Victoria Beckham Writes Letter To 18-Year-Old Self If you said Victoria Beckham, you guessed right… The “posh” mom of four, wife to David Beckham and retired pop star penned a letter to her 18-year-old self-published by British Vogue where she reflects back on her accomplishments and tough moments in life, and she admits that operating on her chest was a mistake: Your complexion will sort itself out (in fact you will launch your own make-up brand); as soon as the Eighties are over, your perm will die down, and your weight will settle itself. At school you eat Super Noodles and boxes of Frosties because they say they are fat free, and you will endure many other silly fad diets (including an addiction to green juices). Instead, learn to embrace your imperfections – that is what I want to tell you. Let your skin breathe; wear less make-up. (And don’t ever let that make-up artist shave your eyebrows! The effects last forever.) You will always be addicted to Elnett hairspray but you will tone it down. Less of the “Hello! I just got stuck in a wind tunnel”, please. And I should probably say, don’t mess with your boobs. All those years I denied it – stupid. A sign of insecurity. Just celebrate what you’ve got. There’s more — Beckham reflects on marriage, motherhood and dealing with the paparazzi. You can read the full letter HERE. WENN

Adam Lambert to Front Queen Tour This Summer

He is the champion, our friends. Adam Lambert will join iconic band Queen on tour this summer, both sides announced this week, a development that follows the singer’s 2009 American Idol finale performance with original members Brian May and Roger Taylor; as well as their teaming up again at the MTV European Music Awards in November. “The intention is to pay tribute to [late singer Freddie Mercury] and the band by singing some f-cking great songs,” Lambert tells Great Britain’s The Daily Star. “It’s to keep the music alive for the fans and give it an energy that Freddie would have been proud of.” Lambert, of course, admits that he has no intention of replacing Mercury, who passed away from AIDS in 1991. “That’s impossible,” he said. “The way I’m choosing to view it is that it’s a great honor and one I’m in no way going to shirk.” Adam and the group will tour in May and stop at Knebworth in England, where Queen played their final gig with Mercury in 1986.

Rachel Weisz L’Oreal Ad: Banned in the UK!

Rachel Weisz looks unreal in her new ad for L’Oreal. SO unreal, in fact, that Britain’s Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) believes she looks unnaturally stunning and thus, the ad has been pulled from the UK. Photoshop enhancements in beauty and fashion images are SOP, but some UK officials have been doing their part to put an end to airbrushing in excess. The ad for L’Or

Oxygen Bio Takes Big Step Forward

Zacks.com submits: This morning, Oxygen Biotherapeutics ( OXBT ) announced that the company has begun distribution of its new formulation of Dermacyte (perfluorocarbon oxygen concentrated gel) for the beauty and skin care market. This is essentially the full-scale rollout of Dermacyte following the pilot launch in the fourth quarter 2009 when the company made available 5,000 boxes on the company’s website, www.BuyDermacyte.com. According to management, the product sold out in the first month after the initial stock became available online. The new formulation, which will be manufactured in continuing batches, incorporates a smoother and more effective concentrate to provide oxygen to the skin. The product helps promote the healthy appearance of skin by minimizing the appearance of fine lines, brightening and smoothing the complexion, and by keeping skin moist and oxygenated.

Which Financial ETFs Benefit From Reform Uncertainty? Which Could Break Down?

Gary Gordon submits: A year-long battle over health care reform kept their ETFs in check, though not due to the proposed regulations and possible restrictions. Wall Street simply hated the uncertainty. Once the political cloud lifted, however, many began picking medical device makers , biotech and brand name pharma as market out-performers. So here comes the next wave… financial reform. Considering the systemic breakdown of 2008, the Bernie Madoff scandal and the class warfare of Wall Street versus Main Street, it’s a bit surprising that Congress waited until 2010. Nevertheless, there’s plenty of “how-to-fix-the-system” ideas on the table. Complete Story
