“My wrinkles are real, and they’re SPECTACULAR”

To prove that she hasn’t had Botox, Desperate Housewife Terri Hatcher posted pics of herself to her Facebook page, apparently untouched, fresh out of the shower.

Terri wrtote “Out of the bath getting ready for bed. Thought about all those damn critics of my face. Love it or hate it, my face that is, no surgery, no implants, no matter what ‘they’ say. Decided I’d shoot myself in to reveal some truths about ‘beauty’ and hope it makes you all easier on yourself.”

All while wearing mascara or maybe extensions on her eyelashes. 

She may not have had Botox, but she looks like she’s had something done to her face around her mouth (Restylane maybe?).  Oh well, can’t hate on Terri too much.  As Hollywood standards go, this is about as real as it gets.

No pictures of Naomi Allowed

Boo!

Naomi Campbell, the famously mal-tempered model with a penchant for beating the help and throwing Blackberry’s at them, has scored a minor victory of sorts for herself when she testifies at the trial of Charles Taylor, deposed Liberian warlord and dictator at the Hague tomorrow.

Naomi will be there to answer questions on whether or not she received blood diamonds from Taylor back in 1997 in South Africa.  Taylor used them to fund his activities.

Naomi said she feared for her safety and that of her family if cameras were present, and the court agreed, barring paps from taking pictures of Naomi in or around the court.  Naomi’s request for a total gag order on everything about her visit except public testimony was denied.

Fear for her safety?  HA!  Good one. 

What about the safety of various staff members that might come into contact with Naomi when she’s having one of her “moments”?

Lady Gaga is a drag

 

Here we go again with those hermaphrodite rumours.  Anyone else getting an Annie Lennox/Eurythmics as Bob Dylan vibe with this latest look?

Apparently, this is Lady Gaga, dressed as a dude for Vogue Homme Japan.  Odd,  I went to high school with a guy that actually looked a lot like this.  How long do you think it’ll be before Gaga tries this look (or something similar) for one of her videos?

Did anyone notice it was gone?

Good news for pervs that like to see pictures of pretty, pretty, young people in various stages of undress with pan-sexual overtones.

Abercrombie & Fitch is bringing back it’s A&F Quarterlymagazine after discontinuing the publication in 2003.  Often featuring photographs by Bruce Weber, the catelogue came under fire by some watchdog groups for it’s “racy images”.  Yes, civilization as we know it may end because kids can see some 20 year old male model naked from the backside.  Quelle horror!

Under pressure, A&F toned down the content a bit, which may have been one of the reasons they decided to scrap the catelogue seven years ago.  Sales of the magazine  started to drop.  Half the fun was seeing just how far they’d push the envelope nudity wise, but once the “racy” portion was taken out of the equation, A&F Quarterly didn’t really stand out.

The first issue of the relaunched magazine will be available at A&F stores starting July 17th for $10.

More Cristiano Ronaldo for Emporio Armani

And why not?

Cristiano’s hot.  The World Cup is currently underway.  He’s hot. 

Apparently, Cristiano’s ads will be gracing billboards starting in late July when beginning of the fall/winter campaign (I think it’s called  “transitional”) starts.

As for Real Madrid (Cristiano’s team) they’re expected to do quite well at The World Cup, if not walk away with it.  No pressure there.

Glee’s Matthew Morrison and Mark Salling are looking Good

In the pages of Vogue and GQ, respectively.

Let’s just get this out of the way shall we?  Yowza. 

Are Matthew’s abs real, photoshoped, or contouring with makeup, or a combination of all three?  I’d happily volunteer to find out (a dirty job to be sure, but someone has to do it).

A fashion “do” and a fashion “dont”

The 2010 MET Costume Institute Gala was held last night in NYC, celebrating the American Woman in fashion.

Vogue overlord Anna Wintour hosted last night’s event, along with the Mighty Opes, who said she was planning on drinking a “lot of Tequila”. 

Dealing with Anna and her famous icy cut eye probably brings that out in a lot of people as a coping mechanism, just sayin’… 

Anyhoodle, two celebs and their outfits really stood out, for entirely different reasons.  Just remember, fashion is art, and art is subjective…

Zoe Saldana brought her A-game to the Gala, in this beautiful gown by Calvin Klein.  All is now forgiven over the dress she wore to the Oscars.  Hopefully, she sticks with CK.  His style totally suits her.

Now for this.  Do you think Katy Perry’s dress came with batteries included?  I get she’s a pop star and a quirky one at that, but when you look like you might get electocuted if you get a little wet, you’ve taken things too far.

What goes around…

…Comes around.  Even for the Big M.

Madonna, fully aware of the irony in this statement, went on the record with  Us Weekly that she wishes daughter Lourdes (Lola) would dress more conservatively.

A whole generation (or two) of women with daughters who grew up trying to emulate Madonna are probably feeling really smug and vindicated right about now.  Just sayin…’

The Big M is teaming with Lola to design a line of clothing called Material Girl for Macy’s (She’s never going to shake that moniker is she?) which should be available later this year.

Madonna says she enjoyed designing a line for H&M a couple of years back, but felt the project took up too much of her time.  Apparently, this go around is pretty much Lola’s gig, although Madonna is involved in the business side of things, attending meetings with her daughter.

Am feeling rather old and unaccomplished at the moment.  You?

More Quotes From Crazy Karl

It’s been a while since we’ve heard from le Karl hasn’t it?

Guess he was busy readying for the Channel fall/winter 2010 show for Paris fashion week, and terrifying his minions. 

In an overly long and  rambling interview with  Vice Magazine (who might want to reconsider sending Bruce laBruce out to interview people when he’s far more interested in tasking about himself), Karl Lagerfeld weighs in on a variety of subjects…

On fame and celebrity:  “You cannot fight against it. There’s a price you have to pay for fame, and people who don’t want to pay that price can get in trouble. I accepted the idea of celebrity because of a French expression: “You cannot have the butter and the money for the butter.” And now I cannot cross the street. I cannot go anywhere. I have bodyguards. I have big cars… I don’t travel commercially. Whenever I go around the world I go on private jets.”

On homosexuality: “When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said—and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded—“It’s like hair color. It’s nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. It’s not a subject.” This was a very healthy attitude. Some people make drama out of it. I don’t even understand. It’s not a problem. It doesn’t exist. It’s not a subject. For me it never was.”

On those sunglasses of his: “They’re my burka. A burka for a man. I’m a little shortsighted, and people, when they’re shortsighted, they remove their glasses and then they look like cute little dogs who want to be adopted. I want to stay shortsighted or else I will need glasses for reading. But I don’t want them because I sketch, I do everything without glasses, except for speaking to strangers. Especially if they wear glasses, too.”

On porn and sex:  “I admire porn. And I personally only like high-class escorts. I don’t like sleeping with people I really love. I don’t want to sleep with them because sex cannot last, but affection can last forever. I think this is healthy. And for the way the rich live, this is possible. But the other world, I think they need porn. I also think it’s much more difficult to perform in porn than to fake some emotion on the face as an actor. I admire porn actors.”

There’s a lot more, like wearing fur (he’s all for it), his aversion to being politically correct (it’s dull) and voting (not happening).  The best thing about le Karl though, is that he dosen’t give a rats ass what people think if they disagree with his views.  “Not possible” is his usual response.

Heh.  

Rock on Karl, rock on.

Does “X” mark the spot?

 
“>

Here’s the commercial featuring the men of the Calvin Klein Brand X Underwear campaign for spring 2010.

To answer their (rhetorical?) question, for the record, I wouldn’t mind a quick peek.  Just sayin’.
