Think Like a Man in Theaters: Keri Hilson on Her Scene-Stealing Dress

Apr 20, 2012 @ 5:05 pm

Think Like a Man is out today, and we caught up with Keri Hilson, who makes her movie debut in the comedy. Though the R&B songstress describes her role as more of a cameo—“don’t blink, you might miss it!”—her only outfit is pretty scene-stealing, even though she’d never pick it for herself. “It was a red and it was flowy—two things I’m not fond of,” Hilson confessed. “My mother’s favorite color is red. I guess it’s just that feeling—you don’t want to remind yourself of your mom too much. But when I’m in character, I love experimenting. That’s the only way I would’ve worn that dress!” See Hilson, and co-stars Gabrielle Union and Taraji P. Henson in Think Like a Man, in theaters now.

Get Emily Blunt’s Hot Pink Lipstick for $7

Apr 20, 2012 @ 2:10 pm

We loved the bright pink lip Emily Blunt wore to the New York premiere of The Five Year Engagement so much, we tracked down the exact shade! Blunt’s makeup artist Jenn Streicher used CoverGirl’s Lip Perfection Lipstick in Spellbound, which is available for $7 at drugstore.com. To try the look, Streicher recommends starting with a clean canvas. “Exfoliate the lip to remove any dry skin,” she told InStyle.com. “This will give you a smooth application. I like to apply my color with a lip brush to create a clean, straight line. Opt for a minimal eye, and try a touch of bronzer for a fresh spring look.” Now that’s a pretty pout!
