Kali Hawk Interviews With Marta Walsh

I’m excited to share with you my interview with actress Kali Hawk.

Kali’s film role came in the Lion’s Gate thriller ‘Holla‘, which cast Kali alongside Michael Bergin as the sweet, unsuspecting camper Caprice. She would follow that project with a supporting role in the Spike Lee comedy ‘Lovers & Haters’, playing a scathing Hollywood diva opposite singer/superstar Mariah Carey. On television, she has also appeared on the hit CW sitcom ‘The Game’, executive produced by Kelsey Grammer. Kali’s recent film roles include: Trudy in ‘Couple’s Retreat’ next to Vince Vaughn, Malin Akerman, and Kristen Bell. And her role as Chantal in Judd Apatow’s film ‘Get Him To The Greek’ next to Russell Brand, Jonah Hill, and Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs.


Kali Hawk

In this interview Kali Hawk talk to Marta Walsh about when she has found her love for movies and acting. What was it like on the set with Mariah Carey in Spike Lee’s film: Lovers and Haters. Her dream acting role. What’s in her makeup bag and future plans.

Chatting with Kali was such a pleasure. She was sweet, funny and witty. I would like to thank you Kali for taking the time to talk to me!

Marta Walsh: Where is your hometown?
Kali Halk: I’m based in LA these days but I’m from New York originally. My family has been in New York for at least 150 years. My mom and I were born in Manhattan; my dad was born in the Bronx. My grandmother went to Hunter College when it was still an all girl’s school. I didn’t like LA at first naturally. But now that my professional and social network has been expanded I’m starting to love it more.

Rihanna at the Glamour Magazine 2009 Women of the Year Honors

Here some of the beautiful celebrities who attended the Glamour Magazine 2009 Women of the Year Honors last night.

Rihanna: wow look at the dress, and Rihanna’s hair color is looking blonder by the second. Personally I’m not a huge fan of Rihanna’s hairdo. Maybe her stylists try to position her as edgy and different, but I much prefer Rihanna in longer more feminine hair. But, this is just me.

Keep your face smooth and nourished with KenzoKI’s new Marshmallow Mask. A rich, mellow texture envelops the skin while ingredients cocoa butter, cameline oil and cotton butter go to work to hydrate and repair.

Beyonce And Jay-Z at the MTV European Music Awards Evening

Beyonce and Jay-Z were seen together in Berlin for the MTV European Music Awards 2009. I must say, Beyonce’s red lips are a wow factor!!

To get Beyonce’s glamorous red lips I LOVE Rouge d’Armani Lipstick #401 by Giorgio Armani Beauty. I’m addicted to it! It instantly brightens my face. Ultimate elegance in a tube!

Natalie Portman V Magazine Cover

Natalie Portman looks beyond beautiful on the cover of V Magazine this month. Natalie is probably one of the few people I know or could imagine having not much hair and still look stunning. And, I love her 80’s inspired punk hairdo and eye makeup. What a brilliant photo. Natalie was photographed by Mario Testino. Mario, I would like to meet you one day!:)

Blake Lively at the CHANEL Fine Jewelry “Fête d’Hiver” Benefit: Get The Look

Blake Lively was wearing CHANEL Beauté at the CHANEL Fine Jewelry “Fête d’Hiver” Benefit, Wednesday, November 4, 2009, New York, NY.

How to get Blake Lively’s makeup look by Makeup Artist Angela Levin:

Beauty Inspiration: “I was inspired by Blake’s stunning CHANEL diamond camelia brooch. I wanted her eyes to be dark and sexy, but the rest of her face to be light and fresh. She’s young and sexy and wears a smoky eye so well!”

Beauty Tips: “I used CHANEL Lift Lumiere Fluid Makeup in Beige all over her face, and set it with CHANEL Poudre Cristalline Translucent Powder. On her cheeks I dusted on CHANEL Blush Duo in Tweed Rose.

Carol Alt Interviews With Marta Walsh

I’m so excited to share with you my interview with one of the greatest supermodels of all time, Carol Alt. Any of you remember Carol featured on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 1982? I was too young to remember but I do know I really loved her at NBC’s 2008 The Celebrity Apprentice, with Donald Trump. On that show, Carol came across as not only a very beautiful woman but also very smart one. A type of woman I look up to.  Carol is all about raw food and has a great book about the raw food lifestyle called: the Raw 50 (with David Roth forwarded by Nicholas J. Gonzalez, M.D.) I’m also very excited to let you know about Carol’s skincare line called: RAW Essentials.

If you are into green and clean skincare products you might want to learn more about Carol’s skincare line. I personally love the RAW Essentials Raw-finish Rigorous Face Scrub, RAW Eeentials Raw-juvenate Eye Recoup, and RAW VITA Eye Serum (image below).

In this interview Carol Alt talks about how did it all begin for her in the modeling world and some of her most memorable moments of her career. What led her create RAW Essentials and what makes it different than the rest. Gives advice to anyone interested in a RAW lifestyle and RAW food diet. Reveals what’s in her makeup bag. Gives word of wisdom to aspiring supermodels. And future plans.

Marta Walsh: Your career as a supermodel and actress is undeniably impressive. How did it all begin? What were some of your most memorable moments of your career?
Carol Alt: Oddly, my career kicked off right after a breakup with a boyfriend at the time! I was spotted waiting tables during my freshman year at Hofstra University, where I was enrolled in Army ROTC. The modeling opportunity was the perfect excuse to get off of Long Island and embark on an adventure.
