Celebrity Fashion: Taiwan's Jay Chou

So far we only highlighted fashion from the west,there is nothing much from the Eastern world. So here I would like to share with you the Pop singer from Taiwan, Jay Chou's fashion. Jay Chou (traditional Chinese: 周杰倫; simplified Chinese: 周杰伦) (born 18 January 1979) is a World Music Award-winning Taiwanese musician, singer, producer, actor and director. In 1998, he was discovered in a talent contest where he showcased his piano and song-writing skills. Over the next two years, he was hired to compose for popular Chinese singers. Trained in classical music, he combines Chinese and Western music styles to produce songs that fuse R&B, rock, and pop genres, covering issues such as domestic violence, war, and urbanization.


Chou's compositions are loosely categorized as pop music. While many of his works fall into contemporary R&B, rap, and rock genres, the term "Chou Style" (traditional Chinese: 周氏風格; simplified Chinese: 周氏风格) has been popularized to describe his trademark cross-cultural music and his insistence on singing with relaxed enunciation. Taipei Times once described the meaning of "Chou Style": "In what has become the archetypal Chou style, Taiwan's favorite son blends pop, rap, blues and a smorgasbord of esthetic elements of world music to create his dream-like never-never land".

Eva Mendes Is in Rehab

Eva Mendes is currently taking some time off at Linday Lohan's former home - Cirque Lodge, a rehab center in Utah.

Men Skincare: Fundamental Guides

If you are the man that serious about skincare, then you are not alone. It wasn't so long ago that it was absurd to think of men focusing any attention at all on their skin care. Of course, they made sure to keep their faces washed and once in a while they would shave without complaining, but it was unusual to find a man who was worried about aging and wrinkles. Recently, though, more and more men are starting to admit that they too care about what their skin looks like. In fact, they care about it just as much as women do. They just don't seem to have as many products to choose from.

One of the major reasons that men are starting to take better care of their skin is that men are becoming more worried about their health. Healthier skin usually leads to a healthier lifestyle. Men and Women alike want to live longer and lead healthier lives. Having healthy skin is the first step in this direction.

Recent studies have shown that a man's skin is typically more sensitive than a woman's skin. This is not so surprising considering what women will put their skin through to keep it looking good. Women also lack that "protective" layer of facial hair, so their skin has to be a little bit tougher to stand up to environmental elements. Men's facial hair protects them from sun and can help keep the skin from drying out.

One of the reasons that a man's skin is typically more sensitive than a woman's skin is that, stereotypically speaking, they tend to spend more time outdoors. They also shave their faces. Shaving can cause the facial skin to become irritated, and if you read the ingredients on men's shave gel you will see that it contains moisturizers that have been added specifically to help ease the skin irritation that comes with shaving. This is also why razors now have four and five blades. The more blades a razor has, the easier it is on the skin.

Some think that this heightened sensitivity of men's skin is what causes them to have more wrinkles and to show the signs of aging sooner than women do. One has to wonder how long it will be before there are men's lines of anti-aging wrinkle creams on the market.

Paris dresses

Chiar daca in mod constant face gafe vestimentare (si nu numai), Paris este o trendsetteritza. Tinutele ei sunt copiate de o multime de fete, iar daca ea poarta un anumit tricou de exemplu, tricoul respectiv se va vinde in cel mai scurt timp.

Noua tunsoare a Rihannei

La lansarea liniei vestimentare create pentru H&M Rihanna si-a facut aparitia cu o noua tunsoare. Dupa ce anul trecut a renuntat la parul lung in favoarea unui bob, stilul ei a devenit unul dintre cele mai copiate hair styling-uri. Probabil asa se va intampla si de aceasta data.
