Vote! David Beckham’s Platinum: Love It or Hate It?

He already had the haircut to match his stylish wife Victoria, and now David Beckham has the color to match too! The natural blond unveiled a shocking platinum ‘do this week — reportedly dyed for a photoshoot. But, considering his well-documented affinity for changing up his hairstyle, maybe he’ll keep it around for a while. “It is a personal thing,” a Beckham pal tells PEOPLE. “It’s not the first time David has changed styles and not the last.” And why not keep it considering his move to L.A. is looming in the near future — maybe Posh gave him a few tips on trying to blend in. Tell us what you think of Beck’s new hair and vote below!

Spotted Shopping: Cameron, Reese and More!

CAMERON DIAZ, stopping by the Marc Jacobs store in New York City. And the actress had a successful visit — she left with a bounty of goods!

ASHLEE SIMPSON, leaving Ken Paves salon in Beverly Hills post-haircut with a heaping bag of UNITE products. The singer picked up a ton of shampoos and conditioners including the GO-365 Shampoo and Conditioner, as well as S-FREE Shampoo and the ADLIB Shaper to add texture to her hair. Plus, the younger Simpson also snagged some STRONGA Treatment and SOFTA Treatment to repair her hair.

Spider-Man 3 star KIRSTEN DUNST, leaving with a new summer dress after a trip to Isabel Marant in Paris’ St. Germain area. The actress has been in Europe to promote her new action flick which opens in the U.S. on May 4.

GABRIELLE REESE, engaging in a major shopping spree at Billion Dollar Babes‘ exclusive Diane von Furstenburg sale at the W Hotel Westwood. In fact, the athlete left with over $1000 in dresses!

JESSICA ALBA and her beau CASH WARREN, stopping by Los Angeles’ Milk Boutique. She was very quiet, an onlooker tells us as her beau picked up two Le Magnifique t-shirts. But Alba didn’t leave empty-handed. The actress snatched a Giulia Piersanti leopard belt, a Nation tank, sunglasses and a Le Magnifique tank.

REESE WITHERSPOON, finding her “solemates” with some new footwear at Sigerson Morrison. The actress bought five pairs of shoes – including three pairs of trendy gladiator sandals.

Would You Wear Jennifer Lopez’s Silver Eyeshadow?

Jennifer Lopez is having a major metallic moment — first she wore silver bell-bottoms, and now she’s got on super-sparkly silver eyeshadow!  At an event last night in Los Angeles, the white pantsuit-clad star showed off her twist on smoky eyes and pale lips.  We always think J. Lo looks great with dramatic eyes and nude gloss, but we’re still contemplating how we feel about the glitter effect. Tell us what you think: Would you wear J. Lo’s makeup?

Does Bathing Suit Shopping Stress You Out?

As our office fills up with racks of itsy-bitsy bikinis and photos of celebrities, like Lindsay Lohan, looking amazing on beach vacations flood our pages, my stress level keeps rising! Sure, if I looked like Lindsay in a bikini (all nine of them) I’d be more than happy to hit the stores. But in my current state of, uh, not quite summer-ready, the thought of trying on string bikinis in fluorescent lighting with unflattering mirrors makes me want to run and hide. For now, I am investigating more cute coverups like Cameron’s, until the gym becomes more of a daily reality. — Melissa Liebling-Goldberg

Tell us: Are you stressed about bathing suit shopping, too? Or are you ready to rock a bikini and hit the beach?

Kevin Federline: Fragrance Pitchman?

Add another line to his resume — Kevin Federline is the new pitchman for Axe body spray. And what qualifies him to speak for the brand? “Yeah, it’s cause I’m lucky with the girls,” Federline tells PEOPLE. “I was a fan of the product, and then they call and ask me to come down to the middle of Hollywood and jump in a giant spray can. I mean, this is a prime location, how can I say no?” And of course, it’s a cause near and dear to his heart. “I’m all about smelling good, if you’re not down with the personal hygiene, then you can’t roll with my crew.” After being told he was following in the well-groomed footsteps of former Axe pitchmen Ben Affleck and Nick Lachey, Federline decided that he would smell the best out of the three because “I’ve never smelled either one of those guys.” But he is open to sniffing other guys — after giving props to his bodyguard, Big Mike, for “always smelling good,” Federline tells PEOPLE that “no one wants to be around you if you smell bad.” Luckily for those around K-Fed, he’s got his Axe with him now wherever he goes.
