Miss BOLIVIA Universe 2008

Katherine David. Miss Bolivia Universo�Yo no compr� la corona, la gan� con esfuerzo�

Rildo BarbaVamos aclarando ciertos comentarios: Katherine David Céspedes (19) asegura que tiene pechos propios, ¡nada de silicona! Sus labios también son suyos. De hecho, un primo la llama ‘la picuda’. Y aunque perdió varios kilos en un corto tiempo, no fue porque haya pasado por las manos del cirujano estético, sino por dietas y mucho, mucho ejercicio. La Miss Bolivia Universo es de esas chicas que revientan de envidia a quienes por más que dejen de comer no adelgazan ni un kilo o no lucen como ella. De ser una gordita pasó a ser una escultural mujer.

- Katherine, ¿cómo adelgazaste tanto?

- A punta de dieta, pero con nutricionista; aprendiendo a comer y no dejando de hacerlo; tomando agua y evitando las gaseosas. Además, tuve que hacer mucho ejercicio.

- ¿Y no te quedó celulitis?

- Hay un poquito, pero la perderé en el gimnasio y tomando agua.

- Aparte de la rinoplastía que te has hecho, ¿creés que necesitás otra arregladita del cirujano plástico? - Me haría levantar las cejas para tener una mirada sexy (risas).Las fotos que ilustran esta portada de Sociales fueron tomadas por el fotógrafo oficial del Miss Universo, Fadil Berisha, en su estudio de Manhattan, en Nueva York. La sesión duró casi una jornada completa y el hombre quedó encantado con Katherine, a quien comparó con la ex reina universal Amelia Vega.

- ¿Creés que te parecés a ella?

- ¡No! Quizá ella se parece a mí (risas).

- Katherine, mucha gente decía que habías comprado tu título...

- Hay gente que habla porque tiene boca y no tiene nada más que hacer. Yo no compré la corona; la gané con esfuerzo. Pero, ¿sabés que me divierte todo lo que comentan de mí? Siempre digo que cuando a uno le tienen envidia es porque hacés lo que ellos no pueden hacer por su ignorancia y su falta de capacidad. Es entonces cuando te pillan defectos y tratan de hacerte quedar mal ante los demás.

- ¿Qué te puede hacer ganadora del Miss Universo en Vietnam?

- Tengo todo para ganar, sobre todo actitud y ganas de triunfar.

- ¿Y si no ganás?

- ¡Me estafaron! (risas). No, mentira. Si eso pasase, será porque Dios tendrá algo mejor para mí. Además, la vida continuará.

Katherine David se va el viernes 11 a estudiar inglés a Pensacola (EEUU). Estará allá dos meses.

- ¿No te da pena dejar a tus padres?- Sí, claro; pero ellos saben que es por mi bien.

- Oye, ¿es cierto que siendo Miss Bolivia tus papás todavía te retean y hasta te castigan?

- (Risas) ¡Claro! Soy miss, pero no he dejado de ser su hija.

Two bollywood Sexys In a Same Project

Riya and Raima Sen are coming together….and as sisters…in Vicky Chopra's Seasons Greetings.

The episodic film directed by Vicky Chopra will apparently have six stories all coming together in unexpected ways.

The two sisters are not too willing to discuss the project.

Raima shooting in Italy says, "Yes Riya and I are finally coming together as sisters. But I'm yet to hear the script, though I've given the nod. Though she's quite mad we're very much alike in most respects."

Riya speaking about the project earlier has said, "Raima and I stay together in Mumbai. There is not a thing that we don't share. All our friends are common. If she likes someone, so do I. And if I dislike someone, she doesn't have a choice. Our friends say we should've been twins."

The sisters had offers earlier to act together.

"But we were pretty sure that that if and when we come together it would have to be as sisters," said Riya.

Interestingly when Shilpa and her sis Shamita came together it was to play soutens Deepak Tijori's Fareb.

Ayesha's new Sexy look is result Of?

Ayesha knows how to hit headlines again and again to keep her name alive for audience and if it’s not with her portrayal of a character, with juicy gossips like her reducing body weight or stepping towards hotel industry or her endeavour to jump into a wedding with her boyfriend Farhaan.

Sometimes she comes prominent in news by denying some previous statement, too.

Now, all are well aware of complete foodie shade of Ayesha’s character. And in that scenario it’s very usual to put some extra kilos.

But what should we do about people going crazy even with that news!

Having no other way, poor Ayesha joins gym and starts taking instruction from her fitness expert mother. Though the aftermath of the process does not leave any amazing impact, people are not ready to let it go easily.

Yeah, it’s absolutely true! Working hard and sweating a lot Ayesha shapes herself back but crazy people are always the same doubting. This time, our crazy people tags Ayesha’s fresh look as a miracle of science and a result of surgery. Poor Ayesha baby!

So, Ayesha has nothing to do than to face everyone and tell them about how she went through the ‘true’ process of weight loss. But, does she actually need it?

Especially if she has really done so, then what’s the need to tell others! Does it not add little fuel to the doubt itself? Well, leave it. It’s all about people and Ayesha baby only. Why to go for a time-pass with such a mundane story?

Once the weight is lost, is lost forever. But we can suggest Ayesha one thing. Go ahead and put some weight again. Find a way to shed it in front of our crazy people. Only then people may believe it your hard sweating. We guess!

Sexy Tania Zaetta accused of sex with soldiers in Afghanistan

A Bollywood starlet who made her name going beyond the call of duty in Who Dares Wins, an Australian TV stunt show, has been accused of having sex with soldiers while on a tour to entertain troops in Afghanistan.

Tania Zaetta (above) was named in a confidential briefing paper to Australia’s Defence Minister as having slept with special forces soldiers last month at a military base in Tarin Kowt, the capital of Oruzgan province. Pictures and a video were said to have been taken.

But Australia’s military was in retreat last night, admitting that it broke its privacy regulations by naming the actress, 37, in the confidential note intended for Joel Fitzgibbon, the Defence Minister.

The Defence Department apologised to Zaetta for the leak, and Mr Fitzgibbon said he had ordered an inquiry into how the document officially referred to as a “hot issues brief” became public.
Zaetta, who has appeared on Baywatch and Mission Implausible, a British pay-TV show, denied the allegations and said there had been little opportunity to be alone with any soldier, even if she had wanted to be.

“How does a supposed document . . . that I don’t know about get leaked in the first place that’s a little bit concerning about the security of the country,” she said.

“It’s complete lies . . . apart from being hurtful, it’s damaging to a woman’s career, to her reputation.” The Government now faces a potential compensation payout after she sought legal advice over the claims, which the document said had been made by Angry Anderson, a veteran Australian rock star and fellow tour performer.

Kevin Rudd, the Prime Minister, reluctantly commented on the scandal, which drew criticism from the opposition conservative Liberal Party over invasion of privacy. “These matters are under investigation within the Defence Department and I will leave it for that investigation to reach its own conclusions,” Mr Rudd said.

Anderson, the bald former frontman for the rock band Rose Tattoo, denied that he had made a complaint.

Another performer said the entertainers had been told that they would breach Defence Force regulations if they fraternised with the troops. “I have heard of quickies but I have never heard of anything that quick . . . a tour like that is hard work,” John Clinton, of the country rock band the Wolverines, said.

Zaetta co-hosted the 1990s television show Who Dares Wins. She has featured in several Bollywood productions including a recent Charlie’s Angels-style hit, Mr. Black, Mr. White.

Battle Of Bikini between Amisha and Kareena

The history of Hindi cinema is witness to the fact that the top-most filmmakers call the shots when it comes to convincing the best and the most graceful of our leading heroines to don the ultimate symbol of boldness in B-town – the much famed bikini. The super-gorgeous Dimple Kapadia, Simi Garewal, Zeenat Aman and even the very arty Vyajanthimala once succumbed to showman Raj Kapoor.

And off-late, it is contemporary filmmaking veteran Yash Raj who has continued the trend. Though Kareena’s zero-size figure in a lime green bikini may have been an unsuccessful stint in saving Tashan from doomsday but the filmmaker is in no mood to make a U-turn when it comes to the ‘bikini’ formula.After convincing Esha Deol, daughter of B-town’s most dignified lady; the ‘intelligent sexy woman’ Bipasha and the bold Bebo to don a two-piece bikini, Amisha Patel is their latest muse.

Yes, Kaho Na Pyar Hai’s demure girl is all set to wow the audiences with a two-piece bikini in the Saif-Rani starer ‘ Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic’ . Now while it works as a great publicity stunt for Amisha who is back in the groove after a long-exile, we wonder what this one holds in store for Yash Raj’s latest flick. After all, B-town goers are no longer satisfied with plain bikinis. The essentials for grabbing eye-balls are not just a hour-glass figure but a ‘sexy attitude’ that creates a fine blend of mystery and seduction which even our stylish diva Bebo couldn’t quite deliver. So while Yash Raj has spent huge bucks on filming an underwater sequence that features Amisha at her bare best, let us see if the comeback heroine manages to score a brownie point or two over Bebo with this one.

Miss Universo 2001 - Denise Quiñones

Denise Marie August Quiñones representou Porto Rico no Miss Universo 2001, conquistando o título do ano, sucedendo a indiana e Miss Universo 2000 Lara Dutta. Acompanharam-na no TOP 5: Grécia (Evelina Papantoniou), Estados Unidos (Kandance Krueger), Venezuela (Eva Ekvall) e Índia (Celina Jaitley). Neste ano, a vitória de Denise foi muito comentada, pois ela foi a responsável, pelo "empate" de Porto Rico e Venezuela, em relação ao número de vitórias (4 vitórias, que viriam a se tornara 5 em 2006).

Além de ser considerada uma das mais belas a conquistar o Miss Universo, pode-se dizer, também, que é uma das misses mais bem sucedidas da historia do concurso, pois se tornou uma atriz nos Estados Unidos, participando de seriados como Smallville e Feddie e também de peças de teatro da Broadway.

Sexy Bollywood Actress Katrina Kaif 'touch-and-go'

When Bollywood oomph-dripping belle Katrina Kaif swung and swooned to ''...Zara Zara Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me'' in latest blockbuster 'Race', little did she know she was inviting trouble.

Similarly, when overweening item girl Rakhi Sawant belted out and swivelled to ''...Arre Yeh To Bata Dekhta Hai Tu Kya?'' in the latest turkey 'Krrazzy 4', she could not realise the consequences of her gyrating twirls.

Both were least aware of the fact that within months the lyrics of their songs would be taken at face value.

A kiss here and a liplock there. A wink here and a swivel on a heel there. A hug here and a cuddle there with your screen goddesses while watching a film. Your favourite actress giving the glad eye to you and curling your lock of hair amid a riot of colours is no pipedream any longer.

It would soon become a reality.

Welcome to the world of Adlabs Cinemas, which took the curtains off the country and Asia's first 6-Dimensional cinema experience in this history-soaked city overrun by international holiday makers on Friday, just minutes away from the monument to eternal love -- the Taj Mahal.

The audience never had it so good. They need not now curb their hidden overpowering desires. They are in for a treat. This is Adlabs Cinemas stupefying way of romancing the silver screen. A signpost of awe-inspiring cinema.

Providing a multi-sensory cinematic experience unlike anything cinema goers have ever encountered, the 6D Cinema is set to become a distinctive global tourist entertainment attraction.

''The concept of 3D cinema was launched some years ago.

But now we have come up with 6D cinema which will capture your six senses while you are watching a film.

3D cinema was all about visual effect where picture on the screen would pop out, but in 6D if a flower appears on the screen you can smell it, if water is splashed on the screen you can feel drops of water on your face and if some character is shown on screen you can feel his or her touch,'' Adlabs Cinemas Chief Operating Officer Tushar Dhingra told at the launch.

Unlike conventional 2D or 3D movie theatres, Cinema Park's technology employs cutting-edge visual and audio effects that bring strikingly real three-dimensional images right before audiences' eyes, thus allowing them to simultaneously experience sight, smell, sound, touch, motion and above all interactivity, knocking spots off the earlier formats, Mr Dhingra added.

A special half hour film, 'India in Motion', in four languages-- Hindi, English, French and Spanish -- has been specially created within this format wherein well-known Indian actor Anupam Kher takes the audience through India's evolution from an ancient civilisation to a modern nation bustling with activity and abundant with opportunity.

Other films which have been very popular in other Cinema Parks across the world such as Journey through the Universe will also be screened, he informed.

''The day is not far when full-fledged commercial Bollywood films will also be screened in this theatre where the touch and caress of actress might also be felt by the audience and whenever a hot heroine appears on the screen the temperature of the theatre would rise, '' he said tongue in cheek.

He said his group planned to open more such theatres in other tourist destinations like Goa, Jaipur and Devasthanam Tirupati.

In such theatres globetrotters would be able to take a whistlestop tour of India more and more within a mere 25 to 30 minutes for six to eight dollars but for domestic travellers the cost would come around Rs 150 for the 30-minute infotainment.

''Right now, we have the presence in 54 cities and plan to take the number to 110 by the end of this fiscal,'' Mr Dhingra said.

Mr Ori Yardeni, CEO and Founder of Cinema Park Network, said: ''We are proud that India, which is an important tourist destination, is joining our global network.

We have already set-up multi-sensory experiences in other parts of the world, including Disney World in Florida, and now India is our first installation in Asia. We will provide the tourist agencies and operators with a state-of-the-art unforgettable experience, based on a solid commercial partnership.''

''India in Motion in Agra is going to be one of our flagship Wonders of the World (WoW) projects.'' ''WoW is going to be a major player in the tourism industry and our plan is to set-up similar experiences in the most toured destinations around the world. India in Motion actually complements the visit at the Taj Mahal, and turns it into a livewire experience,'' added Mr Yardeni.

Bollywood Actress Amisha Patel’s skin show!

All those who have seen the rushes of Thoda Pyar Thoda Magic are going gung ho about Amisha Patel.

Apparently the actress is looking wow in a glamorous new avtaar. More than her look, there’s plenty of skin show, but no one is complaining because the actress has worked on her body and is looking very hot and happening. In fact, we hear that with this film, she is planning to revamp her onscreen image from a girl next door to a sexy siren.

With a new boyfriend Kanav, who is ready to lay the world at her feet and now with her new sexy look, Amisha seems to be heading at the right direction. Now do we see Vikram Bhatt raising his eyebrows?

Where’s Sexy Nisha Kothari gone?

Priyanka, better known as Nisha Kothari, seems to have done a disappearing act.

And the name change hasn’t really changed her luck in Bollywood. The actress was hoping that the name change would get her good films, but this Basanti of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag, hasn’t been signed on by any noteworthy banner. Also she’s not be seen in any of RGV’s forthcoming venture.

With very few assignments on hand we wonder what Nisha... oops Priyanka plans to do now? Wonder if another name change is on the cards! We hope it works for her this time around.

Bollywood Actress Shilpa was so reluctant and scared

For a scene in the Sunny Deol-directed The Man, Shilpa Shetty had to slap her co-star Sudhanshu Pandey. And if the latter is to be believed, the actress was very reluctant to do so.

"It was an emotional scene where I was supposed to console her and she was required to slap me in a fit of rage. But Shilpa was so reluctant and scared. She had to be literally convinced to slap me to get the shot right," Sudhanshu, a singer, model and actor, said.

Sudhanshu said that he had to ultimately hold her hand and make her slap him to be more comfortable with the shot. "It was funny as she still couldn't do it. But since she had no option, she did it very lightly," he said.

The actor, who featured in Sanjay Gupta's film Dus Kahaniyaan, was in Delhi to attend the launch of an All Sports Bar.

2008 has proved to be lucky for Sudhanshu, who became a father for the second time earlier this month and also has some big banner films lined up for release.

Talking about his forthcoming projects, Sudhanshu said: "Alibaug, The Man and Singh is King are in the pipeline and I am really excited."

Sudhanshu, a former member of the music group Band of Boys, has sung in Sanjay Gupta's Alibaug, where he plays a business tycoon.

"Yes, I have sung in Alibaug. It was Sanjay [Gupta] who dragged me into it and the experience was fantastic," he said, making it clear that he would never get associated with a music band, however.

The actor, who calls himself "simple, focussed and a family man", is looking for a name for his newborn son. "It has become difficult to decide on a good name."
