The highest paid celebrities list for the year 2010 was recently released by Forbes. Though male celebrities mostly dominated the list but there were quite a few female celebrities too. The top 5 female celebrities as per the Forbes list are:1. Oprah Winfrey: American television host, actress, producer, and philanthropist Oprah Winfrey is the highest paid female celebrity yet again. She was the highest paid celebrity including both male and female with a massive pay of $290M as per Forbes. However, the 57 year old Oprah lost her top spot in the "Powerful Celebrities List" to pop sensation Lady Gaga. Oprah's net worth as of March 2011 is assumed to be 2.7 billion and she is ranked 420 on the world's richest list and 135th richest in the United States. Oprah Winfrey is best known for "The Oprah Winfrey Show" which has become the highest-rated program of its kind in history and was nationally syndicated from 1986 to 2011. Her rise from abject poverty to the richest African American has touched the hearts of millions of Americans and people around the world. She was not only a celebrity but a way of life according to many and it was not a surprised that Barack Obama, by one estimate, is said to have received over a million votes in the close 2008 Democratic primary race due to Oprah's support. However, the series finale of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" aired on May 25, 2011 and Americans are still struggling to come to terms with the end of an era.2. Lady Gaga: Lady Gaga is second highest paid female celebrity with a pay of $90 M in 2010. Though she ranks behind Oprah in Money rank and TV/Radio rank but she tops the celebrity list in new age media ranks such as web rank and social rank. Lady Gaga also ranked no.2 in press rank and she has replaced talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey as the most powerful celebrity in this year's Forbes list. The 25 year old was also involved in a lot of controversies in the last year too which seems to have worked in her favor and increased her popularity even further.3. Bethenny Frankel: The third female celebrity in the highest paid list is the American natural foods chef, television personality and author Bethenny Frankel. She makes her entry into the list this year with a bang as she is ranked as the 3rd richest female celebrity as per Forbes with a pay of $55 M in the last year. She might not as big as Oprah or Lady Gaga or even Gisele in terms of overall popularity but nonetheless she has manages her money rank is comparable to many top celebrities. She is on the rise both in terms of popularity as well as earning and in April 2011, Frankel sold her Skinnygirl cocktail line to Fortune Brands' Beam Global for an estimated $120 million. On June 10, 2010, her series "Bethenny Ever After..." became the highest rated series premiere in the Bravo network's history.4. Gisele Bündchen: Gisele Bündchen is the fourth highest paid female celebrity and it is not at all surprising as she has been the highest-paid model in the world since 2004. According to Forbes, the 30 year old Brazilian supermodel earned $45 million in the last year though modeling and product endorsements.Her earnings climbed $20 million over the previous year and according to an April 2011 report Proctor & Gamble's Pantene shampoo sales exploded 40% in Latin America after Bündchen started endorsing it.5. Ellen DeGeneres: American stand-up comedienne, television host and actress Ellen DeGeneres is the fourth highest paid female celebrity as per Forbes. The 53 year old talk show host is best known for "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and has also earned $45 million in the last year as per Forbes. She has also hosted both the Academy Awards and the Primetime Emmys and was a judge on American Idol for one year too.It might be a big surprising that none of the top Hollywood actresses make it to the top 5 highest paid female celebrity list. It is quite notable that most of female celebrities in the above list have built a sort of brand around themselves resulting in more earnings and popularity compared to Hollywood actresses who are lagging behind in that field.

Top Reasons Why Your Company Needs Brand Ambassadors
Brand ambassadors (also referred to as evangelists) can add major value to your business and targeting them is a social media strategy worth spending time on. People are more likely to listen to their friends and family when making purchasing decisions than they are to marketing and advertising messages. It is in your company's best interest to identify and select ambassadors for your brand because wherever they go, you go.Below are a few reasons why your time and resources should be spent targeting these individuals on social networks.
Â
Brand Ambassadors Are Cost EffectiveDon't waste your time and money trying to get an A-list celebrity or industry guru to tweet for you. You'll have to jump over hurdles to speak with them and they have a bunch of other things on their plate. In a recent interview by ClickZ, principal research scientist at Yahoo Research Dunch Watts said (in reference to paying celebrities to tweet for your brand), "[Celebrities] don't pay attention to others. The media is focused on media..."Your existing customers are your best (and most affordable) ambassadors. Satisfied customers will recommend your brand, product, or service to their friends if you treat them right. That means living up to their expectations and acknowledging their value. A simple way to do that is to publish tweets saying "Thank you" to individual followers. Giveaways will certainly motivate them to love your brand more than they already do, but a tweet is free and can go farther than you think. They will gladly spend their precious time talking about you if you regularly acknowledge them.Brand Ambassadors Are Your Best CriticsWe recently talked about criticism on social networks and how to handle trolls (malicious intents). Brand ambassadors are just the opposite of them. Ambassadors might be critical of your work, but they will offer solutions and suggestions to make things right. If there are 5 to 10 people who regularly post constructive feedback on your Facebook wall, you should target those followers. Not only will they market your brand to their friends, but they can also help your company moving forward. Their comments and concerns can be used as a tool to help your company understand its target audience better.Brand Ambassadors Offer Instant Marketing OpportunitiesThe difference between a brand influencer and an ambassador is that an influencer is someone you must convince to talk about your brand, and the courting process can take a considerable amount of time. They often have a large number of followers, but unlike an ambassador, influencers do not have a history of showing interest in your product or service.Reaching out to influencers is a good strategy because it presents a high risk, high reward situation. But if you want more peace of mind, a handful of brand ambassadors will give that to you. You can reach out to influencers and hope they talk about your brand. You can hope an influencer gives you the exposure you want. You can hope an influencer dedicates his or her time to promoting your service. You can hope all day and all night when you work with an influencer.But that's not the case with brand ambassadors. Brand ambassadors take out the stress that hope brings. Once you identify your ambassadors, you can be confident in the work they'll do because they have a history of talking about your brand.Final ThoughtsHave you identified your brand ambassadors? What have they done for your business and what are you doing to acknowledge their value?

Using Celebrities to Sell Designer Fragrances
Think celebrity fragrances have run their course? Think again. The brands behind many designer fragrances are churning out celebrity-name scents for men and women. The latest was Beyonce's Heat, and more fragrances from current A-list celebrities are coming up in 2010. Although celebrity scents hit a stride back in 2004 and never looked back, a study done in 2009 indicated that these designer fragrances may be detrimental to the perfume market overall. Those in the study, for example, who liked the scent wouldn't buy the perfume if they didn't like the celebrity associated. But, with many B- and C-list celebrity scents on the market, it appears that fragrance brands are fine-tuning their approach to marketing.Could going for an A-list only approach change slumping sales for designer fragrances? One recent example indicates that this may be a possibility. Beyonce's fragrance, Heat, released earlier this year has sold $3 million in stores in its first month and, on the day Beyonce appeared in a New York store to promote the perfume, 72,000 bottles in an hour. On average, however, a typical celebrity fragrance makes about $2.5 million per year, although this figure often diminishes the second year or when the celebrity loses his or her star power.As Beyonce, as a singer on the A-list for several years, had a successful fragrance, other same tier actors and singers have scents lined up through brands of designer fragrances, like the Falic Group. Upcoming in later in 2010 are perfumes by Jennifer Aniston, Eva Longoria, and Rihanna. In many cases, a scent ends up being a one-time deal for an actor or singer, although some have turned into successful lines. But, as fragrance scents slump overall and the One Mighty Drop campaign attempts to revive the industry, any approach to get the public interested in perfume and cologne again is worth a try.The marketing approach of using A-list celebrities to represent designer fragrances appears to work in the short term. Although not everyone's star power lasts forever, those signed on to have a perfume or cologne appear have been in the limelight for a few years and this should translate into fragrance sales.

Why Celebrities from Madonna to Julia Roberts are Wearing Mineral Makeup
It seems that every Hollywood diva, from Madonna to Julia Roberts, has hopped aboard the mineral makeup bandwagon. The popularity of these all natural cosmetics has prompted real-life beauty gurus to take notice as well. Why are celebrities and professional makeup artists so enthusiastic about foundation and blush created from finely ground mineral content? Consider these reasons to try the latest mineral makeup, and take advantage of our tips to help you shop for the best formulas for your skin.
What is Mineral Makeup? Mineral makeup consists of a combination of finely ground minerals, taken directly from the earth. Some of the most popular ingredients in these formulas include titanium dioxide and zinc, which explain the reason these products are also touted for their sun protection. However, what is not listed on the ingredient list is just as important as what is. Artificial dyes, fragrances and other potentially irritating ingredients are conspicuously absent from mineral makeup's product labels. These all natural formulas have led many skin care professionals to turn to mineral makeup for dealing with even the most problematic client skin concerns. Mineral Makeup Benefits There are many benefits that mineral makeup products offer. Advantages include: · Most mineral makeup formulas are non-comedogenic, so they do not clog pores. · The majority are free from ingredients that could irritate sensitive skin. · Mineral makeup provides excellent coverage while still looking natural. · Many formulas provide some sun protection. · The light-reflective ingredients can effectively turn back the clock on the skin. These numerous benefits explain why many dermatologists are now recommending mineral makeup to their clients, particularly those who have sensitive skin or chronic conditions like acne or rosacea. Mineral makeup offers the coverage they need without causing additional irritation or blemishes. However, choosing the right mineral makeup formula is critical to finding a successful match between your cosmetics and your skin. Choosing Mineral Makeup Unfortunately, the mineral makeup trend has led many cosmetic manufacturers to offer their own lines of mineral cosmetics. However, a lack of regulation in the cosmetic industry means -œbuyer beware- when it comes to choosing the right "mineral" formulas. Any cosmetic can be labeled a mineral makeup, as long as there is at least a little mineral content in the mix. It is important to read product labels to ensure the cosmetic you choose is filled with all natural mineral ingredients, without chemical additives like artificial dyes or fragrances added. One ingredient to watch out for in mineral makeup is bismuth oxychloride. This substance is frequently used in mineral formulas to enhance the glow of the skin. However, bismuth oxychloride has also been shown to irritate skin, and it can make some skin conditions worse. If you have sensitive skin or a chronic skin condition, avoid mineral makeup with this ingredient. Mineral makeup is one of the most popular trends in the beauty industry, and the plethora of companies manufacturing their own lines of mineral makeup indicates the trend won't be waning soon. If you want to try mineral makeup for yourself, make sure you choose a well-known brand and read the product label before buying. You may find that your skin has never looked so natural or beautiful.

Why Hypnotherapy is Fast Gaining Ground among A-list celebrities
Now and again you see articles about celebrities going for hypnotherapy. And for many people this may comes as a surprise. Hypnotherapy has been recognized as a totally natural thing, just as any other natural healing such as meditation, reiki or yoga. Due to the significant and permanent advantages of hypnotherapy, it has already gained huge popularity among the celebrities as well.Those celebrities visit their hypnotherapists for a variety of reasons. Either it can be to earn a sporting edge, give up smoking, overcome a phobia or to lose weight etc. Hypnotherapy is now more popular among the celebrities than any time before. Whether they are athletes, movie stars, TV actors, musicians etc, celebrities from all fields have been known to choose hypnosis.It surely gives a boost to the hypnotherapy business when celebrities disclose the positive results they received from it. Take the example of English recording artist Lily Allen, who has dropped her size from 12 to 8 with the help of hypnotherapy. Tiger Woods is one of the best golf players of all times, and he also received hypnotherapy treatments. Actually he credits his strong mental health to the years of hypnosis he got since he was a child. Steve Collins, another sports star has successfully used hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy has become a big part of many athletes because it can give them motivation, or make them immune to distractions, or to step up their mental strength.Mel Gibson underwent hypnosis to help him deal with his problems, while Kevin Costner hired a private therapist to treat his phobia. Smoking is a big problem among celebrities and because of all the stresses and controversies; it turns into really difficult to get over this filthy addiction. But a lot of celebrities have successfully been treated with hypnotherapy to get over it, Ellen DeGeneres, Billy Joel, Matt Damon and Drew Barrymore to name a few.TV actress Tina Malone lost 6 stone weights using only hypnotherapy. It helped her to alter her eating habits and allowing her to lose the weight. Hypnotherapist identifies the root cause of the problem and assists to treat in accordance with that, like Lily Allen who dropped her size mostly by going to gym and not just altering her eating habits.Richard Lee, the goalie of Brentford football team has also benefitted from hypnosis. Charlotte Church, a Welsh singer also quitted smoking when she was pregnant with her children. Even though she started off again but now she is determined to permanently quit it. You will discover so many celebrities who have tried hypnotherapy that it would certainly be much easier to list those celebrities who have not advantaged from it.It shouldn't come to us as a shock that so many celebrities currently use hypnotherapy. It’s surely not a new trend. People such as Mozart, Henry Ford, and Thomas Edison etc. all have been known to use hypnotherapy to get over their problems. Despite the fact that it can be sometimes relatively expensive to hire a good hypnotherapist, it surely does not mean that only celebrities can afford it. It’s acturally affordable most of the times. The benefits of hypnosis are almost limitless and the effort is minimal, this has made hypnosis really popular among celebrities.

Raquel Welch - Biography "trend"
Raquel labored as a design, server, and tv weather-girl, before generating her film very first in 1964, with a little element in the Elvis presley Presley car, 'Roustabout'.
