Naomi Campbell ‘Fulfills a Childhood Fantasy’ in New Duran Duran Video

“I grew up dancing to Duran Duran,” Naomi Campbell tells PEOPLE, “running after them and waiting for them outside the BBC. They were my life — even though they never noticed me back then!”

They’re obviously noticing her now: Campbell plays frontman Simon Le Bon in the band’s new “Girl Panic!” video, a 10-minute clip that also stars “Supers” Cindy Crawford, Helena Christensen, Eva Herzigova and Simon’s wife Yasmin. The video premiered Monday at British Harper’s Bazaar‘s Women of the Year awards in London — and it’s safe to say it’ll be a big hit.

Get the Look: Brooke Charvet’s Side Braid

J.R. Martinez logged two perfect scores on Dancing with the Stars Monday night — and host Brooke Charvet‘s hair was looking pretty perfect, too, tied up in a sweet side-braid.

Just like last week, we asked the stylists at Hotheads how to achieve her look at home. Just follow these steps from stylist Sheenon Olson:

1. Start by making a ponytail on either the left or right side so that it cascades onto your shoulder.

2. Separate the ponytail into two pieces, then take a thin piece from the outside of the right and join it with the left. Reverse how you are holding the hair and switch hands, then take a thin piece from the outside of the left side and join it with the right.

3. Repeat these steps until the braid is as long as you desire, and secure with a hairband. For a more bohemian look pull the braid apart a bit (but not too much!) to give it a disheveled look.

Take a Sneak Peek at Carrie Underwood’s Latest Olay Commercial

Carrie Underwood is ready to lather up in her latest Olay commercial — but she’s skipping the soap and opting for cleanser. The singer — Wednesday night’s CMA Awards hostess — is breaking down beauty myths in her latest campaign for Olay, which debuts tonight during the CMA Awards on ABC.

“For my beauty prep, I like my skin to be really clean, but ‘squeaky clean’ isn’t the goal — that sound actually means your soap left residue behind on your skin,” she says in a release. “If you don’t have a healthy palette to work on, it won’t matter what you do. My skincare routine is … all about proper cleansing and sunscreen.”

Versace for H&M Debut Brings Blake, Jessica, Nicki — and Even Prince

Versace for H&M
Rex USA

Donatella Versace knows how to throw a party.

The designer debuted her much-anticipated line for H&M at a star-studded event in Manhattan on Tuesday night that included a full-length fashion show, a private concert by Prince and Nicki Minaj and some serious late-night shopping.

“The collection is fun,” Versace told PEOPLE as she headed into the bash. “It starts with the iconic moment, Gianni’s black leather and gold studs. Then there are the Miami prints that people know the best. I wanted to show them the real thing, and then it goes through the evolution of Versace from the prints to my collections up to today.

“I’m very happy tonight,” she added. “I didn’t expect such a turnout. I knew it would be exciting, but not like this.”

Dakota Fanning’s Marc Jacobs Ad Banned for Being Too Racy

Dakota Fanning‘s latest role has received a big thumbs-down in the U.K.

The actress’s recent magazine ad for Marc Jacobs’s Oh, Lola! perfume is too suggestive, Britain’s advertising watchdog has ruled, and must be pulled immediately, the BBC reports.

The ad in question shows the 17-year-old American actress in a thigh-length dotted dress with an oversize flower-topped bottle of Oh, Lola! resting between her legs.

The U.K.’s Ad Standards Authority determined that “the length of her dress, her leg and position of the perfume bottle drew attention to her sexuality. Because of that, along with her appearance, we considered the ad could be seen to sexualize a child.”

The ASA ruled that the ad was irresponsible, likely to cause “serious offense,” and must not appear again.

Emma Roberts: My Makeup Gets Confiscated by the TSA

Since she spends a lot of time flying between coasts to promote various projects, Emma Roberts keeps a big makeup bag on hand. But thanks to tight air security regulations, the actress has had to toss several of her favorite beauty products before takeoff in recent months.

“The amount of things that have been taken away from me on the plane because they’re liquids … it’s a lot,” Roberts told PEOPLE last week at a Johnson & Johnson event in New York City.

Since she prefers to keep her porcelain skin looking perfect, she gets around the rules with Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes. “Since they aren’t liquids, you can take them on the plane and just wipe your makeup off,” she said. “Even if I don’t wash my face — which is very rare — I always take off my makeup.”
