Yes, yes we know âbird poo facialsâ it all sounds a bit far fetched, but please bear with us because we promise weâre not making this stuff up. Victoria Beckham has recently had an entire image overhaul and while the pixie do was the most obvious difference we couldnât help but feel she'd had something else done that we couldnât pinpoint. In fact we did a story stating that and you all agreed, but just like us you werenât too sure what it was either. But one thing everyone agreed one was she had had some sort of facial treatment and her skin looked paler than the rest of her body. Well thereâs a very good reason for that and we know what it is...
âWhen Victoria was in Japan recently she was admiring the local womenâs clear skin and discovered it was down to these (geisha) facials. She was intrigued and when she got back to the US she found that some New York beauty salons now offer the treatment.â
So whatâs so special about it? Well they use a paste made from nightingale poo as it helps keep the skin clear and pale.
âShe tried it and loved how great her skin looked. She also uses a cream derived from nightingale poo at home.â
Sounds ridiculous right? Well thatâs what we thought until we stumbled across this fancy website that offers geisha facials. So what do you reckon, have we cracked the Posh face mystery?
Can you imagine if you were a passer-by and you suddenly spotted Brad Pitt pedal past you on a bicycle?! We once saw Guy Ritchie ride past us on a bike in Soho. Itâs not really the same thing though is it?
Yesterday we caught up with Angelina Jolie and her three children Shiloh, Zahara and Pax strolling through the French Quarter of New Orleans. The Hollywood star and her brood stopped at Verdi Mart to pick up some snacks and anyone could have been forgiven for thinking they were the most normal family in the world. But we know better than thatâ¦.
Now aside from the fact she recently gave birth to twins and her boyfriend is probably considered one of the most beautiful men in the world it turns out Angelina has yet another reason to smile. Oh we know life is just soooooo fair isnât?!
Director Clint Eastwood has been dishing out the compliments and we think itâs fair to say heâs an Angie fan:
âI've always admired her talent, but she's somewhat hampered sometimes by having this gorgeous face, the most gorgeous face on the planet. She is a great talent, it would be easy to overlook that, but you soon realise that she is this great, talented person.â
Youâre right Clint we totally agree with the overlooking her talent part the funny thing is it's for none of the reasons you listed...

Earlier today we caught up with the smiley happy contestants leaving the house they are all currently sharing and heading to rehearsals in London, which means the battle is officially on. So who do you want to win? Alexandra Burke and Laura White are currently the bookies favourite but that could all change. Tell us who your favourite is and why or you can....
Kylie Minogue has a new toyboy and rumour has it the pair were spotted getting particularly cosy at Dita Von Teeseâs star-studded birthday bash in Paris at the weekend...
Nothing Pamela Anderson does will ever cease to amaze us- NOTHING! The 41-year-old former Baywatch star surprised Playboy King Hugh Hefner when she presented him with a birthday cake to celebrate his 82nd birthday.
The former playmate, who has posed for Playboy magazine thirteen times, appeared from behind a curtain sporting her birthday suit and proceeded to present a very happy Hugh with a chocolate cake. Despite the fact this actually happened a couple of months ago the shocking event aired on US TV last night with blurred areas protecting Pammyâs modesty (ha!)
Itâs her Royal Vileness! Okay so maybe there wasnât a huge demand but we couldnât resist showing you these pictures anyway we must be gluttons for punishment. So whatâs Jodie up to now? Well she appears to be trying to put a condom on that blokes head, righty-ho then, as you were...
