New Wonder Woman outfit not so super says past Super Hero Linda Carter?

Hollywood Gossip!

Wonder Woman costume gets third celebrity makeover after criticism from Linda Carter?

[Apr. 7]

The new Wonder Woman outfit is not so super as an iconic costume says past Super Hero Linda Carter. Or at least that is what The Hollywood Reporter seemed to imply in an article about the celebrity makeover dated March 30. But what is the real story behind the comic book heroine and her keen fashion sense that made history?

The new 2011 Hollywood version of the wardrobe for the gold rope toting gal who fought on the side of right while wearing American inspired patriotic emblems flashed across her boobs and back side in the days of old is now lackluster at best say bloggers and comic book fans.

Proposed first as a modified sketch of the actress hired to play Wonder Woman, the Super Heroine was supposed to be dressed all in squeaky pleather looking vinyl. While the choice to wear the non-leather outfit might have made quite a few vegans happy, Americans who take their comic book super hero movies and television series seriously thought the outfit was hooker-endous. What’s more, it looked like Wonder Woman (invisible or not) could not sneak up on anybody.

Linda Carter was the actress who most remember as the Wonder Woman figure from the 1970s. With flowing dark brown raven locks, big blue eyes, and legs up to her neck, her satin hot pants and knee high boots worn with the most uplifting of bustiers was a celebrity fashion memorable to… well, quite frankly, just about everybody.

You did not have to be a man to be impressed by Linda Carter’s beauty. Linda Carter’s Measurements back int he day were 38-26-38, and she competed in Miss World USA pageant and Miss World USA, 1972 says Celebrity Sleuth magazine. The half Irish, half Mexican beauty was iconic with out without her lead role in the New Adventures of Wonder Woman television series simply because she was so lovely. Put her in a sexy super hero costume and BAM! The woman — as a woman’s role model and advocate for justice — became a vital part of American pop culture history.

Celebrity Moms: Mariska Hargitay newly adopted baby girl named by son?

Celebrity Moms!

Television actress Mariska Hargitay let young son August name his newly adopted baby sister —

[Apr. 7]

Get ready to make that big AWWWW sound. There have been some big decisions in actress Mariska Hargitay’s house this month. According to the Hollywood Reporter, “The Law & Order: Special Victims Unit actress told People magazine that both her husband, Peter Hermann, and four-year-old son, August, helped to name their adopted one-week old addition to the family.”

Hargitay reports their choice in baby girl names are officially Amaya Josephine, which she revealed to the press was adapted from Hargitay’s favorite girl’s name, Maya, by her young son.

The lovely television star said her son actually came up with the name, and that she was pleased with the choice because now the two children have the same initials.

“I like that name, but I wanted her to have the same initials as August,” the actress said. “I thought adding the ‘A’ was so feminine. Amaya sounded so open and feminine and beautiful — just like her.”

Big brother is very proud of his newly adopted little sister, and the two are expected to bond quickly as siblings.

As a green celebrity, Mariska Hargitay plays a strong female lead role on SVU — a TV show that tackles the tough issue of victims and their families who survive or suffer the loss of family members due to sexually motivated crimes.

Often seen on camera and off advocating for victims rights, women’s rights, and standing up for all that is right and good, Mariska Hargitay is one of the brightest female stars in Hollywood in our book.

Will she raise her new daughter as a green baby — and keep her family green kids eco-friendly? We hope so!

Congratulations to all on the new family member… she surely makes a great addition and it is so nice to hear that her big brother already includes the little sister as part of his life with mommy and daddy.

A+ parenting. 😉

Reality Television News!

Casting Call opens for new Mother-Daughter Reality TV series —

[Apr. 7]

The creators of Jersey Shore have issued a casting call for a new Mother-Daughter reality television series, and if you think Snooki, JWOWW, and The Situation are bad — just wait until you see the mom and daughter pairs they hope to dredge up! Jerry Springer auditions ought to slow down if this reality TV show revs up. Details below.

How likely is it that the new show will feature any eco-friendly celebrities? Not very. However, simply due to the ridiculous factor, we half way expect there to be pampered pets that make an appearance at some point with at least one pet friendly mom or soon-to-be celebrity kids.

We also hope that no matter how crazy the AND SHE’S YOUR MOM show gets that it will have a bit of the Housewives flair, in that moms with means typically will c=participate in some way raising funds for charity.

Keep your fingers crossed, GCN readers, that they elect to feature divas of decadence who hold fund-raisers at local country clubs more than tarts from trailer parks who don’t go farther than the local pub. Since the Judds were already taken by the Oprah Winfrey Network, it will be interesting to see if any star celeb moms and Hollywood starlet girls audition for this casting call.

Celebrity Apprentice 2011: Who is NeNe Leakes and why is she famous?

Celebrity Apprentice 2011!

Who is NeNe Leakes and why is she famous?

[Apr. 6]

Star of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, NeNe Leakes has a dominating personality. She is unafraid to speak her mind, and she has gotten some flak over some over-the-top behavior. She has been the subject of some controversy with fellow Celebrity Apprentice contestant, Star Jones, even prompting movie star actor Matthew McConaughey to say he can’t wait to see the inevitable fireworks between she and former The View talk show host Star Jones go down. As a green celebrity, NeNe Leakes is competing to benefit Atlanta Union Mission to support My Sister’s House for Women Against Domestic Abuse, but as a Hollywood celebrity who gained fame as a reality television show star, fans want to know… who is this woman and why is she famous? [Even if it is only in her own home town.]

Linnethia “NeNe” Leakes is a native of Queens, New York, and mother of 18-year-old Brice and 9-year-old Brentt, according to Essence magazine. And while she also is a green celebrity, she certainly brought the New York attitude with her to Housewives, and she is poised to do the same for Celebrity Apprentice. If anyone was cast to play the role of antagonist on Celebrity Apprentice, NeNe Leakes is a prize choice.

In an interview with Essence magazine NeNe Leakes said of her appearance on Housewives, “We’re going to bring a lot of fun, a lot of drama. We are five fun, fabulous girls. We’re very smart, we’re businesswomen, we’re go-getters, we’re moms, and I think everybody is going to absolutely love the show. We do have our differences here and there. I really wanted to do the show to get my name and business out there.”

Jennifer Aniston makes headline news claiming she wants to marry George Clooney?

[Apr. 6]

Jennifer Aniston is a smart girl, there is now doubt. She keeps her name perpetually in the headlines and has a massive following of fans who love the girl next door gimmick the beauty queen has always cultivated and put out. One way she keeps her name in bright lights and bringing in the big bucks is by constantly posing for bikini shots — keeping her barely clad self always just in view of paparazzi photog cameras. Another is by using celebrity friends to land film roles, such as her latest major motion pic with Adam Sandler that already few people can remember. However, her major kudos maneuver to keep her name on the tip of every wagging tongue that follows Hollywood gossip (ourselves included here at GCN) is the very real fact she is forever keeping her love life in the headlines. This time, it is not a break up that has her name at the top of Google News — it is a proclamation that Jennifer Aniston made in a celebrity interview that claimed the hot Hollywood starlet famous for her celebrity hairstyle and playing a good girl on TV wants to marry and have celebrity kids with none other that her ex-husband Brad Pitt’s best friend George Clooney.

George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis pet friendly green celebrities?

Green Celebrities!

George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis both pet friendly star celebs?

[Apr. 6]

There is no bachelor more eligible in the world than the currently taken Hollywood actor George Clooney. Presently the green celeb is dating an Italian bikini swimsuit model named Elisabetta Canalis, and while she seems to have more critics than friends in Italy for her outspoken antics on MTV’s TRL show (where she hosts) and penchant for dating soccer players, she’s slowly gaining popularity with Americans and some Europeans after landing a relationship with the famous movie star.

George Clooney owns a private estate in Lake Como, Italy where he and the Italian beauty first met. She apparently has a place across the lake and some tabloid gossip reports say when George Clooney first saw Elisabetta Canalis and realized she was already a public figure in Italy, he was smitten.

Why?

Well, besides the fact that the young lady has a fabulous bum that must stop traffic whenever she walks down the street and undoubtedly impresses beach goers every time she strolls down the sand on any continent’s azure coast and sandy shores, the two seem to have some very curious traits in common.

First, George Clooney was rumored to be infatuated with all things Italian long before he met Elisabetta Canalis. Gossip sources say he was obsessed with finding an Italian paramour who could travel with him around Italy and live with him at his home to teach him the language. Elisabetta was just that — and hoping to improve her English-speaking skills so she could star in Hollywood movie and television series some day. The natural relationship that formed between the two over the lack of commonality of language was, for that reason, a win win for the celebrity couple.

Second, Elisabetta Canalis came along at a time when George Clooney was not only involved in advocating to end the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, but also when he was about to head out to meet and greet all his Hollywood celebrity friends to ask them for money to help Haiti. Before the earthquake struck, Clooney was in need of a stunning date to take with him to the red carpet and high fashion events that were related to the heavy fall movie premiere launches for a slew of films, giving her plenty of flash camera time — but Canalis place as George Clooney’s sidekick seems to have come more behind the scenes where she played celebrity home hostess to all the Hollywood actors and actresses who came to vacation stay at George Clooney’s lakeside mansion on holiday. From the outside looking in, it appeared as if Clooney offered celebrity friends a get away perk to stay at his place for being good green celebs and chipping in to help his charity benefit causes; it also appeared as if Elisabetta played the hot tour guide, helping his English-speaking friends vacation out of the public eye while exploring historical Italy. That made her the perfect pretend housewife at just the right time George Clooney needed one the most, while offering her a chance to really make friends with the Hollywood elite that will undoubtedly help her along in her career even when she and Clooney inevitably part company.

Third, the two star celebs seem to have something else very curious in common. While they both have parenting natures (maternal for her and paternal for him), it is not in either of their short-term or long-range plans to have babies. That’s right — neither Elisabetta Canalis or George Clooney want kids. They both prefer to exercise their co-parenting skills taking care of family pets. George Clooney is famous as a green celebrity for being pet-friendly as the former proud papa of a huge Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, while Elisabetta Canalis says all her maternal instincts are kept in shape working out with her pet puppies. The model is a pet-friendly dog lover who also has spent considerable time advocating on behalf of animal rights charities. She claims she would rather have dogs than kids.

So, there you have it.

George Clooney and Elisabetta Canalis are pet friendly humanitarians and green celebrities.
