Sixteen-year-old Nyasha Matonhodze from Northampton, England is now the new face of Louis Vuitton’s autumn/winter 2011 campaign. Originally from Zimbabwe, she was discovered by Elite model agency in her school uniform in 2009, and later won the prestigious Elite Model Look UK competition. Shortly after, Louis Vuitton’s creative director Marc Jacobs was quick to book her in runways, walking next to Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss. With models striking fame at younger and younger ages these days, the ethical question is posed: how young is too young? Other successful young models who have made it big around the ages of 15 and 16 are Chanel Iman, Karlie Kloss, and Lindsay Wixson; all of whom have landed numerous campaigns and strutted on catwalks throughout the world. At only 16, Matonhodze certainly has a bright future ahead of her. We can’t wait to see where else her fledgling career will take her.

The newest hit to come out of Disney’s original movie-making machine is Lemonade Mouth, a sort of Breakfast Club-meets-Glee story about five high school kids who meet in detention and discover that 1. they all have musical talent, and 2. together actually make a pretty good band (and yes, there is a competition involved!). The movie makes its DVD debut tomorrow, May 24, but in the meantime, we caught up with star Bridgit Mendler on her musical inspiration, what embarrasses her, and of course, the biggest thing she ever got busted for.

- The 64th Annual Cannes Film Festival is just about coming to a close and along with it all those red carpet premieres and industry parties. Stars showed up at the French city armed with a week’s worth of oh-so-stunning couture looks. Here’s a wrap-up of our favorite trends from the festival:
Super slits
There’s nothing wrong with showing a little leg, especially if you’ve got legs like these girls. In an otherwise covered-up gown, a high slit adds an element of allure. Plus, it lets us get a better look at those killer heels!

We can’t wait for Selena Gomez’s newest album, When The Sun Goes Down, to drop on June 28th, especially after seeing the cover art that will go along with it. Selena is rocking the Old Hollywood glam look in a feathered vest and pearls. This glitzy retro style isn’t just for the pop stars! We found some key pieces to help you recreate a similarly vintage look. Check it out after the jump!

They’re not exactly the first people we’d expect to be gaga for Lady Gaga, but even they have to admit the extent of her power and influence: the people at Forbes gave the Mother Monster the number one spot on the just-released Celebrity 100 List. Yep, Miss Gaga, with her meat wardrobes and egg-shaped entrances, edged out the ever-prominent Oprah Winfrey for the top spot of the world’s most powerful celebs. It’s only the third time Oprah hasn’t been number one in the last seven years. So what pushed the always original singer to the top? Not just the $90 million dollars she made on tour, but also her 10 million Twitter followers and 32 million Facebook fans (aka ‘Little Monsters’). List first-timer Justin Bieber got spot number 3. Not bad, but we wouldn’t be surprised if Forbes experiences some backlash from the Beliebers. Other noteworthy newcomers? Katy Perry came in at 12, Usher at 32 (he has JB partially to thank), Real Housewives star Bethenny Frankel at 42, and country cutie Brad Paisley at 48.

Oh, Ashton Kutcher, why have we forsaken you? The brown-eyed, brown-haired looker has been off of our minds for a while (he is married, after all), but his new role on Two and a Half Men has got us wondering why we’ve been forgetting about this cutie! Remember when we were all Ashton-Kutcher obsessed? He played the dumb but adorable Michael Kelso on That 70’s Show and graced magazine cover after magazine cover with that goofy smile of his (not to mention rock hard abs). Then, we fell even harder for his hilarious antics when he started pranking other celebs on Punk’d. Since becoming a married man, Kutcher’s been out of the limelight, playing devoted hubbie and step dad (sigh). Thankfully, the hottie will be coming back into our lives on a weekly basis as Charlie Sheen’s replacement on the now infamous sitcom Two and a Half Men. Now that’s an improvement! Ashton said he felt like he won the lottery with the role, and that it’s the best job in show business. He tweeted this pic of him and his castmates yesterday, and it looks like they’re having a blast. Well, Ashton, we couldn’t be happier for you!

Photo: Getty Images We’ve seen many a ’90s trend make a comeback: acid-wash jeans, denim cut-offs, leggings…even overalls! Some trends, thankfully, have not returned on the style scene: scrunchies, banana clips and snap-on bracelets to name a few. Remember anklets? They’re something you probably haven’t worn since elementary school, hiding somewhere in the bottom of your jewelry box with your old Lip Smackers. But trends never die forever, and anklet bracelets are on their way back in—or at least Vanessa Hudgens thinks so. She doesn’t seem want to take off the dainty silver anklet she’s been wearing all over the place recently: with nude pumps at the recent Pirates of the Caribbean premiere, atop black suede heels while grabbing a smoothie in L.A., and even while hosting an event at Vegas nightclub Pure in March. And she’s not the only one, Shenae Grimes has been digging the trend too.

We’re not entirely convinced, though it is fun to accessorize those ankles that have been hidden for months under long pants and boots. Plus, as Vanessa showed, they go easily from day to night. Try glamming up your most basic pair of flip-flops with an anklet, or accessorizing your favorite nighttime pumps. What do you think? Is your ankle begging for a little bling-bling or are bracelets meant for our wrists?

Who: Milla Jovovich
What: The premiere of La Conquete at the Cannes Film Festival on May 18
Wear: Custom Prada dress
Le sigh. Yesterday, Milla Jovovich stunned us with her 35-carat diamond ring (we just can’t even…), and now we can’t stop staring at this glistening custom Prada number she wore at Cannes. Fashioned from the line’s graphically tailored fall 2011 collection, the bugle bead-embellished dress pulls together white and nude with a striking red trim and drop-waist belt in the most polished way possible. The deep plunging V-neckline and the polo collar together make for an interesting look that we find appealing for some reason. It’s probably all those beads! Jovovich topped off her look with matching red lipstick and her best Marilyn Monroe ‘do. What do you think of this look?

- Summer can be the best of times, but for our makeup, it can be the worst of times. The best way to avoid the melted-makeup look that’s all too common in the hot, humid heat is to ease up on the liquid foundations and powders. Always using a primer or moisturizer with at least a 15 SPF (ideally use 30 SPF for the summer months), let your face breathe and glow by only applying the lightest and sheerest makeSummer can be the best of times, but for our makeup, it can be the worst of times.

When applying eye makeup, whether it’s mascara or liner, be sure to go for waterproof formulas (you never know when you could be caught in a summer thunder storm or take a spontaneous dip in the pool!). And after your day is through, be sure to use oil-free wipes to remove all the sweat, dirt, and oil that’s accumulated on your face during the day. Take a look at some of these summer ready products we guarantee are worth buying:
