Fireworks are mesmerising.

Stars, as old as the universe, but always on trend
The Dolce&Gabbana FW11 collection was based on the contrast between masculine and feminine. Role-playing, fabric swapping and silhouette challenging designs dominated the catwalk.

The Super Bowl is upon us and everyone is talking about the halftime performance that Madonna will be putting on with Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. ‘Give Me All Your Luvin’ ‘ got it’s video release today to tempt us further and judging the way it plays out, the Super Bowl certainly inspired her…
It's the night of the year: no, not New Year's Eve, but the one in which real men gather to watch Super Bowl. For all the football addicted who didn't make it to the stadium and are enjoying it from the couch, here are 3 recipes by Gnam Box to give the US hamburger an Italian twist.
Apparently, the Super Bowl isn't only a chance for a pop singer to get on a stage with the whole US of A watching. No, it seems that there's also a certain amount of interest in a game of football (their football, you know, American football) that happens before and after the pop performance. Who knew?
The cheeky chap hailing from Devon, England, gave Swide something to smile about when he was caught backstage at the Men’s Dolce&Gabbana SS12 fashion show. From modelling to his skills in the kitchen, Sam Way charmed his way through our questions and here is what happened.

Leslye Headland’s ‘Bachelorette’ premiered at the Eccles Theatre during the Sundance Film Festival and it is trying to battle off comparisons to the amazing ‘Bridesmaids’. Relying on its darker tones to differentiate itself, Kirsten plays a mean, mean girl in the film, for whom love comes last, but in reality she is secretly waiting to be surprised by Mr. Right.
Adrien Brody couldn’t be more New York if he tried. He epitomises the urbane sophisticated gentleman. Since establishing himself on the Hollywood A-List, Brody lives the life of a movie star. With constant speculation about who is or isn’t dating, Brody keeps everyone guessing. That’s part of his mystique, he’s a private guy, a committed actor and has a real artistic nature.
