Filed under: green and famous — michael @ 11:54 am

First Orlando Bloom’s natural smell came into question. Then, it was Matthew McConaughey enjoying several days in between showers. Now, Julia Roberts has admitted she doesn’t touch deodorant saying it’s “just not my thing.”

The actress was on Oprah’s Earth Day special promoting her friend’s new book “Gorgeously Green” (by author Sophie Uliano) and chatting about the small changes one can make at home to create a healthier environment.

Sophie brought out a bunch of deodorant brands and talked about the dangers of aluminum within the antiperspirant products. Roberts then told Oprah that she never wear deodorant — but will often freshen up throughout the day — whatever that means.

Check out the video below — perhaps Woody Harrelson should get her one of those crystal deodorizers.

Matthew McConaughey Joins Orlando Bloom In Showerless Water Conservation

Filed under: green and famous, healthy living — michael @ 10:08 am

A few weeks back, we told you about Orlando Bloom’s habit of wearing the same clothes sans washing for extended periods of time. This, of course, much to the dismay of girlfriend Miranda Kerr who has reportedly implored the actor to change his ’smelly’ ways.

Anyways, according to several sources, it appears that Matthew McConaughey is the water-conservation type as well. The topic came up after McConaughey revealed to a friend why he fell in love with girlfriend Camila Alves. “He said he finally met a girl who can go without a shower for a week - someone he can go mountain climbing and hiking with,” Pamela DePalma, president of DePalma Enterprises, which represents Camila’s new venture MUXO handbags.

According to Cele|bitchy, “McConaughey is known for going au natural and has not worn deodorant in 20 years. He told Playboy magazine that he refused to put on a rock crystal deodorant that his costar Kate Hudson tried to get him to wear while they were filming Fool’s Gold.”

The new trend in Hollywood? Ladies, could you stand a date with these guys regardless off their eco-friendly water ways?

Hudson and McConaughey Recount Good Times With Killer Jellyfish

Filed under: animals, film-tv, movies — michael @ 1:14 pm

As we mentioned last year, during the filming of Fool’s Gold starring Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey, things got a little sticky after the waters the two were in became infested with killer jellyfish. This ultimately delayed filming and caused producers to shift locations various times to avoid any fatal mishaps. The little killers in question are called irukandji and are no bigger than the size of a fingernail. As if that alone didn’t make them hard enough to spot, they’re also translucent.

Scientists believe that due to climate change, the deadly jellyfish are migrating from their normal waters up north to warming areas down south near popular beach spots. Obviously, this is not something tourist officials want spread about. McConaughey and Hudson, however, are all about it. From the article,

McConaughey tells Wenn, “We couldn’t be in the water for two weeks because this wild jellyfish came through and ran everyone out of the water. It was an iricongi jellyfish, about the size of your pinky nail. We kept moving our locations, running from the iricongi”. Hudson adds, “They are these tiny, quarter-inch jellyfish that are totally translucent and you can’t even see them - but they’re deadly. The Australians say it’s not the sting that kills you, it’s the pain. They are these deadly jellyfish which literally can put you in the hospital for three days on a morphine drip”.

Lovely.
