Beauty

Raise a cosmopolitan and put on your Manolos because it's time to celebrate "Sex and the City" star Kim Cattrall's 50th -- yes 50th -- birthday.

At 50 years young, Cattrall couldn't look better.

And although the sexy siren is now eligible for her AARP card, we don't expect to see her trading her designer gowns for house dresses anytime soon. Besides, Samantha Jones would never allow it!

In age-obsessed Hollywood, women like Cattrall, Madonna - who just turned 48, and 60-year-old Cher, prove that, just like a fine wine, they get better with age.

We all knew Matt Lauer had a passion for fitness ... but holy cow!!! Who knew Matt Lauer was hiding such a muscular physique underneath his suit?

Thursday afternoon, cameras caught the "Today" show hunk spending some quality time with his family on the beach in Southhampton, New York.

Lauer has been co-anchoring NBC's Today show since 1997, giving us plenty of time to get to know the guy. But rarely do we see our favorite news anchors trading in their on-camera garb for beach wear.

Looks like PEOPLE magazine was right when they choose Lauer as one of the 50 Most Beautiful People in the world back in 97.

Anchor or no anchor -- Matt we applaud you for the ripped six pack.

While Jessica has always sported a rockin' bod, she's apparently been working her gluteus to the maximus and it shows.

But make no mistake, unlike the title of her latest film "The Illusionist," Biel's booty is no mirage. And from the looks of her recent outings, it seems the former "7th Heaven" star isn't afraid to show off those dangerous curves either - and we couldn't be happier.

Check out Jessica in all her newfound bootylicious glory.

But this isn't the first time the forever young looking icon has stepped out in public with a mask on, earlier this year cameras caught her in similar form leaving the same day spa.

Summer was finally starting to cool down until the paparazzi spotted Penelope Cruz enjoying the sun on the deck of a boat while vacationing with her family in Ibiza. Cruz, singer Rihanna and Nicole Richie are only a few of the many celebs that slapped on their bathing suits this weekend and found time to have fun in the sun.

TMZ took this opportunity to put together a photo gallery of famous faces showing off their famous bodies.

The headband cringe has apparently turned into the headband craze. When roots and unruly bangs compromise fashion, celebs are hitting the town with with a cure - headbands!

Luckily that hasn't been the case for Ivanka, who, at 24, is the Trump Organization's VP of Real Estate Development and co-starred with her dad on the most recent season of NBC's "The Apprentice."

While The Donald is a business mentor for Ivanka, she admits she tends to avoid his love advice. "He has very strong opinions - which I try not to listen to."

The former model also avoids introducing boyfriends to Donald for as long as possible but adds, "He hasn't threatened bodily harm to any of the people I've dated. Well, as far as I know."

Janice Dickinson exhibited somewhat less-than-model behavior at a West Hollywood bar on Friday.

The self-proclaimed "world's first supermodel" enjoyed a wild night on the town at a book release party for photographer Lewis Payton at the trendy gay hotspot iCandy Lounge.

Janice looked particularly stylish in all her Botox-ed glamour and seemed to keep it together for the first part of the evening.

But after enjoying what appeared to be champagne, Dickinson caused a scene by jumping on a guy and kissing him on the bar's side patio.

The 51-year-old mother of two, with her well-coiffed entourage in tow, then danced, staggered and even played matchmaker by introducing two hunks to each other.

Anna Nicole Smith allegedly lost all her excess blubber by using the weight loss supplement TrimSpa. Now Carmen Electra is claiming the secret to her slammin' body is not due to good genes, marathon gym sessions or a strict diet, but to a miracle pill named NV.

NV calls itself the world's first beauty-enhancing, weight loss pill and claims its "all-natural complexes help women lose weight by supporting fat loss and appetite suppression, look radiant by improving the health of hair, skin and nails, and feel dynamic by increasing energy levels throughout the day." Got that?

The former Baywatch babe is the spokesperson for the product and says NV is "my secret to maintaining my looks, energy and confidence."

That's all fine and good Carmen, but we still think it's the genes.

With her breakup from estranged husband Dave Navarro, Electra is once again single and ready to mingle.

How about? "Everyone is made differently, and that's what makes us beautiful and unique. I want girls to look in the mirror and feel confident."

Yeah, we didn't believe it either. But alas in the July issue of the women's magazine this is exactly what the pop tart professed.

It has been rumored that Simpson underwent a rhinoplasty operation -er, nose job- and has added long blonde hair extensions to her repertoire in the period of time between the cover interview and its publication.

After the interview was published, over 1,000 readers wrote to the magazine in protest. "The article ... was a joke, right?" a reader from Boston asked. "I realize you can't control what your cover models do after the interview and photo shoot, but still!" one reader from Denver wrote. "You couldn't have picked a worse role model!" fumed a reader from Toronto. Simpson has also been featured in dozens of blogs, being censured as a hypocrite.

Victoria's Secret exclusively previewed their new makeup line, Very Sexy Makeup, on Monday at a local Los Angeles shop.

Five Victoria's Secret Angels were on hand to talk to fans and sign autographs. Heidi Klum, Izabel Goulart, Alessandra Ambrosio, Selita Ebanks and Karolina Kurkova gave their approval for the brand's newest addition to the family. Gisele Bundchen is also featured in the campaign, but wasn't at the event.

TMZ caught up with the girls to find out how sexy it would be for a man to buy his woman make-up ... you may find the answers interesting.

Let's hope the disheveled diva cleans up before her high-priced concert tour in October.

Before Tyra, Heidi or Gisele put on their Victoria's Secret wings, the fashion world revolved around the likes of Cindy, Linda, Christy and Naomi.

While well into their 30s and early 40s - relative relics in modeling years - lately these fabulous genetic freaks have been getting a lot of press and making quite the comeback. TMZ checks in to see what's new in the world of the original supermodels.

Naomi

To be a world-class runway supermodel you have to know how to throw attitude and apparently in Naomi Campbell's case - telephones. While the 36-year-old stunner just celebrated her 20th anniversary as a model, in the last few years Naomi has gotten more press for her less than exemplary model behavior. Since 2000, five of Campbell's former employees have come forward alleging the supermodel mistreated them. Two claim Campbell struck them with telephones while another says Campbell struck her in the face. Just last week Naomi was arrested in London for disturbing the peace outside her former boyfriend's home. Campbell was later de-arrested and no further action will be taken. With her upcoming covers in W and Italian Vogue magazines, perhaps the devil really does wear Prada.

Tiger Woods claimed his third victory at the British Open this weekend, his first big win without his father and mentor Earl Woods by his side. Earl passed away in May after a long battle with cancer.

Plastic surgeons in Hollywood are doing boffo box office these days. It used to be that their "sweet spot" was actresses who were 40ish. Now, 20-year-olds are signing up for new noses, lips, boobs, you name it.

Here's the deal. A lot of these high-profile, young starlets already look good/great. True enough, they could look even better with a tweak here or there, but to most young girls they look amazing.

So what's the message here. An insecure 15-year-old who idolizes a certain young star watches the sudden transformation. I think the way that translates is that the young star must have hated the way she looked. How do you hate the way you look when you look good already? We'll that's the altered state of reality created by these 20-something makeovers. It validates hating the way you look, therefore hating yourself.

It's not everyday that you get a chance to go on a date with the Sexiest Woman Alive -- and one lucky businessman from Denver paid $30,000 this week to have lunch with the so-anointed Jessica Biel to help a Colorado teen who lost her leg in a prom-night auto accident.

Still, 30 grand for The Sexiest Woman Alive (according to Esquire magazine) seems like a relative bargain compared with what it can cost to get your fifteen minutes (or so) with other famous folk.
