One of my guilty pleasures is reading Hollywood gossip during my pedicure.  I rely on Signature Nails to provide my drug of choice, Us Weekly. A recent snarky article was entitled  “10 Stars who look bad on HDTV”. Evidently, high definition television has been a career crippler for celebs like Cameron Diaz, who tops the list (bad skin).  This might explain her decision to take the role of Princess Fiona in “Shrek”.  Astute choice.  Also included were Katie Couric, Cher, Rosie O’Donnell, Britney, and…(sit down and prepare to be crushed),  Brad Pitt.

All I can say is that there are very few of us who couldn’t use a little air brushing every now and then.

The oil paintings by today’s featured artist, Chaira Albertoni, have nothing to do with Hollywood or smoke and mirrors.   Her exactitude is astounding.  Bring on the fluorescent lights!
