Home Care In Beverly Hills, CA

Sharon Osbourne opted for a business chic look as she stepped out for some last minute holiday shopping on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills on Monday.

The reality star, 71, looked smart in a classy plaid blazer and black flared pants. Underneath her jacket she wore a white button-up sweater.

The wife of heavy metal legend Ozzy Osbourne finalized her outfit with a black purse and matching black high-heel boots.

At one point the star stopped to admire the lavish Christmas lighting displays and decorations along the famous two-mile-long street, known for its ultra high-end designer and boutique shops.

Following a successful shopping outing, Sharon — who recently admitted that she 'needed to put weight back on' after losing 42lbs on Ozempic — was pictured returning to her car with a grey retail bag in hand.

The mom-of-three recently admitted that she 'needed to put weight back on' after losing a shocking 42lbs on Ozempic.

The drug is also known as Wegovy - the brand name for semaglutide, which works in the brain to make users feel full.

In an interview with DailyMail.com, the former X Factor judge weighed in on the effect her weight loss has had on her health.

She said: 'I’m too gaunt, and I can’t put any weight on. I want to because I feel I’m too skinny. I’m under 100 lbs, and I don’t want to be,' she explained, adding the warning, Be careful what you wish for.'

According to the Ozempic website, using the drug can have uncomfortable side effects that include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and constipation.

Sharon previously recalled the moment that she told herself she needed to stop losing weight after taking the drug.

Speaking to Woman magazine, Sharon shared: 'I started using it in November last year. I was 142lb [10st 2lb] when I started using it. For the first two or three weeks I felt very nauseous.'

'The nausea went away, but once you’re on it you don’t feel hungry and you don’t eat. It’s not talked about but you can get a blockage in your bowel.'

'I haven’t been on it for three or four months. My weight has stabilized. I went down to about 97lb [6st 13lb] and it was like, "Oh no." I needed to put some weight back on, which I have.'

Speaking about her experience with the drug, Sharon previously said: 'I’ve been off it for a while now, but my warning is don’t give it to teenagers, it’s just too easy...'

'You can lose so much weight and it’s easy to become addicted to that, which is very dangerous. I couldn’t stop losing weight and now I’ve lost 42 lbs. and I can’t afford to lose any more.'

In an interview with Piers Morgan in September, Sharon spoke about how the side effects affected her: 'I was about two three weeks where I felt nauseous the whole time. You get very thirsty and you don’t eat.'

She spoke about her concerns over the weight loss drug which left her 'feeling nauseous the whole time' as she appeared on Good Morning Britain.

Sharon told hosts Ben Shephard and Kate Garraway: 'It does what it says on the packet, it absolutely does. But my only fear is that it is put in the right hands. I don't think it's for teenagers at all.

'I'm scared for 16 to 20-year-olds. It's easy to say; "This is it, I can eat what I want and keep taking this injection. I think it needs to be in the hands of older people that totally understand that there can be side effects to this.

Sharon also spoke to the publication about the possibility of having surgery again is quite slim - and also doesn't know why there is a stigma around it.

She added: 'It’s difficult because I don’t know what’s going to drop in the next four or five years. I’m at an age where I shouldn’t really have any more surgery, so I don’t think so.

Sharon previously admitted that she was left looking like 'Quasimodo' after undergoing a facelift earlier this year.

She has been open about her fondness for getting plastic surgery over the years, but hasn't denied having regrets.

She revealed that she last went under the knife in order to fix a previous operation that left her looking like the deformed protagonist in Victor Hugo's novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame.

The Daily Star quotes Sharon as saying: 'There’s not one part of my body that I haven't had twisted, lifted, elongated, whatever.

'I’ve been messed up many times. This last one was a kind of fix-it job from the guy that did it before.

'I looked like Quasimodo, because I had one eye here, one eye there. It was wicked.'

As Christmas Day fast approaches, Sara Sampaio and Ray Nicholson decided to turn their weekend date night into a holiday shopping spree.

The couple — who were first linked romantically this past summer — were spotted packing on the PDA while making the rounds in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

And from the looks of the three bags they were carrying, it had already been a successful hunt.

At one point, after making a purchase, Nicholson hurried to catch up with his lady, then redistributed his two shopping bags and reached out to hold hands with the Portuguese model.

Dressed casually in baggy blue jeans and a white sweater with 'USA' emblazoned across the front, the catwalk queen then flashed an infectious smile and continued on to their next destination.

Knowing ahead of time they would be going a lot of walking, the top model comfortable wore white sneakers and had a baseball cap over her long brown locks that flowed down past the middle of her back and chest.

Nicholson, 31, opted for a dark blue jeans, a burnt orange jacket over dark blue t-shirt, and white sneakers.

The Los Angeles native, who's the 31-year-old lookalike son of Oscar-winning Jack Nicholson, also donned a baseball cap over his short dark hair, all while sported a scruffy beard and mustache.

He had already had some early success finding no less than two potential gifts, including one he bought from Diptyque, a luxury French fragrance brand founded in 1961 in Paris, France.

Following in the footsteps of his famous dad, Ray has been trying to carve out his own mark in Hollywood also an actor, whose credits include the teen drama series Panic that aired Amazon Prime Video beginning in May 2021.

He has also starring opposite of Diane Kruger in the Neil LaBute thriller film Out Of The Blue (2022), as well as the drama film Gonzo Girl (2023), that also features Camila Morrone, Willem Dafoe and Patricia Arquette.

When he's not working or with his beautiful girlfriend, Nicholson can often be seen with his father cheering on the Lakers at Crypto.com arena in Downtown Los Angeles.

Sampaio has the distinction of being the first Portuguese model to grace the pages of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue (2014)

She's also well known around the world for her time as a Victoria's Secret Angel, along with her many times as a covergirl for most of the top fashion magazines.

In a move that could send her star power even higher, the Porto, Portugal native has been added to the cast of James Gunn-directed Superman: Legacy that saw its production come to halt since the summer due to the recent SAG-AFTRA strike.

Ray Nicholson can often be found alongside his lookalike famous father, Jack Nicholson, at Laker games at Crypto.com Arena in Downtown Los Angeles; they are seen at a game in May

Skyler Gisondo is also another more recent add to the set, playing Jimmy Olsen, along with previously reported stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

Nicholson and Sampaio have been seen out together on multiple occasions packing on the PDA since the summer months, including when she celebrated her 32nd birthday in West Hollywood in July.

Sampaio was most recently linked to literary manager Zac Frognowski, and they made their last red carpet appearance together during awards season earlier this year.

The magic is back.

So are the incredibly graceful pliés, arabesques, battements, and fouettés.

Because for the first time in four years, American Ballet Theatre (ABT) danced and pirouetted its way back to Beverly Hills to host its star-studded Holiday Benefit for a special, one-night only performance at The Beverly Hilton.

It was a magical, “en pointe” kind of evening, being treated to exquisite performances from several of ABT’s celebrated principal dancers — as well as getting to meet new friends over dinner… all in support of the arts.

After a lovely cocktail reception, guests were treated to the program featuring performances by Aran Bell, Isabella Boylston, Chloe Misseldine, SunMi Park, Calvin Royal III, Jose Sebastian, Hee Seo, Christine Shevchenko, Cory Stearns, Katherine Williams, and the Los Angeles premiere of James Whiteside’s new pas de deux and scenes from The Nutcracker.

Co-Chairs Avery & Andrew F. Barth, Alissa Hsu Lynch, and Sutton Stracke were in the audience, watching the principal dancers share their stories through the art of movement. Additional guests included fans of dance (and many former and current dancers as well) such as Amanda Kloots, Becca Tobin, Camille Collard, Carly Hughes, Cassandra Trenary, Jane Seymour, Joey Zauzig, Kathy Hilton, Keltie Knight, Krys Marshall, Lesley Ann Warren, Lisa LoCicero, Natasha Kalimada, Nigel Lythgoe, NJ Falk, Pierce Brown, Retta, and more.

The benefit was held on Monday, December 11 — at the same theater that the Golden Globes takes place (and on the very same day that the nominees for the Globes were announced).

As stars walked the red carpet, I had the opportunity to meet and greet (and chat) with several of the guests about the importance of ABT’s return. Keltie Knight called the night “a dream” on the red carpet.

Jane Seymour, who is a professionally trained ballet dancer (as well as a former contestant on Dancing With The Stars) shared that “What’s so wonderful about dance is that it’s universal. You don’t have to worry about language. It’s the language of human movement. And emotion. And music.”

After the performances, guests enjoyed a starter salad right before their entrees, and then a dessert buffet.

For dance lovers, ABT will return to Southern California April 11-14 2024, performing at Costa Mesa’s Segerstrom Center for the Arts in its North American Premiere for Woolf Works. Other engagements for 2024 include February 21-25 in Washington DC, for a performance of Swan Lake.

Proceeds from the benefit support the American Ballet Theatre and its educational and engagement programs.

As for how dance lovers can support the ABT (as well as other performers), Keltie Knight shared that “if you love something, don’t love it silently. If you follow all the ABT stars, make sure you’re commentating on their posts. And something, even like supporting James [Whiteside]’s book, and buying the book, telling all your friends about it” can be an incredible way to show your passion for dance.

Keltie added that while “going and seeing dance live is the thing that really gives you the goosebumps, I love following my favorite dancers on Instagram.” Of course, you can also donate and make your contribution as an annual or monthly sustaining member of ABT as well.

Gabriela Hearst Store, CA

Gabriela Hearst opens its first store and flagship on America’s West Coast.

Gabriela Hearst has opened its new Beverly Hills store, along the street front of the famous Beverly Wilshire hotel, at the intersection of Wilshire Boulevard and Rodeo Drive.

This is Foster + Partners’ second store for the New York-based label that has created a pioneering model for ecologically responsible clothing and accessories. Much like the London flagship, the design of its Beverly Hills store is underpinned by the brand’s sustainable ethos.

Norman Foster, Founder and Executive Chairman, Foster + Partners, said: “I have long been an admirer of Gabriela’s work, and her commitment to designing with care for the environment. The new L.A. store reflects the label’s sustainable approach, with hand-crafted elements, a refined palette of high-quality materials, and bespoke furniture that is made from fallen Los Angeles Sycamore. Stepping into the store, the intention is to instantly make you feel at home.”

With an emphasis on natural materials and quality undertaken with a utilitarian perspective, the store takes inspiration from Hearst’s family ranch in Uruguay, where she grew up. The soaring vaults also speak to the city’s vernacular architecture and the work of Paul R. Williams, the architect who designed many of L.A.’s most iconic buildings – including the Beverly Wilshire – and was part of the team that conceptualised the Theme Building at Los Angeles International Airport.

Visitors can access the store from two entrances, on Wilshire Boulevard or from within the hotel. The street-facing reception hall has lower ceilings to create a more intimate entrance that opens up to an airy double-height space. Echoing the brand’s ethos of craftsmanship, the vaulted ceiling has been finished with traditional materials and techniques, including the hand-application of Roman Clay, which is an eco-friendly plaster. A VIP area features fluted glass doors and silk carpets to enhance the retail experience.

Foster + Partners has worked closely with local artisans and the New York-based makers, Benji Gavron and Antoine Dumas of Gavron Dumas Studio, who designed bespoke furniture for the project. The furniture collection, called Nomad, is a culmination of a year’s-long work. It has been sustainably made from Western Sycamore that grew within the city of Los Angeles and was once destined to be turned into wood chips. Working with local sawyers, Gavron Dumas Studio had these trees milled into the special timber. The pieces were then built by the talented artisans at DUSK, a furniture studio based in Los Angeles. The fine and freckled grain of the timber acts as a foil to the minimal white walls.

Every detail of the store has been thoughtfully considered – from the rose gold aluminium door handles, which are a modern take on Gabriela’s family ranch logo – to the bespoke rugs and wall hangings, which are based on drawings by the Brooklyn-based artist, Eli Tamarkin.

The flagship will sell the entire range of Gabriela Hearst men’s and women’s ready-to-wear collections, fine merino wool and cashmere knitwear, footwear, accessories and handbags. The location will be the exclusive retailer for the Gabriela Hearst handbag collection on the West Coast, including the Nina, the Demi, the Diana, and the Baez, amongst others.

Luis Fuentes Arambula, Partner, Foster + Partners, said: “We are delighted to see the new Gabriela Hearst store open its doors. The store is a love letter to the city of Los Angeles and a celebration of local craftsmanship. It has been a great privilege to work alongside so many talented and creative people to realise this wonderful project.”
