From sleeping in bras to gaffer tape & boob facials, the weird and wonderful ways celebs are defying their cleav-age – The Sun
HEIDI Klum left fans stunned when she showed off her gravity-defying cleavage in an eye-popping outfit on American TV show Making the Cut this week.
The 46-year-old model divided viewers as she dared to bare in the mini dress, with some slamming her outfit choice, while others applauded her.
The dress offered barely-there coverage for her chest, with the off-the-shoulder sleeves even revealing her bra strap.
But she’s not the only star defying the years when it comes to their enviable figures, with some trying everything from gaffer tape to make-up and even boob facials for an added lift.
From Kim Kardashian and Carol Vorderman, to Lorraine Kelly and Liz Hurley, these celebs have some incredibly simple tricks behind their stunning red carpet looks.
Here we look at their secrets to staying perky…
Kim Kardashian, 39 – gaffer tape
According to Kim, tape is key for a boob lift – but the kind of tape is what will separate the just-lifted from the ‘super lifted’.
She wrote previously: "I've used everything from duct tape to packing tape to masking tape and I think that the best I found is gaffer's tape. It sticks the best!"
However, she's since released her own boob tape and even admitted that gaffer tape "would burn [her] and rip [her skin]" when she used it too much.
She now promises that her range of inclusive tit tape is "gentle" to remove.
Liz Hurley, 54 – Sleeping in bra & handbag tape
Liz says the secret to her incredible cleavage at 54 is sleeping in a bra – however uncomfortable it may be.
“Sometimes I can't be bothered to take my clothes off to go to bed anyway,” she told her friend of 20 years Trinny Woodall in her YouTube series the T-Zone previously.
And, like Kim, she also keeps gaffer tape in her handbag for emergencies.
Susannah Constantine, 57 – Double bras
What Not To Wear star Susannah says she has “the boobs of a teenager” because she wears two bras to keep her “huge t**s” in check.
In a series of short clips Susannah said: “Which of you ladies like me have huge t**s and can’t find a bra which fits properly?"
She continued: “Well I have a solution, albeit a rather unorthodox one. That is two bras.
"This is a great bra but it doesn’t quite give me enough support so I have another one by good old Triumph.”
She then showed herself putting on the second bra, over the first bra, laughing: “Boom, boom… firm t**s."
Carol Vorderman, 59 – Push-ups and delt raises
Carol works out at least three times a week and ensures she always includes chest exercises.
Previously sharing some of her favourite exercises on Twitter, she said she opts for shoulder press pyramids and frontal deltoid raises to strengthen and tone her upper body.
She added that she also "walks about 7 miles a day and 3 circuits a week".
Jennifer Lopez, 50 – daily dose of SPF
J Lo has always been a huge fan of SPF, and uses suncream and moisturisers daily to avoid wrinkles or sun spots.
"I am a firm believer in SPF. I try not to stay out in the sun too long,” she told InStyle previously.
Lorraine Kelly, 60 – Wears bra 24/7
Many women love nothing more than whipping their bra off at the end of the day, but Lorraine wears hers 24-7 to keep her boobs in perfect shape.
"I'm aghast as I keep my bra on all the time, I even sleep in it,” she told TV viewers last year.
"I didn't realise that was weird, I said that this morning and everyone was like 'WHAT?'"
As she cupped her chest, she added: "I don't feel right when I take it off, it feels weird. Maybe I'm odd, I'm feeling quite odd now."
Jodie Marsh, 41 – Egg whites and protein shakes
Jodie famously transformed her figure when she took up bodybuilding, but it had another unexpected effect – shrinking and firming up her boobs.
She put the change down to exercise and a strict diet of 15 egg whites a day, washed down with protein shakes.
“I had to strip my body fat from 25 per cent to ten. Judges want to see complete muscle definition," she told The Sun in 2011.
“To do that I went on an extreme diet. Bodybuilders prepare for a contest by going on protein-only diets and eating chicken and fish.
“But I’m a vegetarian so all I could have was egg whites and protein shakes. In the morning I’d have seven scrambled egg whites along with a cup of green tea."
She added: “My bust has actually gone from 32GG to 34C… I’ve lost all the fat off my bust so the implants I had years ago are now very prominent.”
Ashley Graham, 32 – Boob facial
While other stars were having their hair and make-up done before the 2018 Met Gala, Ashley had an oxygen facial on her boobs.
Instead of opting for a facial on her face, oxygen was used to smooth and tone her chest in what has been dubbed a 'breast facial' or 'breacial'.
Vicky Pattison, 32 – Perky Pears
When Vicky Pattison posed on the red carpet at the NTAs in a plunging strapless white gown, all eyes were on her – and her secret was some sticky boob pads.
Perky Pairs breast tape patches have quickly become a favourite with stars including Gemma Collins, Olivia Buckland and Chloe Simms too.
“I developed the product by finding a comfortable, lightweight and breathable material which we perfected into the current pear-shaped design that lifts and shapes the breast, delivering results similar to a surgical breast lift,” says founder Samantha Ryder
Khloe Kardashian, 35 – Boob contouring
Much like her sisters, Khloe is thought to be a fan of contouring her cleavage.
Her make-up artist Mario Dedivanovic previously said brushing highlighter in the middle gives them amazing definition.
"Use bronzer on the inner sides of the breasts," he told the Mail Online. "Then in the centre, you want to use a highlighter, and that’s going to really make the breasts appear more ample. So basically you want to go from that kind of light to dark, going from the centre to the sides [of the boobs]."
Kelly Brook, 40 – Comic Relief socks
Kelly needs very little help when it comes to rocking a plunging dress, but she previously joked her real secret was stuffing Comic Relief socks down her bra.
“My secret's out! Sports Relief socks are an essential item in my styling kit,” she joked as she posed for the charity campaign.
It was, however, a one off.
Susan Sarandon, 73 – Tiny tops
Susan is often seen wearing very tight tops to make her look that bit perkier in her 70s.
Opting for a size too small can give your boobs an added lift and that natural definition.
While Sarandon has never confirmed her secret, she's been pictured in super tight tops in the past – giving her an easy lift.
It seems DIY tricks work just as well for celebs as they do for the rest of us after all.
