Experts Slam Angelina Jolie for Zahara’s Hair Extensions

Angelina Jolie is catching heat for her choice in hairstyles for 6-year-old daughter, Zahara. The little girl recently debuted a head full of weave at a family outing. The hair extensions normally take hours to braid and the procedure can be painful, especially if the child is tender headed.

“If Angelina wants Zahara to be in touch with her roots and have her hair braided then she can do that with the child’s own hair and she doesn’t need to add extensions,” celebrity groomer DaRico Jackson told RadarOnline.com.

“She is far too young for that and Angelina is creating insecurity in the little girl that what she has is not good enough.

“Growing up with siblings who have long flowing hair, Zahara may grow to feel that her own natural hair is not pretty enough, and that without the fake hair she is not beautiful. She should be made to embrace who she is.”

Jackson added: “There are many cute styles that Zahara can have without adding fake hair at such a tender age.”

I agree, but many women in the black community put weave extensions in their daughter’s hair. It’s a matter of convenience for women who don’t have the time or money to take better care of their children’s hair.

Moving Day for Chaz Bono and Jennifer Elia

Dancing With the Stars‘ contestant Chaz Bono, 42, who is living life as a man, was spotted moving out of the home she/he shared with ex-fiancee, Jennifer Elia. Last week Chaz announced the couple’s break-up after 12 years together. Bono was spotted hauling a large suitcase out of the home. Elia showed up a little while later to move her things out.

Celebrity gossip blog TMZ.com described Elia as looking “visibly distraught” upon her arrival But she looks relieved from where we’re sitting.

Both women were lesbians when they first met 12 years ago. Things were normal on the home front until Chaz, born Chastity Bono, decided she was a man yearning to be free. Bono had her healthy breasts surgically removed and began taking male hormones.

Bono and Elia attempted to live a somewhat ordinary life as a heterosexual couple — Chaz as a man, and Jennifer as “his” straight girlfriend. But the strain of pretending not to notice her man’s vagina may have been a bit too much for Elia.

Adele Loses Weight – and Her Golden Voice

British singer Adele tweeted this pic on her official Twitter page yesterday. When Adele was riding high, her Twitter page was maintained by her record label. But Adele took it over now that she has nothing else better to do after having throat surgery.

Adele’s critically acclaimed 2nd studio album, 21, is the one of the biggest-selling albums of the decade. But don’t look for another album from Adele for at least a couple of years.

Adele’s signature vocals is unnatural for her and puts a strain on her golden pipes, causing bleeding inside her vocal cords.

Surgical intervention for vocal cord hemorrhage is usually the last resort when nothing else will stop the bleeding. This means Adele is susceptible to future episodes of vocal cord bleeding. She must either alter the way she sings or she will never sing again.
