Celebrity advice. Should we be listening?

ONCE it was enough to see them on our screens or to admire them in the fashion pages of our favourite magazine.

And meeting that need — to do it like Gwyneth and Jessica do — are the celebrity lifestyle websites. We check out five, look at some sample advice and ask an expert to comment.
