Grammys weekend is always packed with some of the best, most musical parties of the year! One that the industry all-stars always look forward to is music legend Clive Davis’s annual pre-Grammy bash, which was held at the Beverly Hilton on Saturday night. InStyle.com scoped out inside, where Tyra Banks caught up with Jennifer Hudson (in Maria Lucia Hohan), lovebirds Katy Perry (in Rafael Cennamo) held the arm of date John Mayer all night, and Miley Cyrus (in Emilio Pucci) bonded with Nicole Richie, all to honor fellow executive and The X Factor judge L.A. Reid. “One hit record after another,” Davis said of Perry during his remarks on stage. Click through the gallery to see all the stars partying during Grammy weekend!

Disney Classics Get a Revamp! Boy Meets World and Life-Size

Nov 27, 2012 @ 12:11 pm

Two Disney classics are getting modern updates—Boy Meets World and Life Size! First, cute ‘90s couple Cory and Topanga—better known as Ben Savage and Danielle Fishel—have signed on to star in the upcoming series Girl Meets World, which follows the married couple and their 13-year-old daughter Riley Matthews. “I promise with the entirety of my heart that we will make Girl Meets World with the same honesty, innocence, and intelligence that you learned to expect from Boy Meets World,” Fishel wrote on her Tumblr. We can’t wait! Next up, Tyra Banks confirmed via Twitter that she’s breaking out her tiara to play real-life doll Eve in a sequel to the original 2000 film Life-Size for Life Size 2. (No word yet if Lindsay Lohan plans to reprise her role as well.) With these Disney franchise additions, we can’t help but wonder: Is it too early to hope Hilary Duff will star in a Lizzie McGuire reunion special? Fingers crossed!

Tyra Banks’ Striped Manicure How-To

Oct 22, 2012 @ 2:01 pm

Tyra Banks certainly earned her stripes at the Flawsome Ball in New York City, where the America’s Next Top Model host matched her manicure to the graphic pattern on her white illusion dress. While the supermodel nailed the exact design, the effect isn’t too matchy-matchy, thanks to a darker color palette. To create a similar look, use a nail art polish (we love Orly’s version, $5; orlybeauty.com), which has a built-in, fine-tipped brush, for perfecting the chic chevron effect. If you have trouble holding a steady hand, use pieces of tape to section off the V-shaped pattern, then fill in using short, precise strokes. Be sure to let the base coat dry completely before sticking the tape to your nail, otherwise the polish will get pulled off when you remove the strips.

America’s Next Top Model’s New Season Starts Tonight!

Aug 24, 2012 @ 4:55 pm

America’s Next Top Model’s new season debuts tonight—and everything’s different this time around! “I’m not a person who just gets comfortable,” the show’s host and creator Tyra Banks told InStyle.com at the New York premiere of Cycle 19 this week. “Over the years, there have been so many copies of America’s Next Top Model, and they can’t catch us because we’re a moving target.” This season, the target moved to college—a decision influenced by Banks’s time spent at Harvard Business School—with the cast featuring 13 women from universities across the country. “We tested their IQs [intelligence quotients] and their EQs [emotional quotients], and their IQs are off the charts in terms of the history of Top Model,” said Banks. “These girls are super smart, but they still fight!” And not only are the contenders different, the cast is, too. Banks returns to the judges table with power publicist Kelly Cutrone, as well as newbie Rob Evans, a former boxer and male model, while fashion blogger Bryanboy joins as social media correspondent and Katy Perry’s stylist Johnny Wujek is the photo shoot creative consultant. You can also vote for your favorites, too! Tune in to watch the new era unfold on The CW tonight at 8/7c.
