"Private Eye: What&amp;#39;s the strangest thing you&amp;#39;ve tried for inner or outer beauty?\\nSarah Jessica Parker, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, Christina Applegate, and more weigh in on the lengths they go to look their best.\\nCelebrities' quests for rock-hard bodies and souls can take them from the sublime to the ridiculous. To uncover the strangest of these treatments, we went to a *Vanity Fair* party, the Tony Awards, the Fragrance Foundation Awards, and an *Allure* dinner for makeup artist Stephane Marais.Sigourney Weaver discovered the importance of following directions: \\\"I tried beer in my hair, but I didn't read that you have to rinse.\\\" Linda Evangelista used \\\"that shampoo you put in to kill the yellow in your hair. I left it in too long, and my hair ended up purple.\\\" Rosario Dawson once \\\"meditated into the New Year naked.\\\" Kate Beckinsale discovered that \\\"warm stones didn't do anything for me. They're supposed to make you enlightened.\\\" And the only revelation Vera Wang had after her mud wrap was: \\\"It was wet and muddy\u2014what was I smoking?\\\"\\n\\\"*Ohhh,* a colonic. It's so gross, and it was not at all fun.\\\"\\n\\\"I don't go in for weird. I can sniff that out a mile away.\\\"\\n\\\"I went on a women's group retreat. We were chanting in the ruins in Mexico. It was kind of creepy\u2014like *Poltergeist.*\\\"\\n\\\"I went to this guy in Texas who was called the Fat Burner. He measured all of your fat, videotaped you working out, and pointed out all of the fat parts all over your body. I don't think I've ever gotten over it.\\\"\\n\\\"What's wrong with me that I haven't been with a weird beauty guru on the top of a mountain? I hope I do in the next year.\\\"\\n\\\"I wore a men's bodysuit so that my shirt would stay tucked in, but instead I just got a wedgie.\\\"\\n\\\"I go to spas\u2014facials, seaweed wraps, lemon peels. And they all work.\\\"\\n\\\"I just tell [hairstylist] Serge Normant my fantasies, and he does them in 20 minutes.\\\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
