Definition of a unique, must-see event: one of UK's exclusive private banks organizes a week-long celebration of the British jewelry industry. It doesn't get more classy, more refined or creative than this - and if precious gems and stones are your passion, pack up a suitcase, rob a bank and board a flight... |

It's become pretty clear in recent months that we're living a fully-fledged vintage revival era. Have a look at the latest red carpet looks of the stars, and you'll see that most of the rave reviews from enthusiast style critics go to those ladies whose stylists chose to drape them in vintage gold, fla... |

Sarah Jessica Parker is well known for her rather more eccentric tastes in fashion and for her talent of occasionally pushing the boundaries of fashion and art into a rather risqué territory. Never one to fear making a bold statement with her outfits, Parker has turned herself into a veritable self-styled fashionista... |

Mariah Carey has got to be this planet's most demanding - and annoying - diva. The singer's outrageously narcissistic demands and occasionally absurd pretensions - which she never hesitates to put on display wherever she goes - have turned her into one of the most feared showbiz divas of the day. Although s... |

Last year was a year full of promising and hyped up releases of MMOs. Amongst them, names like Tabula Rasa, City Of Villains, Burning Crusade. Some delivered both financially and critically, while other busted. Recently, there have been reports that NCsoft's Tabula Rasa is in bad financial shape. And now, Hellga... |

Posh Spice is officially my favorite celebrity this week. If there's any sort of news about the Spice Girls, it's definitely got to be about Victoria stirring the pot - and causing nice little controversies to act as diversions and pretexts for her to keep herself in the spotlight. I don't think I'... |

While reading about Friday's "Superhero day" at Google's London office, I remembered my childhood when we all used to wrap our blankies around our shoulders and catch them with a safety pin up front and pretend that we were Batman or Superman, Wonder Woman for the girls and so on and so forth, all dependin... |

Billie Piper - remember her? Well, how could we forget - she sings and acts and... well, there's actually not much else she does apart from that, but wait until you see these photos of her. In fact, I have always been wondering how come Billie actually got to play the part of a hooker - OK, London call girl - na... |

It is perhaps the most worldwide known symbol of England: the Tower Bridge. It is associated with the Tower of London, not to be confused with the London Bridge. During the 18th and 19th centuries, many bridges were built over Thames. In 1750, the old London Bridge had such a weak foundation and was so narrow that it... |

Skype is not something new for you, right? The voice over IP service that eBay bought and couldn't really take profit from and is rumored to be selling it to the highest bidder, namely Google and its mobile platform, Android. Central London residents will be the first to suffer the consequences of eBay's pr... |

Who has ever thought the veteran rock punkers would be back? I was definitely not among the people who ever hoped to see the infamous but ground breaking band (what's left of it, anyway) take to the stage again, but plenty of other people never lost hope - and it's finally happening. And just to make this y... |

This actually doesn't surprise me too much. It was obvious that in the mad, twisted Britney Spears universe there was a different order of things than the one we're used to. And so, sources reveal that Brit apparently doesn't care too much about her kids (well, it doesn't take a genius to figure t... |

I'm starting to believe that her in-laws were right when they demanded that the public and the recording companies ban troubled and notorious drug user Amy Winehouse. At one point, it was suggested that the singer - who despite her extraordinary talent is more famous for being a drug user than a proper singer - ... |

Some mobile phones and service providers are so good that they deserve certification for that. This year's Mobile Choice Awards revealed some pretty expected winners in some categories, but also came with some surprises. And the phone of the year is not iPhone, but Samsung G600.Nokia has been designated the hand... |

Jordan, ladies and gentlemen, is officially orange. No, she's not in jail, although I would think that there should be some sort of law punishing her for abusing her skin and allowing it to be of that horribly fake-tanned color. Jordan and her hubby Peter Andre attended a birthday party in London over the weeken... |

No, relax, we're not starting a modern saga in seven thick volumes about the life and antics of Victoria Adams, aka Posh Spice, aka Victoria Beckham (who apparently also likes to be known as 'VB" lately - and that I'm afraid does sound dreadful). I'm simply mentioning some of the things that have ... |

I know, I know - we've all pretty much had it with the amount of Jennifer Lopez pregnancy rumors these past weeks. After a friend of hers told the media that J. Lo was indeed expecting a baby and that an echo had confirmed a pregnancy (there was even word of her possibly having twins after resorting to in vitro ... |

The latest Halo news is that the Westminster council didn't allow a midnight launch of the latest title in the series, scheduled for a September 26 release. It turns out that the huge number of fans that will be present at the launch is the main reason for this decision. Some sort of riot is feared and no one w... |

Amy Winehouse has been lying low over the past week and ever since she returned from her holiday in Santa Lucia her health seemed to have taken a turn for the better. The troubled singer who turned 24 over the weekend made a triumphant return on stage at the Mercury Prize award in London and was also seen at her frie... |

The only thing I can say (the only thing I was able to say for about an hour after seeing these photos) is "oh my...". I might have said something else after that, but I can't remember on account of me fainting. In fact, I was just having some major conscience issues here, seeing how I should have put a NSFW tag... |

If we were to judge Keira based on the things she's been saying lately, then you'd say she's one of the most miserable people alive. I mean, she hates being famous, she hates some of her fellow celebrities and she hates people holding her as a role model and wondering about her (virtually non-existent)... |

No matter how hard I try, I still can't manage to shake all of that naïve hopefulness that makes a part of me still believe that Britney will make a comeback, Lindsay Lohan will enter a convent and Victoria Beckham will have a solo album that will break all the charts and reach number one in both the States and ... |

Games can put the player in anyone's shoes, whether it's a gangster, a police officer, a SWAT team member or an alien. You can be either the bad guy or the good guy, but generally it's the good guy the one everyone wants to be. What if I told you though, that Focus Home Interactive and Frogwares are ro... |
