Vaneli Pix: Celebrity Makeovers

2007-11-30T15:36:00.000-05:00

As an artist, I am always faced with the challenge of creating an image that is consistent with my music while staying true to who I am as a person. Over the years we've seen many artists, from Christina Aguilera to Pink to Alicia Keys change their personal style and image as they have evolved as artists.

Remember the song by India Arie "I Am Not My Hair"? Ironically, most image makeovers start from the head first. Below are some of my favorite (and not so favorite) hair makeovers from female artists and actresses.

Alicia Keys On The Tyra Banks Show

2007-11-29T16:02:00.000-05:00

Alicia Keys recently went on the Tyra Banks show and talked about personal issues that almost caused her to have a nervous breakdown and eventually going to Eygpt alone. I heart Alicia!

Lebron Is My Hero

2007-11-29T00:39:00.000-05:00

I know I know, he's injured but nevermind that (or the fact that he bites his nails), this article more than makes up for it...

Paris Legging Mishap

2007-11-28T16:52:00.000-05:00

I was browsing the net earlier and realized alot of celebs are wearing leggings this season. Lindsey Lohan and Cassie were some of my favorites. Although, I cringed at the thought, I took the plunge and wore a pair of black leggings with a shirt to promote my new single at Chris Brown's album release party last month.

Paris Hilton is so cute. I came across a pic of her in a lingerie top and pantyhose and I truly believe she had every intention on wearing black leggings with that top.

Don't try this ~~at home~~ out in public

Chris Brown Spotting

Always Be Paparazzi Ready

2007-11-27T02:20:00.000-05:00

As an up and coming singer, someone once told me to "always be paparazzi ready". I always thought, is it that serious? geez! Can I grab some pancakes in my baseball cap?

And to think people get paid big bucks to capture a pic of a celebrity dining with no make up and a mouth full of food. Boo!

Rihanna still rocks

Your Guess Is As Good As Mine

2007-11-26T02:27:00.000-05:00

A friend offered me 20 bucks if I could tell them what Serena Williams was doing out in London with Common recently. Um, well her panty hose are a little busted up but she doesn't look hurt. Common's lips look a little glossy but I doubt if they were lip locking. Hmmm, let's just say they look like they are about to make one hell of a collaboration. Who knew Serena could sing???

Where's my 20?

Pretty Fighting Pretty

2007-11-25T18:30:00.000-05:00

I Love New York 2 is one of those shows you swear you shouldn't be watching. Should I even admit I watch it? Somehow VH1 sucked me into a marathon session that managed to hook me.

Anyway, here's a clip of Pretty getting into a "f--k you" match with New York and then tried to fight her when she started bullying his sister.

Seeing him swing his arms faster than a ceiling fan sure didn't help squash the gay rumors that started on the show. Pretty fuuuuunnny. I wonder why VH1 left this clip out...

My Nails Match My Shoes

2007-11-25T14:20:00.000-05:00

I’ve been kind've sleeping on Christina Louboutin but this black Avedere Suede boot is a stunner for this season. Gotta love the lace ups with the signature red heel. Definitely on top of my Holiday wish list. His Damage: $1,120.00.

I just found out that there is a Louboutin Manicure that matches these shoes! It involves a dark polish on the top of the nail and applying a red coat on the underside of the nail. The idea seemed hot in a freaky Adam's Family sort've way...

I think I'll pass...

A Nude Wedding

2007-11-24T16:30:00.000-05:00

A couple in Sydney agreed to get married butt naked in exchange for all expenses being paid for by their local radio station. I couldn't imagine walking down the aisle naked with my Pops. ewwww! "Please Dad keep your eyes straight ahead...And moms stop looking at my husband's hindy"...

Avril's on a Budget

2007-11-23T16:23:00.000-05:00

Avril Lavigne flipped off the paparazzi after they caught her coming out of a 99 cent store. What's the biggie? It's alright to be frugal when you are spending Ur own money, right?

Robyn & Robin Thicke

2007-11-22T13:41:00.000-05:00

Rihanna (real name Robyn) and Robin Thicke has a Hawt Spread in this month's GQ Magazine. They are fierce in a forbidden fruit type of way ;-). Wouldn't it be weird if they were married? Robin & Robyn Thicke.
