It has been said that a pretty face is a passport. But it's not, it's a visa, and it runs out fast.

The Feminist Me says that a woman's right to her own body should be inviolate at all times, free from fear of peeping paps.

Having 'best friends' is - at least for me - as outdated and small-minded a concept as the idea of 'Sunday best clothes.'

But just think what a boring, bread-and-milk world this would be without the boastful.

I just have a real problem with people who seek to portray fatness or thinness as moral concepts.

I'll declare my own interest right here at the start and admit that, like the vast majority of people, I find youthful looks appealing.

These women whose antics we smirk at good-naturedly in the pap-traps put themselves out there at least partly on their beauty; they are in showbiz, and showing what they've got is part of their business as much as it is for male show-ponies from the Chippendales to George Clooney.
