Liv Tyler couldn’t love anyone with bad taste in music

Actress Liv Tyler is clear about the kind of men she likes. She says she couldn’t love anyone with bad taste in music. The 39-year-old, who has son Milo, 11, from her previous marriage to singer Royston Langdon, as well as 17-month-old Sailor and Lula, four weeks, with her fiance Dave Gardner, also said she is attracted to “thoughtful, considerate” men, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“A thoughtful, considerate person melts my heart. Someone who pays attention and notices the little things. And I can’t be friends or love someone who has bad taste in music,” Grazia magazine quoted Tyler as saying.
While Tyler doesn’t get embarrassed easily, she shared that her parents — rock band Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and singer Bebe Buell — always manage to leave her red-faced with their outrageous comments. “I’m not easily embarrassed at all, but my mom and dad both manage it. They can say some pretty bold and outrageous things. They are never afraid to say what’s on their mind, that’s for sure,” she said.
Like her parents, the Lord of the Rings actress isn’t afraid to speak her mind, although she never holds a grudge after an argument or fight.
“I try not to take things too personally. If someone or something really upsets me I’m pretty straightforward about it. I am not a grudge-holder,” Tyler said. — IANS

Hard for Kim to find unique clothes


Reality TV personality Kim Kardashian has found it “hard” to find clothes to suit her “size two” body shape, despite losing 60 lbs (27.2kg) after giving birth to her son Saint.
In an interview to harpersbazaar.com, Kim spoke about choosing clothes for her body type, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
“It’s hard to find things that are unique and also fit my body type, and that are ahead of the curve and ahead of the game. I’m a size two. I happen to be curvy, but for some reason I’m the master of squeezing into anything,” she said.
“It was such a challenge at the beginning, no one would send clothes — they didn’t even think that I would fit a sample size. They would see photographs and just think that I was super curvy.”
“Even now, there are some designers that swear that I will never fit in a sample size ... so it’s fun to see when a designer finally sends something and they’re like, ‘Wait, she really fit in that sample size’.” — IANS

In the meantime, the Hanna actress will star in the upcoming series, Good Behaviour. “I was very fortunate to go from Downton Abbey on to this quite quickly. I like to keep working. I was very lucky to find something that was quite different,” she said. — IANS


Zayn Malik writing tell-all book?


Singer Zayn Malik is reportedly planning an autobiography, which will lift the lid on his five years in One Direction alongside bandmates Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson.
“This book is going to be explosive and Simon Cowell will be furious with Zayn and may even try to stop it from coming out. But Zayn is determined to reveal the secrets behind the clean image that was always so fiercely protected by the band’s publicity machine,” a source dailymail.co.uk.
