British Page 3 Girl and glamor model Keeley Hazell will front Sony’s latest video game MotorStorm Pacific Rift for PlayStation 3.
Pacific Rift is an ambitious sequel to MotorStorm, one of PS3’s best selling titles. The latest version, set in a tough tropical island, offers more attacks and eight vehicles (including the new Monster Truck) on 16 original tracks through land, sea, fire and air.
“To work with PlayStation 3 and fast cars was too much of a fun opportunity to miss,” said Hazel, known for her natural 32 EE’s. “I would have loved the chance to have driven the real rally car, but I will be more than satisfied with having a blast on the new game.”
The 22-year-old beauty was also the face of Sony’s Formula One 06 video game for PlayStation 2 as well as F1 CE for PlayStation 3.
Besides that, did you know that Keeley was hailed a couple of years ago as an “environmental hero” for her campaigns in The Sun, giving environmental tips such as turning lights off during sex and using digital cameras.
Come to think it, I’d love to save the environment any given day.

Canadian rock star Avril Lavigne will feature in a major advertising campaign to boost sales of Canon Rebel SLR series and ELPH cameras.
Over the the next few months we should see the Grammy-nominated cutie in two television commercials as well as a series of ads across other media.
“Working with Canon Canada is truly exciting for me, as I’m a huge photography fan,” said the 24-year-old singer and songwriter who has sold over 30 million albums worldwide. “I’ve used Canon cameras for many years, so working with Canon Canada is truly exciting for me. I carry my camera with me all the time and am constantly taking pictures. Canon is definitely second to none in the quality of products they offer”.
“Avril’s energy and spirit is the perfect complement to the Canon brand,” said Ian Macfarlane, VP and general manager of the Consumer Imaging Group at Canon Canada Inc. “She exemplifies the style and energy that our products offer to Canadians and as one of this country’s biggest musical talents.”
The event announcing the collaboration also featured the Canadian debut of the two television commercials and the launch of a new Canon microsite (shootlikeastar.ca), that will allow fans to upload their photos and decorate them using elements from Lavigne’s TV commercials.

US country music sensation Taylor Swift has dared to don the “milk mustache” for the latest campaign of “Got Milk?”
“In this business, you’ve got to be decisive. So I choose milk. Some studies suggest that teens who choose milk instead of sugary drinks tend to be leaner and the protein helps build muscle. So eat right, exercise and drink 3 glasses of lowfat or fat free milk a day. Music to my ears.”
I think it’s a superb way to draw the attention of teens away from drugs and other illegal stuff — Taylor, 18, instead of saying “Say No to Drugs” (which just doesn’t work that way, by the way) is trying the pro-active way to prompt teens to do the right thing.
Milk and music. Sounds like healthy country music!

Luxury comes in all colors and flavors, shapes and sizes–and material. Style coupled with luxury is the ultimate essence of good living and socializing. And if you want to flaunt your good taste, I can’t think of a better way to do it than using teak furniture which will set the stage for great food, fine wine, intelligent conversation and lasting impressions.
Why teak, you might ask. Simply because teak is the only truly majestic wood. Teak wood takes a little more than 50 years to mature, and it is the wood that all other timbers are compared to. Teak wood does not shrink when exposed to wind, heat or moisture, which is just one reason teak outdoor furniture is the perfect choice for garden or patio.
Talking about teak patio furniture, the choices are as magnificent as they are varied. For instance, your backyard could come alive with a well-crafted Lahaina or Naples Extension table, or even a Butterfly Leg Folding table to go with classic folding chairs, rockers or recliners. Teak wood benches add a luxurious touch while being durable and elegant as well.
What patio can be without loungers? And loungers, of course, have to be beautiful and well designed for comfort. You might want to consider some exquisite Bahamas and Pattaya teak lounger designs to impart a nice tropical touch.
Then again, those of you in pursuit of immaculately designed and matching teakwood patio furniture might want to take a look at some superb furniture sets. I’d recommend you check out some of the sophisticated Rossa Deep Seating Collection, Lahaina Extension Table & Lahaina Folding Chairs or the Rose Bech Set.
I recall Yves Saint Laurent’s words, “Fashion changes, style remains.” Teakwood is style. Sheer style.

Lately, my keyboard is kicking off fumes whenever I type L-I-N-D-S-A-Y — Lindsay Lohan has been hitting news like it’s out of fashion. Only this time, it’s FOR fashion, for Fornarina, the lifestyle brand from Italy.
Italian lifestyle brand Fornarina is banking that Lilo, who announced her new position at the Fornarina Urban Beauty Show in Paris last week, will help them break into the American market. However, her first campaign will be revealed in the spring of 2009, after Fornarina has opens flagships in London, Paris and New York.
“Lindsay is that very self-confident, dynamic woman, she’s got a lot of attitude,” Scott Ronaldson, managing director of Fornari Retail, told WWD. “That’s what we’re hoping our customer will aspire to.”
