“You can pay for school but you can’t buy class…” 10 Classy Celebrities It’s been said that the Hollyweird life is not one for the faint at heart or those without a thick skin. In addition to that, it truly takes a certain type of individual to be able to enjoy all of the perks that come along with fame and fortune, while also still managing not to spazz out and totally sabotage your reputation in the face of the ugly side of the lime light that threatens to ruin the livelihoods of celebrities every day. No one is perfect and what’s more, some regrettable reactions really are unavoidable when you find your back against the wall. But some how, some way these people have managed to hold it together, handle their personal business in private and keep it classy in the public eye….so far.

Is Gwynnie working with stacked cakes or pancakes ? Via US Weekly reports : Perennial health nut Gwyneth Paltrow told reporters on Thursday, April 4 that adopting the Tracy Anderson Method has given her a completely different outlook on life — and a more shapely bum to boot! Speaking to reporters at the opening of Tracy Anderson’s flagship studio in L.A., Paltrow recalled one incident in particular, when she was trying on bathing suits with a pal and received a rather unusual compliment about her figure. “I said, ‘You know, this isn’t so bad for 40, right?’” Paltrow mused of her butt. “And [my friend] goes, ‘It’s not so bad for a 22-year-old skripper!’” Prior to going full-force with celeb trainer Anderson’s workout regimen, Paltrow claimed she was convinced that there was no way she could change her rear. “Oh, I knew it would never change!” she told reporters. “I had exercised before I had met her … I had done Ashtanga yoga and pilates and I [ran] and I thought I was fit, you know?” But, Paltrow said, Anderson convinced her that though she was in good shape, she could transform her figure completely through the rigorous routine. And that hard work clearly paid off! At Thursday’s big event — also attended by Kim Kardashian and Stacy Keibler — the Goop founder wowed on the red carpet with a youthful, bright magenta Victoria Beckham dress with a black zip down the back that showed off her shapely legs and figure. The 40-year-old mother of two paired her dress with a pair of black-and-neon orange Michael Kors heels. Paltrow added that she always pushes herself to do the workouts every day — no matter what. “I just sob and then kick and scream and then I just force myself to do it,” she said. “I just got obsessed. When you see results like that, I started following everything she said and she completely transformed my body and I’m so grateful.” Do you think Gwyn’s body is bangin’? Or does BFF Beyoncé have her beat? To be fair, the bikini shots we posted are from two Summers ago, but the photo above is from Thursday and the rest of them are from 2012. WENN/FameFlynetPictures

Happy Friday ladies! Laz Alonso Covers XEX Magazine Hollyweird man candy Laz Alonso is giving the ladies (and some of the fellas) an eye full of swag on the cover of this men’s edition of XEX Magazine. The veteran actor, who is currently starring opposite Meagan Good in the new NBC drama series “Deception,” recently sat down with XEX to dish on his bangin bawwwdied co-star, staying grounded in Hollyweird and much more. Check out a few interview excerpts below. via XEX Magazine Can you tell us a little about your character? “Will is a lot different from a lot of characters I’ve played. You will see a man that is still in love with Meagan’s character Joanna. An Ex that is vulnerable and caring and although still strong, he shows his insecurities as a man who no longer has the woman he’s lost. It’s a delicate balance of love, passion, and trying to remain professional.” Deception has a wonderful cast. What was it like working with such talent as Megan Good, Katherine Lanassa, and Victor Garber? “I have worked with Megan on other projects, and have seen her growth as an actor. She is doing an amazing job and I am really happy to get cast opposite actors that make me step my game up every scene. Katherine and Victor are always on point and make me always feel like I have to bring my A game to work. I love working with actors that make me raise my performance bar.” You’ve been a successful actor for years. What motivates you in this changing industry? How do you stay grounded? “Staying grounded isn’t the problem. My challenge is accepting the change that is happening in the industry. Unfortunately in some ways it’s becoming more commercial and less about telling great stories. But we must do our best to keep it as authentic as possible.” You are a part of the new breed of emerging leading men in Hollywood…What is your personal style? Do you consider yourself a trendsetter? “I would much rather be someone who “inspires” than “sets trends”. Trends come and go, but inspiration will always last. I have my own personal rugged, military inspired style. It’s purpose driven clothing that fits, accessories that mean something to me. But I love nice materials and a nice fitted look. It’s clean.” With all of the rapidly changing fashion trends out on the scene right now, what or who (as far as designers) inspires some of your best looks on the red carpet? “I love Zegna suits. And believe it or not, Uggs men’s line has a crazy apparel line, Rag and bone pants, Vincent, Diesel, G-star, Rockstar, Converse, and combat boots. I like boutique clothes. Not a big box mall type shopper. The smaller designers are leading fashion right now and you see the bigger brands following them.” Where do you see yourself 5 to 10 years from now in the film/tv/fashion industry? Personal Life/family? “I don’t know where I’ll be nor do I plan that far ahead anymore. I try to live in the moment, enjoy it as much as possible and work hard today and now. Sometimes we get so caught up about the future we miss what is going on right now. You can chase the future, but it’s coming regardless. Enjoy the now.” Well, we’re definitely enjoying the now if it means more of this face on the small….or big….screen. The Spring 2013 Men’s Edition of XEX Magazine hits newsstands April 5th.

SMH. Khloe can’t live… Questions about Khloe’s paternity continue to swirl and they are actually getting worse now that there are reports her momager paid off the man who some say really fathered her . Via RadarOnline reports : The lingering controversy swirling around if Robert Kardashian was truly Khloe Kardashian‘s father has kicked into high gear again, thanks to a new report claiming Kris Jenner paid off the REAL father — hairdresser Alex Roldan — and included a $30 million penalty clause in a non-disclosure agreement that accompanied the deal. “Alex has been bought up by Kris, so he can’t speak,” a source told InTouch of the 56-year-old Los Angeles-based beautician, who’s been working with Kris for three decades. Another insider close to the family said Khloe would “feel completely betrayed” if she knew about the payoff. “I just feel terrible for Khloe,” the insider said. “Imagine waking up one day and suddenly realizing your whole life has been a lie.” While Khloe, 28, and Kris, 57, have insisted that the late legal great was indeed Khloe’s birth father, they have yet to take a conclusive DNA test to prove it, even in the face of a $250,000 challenge from radio great Gregg “Opie” Hughes last year. The magazine features a close side-by-side comparison of Khloe and Alex, pointing out their similar eyes, nose and lip shapes. The story about Khloe’s paternity was first reported by Star magazine, based on interviews with two of Robert’s ex-wives, Jan Ashley and Ellen Kardashian. “Khloe is not his kid — he told me that after we got married,” Ashley, Robert’s wife after his split from after Kris, told Star last year. “He just kind of looked at me and said [it] like it was a matter of fact. He said, ‘Well, you know that Khloe’s not really a Kardashian, don’t you?’ And I said…’OK,’ and that was it.” Do you believe it? Should Khloe just go ahead and take a DNA test to prove all these reports wrong or do you think she’s better off ignoring the rumors?
Lookin’ more bangin’ than the beauty of the week! It’s hard to believe Nia Long is 42 right? The actress covers the upcoming April 8th issue of JET where she discusses her nearly 30-year career and her relationship with former NBA player Ime Udoka. Here’s a few details via JETmag.com : JET: Everyone’s buzzing about you reprising the role of Jordan in The Best Man Holiday (out November 15). The original was definitely a classic film— but it’s been almost 15 years. Why do a sequel now? We made magic together— so many people say that to me. And because I love the cast. The film’s director, Malcolm Lee, has been talking about it for some time and finally announced his plan during a recent cast reunion dinner. JET: Any details you can dish on the movie? Well, we’re not shooting until late April in Toronto so I can’t say much, but everybody is really excited to revisit our stories and find out what happens next. Where is Jordan now? Did she get married? Did she break up a relationship? It’s like reading a great book; you want to see what the next chapter is. JET: You’ve been part of several iconic flicks, like Boyz n the Hood and Love Jones, but we hear that acting wasn’t always your dream career? I wanted to be a pediatrician. One of the most life-changing challenges I experienced growing up was realizing that there simply wasn’t enough money for me to go to college. So I decided to focus on working. I promised that I’d give myself one year from the day I graduated from high school to make moves in the business. I was acting since I was 15, and I really wanted to help my mom, who was struggling. JET: But your current career path isn’t necessarily the most stable… That’s very true. Actors only have job security from the time we’re on set until they say cut. But, deep down inside I knew it would work out for me. Luckily, I was also naive. What’s the saying? Ignorance is bliss. I had a wonderful acting coach who didn’t focus on fail-ure, only working. JET: Speaking of success, you’ve been in a relationship with former pro-basketball player Ime Udoka for almost three years. How do you make it work… especially now that he lives in another state? Ime and I are very much a family. We’re both committed to being good to each other and being great parents. He operates on faith, and we share that. If not, it would be difficult to maintain with him working as a coach in San Antonio. The challenge is the times when I’m exhausted and here with the kids by myself. I have homework, bath time, dinner, laundry and all the other things that every mother has to do because, in essence, I’m physically a part-time single mom. We’re glad to hear they’re still going strong. Nia got her a good one huh!
