Chris Brown And Drake Offered $10M for Ring Fight

Chris Brown and Drake have been offered $10 million to fight each other in a boxing ring. Promoters have offered $9 million to the winner of the match and $1 million to the loser, making it the biggest celebrity boxing match in history.

Damon Feldman, owner of Celebrity Boxing Federation, and Alki David, a wealthy entrepreneur, originally offered $1 million for the fight, but later realised that wouldn't be enough to grab the stars' attentions.

David said: "The audience needs their imagination captured as much as the fighters do. These are two very important rap artists who will only do this for a big ticket number. "This is something that should be attractive enough to get them in the ring." They presented two oversize cheques during their announcement in Beverly Hills.

The plan is for the rappers to fight it out over three one-minute rounds in Las Vegas and if there is no clear winner, an online audience will decide who wins. The idea came after a nightclub brawl involving the pair led to an innocent girl being hit with a bottle and needing 16 stitches, amongst other victims. The 'Beautiful People' singer also sustained a bottle cut to his chin during the argument at New York nightclub W.i.P this month (13.06.12).

Damon said: "Instead of doing it in a bar fight, they can get paid." Chris' representative told E! News: "We collectively have never heard from these people. This is a tacky PR campaign by these people using Chris and Drake."

Dabangg 2 Accident

According to a new report Salman Khan had a narrow escape himself at the accident site on Dabangg 2 set on Saturday, June 23, and the photog Ajay S, who continues to be hospitalized, has serious multiple injuries.
Total three crewmen suffered injuries but Ajay was worst hit.
TOI reports that the photographer damaged nine ribs, fractured his elbow at three places, and injured the pinna of his ear. He needed immediate hospitalization and later underwent surgery.
Ajay underwent one surgery on Wednesday to repair his elbow and the other on Thursday to stitch up the pinna of his ear. The ribs will need a long time to heal.
Ajay, younger brother of Salman's friend Munna S, was newly inducted on set for still photography of the film.
Salman is footing the medical expenses.
Here's hoping for no further accidents on the set.

Katy Perry has no regrets in life

Katy Perry says she never regrets anything because she always learns from her mistakes and experiences.
The 27-year-old singer, who split from husband Russell Brand in December after a 14-month-long marriage, said she has learnt valuable lessons from whatever has happened in her life, a media report said.
“I think that it was a lesson learned. And that’s what’s most valuable. People always ask me, ‘What is it that you regret?’ And I say, ‘nothing, because I could not buy what I’ve learned.’ And I apply those things to my life I learn.
And hopefully, hopefully it helps me to be a better human in the future and make better choices,” he said.
The singer had previously said she hasn’t lost hope in love despite her split from Brand.
“I’m going to let love lead the way, always. And I was born with this blind — blind ambition, and it’s kind of gotten me here to this point. And I think that I’ll stick to it.

Kelly Osbourne I am in love

Kelly Osbourne, who posted a snap on her twitter page, showing herself kissing boyfriend, Matthew Mosshart, has proclaimed that she is “in love”.
The ‘Fashion Police’ host has remained largely single since splitting with fiance Luke Worrall, two years ago, following claims that he had cheated on her.
The singer also claimed that she is proud of her relationship with Mosshart, Contactmusic reported.
“I’m in love and I don’t care who knows about it,” she tweeted.
The couple were first romantically linked earlier this year, and it was claimed they met last summer at the wedding of Kate Moss to The Kills rocker Jamie Hince, who is the bandmate of Matthew’s sister Alison Mosshart.“Kelly is dating Matthew Mosshart. They met at Kate Moss’ wedding and are very much in love. Kelly has learned from her previous relationships and wanted to keep this one quiet for as long as possible. She’s never been happier,” a source said at the time.
The duo made their first public appearance as a couple at a Los Angeles party on Wednesday night.
Mosshart has reportedly met Osbourne’s parents Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne.
“Matthew is the first guy Kelly has ever brought home that every single one of her friends and family like. And he’s also the first boyfriend with whom she’s had a close relationship with his family,” the source said.

Russell to play Rupert Murdoch

Crowe is reportedly in line to portray media tycoon Rupert Murdoch in a new film.
The ‘Gladiator’ star is tipped to take on the role of the media mogul in a movie based on ‘Good Times, Bad Times’, the memoirs of former Sunday Times editor Harold Evans, a media report said.
“You have to be brave to play someone like Murdoch. Russell can do it,” a source said.
Actor Colin Firth is believed to be up for the role as Harold, but no deals are yet in place.
“The film will be a drama, either for the big screen or television. It is very early days as the option deal with Harry was only just completed. No actors or even writers have been signed up yet,” said Leon Lecash, creative director of the film.

Madhuri Dixit honoured with platinum diva award

“It might be my millionth award but it is important to me as it shows that people still think of me,” said Madhuri Dixit Nene as she was honoured with the platinum diva award for excellence in the field of acting.
The 45-year-old Bollywood diva, who has been in the industry for more than two decades now, said she achieved this position in the industry with a lot of hardwork and is happy that people still think of her as a great actress.
“Thank you for the honour. I am very proud. This award proves that even today people think of me as someone substantial and with integrity. I have been here due to a lot of hard work and its wonderful to know that people see me in that light,” said Madhuri, who was accompanied by her doctor husband Shriram Nene to Planman Media’s Powerbrands Hall of Fame awards held here last night.
Former Miss Universe and Bollywood actress Sushmita Sen was also honoured with the woman entrepreneur award for running her beauty pageant organisation, I Am She.
“This is the first time in 18 years in showbiz that I am getting an award for being an entrepreneur. I am very grateful. It has been a journey for me. I won Miss Universe in 1994, got to do my first film ‘Dastak’ as an actor and now I receive my first entrepreneur award,” the 36-year-old said.
The Hall of Fame rising star male and female awards were given to “Ekk Deewana Tha” actor Prateik Babbar and “Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl” actress Parineeti Chopra respectively.
“I don’t mean to show off but this is my 15th award this year and it sure feels great. Just a year ago I was not even planning to become an actress, always dreamed of becoming a banker but I guess destiny plays its role,” Parineeti said.
Veteran actor Tom Alter was honoured for his exemplary contribution to Indian theatre while celebrity chef Vikas Khanna was awarded as India Ki Shaan for his culinary skills.

Sonam Kapoor: Insanely Stylish & Beautiful at 'The Pure Concept' Brand Launch

Sonam Kapoor looked breathtaking in a Dolce & Gabbana Tuxedo suit and ruffle-collar blouse at the launch of a home furnishing collection at Mehboob Studios in Bandra, Mumbai on Friday, June 29, 2012.
As far as styling goes, it doesn't get any better. Sonam, 27, nailed it with her attire, hair do, make-up and effervescence.
She was at the event with Abhay Deol to support The Pure Concept range by designer duo Dalbir Singh and Chanya Kaur.
Abhay was dressed sporty chic: faded jeans, black collar shirt and grey suede lace up shoes. Earlier in the day, he had attended cousin sister Esha Deol's wedding.
Sonam's ensemble was inspired by men fashion - black lace-back Tuxedo jacket, white ruffle collar blouse accented with a black flower pin and satin waist cropped leggings.
The poplin long sleeve blouse has a multi-layer ruffle that shapes a face-framing collar. The fitted cropped jacket has an unexpected Chantilly lace back and tonal satin trim. The form fitting leggings added lengths to her pin and set off her figure.
She accessorized with coral Christian Louboutin pumps and light jewelry.
Her hair echoed the 1940s with a front victory roll. The sleek top and perfectly structured ponytail was reminiscent of a old times pinup girl.
She matched the dramatic hair with equally dramatic makeup: striking red lipstick, smokey eyes and wash of pink blush left us mesmerized.
We wondered if any other Bollywood style maven could have pulled off the bold styling. Nope! We don't think so.
Explaining the look, Sonam's stylist Tanya Ghavri told Sawfnews.com exclusively:
"The first thing we kept in mind when I styled her for the press con was luxury, chic, classic!"
"When we tried the tux we just knew that was it, it had the right amount of attitude, drama and was event appropriate."
"The hair I knew had to be something to take the look up and it surely did! Sonam is a dream:)"
Sonam and Abhay met at the event with a warm hug and posed cheerily together for photogs, quashing all rumors of a rift between the two post their first film together, Aisha (2010). The two will be soon seen in Aanand L Rai's Raanjhanaa.

Sanjay Dutt Paired As Baddie With Shahid Kapoor in Bejoy Nambiar's Next

Sanjay Dutt

Bejoy Nambiar's yet to be titled headlining Shahid Kapoor has got Sanjay Dutt on board in a villainous role.
"Bejoy is known to make edgy films and the lead antagonist was one of the most vital characters in the film. After much debate, Bejoy thought of Sanjay Dutt for the role and met him a fortnight back," an insider told Mid-Day.
Sanjay Dutt, reportedly loved his part and gave his instant nod.
The role has earned him a paycheck of Rs10 crore, says the insider.
Nambiar is guarded about the genre of the film. He is currently busy filming for David featuring Tabu, South star Vikram and Neil Nitin Mukesh and will start this film only after he completes that.
Sanjay and Shahid earlier appeared together in Mahesh Manjrekar's Vaah! Life Ho Toh Aisi! (2005) in which Sanjay plays a kind-hearted Yamraaj.
Sanjay is currently filming for Soham Shah's gangster flick Sher in Rajasthan, with Vivek Oberoi as the other lead.
Shahid will soon get busy with Maneesh Sharma's next.
With two strong actors like Sanjay and Shahid, the movie should prove to be HOT.

Kajol Newly Svelte & Stylish, Bags Comeback Role

Kajol has been looking slimmer and more stylish lately, and it turns out that she is poised to make a comeback cameo appearance in Karan Johar's directorial, Student Of The Year featuring three new comers.
Kajol, 37, will feature in a song which is currently being shot in Mumbai, styled by Manish Malhotra, who is also the designer for the film's headlining pair.
"For the cameo, Kajol will be attired in a long, black glamorous outfit. Karan has always considered Kajol and Shah Rukh as his lucky mascots. So this time too, for his film Student Of The Year, he wanted Kads to do a special appearance and she readily agreed," a source told TOI.
The film is a joint production of Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan and features Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt in lead roles.

In the meantime, she has been doing what she really enjoys doing - reading books!

Deepika Padukone Reveals Her Bangin Bikini Body Secrets

Deepika Padukone Bikini Body Secrets

Deepika Padukone looks insanely hot sprawled on a beach in a read bikini in the promos of her upcoming film Cocktail. Those delectable curves that she flaunts in the film required a lot of hard work, even for Deepika who was a model and sportsperson before she took to films.
Deepika, 26, says she changed her diet and took up Pilates to get into shape well before filming for Cocktail started, and she stayed on course through the shoot.
Deepika plays Veronica, a strong but dark individual in the film.
"Veronica is a super confident girl who flaunts her attitude. She is affable, passionate, and sometimes a fiery person, who lives life the way she wants to and not the way society expects her to," Deepika explains to the TOI. "She's had a troubled childhood, so it's her escape in a sense. Veronica has difficulty expressing her deepest feelings."
Deepika says she is like Veronica in the midst of people that she knows well, but very mellow and introverted with others.
"Keeping Veronica's style and body language in mind, I had to be in top shape. I started Pilates and changed my diet. Even while we were filming in London and Cape Town, I got myself a local Pilates trainer and worked out every night after shooting, no matter how late we finished. There were days when we would all go out for dinner and while everyone else was digging into their dessert, I would just sit and watch," Deepika told TOI.
"It required a lot of discipline. Today, after seeing the results, I feel like it was all worth the effort."
Deepika is currently filming for Abbas Mustan's Race 2 and she will reportedly have equally hot looks in the film, a bikini shot is likely too.

Jiah Khan Exotic at 'The Pure Concept' Brand Launch

Jiah Khan Sexy Dress

Jiah Khan worked her hotness in an indigo Zara top and a golden Anaikka by Kanika Saluja skirt at the launch of a home furnishing collection at Mehboob Studios in Bandra, Mumbai on Friday, June 29.
Jiah, 24, looked crazily cute and sexy pairing a demure long sleeve silk blouse with an edgy metallic mini skirt.
The easy fit blouse featured a deep V neckline, button front and long sleeves which she wore rolled up to beat the Mumbai heat. The high waisted slim fit skirt ended at upper thighs and was fully covered with intricate golden metallic embellishments.
She accessorized with cross strap tan sandals accented with golden studs and Armoire by Jessie S Label gold jewels consisting of stud earrings, delicate necklace, a textured ring and two thick bangles.
We can let a secret out - she started out wearing golden pumps but due to heavy rain she had to change into the open toe heels.
Her enviable long tresses were side swept and cascaded down her right shoulder.
Her muted makeup let the stellar skirt and her splendid stems hog attention: Bronzed smokey eyes, lashings of mascara, coral lipgloss and bronzer to add sheen to her youthful skin, and black nail polish.
Jiah was styled by celebrity stylist Maneka Harisinghani. She says 'modest glamour' was the theme of her look and she achieved it well by pairing Zara top with exquisite handcraft by Kanika Saluja.
"Styling has somewhere slowed me down, I have learnt to stop and look, look closely and appreciate details. Anaikka's workmanship and commitment to quality makes my heart happy."
"For this appearance,I have mixed luxury and hi street to achieve' modest glamour'."

The Real Life Barbie Valeria Lukyanova Disappeared Mysteriously! A Hoax ?

Valeria Lukyanova, a 21-year-old Ukrainian model, has turned herself into a real-life Barbie.

As you can see from the photos, Lukyanova has got the long, straight blonde hair, the perfect ivory skin, the wide-eyed look and the heart-shaped mouth. Even more unbelievable, however, is her tiny, apparently carved-out waist and her disproportionally large breasts. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to claim that Lukyanova comes close to real-life Barbie proportions.

Plastic surgeon experts beleive that Valeria paid over $800,000 to look exactly like Barbie. So it's not out of the realm of possibility.

There are people who beleive that Lukyanova's Barbie looks are the result of excessive make-up and digital photo editing technology.

There are also others who beleive that the Real Life Barbie is a hoax. They claim that this woman is not even real and behind her image there is someone who has an obsession with a plastic doll. He loves to take pictures of her and make videos that seem real.

The truth is that many people were impressed by the Real Life Barbie and some expressed their desire to communicate with her via web camera or get an interview with her and she always denied those offers...Just for the record, I took a look today at Valeria's tumblr and it does not exist...In its place, there is a tumblr called: "Blog Finances" and it is written in French...What does that mean? Did Valeria strangely disappeared and the real person behind "her" account reveals his true identity?

Erin Andrews Leaves ESPN: FOX Aggressively Pursues Her !

Erin Andrews is leaving ESPN potentially for Fox and its budding college football coverage. Richard Deitsch of "Sports Illustrated", who has been all over Erin Andrews potential defection from ESPN since March, wrote that Fox is "aggressively pursuing" Andrews.

Fox has declined to comment, but ESPN wished Andrews all the best on her future accomplishments.

It has to be mentioned that Andrews has had a meteoric rise to popularity in the last couple years after she re-signed with ESPN. She was given the big opportunity to host the first hour of the network's popular "College Football GameDay". She also made an appearnace as a correspondent for "Good Morning America", performed interviews from the red carpet for the "2011 Oscars", showed her dancing moves on "Dancing with the Stars" and was even mentioned in the inaugural episode of Aaron Sorkin's new HBO media drama: "The Newsroom."

We have to admit that Andrews made sideline reporting not only sexy but also smart and sports fans greatly appreciated that. No matter where Erin lands, she will undeniably bring a wide audience with her.

What do you think of Erin Andrews leaving ESPN?

Tom Cruise Nose

Tom Cruise has apparently had a nose job (rhinoplasty).

Judging by the before and after photos there are noticeable changes in the size and shape of Tom Cruise's nose.

Plastic surgeon Dr. John Di Saia quoted as saying: "I’ve seen images of him as a younger man. He seems to have had a nose or two."

The nose job may just have made Tom's career and whoever was Tom's plastic surgeon was undoubtedly highly talented and skilled.

His new nose fits his face perfectly and unlike other celebrity nose jobs where both the bridge and the tip of the nose is made smaller, in the Tom Cruise nose job only the bridge is made smaller.

While earlier, his bridge was bigger, it has been shortened. Along with this his entire nose has been made more sophisticated and elegant. Certainly the end product is truly great (this is the reason many others demand the Tom Cruise nose job), one which completely suits him.

What do you think of Tom Cruise's nose job? Are there significant differences in Tom's nose now compared to the past?

Katie Holmes And Tom Cruise Divorce: Huge Tax Problems For Tom Cruise !

According to sources close to the pair, Katie Holmes' decision to file for divorce in New York may have created huge tax problems for Tom Cruise.

As it was said on previous posts, Katie filed divorce documents in NYC, in large part because she wants sole legal custody of Suri. The reason why she filed for divorce in NYC is because New York courts are way more likely to grant Katie sole legal custody and control over child-rearing decisions than California courts.

But the problem here is that ( according to sources connected with the couple ) Tom has been trying to do everything legally within his power to avoid strong ties to New York City because the tax rates are ridiculously high and he does not want any appearance that he or Katie have been living there.

There are documents which show Tom deeded their NYC apartment to Katie last August and it was reportedly done specifically for tax purposes. The deed lists a transfer to a trust, but it has been confirmed that it's a trust established for the benefit of Katie.

Sources reveal that Katie is using the apartment to establish residency in New York for the purpose of the divorce, something that can screw Tom's taxes.

It's pretty obvious that Tom is not gonna let Katie dictate New York as the venue for the divorce. He clearly considers California as the place he must be.

Usher's Stalker Hospitalized For Mental Evaluation !

According to law enforcement sources, the woman arrested in front of Usher's house last weekend was later admitted to a psych ward for mental evaluation after insisting she was his wife.

To be more specific, Darshelle Jones-Rakestraw, 26, was arrested outside Usher's Georgia home Sunday after disobeying a criminal trespass warning, ordering her to stay off his property.

Cops issued the warning the previous day, when Darshelle appeared to Usher's house the first time and someone on the property had to call the cops.

It has to be mentioned that when cops arrived Sunday in response to a suspicious person call, they found Darshelle on the front porch using her iPad.

According to the report, Usher had spotted her on his surveillance camera and called the police himself.

Once they identified her, cops arrested Darshelle for violating the criminal trespass warning but she was in such a bizarre mental state that even the jailers refused to take her!

According to the documents, Darshelle kept insisting she was Usher's wife and he makes all her decisions which is absolutely insane talk because Usher is not married.

As a result, cops claim Darshelle was taken to Emory Johns Creek Hospital instead, where she was admitted for a mental evaluation. She was released shortly after with a copy of the charges against her. Darshelle's due in court next month.

Well, the reports don't reveal the results of the mental evaluation but it is more than certain that something is really wrong with this woman. Usher will be completely vindicated in court!

Lane Garrison Domestic Violence Case: Bailed Out Of Jail !

Former "Prison Break" star Lane Garrison has finally bailed out of jail after being locked up for more than 2 months.

It has to be noted that Lane was arrested on April 22 after allegedly striking his ex-girlfriend in the face during a blowout fight in Beverly Hills. He has reportedly remained in custody ever since because he was on a parole hold for his 2007 vehicular manslaughter conviction.

Lane posted $50,000 bail and later he was released.

He's due in court July 11 for a hearing in the domestic violence case. He pled not guilty and claims he never struck his ex-girlfriend.

But for Lane's bad luck there is a surveillance footage posted by celebrity website TMZ of the April fight, which shows Lane hitting Ashley Mattingly in the face.

It appears that Mr. Garrison apart from having serious anger management issues, he is a liar as well...

Emma Stone looked ethereal in a summary pristine white Chanel dress at the LA premiere of The Amazing Spider-Man at Regency Village Theater, Westwood in CA on Thursday, June 28, 2012.
The knee length embroidered number from Chanel Resort 2013 collection featured short sleeves and voluminous skirt. It was accented with pink velvet floral detailing on the waist and collar and blush pink peek-a-boo underlay.

Selena Gomez on Her New Album

Selena plans to open her heart out in her next album. It will be a tell-all, but no one need have any apprehensions.
She will be writing about "just experiences," not any particular relationship, the 20-year-old told MTV News at the premiere of Katy Perry's new Part of Me movie.
Selena, who has earlier said she will be exploring new sounds in her new album, says she is brimming with ideas on what to write.
"I have a thousand ideas," Gomez said. "This album is going to be the first one that I'm actually going to spend as long as I want — it can be two months, it could be a whole year before this album comes out — so I'm going to have my freedom with it. It'll be, like, my tell-all, in a way.
"I'm going to be able to talk about things that I've never really talked about before, just because the last records have been really rushed, so I'm just excited to be able to take my time with it," she says.
Selena revealed her plans for a new album to MTV news earlier this month at the launch of her fragrance at Macy's Herald Square in New York
"I finished three movies this year, so I'm very happy about that, because it's exactly what I wanted: I wanted to do film for a little bit," she said. "But I am missing music, so we're going to start on the fourth record at the end of this year."
Selena says she wants her new album to be very different from her third studio album, When the Sun Goes Down, which dropped in June, 2011.
"Very different! I want to go for producers that probably wouldn't want me to do their songs," she said. "I just want to knock on their door. I also want to work with Fun. I want to work with just different styles of music."
"I also want to work with Taylor [Swift] too. So I just want to do different things for this album," she said. "By the time it comes out, I'll almost be 21, so I want to be able to — wow, that sounds really scary! I want it to be older."
Selena will turn 21 on July 22, 2013.

Catherine Middleton to Sleep With Homeless To Aid Charity

London is known for its excessive displays of pomp and pageantry, but it also faces a growing homeless population.
In an interview given to the Mirror, actress Lisa Maxwell said that the Duchess of Cambridge, Catherine Middleton, will be taking part in a Sleep Out awareness campaign where she will be with a British television celeb and possibly spend a night on the street that would open the public's eyes to the condition of the city's homeless.
The actress, who is also an activist and Centrepoint ambassador informed: "She asked me about sleeping out, so I said: 'Next time I do it, you're doing it with me. No excuses.'"
Maxwell used Catherine's husband William as an example saying, "He's done it." She said, 'You're on.' "
She met the Duchess through Prince William at a reception for Centrepoint, the organization for which William is royal patron and Princess Diana took an active role.
A rep for the pair refuted the claims, however. "There are no plans for the Duchess to sleep out for Centrepoint. She doesn't have any official role with Centrepoint, but will obviously continue to support the Duke in his patronage of the charity."
William heralded the Christmas holidays by sleeping with homeless people near a London bridge in 2009 in an effort to actively support his cause.
After that, a statement was issued by St. James Palace, stating: "Prince William took away from the experience the importance of tackling all the issues that cause people to be homeless and stay homeless, from drug dependency to mental health problems."
On the official website for the charity, Centrepoint's organizational head Seyi Obakin wrote that the Prince strongly wished to do it as a patron, "to raise awareness of the problem and to be able to understand a little better of what rough sleepers go through."
At any rate if the Duchess did sleep rough for a night, she'd be the first royal wife in history!

Marijuana Bust for Snoop Dogg

Snoop Dogg was detained and fined at an airport in Norway Thursday morning after a sniffing dog found the rap star in possession of eight grams marijuana.

The “Sensual Seduction” hit-maker reportedly arrived at Kjevic Airport in Kristiansand with the drugs — but local laws mandate that anyone discovered carrying less than 15 grams of drugs will be punished by a mere fine.
This isn’t the first time this year the 40-year-old rapper has been busted for drugs: In January, Snoop was arrested at a border control checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Texas after agents found ganja hidden on his tour bus.

Early Wednesday morning, celebrity photographer Billy Barrera was in the parking lot of the West Hollywood nightclub Bootsy Bellows when he bumped into the scandal-prone socialite. After spying his camera, Paris launched into an attack on the pap.
Billy told RadarOnline.com:

“It was 3:30 in the morning, the party was over and I was just walking through the parking lot to go to the bathroom when I see Paris, so I turned on my camera. I wasn’t expecting to get jumped! I’ve shot Paris a lot and am always nice to her.”

Billy blames the heiress’ actions on intoxication:

“Paris was acting like she was on drugs. I know drugs, I’ve seen a lot of people on them and Paris is one of them…She attacked me for no reason, like you can see on the video, but what you don’t see is that she was hanging off my neck like a piggyback ride as I walked up to the next garage level.”

A former investigative journalist, Billy furthered explained:

“Her friends all started attacking me and no one could see us until we got up to that next level, and that’s when I yelled for help and the other paps came running and shot some video.”

In the new campaign, Ashley swaps pixie-cut popularized by her alter ego Alice Cullen for long locks created by celebrity hairstylist Orlando Pita. Simple yet sexy nude lips and smokey eyes, crafted by makeup maven Stephane Marais, complete the look.

DKNY’s Fall 2012 campaign is inspired by the true city girl, says photographer Peter Lindbergh — who shot Greene in some of New York’s hottest locations, including Tribeca and 5th Avenue.

“Someone who has places to go and people to see. Sweet and strong, pretty and tough, smart and street, this season’s campaign voyeuristically and strikingly documents a slice of Ashley Greene’s life in the city.”
