"This shoot was less about beauty than about taking a risk and showing people a side of me they never have seen . . . Food is not what I use to anesthetize myself anymore."

— American Idol's Kara DioGuardi is one of five celebrities featured in Allure's special naked celebrity issue. In it, Kara discusses the pride she has in being able to strip down in front of a camera after struggling with an eating disorder in her early 20s. The other women appearing in the issue are Regina Hall, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Jessica Capshaw, and Colbie Caillat.

Colbie Caillat hit the red carpet at the 2010 People's Choice Awards in LA looking bright and bubbly in a sunny orange minidress that was smartly cinched at the waist to accentuate her figure. A gold clutch and bangle bracelet matched the embellishment on her dress perfectly, while her bone-colored peep-toe pumps completed the look. Shop similar items now!

The 2009 American Music Awards descended on the Nokia Theatre in LA last night, which meant a star studded red carpet before the big show. It was a pleasant mixture of long and short dresses on all the ladies, though some even found a way to do both simultaneously like Rihanna in her cutout gown. Carrie Underwood has the early lead in Fab's best dressed poll, but Rih is close behind. Alicia Keys stood out in blue while Fergie's high slit meant she showed off some leg as she posed. Nicole Kidman spent most of her red carpet time on the arm of her husband Keith Urban — speaking of which, check out all the guys here.

Shakira and Selena Gomez cozied up for the cameras in their standout short dresses while Demi Lovato sported some bling around her neck. Paula Abdul went all out in her black gown and Carrie Underwood kept it simple and sweet. Find out how to get some of our favorite red carpet looks like Selena and Demi here. Don't forget to vote in all of Fab and Bella's love it or leave it polls, see the full list of winners and stay tuned for more AMA coverage coming up!

Tuesdays are big in entertainmentville: not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores. So I take a spin through each week's music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download.

Let's rock: The Arctic Monkeys are back with their third album, this time with the production expertise of Queens of the Stone Age's Josh Homme. Humbug offers a solid list of rock and roll tracks, slowing things down a bit with the first single "Crying Lightning." I'm also partial to "Cornerstone" and the first track, "My Propeller."

Heap of faith: After giving Imogen Heap's third album Ellipse a listen, the first word that came to my mind was "lovely." The songs have a clean, almost new-age feel, showcasing Heap's voice as she harmonizes with herself on track after track. I love how she mixes things up a bit in "Earth," and "Swoon" is also one of my early favorites.

One more album to download, so just read more
