Jennifer Aniston as Barbra Streisand in Harper’s Bazaar: A Renaissance Woman

Can Jennifer Aniston really pull off looking like Barbra Streisand? Not a question you might have thought about before now, but in posing for Harper’s Bazaar , Jen pays homage to some of the living legend’s famous poses. We’re all thinking it: Why pay tribute to Barbra in the first place? “Barbra inspires me because there isn’t anything she hasn’t done that she wanted to do,” Aniston tells the magazine. “She’s a true renaissance woman.” Here’s Jen as herself, and as Barbra on two versions of the cover: Jen also says she can relate to Barbra. “[Barbra and I] are people who have been put in the spotlight, for better or for worse, and you just keep riding, and you keep overcoming,” she says. Nice. You just keep riding, Jen. After all, if there’s anyone out there who can withstand loneliness, heartbreak, 37 bad rom-coms and 249 foiled bids to steal Brad back , it’s you.

Anna Kournikova’s Tennis Cleavage Outshines Katy Perry’s Hipster Boobs

Here’s Anna Kournikova on the Graham Norton Show the other day giggling and laughing and teasing us with her tennis hottie cleavage. I’ve always loved her and the fact that Katy Perry is also on the show and I hardly even notice her hipster boobs because Anna is there stealing the spotlight, makes me love her even more. I don’t know who Graham Norton is, but he’s a lucky bastard for getting to snuggle on the couch with these two hotties. I hate him. more pictures of Anna Kournikova and Katy Perry here

Blanket Jackson Goes Bonkers on YouTube

Michael Jackson’s children have remained largely out of the spotlight since the music icon’s death, making these newly-discovered videos all the more surprising.

Risk of Japan going bankrupt is real, analysts say

Greece's debt problems may currently be in the spotlight but Japan is walking its own financial tightrope, analysts say, with a public debt mountain bigger than that of any other industrialised nation. Public debt is expected to hit 200 percent of GDP in the next year as the government tries to spend its way out of the economic doldrums despite plummeting tax revenues and soaring welfare costs for its ageing population. Based on fiscal 2010's nominal GDP of 475 trillion yen, Japan's debt is estimated to reach around 950 trillion yen — or roughly 7.5 million yen per person. Japan “can't finance” its record trillion-dollar budget passed in March for the coming year as it tries to stimulate its fragile economy, said Hideo Kumano, chief economist at Dai-ichi Life Research Institute. “Japan's revenue is roughly 37 trillion yen and debt is 44 trillion yen in fiscal 2010, ” he said. “Its debt to budget ratio is more than 50 percent.” more at link… added by: WakeUpPeople

Malin Akerman And Her Sexy Face

You don’t see Malin Akerman on the site very often, but if she keep making “O” faces like this at more events, I will be happy to keep posting her. I’d also be happy if she showed just a little more cleavage and maybe some booty, but Malin will eventually learn the game. She’s relatively new to the spotlight and needs some training. Call me.

Robert Pattinson Tries to Remain a Mystery

Ready for another onslaught of Robert Pattinson? With Eclipse coming out on June 30, the reluctant star will likely be gracing the cover of magazines and making the media rounds in the very near future. For starters? He spoke to Great Britian’s The Daily Mirror this month. The interview didn’t elucidate anything particularly newsworthy or new about the actor, as Pattinson once again noted how scary life in the spotlight can be for him. “You start getting a bit paranoid,” Robert said . “Looking around when you’re walking down the street, in case you get mobbed by teenage girls… I spend a lot of time trying to figure out how to not be seen.” Fortunately for women everywhere, Pattinson hasn’t accomplished this goal. In an ideal world, “no one finds out where you’re staying,” Pattinson said. “If people aren’t following you, or outside a restaurant if you have dinner there… then it’s great.” As for the inevitable Kristen Stewart question? Robert was typically mum on the subject of his rumored girlfriend, simply saying: “It’s difficult either way. When the spotlight seems centered on you, the best thing is to remain as much of a mystery as you can.” Still, Pattinson is willing to let one piece of information slip – and it will make him even more beloved in the eyes of females around the world. He says: “I really like The Notebook .” Come on, man. That’s just not fair. Give other guys at least some chance!
