Celebrity Crush: Minka Kelly

Minka Kelly
Born in Los Angeles, California. Raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Minka is an actress whose most well known role was Lyla Garrity in the TV series Friday Night Lights. She has also appeared in movies such as The Kingdom, and 500 days of summer.
I love her personal style as well as her natural beauty. She is sometimes mistaken for actress Leighton Meester from Gossip Girl.

I just recently heard of Minka Kelly after seeing her on the best dressed list for the People's choice awards wearing a lovely Spring '11Vivienne Westwood dress.

  I am a little obsessed with army green right now, so I'm kind of in love with this jacket and the dress.

 I also am digging this boho style on her.

Jade Goody 'Will Be No More After 30 DAys'

Jade Goody is drawing up her will after learning she only has 'months to live'.

The 27-year-old, who is fighting cervical cancer, was given the devastating news by doctors yesterday, according to the Daily Mirror. It had been hoped that treatment with the 'wonder drug' Topotecan would prolong the reality star's life.

However, doctors have said the cancer is so far advanced there is nothing more they can do.



The news comes after it emerged Jade is desperate to marry Jack Tweed before she loses her battle with cancer – and will even say ‘I do’ in her hospital bed if she is not well enough to go home.

She is planning a £1million ceremony ‘for the sake of her children’, according to The Daily Star.

She is hoping it will secure the future for sons Bobby Jack and Freddie.

A source said Jade is hoping to take part in a 'traditional' ceremony, but is prepared to tie the knot in hospital if she is too ill and weak.

The reality TV celebrity, who is suffering from cervical cancer, has been told she only has months to live - and is reported to have drawn up a will.

According to The Sun, doctors have told Jade they are powerless to stop the disease and she is no longer receiving chemotherapy.

They are now aiming to keep the young mother as comfortable and pain-free as possible.

Jade underwent emergency surgery at London’s Royal Marsden Hospital last Friday to remove a tumour from her bowel.

Her operation came just 24 hours after the 27-year-old was told the devastating news her cancer had spread to her bowel, groin and liver.

She was moved out of intensive care two days ago and is now said to be eager to return home to spend her remaining time with her sons and lover.

Her spokesman Max Clifford told The Daily Star: ‘We are all hoping for the best but Jade knows she might not have much time left, and to be blunt, she is desperate to earn as much money as she can.

‘It is fair to say that selling the rights to her wedding would be a surefire way of earning a big amount of money.’

Jade's reaction to her prognosis will be aired in the next installment of her reality series, 'Jade's Progress' which airs next week.



My biggest fear was that I would have to have a colostomy bag.

'I've dealt with losing my hair - but a poo bag, that really would have been the final indignity for a woman. But, like everything else, I'd have coped because I have to.

'Where there's life there's hope. That is what I am clinging on to.'

The latest turn of events in Jade's ongoing health troubles mean she will be unable to enjoy a special Valentine's Day treat by boyfriend Jack Tweed.

Tweed, who was released from prison on January 27 after serving time for GBH, had organised for celebrity haunt The Ivy to make a special takeaway for Jade.

But the former Big Brother contestant is currently too ill to eat, so Jack had cancelled the meal.

Jack said: 'I can't spend the evening with her because of my tag, but I'll be doing something special for her.'

Jack is currently tagged and has to observe a night curfew and live at his mother's house.

Meanwhile, she has vowed to carry on filming her LivingTV reality show Jade: The Next Chapter.

Living TV chief Claudia Rosencrantz said: 'I’ve cried so much for Jade and have been very emotional for her. But she needs this money so much for her two sons.

'She also she needs the opportunity to show the world how to avoid cancer. That’s also important to her.'

Jade's publicist Max Clifford said: 'She wants to be busy, so there’s something to keep her occupied in-between the trauma and the pain.

'She also wants to warn other people. In terms of Living TV, it’s very much, "Do you want us to stop, Jade? Do you want us to leave you?."

'Jade’s attitude is, "When I’m up to it, you do the filming, that’s what I want to do."'

Jade was diagnosed with stage 4 cervical cancer last August while appearing on the Indian Big Brother and underwent emergency surgery to remove a large tumour, her womb and her ovaries.

Since then, she has had several bouts of chemotherapy, causing all her hair to fall out.

Only 15 per cent to 30 per cent of women with stage 4 cervical cancer will live longer than five years.

Doctors had told her she had a 40 per cent of survival but scrapped this estimate after discovering the cancer has spread.

The Mirror reported a source close to the mother-of-two saying: 'This is the news she has been dreading.

'No matter how bad things seemed before there was always some hope. Now even that has been taken away from her.

'She now has to face up to the full horror that she is going to die – and that she is going to die soon.'

Hollywood's Richest Sizzling Womens.......

Reared in poor, rural Mississippi , Oprah today is the richest woman in entertainment and the only black female billionaire. In the late 1980s, following the debut of her super-successful syndicated talk show, Oprah earned $2 million a year. Today, she pockets an estimated $225 million annually from TV (including shows starring Dr. Phil McGraw and Rachael Ray, produced by Oprah's Harpo Productions), satellite radio, magazines and other multimedia endeavors.



She could have easily disappeared into pop obscurity like the other frothy pop tartlets ( Cy ndi Lauper, Neneh Cherry) who came to fame on nascent MTV in the early 1980s. But Madonna's masterful manipulation of her image and the press, combined with an astute business sense, have crowned her as one of entertainment's wealthiest and most enduring acts. While her albums don't sell like they used to, her concerts still set attendance records all over the world, grossing $1 billion over the course of her 20-year career. The Material Girl's portfolio is also crammed with expensive items like contemporary art, real estate and a wardrobe of no small historical significance.



The Canadian chanteuse's exclusive five-year gig at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas has vaulted her into fifth place on our list of The 20 Richest Women in Entertainment. Dion's stationary extravaganza is more profitable than one that requires paying roadies in every major city in the world. An estimated 140 million albums sold worldwide hasn't hurt her bottom line either; her single 'My Heart Will Go On'--the theme song for the blockbuster Titanic--sold over 15 million copies alone.



The Long Island songbird's career exploded in 1990 with her debut album released under the guidance of Columbia Records' boss Tommy Mottola. (The two endured a tempestuous five-year marriage before divorcing in 1998.) Her career was seriously derailed with the 2001 release of Glitter, a critically slammed semi-autobiographic soundtrack and movie. A year later, Columbia bought out her contract for a reported $28 million. No one could have anticipated her extraordinary comeback in 2005 with the bestselling The Emancipation of Mimi. To date, the pop diva has sold 160 million albums.



As the youngest of the famous Jackson clan, Janet has always enjoyed the spotlight. But it wasn't until 1986, with the release of her breakout, platinum-selling album Control, that she came into her own. Since then, Michael's kid sister has sold over 50 million records worldwide and landed 10 No. 1 singles on Billboard's Hot 100. Her latest album, 20 Y.O., hardly made a blip on the charts, but don't count Miss Jackson out. Tours have proven a substantial cash cow for the seasoned performer, and she hits the road again in March.



The highest-paid female actress in history, this Academy Award winner grew up in Smyrna , Ga. , and, after high school, followed her older brother, actor Eric Roberts, to New York . After her breakout role as a hooker with a heart of gold in Pretty Woman (1990), Roberts went on to become the first actress to break the $20 million salary mark for a movie, which had become standard for Hollywood 's male superstars. Roberts still holds the world record for highest payday ever earned by an actress: She pocketed $25 million for the 2003 flick Mona Lisa Smiles, which amounted to nearly 40% of what the film grossed stateside.



The former backup dancer from the Bronx has gone on to become a multimedia powerhouse in both movies and music. She commands upwards of $15 million per movie, but she's lately taken far less to focus on pet projects. While her albums once sold millions, her last, Rebirth, released in 2005, suffered from disappointing sales. Lopez is a well-rounded businesswoman with several other revenue streams, including a clothing line, an incredibly successful perfume line, a Pasadena, Calif.-based Cuban restaurant called Madre's, and a new reality show on MTV.



The daughter of a soap star (John Aniston of Days of Our Lives ), Aniston eclipsed her father's TV fame with her turn as Rachel Green on the eternally popular sitcom Friends . In the show's final years (it ran 10 seasons), Aniston and her castmates struck what was then a record deal: $1 million each per episode. Her film career has been hit or miss: Bombs like Rumor Has It and Derailed have been offset by box-office bonanzas like Bruce Almighty and The Breakup. The press-averse Aniston is magazine cover gold, which has kept her divorce from Brad Pitt in the headlines for some two years and counting.



At age 20, the fraternal twins preside over the tween retail empire Dualstar Entertainment Group. Established in 1993, it sells $1 billion worth of merchandise worldwide a year--everything from videos to hair-care products--primarily through Wal-Mart Stores and the twins' Web site, MaryKateAndAshley.com. Last year, the twins starred in print advertisements for high-end designer Badgley Mischka. Not bad for former child sitcom stars (Full House) who haven't appeared in a hit movie or television show since.



In just a few short years, Spears went from an obscure teen actress on the Disney Channel's short-lived The New Mickey Mouse Club to one of the most successful pop singers in the world with her 1999 debut album, ...Baby One More Time . During her brief career, she has sold 75 million records and enjoyed seven hit singles. Her tours have grossed $145 million to date. Spears took the last few years off, a period in which she married, had two children, then ultimately filed for divorce from backup dancer Kevin Federline--a series of events that helped earn her tabloid queen status.. Word is Britney is back in the studio recording a comeback album.



Bullock rose to fame with 1994's Speed and soon went on to become one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood . She banked her biggest paycheck for Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous , released in 2005, which grossed just over $100 million worldwide. Fortis Films, her production outfit, produced many of her films, including both Miss Congeniality films and Two Weeks Notice. It also produces ABC's The George Lopez Show, now in syndication.



Diaz is Hollywood 's only actress besides Julia Roberts to break the $20 million-per-film salary mark. The former model got her big break in 1994 as an unknown starring opposite Jim Carrey in The Mask; she went on to star in blockbusters like There's Something About Mary and the Charlie's Angels films. Thanks to commercial disappointments The Sweetest Thing and In Her Shoes , her salary has since been slashed. But she's still one of Hollywood 's most bankable (and prolific) stars.



While she hasn't sold as many albums as fellow former Mickey Mouse Club castmate and pop tart rival Britney Spears, the Grammy Award winner's latest album, Back to Basics, went to No. 1 on the charts in 13 countries. Aguilera has sold over 20 million albums to date, while her tours have grossed some $50 million. Endorsement deals with Verizon and Pepsi, among others, have also bolstered her bottom line.
