She was brunet; now that she's a budding North American star, she's blond. Shakira says her blondification was not a marketing move, merely a whim: "The color of my hair is a completely secondary consideration for me. Latin women are always making these little changes.

And with the ultrashort miniskirt coming into fashion, it was more pressing than ever that I find out how to differentiate haute couture from the Jersey mall...
Cage used to be just an actor--a fabulously unpredictable one, equal parts promise and menace. For his first decade in movies, he danced on the weird side: as a blond goofball in Valley Girl, the blind Vietnam vet of Birdy, Moonstruck's one-handed Romeo, the drifter haphazardly hired as a killer in Red Rock West. With a personality that mixed yelping hound dog with doleful hangdog, Cage raised moping to an art. He suggested a man wrestling with himself to hide the psycho loner or lover within. He was sweet on the surface and wild at heart...
