Jennifer Lawrence's Makeup-Free Look Was a Big Mistake

ll right. I'm gonna be brutally honest, here. After seeing Jennifer Lawrence's barely there makeup at the premiere of The Great Gatsby -- I really think choosing to go so light on the eyeliner and eye shadow this time around was a bad idea. Yes, I know she's young and fresh-faced and has a natural vibe going on and doesn't need a whole lot of makeup to look good. But in this case, especially given the formality of the event, she probably should've gone a bit heavier on the cosmetics. And I'll tell you why. Jen is gorgeous, but she also has a baby-faced appearance, so when she doesn't play up her eyes, she looks much younger than she actually is. Granted, for 30- and 40-somethings, this is generally a good thing. But in her case, at 22, she actually looks more like 15 when she chooses to go the minimal makeup (or makeup-free) route. She looks so much less sophisticated -- like she really didn't put any sort of effort in at all. Here's a photo of the...

"I think it's time for me to give back"- Madhuri Dixit

Whenever the subject of dance comes up, Madhuri Dixit is the reference point. Using her whole body language and rythm as an instrument to bring out the nuances of the mood, her spot on moves have inspired many cinema lovers. I was thrilled to bits when I heard that the star is in the process of launching an online dance academy. Dance With Madhuri Dixit, as the academy is aptly called, is conceptualised by RnM Moving Pictures Ltd, a company jointly owned by Madhuri and her husband, Dr Sriram Nene. The online format is her husband’s brainchild, she reveals. “Ram is extremely tech savvy. Before he joined medicine, he had a company that wrote software. He ideated the online tutorials and gave them a gaming format.” Her logic is simple. “I want everyone to experience the joy of dancing. Many don’t attend dance classes because they are shy of performing in front of others. Now, they can learn dancing in the privacy of their home. And don’t forget, dance is a good form of exercise, so t...
