Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

Mischa Barton’s condition is improved and she is planning to return to work, her publicist announced.

The former star of The OC was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and kept under a psychiatric hold after police were called to her home for an undisclosed medical problem in Los Angeles.

Spokesman Craig Schneider said Barton, 23, is “still seeking treatment but making improvements”.

Schneider said Barton plans to report to work on the new CW series The Beautiful Life later this month. A CW spokesman for the show, which stars Barton as a super model, said production was scheduled to begin July 31.

Curvy stars more inspiring to dieters than skinny stars

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

Curvy stars such as actress Kate Winslet and chef Nigella Lawson are more of an inspiration to dieters than skinny stars, a new poll has claimed.

Kellogg’s Special K conducted the poll to see who people trying to weight look up to the most.

The poll claimed more people want to see an hourglass figure like 33-year-old Kate Winslet’s than a skinny star like model Kate Moss’s.

Sixty-five per cent of the 2,000 women surveyed said they would prefer an hourglass shape.

The poll also found out that British women also look up to older women such as Dame Helen Mirren and Dame Judi Dench.
