Tennis star Wozniacki doffs her top

Caroline Wozniacki has impressed a lot of people during the Australian Open. Last night she came from behind to get by Francesca Schiavone. Francesca Schiavone hits the ball hard and plays a bit different than most other players on tour. Some call Francesca Schiavone a man but she sure can play.

However, Wozniacki - playing her I won't be beat myself style - defeated her - and looked super cute doing it.
She looks even better in these bikini shots - especially when doffs her top.

The Oscar Nominations : Year's Biggest Awards

The Academy Award (informally known as the Oscar) is an accolade by the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) to recognize excellence of professionals in the film industry, including directors, actors, and writers. The formal ceremony at which the awards are presented is one of the most prominent award ceremonies in the world and is televised live in more than 200 countries annually. It is also the oldest award ceremony in the media; its equivalents, the Grammy Awards (for music), Emmy Awards (for television), and Tony Awards (for theatre) are modeled after the Academy.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences itself was conceived by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio boss Louis B. Mayer.All in all, we're pretty happy about this year's crop of Academy Award nominees. While we we're still scratching our heads as to why Andrew Garfield didn't at least get a nomination for "The Social Network," there were enough other exciting—albeit expected—announcements to keep us satisfied.

As last year’s Best Supporting Actress winner for Precious, Mo’Nique announced this year’s Best Actress contenders from Beverly Hills, some were surprised to hear Michelle Williams’ name for Blue Valentine. As for the male talent, there were hoots and hollers in the room when she revealed Javier Bardem’s somewhat unexpected nomination for Biutiful, which is also a nominee in the Foreign Feature Film category. The supporting categories were more predictable and include this year’s youngest nominee, True Grit’s 14-year-old breakout star Hailee Steinfeld.

But for every pleasantly surprised nominee, there are others this morning who were likely disappointed. While one middle-schooler’s dream is coming true, The Kids Are All Right’s Julianne Moore was left out of the running while her co-stars, Annette Bening and Mark Ruffalo will be competing for awards. Some believe Ben Affleck’s The Town—for which Jeremy Renner (who was a Best Actor nominee for Hurt Locker last year) is up for Actor in a Supporting Role—was unfairly left out of the Best Picture and Directing categories. Also missing from the latter list was the man behind the summer blockbuster Inception, Christopher Nolan. The film is, however, up for Best Picture.

But perhaps the most shocking was the fact that Davis Guggenheim's Waiting for Superman, a documentary about the failure of America's public schools, was nowhere to be seen in the list of nominees.

Oprah's Half Sister Secret Revealed !!!

Oprah’s not saying anything except to categorize it as a family secret that will be a real bombshell.She told viewers a family secret "shook her to her core" when she first learned of it months ago. She also teased brief footage of a reunion, with someone seen (only from behind) stepping from the shadows onto the stage for an embrace.But who is it? Someone Oprah never expected to see again? Someone Oprah never knew existed? A child? A sibling? A doppelganger twin sister?!?

Oprah called the news a "miracle.Oprah Winfrey’s announcement that she has a long-lost half-sister naturally got me thinking about other TV characters who have long-lost siblings. There are a lot of them. The ones who immediately came to mind were the Fonz, Hank Hill, and above all Homer Simpson, whose brother led a charmed life “until he found out he was a Simpson” (and until he was dumb enough to let Homer design a car).Oprah was nine-years-old when her mother, Vernita Lee, became pregnant with Patricia, who was then given up for adoption. Oprah was living with her father in Tennessee and did not know about her extended family until last October.Oprah said ''Patricia is my half-sister who I never knew existed.''

At the time Patricia was born, Winfrey was nine and was living with her father in Nashville.Patricia, who is now a grandmother, spoke of the difficulties of growing up without anyone ''who is a part of you.'' But researching with the help of her son, Andre, in 2007 they eventually pieced together that Oprah Winfrey was a relative and kept the revelation a secret because Patricia did want bad media attention and ''did not want her [Oprah] hurt,''

Patricia said.That secret? A half-sister named Patricia who was given by for adoption by Oprah's mother in 1963. In the following clips, Winfrey tells her audience about Patricia and then sits down with her relative, about whom Oprah says:"What is so extraordinary is they have known this secret since 2007... She never once thought to go to the press. She never once thought to sell this story.

"During the show, Winfrey revealed that she learned she had a sister last October, saying the discovery "left me speechless."She was 9-years-old and living with her father in Tennessee when her mother, Vernita Lee, became pregnant with a daughter, Patricia, who was given up for adoption. Born in 1963 in Milwaukee, Patricia would later live in a series of foster homes until the age of 7. She was then adopted, but said her childhood was "difficult.

"Tracing her roots took years of perseverance but Patricia finally discovered her mother – and her half-sister."I received this big old package of information in the mail," Patricia said during Monday's interview. "And it has all of my birth information in it. I was like, 'Oh my god. I have a family.' "

Oprah Winfrey's Secret: A Half-Sister

Skating babe Phaneuf grabs national title

Last February, Canadian skating hottie Joannie Rochette captivated the world with the tragic story of losing her mother and then having to compete in the Olympics - as well as her skill and overall hotness. However, 2010 Vancouver and Whistler bronze medalist is not the only Canadian figure skating babe.

In 2004, Cynthia Phaneuf won a national title. She was expected to be a favourite to win more, but then there was Joannie Rochette. Rochette reeled off six straight titles with Phaneuf finished second three times and third once.

This past weekend, with Rochette concentrating on the pro ranks, claimed her second title at the BMO Skate Canada Nationals. When Phaneuf won her first title she was just a pretty teen. Now she has become a full-fledged hottie. Congrats!

Oh, to answer the obvious question, Phaneuf says she is not related to NHL star Dion Phaneuf of the lowly Toronto Maple Leafs.

Former Uconn hoops hottie Taurasi tests positive

While we think Diana Taurasi looks pretty great out of her Phoenix Mercury or Team USA basketball jersey, we know the former UConn standout loves to be in the gym. However, this hoops hottie (who posed nude for ESPN's Body Issue, above) might be forced to take a breather from the sport she loves.

Reportedly she has failed a drug test. The reports are that both samples tested positive for the banned stimulant modafinil. Taurasi has been dismissed from her Turkish club.

As reported by ESPN.com`s Mechelle Voepel, the positive tests could affect Taurasi`s future as a member of Team USA. She was expected to lead the U.S. squad in 2012 in London.
The WNBA has been quiet about the tests. We wonder if Taurasi bring her toned athletic bod back to the states to play this coming summer. Or maybe this hardwood hottie will have to stay home for a bit.
