  • Why Do So Many People Hate Gwyneth Paltrow? Let Us Count the Ways

    By Lizbeth Scordo | omg! – Wed, Apr 24, 2013 4:48 PM EDT

    The world's most beautiful (and most hated!) woman. (Splash News)Gwyneth Paltrow may have just had the honor of world’s most beautiful woman bestowed upon her by People magazine, but she won another, less coveted, title recently: most hated celebrity.

    You probably get the "most beautiful" part: tall, thin, blond, perfect teeth, perfect skin. But if the "most hated" part has you scratching your head (who could hate the girl from "Shallow Hal" who used to date Brad Pitt and won an Academy Award?), allow us to explain.

    Thanks to Gwyneth’s recent stab at becoming a lifestyle/nutrition/fashion/travel/parenting expert with her personal blog, paid apps, multiple cookbooks, advice-laden interviews, and strong feelings about gluten, the mom of two has been sharing her tips and tricks with the world, proving along the way to be a bit out of touch with the way most of the population lives and landing herself a reputation as an elitist.

    No “I’m a celebrity, but I’m just like you, average working mom!” fakery here. More like "I’m a celebrity, but I’m just like you, wealthy person who can afford a personal trainer and is probably looking for a good organic wine bar to visit during your next jaunt to Paris."

    Read on for the top 10 examples of why the Oscar winner ticks off the rest of us.

    "Glee" may have been renewed for a couple more seasons, but when the musical TV series eventually leaves the airwaves, actress Naya Rivera may want to take the opportunity to get into a new business she seems to have a knack for … real estate.

    After purchasing a 3,300-square-foot Beverly Hills home last April for $1.475 million, the 26-year-old renovated it, put it on the market a month ago for $2.1 million, and -- volia! -- has already found a buyer and is now in escrow, according to real estate website Zillow.

  • Actress Lisa Rinna is one of those celebs who says what she thinks. And on the latest episode of "Sunday Dinner With ...," the 49-year-old shares plenty.

    She leaves hubby Harry Hamlin and their two kids at home and heads to her "bestie" Jana's house for a healthy dinner of organic chicken, veggies, and vegan brownies. The former soap star reveals why joining "Melrose Place" back in the '90s was the best decision she ever made, why the first two weeks she spent on "Celebrity Apprentice" were the worst of her life, and how she's dealt with rejection over the years.

    We may never know if the guys who participated in the canceled reality show "Ready For Love" ever found the women of their dreams, but Eva Longoria, the show's executive producer, is making one thing clear: They didn’t find love with her.

    Rumors have been swirling that one of the show's bachelors, 34-year-old entrepreneur Ernesto Arguello, has been dating Longoria, 38, thanks in part to a Life & Style story that reported the two were spotted leaving Los Angeles International Airport and driving around L.A. together and even quoted a "source" who said they are indeed dating.

    Longoria took to Twitter on Monday to set the record straight …

    “WHAT?! AGAIN? Sorry guys, still not dating @ernestoarguello Who are these "sources"??” she wrote.

    And the actress's rep told omg! the same thing: “Eva and Ernesto are not dating."

    RedfinLance Armstrong Buys 12,000-Square-Foot Lake Austin Home for $4.34 Million
    Plenty of people (including a little organization know as the U.S. Department of Justice) may be suing Lance Armstrong, but the disgraced pro cycler doesn’t seem to be all that concerned about preserving his savings account these days, and just dropped $4.34 million to upgrade to a bigger mansion on a larger plot of land in Austin, Texas, this week.
    The Austin-Statesman reported that Armstrong bought the new property, on Lake Austin, just a few days after selling the home he owned in Central Austin.

    A peek at the listing via Redfin shows the 5-bedroom, 6.5-bath home sits on 3.6 acres and hit the market last September with an asking price of $5 million. The new place is more than 4,000 square feet larger than the home he just sold, though it's unclear how much he got for his former property, which was once featured in Architectural Digest.

    Naya Rivera (Patrick Demarchelier/Allure)Another year, another one of Allure magazine's "Naked Truth" issues. Translation? A gaggle of female celebs strip down before stepping in front of the camera with strategically placed arms and legs, making the pics just revealing enough to be considered risqué, but not quite Playboy worthy.

    Last year, Debra Messing and Maria Menounos were among the ladies who were shot in the buff. This time around, the issue features a quartet of TV stars: Naya Rivera of “Glee,” "Cougar Town's" Christa Miller, "Nashville" actress Clare Bowen, and "Once Upon a Time" star Jennifer Morrison.

  • Why Isla Fisher Loves Her Post-Baby Belly

    By Lizbeth Scordo | omg! – Mon, Apr 15, 2013 6:25 PM EDT

    Isla Fisher on the cover of the May issue. (Gavin Bond/Fitness)At 5’2”, the tiny-framed Isla Fisher is the picture of petite (especially considering she’s often photographed with her 6’3” actor husband Sacha Baron Cohen), but the 37-year-old admits in the latest issue of Fitness magazine that certain body parts, er, ballooned when she packed on extra pounds for her part in the upcoming film "The Great Gatsby."

    "I gained weight for that role because Myrtle, the character I play, is supposed to be heavyset. So I ate lots of protein, and I gained 15 pounds. It mainly manifested itself in my boobs, which was very exciting. Sadly, that's gone now."

    In the interview the mom of two also documents the weight gain – and loss – she experienced during her pregnancies with daughters Olive and Elula, now 5 and 2.
