Russells New Lingerie Beau and Saudi Underwear Freedom

Once Noemie Lenoir and footballer Claude Makelele split, neither of them took a long time to move one. However, the hot topic of the day is Noemie's new beau, Russell Simmons. The two have been hitting the town with plenty of PDA.

And the entertainment world as well as the lingerie world has definitely taken notice. However... the Russell is definitely not private about his feelings for Noemie, on Twitter he calls her "his baby" and to the press:

"Any how my babie (sic) says says her agencies in France and England are getting calls from media "she's dating a rapper".


Besides their 22 year age difference both of them have lots in common including young children and the fashion industry.

Meanwhile, Saudi women have moved one step closer to women's rights. Using bras donated by Victoria Secret, 26 Saudi women completed training to learn how to fit, stock and sell underwear. The women and organizers are hoping the move will help lift the ban on women selling underwear in Saudi Arabia.

Sometimes we tend to take the small things for granted. Here are a few touching quotes from the project:

"It was a beautiful experience, The most shocking thing for me was the bra sizes. We didn't know how to get proper measurements before." - Faten Abdo, Coordinator

"...the industry was complaining that there's a lack of qualified (women) in the market who can run and manage lingerie stores. So we covered fitting and technical issues, we covered selling and handling customer complaints." - Reem Assad, Boycott Campaign

We were "shy at first to play-role and do fittings on each other, but we got over it." - Suzanne al-Hindi, graduate

"It was a small step, but perhaps from this little drop these will be bigger ripples." - Jiddah Kate Rudd, British consul-general
