11 Most Successful Celebrity Girls of 2011

The year 2011 was full of wonderful moments. A lot of good and bad things have happened in the world during this year, but as always we are not going to concentrate on the bad things. I have decided to remember only the good things and make the list of those celebrity girls, for whom (to my mind) this year was the most successful and unforgettable. Let’s celebrate those inspiring rich girls, who set high standards, never stop surprising us and manage to achieve great results.

So, who were the most outstanding celebrity girls of 2011? It was really hard to choose only 11 celebrity girls, because there are so much more high achievers, but rules are rules. I have selected 11 girls based on one of the following criteria: outstanding achievements, buzz, life changing experience and inspiration.

Some of the girls in this list will match all the criteria, some may only match one, but nonetheless they all have earned the right to be on the list.

1 – Kate Middleton now Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge

The Royal Wedding was definitely the most beautiful and romantic event of the year and Catherine was the ultimate star! I think that Kate Middleton is the most successful girls of 2011, because she managed to marry the prince! Sometimes all it takes is to marry the right guy, after that your life is a complete fairy tale.

2 – Adele

Adele experienced breathtaking rise to fame in 2011. Her single “Someone Like You” became a number one hit around the world and the album “21″ topped the charts in 18 countries including the United States. Adele’s “21″ was also last year’s biggest selling digital album.

There are a lot of things that I like about Adele: her voice, her songs and the fact that she doesn’t look like most of the stars. She is unique in every possible way and I hope she will continue make us happy or sad with her new songs. My personal favorite Adele’s song is “Rolling in the Deep” and I first heard and loved it in the “Gossip Girl” – Bar Mitzvah episode. This song suited perfectly Chuck and Blair’s romance!

3 – Victoria Beckham

It was a very successful year for Victoria Beckham both family and career wise. She welcomed her beautiful baby daughter Harper Seven into the family and won the “Designer Brand of the Year” at the “2011 British Fashion Awards”, beating Stella McCartney, Tom Ford and Burberry. I was writing about Victoria Beckham earlier this year, as she is a very inspiring rich girl.

4 – Rihanna

In 2011 Rihanna achieved a lot and this year was really amazing for her. She received Grammy Award (Dance Recording), Billboard Award (Female Artist of the Year), Brit (International Female Artist of the Year) Award, American Music Award (Favorite R&B Album), BET award (Best Female R&B Artist) in just one year! Her album “Loud” sold over 6,000,000 copies internationally, she sold more than 47 million digital tracks in 2011, which puts her ahead of Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Britney Spears and Beyonce, her “Loud” tour was the 7th top grossing world tour in 2011 and the list of Rihanna’s achievements this year can go on and on. I just listed the most inspiring ones. And don’t forget that Rihanna is only 23 years old!

5 – Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian is famous for being famous and as far as I am concerned she is good at it. She spent over 10 million dollars on a wedding, ordered three amazing wedding dresses from Vera Wang only to file for divorce in just 72 days of marriage. Well, she made headlines this year and people were actually interested in all her wedding preparations, the dream wedding and the divorce drama. According to Google Zeitgeist 2011, Kim Kardashian wedding was most popular search in weddings category within the United States. Even the Royal wedding was left behind, on the 2nd place. I think that only Kim Kardashian could pull this off and although she is not a great role model she deserves a place in our top for constantly finding new ways to be in a spot light.

6 – Natalie Portman

I bet that 2011 will be the year which Natalie Portman will look back to and say: “This year was the most amazing of all!” I hope that she will have a lot more successful years in the future, but 2011 was really the year to remember. Natalie Portman won the Academy Award, the Golden Globe Award, the Screen Actors Guild Award, Independent Spirit Awards, and the BAFTA Award for her lead performance as Nina Sayers in “Black Swan”. But 2011 was also unforgettable, because Natalie gave birth to her first child, a son named Aleph Portman-Millepied.

7 – Charlene Wittstock, now Charlene, Princess of Monaco

A girl from South Africa marrying into one of Europe’s oldest royal families, isn’t it a true fairy tale? And even though the wedding was clouded by suggestions that Charlene almost became a runaway bride after she found out about Prince Albert’s private life, the event turned out to be grand and beautiful. Maybe not as hugely discussed and viewed as the Royal Wedding of Catherine and William, but still breathtaking. And I actually loved Charlene’s wedding dress better.

8 – Pippa Middleton

One girl which woke up famous this year was Pippa Middleton. After she rocked that white dress by Sarah Burton at her sister’s Royal Wedding, she skyrocketed to fame. Guys love her, girls want to copy her body parts and the way she dresses and Pippa is just enjoying her invitations to all the glamorous parties and probably is writing a book. Yes, Pippa Middleton is said to be close to signing a book deal on how to be the perfect party hostess. Well, it is definitely good to have a famous sister.

9 – Beyoncé

She is a great singer and beautiful woman, she is inspiration for all of us. This year all the fans were happy to hear the good news, that the power couple Beyonce and Jay-Z is expecting their first child. Her pregnancy announcement had broken the “most tweets per second recorded for a single event” Twitter record, receiving 8,868 tweets per second.

But somehow these amazing news were spoiled by the allegations that Beyonce is not actually pregnant and is wearing a special pillow to look pregnant, that a surrogate is doing the actual job. I still don’t know whether it is true or not. I hope she is pregnant for real, because I can see no reason why would she fake her pregnancy or turn to surrogate at this young age. Anyway, Beyonce is a star and she can do whatever she wants. I like what she said in one of her videos: “I don’t have to prove anything to anyone, I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world.”

10 – Jennifer Aniston

Everyone wants to believe in true relationships and happy mutual love. This year we had a chance to feel happy for Jennifer as it seems that she has finally found her Mr. Right! Jennifer Aniston radiated happiness all year, thank you Justin Theroux Her new haircut this year also made people talk. According to Google Zeitgeist 2011 Jennifer Aniston haircut was number 2 most popular search in haircuts category, just a little bit behind Justin Bieber’s haircut and way ahead of Emma Watson, Selena Gomez and Diana Agron haircuts.

Also, I really loved her this year in “Horrible Bosses”.

11 – Jennifer Hudson

Jennifer Hudson lost 80 lbs and turned into a completely different person. This year she was shining on different events, in amazing tight outfits and said that she now looks and feels 10 years younger. I have added Jennifer to the list of 11 most successful and inspiring rich girls of 2011 because she is not only talented singer and Academy Award winner and a mother of a gorgeous kid, but she also managed to turn her life around and become more healthy and confident. If she could do it, we all can do it! Let’s be healthier and happier in 2012!

So, here is the list of 11 rich girls who, to my mind, were having a blast in 2011. Of course some of you may disagree with this list and I would really want to hear that Please share your opinion in the comments below.

The reason I wanted to create this list in the first place, is to inspire you to make the year 2012 to remember! Set yourself high standards, targets and goals this year! You can do anything! Dream big and act on it!

Let the 2012 be the most successful of all years! And who knows, maybe at the beginning of 2013 there will be your name on my list!

Yours,

Rich Girl

Top 10 Must-See Movies for Rich Girls

Sarah Danielson submitted a lot of interesting and useful articles to Rich Girls Club lately. Today I am glad to share with you the list of Top 10 Must-See movies, which Sarah carefully selected for us. I would love to know if you have already seen some of these movies and what did you think of them? Maybe there is your most favorite movie mentioned in this list? Maybe you can suggest us other interesting movies, which are not in this list? Please leave your thoughts and suggestions in the comments below. Kisses, Rich Girl.

Even rich girls sometimes spend a night at home, curled up in front of their flat screen in their own home theater. And for those nights when hitting the VIP room at the club or schmoozing with society elites sounds like too much to handle, a little at-home entertainment is in order. So pull out the caviar and Cristal and sink into the cushions of your designer couch; here are few movies that every rich girl will love.

Troop Beverly Hills (1989). What could be more fun than selling cookies door-to-door in Beverly Hills (if only it weren’t for the annoying red-feathers)? These girls are not your typical scouts; their problems include rich parents that forget your birthday (they planned a trip…without you) and dads who run off with the hired help. And their badges are for shopping and gem appraisal. But they have each other’s backs, and that’s what matters when you’re stuck in the woods with couture backpacks and no real knowledge of the wilderness.

Clueless (1995).The movie that spawned countless truisms like “whatever” and “as if” still has the power to entertain as rich girl Cher cluelessly stumbles through her sunny SoCal life with a giant wardrobe and a heart to match.

The Breakfast Club (1985). Nobody makes slumming it in detention look quite as good as Molly Ringwald (sushi for lunch? really?). Every rich girl in the room will give a little “Aww!” when she hands one of her diamond earrings to bad boy, rebel-without-a-cause Judd Nelson, who basically vows to help her grab the attention of her wealthy and neglectful parents.

Wall Street (1987). He may not have said it first, but Gordon Gekko certainly said it best: greed is good. Who cares if using insider information to earn a buck is illegal? The ends justify the means in this tale of ‘80s excess and cutthroat corporate competition. It’s all good (right up until Gekko goes to jail).

Heathers (1988). This movie is not so much about rich girls as the girls who rule the school, but with teenage suicide (don’t do it!) becoming the latest trend, it’s no surprise that the backstabbing between the three Heathers (and one Veronica) that rule the roost would reach epic proportions when a handsome stranger appears to stir the pot.

Jawbreaker (1999). There’s no shortage of movies about upper-crust girls behaving badly, but this one goes from bad to worse when the murder of a classmate (by Jawbreaker candy) puts a couple of girls in the hot-seat and lands one mousy witness in the money. For her silence, she gets a rich-girl makeover, complete with attitude.

Trading Places (1983). What happens when two old men with too much money start making bets about the power of social position? Hilarity ensues, in the form of one well-bred, high-powered stock-broker (Dan Aykroyd) being tricked into switching places with a wheedling street thug (Eddie Murphy). Luckily, they work together to get rich and put the gambling grandpas out of business.

Grey Gardens (2009). Let this serve as a warning: a good family name can go a long way, but once the money starts to run out, it’s all too easy to end up living in a run-down mansion with your crazy mother. And this movie imparts another lesson, as well; avoid head scarves at all costs!

Jerry Maguire (1996). Does it get any better than Tom Cruise shouting “Show me the money!” at the top of his lungs to secure the devotion of his one remaining client as he quits his high-paying job to strike out on his own? Of course, his tale of hardship isn’t quite as enthralling as the lengths he goes to where love is concerned. You had us at hello, Jerry.

Cinderella (1950). The penultimate movie for rich girls showcases a poor girl who strikes it rich not through hard work, but because she catches the attention of handsome prince. Of course, her winning attitude doesn’t hurt, but we all know it’s the magic of her fairy godmother (early personal stylist) and the glass slippers that really seal the deal. Looking for an updated version of this movie? Try Pretty Woman or one of about a dozen remakes (both animated and live).

The Magic of Thinking Big

As you probably already noticed I am very interested in everything that can help people become rich and successful, because I believe that success-achievement- is the goal of life! At least it should be that way! Also, I want to get and experience the best this life can deliver and I want inspire others to live to the fullest.

A few weeks ago I was very depressed, I realized that I haven’t reached a lot of my goals, I felt like a loser and I thought that there is no way out! I even started to think that maybe I am not the kind of person who can make all her dreams come true and be very successful. Maybe I am just not that good and I should be satisfied with what I already have and shouldn’t wish for anything better.

 To my luck I shared my feelings with a friend and he recommended me a book, which I ordered on Amazon.com straight away. Few days ago I got it and I must say that it is really what I was looking for! I only started to read it, but it already lifted my spirits and made me believe in myself! I already feel very motivated to make significant changes in my life, I feel confident that I can reach any goal I set and I am sure this book will help me. If you want to succeed in life, but don’t believe you can do it – I would strongly recommend David J. Shwartz’s book “The Magic of Thinking Big“! Read it and you will see how your life will change. You can order this book online or ask your friends, maybe they have it. This book is very popular, over 4 million copies sold.

If you have already read it, please tell me what you think? I would love to hear your opinion!

Good luck!

Yours,

Rich Girl

Really, want to be Rich?!

“Rich Life’s Tips” – the series of publications to help people understand what means “To Lead a Rich Life” and how to approach it. In “Rich Life’s Tips” you will be bale to find short, inspiring and motivating essays which would hopefully make your way to the riches easier and more fun. This section of the Rich Girl’s Club is made for those people who are only planning to become rich. Really Rich and Successful people are welcome to write their thoughts and share valuable tips and experience here!

I was surprised to find out that there are a lot of people on Earth who doesn’t want to become rich. I used to talk to some people who said, I don’t need it, I have different priorities in life and to have billions in any kind of currency on my account is not my goal. Well, it was really a surprise to me, cause since my early childhood I knew that I want to be rich, period!

So, before you start reading and partisipating in discussions here in Rich Girl’s Club, you need to understand and answer honestly to the following questions:

What does leading a Rich Life really means to you?!

What do you really want and need?! Do you need a huge 15 bedroom mansion in Beverly Hills or it will be enough to have 5 bedroom house somewhere in Florida?! Do you need people who will clean your house, opens the doors to your guests, cooks and buys food for you, takes care of your 20 cars, horses and dogs, cleans your huge pool and waters enormous garden full of exotic plants from all around the world?! Do you actually need all this stuff?

Before you take this long (or short, you never know) trip to riches, you need to know where are you heading to and where will be a milestone on this road when you will be able to say: “Yes! I made it! I am Rich and I am leading a Rich Life!”

I will leave you now to think about your goals and desires. It will be super cool if you could leave your comments or questions below, so we could discuss it.

Yours,

Rich Girl

Millionaire

Ok, so you want to become a Millionaire one day, right? At least  you like to dream about it. I think it is already a good start. If you at least know what you want, it is most likely that you will get it.

But do you know what does the word Millionaire mean? Who are they, those Millionaires? Do you know what you will have to do and face when you will become one? You need to know it before you started your jorney towards Big Huge Money!

Let’s have a look at the Wikipedia:

The word was first used (as millionnaire, double “n”) in French in 1719 by John Law, and is first recorded in English (millionaire, as a French term) in a letter of Lord Byron of 1816, then in print in Vivian Gray, a novel of 1826 by Benjamin Disraeli. An earlier English word “millionary” was used in 1786 by Thomas Jefferson while serving as Minister to France; he wrote: “The poorest labourer stood on equal ground with the wealthiest Millionary”. The first American printed use is thought to be in an obituary of New York tobacco manufacturer Pierre Lorillard II in 1843.

The increasing prevalence of people with more and more money has given rise to additional terms to further differentiate millionaires. A multimillionaire has a net worth of more than 2 million units of currency, a decamillionaire has a net worth of more than 10 million units of currency, and a hectomillionaire has a net worth of more than 100 million units of currency. The term centimillionaire has become synonymous with hectomillionaire in America, despite the centi- prefix meaning 1/100, not 100, in the metric system.

While statistics regarding financial assets and net worth are presented by household, the term is also often used to describe only the individual who has amassed the assets as millionaire. That is, even though the term statistically refers only to households, common usage is often in reference only to an individual.

A millionaire (originally and sometimes still millionnaire) is an individual whose net worth or wealth exceeds one million units of currency. It can also be a person who owns one million units of currency in a bank account or savings account. Depending on the currency, a certain level of prestige is associated with being a millionaire, which makes that amount of wealth a goal for some, and almost unattainable for others.

The increasing number of millionaires is partially due to prevailing economics: Increasingly, the term denotes more and more to the status of high wealth. American sociologist Leonard Beeghley classifies all households with net worth exceeding $1 million as “The Rich.” Currently, there are over 10 million residents around the globe classified as millionaires.

So, I guess you are now more aware of when people will start calling you a Millionaire, right? Now you need to make your first step toward your long and exciting journey to the Rich and Happy Life. What will be this first step? Let’s find out in the next post.

Yours,

Rich Girl
