THIS GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED.
Are your frizzy strands driving you bananas? I have the perfect solution: John Frieda Frizz-Ease Sheer Solution! JF’s latest creation was made for fine/medium frizzy hair and contains two formulas: a smoothing lotion (to condition hair) and a lightweight serum (to smooth it). They sit in the tube like oil and vinegar. Shake the bottle to mix them and you’re in business! I squeezed a penny-sized amount into my hands, finger combed it through my hair, and got to styling. The result? Smooth, sleek strands that weren’t greasy or weighed down.
Sheer Solution is $9.99 and can be found at food, drug, and mass retailers nationwide, but we’re giving away a bottle to ONE (1) lucky reader. Simply leave a comment below to enter. This giveaway is open to residents of the United States only and ends on March 1st, 2012. Good luck!

E! star Chelsea Handler spreads her wings on REDBOOK‘s March cover.
In the interview, the comedienne opens up about her beginnings in Hollywood, her family and her famous best friends.
Her mom:
“She was such a lovely, supportive, and soft person, very opposite to what I am. She could always sense when people needed an extra dose of loving. One of my high school girlfriends told me when my mom passed away, ‘You know, your mom was the first person who ever told me she loved me.’ We had so much love in our family. We’re all tied together in a really special way.”
Humble beginnings:
“I was probably 24, and my family was living in New Jersey and they were all sending me money on a regular basis. If I couldn’t make rent, I would pick a brother or sister or my parents. They would take turns. And my sister said, ‘I have no doubt in my mind that you’re going to get there. There is nothing else you’re capable of doing besides this. Don’t give up on yourself. I believe in you. There’s no one like you. What you are going to end up doing is creating your own thing.’ And then I got the call on the other line that I had gotten The Practice. I had booked it, and it was like $8,000, so in my mind, I was like, ‘I can retire!’ And I was cast as a rape victim, so it was a dramatic role, which made it all the more absurd. But it was one of those moments I’ll never forget. But of course, my sister doesn’t remember that conversation at all.”
Sharing the spotlight:
“I read this cheesy quote once: ‘Blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make your glow brighter.’ We women have to stick together. People ask me why I’m so hard on men. Its because they’ve gotten a really easy ride. And its not that I think women should take over the world. But I do think it should be 50/50. I’m very much about letting other people shine, because it makes us all shine brighter. I like having a fraternity. I like girls and boys together, misfits and underdogs—I love underdogs.”
Love for her BFFs:
“I mean, Jennifer Aniston is one of the most down to earth, low-key people I know. She’s just a regular girl. And Reese is the same way. I mean you can’t have friendships that aren’t based on realness. I’m not going to treat them any differently than I would any other of my friends. I mean, Jen and Justin [Theroux] came to my house for Thanksgiving with 18 of my staff members. And so what?”

Naomi Campbell is featured in Harper’s Bazaar’s March issue, and inside the mag, she opens up about her past, and talks about her diet and beauty routine.
See below for some qutoes from her interview!
On her diet:
“For me, carbs are a treat now.”
On getting older:
“I don’t worry about a number, I’m fine with aging.”
On her past:
“Look, you have to make mistakes. That’s how you learn and that’s how the world works. I’ve made a few. What makes a person is the ability to look at themselves and deal with their own lives. How you deal [with your actions] is what defines you.”
While she’s made headlines for her antics and activism off the runway, Campbell, at her core, is still a supermodel:
“But I would never call myself that. I don’t have any superhuman powers. I still love what I do. It’s a new challenge to see how people can change your look. I like words like transformation, reinvention, and chameleon. Because one word I don’t like is predictable.”
The March issue of Harper’s Bazaar hits newsstands February 14.

Russell Brand and Katy Perry did not have a prenup, meaning they’re each entitled to 50% of everything they earned during their 14-month marriage.
According to Forbes, Katy made $44 million over that time span, so Russell could earn a pretty penny in their divorce.
Surprisingly enough, the British comedian doesn’t want her money.
One source says:
“This divorce is as amicable as it gets, and Russell was a mensch (Yiddish for a good person).”
Russell’s lawyer filed final divorce papers on Tuesday, but the divorce won’t be made official until June 30th due to the 6 month waiting period.

Ashton Kutcher celebrated his 34th birthday with his Two and a Half Men coworkers, who gave him a special cake for the big day!
The actor tweeted:
“I love my coworkers.”
Kutcher made his debut on the hit show last September, after Charlie Sheen infamously got the boot earlier in 2011.
A crew member admits it was a nice change:
“He jokes with the crew, has no tantrums, he comes in well studied in his lines — it’s such a nice change. So far there have been no issues and everyone is really happy with how it’s working out. Nobody is missing Charlie right now.”
But we have to ask: Is the show as successful without Charlie?
