The Kardashians Open With a Spa-Bang!

The season premiere of Kourtney and Kim Take New York was on E! Sunday night and boy did it feature some spa madness! Just when we think the clan can’t top themselves… they somehow do. This one hour episode featured TWO controversial healthy living practices. Let’s begin the lesson…

First, Kourtney gets an olive oil enema at an ayurvedic spa in NYC. There’s even Twitter proof:

Ayurveda spas practice holistic therapy rooted in ancient medicine originating in India. Kim resisted the treatment luckily because back at the hotel Kourtney leaked all over the bed!  Michelle recently enjoyed a coffee  and chlorophyll colonic (but didn’t suffer the same fate Kourtney did).

And the craziness didn’t stop there – the sisters decided to try a nude yoga session with some friends. Oh my! We’re all for getting naked at the spa (see video below) but this is a whole other beast. Nude yoga has stirred up some controversy even though celebs like Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry and Gwyneth Paltrow have confessed to going bare. Supposedly doing the downward dog position in the buff will help you lose those inhibitions, but there are some skeptics. Like Kris Humphries.

So next time you’re at the spa, ask yourself “What would the Kardashians do?”

Linklove: James Bond Must Know About The Butters

Father’s Day is Sunday, and this week’s #linklove has nothing to do with it. But I had to remind you… we have statistical proof Dad wants a spa day and you can still get SpaWeek Gift Cards for 15% off! And now, your explanation for the above:

- A raging Vlogger is “So Pissed at Black People”… for hiding away THE BUTTERS! Where my fellow Cocoa Butter fanatics at? (Afrobella)

- Perfume Intelligence: Next year they’ll be releasing a James Bond 007 inspired perfume to coincide with the 23rd film in the series. Some things never get old I suppose; here are Bond-y scents from years past. (BellaSugar)

- So, Kim Kardashian’s wedding registry at GEARY’S leaked like wild (surely an accident, that Kim is so modest). Wouldn’t life be sweeter with a $710 sugar bowl? (The Frisky)

- Turn a negative into a positive… with a DIY lamp made out of the negatives of your old photos. (The Luxury Spot)

- Peep these gorgeous photos of the earth from above, and have an out of this world weekend! (LiveFastMag)

WIN: Ecoya Love Candle & Beauty Giveaway

When a sample of the Ecoya Love Candle arrived in the office last week, my love story went a little something like: FALLING. HARD. Woah. If ever there was a candle made for Valentine’s Day, this is it.

And apparently I’m not alone. Kim Kardashian guiltlessly indulges in Ecoya’s Pink Champagne scented Love Candle, and was recently seen picking up one for her new squeeze Kris Humphries. In fact, Ecoya is reportedly the only scent she allows in her perfectly polished home. Kim isn’t the only one igniting romance this Valentine’s Day with Ecoya—Lisa Rinna was also spotted buying the Love Candle for hubby Harry Hamlin at Kitson in LA.

Made from natural soy wax and pure cotton wicks, Ecoya candles have a longer burn time and emit less carbon soot into our precious atmosphere. How’s that for #LOVE? Now win it!

Behind the Scenes Golden Globes Award: @JasonBinn

Last night you were either plopped in front of the TV tuned into the nail biter playoff game between the Jets and the Patriots or you found yourself enthralled with the the super glamorous action at the 68th Golden Globes Awards. Thanks to the power of the internet, pictures were instantly posted on blogs, opinions flying the best and worst dressed. And because we cannot consume it all fast enough, Twitter proves once again to be the gift that keeps on giving.

In the spirit of honoring the best of the best, we would like to award a virtual Golden Globe to the Most Outstanding Twitter Coverage of the evening:

And the Golden Globe goes to… @JasonBinn! Jason Binn is the Chairman of Niche Media, publishing Gotham, Capitol File, Hamptons, LA Confidential and other magazines, and known for his high profile network of personal friends. In fact, it would not be surprising to learn he is personally friends with every single person who has ever appeared in his magazines, or… say… attended the Golden Globes last night. From red carpet closeups to behind the scenes with his friends at the afterparty, he truly took his followers behind the scenes. It was cool to see celebs unperched from their red carpet statues to actually mingling and resembling normal people.

Take a look at the star-studded evening through the highly esteemed lens of Jason Binn’s Blackberry (although many seem to be borrowed from the interwebs, it’s still the most solid coverage of the evening):

Per usual, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were the symbol of perfection on the red carpet. She looked like a true goddess in her sparkly emerald green gown with Brad as her best accessory.

Not to be outdone, Anne Hathaway styled by Rachel Zoe showed up in a champagne gown, bold shouldered sparkler that seemed to hug her curves perfectly.

Green was obviously the suprise color of the night. Catherine Zeta Jones showed up with her husband Michael Douglas who is also a cancer survivor.

Fashion folks went ‘Mad’ for Christina Hendricks’ red on red.

Obviously aware of that fact that Christina Hendricks’ would steal the show, Emma Stone debuted a hot new blonde hair color that went perfectly with her peachy nude dress and makeup.

Kim Kardashian was snapped at one of many after parties wearing a curve hugging black lace gown and an impeccable red pout.

@JasonBinn caught up with Paris and Nicky Hilton.

Oops moment? Nothing escapes a cell phone camera. Hayden Panettiere was smiley in one of her signature plunging gowns.

More behind the scenes footage makes us really wish we there. Here is a shot of Robin Antin, TV Correspondent Maria Menunos, and Kim Kardashian. All equally gorgeous.

Lastly, Jason took a shot of Sophia Vergara, Ocean Drive Magazine’s January cover girl.

For more inside scoop from one of the most connected people on the planet, check Jason Binn’s Twitter feed.

Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush – Superbowl is bigger deal than you thought

Your quick Wedding Wednesday dispatch today is  doozy!

Celebrity made famous for…being famous (how’s that for a catch-22?) Kim Kardashian has struck a deal with boyfriend Reggie Bush.

If the Saints, the NFL team Bush plays for, makes it to and wins the Superbowl, he will propose to Kardashian. It’s just like gambling…except more romantic? Maybe?

The Saints play the Vikings on January 24th, after which Kim will either have her hopes dashed or take one step closer to winning her bet. Everyone update your fantasy football pools!

Update: Turns out this isn’t a real wager between Kardashian and Bush, but rather a joke she made to the press that took on a life of its own (shocker, right?) The sanctity of both marriage and the Superbowl, luckily, remain intact.
