REAL TALK: Catching Up with “Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills” star Kyle Richards

20130508-161127.jpg

Kyle Richards is one busy woman!

She is a doting wife, mom to four, likable reality television star, successful store owner and proud philanthropist — and yet she balances it all so well, thanks to multitasking, healthy AND smart eating (she loves fresh veggies from the farmers market!) and hitting the gym hard!

“I’m picking up my kids from school while I am talking to you, was at the store this morning…got my nails done first… I am always go go go go,” Richards told me. But as active as she is, keeping her body in shape, she says, “isn’t easy.” She commits to power yoga once a week and circuit training the rest of the week.

As much as Kyle Richards enjoys her busy life, she is greatly looking forward to “doing absolutely nothing” on Mother’s Day  on June 12th: “I like to do as little as possible. I just like to sleep in and have someone else make the breakfast.” For Father’s Day, however, it’s the total opposite this year. While normally she encourages husband Mauricio to play golf, this year they will be spending in Aspen, Colorado hiking and, Kyle insists, shopping: “That’s the only way to get to me to go. We can ride our bikes to shop.”

INTERVIEW: Ciara Talks Boyfriend Future, “Body Party” Music Video, New Album & More!

Grammy Award winning artist Ciara stopped by Music Choice to chat with me about her “Body Party” music video (released today!), new self-titled album Ciara (out July 9th!), and lots more… you won’t want to miss the 26:30 mark where “CiCi” teaches me her famous “Ride” dance moves!

About her boyfriend, Future, and what she looks for in a man:
“I like someone who’s confident and someone who knows what they want and isn’t afraid of expressing that. I like someone who likes to have a good time. [Future] is a man — and you know what that is right away when you see it. There’s nothing like when a man is just simply being a man and shows up that way.”

About her new self-titled album:
“["Ciara"] ended up being the best title for this album in particular. The One Woman Army hasn’t gone away; I want my fans to know that. It’s now just a part of the whole movement and journey that is me. It’s a solid combination of R&B and pop. More than anything, I want you to feel something. I want you to feel authenticity, where I come from as a person.

Getting To Know Model Jocelyn Chew Beyond “The Face” — SPOTLIGHT

Reality TV was “never her thing,” but when 20-year-old Canadian model Jocelyn Chew was approached by producers and saw the coaches names — Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha — you could say she was more than intrigued by “The Face.”

The show, which airs on Oxygen, is hosted by Nigel Barker, who was a previous judge on another modeling competition, America’s Next Top Model for seventeen seasons. The new series follows the three supermodels as they compete with each other to find ‘the face’ of ULTA beauty.

Jocelyn auditioned for the show, and now? She’s in the Top 11 (of 24 chosen for the show) and is proudly repping “Team Naomi,” fighting for the win.

Keep reading to check out my juicy interview with Jocelyn Chew (including modeling tips from Naomi Campbell…take notes, ladies!) and don’t forget to tune in to “The Face” on Oxygen this Tuesday, February 26th at 9/8c to follow all the action.
