Entertainment: Controversial photos of Ellen Adarna from magazine shoot leak online

MANILA, Philippines - A local magazine 'Esquire Philippines' has condemned the leaked nude photos of sexy actress and model Ellen Adarna as a "blatant violation of her privacy" and has asked the public to refrain from spreading it online.

Some of the alleged leaked nude photos of Ellen were published on a popular gossip blog site on Wednesday, September 17.

“Yesterday I received good and bad news. Today will be a f***king good day. Moving on.” This is how Ellen Adarna greeted the news on her Instagram account on Wednesday that her nude photographs from a photo shoot with men's magazine Esquire Philippines were leaked online.

The ABS-CBN actress appeared partly nude on the cover on the April issue of Esquire Philippines.
Here is the Esquire Philippines' complete statement:

“Esquire Philippines and Summit Media condemn the unauthorized distribution of photographs of Ellen Adarna that were originally taken from a shoot the magazine had staged for its April 2014 edition. She had agreed to be featured in Esquire Philippines with the understanding that no nude photographs taken of her then would be published or disseminated. The recent circulation of such sensitive photos without her (or our) knowledge or consent is in blatant violation of her privacy, and her right to dignity. We share her outrage; we are deeply angry; we will not hesitate to take the appropriate legal action.

“The images in question, staged with photographer Jake Versoza, were never used in the magazine itself, and in most cases, were never even in the possession of the magazine. The images we did use from the shoot were treated to make sure any sensitive areas were artfully covered or obscured, as had been the agreement.”

“It is apparent as well to Esquire magazine that its own rights, as well as that of photographer Jake Versoza, have been infringed. We will take the proper measured action to protect its rights. Most importantly, we urge all not to participate in the dissemination of sensitive images that were not intended for public by the one person whose rights and dignity above all else’s should be respected at this time.”

Entertainment: Mila Kunis ‘pregnancy details'


Mila Kunis is said to prefer being naked as she nears the end of her pregnancy.

The 31-year-old actress is expecting her first child with fiancé Ashton Kutcher. And while their new arrival is due any day now, Mila is reportedly finding it difficult to cope in the summer heat.

So instead of getting dressed, Mila is allegedly finding it more comfortable going nude.

“She’s so big, and the baby is moving a lot,” a source told America’s OK! Magazine. “Nothing makes her feel more comfortable and relaxed than being naked.”

Unsurprisingly, Mila’s fiancé Ashton, 36, is more than happy by the actress’ new lifestyle choice.

According to the source, Ashton “doesn’t mind in the least” that Mila is shunning clothes.
He is also said to be finding it tough to prevent Mila from going “stir crazy” before the baby arrives, and “keeps trying to come up with fun activities to get her out of the house.”

Entertainment: During the 'Fashion Rocks' event Justin Bieber Booed While Stripping on Stage

The pop star 'Justin Bieber' participated in a very awkward sketch during the Fashion Rocks concert in New York City Tuesday night, when he stripped down to his underwear to showcase his Calvins (talk about product placement). But the crowd didn't seem to enjoy the semi-nudity, booing him from the moment Bieber appeared onstage to when he began flexing in his undies.

Bieber has been accumulating a collection of troubling incidents of late, from ATV accidents to physical altercations with other celebs, plus arrests for house-egging and driving under the influence. His image has been severely tarnished, even when clothed.
During the concert, the singer presented alongside supermodel Lara Stone. He began his sketch by saying, barely audible over the boos, "So, uh, I actually don’t feel comfortable unless I’m in my Calvins, so … is that cool?”

But Bieber, ever the professional, worked through the negativity. He later tweeted and posted a Vine about the moment, saying he "killed 'em with kindness."
