Khloe Kardashian Wears "F_ _k Yo Fur" Faux Fur Coat


Khloe Kardashian turned herself into a walking anti-fur advertisement when she hit the streets in New York City on Monday, Feb. 17, wearing a huge faux fur coat with the words "F_ _k Yo Fur" scrawled on the back in bright red spray paint.
The reality star, 29, tweeted about her look shortly after stepping out, writing, "F_ _k Yo Fur!!! Fake fur all day, people!!" She also posted a video showing the brown and white coat up close.

This is not the first time Kardashian has spoken out against wearing fur. Back in 2008, she posed completely nude in a PETA ad, alongside the tagline, "Fur? I'd rather go naked." Writing about her involvement with the campaign on her blog, she said, "I am done with fur forever and I have now found so many amazing faux fur lines that are great alternatives for women who love the look and love animals."

The DASH co-owner later cut ties with PETA when a woman associated with the organization threw flour on her sister Kim Kardashian, but she pledged to continue to not wear fur. "Everyone is entitled to their own beliefs and opinions I personally don't wear fur, but that doesn't mean I am going to force my view on anyone else, ESPECIALLY by violating them," she shared on her blog.

"We all need to practice what we preach," she added. "I will still continue to NOT wear fur, but I will no longer support PETA."



Victoria Beckham: Husband David Beckham and I Are "Very Equal at Home"


In the March issue of Allure, cover star Victoria Beckham couldn't help but brag a little bit about her marriage to hunky former soccer pro David Beckham. The 39 yearold British fashion designer and mother of four opened up to the magazine about how she and her husband of 14 years support each other.

"David Beckham is the most wonderful man I have ever met. He's a fantastic father," she shared. "He's incredibly talented, a wonderful husband. I supported him for many years, and he's proud of me. He supports me. We're very equal at home."
Victoria even supported her husband when he decided to move to the U.S. to play soccer for the LA Galaxy in 2007. The decision, however, turned out to be beneficial to both.

"Living in America for six years was the happiest I think I've ever been," Victoria told Allure. "Yeah, it was much more accepting for a woman to have a career, as well as a man. And I loved it."
Changing her career from Spice Girls singer to designer wasn't easy. "I was never a natural," Victoria explained. "I got there in the end because I did believe that if you work hard enough, then you can achieve a lot."

Victoria also credits her time performing with the Spice Girls for giving her confidence and a good work ethic. "I think what gave me confidence in myself was meeting the other girls," she said of former band members Mel B, Emma Bunton, Melanie C and Geri Halliwell. "We always said we were all like rejects in our own way. We had to work hard, and they helped me accept me for who I was."
Now that she's a confident working mom of four, Victoria also told Allure that she removed her breast implants. "I don't have them anymore," she told Allure of her formerly large breasts. "I think I may have purchased them," she quipped.



Kate Middleton, Queen Elizabeth II Greet Helen Mirren, Other Stars at Buckingham Palace


Roll out the royal red carpet! Kate Middleton and Queen Elizabeth II welcomed movie stars to Buckingham Palace on Monday, Feb. 17. The 87 year old Queen and Prince William's wife, 32, hosted a reception for the dramatic arts along with Prince Michael of Kent.

Middleton showed off her slim figure at the event in a red Alexander McQueen dress while standing alongside the Queen to greet guests. The new mom wore the same dress to the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant on the River Thames back in June 2012. The Duchess accessorized the look Monday by carrying an Anya Hindmarch "Maud" clutch, wearing Cassandra Goad "Temple of Heaven" earrings and Prada shoes.

Monday's reception was held to honor Britain's theater and film talent, and was attended by actors, playwrights, teachers, producers and directors. Among the stars in attendance were Helen Mirren, Uma Thurman, Hugh Laurie, Helena Bonham Carter, Joan Collins, Joely Richardson, Gemma Arterton, Roger Moore, Steve McQueen, Harvey Weinstein, Ralph Fiennes and Angela Lansbury.

The Queen and Middleton chatted with a small group of the invited 250 guests in the White Drawing Room before moving into the Ballroom for a series of short performances, including students of RADA performing from Oh! What a Lovely War.

On Sunday, Feb. 16, Middleton's husband Prince William awarded Mirren with an academy fellowship at the BAFTAs in London. While presenting the award, William, 31, jokingly referred to Mirren, 68, as "granny," as she has often portrayed the Queen in film.
When Middleton met Mirren on Monday she joked to her: "I hear my husband called you granny last night."
