The cause of Michael Jackson‘s death is not yet clear, but it was suspected to be cardiac arrest as he collapsed from his rented home in Los Angeles, California. The news is quite shocking and disturbing, so as the startling reaction of million of his fans worldwide.

I will forever cherish his hits such as Thriller, Billie Jean, Beat it, Rock with you, PYT, Black or White, and many more. Truly, he made quite a mark in music history by his revolutionary style and rhythm that changed music forever.

It sucks that MJ has to pass away long before his planned London concert in commemoration with Thriller’s 25th Anniversary (his album Thriller has been dubbed as the best-selling album of all time). His consummate performances, unparalleled legacy and moonwalks will forever live in our hearts and minds. Adieu, Michael!

She’s truly a cherry and every man’s Bloody Mary fantasy. Her seductress’ moves are truly impeccable like her skin, and every woman wants to steal her bodacious look. Dita is currently MAC Viva Glam’s Pinup Girl. Wanna get her look?

Becoming Dita

Guzzling loads of water and glutathione as well as slathering gunks of luxurious skin-brightening creams may be the key in getting her even-toned snow white complexion. You can nix this part if you want to retain your glowing golden complexion (too fair white is kinda off to me ). Well, why not fake it? Try using Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer as base to smoothen up those flaws like rough patches and pockmarks, and then MAC Studio Mist foundation or SK-II Air Touch Foundation for a flawless, airbrushed look. You can also try Makeup Forever’s Face and Body Liquid Makeup as foundation to even out your skin tone from face to body.

For the eyes, start with a shimmery nude base such as MAC Paintpot in Bare Study, or nix the shimmers with MAC Paintpot in Painterly. Then, color both rims with a smoky gray-to-black eye shadow on the inner crease, blending a bit of color outward from the outer V up (see MAC’s Smoke Signals Smoky Eyes Quad or Smashbox Decadence Eye Shadow Trios). Do it as subtle as possible since overdoing it may make you look like Marilyn Manson (her ex beau) instead! Prep your lashes with some falsies by getting a fab pair from Shu Uemura or check out MAC‘s newest range of false eyelashes. Apply loads of mascara to emphasize your peepers more. Fasio’s Power Stay Mascara has a budge-free formula so you’ll say goodbye to clumping and buildups, while Maybelline’s XXL Waterproof Microfibre Mascara works wonders on lengthening and volumizing your lashes up to 60%.

Skip using any cheek color, or use a hint of sheer, illuminating highlighter instead such as The Body Shop’s Glow Enhancer to bring your matte skin to a glow.

Note: Image isn’t the actual lip color

Finish it off with luscious red lipstick like MAC lipstick in Viva Glam 1 to finish a captivating dramatic look like Dita’s. It’s up to you to go all-the-way like donning your favorite lingerie or prepping it up ala burlesque queen.

If you want it really au naturel, you may try using Agent Provocateur’s Titillation, a set of lip plumper and nipple cream made specially to boost your seduction prowess.

Besides my love for Riyo’s smoky eye makeup (a dark purple and charcoal combination with heavy eye liner on the outer v area and false lashies to complete the look), I also love her gown during that night. It’s a Gucci ready-to-wear Summer 2007 kimono inspired gown which may look like typical kimono wrap top…Hence, instead of wrapping around the gown, it has a plunging v-neckline to fake the kimono look. I’m also gushing over its cutesy intricate details on the gown’s drapings. That’s what I call, “Asian Fab.”

Looks like the famous talk show host pulled out the same look!

Well, looks like Oprah made a bit justice to donning the gown during the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. Albeit she doesn’t possess a lanky figure (which Riyo has), the gown gave Oprah a sexy, sensuous vixen look. The plunging neckline shown her a full decolletage and the fitted waistline actually gave Oprah voluptuous curves.

Overall, too bad, it didn’t fit her much. Why? The gown overall shouts the color “black”. And golden-skinned people should avoid wearing something dark or gloomy lest it won’t compliment their skintone. She should’ve chosen a light colored gown. Also, her kinks did also some damage to her getup. I think it’ll be better if she had it straight or pulled it up. I don’t suggesting pulling her hair up using chopstick. She might look like a trying hard Japanese girl in the guise of a Black woman.

While the Philippines’ bet, Anna Theresa Licaros, bagged the Miss Photogenic Award. (heck!)
