Cannes brings out the best in celebrities. It's all about going man to man in old school red carpet elegance -- only the strong survive. The festival has been going on for about a week now, so we decided it's time to bring you our top picks for best dressed from the first few days of the festival.

The world is still freaking out after witnessing Miley Cyrus' nude shoulder blades -- which, in itself, is kind of understandable, as even non-prudish folk might balk at teenagers posing suggestively for fashion mags. But now there's news that people are raising hell over the naked backs of grown-up women -- calling them "explicit" and demanding that they be removed from public view.

This latest controversy surrounds some ads for K-Rock, a New York-based radio station, which show women with tattoos of rock bands across their bare shoulders. Offended citizens have complained to the radio station, and now the "scandal" is making headlines in the northeast. Subsequently fashion bloggers are up in arms, calling America's recent obsession with "back pornography" ridiculous and pleading with the country to chill out.

But should we? Personally, we don't see what all the fuss is about. However, you can check out the photos and judge for yourself.

There's no doubt that we love the way our legs look in extremely high heels -- put us in a 4" or 5" heel, and we'll show you legs that seem to go on forever, like our pal Gwyneth Paltrow over to the right. However, the New York Times recently had an article about the high, high heel and how women walk in them.

And, of course, the answer is the same as how one would move a 600 pound gorilla -- very carefully.

Guests who attended Ashton Kutcher's birthday party on Feb. 7th are being told to get themselves checked for Hepatitis. Held in the 'Socialista,' a New York club decked out to look like 40's Havana, it looks like party-goers might have left with more than just a Cuban cigar and a hangover.

The NY Board of Health has confirmed that a waitress at the event later tested positive for Hepatitis A. Officials aren't sure who gave it to her, but if I had to guess, I'd say that it was Madonna. Even Kutcher himself is being urged to go get himself checked out -- a screening for the all the partiers is set for today.

Guests included A-listers like Bruce Willis, Gwyneth Paltrow, Madonna, Kate Hudson and, of course Demi Moore -- if this thing turns out to be an celebrity epidemic, it could mean disaster for the Oscars.

Of course, it could be a practical joke. Doesn't this kinda seem like an episode of Punk'd?

Want to do away with some saggy spots and laugh lines on your face, but you don't really like the idea of surgeons rearranging your features or getting injected with toxic chemicals? There's a hot new trend out there that claims to revitalize your droopy face -- without going under the knife. It's called "Face Yoga" and it's all the rage at the NY Health and Racquet Club. Even Hollywood starlets like Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Aniston are reportedly getting in on the action.

The pioneer of Face Yoga here in the US is most definitely Annelise Hagen. She wrote the book on Face Yoga -- I mean that literally, it's called The Yoga Face. Annelise claims that you can get rid of wrinkles and achieve a more youthful complexion by simply making idiotic faces in her yoga classes. For example, she has students do exercises such as holding their eyes wide open to combat crow's feet.

Does it work? Who knows, but it's got to be better than botox. Her book is on sale at Amazon, if you're into that whole reading thing. Rumor has it that reading gives you crow's feet though -- tough call.

Um, maybe there is something to that story of Gwyneth Paltrow using snake venom on her face. What else can explain September's W magazine cover? The perpetually pale and WASPy looking faux-English lass now looks like she's been spending secret time in Donatella Versace's private beauty palace. The spray tan, the giant brush brows and the blindingly white hair render her virtually unrecognizable. I understand the urge to try something new with your look sometimes, but appearing on the cover of a fashion magazine looking like La Cicciolina seems like an odd career move. I haven't seen all the contestants yet, but this is in the running for the worst of the September covers.

Obviously the best part about being a celebrity is having money to burn. You can spend hundreds of dollars on the most asinine products -- like the caviar shampoo Catherine Zeta Jones uses on her hair, or the snake venom cream Gwyneth Paltrow rubs all over her face.

Now either Gwyneth is a particularly gullible person, or the salesman at the Sonya Dakkar spa in Beverly Hills is a very slick talker -- because I can't think of a product less-likely to be good for your face than one that contains venom from a poisonous snake. It's like whoever makes Ultra Lux 9 skincare products is simply trying to find the most seemingly rare and mysterious-sounding ingredients -- no matter how completely random and unhealthy they sound.

It's all fun and games until your faces breaks out in scales.

Academy-award winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow just unveiled a new limited edition scent for Estee Lauder called Pleasures by Gwyneth Paltrow. While the Pleasures perfume is about ten years old, the new limited edition version will feature a slightly lighter concentration of the familiar floral scent.

The Pleasures by Gwyneth Paltrow line, which is packaged in "Cinderalla Pink and gold" includes an eau du perfume spray, a satin body silk, and bath salts. (According to reports, Gwyneth is a big bath taker -- who knew?) But If you're interested in trying out Gwyneth's new perfume, you better get on it, pronto. The limited edition scent will only be around for three months.
