Sometimes when models try to sing, the end result is rather bad (Naomi Campbell anyone?). But Calra Bruni isn’t just a pretty face – she’s an incredible singer/songwriter whose French debut album is amazing.

Soothing yet upbeat, it’s the perfect compliment to your morning latte or afternoon read. And I gaurantee this CD will continually charm you, never leaving your bored or irritated.

I didn’t want to read this because of all the Oprah hype currently going on (I hate books that have O-P-R-A-H on the cover for some reason.) Even though Of Mice and Men is one of my favourite books, I just couldn’t bring myself to pick this one up. However, my mum recently left it on my table and I couldn’t let a book just sit there. No, that would be naughty. And, like his other books, this one is keeping me glued. Maybe Oprah knows something?
