It seems as if time doesn't affect Cindy. She's just as beautiful as she was in her prime modeling days.

Proof: Working out excessively and spending $$$ on your beauty will pay off in looks.

Fresh faced and youthful. Jenny looks like she could be half her age!

Jenny from the Block doesn't have a wrinkle in sight. Absolutely stunning.

As much as we hate to praise Kim K, we DO have to give her credit on her flawless skin.

We've all heard about Heidi's surgery binge. What a shame.

Michael Jackson in training.

Duck face: botox edition.

Yikes. And she looked so beautiful in Moulin Rouge too...

It looks like he came straight out of a horror movie. We're speechless.

Triskaidekaphobia, the morbid fear of the number 13, has led to buildings without a thirteenth floor, airports without a 13th gate, a neverending film franchise and of course, the most notorious day of the year. For your Friday the 13th viewing terror, here are 13 style superstitions to heed and fear:

1. Crack a coke mirror, get 7 years of bad blow.

2. Cross a black catwalk, fall on the runway.

3. Naomi Campbell-walking under a ladder will bring several dirty looking pebbles to you in the night.

4. Botox a day keeps the wrinkles away.

5. Listening to Lady Gaga will make you gay — as will  one drunken time in college.

6. Step on her crack, Whitney Houston will break your motherf*cking back.

7. Opening an umbrella indoors makes it rain on a whore.

8. For the lucky bride — something old, something new, something borrowed, and no pre-nup, boo.

9. Hanging Sarah Jessica Parker‘s shoe on the wall will bring good luck.

10. Never wear Uggs after Labor Day — or ever.

11. Find a tranny on her head pick her up, all night long you’ll get free shots.

12. Kissing a toad gives you warts — as will kissing a guido.

13. Garlic protects you from vampires, evil spirits and ever having a date.

Take it easy out there today kids for as a wise blind man once said, “Superstition ain’t the way.”

“Brotox.” Women are even getting in on the action, gifting their dudes with the gift of immobile foreheads. [HuffPo]

- It may be time for Barbie to start picking better friends. Doll versions of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian – called Dash dolls after their miniature Kardashian-inspired clothing — will befriend Mattel’s golden girl this year. In addition to wearing the trashy leopard print jumpsuits synonymous with the family’s Dash Boutiques, the dolls will “reflect the girls’ measurements.” Meaning the Khloe doll will be played by Ken.

Thank Christ someone came to work last night. Nicki wore this look flawlessly right off the runway with Alexander McQueen wedges, a curly pink coif and feminine makeup. I don't know about y'all, but she is my vote for Best Dressed by a landslide.

The words "Jenny McCarthy" and "impressed" are rarely seen in a sentence together, but last night was an exception. Not only is this outfit perfect, Jenny's hair and makeup look gorgeous and her boobs are contained under more than an inch of fabric. Surprising, yet indeed impressive.

Jennifer Hudson worked hard for her rockin' bod, and she's not afraid to show off those curves. For any other event, this dress would have been a tad short, but it's perfect for the AMAs. I know a few celebs (*cough* Christina Aguilera) who should take note from Jennifer here.

MJB could wear a garbage bag and land herself on the best dressed list. She is rocking this tacky Cavalli animal print dress like nobody's business and looks fantastic. Although, I wish the hair was a little bigger to match the mood.

Selena Gomez, the apple of Justin Bieber's eye and target of every tweeny bopper's hate mail, looks elegant as always in Armani. The dress, hair and makeup are perfect, but I wish her accessories weren't so matchy-matchy. She should mix in some playful pieces while she's still young.

ZZzzZZZzzz... Oh, excuse me, I fell asleep looking at Taylor Swift in the SAME DRESS SHE ALWAYS WEARS. To quote the late Lexi Featherston, "I'm so bored, I could die." Splat Taylor, splat.

I understand dressing elegant and all old Hollywood-like is kind of Katherine's thing, but this is the AMAs, not a black tie gala. Also, is her cleavage creeping you out like it's creeping me out?

New cougar on the market Jennifer Lopez borrowed the famous embellished nude jumpsuit Britney Spears wore performing at the 2000 MTV Video Music Awards. Sure she looks great for her age, but this is about 40 years from being appropriate.

Put X-Tina in a bandage dress and you have the perfect Jimmy Dean costume. Too bad Halloween is over. As usual, everyone failed to tell Christina she needs to go up about four sizes. Hair is bad, makeup is worse, poor girl just keeps rolling right down the hill.

Oh dear, another girl who doesn't know how to handle her own curves. A tight, red, sequined dress just does not work on a body like Clarkson's. A few more yards of fabric, some fishing line and black dye would improve this look greatly.

Keep smiling through the Botox Cheryl, and maybe no one will notice you raided the Kids 'R Us for your AMAs dress. Oops, too late. If you listen carefully, you can hear the soft chatter of her stylist being fired.

If you can manage to look past Audrina Patridge's lifeless gaze, you'll see what she really is - a low-class stripper with no soul. Wearing a garbage bag and prostitution whore heels, it's just another day in LaLa land for the reality television has-been.

- Lanvin‘s Alber Elbaz continues to be the most adorable thing this side of…well, these Lanvin dolls. In a talk he gave over this weekend, Alber explained why he just says no: “I don’t take drugs because if I did I’d love them – I’d be a junkie. And because I’m Jewish, I’d probably be a dealer too.” Comedy! [Vogue UK]

- Then there are those designers who don’t even know what “no” means. And the result: superstardom. At least that’s what I got from this particular fable. Drugs only help. [Refinery29]

First there’s the Newsweek cover, which becomes all the more terrifying the more you look at it. At first glance I thought, “Oh, that’s nice…” then I noticed how badly Photoshopped it is and that Diana has apparently been digitally aged to represent her 50 years. And then some.

Even more disturbing is Diana’s expression which seems to say “This is a really bad idea but I had no say in it and I am completely embarrassed to be dug up and put in what looks like an off-the-rack number from Sears.”

But now the article. Brown interviewed some 250 people for The Diana Chronicles so she knows a thing or two about the Lady Spencer. At 50, Brown asserts, Diana would — like her mother, “a handsome woman to the very end” — still be “great-looking” albeit “there is no doubt she would have kept her chin taut with strategic Botox shots and her bare arms buff from the gym.”

She would be friends with Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, dress like Michelle Obama, be jealous of Queen Rania of Jordan and sleep around with a lot of really rich dudes. That Dodi al-Fayed character, Brown conjectures, would be tossed to the wayside for his “hopeless unreliability.”

As for  her son William‘s new bride, Kate Middleton, Diana “would have had to adjust to a broadening of the limelight.” Brown cites a particular moment when Diana’s handsome mother, Frances Shand Kydd, “suddenly burst out” before her daughter’s marriage: “I have good long legs, like my daughter!”

Brown, no doubt sensing an unrelenting bitchiness in tone, goes on to highlight the Princess’ charity work and reasons that “in the world disasters of the last few years—9/11, the tsunamis, the Pakistan earthquake, Hurricane Katrina…Diana would have been first at the scene in a hard hat with a camera crew (and, by now, 10 million followers on Twitter).”

Newsweek seems particularly obsessed with Diana’s social media presence having doctored up these two gems:

That’s right, there’s an entire fake Facebook page — a Fauxbook, if you will — revealing that Diana would love her some Ramona Singer and Sue Sylvester. She’d also put aside that whole Charles and Camilla business. Not only would Parker-Bowles fictionally be her FBook friend but Prince Charles, as Brown believes, would be “her best male friend in later years.”

Reaction to the article has been divisive to say the least. The word tacky has been bandied about and many of the article’s 130 (and counting) comments use “tasteless,”  “offensive,” “inappropriate,” “disgusting” and “poor taste”; and at least one commenter was prompted to cancel her subscription.

I guess that’s what you get for disgracing a beloved celebrity’s image with a poorly-conceived and shoddily-executed publicity gimmick disguised as a tribute. Who knew?

The good doctor warns that Bo-Bo is only licensed for the treatment of moderate to severe haggardness and should not be used in adolescents who, for the record, don’t even have wrinkles but facial expressions and, also for the record, “the two are not the same.”

See expressions lead to wrinkles, which is why the real key to anti-aging is being emotionally dead inside.

Doc McKeown points to the recent Faux-Tox scandal (totes ©ing that) starring Sheena Upton as Kerry Campbell, the negligent mother who doses her 8-year-old daughter with Botox to keep her smooth as the day she was born — which in this case was not too long ago — as a case of society’s unhealthy relationship with the needle.

While Campbell née Upton was only doing it all for the publicity (See! I’m a good mom, give me my kid back!), McKeown likens the drug to a status symbol for the younger generation — just look at the not-at-all disturbing Teen-Toxing craze.

Bling, Benzes, Birkins and Botox.

But beauty, the doctor insists, is like a fine wine that gets better with age…and he is about to pop a cork over Liz Taylor in her mid-30s:

“While Taylor was clearly always a beautiful woman from her teens onwards, arguably her looks did not reach their peak until she was in her mid-thirties. Had Botox been available to Taylor in her early twenties, would she have ever reached that same level of mature beauty for which she will now always be remembered? I suspect probably not.”

Meanwhile, someone give Dr. Darren McKeown a box of tissues, a copy of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and close the doors. [The Telegraph]

- First season DVDs of Glee and How I Met Your Mother. Glee’s Rachel Berry is the perfect example of what can go wonderfully right and horribly wrong with the child of two gay dads, while fellow real-life gay dad Neil Patrick Harris became America’s Sweetheart again thanks to How I Met Your Mother, or as I like to refer to it, The Only Reasonably Watchable Show on CBS.

- Origins Anti-aging serum. If there’s one thing gay dad needs is the reassurance that though he may be getting old, he’s still looks better than the other moms on the PTA. Sure, without the stress of childbirth he’s already ahead of the game, but why not put off the Botox train’s imminent arrival with Origins Plantscription Anti-aging serum. It’s clinically proven to help fight and reverse advanced visible aging signs…the gift that keeps on (subtly) hinting.

- Patti Lupone: A Memoir. Every gay dad needs to be in touch with his inner diva; it’s like his animal spirit, the guiding light of the days of the one life he has to live. And Patti Lupone can get anyone in painfully close contact with their inner diva. Her autobiography is basically one artistic triumph followed by one hysteric diva meltdown followed by one near-career-ending fall – lather, rinse, repeat. Give dad the drama he craves this Mother’s Day, or he’ll happily provide his own.

- Duckie Brown classic plaid shorts. Nothing says Happy Mother’s Day like good ole men’s tailoring. Ladies, am I right? Okay, maybe that’s not necessarily true, but gay dads are not traditionally honored on Mother’s Day, so why not give them something equally non-traditional? Duckie Brown adds more than a fair share of sass and slouch to men’s clothing and though my first instinct draws me to these drop-crotch pants, for gay dad a pair of fun, fashionable shorts that can take him from the grill to the bath house and back again seems a tad more appropriate.

- Tickets to Priscilla, Queen of the Desert on Broadway. With reviews like this: “Every conceivable surface has been decked with sequins, spattered with colored lights, plastered in mirrored chips or trimmed in feathers and fringe,” how could anyone resist? A feel-good musical about the original mothers of the world — drag queens — in a series of outlandish costumes and a disco ball’s worth of dance-pop hits, a trip to Priscilla will give gay dad a Mother’s Day he won’t likely forget…particularly with the number of buff, nearly naked go-go boys traipsing about. You gotta give daddy what he wants.

- I’m loving Tyra Banks: Harvard student. She lives in the dorms, eats in the cafeteria and wakes up daily at 730 for study sessions with her classmates. Not only that, she’s never too busy to help out her fellow students : “I’m giving a billionaire that has a business that’s been in his family for 300 years—I’m giving him advice about strategy! Or how to penetrate the American market!” And don’t forget, how to sit without sitting. [NY Mag]

- Riccardo Tisci would have turned down his post at Givenchy had it not been for one pesky little factor: his mom. Turns out Mama Tisci was on the verge of selling her house and moving into a retirement home: “When I heard that it was like a knife in my heart. I felt like such a failure, that my mother had to sell the house of my father whom I don’t remember. And then I went to Paris, and they showed me a contract with all these zeros on it, and it was like help from God. I thought ‘If I sign this, my mother will never have to worry again.’ So I signed it.” Sometimes all it takes is a mother’s guilt. [Vogue UK]

After injecting 18 rabbits with a little Bo-Bo, Canadian scientists observed that not only did limbs injected suffer “muscle wastage of up to 50 percent,” but limbs not injected also experienced muscle loss.

On the bright side, those rabbits looked stunning in their backless Versaces.

This study suggests that pricking your forehead with a needle full of Botox could cause “muscle weakness or muscles turning into fat in other parts of [the] body.” Looks like it’s decision time, ladies. Do you want to  look fat or old?

But maybe you won’t have to choose as long as you keep up monthly lipo appointments. Yes, that’s it. Fuck you, Father Time! You’ll never win!

Not if any actress over 40 has anything to say about it.

Below are the confessions of the work the “ladies” have had done:

Kim Richards: “I did a little Botox at one point with my sister, and I did have implants that I had taken out. They made them too big, and I couldn’t see my feet. Not that I loved my toes, but I would like to glance at them now and then.”

Kyle Richards: “I did have my nose done. I have done Botox. My husband doesn’t know, but he does now … But these are my own boobs!”

Adrienne Maloof: “Botox, fillers, boobs, nose … No lips … No cheek bones.”

Lisa Vanderpump: “I plead the fifth … Okay, I have a bucket of Botox in my face!”

Taylor Armstrong: “Just start from the top, right? You should’ve seen what I looked like before – oh my God! I mean, scary! So yeah … filler [lips], Botox. And I had my boobs done.”

Camille Grammer: “Oh God, what have I done? Let’s see, obviously I’ve had a breast augmentation and … Botox absolutely — just a crock full of Botox.”

Yes, we know that plastic surgery always plays a major factor. But some stars continue to look younger than ever even without all the botox and face lifts. One pretty observant individual threw together a list of nine celebs who look just as youthful even after countless years of stardom. Some of them really do look exactly the same. Check out the list here!

Though Ms. Crawford has repeatedly denied any serious plastic surgeries, she has recently admitted to having had botox. The former model said she had visited a cosmetic surgeon for years; however, she has yet to partake in the botox for about ten years since.

Cindy has said that “Because people have such expectations of what they are going to find when they see [her], that brings added pressure to fight the ageing process.” But even with those pressures Cindy seems to think she’s “holding together pretty good”. I can’t say too many people would disagree!

If you were ever thinking of getting some botox, now there’s yet another reason to reconsider. Reportedly to make up for the immense health care issues, some folks over at the Senate Finance Committee were considering adding a 10 percent surtax onto cosmetic surgeries and procedures. Though they think it may be a great solution, the tax isn’t expected to follow through.

Allergen, the company who gave the world Botox, is creating a drug called Lumigan that makes eyelashes grow. It’s awaiting FDA-approval, as are we.

According to the FDA, it may cause the skin around the eye to darken, or the eyes could change color altogether. Not exactly the cosmetic wonders I’d like to experience. I’ll stick with mascara or lash extensions, but if the FDA approval goes through, expect to see people rush to their doctors in search of longer lashes. Will you be one of them?
