Janet Jackson appears to be following in the pumped-up footsteps of the likes of Cameron Diaz, Madonna and Paris Hilton if her bulging biceps onstage in Los Angeles last Friday night are anything to go by. The 44-year-old looked like she’d been doing some serious working out as she played live at the city’s Gibson Amphitheatre in a tight white vest and jeans. The star is currently promoting her Number Ones album with her current Up Close And Personal tour, which Janet describes as her largest ever. Janet meanwhile is still promoting her book True You, which focuses on her self-image and self-esteem struggles. The singer has long suffered yo-yoing weight, and though perhaps a few pounds heavier now than when she was in her 20s, she looks incredibly toned.

Reality TV star Kimora Lee Simmons tells how she lost 25lbs

Former supermodel Kimora Lee Simmons has regained her pre-baby body almost two years after giving birth to her third child. The 35-year-old, who is married to actor and model Djimon Hounsou, has revealed she has lost 25 pounds since welcoming her son Kenzo in May 2009. The fashion designer and former CEO of Baby Phat clothing last week told an American website: “I shed the fat by not eating. But I don’t like to tell the kids that so they think they shouldn’t eat.” However, she was quick to clarify the comments after becoming concerned they were taken out of context. She said: “It’s taken me almost a year to lose close to 25 pounds and I did it through healthy diet and exercise. I’m a bit smaller, but still curvy and 100 per cent healthy and proud of my body, and the time it has taken me to undergo this personal journey for myself.”

Lips don’t lie: Shakira seals love for footballer Gerard Pique with public kiss

She confirmed to the world that she was dating Gerard Pique when she posted up a picture of them together on Twitter — but Shakira has now given a very public demonstration of her love for the footballer. The Hips Don’t Lie star locked lips with the Barcelona striker in his home city as they enjoyed an alfresco lunch in the Spanish sun last Friday. She confirmed that the two were an item last month when she posted up a picture, saying: “I present to you my sunshine.” The Colombian singer and the 24-year-old FC Barcelona centre-back became the focus of intense media attention at the start of March when photographs of the pair emerged holding hands. For weeks, Shakira insisted they were just good friends before finally fessing up that she was dating the Barcelona-born ace.
