No dud in fashion

Los Angeles – Kevin Federline, aka K-Fed and Mr. Britney Spears, is more than just a rapper, dancer and famous father.

He’s also a fashion model.

Federline has been tapped again to be the face of Five Star Vintage clothing, company spokesman Kenneth Loo said Wednesday. Federline made his modeling debut with the company over the summer. His latest ads, showcasing the company’s holiday line, will begin appearing next month.

The company chose Federline again because of his “renegade style,” Loo said, and because it nearly sold out of each outfit Federline modeled.

The ads show Federline wearing sunglasses, a white tank top and two different jackets from the company’s holiday line.

Cameron Diaz alleges photographer assault

Los Angeles – Cameron Diaz filed a police report Wednesday accusing a photographer of assault with a deadly weapon for allegedly driving his car at her, police said.

Diaz and her boyfriend, Justin Timberlake, were leaving a friend’s home in Hollywood just after midnight Wednesday when a photographer who had been hiding in the bushes jumped out and tried to snap a picture of the pair, said police Officer April Harding.

The couple chased the photographer “a short distance,” she said.

“The photographer got into his car and drove toward Diaz and Timberlake, causing Diaz to jump out of the car’s way,” Harding said.

No one was immediately arrested and no suspects have been identified.

“The investigation is in its initial stages,” Harding said.

A law that took effect this year holds photographers who engage in criminal behavior to get a picture liable for three times the damages they cause, plus loss of any profits the published photo might generate.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt donate to humanitarian funds

Washington – Movie stars Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are giving gifts of $1 million each to two humanitarian organizations, an adviser to the couple said Wednesday.

The recipients are Global Action for Children and Medecins sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders.

“In the most troubled parts of the world – places that much of the world has abandoned – MSF is always there,” said Jolie in a statement issued by Trevor Neilson, the couple’s philanthropic and political adviser. “I have seen these brave men and women working in war zones and horrific conditions and I deeply admire them.”

Jolie is a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. High Commission for Refugees.

Jennifer Delaney, U.S. director for Global Action for Children, expressed her thanks for the gift from the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.

“Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt not only care, but more important, are taking concrete action to address the fact that there will be 20 million children orphaned by AIDS by 2010, and millions more orphaned by tuberculosis, malaria and conflict or whose parents are sick and dying,” she said.

Delaney said the vast majority of these children are being cared by extended families and communities that need support to overcome the ravages of HIV/AIDS and poverty.

Supermodel reveals painful beauty secrets

New York – Petra Nemcova knows what it’s like to struggle to stay thin and continue modeling.

“I’m naturally more curvy, so I always had to lose weight,” the 27-year-old Czech supermodel says in People magazine’s Oct. 2 issue, on newsstands Friday. “I took laxatives. I went through all of it just to be able to model.”

Nemcova appeared on the cover of the 2003 Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. She has appeared in magazines including Vogue and Marie Claire, and has modeled for Victoria’s Secret.

She was vacationing in Thailand with her boyfriend Simon Atlee in December 2004 when waves from a deadly tsunami swept through their beach hut. Atlee, a 33-year-old British fashion photographer, was killed. Nemcova suffered a broken pelvis.

Nemcova recounted her story in an autobiography, “Love Always, Petra,” co-authored with Jane Scovell.
