Allegedly, Soha Ali khan had gone to a beauty salon for undergone waxing session. However hidden cameras caught her without her clothes on.

Jimena Navarrette crowned Miss Universe 2010

Miss USA, Miss Japan and Miss Trinidad and Tobago grabbed eyeballs when they posed for the camera in body paint. Their topless poses didn’t help them. It didn’t cut any ice with the judges though. None of them made it to the Top 15. Instead, another Latino, Miss Mexico Jimena Navarrette, walked away with the Miss Universe 2010 crown.

India’s representative, Ushoshi Sengupta failed to make any impact. No surprises there. The biggest noise we heard over her was the criticism over her ambiguous evening gown.

Miss Mexico piped the crowd favourite - Miss Philippines Venus Raj to the crown. Venus Raj has been ranked high consistently on online polls. The beauty lost out in the QA round though. She fumbled with her answer (barely gave one actually). She was nervous and her body language and answer revealed it.

Miss Mexico on the other hand, spoke confidently on the impact of Internet usage on youngsters. The right family values would help youngsters rise above the challenge of unsupervised internet usage. The judges lapped it up.

In the sub-pageant category, Miss Thailand Fonthip Watcharatrakul won the Best National Costume as well as Miss Photogenic.

Rani to tie the knot in November

Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif may have replaced Rani Mukerji as Aditya Chopra’s lucky mascot, but as far as the filmmaker’s personal life is concerned, Rani is still the reigning queen. According to the latest buzz, the Bong beauty has already decided to enter wedlock in November this year, but, the name of the lucky man hasn’t been disclosed yet.

However, since Rani’s allegedly dated Aditya Chopra in the past, it is being believed that Rani’s special someone should be none other than the talented filmmaker.

Grapevine says that Rani is expected to announce her marriage plans performing the traditional Mukerji family ‘Durga Puja’, which will take place in the month of October.

Till now, both Aditya and Rani have maintained their silence on their much-hyped link-up. Sources reveal that Aditya divorced his first wife to legalise his relationship with this Bong beauty.

Well, let’s see what happens. But we’re sure Rani must be desperately waiting for some excitement in her life.

Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts and Jessica Biel - riskiest celebs to search

If you're looking for Cameron Diaz, Julia Roberts or Jessica Biel online, then you must go through this post.

The movie stars top the latest list of the most dangerous celebrities to search for online, according to new research by computer-security software maker McAfee Inc. It's far from an Oscar, but landing atop McAfee's annual list carries a distinction all its own: It means that criminals believe those celebs are the perfect lures to sucker people into visiting malicious websites.

Clicking onto strange sites is sketchy to begin with. But many people do, and their computers get infected. Once a computer is infected, criminals can steal victims' online banking passwords, e-mail passwords, and do other kinds of nasty deeds. Attaching famous people's names to malicious sites is a well-worn ruse, to fool people looking at search results into thinking they're heading to a legitimate site.

The other most-dangerous celebrities to look for online, according to McAfee, are Gisele Bundchen, Brad Pitt, Adriana Lima, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, Heidi Klum, Penelope Cruz and Anna Paquin.

McAfee performed its tests in July using the company's technology for identifying dangerous websites. The rankings measure the likelihood that someone looking for things such as photos and videos of those celebrities would land on a malicious site.

Salman Khan and Govinda blow over Sonakshi Sinha

Once touted as best friends, Salman and Govinda can’t see eye to eye any longer. The two actors have reportedly fallen apart and it’s all owing to Salman’s latest fixation with Sonakshi Sinha. Buzz has it that Govinda, who was counting on Salman to pave way for his daughter Narmada’s debut in Bollywood, is increasingly peeved with the actor as he has snubbed Narmada to give Sonakshi a larger than life start in Bollywood.

According to a source, “Narmada is as beautiful and talented as Sonakshi. Last year, Salman was very much involved with grooming Narmada. However, after he started shooting for ‘Dabangg’, he has eyes and ears for Sonakshi and not Narmada.”

And Govinda, though feels cheated, has refrained from voicing his feeling as he feels indebted to Salman for helping him get ‘Partner’ in 2007.

But a lot has changed between the two pals now, as under ideal circumstances, Narmada should have signed a movie or two by now.

“There was a time when Govinda used to frequently visit Salman’s house, Galaxy Apartments at Bandstand. Not anymore. After working on ‘Partner’, both actors were almost inseparable and loved being with each other, be it at home or even in autorikshaws, out for a spin in the middle of the night,” added the source.

Paris Hilton enjoying a new romance

The latest buzz about the celebrities say that US socialite Paris Hilton is enjoying a new romance with Las Vegas nightclub owner Cy Waits and the pair are said to be smitten with each other.

The hotel heiress, who has been single since splitting from ‘The Hills’ star Doug Reinhardt earlier this year, has been on several romantic dates with Las Vegas nightclub owner Cy Waits and the pair are said to be smitten with one another.

Hilton and Waits apparently couldn’t keep their hands off each other as Paris shot a new commercial for Devassa Beer in Long Beach, California, and one onlooker noted, "They are clearly enjoying every minute of their new relationship and aren’t afraid to show their feelings and affection for one another."

Hilton, who has previously dated Benji Madden, Rick Salomon, and model Jason Shaw, recently revealed she doesn’t want a famous boyfriend and is on the look out for a more low-key romance.

"It’s really hard in my position just being in a relationship, because so much goes along with it. The media are constantly making up stories and it’s just hard to know if you can trust a guy who has fame," Hilton said.

"I’d rather be with someone who’s not in the public eye - I think it just makes it easier, and I don’t know there’s so much that comes along with it. I’d rather be with someone who’s not in this world," she added.

Naomi Campbell gave "blood diamonds" to Mandela's charity

Supermodel Naomi Campbell, while testifying at the war crimes trial of former Liberian President Charles Taylor, said that that she gave alleged ‘blood diamonds’ to the head of Nelson Mandela’s children’s charity.

The catwalk queen was quizzed about claims made by actress Mia Farrow that Taylor gave the model an uncut diamond following a dinner party hosted by Nelson Mandela in South Africa in 1997.

Giving evidence at The Hague, Campbell admitted that she was given a few ‘dirty-looking pebbles’.

The model then claimed that she had given the uncut diamonds to Jeremy Ractliffe, the director of the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund, the following day intending that he use them to help fund the charity’s projects.

A spokesman for the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund, set up by the former South African president in 1995, said that Campbell’s evidence was "of great concern".

"We don’t have any record of the diamonds. Mr Ractliffe is among our trustees so he would have indicated if such a thing existed. We have it on record, we have made a statement to say there’s no such record of diamonds," said a source.

Ractliffe refused to comment on Campbell’s claims, saying "The matter is sub judice so I am not saying anything."

Asked about the fund’s statement that it never received the diamonds or money from their sale, he replied: "The fund is correct."

Campbell arrived at the courthouse in The Hague surrounded by police escorts.

Taylor, 62, is accused of trading in ‘blood diamonds’ to fund a brutal and bloody war carried out by rebels in Liberia’s neighbouring Sierra Leone.
