Kick off 2012 in style with ShoeDazzle and the newest member of the fast-growing ‘Celebrity Shoe Design Program for Charity,’ actress, model and mother of three – Denise Richards. Joining forces with ShoeDazzle designers, Richards has created a light pink and gold embellished peep-toe sling-back pump, with a gold metallic pin-heel in honor of her mom, who passed away from kidney cancer. The shoe will be available in ShoeDazzle showrooms on January 16th.

100% of the profits from sales of her shoe will be donated to the Kidney Cancer Association (KCA), a charitable organization which helps fund, promote and collaborate with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO), American Urological Association (AUA), and other institutions, on research projects.

In addition, one lucky fan will have lunch with Denise Richards. Four runners-up in this special contest will receive an iPod Shuffle. To be eligible to win the luncheon, contestants must upload a short video explaining why they want to win and must join the new KidneyCancer.me (http://kidneycancer.me) website. Contest details are available online at LunchWithDenise.com.

“Fashion has always been a passion of mine and I especially love shoes. What woman doesn’t love a feminine, yet sexy pump in her collection? Teaming up with ShoeDazzle to help a charity I admire and a cause that is particularly dear to me because of my mother provided an amazing opportunity to combine my passions,” said Richards. ”I decided to name the shoe after my baby Eloise because she has been such a blessing in my life.”

“It has been such a pleasure working with Denise as she helps to create awareness of kidney cancer and the need for a cure,” commented the Kidney Cancer Association vice president, Carrie Konosky. ”Despite being busy with her role on Spike TV’s hit series, ‘Blue Mountain State,’ while taking care of three children, Denise has always been incredibly generous about making time to help us.”

Prior to Denise’s shoe release, ShoeDazzle partnered with Perez Hilton, Carson Kressley, LaLa Anthony, Jenny McCarthy, Carmen Electra, singer Mel B and actresses Kristin Cavallari, Kristen Bell and Kristin Chenoweth for the ‘Celebrity Shoe Design Program for Charity.’

Former Hills star Kristen Cavallari, and fiancé Jay Cutler will not be walking down the aisle any time soon. The engagement was recently called off, the question being, by whom? Sources say that it was the Chicago Bears quarterback who ended the relationship.

The couple began dating last fall and were together for less than a year when he popped the question. 28 year old Cutler made sure to get approval from Cavallari’s parents, before proposing during a romantic getaway to Mexico in April. “I think we both knew from the moment we met that we wanted to marry each other,” Cavallari star, 24, openly stated back in May.

“It’s been a great situation.”Cavallari had already begun to plan for the wedding. Bridal registries were set up at Crate & Barrel and Williams-Sonoma, her gown for their spring wedding was picked out, their registry was posted, and they threw an engagement party last weekend.

Although this has been a upsetting time, Kristin seems to be moving forward and was recently seen enjoying herself with friends and treating herself to retail therapy in Beverly Hills. Kristin may have thought her dream wedding was about to come true, but she may have saved herself from a marriage nightmare.

Sources close to the couple reveal that the two would sometimes get into heated arguments. Kristin did not always agree with his actions and the ways he treated others.

Both Cavallari and Cutler have remained silent on the details of their split but Kristin is shooting down the rumors that claimed she called him names and accused him of faking his knee injury. In an effort to set the record straight, she tweeted “I never said ANYTHING about Jay’s knee injury. I’ve always backed him 100%. Stop trying to start s**t. I know he was seriously hurt.”
