    • Do you think FHM dropped Kate Middleton from their list out of respect? (WireImage)Stop the presses, folks! Kate Middleton is no longer one of the sexiest women alive!

      For those of you unfamiliar with the British men's magazine FHM, you can now lament an image of this glossy rag with its top 100 sexiest women 2013 list culled from a poll by its readers. Because of course, the world is in seriously short supply of "sexiest women" lists.

      It appears Middleton's disappearance from the FHM ranking, despite being numbered 33 last year, is being reported as either an insult or a sign of respect due to her soon-to-be motherly status.

      "She’s married to the future King of England, she’s the granddaughter-in-law of the reigning queen, and she’s got a baby on the way—maybe placing her alongside girls in monokinis and wet T-shirts isn’t the nation’s first priority," reports StyleCaster.com.

      Huffington Post has even taken the liberty to tell the public why she is -- in fact -- still sexy -- damn it. Among other things,

    • If you want red lips courtesy of RiRi's MAC collaboration, you'll have to wait until June. (WireImage)Rihanna haters to the left… of the line. For her sold-out MAC lipstick. Whoops! Too late.

      The singer may take a great deal of heat for her personal choices, but it’s hard to dispute her star power. Particularly when RiRi Woo, a special edition lipstick she created with the help of the cosmetics giant flew off the shelves within three hours of its debut.

      '#SOLDOUT!!!!!!!!!! First shipment sell awf!!! Next shipment isn't til June!!! Mac girls gone wild!!!… [sic]' she tweeted excitedly on Thursday.

      RiRi Woo was poised to do well anyway. The deep red hue is a variation of Ruby Woo, one of MAC’s most popular lipstick colours of all time (it even has its own Tumblr).

      When Rihanna announced the launch of the RiRi Hearts MAC line last February, she admitted she was having a tough time improving on a red lipstick that already “worked on every skin tone.”

    • A new study suggests teen girls who play team sports are less likely to exhibit violent behaviour. (Thinkstock)The belief that teens require an outlet for their aggression and frustration lest they become destructive to themselves and others is a hallmark of modern parenting books.

      And now, a new study presented at the Pediatric Academic Societies annual meeting adds fuel to this sentiment. It suggests that teens girls who participate in team sports have an eight per cent lower chance of exhibiting violent behaviour, such as fighting and carrying a weapon.

      Curiously, boys in team sports were no more or less likely to perpetrate violence.

      "Athletic participation may prevent involvement in violence-related activities among girls but not among boys because aggression and violence might be more accepted in boys' high school sports," says lead author and pediatrician Tamera Coyne-Beasley of the University of North Carolina.
