Kim Kardashian faced more than photographers' flashbulbs when she walked the red carpet Thursday night to launch her new fragrance, True Reflection.
Sheriff's deputies say a woman threw white powder on the 31-year-old reality TV star in the lobby of a hotel in West Hollywood, Calif., where the television personality was hosting the launch event.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department says deputies were called to the London Hotel on North San Vicente Boulevard shortly before 8 p.m.
Deputy Peter Gomez says the woman who allegedly threw the powder, which appeared to be baking flour, was detained by hotel security and later released at the scene.
Gomez says Kardashian, who was clad in black and got most of the powder on her head and shoulders, told the deputies she did not want to press charges against the woman. A non-criminal battery report was taken
Gomez says paramedics were called to the hotel, but Kardashian refused medical treatment.
He says Kardashian returned to her room, removed the powder from her hair, changed clothing and returned to the event.
"That probably is the craziest, unexpected, weird thing that ever happened to me.
"Like I said to my make-up artist, I wanted more powder and that's a whole lot of translucent powder right there."
Gomez says Kardashian told the deputies she did not want to press charges against the woman and a non-criminal battery report was taken
Gomez says paramedics were called to the hotel, but Kardashian refused medical treatment.
He says Kardashian returned to her room, removed the powder from her hair and clothing and returned to the event.

AtEdmonton Events Center on Friday March 9.
              19year-old Malcolm "Mac Miller" McCormick has taken the nation by stormsince recording his first songs in the Fall of 2007. The Pittsburgh rapperbasically owes his fame to the buzz created by his online audience, with hisYoutube videos exceeding well over 15 million views each, and selling over amillion singles with barely any radio play. Back in 2010, Miller signed withRostrum Records and on November 8, 2011 he released his debut album Blue Slide Park, which made it onto the Billboard 200 list in the first week, making Mac Miller the first independent artist in 16 yearsto have made number one on the charts.
 Adoringfans, young and old, scurried inside the Edmonton Events Center to find a simplestage set containing two light posts and a DJ booth with a home-made looking sign that read, "Blue Slide Park.” The basic set kept theattention solely on Miller and his long time friend and the Assistant Managerat Rostrum Records, Quentin or "Q" for short. Q provided the back upvocals for the night and emanated pure energy that flowed out into the crowd of1800 people from the ages of 12 to 35.Miller came on stage wearinga black hoodie, jeans, white and black running shoes, sunglasses and hissignature backwards hat. The show went on for about an hour and 15 minutestransitioning between his hit songs and some free style raps in between. “Knock, Knock,” Miller’s first single with Rostrum Records was the high point tothe show (A video of the live song can be found below). Before the song wasplayed he hinted at what song he was going to play next by holding his microphonein the air and knocking his fist against it; the crowd went wild and sang alongwith great enthusiasm.  
It was clearlyevident that Miller felt completely at home on stage and delivered Lady Gagatype inspirational messages every once in a while. One that stuck out in my mindwas when he was encouraging his fans to, “just sing if you wanna sing- it don’tmean anything if you’re bad."  When youdidn’t think the audiences’ spirits could be lifted any higher, the abovephrase caused the audience to somehow sing every song for the rest of the show as loud as they could. Miller was also sure to emphasize the fact that he too was just another kid pursuing his dreams, doing what he loves and working hard. He continued to encourage those who worked, went to school or studied all week wishing them luck and happiness and repeated the famous lyrics "Were just some mother-bleeping-kids" from his hit song, "Kool Aid & Frozen Pizza."Miller wasn’t afraid to getintimate with his fans, he was completely comfortable with slowing it down alittle and dedicating one of his songs to his mom and thanking his fans for allof their support, without them and their ability to share his videos and songson Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and Tumblr, Miller surely would not be where he istoday.
This was Miller's second time playing at the Edmonton Events Center and he will without a doubt he will be returning to see his devoted Albertan fans once again.

RUMOR STATUS: CONFIRMED!

After weeks of rumors spreading like wildfire about Nicole“Snooki” Polizzi’s newly discovered pregnancy, the Jersey Shore reality star finally confirmed the story exclusivelyto US Weekly (on stands March 7th, 2012).
“OMG! I’M PREGNANT!” was the headline of the story, followedby an interview between US Weekly and Nicole. The father of her guidette-to-beand boyfriend of a year and a half, Jionni LaValle, was also able to take partin the interview, mentioning to the magazine’s staff that the couple is alsonewly engaged!
“We’re not going to screw this up.” LaValle said, when askedabout the couple’s plans for the baby. Snooki chimed in, adding that althoughshe has definitely been known for her crazy antics and reckless behavior, herpriorities have changed after receiving the great news.
“I don’t care what anyone else says, as long as I know I’mready and he’s ready.” Polizzi confidently told US Weekly with her signaturedisplay of Jersey-attitude.
US Weekly reported that since the couple learned about thepregnancy shortly after New Years Eve, they admitted that they were worried fora little while. Polizzi mentioned that she had been drinking quite heavily thatnight, so her baby’s health was definitely concern for her.
All worries aside, Polizzi and LaValle are overjoyed aboutthe pregnancy as well as their engagement. Snooks even took a moment to Tweetto her fans, thanking them for their support.
“Thanks to all my fans for the congrats!! I love you all.”This tweet most definitely confirmed the rumors, as it came from Snookiherself.
Here at Engaging Reality, we believe that Snooks might eventurn out to be a good mother. Believe it or not, the party girl’s crazy anticscould prove to be very beneficial towards mothering her child.
No, we don’t mean Snooki will be switching themini-meatball’s formula with some of Ronnie’s “special” smoothies, we mean thather body is basically ready for the intense life of motherhood.
For example, the fact that Polizzi can keep partying fromnight until well into the next morning, waking up to help her crying baby at 2in the morning should not be a problem! Not to mention, although she may be acrazy drama queen, Snooki always puts her family and friends first. No one intheir right mind should even try getting in the way of her and her child.
Also, even though we pray that Snooki Jr. won’t come out ofthe womb with a mini-hair pouf, we do know that the couple’s baby is going tobe one stylish newborn. We are sure that Snooks and LaValle are going to spoilthat child rotten.
All jokes and worries aside, Polizzi and Jionni definitelyhave their work cut out for them. How many guidos does it take to change adiaper? We will just have to wait and see.
Here at Engaging Reality, we give our most sincerecongratulations to the happy couple.
MEATBALL POWER.

At just 13-years-oldDoris purchased a 50s inspired dress for a school dance that changed her life. “I hadnever felt prettier” Doris tells Anderson Cooper in an interview, “I knew thatthis was how I wanted to look. I wanted to look classy and feminine, I didn’twanna look like my peers.” A pinup photographer and good friend of Doris' said that,"Doris is unique and takes her lifestyle to a whole new level; she's in it full force."At theage of 16 Doris, whose birth name is Ashley, joined a roller derby team. Sheshowed up to the first practice wearing fake eyelashes and had pin-curled hair,realizing that the name 'Ashley' wasn't a suitable name for a derby girl, she came up with Doris Mayday, after thefamous actress and singer Doris Day, from then on the name stuck.            Dorisbegan modelling at the age of 21. In 2009 she was judging a pinup modeling contest when she was asked by the headof Bettie Page Clothing to be a model for their company. Doris then went onfrom being a model to becoming the manager of the Bettie Page Clothing store inthe Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she now lives with herboyfriend Dylan.            Dorisis a collector of anything vintage, her home is filled with vintage goodiesthat go back all the way to the 1930s- her couch, TV, kitchen table and even the curtains are all vintage pieces that she has collected over theyears. Doris does her best to avoid any modern conveniences and has even hired a personal etiquette coach to ensure that she behaves like the perfect, put together woman of the 1950s.Whenasked by Anderson,“why the 50s” Doris replied with,“Idon’t like my generation. I don’t like their music, I don’t like the way theytreat people and I don’t like the way they dress.”           Icontacted Doris hoping to ask her some questions about a MySpace blog post ofhers from February 2007, but she was unable to get back to me.  In the post she vents about a group of girlswho glared and stared at her because of the way that she was dressed. Dorisgoes on to state that,“Corsets,heels, stockings, satin gloves, tight dresses and divine accessories are thingsthat embrace your [womanhood]… and make you OH SO POWERFUL.” Sheprofesses that it is unsettling to her that ladies choose to “hold grudges,talk shit and just be flat out rude to our own gender [when] we don’t even knoweach other."Iwould have liked to asked Doris how she deals with the “glares and stares” now and what she would say to women outthere who are being bullied because they choose to dress a certain way thatis different from the ‘ideal image"of the twenty-firstcentury.

Move Over, Red Bull!

As if being known as the most popular coffee brand in North America wasn'tenough, Starbucks has decided to raise the bar even higher by launching theirown brand of energy drinks. According to a recent article in Huffington Post,the company's brand of drinks called "Refreshers" have already becomeavailable to consumers in select markets, coming in three revitalizingflavours: Orange Melon, Raspberry Pomegranate, and Strawberry Lemonade.
Although the concept is very appealing, writers at Huffington Post presentthe idea that even a company like Starbucks may not be able to keep up with theever-growing energy drink market. Red Bull is in the process of creating a0-calorie drink, which may affect Starbucks Refreshers' sales, according toHuffington Post. However, these fruity flavours do sound much more appealingthan the awful, bitter taste found in many older brands of energy drinks.Here at Engaging Reality, it is no secret that weare Starbucks addicts. We are personally very excited to start seeing theseRefreshers on stands, not only because of the health and price aspects, but webelieve that the idea itself is so impressive. By putting a line of energydrinks in a café that is frequented by students and young adults, Starbucks issure to gain an excellent profit off of sales. The drinks are cheap, trendy,and healthy—all of which are elements that will surely boost interest and salesfor the product.
Starbucks has also recently launched their first Evolution Fresh Juice store! Check out an article about it in Huffington Post by clicking the link below:

These new drinks come in 12-ounce cans and are only 60 calories! Numberslike that will surely be a selling point for the health-conscious customer.However, what makes these energy drinks different than a traditional shot ofespresso? Well, they contain green coffee abstract for a boost of energywithout the bitter taste of coffee.

One of the greatest aspects of these new energy drinks is that they are allnatural. Rather than mixing a bunch of chemicals to create some sort of magicalenergy boost, the drinks' creators used the abstract as a healthy alternative.Also, Perez Hilton reported on his website that the drinks are rumored to beset at $1.99 per can which is an amazing deal for us broke University students.

The design of the cans themselves adds appeal to the product, because thebright colors contrasting the traditional Starbucks logo create a visuallypleasing outer shell. As I am a Starbucks-loving student myself, I wascertainly brought in by the colorful packaging. Not to mention, these Refresherscould be a nice change from the regular order of many customers.



"If anyone was going toinnovate in coffee while delivering on an untapped energy and refreshment needingstate, it would be Starbucks.” Annie Young-Scrivner, global chief marketingofficer for Starbucks and president of Tazo Tea, said in a press release.(Quote provided by Huffington Post).



Keep your eyes open for these 12-ounce cans ofenergy, as 160,000 Starbucks locations will begin carrying Refreshers by theend of April.
