Provocative New Music Video

The Caribbean ladies make for a sizzling combination in the hot video, for the first single from the ‘Why Wait’ singer’s tenth album, ‘Shakira

Lyrically, it’s about how easy it is to forget how bad someone is for you when you still love them. Musically, Shakira has reverted back to the guitar-tinged new wave pop of her last English-language album, ‘She Wolf’.

Shakira is back with a brand new steamy music video - and this time Rihanna has also come along for the ride.

The Colombian stunner has teamed up with the Bajan beauty for the provocative "Can't Remember To Forget You" clip.

The video has already racked up around four million views.

In 2007, Gillette determined that Rihanna's legs were the most goddess-like of them all. She also scored $1 million worth of coverage for her sexy pins.

Insurance: $1 million

"I work with a trainer," Rihanna told People. "We work on the arms. I don't want manly, muscular arms. We work out my but# because I love my but#. [But] my legs are my main focus. I'm obsessed."

Elsewhere, One Direction’s ‘Midnight Memories’ album continues to smash records after it achieved the biggest pre-order in iTunes history, and sold 237,000 copies in its first seven days on sale. The band are the first ever to have their first three albums debut at No.1 in the US Billboard chart.

One Direction are nominated for Best British Group and Best British Single at the 2014 Brit Awards and will be touring the UK and Ireland in May and June.

He dubbed the 37-year-old Colombian singer, who appears in various provocative positions with Rihanna, a reference point for a society in moral decay.

Mr Ramirez, a self-styled ‘defender of morals and principles’ said the pair should be ashamed with the song he claims also promotes tobacco use, stealing and killing.

Rihanna then shows up, and it's not long before the pair get up close and personal - gyrating against a wall, cavorting on a duvet and sensuously smoking cigars.

Shakira dished the dirt on what it was like working with RiRi, 25, in February's edition of Glamour magazine.

"Working with her was utopia," said the 36-year-old mom-of-one, who gave birth to Barcelona soccer star Gerard Pique's son Milan in Barcelona, Spain, last January.

5 Inspiring Quotes From the Women A.R.E. Summit

What do you get when you cross 300 of the country's most driven women with a stage, a few microphones, and the common goal of advancing women's roles? An awe-inspiring first Women A.R.E. (Aspire. Respond. Engage) Summit. Thrown by Women A.R.E. founders Angella Nazarian and Beth Friedman, the one-day event in Los Angeles united trailblazers in the fields of art, entrepreneurship, health and wellness, and philanthropy in a series of panels featuring speakers such as Sharon Stone, Kathy Freston, Chelsea Handler, and Catherine Opie. With so many inspiring women in one room, it's no surprise that I left with some nuggets of wisdom. Here are my five favorite gems from the day.

"Women don't have to be jealous of other women." —Chelsea Handler
"I didn't want to be an actress; they're not fun to be around," said Handler, who discovered the competitive and jealous side of the entertainment world when she first began auditioning in Hollywood at age 19. "When you do stand-up, you're the center of your universe," she said. Handler went on to forge her own path, becoming the first female late-night television host, best-selling author, and one of 2011's Glamour Women of the Year to boot. Currently, Handler employs a 500-person staff across multiple shows, and 300 of those staff members are women. Her motto? "[Women] should lift each other up."

"Love others and lighten up!" —Marianne Williamson
Williamson, who just announced her first run for Congress in California, has impacted countless lives with her spiritual advice, 10 books, and the founding of Project Angel Food, which delivers meals in Los Angeles to homebound people affected by AIDS. And then she said this: "Being the best person you know how to be, living as heart-centered a life as possible is the key to success in work and everything else."

"Do what you are passionate about, and the dollars will follow." —Jane Wurwand
"You have to have fun," said Wurwand, founder of skin care line Dermalogica. Julie Clark, who launched Baby Einstein—and later sold it to Disney—shared similar sentiments as well as her own wisdom, also drawn from experience. "When you are passionate, you are afraid, because you are putting yourself on the line. It's difficult to take the first step, but that's what draws the good juju to you."

"You get to make this whole thing up as you go along." —Abigail Disney
"I wish I had known that anything is possible," said filmmaker and grassroots activist Abigail Disney of what she wishes she knew at the beginning of her career. "I thought there were lines, like in a coloring book, and I had to stay in them. There are no borders, and there are no limits. You get to make this whole thing up as you go along." And the proof is in the pudding: The pioneering women's rights documentarian is currently at work on her next project, highlighting the Arab Spring and its effect on women in the Middle East.

"Give of yourself whatever you can give, but don't put a judgment on it." —Wallis Annenberg
"Never explain to anybody, 'I can only afford this,'" said keynote speaker Annenberg, who recently bestowed the city of Beverly Hills with the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts. In her speech, Annenberg emphasized being true to yourself and experimenting to find what you enjoy. A passionate philanthropist, Annenberg continues to reap the rewards of her work in culture and for her community. "You can't get that in a Neiman Marcus catalogue," she reminded the audience.

Nia Long Dishes About The Best Man Holiday With Us

Fans of the 1999 hit movie The Best Man have long been looking forward to the sequel, The Best Man Holiday, which finally hits theaters today. One of the film's stars Nia Long, who plays sexy-smart Jordan Armstrong, stopped by Glamour HQ to talk about why the original film resonates with so many and what to expect from the much-anticipated sequel.

Tell us about the movie!
Nia: The film is basically about a group of friends that reunite after 15 years, real time. They reunite for the holidays. My character, Jordan, is a television producer. She’s now kind of running a network. Her challenge is that she’s not quite sure how to balance love and career. There’s a bunch of other characters, but Jordan is one of the characters from the original film. The movie is really about a group of friends getting together for the holiday and any and everything that could possibly happen happens. The good stuff, the bad stuff, you need tissues, there’s a lot of laughter, there’s beautiful women, sexy guys—there’s a little bit of everything. And it kind of kicks off the holiday spirit.

What do you think this film is going to mean to 20 year olds who may have not seen the original film,The Best Man?

Nia: Well, you know what’s interesting? I feel like the audience that knew us 14 years ago are now all the professional women who were just starting out in their careers. So it’s like, oh wow, my trajectory is good. And the women who are just starting out their careers are going to look at these characters and go, “OK, that’s where I want to go. That’s where I want to be.” Because each character has a really good profession. They're very contemporary characters. I think it‘s always great when you can go to a film and see something that you see in yourself or see in a friend, you know, something in common with the characters on film is always a great thing. And I think the younger audience is going to appreciate it just as much, and I don’t think you need to see the first one to get the second one.

Is the chemistry sort of still the same between your character and Taye Diggs’ character?
Nia: Well, it’s different now because obviously he’s married—he got proposed to in the last one. So he’s married, but I feel like there’s still those beats of, “Is he the one that got away?” You know how you have that one guy where you’re like, “Did I make the right move and the right choice?” Or maybe he’s thinking that about you? I still feel like we have that report with one another in the film, for sure.

Have you stayed in touch with everyone over the years?
Nia: We’re all friends. It’s kind of scary. I’m flying home with Terrence Howard tonight, which I’m really looking forward to. I just have to tell the flight attendant when to stop the liquor because I could see it getting real fun up in there! We’re all really good friends, and most of us have actually worked together before. Like, Morris Chestnut and I were in Boys in the Hood together, Terrence Howard and I were in Big Momma’s Housetogether, Sanaa Lathan and Taye did Brown Sugar together, and then Melissa De Sousa and Harold Perrineau actually went to college together and danced for Alvin Ailey together. There’s a scene in the film where the guys do Air Band and perform a song from New Edition, and you can tell the real dancers from actors because the real dancers are in your face and dramatic, and the actors are like, what? They’re good, but you can see the difference! It was nice because the ladies actually got to sit back and watch the men. You know, usually it’s us, the women, who are put on display. So we got to do a little objectifying ourselves by watching the boys perform. It was good.

Top 5: Sexiest Movie Scenes

The great thing about winter season is that it gives you a reason to sit down, pour a glass of wine, and cosy-up in front of a good movie. This week FashionTV takes a look at five of the sexiest movie scenes of all time, past and present.

Whether they are about love, sex, or obsession; a well produced sexy scene can leave an impression for a lifetime. From cult movie moments to our editor’s personal picks, see if you agree with our sexy selection.

Salma Hayek’s Sensual Table Dance

It’s a cult moment, when Salma Hayek takes to the table in Quentin Tarantino's 1996 movie “From Dusk Till Dawn,” wearing little more than a snake and seducing Quentin himself with her confident strides. But you could never tell that Salma had a deathly fear of the reptiles from this scene...

Jessica Alba’s Sin City Dance

She is one of the most beautiful women in the world and took on the role as exotic dancer Nancy Callahan in 2005 box office hit “Sin City.” Following the release of the movie, the actress revealed that she needed to visit strip clubs to learn the ropes, and despite choosing not to get nude for her role: a lasso and chaps were always going to be sexy enough.

Cameron Diaz is a Bad Teacher

She’s washing cars to help raise money for her students in "Bad Teacher" (2011) and kindly dresses in her skimpiest attire for the occasion. Wearing a pair of killer hotpants and a plaid shirt tied at the waist, Cameron gets seriously involved in foaming the cars and herself... all in the name of a worthy cause.

Two for One: Vicky Cristina Barcelona Kiss

Written and directed by Woody Allen, “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” (2008) sees Rebecca Hall and Scarlett Johannson on vacation in Spain where they meet painter Javier Bardem. But it is the famous scene between Scarlett and Javiers ex-wife, played by Penelope Cruz, that is the sexiest of them all: where we witness an intimate moment in the dark room between all three.

Blue is the Warmest Colour

It is being advertised as one of the most sexually explicit movies of all time (aside from porn), and has just hit the American screens. "Blue is the Warmest Colour" (2013) is a French film that explores the relationship of a teenage girl who falls in love with an older woman. The movie, which has received rave reviews from the Toronto International Film Festival has also been dubbed controversial, with intimate sex scenes lasting for a full, uninterrupted 6 minutes.

Esther Heesch | Fall 2013-14

Falling in at second place, was Esther Heech, who made it to the list for her debut appearance. Will the gorgeous German revive, or break her spot for Spring/Summer 2014 too?

Victoria’s Secret 2013 Fashion Show

The show we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived, and we were there to capture all the best moments. Although the show won’t be airing on network television till December, we’ve put together some exclusive clips for your viewing pleasure NOW.

Backstage at the Victoria’s Secret show, we catch up with all the models while they are getting their hair and makeup done and wearing those ever-so-cute pink monogrammed silk robes. Then we grab our seats in the audience and start filming (and ohhhing and awwwing). We’ve got footage of some of the highlights of the show that just can’t be missed!

Take a trip down the East Coast away from the VS show in New York and travel to Miami where the highly anticipated Funkshion Fashion Week Miami Beach took place. Funkshion is a fashion show that fuses fashion and music together to bring that extra funk to both worlds. This show marked the 25th anniversary since the show’s inception.  This is a show dedicated to emerging progressive designers who get to present their collections to the media, celebrities, international buyers and the public, so tensions were high! Also, the general public is invited to attend for free (of course you must get an RSVP in advance)!

Finally we bring you footage from the fashion shows at Fashion Rio. In its 24th edition, Fashion Rio in Brazil kicked off with three local designers presenting their Winter 2014 collections and we immediately saw a pattern: monochromatic colors, lots of leather--suede and smooth--and dynamic animal prints.

1 -  Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2013 Backstage

The Victoria’s Secret models explain what they are feeling before the show while they get ready while wearing their silk pink signature Victoria’s Secret robes. We checked out the hair products and see lots of 2-inch barrel curling irons, which the hair stylists use on the girls horizontally rather than vertically! We are definitely going to be trying that this week!

2 -  Sneak Peak of the Victoria’s Secret 2013 Runway Show

We’ve compiled some of the can’t-miss parts of the show to put in our exclusive sneak peek video. The show officially airs on CBS on December 10, but for those who can’t wait to see some of the action, this video will surely satisfy!

3 - La GlamRock Runway Show from Funkshion Fashion Week Miami Beach

Miami native Lauren Ashley presented her new collection for La GlamRock, and it was a crowd favorite. Her distinctive fashion-forward with a spicy rock star edge has gained quite a cult following in Miami and beyond. She says her woman is one who “knows who she is, what she wants and is not afraid to make that distinctive statement with her fashion."

4 - Felizola Runway Show from Funkshion Fashion Week Miami Beach

This highly anticipated collection featured many form-hugging fit long dresses that made models that accentuated the models’ tall and slender frames. Felizola has received much recognition for his work in the fashion industry such as "Victoria Puig de Lange Award 2012," "Ibero Personality of the Year 2012" in Paris and the Medal of Merit by the U.S. Congress. This past March he was dubbed as the newest "Miami Fashion ICON Award" by Miami Fashion Week.

5 - Coca Cola Jeans Winter 2014 Show at Fashion Rio

This show had some celebrity cred as actress Bruna Marquezine kicked off the show. She is the girlfriend of Brazilian footballer Neymar, which when seeing the collection, was a nice touch--after all, the overall theme in this collection was inspired by the game itself. The sporty chic collections took the theme so literal by adding numbers to the fronts and backs, just like on a jersey.
