PEOPLE’s Most Intriguing Newsmakers Revealed

For Sandra Bullock, 2010 was the year that changed everything: She became a mother to son Louis, ended her five-year marriage to Jesse James and reached new career heights with her emotional Oscar win for The Blind Side.

It’s only fitting, then, that the superstar, 46, scored the top spot as Woman of the Year in PEOPLE’s new Year-End issue. Of the actress’s life-altering 2010, says a source, “Bad things happen, but she celebrates the good ones. And Louis is a wonderful celebration of good things.”

Also making the cut as the year’s most intriguing figures:

• Bret Michaels (the Ultimate Survivor), who survived a near-fatal brain hemorrhage in April: “I don’t want my legacy to be a hemorrhage,” he tells PEOPLE. “I want it to be: I’m a fighter, I’m passionate, I’m hardworking and I love music.”

• Kim Kardashian (the Entrepreneur), who turned her reality TV stardom into a multi-million dollar empire.

• Kate Middleton and Prince William (the Royal Couple), who captured the world’s imaginations with news of their engagement and preparations for their upcoming April nuptials.

• Elin Nordegrin (the Class Act), who showed grace and poise following her split from husband Tiger Woods in the wake of his cheating scandal.

For the complete list of PEOPLE’s most intriguing newsmakers of 2010 – and a round-up of the year’s splashiest celebrity weddings, splits and babies – pick up this week’s issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday

Ever since she was a little girl, there were two things Nicole Richie wanted on the day she married: a show-stopper dress inspired by Grace Kelly’s iconic wedding gown, and a real live elephant for good luck.

Both her wishes came true as she married Good Charlotte rocker Joel Madden at her father Lionel Richie’s home on Dec. 11.

They tied the knot in front of their children – Harlow, 2, was the flower girl, while 15-month-old Sparrow was the ring-bearer – under a tent transformed to resemble a French garden.

“It was magical,” Richie, 29, tells PEOPLE. Adds Madden, 31: “It was the best night of my life.”

For her big day, Richie wore three stunning Marchesa dresses, including one featuring a ball-gown skirt crafted from more than 100 yards of hand-draped silk organza and tulle petals.

Lindsay Lohan Turns Down DWTS!

Dina is brutal… she cuts a part Michael for always talking to the media but I find her to be worse and I don’t think a lot of us would want to see her on Dancing with The Stars next season!

LiLo Turns Down DWTS!

We had such high hopes!

Although it was rumored that she would be a contestant next year, Lindsay Lohan turned down an offer from Dancing With the Stars.

Her momager, Dina, elaborated:

“We are huge fans of the show and think it’s incredible. We’ll watch it, but it is not going to happen.

Lindsay actually told the woman at Dancing With The Stars who made the offer that ‘you need to take my mom!’

Lindsay is a great dancer, but she’s taking a break right now. She has been through a lot. Our family loves the show because I’m a dancer, and I taught dance when Lindsay was growing up.

I dragged her from one dance studio to another, and she sat in front of the mirrors and watched, while I taught.

She just needs to come out (from Betty Ford) healthy and happy and will. After she has some time off, she has so many projects she is considering… and her true love is film.”

Ha. Looks like Dina is trying to seal the deal for herself!

Do U think Miz Lohan would be a good fit for DWTS?!

Your daily horoscope

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

No matter how strange some of the messages that your subconscious mind sends you they must not be ignored. A deeper part of you is trying to guide you in a more profitable direction. Will you listen? You’d be a fool not to.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

Reach out to employers and other influential people today but, if they make you promises, get them to put them in writing. What they agree to today may not be what they want to do tomorrow, so be canny.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

The more you expect of other people today the more disappointed you are likely to be, so don’t get your hopes up too high. Saying something and doing it are two entirely different things, so don’t count your chickens just yet.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

The planets warn if you act too fast today you are likely to do more harm than good. No matter how bad things may seem there is still time to think before you take action, so stop worrying and use your brain.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

If you suspect that someone is not being completely truthful today don’t make a big fuss about it: sooner or later they will let you know what’s going on. Be honest with them and they’ll most likely be honest with you.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

You may be thinking about a career change but the planets urge you to sleep on the idea, because chances are you are not thinking straight. What happens over the next few days will bring new opportunities, so don’t change yet.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

This is not really the best time to be looking a long way ahead. In fact you should be looking at what is in front of you right now – because the next step you take is the one that matters. The future will take care of itself.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

Put your worries and woes out of your head and start believing that your dream will very soon come true. Success is as much about imagination as it is about hard work. Imagine you’re Number One – and you will be.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

You can be rather judgmental at times but today you must make a conscious effort not to be critical. You don’t have to like what a friend or relative is doing but you do have to accept that it’s the right move for them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

As a Fire sign you are no stranger to taking risks and over the next two or three days you will be tempted to do things that most people would never dare attempt. But that’s why they’re most people and why you are special.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Make sure that any claims you make can be backed up by facts. Sometimes it can be fun to make things up on the spur of the moment but the planets warn you will lose others’ trust and respect if you try it today.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Uranus, your ruler, endows you with an envious ability to see further and deeper than most other people, but are you making good use of it? It’s great that you can see the truth but shouldn’t you be helping others see it too?

 

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

You have your suspicions that someone is telling you lies but how do you prove it? Maybe you shouldn’t bother. Maybe it’s not worth the effort. Thank them for their advice – and do what you were going to do anyway.
