Get the Look: James Bond’s Bathing Trunks

For male James Bond fans, Daniel Craig’s homage to Ursula Andress’s infamous bikini scene may have been a little disappointing (especially in comparison to Halle Berry’s take), but not so for his female fans! In fact, ladies have been quick to snap up Craig’s snug swim trunks for the Bonds in their lives. Part of the Grigio Perla men’s range of celeb-favorite Italian brand La Perla, the trunks have proved to be so popular that UK department store Selfridges’ quickly sold out the coveted item shortly after Casino Royale‘s release. Reportedly, Craig picked out the trunks for the film himself — get your own pair for $87 by calling 1-866-LAPERLA (six-pack abs not included).

Joanie’s Take: The Inside Scoop on America’s Next Top Model

Model and America’s Next Top Model alum (cycle 6) Joanie Dodds gives a weekly insider’s view on the hit show.

This was the episode of everyone crying! It goes to show you how hard this competition is and how it can get to you on the inside. The episode kicked off with Tyra talking to the remaining five about harsh realities. Come on, we all know she really wants to see who is weak and what she can do to push all of their buttons. Not that there isn’t truth in it, though. Harsh criticisms are part of the game and of the industry, and you have to build that shell to make it far. Maybe Tyra does really want them to become strong.

Clay Aiken: Do You Like His Hair Long or Short?

Forget the hand-over-mouth scandal! We want to talk about Clay Aiken’s hair! He may have ditched the darker color, but he is still experimenting with his hairstyle. In fact, since the last time we talked about it, it doesn’t look like the singer has cut his hair at all! At the lighting of the UNICEF Snowflake this weekend in NYC, Aiken emerged with a shoulder-grazing style that is a stark contrast to the super-short crop that he had on American Idol. We definitely like him better back to his natural color, but we can’t decide how we feel about this longer look. Tell us: Do you like Clay’s hair long or short? Should he cut his hair?
