Leonardo Manetti and Maud Laceppe were swept away to the Bahamas by the Elle Magazine crew to shoot the most unlikely but well matched couple - Kim Kardashian and Justin Bieber. Both thrown into fame head first, with paparazzi cataloguing their every move like the stock market before a major crash - theses two know the good, the bad and the ugly of being in the limelight. The good being you get to fly to exotic places to be photographed for one of the most prominent magazines in America and have you're hair and make-up done by talented artists like Leo and Maud. The feel of the shoot was very; Hollywood couple on their annual getaway. So naturally Maud lathered on the red lips to highlight Kim's shapely mouth that is so iconic movie-star. And Leo had no problem keeping with the theme by making Kim's hair look voluminous and most importantly frizz-free. If only everyone could look so well polished and humidity resilient when on vacation. As for the mega-pop sensation Justin Bieber. He didn't need much in the department of beauty just a pair of Ray-Ban Wayfarers and cool kicks - one of the perks of being a 16 male in showbiz. The spread can be seen in the September Issue of Elle. As for Kim and Justin they have yet to confirm relationship reports, however I don't think they would have any objections to starring in a remake of the 1967 classic "The Graduate". Then again not many boys would object to having Kim as their Mrs. Robinson.
Rolando Beauchamp spent August 2nd with the glorious Eva Mendes preparing her for "The Other Guys" premier. Eva showed up her 2 male costars in a girly frock and a high pony with a bedazzled clip. Rolando always knows what hair best complements the ensemble - another home run.
Maud Laceppe beautified Lindsay Sloan for "The Other Guys" Premier. Lindsay's red dress was calling for a red lip - so Maud accentuated the mouth and played up the eyes while still keeping the overall look classic and clean.
