Pippa Middleton’s Rear Is ‘Queen of the Booty’ in Plastic Surgery Circles

Pippa Middleton Hot Pictures
 Pippa Middleton, British commoner and sister to Catherine the Duchess of Cambridge, has become the new poster girl for the perfect rear-view that most women wanted to emulate.

The stunning appearance of maid-of-honour Pippa in her form-fitting Alexander McQueen gown during her sister Catherine’s wedding to Prince William last April has sparked a wave of surgery requests.

The younger Middleton’s back view looked so spectacular as she carried the nine-foot-long train of her older sister into the church created quite an impression among the plastic surgery crowd.

“The latest craze here in the U.S. and all over the world is to get the ‘Pippa Butt Lift,’” Miami-based celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Constantino Mendieta told FOX411’s Pop Tarts. “Once the breast implants reigned supreme, now it is the buttocks that are considered a woman’s best asset.”

Big buttocks were popularized in the past by Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian but the “booty calls” for the two stars have now been replaced by Middleton’s bottom.

“The buttocks has been an increasing and escalating interest over the last four to five years, but Pippa Middleton Hot Picturesthe iconic figure was Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian. Both have tremendous curves and large buttocks. While lots of people love the overall shape of those women, many felt those derrieres were just a bit too big,” Mendieta explained. “But ever since the royal wedding, Pippa Middleton has become the new queen of the booty! She opens the doors to those who did not know you could have a small, shapely and perky backside without the large size. Patients want to be more proportionate [with] buttocks that look natural and sexy and go with the rest of their body.”

Aside from the tremendous requests for Pippa-esque surgery, the young Middleton’s posterior has also become the subject of most websites, blogs and Facebook “Appreciation” pages.

The Daily Mail said photographer Alison Jackson is eyeing the creation of a Web series called “How To Create The Perfect Pippa Bottom.” On the other hand, Margot Campbell, the Pilates instructor of Middleton, has reportedly inked a book deal that will feature in detail the steps to shape up one’s rear just like her client.

However, it is not just the bottom half of Middleton that has the folks talking.

“I am definitely seeing a rise in Pippa-like features,” Constantino said. “People want to look sexy, elegant and petite.”

Dr. Richard W. Flemin of the Beverly Hills Institute confirmed the high demand for the features of the Royal Middleton siblings. Fleming spotlights the annual most-requested star-studded body parts in the survey called “Hollywood’s Hottest Looks”.

Pippa Middleton Hot Pictures“People ask for what they see, and they are seeing a lot of the Middleton girls. Kate especially has been in the news non-stop for the past two months and the public adores her. She has impacted everything in the beauty and fashion industry – including plastic surgery requests – because of her beautiful natural looks, her polished appearance, her stylish approach to dress,” he said. “The most requested features of both girls are their eyes and their nose. Both have beautiful, happy smiling eyes and very natural, perfectly proportional noses.  Pippa has a more curvaceous yet lean body so we are getting lots of requests from patients asking for liposuction and body contouring to get the ‘Pippa Body.’”

“The Middleton girls are fresh and natural looking, they are the epitome of youth, and they’re happy people – everything about their physical presence is happy and natural. They are ideally natural looking and their beauty is unpretentious,” Fleming added. “We should all be so lucky to have their happiness, physical features and everything that goes with it. They represent blooming youth at its shiny best and it is fabulous to just watch it slowly mature before our eyes.”

Movie Review: Attack The Block

Attack The Block, or Attack Da Block, Yo, Innit, if we want to go for the full street effect, is a riotous blast of sci-fi with a quintessential British sense of humour. That doesn't mean its laugh-out-loud every step of the way, no, its comedy lies in the premise as much as offering visual gags and one-liners.

Despite the cast mixing up American and British slang (they our British bobbies 'Feds', for example) and dealing with outer space beasties, this is a very British affair. Forget Richard Curtis' smug Oxbridge rom-coms with their calculated international appeal and picture-postcard London.

Director Joe Cornish offers a more convincing portrayal of modern city and its inhabitants. It isn't some Broken Britain rant or a Ken Loach movie with aliens. Although that would be interesting to see. Instead it's a half-believable portrayal of kids lives on a council estate in south London. Basically they smoke weed, mug strangers and talk shit. Then some aliens turn up.

Moses, Pest, Jerome and the gang are little thugs who in the opening scene mug a young nurse walking home at night after work. The opener is highly convincing and even scary. It's depressingly accurate. The movie's origin lies in Cornish's own mugging six years ago. Instead of 'taking out the scum' and making Harry Brown, he made a fun sci-fi comedy where 'inner city meets outer space'.

Cornish plays a very neat trick as his central characters, at first, are very unlikeable. He coaxes out sympathy and understanding as the story goes on. It might not be totally convincing, but at least he tries to offer an emotional arc. Once the alien lands and the kids, naturally, kick the shit out of it and parade it around their estate like a trophy, the shit hits the fan and they learn - very quickly - that their actions have consequences.

In some ways Attack The Block is reminiscent of last year's French zombie actioner The Horde. The high rise council block is the locale for a fantasy event where different types of people come together in an uneasy alliance. When all hell breaks loose the young lads and gals stand up to the terror and slowly but surely open up as human beings. Moses has a troubled background and looks older than he actually is. Pest gets most of the film's big laughs whether he's trying to chat up the nurse they've come to rely on after mugging, or admitting the whole scenario is scary but "sick" at the same time.

Cornish's debut is an assured film and lots of fun. The street lingo is spot on and often bemusing. It also looks fantastic - and most importantly - cinematic. One scene involving aliens, a smoke-filled corridor and the gang is genuinely creepy. It stops being a comedy for a moment and enters the horror world. Amazingly, Cornish isn't above killing off the odd kid, either. This is a comedy, sure, but it's not Monster Squad or Goonie larks.

Daniel Radcliffe & Robert Pattinson Top Money List Of British Stars Under 30

 Edward Cullen in the three Twilight films - is the second richest UK film star under 30, with a total fortune of $50,000,000.  Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe at only 21 comes in first , 21, tops the list with $70,000,000 including earnings of $10 million last year.  Robert Pattinson is reportedly set to net 2.5 per cent of the next two Twilights’ takings and that could help move him to number 1.

The Sunday Times list puts Keira Knightly in third with $48 million.   Keira Chaplin – grand-daughter of Charlie Chaplin – is fourth with $45 million, and Potter stars Rubert Grint and Emma Watson are tied for fifth with $37million.

Whatever the standings are now, the trajectory of Robert Pattinson’s earnings outstrip the others – his popularity as a leading man means that he is likely to earn more than all of his young British competition in the future.

Meanwhile, just for some perspective – J.K. Rowling’s wealth is estimated at over 1 billion dollars!
