Pamela Anderson thinks that her breasts are not her best asset, adding that they are so overrated.

She insisted that her best feature is her smile, and everything else is an illusion, the Sun reported.

As the former Baywatch star was participating in the new season of Dancing On Ice, there was no denying that the intense ice skating training has left her in remarkable form.

She said that she has never been in this kind of shape in her life, with her thighs rippling with muscles.

Despite her enthusiasm, however, she was voted off the show this week.

Heidi Klum, who has graced many magazine shoots sans clothing, has said that when a model has a good body, photographers generally ask her to lose more clothes but one has to be careful and say a strong no.

The 39-year-old supermodel asserted that models can quickly end up not wearing much clothing if they're not strong enough to say no, especially when they are young. "Not everyone is cool and has your best interests (at heart)," the Huffington Post quoted her as saying.

The mother-of-three praised photographer Rankin for making sure her shoots, which were on the more naked side, did not look raunchy but sexy and classy.

Padma Lakshmi has revealed her mantra for maintaining her fabulous figure.

The 42-year-old cook-book author wrote on her website that she had a little poem that kept her on track, when she needed to lose weight -- "No meat, no sweets, no wheat, no cheese, no alcohol, no fried food," the Daily Mail reported.

She confessed that she had followed this regimen for the entire month of October and managed to lose weight without doing any exercise.

She admitted that the guidelines were very strict and people couldn't even eat a crumb of toast, but said that it was a healthy and mindful way to lose weight in a small time frame.

The former wife of author Salman Rushdie wrote that white meat like fish, turkey, or chicken breast were acceptable in diet, but there was absolutely no red meat allowed.

Padma asserted that eating small amounts of potatoes or rice were also fine, but should be kept to a minimum and if people followed this poem for the entire month of January, not only would they feel clearheaded but would also lose weight.

Jessica, who has donned them on-screen -- most famously in 2003 film Honey -- said that she is pretty confident about ditching hotpants.

The mother of two is also unwilling to go back to one aspect of '80s power dressing, as she asserted that she doesn't like oversize shoulder pads.

Courtney Cox has revealed that she has used Botox and other anti-aging treatments in a bid to turn back the hands of time, as she admits she is scared of getting old.

The 48-year-old actress, who covers the premiere issue of New You Magazine, has admitted in the accompanying interview that she is game for anything in order to prolong the inevitable, which includes getting anti-ageing treatments, Us Magazine reported.

The Cougar Town actress said that she is a big laser believer, as she thinks it to be the wave of the future.

Cox said that she just did Ulthera, which is supposed to produce collagen, and also revealed her plans to do Fraxel, by which she will get rid of all the brown spots off her arms, chest and face.

The Friends star spoke candidly about taking extra care of her skin by moisturising evetyday and trying to drink 64 ounces of water on a daily basis.

On talking about turning 50 in 2015, the mother of one told the magazine that she doesn't look forward to it, as it will be brutal and she asserts that its hard because of the fact that there's a certain age beyond which one can't have kids anymore.
