<p>The pair first went on a date to the movies, and recently went to lunch in New York City at Serafina restaurant as their second.</p>
<p>Kim (who apparently only dates people with names that start with &#8216;K&#8217;) and Kanye garnered a huge crowd of onlookers and paparazzi during their date, as expected.  The couple has been reportedly together for years now, and it&#8217;s a media frenzy now that they are out in the open.</p>
<p>Nothing like a nice, romantic lunch date with hundreds of paparazzi watching and documenting your every move.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://blastmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/2010-09-14-COVER-BrooklynDeckerforPageSixMagazine-560x746.jpg" alt="" title="2010-09-14 COVER-BrooklynDeckerforPageSixMagazine" width="560" height="746" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-48372" /></p>
<p>In the September 14 issue of Page Six Magazine, free inside the New York Post, steamy supermodel and tennis wife Brooklyn Decker poses for her first ever shoot on the Brooklyn Bridge and pays homage to her home borough. In the article, Brooklyn talks sex appeal, her marriage, and those Jennifer Aniston rumors and the borough she and hubby, Andy Roddick, call home.</p>
<p><strong>On being Brooklyn Decker:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;A producer recently gave me this weird compliment. He said, â€˜You&#8217;re surprisingly unsexy. In film and pictures you turn it on and give the look, and then in person you&#8217;re a totally different human being.&#8217; Which is good, because I don&#8217;t want to be Brooklyn Decker all the time.&quot;</p>
<p><strong>On living in Brooklyn:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;Coming home after a job and hearing honking, I just needed to get out of Manhattan.  And we have a dog, Billie Jean, and we wanted her to have space. I grew up in North Carolina, and we spend a lot of our time in Austin, Texas, so Brooklyn is a happy medium. You have Manhattan living, but you still get the neighborhood feel. I&#8217;m a total sucker. Now every time I land at JFK or LaGuardia I get so excited, whereas before I used to get stressed out. [Also] Barneys Co-Op is coming and I&#8217;m so excited.  It&#8217;s symbolic of how much Brooklyn has changed, even from like five years ago.&quot;</p>
<p><strong>On being married at 23 years old:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;It wasn&#8217;t weird for me.  My mom got married when she was 19, and my husband&#8217;s parents got married youngâ€”in their 20s. And both sets of parents are still together. We&#8217;re so lucky. We had that influence around us, and basically, it came down to the fact that neither of us had to get married. We both were successful on our own, we both had our own income, we both had our friends, but it&#8217;s just what we wanted. It was never part of my plan to get married young, but we did it because we really wanted to. We saw no other way.&quot;</p>
<p><strong>On Andy&#8217;s celebritiy crushes:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;Andy definitely has crushes. He loves women in their forties and fifties. He loves Christie Brinkley and Diane Lane. A woman who&#8217;s graceful and has it all together. So not me.&quot;</p>
<p><strong>On the world of high fashion:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;When I started out, I wanted to be that tiny runway girl, but I&#8217;m not super skinny.  I have boobs. I&#8217;m very all-American. Quirky was definitely in, which I find quite beautiful, but that&#8217;s not what I am. In fashion, there needs to be something unique, and I wasn&#8217;t edgy. Plus, I&#8217;d walk in and be like, â€˜Hey guys!&#8217; with a big smile on my face. And they&#8217;d be like, â€˜You are not cool. You are too nice.&#8217; I got a lot of, â€˜If you want to walk a runway, there is a standard that you have to fit. They&#8217;re not gonna change the standard for you.&#8217; But funnily enough, the second I started accepting that this is who I am, I started working a ton.&quot;</p>
<p><strong>On the Jennifer Aniston rumors:</strong></p>
<p>&quot;I don&#8217;t know where that stuff comes from. Two people fighting is much more interesting than two people getting along. But I find it disappointing that people&#8217;s first instinct is to pit two women against each other. You get a few bad apples in there, but overall women do root for each other and want to help each other. Jen is such a dollâ€”she is such a girl&#8217;s girl. Guys are terrified that if all the women band together we&#8217;ll take over the world, so they&#8217;re trying to keep us apart.&quot;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Followers of &#8220;I&#8217;m a Celebrity. Get Me Out of Here.&#8221; already know Heidi and Spencer Pratt &#8212; a.k.a. Speidi &#8220;&quot; have left the show. But now, having been starved for attention, the couple is now complaining that they were starved for food. </p>
<p>According to TMZ.com, Heidi said they were kept in a dark room for over 24 hours, with nothing to eat but water, rice and beans. One anonymous cast member even went so far as to compare the experience to being a prisoner at Guantanamo Bay. Reports also said that Heidi was taken to a hospital and diagnosed with a gastric ulcer. </p>
<p>On Monday night&#8217;s two-hour episode of the show, Speidi attempted a comeback, but was rejected by fellow contestants. Spencer is planning to sue NBC, but ITV Studios (producer of the show) has denied any mistreatment. Even the couple&#8217;s publicist has stated that no torture occurred, though Stephanie Pratt has said otherwise. </p>
<p>An inside source has also dismissed the allegations to the Los Angeles Times, saying, &#8220;They were not starved or tortured, and there were just normal bugs in there,&#8221; said the source, &#8220;They actually slept most of the time. (And) no one is holding anyone&#8217;s passport either.&#8221; </p>
<p>What are the odds NBC is into torturing its stars? Slim to none, really. The truly astounding thing here is that these pampered celebs would compare a reality show to being in an infamous prison. Then again, it was not long ago Spencer was telling Complex.com that he is going to revolutionize hip-hop.  </p>
<p>Given the track record, it seems safe to assume that it&#8217;s all just part of Speidi&#8217;s web of insanity. Try not to get caught.</p>

		<description><![CDATA["Miss Macpherson emphatically denies that there is any romantic association between her and Mr Brian Burgess."]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p><em>The following, before the ###, is a statement released by Elle Macpherson through a publicist Monday.</em></p>
<p><em></em>LONDON, /PRNewswire/ &#8211;‚ ‚  Miss Macpherson emphatically denies that there is any romantic association between her and Mr Brian Burgess.</p>
<p>Miss Macpherson is disappointed her friendship with Mr Burgess has been so casually misrepresented for commercial sensationalism. Furthermore Miss Macpherson has a reasonable expectation of privacy in relation to her personal life; in the absence of a romantic element, the publication of the photograph and the innuendo created by it is a gross interference of Miss Macpherson&#8217;s rights.</p>
<p>Miss Macpherson is aware of Mr Burgess&#8217;s past conduct and also that Mr Burgess has and continues to take significant steps towards restoring his life.</p>
<p>Any continued misrepresentation or invasion of privacy is likely to be the subject of legal proceedings.&#8221;</p>
<p>Source: Alexander Carter-Silk, Speechly Bircham</p>
<p>###</p>
<p>Burgess, 56, is a British businessman and a reported convicted drug smuggler. European tabloids have been pumping up a possible relationship since a photo emerged of the pair together.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p><em>This is a Blast Magazine enterprise piece</em>.</p>
<p>The youth of the 1960s made an indelible impression on future generations. They clung to ideals hoping to change the world. They reacted to the turbulent times they&#8217;d found themselves in by living in the moment. They couldn&#8217;t be contained or restrained or controlled.</p>
<p>Edie Sedgwick epitomizes all that was good and bad about growing up in the sixties.  She is an icon for Baby Boomers and has become an idol for today&#8217;s &#8220;Echo Boomers.&#8221;</p>
<p>She didn&#8217;t consider herself a rebel. She considered herself a &#8220;life artist&#8221; and wanted to use her medium to tell a story to parents a generation above her.As Sedgwick once told The New York Times  &#8220;It is not that I&#8217;m rebelling. It&#8217;s that I&#8217;m just trying to find another way.&#8221;</p>
<p>&quot;The thing she wanted to say the most was that there was a lot of hypocrisy with the way things had been in the 50s,&#8221; said Melissa Painter, co-author of a new book, &#8220;Edie: Girl on Fire,&#8221; that includes an audio CD of the &#8220;Ciao! Manhattan&#8221; tapes, her last recorded interviews. &#8220;She wanted to be honestâ€¦ in an outrageous sort of way.&quot;</p>
<p>Sedgwick was much more than aspirational stereotypes allow. She wasn&#8217;t simply a socialite; she was glitterati personified. She wasn&#8217;t a model; she was a fashion trendsetter and style catalyst. She was not an actress; she was a film star and a muse for filmmakers.</p>
<p>She was brilliant and beautiful beyond words; passionate, playful, spontaneous and reckless.</p>
<p>Today, Sedgwick entices men with her sexuality and her uninhibited soul. She attracts women who want to be like her. Yet she&#8217;s been dead for 35 years.</p>
<p><strong>Edie&#8217;s History</strong></p>
<p>Sedgwick was born on April 20, 1943, to Alice Delano de Forest Sedgwick and Frances Minturn Sedgwick. Both came from wealthy, well-connected families. Born Edith, she was their sixth child, and grew up in a ranch in California. Her artist father was an adulterous alcoholic; her eccentric mother turned the other cheek at his indiscretions.They sent Edie to boarding school at 13; at 18 she was sent to Silver Hill, a New Canaan, Conn. mental hospital, to treat depression and an eating disorder. When that facility didn&#8217;t prove effective, her father admitted her to notoriously strict Bloomingdale, a psychiatric hospital in nearby White Plains, N.Y. While out on a pass from Bloomingdale, she made love with a handsome Harvard man and got pregnant. Edie shared on the Ciao! Manhattan tapes, &#8220;I was pregnant and I had psychiatric permission, you know, I could get an abortion without any hassle at all.  And then after that, experiences I had making love, I found I had all sorts of hangups.&#8221;</p>
<p>Eventually, she left Bloomingdale and headed to straight to Cambridge, Mass., fraternizing with Harvard students and graduates and managing to find â€˜the Bohemian epicenter&#8217; in that community.</p>
<p>In 1964, Sedgwick inherited a trust fund from her maternal grandmother and moved to New York. When she arrived in Manhattan, she enjoyed an exorbitant lifestyle, one that included heavy use of amphetamines and alcohol. She shopped, danced, and socialized in an outlandish and extravagant way. In no time, she earned herself a reputation as the party girl to meet and in so doing, attracted legendary singer/songwriter Bob Dylan and influential pop-artist Andy Warhol. She knew she had become both famous and infamous; she herself said on the &#8220;Ciao! Manhattan&#8221; tapes, &#8220;Wherever I&#8217;ve been, I&#8217;ve been quite notorious.&#8221;</p>
<p>Warhol and Edie fell in love platonically but intensely, and their mutually beneficial relationship became the talk of the town. By her side, Warhol found himself on the guest list of upper-crust soirees. With his direction, Sedgwick found herself appearing on film for the first time.</p>
<p>&quot;Very soon,&quot; Warhol said of his favorite muse in the book, &#8220;POPism: The Warhol Sixties,&#8221; a collaborative effort between Warhol and his diarist Pat Hackett. &quot;Edie would be innovating her own look that Vogue, Life, and Time and all the other magazines would photograph &#8212; long, long earrings with dime store t-shirts over dancer&#8217;s tights with a white mink coat thrown over it all.&quot;</p>
