Miranda Kerr in Christian Dior Sunglasses

Photo: Coolspotters.com

Miranda Kerr gave birth this past February, but you’d never have guessed it after seeing her flat and stretch mark-less stomach during Tuesday night’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Billed as “the sexiest night on television,” the annual event featured Miranda and the rest of the famed Victoria’s Secret Angels wearing some of the hottest lingerie you’ve ever seen; musical guests Maroon 5, Kanye West, Jay-Z and Nicki Minaj; an audience full of drooling celebs; and a whole lotta glam and glitter. Oh, and let’s not forget the pink carpet! Gorgeous 28-year-old Miranda, who was born in Australia and raised in New South Wales, missed last year’s show because she was pregnant with Flynn, her 10-month-old son with hunky husband Orlando Bloom.

This year, though, she was given the honor of wearing the bejeweled $2.5 million Fantasy Treasure bra during the show and was given a standing ovation when she strutted her stuff on the catwalk dressed as an ice peacock during the finale. Orlando was in the front row—probably staring open-mouthed like the rest of us. Want to look like Miranda without spending millions? She’s seen here sporting a pair of fun and funky cat eye Christian Dior sunglasses, which are available in five frame/lens color combinations.

Eva Mendes in D&G Sunglasses

The gorgeous Eva Mendes sure has a man who knows how to make a girl feel special. Hunky actor Ryan Gosling, 31, surprised his love of two months on the set of the film Holly Motors in Paris, France this past Friday, insiders confirmed to Us Weekly. He apparently flew out to be with Eva as soon as she wrapped the film. “The film was a fairly small production and Eva was good about being focused and without many distractions on set.” A second insider added that Eva, 37 (and verging on “cougar” territory here), “was totally shocked” when Ryan showed up unannounced. “They were talking all the time so she had no hints that he was coming,” the second insider told Us. The source added that Eva was really homesick and missed him, even though the shoot was relatively short.

The following day, the celeb couple, who reportedly began dating in September, was caught by photogs sneaking in a few kisses while strolling arm-in-arm  in Paris. Ah, the joy of being a beautiful couple in love sauntering the romantic streets of Paris. Question is are Ryan– whose exes include the likes of  Rachel McAdams, Sandra Bullock and Kirsten Dunst–and Eva a match made in heaven. As always in Tinseltown, time will tell. In the meantime, Eva is certainly ravishing in these stand-out, edgy D&G shades. –rpuccia

Nick Jonas in Ray Ban Sunglasses

Seems like heartthrob Nick Jonas is in no hurry to reunite with his brothers any time soon. With his own hit band (the Administration), a big Broadway role in the works (How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying), and a small screen part in a new network drama next year (Steven Spielberg-produced Smash opposite Anjelica Huston and Debra Messing), Nick’s solo career is certainly on the fast track.

Still, the humble hunk never misses a chance to let folks know he “feels blessed” to have been given all of these fantastic opportunities and to give back, he recently got the chance to give an unknown aspiring singer her own shot at a music career. He helped lead the Quaker Chewy Superstar Search and awarded a 14-year-old girl from Florida with a management contract and the chance to record a song he wrote and produced. “It felt like an amazing opportunity and it was targeted at ages 8 to 14. So it was a specific age group that we were going after and basically wanted to find a really talented young person who was as passionate about music as I was at that age. It was so great to see young people on all these videos get involved and share their voice with me and the Quaker team.” This hottie has it all, and he gets serious style points in a sexy white hoodie, driving cap and two-tone  Ray Ban wayfarers.  –rpuccia

Kat Von D in Dolce & Gabbana Sunglasses

Kat Von D was famously the rebound girl for Jesse James after his rather tasteless, infidelity-ravaged divorce from Sandra Bullock last year. Our fave tattoo artist and the motorcycle mogul called it quits for good in September following a nixed engagement and a brief reconciliation. In a recent Facebook post, Kat aired out her dirty laundry by venting that Jesse cheated on her as well. (What a shocker, right?) “Today I encountered the 19th girl to add to the list of people Jesse cheated on me with during this last year,” she wrote in the post, entitled “Thank You, Jesse James.”  “I kept going back and forth in my mind as to what the best way would be for me to release and let go of any residual feelings remaining from that toxic relationship,” she added. “All of this may sound petty or immature to some, but I assure you this is coming from a place of pure honesty and love.”

Kat did admit in her post that she thought Jesse was vilified and unfairly depicted in the media. “There was a time when I was confident and excited at proving the world wrong, because I believed so deeply in people’s ability to change for the better,” she wrote.  She indicated that the post was about making peace with herself, and forgiving herself for making some bad decisions.  She may be challenged at picking men, but she certainly makes the grade in choosing these bad-to-the-bone Dolce & Gabanna gold aviators.  –rpuccia

Charlize Theron in Christian Dior Sunglasses

Charlize Theron recently opened up about not being used to being alone in the December issue of Vogue Mag. “I’ve never been single,” the actress, 36, reveals . “This is the first time in my life. From the time I was 19, I’ve been in relationships, literally gone from one to the other within a month.” The South African beauty split with love of nine years Stuart Townsend in January 2010. She admits that she was desperate to save her relationship with Townsend. “It was sinking, and I had to give it a fight,” she explains. “I really wanted to try and make it work. That was the priority. I wouldn’t do it any different way.”

But on the brighter side, according to Charlize, the breakup helped reinvigorate her acting career. She has several new films in the works–including Young Adult and as the Evil Queen in 2012′s darker adaptation of Snow White and the Huntsman with Twilight phenom Kristen Stewart. “I really, really missed it, she said.   She even comments on Kristen’s talent in the interview saying, “Kristen is just living this to the max and still has a sense of humor about it. There’s this really lovely quality about her…” Charlize adds, “I’m looking forward to killing her and taking her beauty…That’s what happens, right?” Well, Charlize packs a ton of beauty all on her own, especially in these chic Christian Dior shades. –rpuccia

Demi Moore in Dramatic Square Sunglasses

Demi Moore probably needs to change her Twitter handle. Yep, the sexy cougar known as @MrsKutcher to more than four million Twitter followers has filed for divorce from hubby Ashton Kutcher after six years of wedded bliss. The tech-savvy May/December couple—she was 43 when they tied the knot in 2005 and he was 27—seemed to be beating the odds despite their celebrity status, unusual for most Hollywood unions—Demi’s kids with ex-husband Bruce Willis even referred to Ashton as “my other dad,” and Bruce was a good friend to the happy couple. Ash and Demi were even spotted at Bruce’s vacation home earlier this month, supposedly working on their marriage. Infidelity rumors began circulating in September and Ashton denied that he had cheated on the Misses with 22-year-old Sara Leal on his six-year wedding anniversary, but Leal’s already been on the cover of US Weekly spilling her side of the story.

Yesterday Demi issued a public statement reading “It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton,” asking fans to offer the privacy and compassion they would give anyone going through a similar situation. Ashton inserted his two cents by Chiming “I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi. Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail.” Ouch! Even so, Demi manages to look nothing less than stunning in these oversized square sunglasses.

Brad Pitt in Tom Ford Sunglasses

So is he or isn’t he? Just days after Brad Pitt told Australia’s 60 Minutes that he’s quitting the acting game in three years when he turns 50,  he’s doing some serious back-tracking. The 47-year-old actor reiterated that he won’t be done with moviemaking at age 50; he’ll just transition to roles behind the lens. “I wasn’t actually putting an exact deadline on my expiration date [in Australia's 60 Minutes interview], but I see it coming,” Brad told reporters at a press conference promoting Moneyball in South Korea. “I just have other interests and I do quite enjoy the production side,” he said. In fact, the mega hunk says he’s quite content with growing older — especially with Angelina Jolie and their six kids by his side–and went so far as to say that he actually enjoys aging! (Must be easy to say when you’re still a hottie and aging as gracefully as he is). “With age comes wisdom and I have said it before and I say it again, I will take wisdom over youth any day,” he said. “I think certainly, being a father has changed everything for me as far as perspective and interest, taking care of myself and wanting to be around for them.”

Dad to Maddox, 10, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5, and Vivienne and Knox, 3, Brad told 60 Minutes he doesn’t mind chasing after his children as he grows older. “Those late nights are so fun when one of them’s up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something,” he told 60 Minutes of parenting their large brood. “That’s what it’s about.” Here he makes it pretty evident that he’s hot, happenin’, and here to stay in these dapper Tom Ford shades.  –rpuccia

Bradley Cooper in Ray Ban Sunglasses

Not only is Bradley Cooper of Hangover and The A-Team fame insanely gorgeous, he’s joined the ranks of Ryan Reynolds, Johnny Depp and George Clooney by becoming People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2011. Adding to his dazzling baby blue eyes and boyish charm–as if that wasn’t enough! drool, drool–Bradley’s a Georgetown alum that’s fluent in French. Ooh, la la!

His first professional gig was an appearance on Sex in the City in 1999 and things only went uphill from there.  He can be spotted in episodes of Law and Order and Nip/Tuck, had a lead role on Alias, and taken on roles in big-screen rom-coms like He’s Just Not That into You and Valentine’s Day. “I think it’s really cool that a guy who doesn’t look like a model can have this,” the 36-year-old actor told People in regards to his new title. Oh, we beg to differ—especially after seeing him sign autographs in these Ray Ban sunglasses! And ladies? This motorcycle-riding hottie is single!

Jennifer Lopez in Tom Ford Sunglasses

After separating from Marc Anthony following seven years of marriage, Jennifer seemed to have moved on with just-crowned People Mag Sexiest Man Alive, Bradley Cooper. But four months after the split, JLo has been spotted with yet another new (younger) man in her life: Casper Smart, a dancer from Anaheim, Calif. (yep, another dancer.) Over the weekend, a source confirmed to Us Weekly that Jen has been romantically involved with the backup dancer for a few weeks and  finally broke this past weekend.  TMZ published the first photo of the unexpected twosome together, posing semi-affectionately backstage following Lopez’s summer performance in the Republic of Crimea in Ukraine. (Casper along with a crew of dancers help Lopez entertain the guests of a lavish wedding within days of her announced split from hubby Marc Anthony.) He also shared the stage with the superstar during her recent American Idol performance in L.A.

The indisputably hot and hunky Casper has apparently performed with Beyonce (at the 2010 Grammy Awards) and even the late Michael Jackson (on his “This Is It” tour). Hot indeed. Although an insider reported that the relationship is “nothing serious” we know it’s hard for JLo to go “half-way” on anything–like she shows us here in a fierce fur-trimmed leather jacket and oversized Tom Ford shades. –rpuccia

Brody Jenner in Gucci Sunglasses

Even though the evening got off to a rather positive start with hunky Brody Jenner tweeting: “Having the best night with the love of my life @AvrilLavigne so happy right now!!”–things went horribly wrong later on. Brody and girlfriend Avril Lavigne ended up getting into a bloody brawler last weekend at Hollywood’s Roosevelt Hotel both sustaining some serious cuts and bruises! The Hills star (and stepbrother to Kim Kardashian) even ended up getting stitches at a local hospital following the intense feud for a large gash on his forehead, said to be from a smashed bottle after he attempted to break up a fight between Avril and another woman. (Can you say cat fight?) “I don’t fight. I don’t believe in it,” Avril tweeted after the incident. “To clear things up I got attacked by 5 people last night out of nowhere. Not cool…” Not cool, indeed.

No pix surfaced of Avril after the brawl but she tweeted her injuries: “As in black eye, bloody nose, hair ripped out, scratches, bruises and cuts. So not ok to be abusive to others. Violence is NEVER the answer.” She’s got that right–and hopefully there’s no permanent damage to Brody’s gorgeous face. Here, he’s traveling in style wearing a sexy Burberry sweater and chunky wrap-around Gucci shades. –rpuccia
