MANCHESTER, England — Hope Solo met with the coach and captains of the U.S. women’s soccer team Sunday to discuss her latest outburst of candor, a Twitter rant that did no good for the image of the squad and distracted from preparations for the upcoming game against North Korea in the Olympic tournament.
Coach Pia Sundhage said Solo will not be disciplined for the series of tweets that criticized former U.S. player Brandi Chastain’s commentary during the NBC broadcast of the Americans’ 3-0 win over Colombia on Saturday.
“We had a conversation: If you look at the women’s national team, what do you want (people) to see? what do you want them to hear?” Sundhage told reporters at the team hotel. “And that’s where we do have a choice – as players, coaches, staff, the way we respond to certain things.”
Solo rattled off four tweets following Saturday’s game, upset over Chastain’s criticisms of the team’s defensive play.
“Its 2 bad we cant have commentators who better represents the team&knows more about the game,” tweeted Solo. she also told Chastain to “lay off commentating about defending” and goalkeeping “until you get more educated” and “the game has changed from a decade ago.”
Those are hardly the type of positive comments the naturally upbeat Sundhage likes to hear, especially in the middle of one of the sport’s biggest showcases.
“On the field, it’s OK to make a mistake. There’s no such thing as a perfect game,” Sundhage said. “And sometimes you make a mistake outside the field as well. Myself as well. I’ve regretted that I’ve said that or whatever, but at the end of the day if you have good teammates and recognize it and say something that we are proud of, then it is easier to prepare for the next game – because it’s all about the next game.”
The meeting with Solo took place after the team arrived in Manchester, where the Americans (2-0) will play the North Koreans on Tuesday in a game that will determine pairings for the quarterfinals. Co-captain Abby Wambach said the meeting lasted about five minutes.
The team said will Solo be available for comment Monday, following a walkthrough at old Trafford. she did take to Twitter again on Sunday, however, to respond to a reporter’s tweet that she wouldn’t be disciplined.
“discipline? Ha! For what! never even a topic! We talked about our team deserving the best!” she tweeted.
Chastain, one of the most accomplished players in U.S. team history, refused to be drawn into the fray.
“I’m here to do my job, which is to be an honest and objective journalist at the Olympics, nothing more than that,” said Chastain, who earned 192 caps from 1988-2004 and is best known for scoring the decisive penalty kick in the World Cup final in 1999.
Wambach said the meeting focused on the goal of maintaining a “bubble” around the team during the Olympics.
“We just wanted to get on the same page on the things that we are focused on,” Wambach said. “And the things that we’re going to be talking about, whether it be in the media or behind closed doors with your teammates. … We have to appreciate different people’s personalities and their opinions. However, we also want to create a bubble. We want to create some sort of symmetry in terms of what we’re doing here and why we’re here, and that’s what we’re all about.”
Wambach also noted that TV commentators have nothing to do with winning gold medals.
“At the end of the day, none of it matters,” Wambach said. “Because what really does matter is the results.”
Sundhage said she didn’t tell Solo to stop tweeting or to tone it down.
“I don’t punish people,” Sundhage said. “And I don’t know what’s right and wrong.”
Five years ago, Solo expressed an opinion that made her the recipient of the starkest punishment ever dealt to a U.S. women’s national team player. she was essentially kicked off the squad at the 2007 World Cup after she criticized then-coach Greg Ryan for benching her for the semifinals.
She made her way back onto the team to become arguably the best goalkeeper in team history, anchoring the gold-medal run at the 2008 Olympics and winning the golden glove award for top goalie at last year’s World Cup in Germany.
Now she’s a media superstar, highlighted by her appearance on “Dancing with the Stars” last fall, and she hasn’t stopped making waves. Three weeks ago, she had what is believed to be the first positive drug test in the history of the program, receiving a warning over the banned substance Canrenone. she said it resulted from a premenstrual medication prescribed by her doctor.
Solo was also one of several athletes quoted extensively in an ESPN The Magazine story about sex in the athletes village during the Beijing Olympics and has also been promoting her book “A Memoir of Hope,” scheduled for release two days after the London Games.
Nevertheless, Sundhage said she’s not concerned about Solo’s focus.
“Hope is different,” Sundhage said. “What I see is one of the best goalkeepers in the world. If you look back, she’s been dancing with the stars, she’d been in a lot of media, she’s done this and that, and you would think, ‘Well, will she ever come back to the game and will this be a distraction?’ If you look at the way she played the first two games, I would say no. She’s ready. she prepared. she wants to win, and she know what she needs to do.”
a former EMC administrative assistant pleaded not guilty yesterday in Middlesex Superior Court that she embezzled about $220,000 from the company.
Madeline Vinton, 35, of Webster, pleaded not guilty at her arraignment yesterday. Clerk Magistrate Michael Sullivan ordered her held on $7,500 bail.
Vinton was an administrative assistant for EMC in Hopkinton when, in February, company investigators noticed travel and expense activities that did not match her job, authorities said.
they contacted Hopkinton Police who, along with investigators from the Middlesex district attorney’s office, investigated Vinton.
Authorities say Vinton used a company-issued credit card to spend more than $155,000 on personal expenses, such as limousine rides, Boston Celtics tickets, hotels, meals, rental cars and plastic surgery.
Vinton also used her boss’s credit card to charge nearly $12,500; a separate EMC procurement card to steal more than $6,000 while also claiming almost $49,000 worth of overtime she didn’t work, authorities said.
when confronted, Vinton admitted to the thefts, authorities said.
Vinton is due back in court on Aug. 29 for a pretrial conference.

Celebrities and media figures are known to have a pronounced effect on their fans, and their audience and their death may be just as important as their work. A new study is showing how the death of celebrities can have a direct effect on fans.
With the growing rise social media, fans have the opportunity to feel a little closer to their favorite celeb. When the world loses such people, it almost becomes second nature for fans to express their grievance on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr or any other social media platform. with the loss of Whiteny Houston, Michael Jackson and Adam Yauch of Bestie Boys, fans exploded with grief on social media websites.
According to Robert Harris, professor of psychology at Kansas State University, each response to celebrity death reveals the significant realities of how people build relationships with their favorite media persona.
Harris has studied a number of traits relating to psychology and communications and his focus has been on how people obtain information from the media. within his studies, Harris has also observed how watching certain media with different media personalities can influence one’s experience, not to mention how people respond and remember a certain media experience.
Harris also states that people develop relationships with celebrities similar to the approach they would have taken with people they know in real life. this phenomenon is known as the parasocial interaction. this one-sided relationship is regularly perceived between celebrities and their fans. Parasocial interaction was first recorded near the 1950s during the rise of television and movies making fictional characters more realistic.

Harris also reveals the loss of a celebrity has a clear difference between the loss of a family member.
The use of social media has become therapeutic for those devoted fans, but also fellow celebrities who mourn the loss of their associates.
There are no social structure and support for grieving the loss of a media personality, he stresses it is very different compared to losing a member such as one’s grandmother, and social media outlets can be used as a therapy for grieving the loss of celebrity.
She was distracted, though, and I could see she wasn’t really listening to me.
"Dad," she interrupted. "Blake rang today and wanted me to meet him in a hotel room. I didn’t go," she added hurriedly, as she saw my expression darken, "because I didn’t like something about the phone call. it didn’t sound right to me, a set-up or something, and I told him I weren’t going."
I had to ask her: "what made you smell a rat?"
"I don’t know, Dad," she said.
I reckoned she did, but she wasn’t going to tell me. While I was pleased that she had not only declined to meet Blake but told me about it, I was certain she still harboured strong feelings for him.
I was right. when Blake had been released from prison, it had been under a licence that was conditional on him not leaving Sheffield. but he had been coming to London often to see his new girlfriend. Amy was unaware of this until eventually Blake told her what he’d been doing. I suspect this was only because the newspapers had got hold of the story and he wanted to tell her before she read about it.
Around this time my friend Dr Phil Rich, a clinical psychologist and behavioural therapist who also deals with alcohol-dependent patients, was over from America on holiday.
On September 8, I was with him when I got a call from Andrew (Amy’s bodyguard). he told me Blake was at the house in Hadley Wood. Phil and I jumped into my taxi and drove straight over. we arrived around 10.30am. Amy was in the kitchen wearing just a T-shirt and knickers. the security guys were used to her walking around like this and took no notice, but Amy was shocked to see me and started shouting, "oh, no, oh, no".
"Where is he? Where’s Blake?" I asked.
"No, Dad, no, Dad," she kept shouting.
"He’s upstairs in bed," Andrew told me.
As I was climbing the stairs, Amy grabbed one of my legs and I ended up dragging her with me as she kept shouting, "No, Dad, no, Dad. Don’t hit him, Dad."
I managed to get upstairs, with Amy in tow, and sure enough, there he was, lying in Amy’s bed. I got hold of him and said, "get out of bed and f … off!"
Behind me, I heard Amy still shouting, "No, Dad, no, Dad, no, Dad."
Blake got up. "Amy doesn’t want me to go," he said.
"I don’t care what Amy wants. get out!" I yelled.
Amy was still shouting and I told her it had nothing to do with her. I actually wanted Blake to hit me so that I could legitimately lay into him. I tried to provoke him: "you and your family are scum," I said, thinking that surely he’d hit me if I said that.
But he didn’t. I have to hand it to him: he was as cool as a cucumber. I don’t know if drugs had made him that way, but in any event, he fronted me out. instead he said, "can I have a shower?"
"No," I said. "just get out now, because if you don’t, there’s going to be trouble."
I stood there while he got dressed, with Amy still shouting at me. he went downstairs, followed by Amy and me, and as he opened the front door, where there was a step leading down to the porch, he turned. "how am I going to get to the station?"
"F … ing walk," I said.
"but it’s a mile away."
"too bad!"
Then he had the cheek to turn to Andrew and ask him, "can you give me a lift to the station, mate?"
With that, I gave him a lift all right: I kicked him right up the backside, as hard as I could, and he fell over the step. Amy wanted to go to him but I stopped her and slammed the door.
It was a hell of a scene, but it didn’t take Amy long to calm down. after about 10 minutes it was like nothing had happened. Amy relaxed and we had a good talk. Finally when we’d got the events out of our system, she said, "Dad, let’s go to the East End".
I was still burning over what had happened and now she wanted to go to the East end!
"Amy, you’re really putting me through the mincer today," I said. "I can’t handle it."
She came over and gave me a big hug. how could I refuse her after that? "Come on," she said. "We’ll go and see where Nan and Pop Alec grew up and all that." She went upstairs to get dressed and, after a while, I followed to see if she was all right. I heard her on the phone to one of her friends saying, "Yeah, my dad threw Blake out and kicked him up the a… My dad done his nut, it was fantastic." She was boasting about what I had done and seemed pleased that I’d done it. I crept downstairs, and when Amy finally appeared, she, Phil and I headed off to the East end.
About halfway there, Amy started sweating, panting and shaking. Phil knew straight away what it was: "She’s going into alcohol withdrawal. you need to get her a drink, which will stave off the craving."
"are you kidding?" I asked. "She needs a small amount of alcohol and that will do the trick."
Amy was in a bad way and I was in no position to argue, so I stopped the cab and bought her a miniature bottle of vodka. She drank it and, sure enough, it worked.
We went to Albert Gardens, had a walk round the park in the middle of the square, then went to the Ocean Estate, just around the corner, which was where Phil’s grandparents had lived. we went back to Albert Gardens, and by now the news had spread that Amy was there and quite a lot of people were around. Amy signed autographs and posed for pictures. I leaned back on the cab and watched her, happy with her fans.
"I love people seeing Amy like this," I said to Phil. "They normally only get to see her in the papers and she’s not like that. This is great."
Amy looked at me then and smiled; she was pointing out to the people around her where our family, her grandparents, had lived in Albert Gardens. "They were at number 31, my uncle Percy at number 13." Then she blew me an extravagant kiss.
She was in top form and there were no signs of withdrawal. what had started out as a traumatic day was turning out well after all. it was becoming a day to remember for the right reasons.
As Amy’s 26th birthday approached, the situation with alcohol seemed to be turning. She’d had more sober than drunk days over recent weeks, enough that we started to have a lot more confidence in what she was capable of. Especially after she told (manager) Raye (Cosbert) she wanted to be able to return to the US, to work with her producers, and then "Who knows? Maybe do a few gigs over there." Raye took her to an appointment at the US Embassy, which included a blood test, more in hope than expectation. the appointment went well and he said we’d get a decision within a fortnight. Generally Amy was keeping relatively quiet, playing guitar in her room and, for the most part, staying away from drink.
On September 9, 2009, John Reid told me that their offices had received a letter from Blake’s solicitors with some incredible news. at the end of August, we’d served Georgette (Blake’s mother) with our notice of court proceedings regarding her alleged copyright infringement of Amy’s letters. Blake was now offering to drop all claims against Amy – but only if we agreed to drop our case for copyright infringement against Georgette. when I spoke to Amy about the settlement, she was all for it.
The deal with Blake was finalised towards the end of September.
He agreed not to make any claim on Amy and we agreed not to pursue our case against Georgette. Pity for him he didn’t know that, prior to his offer, we’d been going to offer him £250,000 in a full and final divorce settlement. in the end, he got nothing. My diary sums him up: "He’s a mug."
On October 5, I told Amy that our solicitors had confirmed her divorce from Blake was now final. She told me two-thirds of her was happy about it, the other third wasn’t.
I never managed to get her to explain exactly what she meant, but I assumed it was because he’d recently rented a flat in Sheffield with the money he’d made selling stories to the press.
Though we all hoped Blake was now behind us, I had no illusions that things were going to be totally better.
Around her birthday, Amy had a stretch of drinking days. Finally she checked herself into the London Clinic to dry out. She was going to be there for three days, but the next day a Sun journalist told me they’d heard Amy was in the London Clinic because she had overdosed on drugs. I soon put him straight.
While Amy was in the London Clinic, she had gynaecological tests carried out, and the results showed pre-cancerous cells in her cervix. it sounded worse than it was and we were told that it was relatively simple for it to be kept in check. She had been reassured that it wouldn’t stop her having children.
When I saw Amy in hospital later on, she told me she was thinking about having her breasts enlarged and had discussed it with a doctor that afternoon. (Friend) Tyler (James) was there, too, and told me that while they’d been on St Lucia, Amy had gone on about this a few times, constantly comparing herself to some of the other girls on the beach.
While I don’t approve of plastic surgery per se, I didn’t mind Amy having this done: after I’d heard Tyler’s stories,
I felt it might boost her self-esteem and put an end to her doubts, something I always believed stemmed from her drug use and break-up with Blake.
Amy had her breast implant procedure at the London Clinic on October 8. Afterwards she looked great and her confidence increased as I’d expected.
I went to see Amy the following day and she looked very well. She was a great kid and I’d have done anything for her but sometimes she made me do things for her that I found hard.
"Dad, I need some underwear," she said.
"okay. I’ll go to Marks & Spencer and get you some," I said.
"No, Dad, not Marks. Go to Agent Provocateur."
The fancy lingerie shop? I gulped. "are you kidding? I can’t go in there."
Suffice to say, Amy had her way and I went to Agent Provocateur in Soho, which I found a bit awkward … I would have been embarrassed saying, "I want to buy some knickers for my daughter," so I said they were for my wife.
Amy was delighted with my purchases, but it was a mistake to tell her how embarrassed I had been. She loved the idea of making me squirm and really knew how to wind me up; she’d done it many times over the years and this time my usual response – "Don’t ask me to do this, Amy, ask your girlfriends"- had got me nowhere. the next day she sent me back to buy her a baby-doll nightie.
Amy was great with the nurses and patients at the London Clinic. She had make it her business to get to know people. I’d go in and she’d say, "That’s Dave over there. He’s had an operation on his back. Susan’s been in here for six weeks but she’s going home tomorrow," and things like that. Amy knew all the nurses’ life stories. She had a brilliant memory when sober, and remembered the names of their kids and their favourite music.
In fact, once Amy had learned a name or a date, she never forgot it.
She had a fantastic way with people and the nurses and patients loved her.
While Amy was in the London Clinic, she decided to have a tattoo of the Ace of Spades removed from her finger. She’d had it done when she was with Alex Clare and Blake had never liked it.
The News Of the World decided that she was having it removed because she and Blake had got back together; they ran a story that Amy and Blake had got engaged and were due to marry early in 2010. I didn’t respond to it, but when I next saw Amy I confronted her about it.
Amy and Blake weren’t engaged, but I thought the paper was probably right that Blake was behind her decision to have the tattoo removed. She wouldn’t confirm or deny it, which convinced me that I was right.
Then she told me she wanted to have a nose job – she said she wanted it made smaller, that she hated its shape and that she couldn’t bear to look at herself in the mirror. I went mad. I understood why she had wanted the breast enlargement, but this was ridiculous. when I left, I just felt miserable and depressed.
Amy left the London Clinic on November 25, and the next day I went to see her at the Hadley Wood house. She told me she was lonely, depressed, wanted to be with Blake, and didn’t want to live in Hadley Wood any more.
I told her in no uncertain terms how her family felt about Blake, but I said I could do something about the house. if she wanted to move back to Camden, I’d look into it.
Hearing Blake’s name again demoralised me: I’d thought Amy was starting to move on, but had to admit that she still loved him.
I called Dr Romete later that afternoon and we talked for a long time about Amy’s alcoholism. Once I’d understood a few things, I went online and searched out what I could find about Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and other approaches to helping recovering alcoholics.
The following day Andrew drove Amy to see Blake in Sheffield. the next day Amy told Raye everything was over between her and Blake.
Like Amy’s mood, her relationship with Blake seemed to change daily and it was hard for me to keep up. One day she’d decide it was all over between them, the next she was talking to him on the phone for hours.
When I heard that they were supposedly back together, I could take no more. I drove straight over to Hadley Wood where Amy and I had a terrible row about it. it was one of the worst arguments we had ever had.
I said horrible things and regretted them the minute they were out of my mouth. I can hardly bear to write down the words I hurled at her.
"It’s your choice," I yelled. "if you go with him, you risk losing your family."
Of course, the truth was we would have stuck by her whatever she decided, but at that point I saw this as a disastrous setback.
In Amy’s eyes, Blake could do no wrong, despite the numerous stories he was selling to the press around that time. She was determined to get back with him and there was very little any of us could do about it.
Amy and I could never stay mad at each other for long, though, and we’d soon put the argument behind us. Sadly, we couldn’t move beyond Blake so easily.

Kim Kardashian has more than 15 million Twitter followers, but she is so disdainful of her fans she calls them “gullible,” “stupid imbeciles,” “boring little nobodies” and “pathetic people with no lives of their own.”
The bombshell is reportedly contained in text messages and emails that Kim sent to estranged husband Kris Humphries during their courtship and brief marriage.
Of course, anyone with half a brain knows that Kim has always exploited her fans. she routinely tweets product endorsements to them and has never been known to disclose she is being paid to do so. she even pushes sketchy diet pills on her fans. She’s being sued for false advertising.
The disclosures could be the opening round in a nasty divorce trial between Humphries and Kardashian, who threw the basketballer after just 72 days of marriage… but not before a lavish $18 million wedding.
Humphries claims the marriage was a fraud and he’s seeking an annulment. Kim, whose credibility was severely tarnished by the wedding fiasco, insists she married for love; it just didn’t work out.
The latest report is contained in the always reliable Star magazine (ha!). in public, it notes, Kim always talks of her fans lovingly and calls them her “dolls.”
Kris also plans to reveal that Kim is a plastic surgery junkie. “Kim’s gotten liposuction, three nose jobs, a boob job and work done on her butt,” the magazine’s source claims. “She can’t stop with the plastic surgery and I don’t think she ever will.”
Kim and Kris are scheduled to give depositions in the case this week, which is the start of the evidence gathering process.
“Thank you for all the love today. I’m happy to share this news with you all. I feel like all my dreams are coming true,” Cyrus said, confirming the news, on Twitter. “I love you more today than yesterday but I love you less today than I will tomorrow.”
“I’m so happy to be engaged and look forward to a life of happiness with Liam,” the young actress told US magazine.
But it seems like the real question is: how long will their young love last?
TMZ celebrity gossip site has already posted a front-page “Miley Cyrus Engaged” poll asking people to choose either “Good for her” or “Big mistake” with 66 percent so far spelling doom for the Cyrus-Hemsworth alliance.
General statistics also predict disaster for the freshly engaged couple.
The National Survey for Family Growth reported in March that women and men who get married before they turn 20 years of age have a significantly lower chance of reaching their 20th anniversary compared to those who wait until they are older.
While there are several factors that impact marriage longevity like education level, cohabitation and pregnancy, the general consensus is that those who tie the know after the age of 25 have considerably greater chance of staying married and having a longer marriage.
Research from the National Institute of Mental Health has also found that found that 60 percent of marriages of people between the ages of 20 and 25 end in divorce, twice the average across all over age groups.
Young couples also spend less time trying to mend their relationships before turning to divorce, according to the report.
Examples of a never ending list of past failed young Hollywood relationships also show that the odds are not in the young couple’s favor.
Charlie’s Angels actress Drew Barrymore, who married then 31-year-old Jeremy Thomas, when she was 19, like Cyrus is today, terminated her union the same year.
Home Alone child star Macaulay Culkin and Rachel Miner married each other at age 17 and divorced two years later.
Country singer LeAnn Rimes who married Dean Sheremet at age 19 also divorced, but after a longer period of seven years.
Working Girl star Melanie Griffith, who married actor Don Johnson at 18, divorced, remarried and divorced him again before finally ending their relationship after about seven years.
“Based on statistical information and what’s known about the building of relationship, it’s very hard to view this new engagement with optimism,” said Dr. Toni Thomas Luskin, a human development specialist, psychologist and professor at Touro University Worldwide, according to E! Online. “Then again these people are not average.”
The greatest stressor for a typical couple under the age of 25 is money, but for Cyrus and Hemsworth, time away from each, often imposed by the entertainment industry, would be the greatest cause for tension for the Hollywood pair, Luskin predicted.
Past studies also conducted by the NIMH found that a state of mental maturity is generally reached at age 25, and people younger than 25 generally base their decision off of instincts and emotions rather than objective reasoning.
“They may be lovely, wonderful people with two brains that haven’t finished developing yet,” Luskin said, according to E! Online.
“Their brain development is going to be very different in a few years than it is now. A 19 and 22-year-old are immature in the sense they still can’t quite be as selfless as they recognize they will need to be a few years later. would we choose the same life partner at age 19 or 22 as we would at age 30?”"he added.
Even Cyrus and Hemsworth’s three year relationship has had its ups and downs. after they met in the summer of 2009 on the set of “The last Song” they broke up in August 2010, but reportedly reconciled a month later.
A few months later, the couple split again and reconciled in April 2011.
Sure, there is always a chance things may work out perfectly for the rising stars.
For instance actress Bo Derek from the original 10, married John Derek at 18 and remained his wife until he died, and child bride Courtney Stodden who got married in 2011 to Lost actor Doug Hutchison when she was just 16 years old is still married.
Our number-one goal is to achieve a fresh, rejuvenated look, without sacrificing a man’s natural, masculine appearance.
New York, NY (PRWEB) June 18, 2012
at his thriving plastic surgery practice in New York and New Jersey, Dr. Michael Fiorillo is seeing a growing number of male patients walking through his door. The recent interest seems to be attributed to a fascinating new trend in the world of cosmetic medicine: Dads exploring plastic surgery around Father’s Day.
“Years ago, certain cosmetic procedures were associated only with female patients,” reports Dr. Fiorillo. “Today, that’s simply no longer the case.” This confirms recent data published by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS). According to their 2011 statistics, the number of overall male cosmetic procedures is up a full 16% from the 2000 numbers.
“What’s even more interesting,” explains Dr. Fiorillo, “is that we’re seeing this boom in interest right around Father’s Day.” Seemingly a national trend, this uptick is confirmed in a social media review recently published by aesthetic medicine resource, The Patient’s Guide®. an organizational press release indicates that, “In the last 30 days leading up to Father’s Day, a review of Facebook and Twitter posts indicates that 40% of all social media references to BOTOX® … were now made by men.”
Dr. Fiorillo speculated on what may be driving this new trend. “In today’s difficult job market, a lot of men are definitely turning to cosmetic treatment to stay competitive,” explains Dr. Fiorillo. “Men’s attitudes are also shifting. It’s no longer taboo for a male patient to come in for a plastic surgery consultation.” Dr. Fiorillo is also the doctor behind SoHo’s wildly successful Luminique MedSpa. there, he offers traditional spa services, along with some of the most requested minimally-invasive procedures to date: BOTOX, soft tissue fillers, etc.
Asked about special male considerations, Dr. Fiorillo concluded succinctly: “Men have unique medical needs and cosmetic concerns. Our number-one goal is to achieve a fresh, rejuvenated look, without sacrificing a man’s natural, masculine appearance.”
Luminique is located at 350 Hudson Street in Manhattan and is taking new clients starting immediately. those interested can visit Dr. Fiorillo’s new website at http://www.luminiquemedspa.com/ or call (212) 647-0007 to schedule an appointment.

The 31-year-old insists that she has never had plastic surgery on her behind but critics maintain that she has in fact had implants.
“I would love a bum like yours! If I had a bum like yours I would walk in to a room backwards. how honored are you when people say you have the best bum in the world?” the show’s host Alan Carr, 35, asked Kardashian.
The reality TV personality confirmed that there are “no implants” and welcomed Carr to see for himself.
“You know what a real butt feels like, right?” a giggling Kardashian asked Carr as he approached her.
“It’s weird to think of yourself like that, but I do work out all the time. I also think it’s like an Armenian thing; it runs in the family, and we are all really curvy. so I thank my roots for giving me a big butt!” she said.

Kardashian is often criticized for her fame status with many arguing that she is “famous for being famous” as Carr put it.
“You know, it doesn’t really bother me. I’m pretty realistic: I don’t sing, I don’t dance. I’m not that kind of celebrity. I don’t think reality people get that much respect. I have to get people to like me for being me, not for a script that someone’s written for me,” Kardashian said in response to whether the criticisms affect her.
A growing number of celebrities including actors Daniel Craig and Jon Hamm have openly criticized Kardashian’s fame status arguing that she is talentless and over exposed.
“Being a f—— idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture. You’re rewarded significantly. whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated,” Hamm told Elle magazine U.K.
Kardashian, who is said to be discussing marriage with boyfriend Kanye West despite still being legally married, responded to Hamm’s insults on Twitter.
“Calling someone who runs their own businesses, is a part of a successful TV show, produces, writes, designs, and creates, ‘stupid,’ is in my opinion careless,” Kardashian tweeted.
Our number-one goal is to achieve a fresh, rejuvenated look, without sacrificing a man’s natural, masculine appearance.
