Mo’Nique surprises Golden Globe guests by showing off her hairy legs
Hairy moment: Mo'Nique is accompanied by husband Sidney Hicks as she hitches up her dress to reveal her hirsute calves on the red carpet at the Golden Globes.

Mo’Nique surprises Golden Globe guests by showing off her hairy legs

She may have won a Golden Globe to Best Supporting Actress this week, but larger-than-life actress Mo’Nique won’t be winning any awards for her personal grooming.All grown upJennifer Aniston rekindles her relationship‘I had 10 plastic surgery treatments in one day’

The actress, who picked up the award for her role as an abusive mother in Precious, was pictured hitching up her dress to show off her less than smooth legs on the red carpet at the star-studded event.

Strangely the 42-year-old had well pedicured, smooth feet complete with newly-applied nail varnish, but had neglected to tend to the hair on her legs. But, far from hiding them away, the actress decided to let the world know her legs were unshaven — lifting her silk dress to give them an airing. It is not the first time the actress and comedian, real name Monique Imes, has revealed her lack of grooming.

During a 2006 appearance on US talk show The View, she told host Barbara Walters: ‘I must show America what a real leg looks like … because it’s too much in the morning, every morning, to shave, to cut, you got Band-aids, baby.’

Thankfully, though, she did admit to shaving her armpit hair to avoid what she called “stink”.

In Precious, which also stars singer Mariah Carey as a dowdy social worker, Mo’Nique takes on a harrowing role as the abusive mother of an obese teenager who has twice been impregnated by her own father.

She recently praised Carey on her acting skills in an interview with website Moviefone.com The comedian-turned-actress said: ‘She was amazing. It said it all on her face. It said it, you read it, you felt it, you understood it. She was just, hands down, brilliant.’

It’s not very often you see Jessica Simpson covering up at a red carpet event.

But that’s exactly what the singer did at the premiere of Extraordinary Measures held at the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles.

Jessica kept herself warm in the wintery temperatures wearing a navy blazer over a black polo-neck seater, black jeans and black Louboutin ankle boots. She matched the outfit with a demure bouffant-style hairdo complete with a swept-away fringe and a small silver purse. Although it was still a tight-fitting outfit, it showed the 29-year-old seems to be moving towards a more mature identity as she approaches the big 3-0 later this year.

It had seemed she would never find lasting happiness.

And even this month, 40-year-old Jennifer Aniston suffered the humiliation of seeing former love Vince Vaughn marry an estate agent he met after leaving her.

But now it appears the star has rekindled her relationship with tough guy British actor Gerard Butler. Aniston and the actor most famous for playing Spartan King Leonidas in the CGI movie 300 presented the Best Screenplay award together at the Golden Globes in Los Angeles on Sunday night. And, according to witnesses, afterwards Miss Aniston and Mr Butler, also 40, happily continued to team up together. It first, they drank champagne in the kitchens of The Beverly Hilton Hotel, where the awards had taken place,  before then ‘making out’.

By her own admission, Heidi Montag is ‘beyond obsessed’ with plastic surgery.

So much so that the 23-year-old star of The Hills underwent 10 procedures in just one day in her quest for ‘perfection’.

The reality star, who is hoping to launch a pop career, this week unveiled the startling results after going under the scalpel in November. Heidi was no stranger to surgery – by the time she was 21, Heidi had already had a nose job, collagen lip injections, and implants that turned her A-cups into 32-Cs. But this time around proved more dramatic. In a transformation chronicled by America’s People magazine, she had work done on almost every part of her body, ranging from neck liposuction to a buttock augmentation.
