjoyed practically every sketch. Having White and returning cast members Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Maya Rudolph, Ana Gasteyer and Rachel Dratch seemed to freshen every tired current skit "SNL" trotted out.

Sure, the "SNL" writers overplayed White's age and naughty nature by giving her a ton of genitalia, sex and elderly jokes, but they just didn't seem to get--no pun intended--old. I was actually surprised how much they used her, too. She was in every skit. I half expected her to perform with Jay-Z. (I may have enjoyed him more.)

I was a little surprised they didn't spoof "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" or "Golden Girls" or something else from White's 62-year career, but I can't say I'm disappointed. It may have been too obvious a joke. It might have been to have her spoof her career in some other way; maybe playing a bitchy version of herself. But I guess she's done that already on "30 Rock," or was it "Ugly Betty?"

Anyway, let's talk about what they did do with White. Below you'll find a recap of all the Bettiness. I happen to think that if it wasn't the best "SNL" of the current season, it was close to it. The Tina Fey-hosted ep was great, but this one was more consistently funny. Did White top the other high points of the season, Zach Galifianakis and Jon Hamm? What do you think?

Health: Your teeth should be healthy

For a lovely smile, bright and white teeth are indispensable. Only brushing your teeth regularly is not going to give you a good smile, besides you also need to take healthy food. In order to retain healthy teeth and its inborn beauty, it is significant to take well selected healthy foods.



To keep the bone strong and stiff, the intake of calcium and vitamin “D” is absolutely necessary and if required, skimmed or low-fat food could also be taken. Vitamin ‘B’ based foods like cereal grains and bread is very important and necessary for a healthy body and teeth. Being full of iron, these foods also aids in our blood nutrition. Various types of vitamin ‘C’ based fruits and vegetables like orange, lemon, and deep green vegetables also play a great part in retaining a well protected gum and healthy teeth.



Fish, fatless chicken and red meat supplies protein and iron that helps in the nutrition and growth of each part of the body including the teeth. The presence of magnesium and zinc in foods like nuts and beans ensures a much stronger bone and teeth. After taking sugary foods, sweets, chocolates, candies, chewing gum, and soft drinks it is strongly advised that you keep your teeth clean. The deposit of sugar in the teeth produces dental plaque that produces acid which destroys the enamel of your teeth.



So if you want to keep your teeth strong and healthy, then make a regular practice of eating nuts and fruits, and drinking sugarless fresh juices.
