America Ferrera and Eva Longoria Bump It Up at Golden Globes Red Carpet

January 7, 2018 by JJ

The stars came out tonight for the 2018 Golden Globes Awards.

In solidarity with the “Me Too” movement which involves women (and men) coming forward with sexual assault and harassment allegations, almost all of the women attended the show in black.

That movement spawned a “Time’s Up” initiative where celebrities have vowed to take up the charge of women, like the average worker, who may not have the same resources as wealthy and influential Celebs.

We were happy to see two first-time moms-to-be and Latinas, America Ferrera and Eva Longoria show off their bumps on the carpet as well.

Bryce Howard’s Red Carpet Picks Give Us One More Reason to Love her

January 30, 2017 by JJ

more-reasons-to-love

The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards went down last night at The Shrine Expo Hall in Los Angeles, California and has been notable this year because of its diversity among winners (Viola Davis for Best Actress and Denzel Washington for Best Actor in Fences, Hidden Figures for Best Cast and Mahershala Ali for Best Actor Supporting Role in Moonlight).

But it was noteworthy in the fashion world for another reason.

Bryce Dallas Howard, who we’ve featured in the past for her red carpet wardrobe, is buzzed about for the $309 dollar social impact dress she wore on the carpet. The red-sequined figure hugging gown is made by a company called Dress the Population which donates half of its proceeds to charity.This month they’re donating proceeds for this dress (not Howard’s) to The Trevor Project, a national 24-hour, toll free confidential suicide hotline for gay and questioning youth.

This not the first time Howard, who was nominated for her performance in an episode of Netflix‘s Black Mirror, has opted to skip the expensive couture and custom designed dresses many stars wear on the red carpet.

In December, the Twilight saga series star wore a dreamy yellow Top Shop gown to the Critics Choice Awards, which sells for just $240 at Topshop. At the 2016 Golden Globes, the daughter of famed actor turned director Ron Howard, wore a blue Jenny Packham gown that she bought herself at Neiman Marcus the week of the show.

These choices are awesome because in a world where many people clamor to imitate celeb style, she makes it achievable for fashion conscious women of all socio-economic levels. Also, you got to give it up to her for giving back while looking fabulous! Score!

More reasons to love Bryce! Swoon!

All about Idris Elba’s pregnant girlfriend Naiyana Garth who wore Tiffany Rose at the Golden Globes

January 14, 2014 by JJ

Long Walk to Freedom actor Idris Elba attended the 71st annual Golden Globe awards Sunday, January 12 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills with his longtime pregnant girlfriend Naiyana Garth.

Elba was nominated for Best Actor in the Motion Picture Drama for his role in the Freedom, the Nelson Mandela biopic and for Best Actor Miniseries or Television Film for his role in the BBC criminal drama Luther. He didn’t walk away with either Sunday night. There’s always SAG and the Oscars, both coming up where he is also nominated.

Nonetheless, the British actor has much to look forward to with Garth who looked radiant in a black floor-length Tiffany Rose gown.

The designer, which we have featured before, has dressed our other current Bellyitch Bumpwatch moms-to-be Princess Madeliene of Sweden and No Doubt lead vocalist Gwen Stefani.

Garth, a fellow Brit and celebrity make-up artist, tweeted to a friend in early October about being very early in her pregnancy.

She later deleted the account.

Despite being seen out and about at various events with Garth sporting a noticeable bump, Elba who stars in this Summer’s Thor only confirmed the news two months later in December.

This will be their first child together. Elba has an 11-year-old daughter named Isan from his marriage to ex-wife Dormowa Sherman. They live in Atlanta.

Garth reportedly attended Waldegrave School for Girls in London, then West Thames College in West London., Hello Beautiful recently noted., adding that Garth’s career in make-up artistry started with humble beginnings at local mall counters. She worked her way up in the business to eventually to work on the faces of Jamie Oliver, Rupert Everett, Simon Bird, Freddie Fox, and Elba, hence how they met.

Kerry Washington confirms pregnancy at Golden Globes red carpet

January 13, 2014 by JJ

EDITED: After refusing to confirm her pregnancy for months, Scandal actress Kerry Washington hit the red carpet to tonight’s 71st annual Golden Globes cupping her growing bump, wearing a light mint green Balenciaga gown with matching clutch, Casadei shoes, and Fred Leighton jewels.

The soft pink lips were well set off with subtle nut brown lids.

“I have the best date of the night — my little accessory,” Washington said of her bump in a brief interview with Ryan Seacrest during E!’s red carpet pre-show.

The mom-to-be is up for a Globe for the Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series-Drama at the event held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.

Washington and new husband of under a year NFL player Nnamdi Asomugha are expecting their first child after marrying last June 2013 in Idaho.

Rumors began in September that the couple were expecting starting on last year’s Primetime Emmy Awards red carpet when interviewers took note that she refused to answer questions and appeared a bit green.

Tonight’s belly caressing pose confirms it! She should be between 6 to 7 months along based on reports.

Congrats!

Bump Watch: Kristen Bell talks adoption joke on Chelsea Lately (VIDEO)

February 7, 2013 by JJ

Super cute mom-to-be Kristen Bell was on Chelsea Lately with comedienne Chelsea Handler this week in all her glorious baby bump having self. She was looking quite adorable in a see through flowy floral chiffon peasant top over super seductive leather pants and leather wedge booties! Feminine and sexy. Love it!

During the show, she addressed all the crazy feedback she and fiance Dax Shepard got when they joked on the Golden Globe Awards red carpet that they were planning on giving up their baby for adoption.

“Listen comedy comes from the absurd and when you hear the unexpected that means its a joke…I mean obviously we’re not giving it up for adoption,” Bell said about getting some negative responses, and later joked. “And no one called so we got no takers!”

Funny. Love her. So snarky. Love!

Bump Watch: Kristen Bell wows on Golden Globes Red carpet

January 14, 2013 by JJ

Mom-to-be Kristen Bell wowed on the red carpet last night at the 70th Golden Globe Awards held at The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Maryland.

The House of Lies actress looked fab in a gorgeous Jenny Packham gown with a keyhole back from the Spring 2013 collection. I loved the look even though it looked like it overwhelmed her tiny frame a wee bit. The beadwork and embroidery are exquisite. It almost looks like a jacket which frames the bodice. I’m digging the dainty, tussled pony tail with spiral tufts of hair framing her face, though am not sure it went well with a flowing dress. The hair with a shorter skirt dress maybe.

But overall, her make up looked great and I am loving the parents-to-be love on the red carpet and fiance Dax Shepard planted a big one on her lips.

Awww!!

December 14, 2012 by JJ

Mom -to-be and Homeland actress Claire Danes has managed to keep a low profile all pregnancy. She is able to keep her growing bump covered under coats and wraps while living in New York City in the Winter and filming her hit HBO series. The 2012 Emmy Award winner has more reasons to celebrate. She just picked up a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress for her role on that show as well.

She managed to shoot most of her scenes and only recently, in October, started using a slim body double since her pregnancy was NOT written into the show. She and husband Hugh Dancy are expecting their first child together early next year.

All pregnancy long, she has kept it low frills, casual and comfortable. Here’s a walk down some of her looks over the past few months.
