New hoodies worry police

LONDON, Dec. 9 (UPI) — Jackets covering the head and face, leaving just two slits through which to see, is the latest fashion craze in Britain.Called burqas for boys, the jackets were borrowed from Italian fashion, where the concealing jackets were first inspired by the protective gear worn by drivers in the Mille Miglia, an Italian endurance race started in the 1920s.Authorities, however, are concerned by the craze, The Times of London reported Sunday.”The trouble in society is not just crime but the fear of crime, and this new jacket is enough to give anyone a shiver down their spine,” said Brian Paddick, a former senior officer at the Metropolitan police and now a London mayoral candidate.Steve Dodd, 18, of South Shields said he bought his jacket to protect his face from the freezing winds. He said he was taken aback by the reaction he gets in public.”After I bought the jacket I went into the Caffe Nero opposite, fully zipped up, and people just laughed,” he said.Copyright 2007 by United Press International

Britney Spears’ Birthday - America’s Pop Tart Turns 26!

britney002.jpg It’s Britney’s birthday this Sunday, y’all, and America’s favorite pop tart has yet to reveal her plans for the big day. But what do you get for the girl who has everything?

In Britney’s case, a little privacy might be just what she’s looking for.

Brit-Brit has been working hard on her new music video for Piece of Me and might just be looking for a little peace and quiet this b-day.

Celebrating hasn’t been on the top of Britney’s list of things to do these past few months. When asked how she celebrated the release of her new album, Blackout, Spears told Ryan Seacrest that she watched movies and ate fried chicken.

But it’s not like Brit to lay low on her birthday. Every year she goes out and parties, ultimately making headlines with her chaotic behavior. But with the tragic year she’s had, calling it an early night may be in her best interest.

After all, things are looking up for Brit. She found out she gets to spend Christmas day with her sons, her first single topped the charts and a new video is in the works. Disregard the recent pregnancy rumors, reports that she’s a sex freak and news that she stole from a local shop and she’s not having a half bad week.

The poor girl just can’t catch a break.

If you were Britney, how would you spend your birthday?

Katie Holmes New Hair – Love It or Hate It?

katieholmes1.jpgEveryone’s talking about Katie Holmes’ new hair style and we’re wondering whether fans adore the new look or miss the old Katie.

Holmes donned the fresh new look on the red carpet of the 59th annual Bambi Awards, along with a long black dress and super dark makeup.

And while most of the focus has been on Katie’s chic new bob (now referred to as the bobkat), it was her witch-like makeup that made us cringe.

In fact, there was very little change in her haircut itself, except that it was slightly shorter and she chopped her bangs.

It was her high heels (as you can see, she soared over hubby, Tom Cruise) and unladylike posture that made her look more like a man than a Hollywood hottie.

So we want to know what you think of Katie’s new look?

Do you prefer the posh-like Holmes or do you miss the Joey Potter-like style from the early 2000’s?
