You probably saw them strutting their stuff in high heels and teeny weeny bikinis during Friday night's Miss USA pageant. So how did these beauty contestants get those super-flat abs and tiny waists? Diets, squats and, for some, the occasional ziti binge!

On Tuesday, the official inquest into DANIEL SMITH's untimely death will take place in the Bahamas, with Chief Magistrate ROGER GOMEZ reportedly presiding over the inquiry.

ET has learned that summons have been sent out for individuals to appear at the inquest. The Bahamas have no jurisdiction over the U.S. legal system, so they're depending on the courtesy of those summoned to appear.
In just a few days, starting March 26, the official inquest into DANIEL SMITH's untimely death will take place with Chief Magistrate ROGER GOMEZ reportedly presiding over the inquiry.

As New York's Fashion Week kicks off today amid public turmoil over too-thin models, will designers just say no to waif-y catwalkers? BABY PHAT founder and former model KIMORA LEE SIMMONS tells ET she doesn't think so!

In a new interview about anorexia and the fashion industry, catwalk queen GISELE BÜNDCHEN credits her family with keeping her from developing an eating disorder.

"Grey's Anatomy" star SARA RAMIREZ has struggled with weight issues for almost as long as she can remember. But that didn't keep her from becoming a success in a business where packing on the pounds is considered career suicide. In the January issue of Glamour magazine, the Tony® Award-winning actress talks frankly about her yo-yo weight loss -- down to a size six -- and gains -- up to a size 14.
A talented singer, Ramirez attended the Juilliard School in New York City, where, surrounded by skinny actresses and dancers, body-image issues came to the fore.
