Caster Semenya, the 18-year-old athlete from South Africa who now holds the 800m champion title since August, continues to be at the center of a huge controversy regarding her true gender â€" and will remain so until the results for all tests she’s to undertake will return. In the meantime, Semenya, now turned national hero, has agreed to pose for the national glossy magazine YOU, which even deemed necessary that she undergo a complete makeover, as Times Online can confirm. The cover of YOU has Semenya in a black designer gown, arm laden with oversized bracelets, nails painted and hair done in curls, and includes the caption “Wow, look at Caster now!†The pages of the mag include even more photos â€" a four-page spread actually â€", which show the athlete trying on several looks, such as jeans and sparkly tops and other dresses. As expected, there is also an interview with Caster herself, who says just what any other 18-year-old girl in the world would say: that she!
likes to wear dresses and play dress-up, but doesn’t have enough time, and that she’d like to learn to do her own makeup instead of having people do it for her. “I am who I am and I am proud of myself. I’d like to dress up more often and wear dresses but I never get the chance. I’d a...

It seems that the PlayStation 3 Slim is having quite the impact on all the significant videogames markets. In Japan, the console is said by gaming magazine Famitsu to have moved around 150,000 units to gamers in the first three days. And now GamesIndustry.biz is saying that sales of the Sony made home gaming console have increased by 999% over one week in the United Kingdom, which is one of the most important markets in Europe.Dorian Bloch, who leads the Chart-Track market research firm, has stated that “The uplift on week 36 on week 35 is plus 999 per cent. We don't give out the hardware numbers, but never-the-less it's a very large increase.†The head of Sony Europe, Andrew House, also weighed in on the situation by saying that “I think what I've heard anecdotally is that this is the point people were waiting for - a redesigned model and, in Euros, a significant price reduction. That's people's cue to jump into the business.â€Comparatively, Chart-Trak also reports !
that the increase resulted from the price cut applied to the Xbox 360 Elite by Microsoft was only of about 43%.

As much as the media criticized First Lady Michelle Obama for some of her fashion choices in the past, the one thing everyone seems to agree upon is that she has wonderfully toned arms. Guesses have been made and they have all summed up to taking shots in the dark about what she does to maintain them in such great shape. Those who have wondered on the topic might stop their enquiries, because it’s Michelle’s personal trainer himself, Cornell McClellan, who’s now dishing out on the “secret†in a new interview with Women’s Health. Mrs. Obama is very dedicated to staying healthy and in top shape, so it’s no wonder she works out almost every day, most of the time with sessions scheduled to start at 5.30 in the morning, the trainer reveals. As research has also shown, working out in the morning is recommended, because it helps boost the mood and leads to an increased productivity â€" Mrs. Obama certainly knows that. “She’s truly committed herself to the impo!

HTTP:: Heidi Klum Unzips for Page Six Magazine
--------
Heidi Klum is part of the so-called “old†generation of models, in the sense that the 36-year-old mother of three continues to be one of the highest paid and appreciated female models of the moment. As we all know, by this age, most of them are already happily retired, pursuing other careers in the same field, of fashion, or perhaps living their life isolated from the world. Not Klum, though, who, pregnant with her fourth child now, happily unzips for the latest issue of Page Six Magazine and offers a wonderful insight into her enchanted life. The interview also touches upon such topics as her critics, designer Karl Lagerfeld in particular, who recently took several swings at the model and even her husband. As fans must know, Lagerfeld repeatedly said he didn’t know Klum personally, had never worked with her and did not care for her, but, for all he knew, she was too “fat†and plain (read: commercial) to cut it as a runaway model. Heidi addressed this uncalled-fo!
r attack on a couple of occasions, but, once more, she’s ready to show the world that she is of the opinion everyone is entitled to theirs, even if expressing it means bashing her. “I don’t know why [Karl] said that.
