How do stars get fabulous jewelry and dresses for the awards shows? Do they have to beg for them, or do people come to them?
—Sarah, Toronto

People don't just "come to" stars. The designers and their publicists pay the stars. To wear their stuff. Tens of thousands of dollars. To wear a dress or a diamond necklace for a few hours. Like, Hilary Swank and Charlize Theron both reportedly earned $100,000 to wear diamonds from Chopard at the Golden Globes a few years ago.

Stars: They're just like us! Now, let's tackle more of your Burning Q's.

How old is Ali Lohan?
—X.O.

14.

Do stars like Victoria Beckham and the Kardashian sisters really design their own lines, or do they just put their names on the products?
—Mz.

Depends on the line. Some stars just license their names and let designers do the rest, while other like to obsess over zippers and color swatches. But no celebrity designs an entire collection alone. They all have real designers working with them to create the final collection.

How can I nanny for the celebs, like Britney Spears or Brad Pitt?
—Karissa

Apply through a nanny agency. Brangelina uses one called the Help Co.

Dina Lohan. Discuss.
—Sara, London

Dina, eh? Yep, she sure is there, all right. Right there. On E!, the network that pays my electric bill. Look! Over there! A Jonas brother!
