Pirelli Calendar 2011 by Karl Lagerfeld

During a press conference in Moscow this past Tuesday, Karl Lagerfeld presented his rendition of the famed Pirelli Calendar for 2011. Focusing on Greek mythology, the 2011 calendar includes 36 photographs featuring 21 different protagonists from the Greek legends. Models include Lara Stone (as Aphrodite, appropriately enough), Bianca Balti (as a Bacchante), Freja Beha Erichsen (as Apollo, Pollux, Orpheus), Isabeli Fontana (a Bacchante), Magdalena Frackowiak (as Athena, Estia), Anja Rubik (as Hermes, Terpsichore), Abbey Lee Kershaw (as Echo, Castor, Eurydice), Lakshmi Menon (a Bacchante), Heidi Mount (as Aurora, Amphitrite), Erin Wasson (as Ajax, a Bacchante), Natasha Poly (as Melpomene), Daria Werbowy (as Artemis, Penthesilea), and Iris Strubegger (as Athena).

In Karl’s own words, he (jokingly) claimed to have created “the visual version of Homer. I did with my camera what he did with his pen, although we understand that he probably didn’t use a pen.” View more from the 2011 Pirelli Calendar after the jump.

Twilight Kristen Stewart in a white bikini on romantic sea frolic with Robert Pattinson

She's know for being dark and brooding, but Kristen Stewart looked white hot in a tiny bikini while taking a beach break with Robert Pattinson.
Newly-released pictures of the couple show them playfully stripped down and swimming together in the ocean in Brazil.
Kristen, 20, looked toned in her bandeau two-piece as she emerged from the water with her wet hair slicked back.


Robert, 24, seemed in very high spirits as the pair cavorted together.
He took a running jump into the water wearing only his underwear.
Clad in a pair of black Calvin Klein boxers, the Twilight star was taking time out from filming Breaking Dawn, the latest instalment in the vampire saga.
As Robert leapt yelling over Kristen's head, she ducked low in the water and grimaced at the oncoming splash from her boyfriend.
Witnesses also spotted Kristen jumping on Robert's back for a piggyback ride.
The pair were also seen filming steamy kissing scenes on the streets of Rio De Janeiro last month.
Twilight: Breaking Dawn is set for release on Nov 18th, 2011.
In the meantime Kristen fans can see her current film, Welcome To The Riley's, in which she plays an under-age stripper.

Orange Chocolate Mousse

Ingredients

1 slab 70% Lindt chocolate
1 tsp grated orange zest
2 Tbs caster sugar

3 eggs, separated

½ cup(125ml) cream
2 Tbs orange liqueur (Grand Manier)

Break chocolate in pieces and melt in a bowl over boiling water. Combine the orange zest, egg yolks and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat until light and creamy.
 Add the melted chocolate to the egg mixture and fold in with a spatula until it is properly mixed. In two separate bowls, beat the egg whites until stiff and also the cream until it forms soft peaks. Fold the cream into the chocolate mixture, take care not to over mix. Now do the same with the egg whites. If you are using liqueur, this is the time to also fold it into the mousse. Spoon the mousse into the hollow oranges and chill overnight or for at least 2 hours. Serve with chocolate shavings and a sprig of mint.
