Leona Lewis Book Signing Gone Wild
Singer Leona Lewis was signing copies of her autobiography, Dreams, in London on Wednesday when a so called fan actually punched her. The guy reportedly ran up to her about 90 minutes into her book signing and hit her in the head. Though she didn’t have to go to the hospital for her injuries, the incident shook her up so badly that she backed out of a scheduled appearance on The One Show, a show on the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) that was scheduled for the same night this happened.
The bookstore where this incident took place said that they would support any police investigation into the incident and thanked her for remaining professional throughout the ordeal.
Leona Lewis is releasing her second album, Echo, on November 17th. A single from the album, called “Happy,” was recently released. No doubt she had been doing this book signing to promote the release of her album. While it sucks that this happened to her, they say there’s no such thing as bad publicity. The guy that punched her may have inadvertently given both her book sales and record sales a boost. Funny how karma works, isn’t it?

My God, that is terrible! I’m glad Leona Lewis is okay. What a freak.
This incident reminded me of how vulnerable celebrities are to stalkers.

Life & Beauty Weekly: Expert Q+A
A: "This sort of kindness is rare, so it’s natural you’d want to reciprocate. But if you have offered to repay (or treat) her and she resists, there’s no need to insist on giving her money.
Also try not to feel bad that she always pays. Coffee isn’t a big expense, and it sounds like she enjoys treating you. She may do it because she appreciates your friendship or support at work. Or perhaps she likes having an excuse to get out of the office and doesn’t mind shelling out a few extra dollars for you. Regardless, just thank her each time she pays. Then, every once in a while, surprise her with a tin of cookies or muffins. Or once a month or so, tell her you are taking her out for lunch. "

Men’s Life Today: Expert Q+A
A: "There’s no easy answer as to why you get them. Ingrown hairs are more noticeable in men with really thick hair -- as ingrown hairs are more prevalent in people with thick hair -- or dark hair with light skin. However, there are a couple of key things you can do to heal them and prevent future outbreaks.
First of all, it helps to understand the evolution of an ingrown hair: After hair removal, as the hair starts growing back, the sharp tip of the hair curls back in on itself and digs into the skin, leading to inflammation and irritation. If you do get one, remember this mantra: Put down the tweezers. Plucking ingrown hairs invariably fails and causes additional irritation. Instead, try applying an over-the-counter cortisone cream to help relieve inflammation, then head to a laser dermatologist for laser hair removal (no, not removal of all your hair -- just the problem ones). Realistically, laser’s the only long-term solution for ingrown hairs.
Electrolysis isn’t practical because of the number and thickness of hairs involved. And as for waxing, well, remember the 40-year-old Virgin? Enough said."
