Think your monkey might be having an affair?


Find out if he is displaying any of the warning signals described by Raymond B. Green, a private investigator and former police officer, and Marcella Bakur, a psychology professor at Marymount Manhattan College. Here, are emotional signs that he is having an affair:

1. Your mate is more attentive to your needs than usual. This is due to the guilt feelings experienced by the cheater in the early stages of his or her affair. The attention will diminish as the affair continues.
2. Your mate begins buying you gifts alots of gifts. These are "guilt gifts" purchased because your partner feels guilty about betraying you and showering you with presents makes him or her feel better.
3. Your mate's behavior is causing a gut feeling in you that something isn't right. If this happens, pay attention to your instincts. Ignoring them means you want to blind yourself to the truth. You know your mate's habits, routines and attitudes better than anybody, so be suspicious when these things change.
4. Your mate frequently picks fights with you. Doing this gives him reason to get mad and storm out of the house and thus the opportunity to meet a lover. A cheater may also do this because of mixed emotions he is feeling about betraying you.
5. Your mate constantly talks about your relationship ending when you fight or argue. She says things like, "What would you do if our relationship ended?" or "If anything ever happened to us, I would always love you like a friend." In general, she seems very negative about your relationship. Your mate makes these statements because she has a lover to fall back on if your relationship ends. If your partner repeats these kinds of statements often, be suspicious.
6. Your mate becomes very moody. He or she seems very upbeat and excited when leaving you but acts somber and depressed when around you. If your mate is in a long-term affair, he/she will try to keep both relationships running smoothly. Any problems the cheater has in one relationship will spill over into the other relationship as well. This is inevitable.
7. Your mate never talks to you. You live together but don't interact. He has become cold and inconsiderate of your feelings.
8. Your mate's taste in music suddenly changes. For instance, she always listened to pop music but suddenly starts listening to country music. Your partner might be listening to and growing fond of this new type of music because her lover listens to it.
9. Your mate lacks self-esteem. This doesn't necessarily mean he will go out and have an affair, but an insecure individual often looks to others for guidance. If an insecure person's needs aren't being met, he might find the desired feelings of security and positive feedback in an affair with someone else.
10. Your mate continually criticizes another person. She is trying to make you think that type of individual would never be of interest to her, although there actually exists a secret attraction.
11. Your mate criticizes things about you that he or she once found attractive and appealing.
12. Your mate easily becomes offended at the comments, however harmless, that you make.

This can bring a women to a very low point, but we need to remember that he is replaceable! Beyonce said "You must not know about me, you must not know about me, I can have another you in a minute matter of fact he'll be here in a minute, so pack all ya bags we finished" Just to list some things that got me thur: Do a mud mask on yourself you are single now, gotta be divaliously glowing - Light scented candles and play empowering music !

PS. A little shopping helps!

Hungry???


Nicole Richie is seeking treatment for what her rep describes as an inability to put on weight.

"Nicole Richie has decided to undergo diagnostic treatment to determine why she's not been putting on any weight," her rep tells PEOPLE in a statement. "She is working with a team of doctors and specialists whose focus is nutrition. It is important to Nicole that she achieves this goal in a healthy way as this is not a treatment for an eating disorder."

Richie's thinness has been the subject of much debate – which she addressed in May when she told Vanity Fair magazine, "I know I'm too thin right now. I'm not happy with the way I look right now." She also said at the time that she was consulting with a nutritionist and a doctor, but blamed her weight loss in part on the breakup with her then-fiance, Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein.

"She's tired of everyone saying you don't eat, because she does," a source close to Richie tells PEOPLE. "She wants to gain weight. It wasn't anyone saying you have to go do this – it wasn't an intervention. It was her saying I'm tired of people saying this about me, I'm going to go get some tests. It was a personal decision."

Richie, 25, is starring in the fifth season of The Simple Life, but production is on hold until she recovers, according to a rep for the show's studio.

"Future Sex/ Love Sound"
(We don't need love sounds for future sex, but that's just me. I need a few candles, and a divalious nightie, oh and down forgot a really great pair of pumps)



When you first listen to the strains of “Future Sex/Love Sound,” the opening song of Justin Timberlake's new album, you're not really sure if you're listening to a Justin Timberlake song. Slinky electronic beats drive things as Justin sings in a lower register than we're used to. Things get even crazier on “Sexy Back,” the hit single and second song on the album. Justin's voice is not only lower but also electronically distorted. The f-word is even tossed around. Neither of these two songs sound like what non-Justin fans would expect from him and that's the point. Future Sex/Love Sounds is Justin Timberlake's breakthrough album, an album that makes listeners take notice. It is a fun album to listen to and makes us eager to hear what he does next.A lot of the credit for Future Sex/Love Sounds has to go to producer Timbaland. He produced the hit single “Cry Me A River” from Justin's debut, Justified, and is behind the boards on 10 of the 12 tracks on Future Sex/Love Sounds. In Timbaland, Justin has one of the most inventive and eclectic producers in music, one who will use any and every sound imaginable to make a good song. In Justin, Timbaland has finally found a male artist whose willingness to break boundaries and try new things ranks up there with the powerhouse female artists he's worked with in the past. The power duo (joined by producer Nate Hills) try out multiple genres of music while still keeping things pop enough to make them crossover friendly. The aforementioned electronic excursions of “Future Sex/Love Sound” and “Sexy Back,” offer us a Justin we haven't heard before. “Chop Me Up,” which features Academy Award-winning rap group Three 6 Mafia, gives us a taste of dirty south hip-hop. We get taken back to Minneapolis (complete with that signature Prince “sound”) on the smooth ballad “Until The End Of Time” and on the funky “Sexy Ladies.”Interludes that appear between songs help keep things from sounding too disjointed. The “Let Me Talk To You” interlude that appears between “Sexy Ladies” and “My Love” works so well that they kept it in the video for “My Love.” Other interludes sound like they could've been songs by themselves. I like the way Timbaland's drums combine with guitars and piano on the “I Think She Knows” interlude that is after “LoveStoned” and the harmonies on the “Set The Mood Prelude” make you wish it could've somehow been a song all on its own.There are two songs on the album that are not produced by Timbaland. These songs are polar opposites in terms of quality. “Damn Girl,” produced by and featuring will.i.am, is not one of the album's shining tracks. The beat isn't bad but of all the guest appearances on the album, will.i.am's feels the least necessary. “Another Song (All Over Again),” produced by Rick Rubin, is one of the best songs on the album. Rick Rubin has the uncanny ability to bring out the essence of artists and he works his magic on Timberlake. The backing music is the most understated on the whole album and Justin's voice is front and center. He just sings his heart out here without any special effects and the result is great. Future Sex/Love Sounds is an album that should result in Justin getting some more fans. Instead of taking the easy route of jumping onto the pop/rock bandwagon or making stuff that sounds like Justified 2.0, he tries new things. It's difficult for an artist to balance the desire to do something different with the necessity of appealing to his fans, but Justin Timberlake manages to do so on this album. If he can keep this up, he can have a nice, long career if he wants it.

Breaking Divalious News.......






Father Still Worried

by Madonna Adoption


Thu Oct 26, 9:48 AM ET
The father of the 13-month-old Malawian boy Madonna is trying to adopt said he is afraid criticism of her plans would persuade the pop star to drop her efforts.
"I am afraid Madonna may get angry and frustrated and decide to dump my son because of these people," said Yohane Banda, referring to criticism from human rights activists in Malawi that officials had bent the law to speed David Banda's adoption.
"These so-called human rights activists are harassing me every day, threatening me that I am not aware of what I am doing," Banda said Thursday. "I'm afraid David may be sent back and the orphanage may not even accept him back. So where will he end up? Here? He will certainly die."
The Human Rights Consultative Committee, a group of human rights groups in Malawi, has asked Judge Andrew Nyirenda to review the adoption process to make sure all the laws have been followed. A hearing is scheduled Friday.
Banda said activists tried to visit him Wednesday.
"I hid from them. I didn't want to see them. They want me to support their court case, a thing I cannot do for I know what I agreed with Madonna and her husband," said Banda.
Banda was reacting to Madonna's appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" on Wednesday, in which the 48-year-old singer said she had done nothing wrong, had not used her celebrity to influence Malawian officials and wanted to give David, who had been in an orphanage, a better life.
In an interview with The Associated Press on Sunday, Banda said authorities had not made it clear to him that he was giving up his son "for good" when he signed adoption papers earlier this month. But Thursday, he shifted the blame to human rights groups.
"I was telling these rights groups that I wasn't selling my son. I said I wouldn't ... sell my son for anything but I had agreed with Madonna before a judge so my comments were taken out of context and I hope Madonna is not angry," he said.
Banda said he was not angry with journalists, but added he was spending more time with reporters than tending "to my onions and tomatoes."
Justin Dzonzi, chairman of the human rights group, said the coalition of 67 groups would go ahead with its court petition Friday to protect the rights of any child up for adoption in Malawi.
"It's not like we are blocking the adoption but we want laws followed to the letter," he said.
Dzonzi said under current laws, David, who was taken to Madonna's home in London last week, was not entitled to inherit any of the wealth of the singer and her husband, director Guy Ritchie. He said the child also could suffer psychologically if there is a divorce by the celebrity couple.
"We want these issues clarified," Dzonzi said.
But Banda, a subsistence farmer, argued his son had no wealth to inherit in Malawi.
"That won't change anything for David," said Banda. "Please, let them leave my son alone."

Brooke Hogan's "Prom" Invite Revoked !!!!

Apparently, Brooke Hogan doesn't always know best.
The Hulk's offspring has been bounced from the cover of the upcoming annual edition of Prom magazine due to her scantily-clad appearance on the cover of another publication.
After Hogan posed for FHM's November issue wearing nothing but a skimpy bikini, the teen-focused mag elected to drop her from its cover, stating it felt her image was not appropriate for the Prom audience.
"We don't feel up to taking thousands of telephone calls from the upset mothers of our young promers," spokesman Aaron Bernick said in a statement.

The magazine said that Ashley Tisdale will step in for Hogan, but that the switch would push back its November deadline and delay publication until January 2007.
A rep for Hogan accused the magazine of trying to draw attention to the upcoming issue by creating controversy.
"Clearly, Prom is attempting to publicize their magazine by stirring up controversy over photos of Brooke that they took more than a year ago," Hogan's rep said in a statement to E! Online. "Looks like they are trying to up their circulation."
Though she won't be the cover girl, a feature on Hogan will still appear in the magazine's pages.
Meanwhile, Hogan, along with her family, will return to VH1 on Oct. 22 for the third season of Hogan Knows Best, which will feature the blond-and-tan clan's struggle to adapt to their new home in Miami.
The season will also focus on Hogan's career as an aspiring recording artist, and coincides with the release of her first album on Oct. 24.
With all that going for her, who needs Prom, anyway? (E Online)

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE INVITES PRESS TO THE LAUNCH OF HIS NEW CLOTHING LINE -- THEN REFUSES TO TALK TO THEM!
Justin Timberlake and best friend Trace Ayala invited reporters to the
launch of their new clothing line at Social Hollywood on October 17... then refused to speak to them! As the press anxiously waited, Justin and Trace arrived on the red carpet first, about 1/2 an hour before any other guests. Timberlake and Ayala stopped for a brief moment allowing their photograph to be taken and then bypassed the press, going into a side entrance. Immediately security was told to make sure the entrance was locked up and a curtain was closed over it. "It was ridiculous" says Star's Jessica Schimmel, who covered the event. The guy invites us here to give him free publicity for his clothing line and then he can't be bothered to talk to anyone, so cocky! And by the way, what does Trace Ayala have to be so cheeky about. Even he thinks he's too good to talk to us?" Neither Justin nor Trace said a word as the press screamed for a single comment. The press line was convinced Justin was going to come back out and talk about his new clothing line but he never did, leaving everyone really disappointed. (E Online)

Talk Yourself Up!

By Kerstin Sjoquist

Do you have a friend who never really listens to what you say, and when she does she’s always got an opinion about it – a negative one? Friends like this can be a real drain, and though they’re usually well-intentioned we never feel as good around them as we could. But what if that unsupportive “friend” is you? And what if the life you are sabotaging is your own?
Each of us has an inner monologue running through our minds. Often it's just a mental to-do list (Check out that new lip gloss; Don’t forget the hair appointment; Do I have time to go to the gym?). But more often than we realize what we’re really saying to ourselves is full of self-criticism, doubt, and negative thinking (I can't believe I did that -- I'm so stupid; No wonder no one wants to date me with all this extra flab; Why bother trying harder when I'm never going to get promoted?).
The problem with this kind of inner monologue is that it can destroy your self-esteem – a “must have” if you want a life that works. Negative self-talk can erode your confidence, affecting everything from your relationships, to your career, to how successful your diet is. A research study showed that the students who did the best in college were those who believed they would do well – regardless of their actual abilities. A key to your success – whether it’s climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro or walking gracefully in new shoes – is making sure that what you are saying to yourself is supportive. And the best way to do that is to turn that monologue into a dialogue.
Step 1: Notice what you’re thinking.
The problem with negative self-talk is that we usually don’t notice it consciously. Instead we’re aware of the ramifications – the lack of energy, the gloomy moods, the short fuse. Start paying attention to that running monologue. What are you saying to yourself as you dash into work late? When you’re running errands do you catch yourself re-living an argument with your boyfriend rather than noticing what a beautiful day it is?
Step 2: Ask, “Is this helping me get what I want out of life?”
Those inner thoughts are the motivators that help us reach our goals in life. You would never yell at a toddler learning to walk, “Why did you fall down? You should know better!” Of course, you’re no baby, but growth and change doesn’t stop just because you can stand on your own two feet. Make note of those thoughts that are getting in the way of your desires and dreams. What are you saying to yourself that is less than supportive?
Step 3: Start talking back!
As soon as you recognize a negative thought, counter it with something positive. If you’re mad at yourself because you haven’t exercised in four weeks, don’t berate yourself. Instead say, “Everyone makes mistakes; I’m getting back on the wagon starting now, and I will succeed!” Eliminate statements that include can’t, never, and always and instead motivate yourself with your achievements. Be your own cheerleader. Literally tell yourself what you do well and let these give you the energy you need to make the changes you want in your life.
Challenging negative self-talk and replacing it with supportive thoughts can undo the damage of years of negative thinking. Treat yourself as you would hope your best friend would treat you, and like a flower in need of a little water you will soon see your self-esteem blossom. And don’t be surprised when everyone else notices how fabulous you are as well.
