“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

Way before Demi Moore graced the cover of New York magazine barefoot nude and pregnant, rising singing star Kris Jenner did this photo shoot that went nowhere until now. Yes, Big Mamma Jenner actually posted this shot of herself on Twitter in honor of her son Rob’s birthday. Well, now we know that Kris and Demi have more in common that what meets the naked eye. Literally and figuratively.… Read More »

What happened to the women’s movement? In the aftermath of the recent Rush Limbaugh Slut-gate, coupled with the queasy-stomach inducing Rick Santorum rhetoric about contraception, I am harkened back to the Salem Witch Trials. How can you allow Gross Baboons like Sanotrum and Limbaugh make hay? Surely you learned about those days, before Gloria Steinem made it OK for women to have an opinion and Helen Gurley Brown cleared the path to having an orgasm. It was before Erica Jong’s Fear of Flying, which was around the time when burning the bra replaced shopping for them. Wasn’t this incredible time… Read More »

Who watched Fashion Star? OK, don’t admit it. I am kinda embarrassed to say that I tuned in. The format of Fashion Star is a bad combination of Let’s Make A Deal meets Antiques Roadshow meets To Tell The Truth. They should  re-name the show Have I Got A Schmatta For You. First of all, the little vignettes about each “designer’s” life is so uninteresting, it makes the American Idol visits to the finalists high school seem riveting, comparatively speaking. Attention: Television Producers… no one cares about these obscure hopefuls. I did not care about them on that show Scouted… Read More »

What is more delicious than the name of this designer collection in China? Chrisdien Deny does men’s and women’s clothing and accessories and should become the go-to designer for our entire right wing, Christian conservative zealots here in the US. Perhaps they could be the featured designer of choice for the Republican Convention in Tampa. Lord knows those Tea Baggers could use a make-over and do I got a line for them. Sidebar: I bought a baseball jacket in Korea once the said on the applique “All Love Is Need” instead of “All you Need Is Love”. Boy was that… Read More »

Please note: This Entry First Appeared July 12, 2009 Who’d have thunk that when I MEAN…WHAT?!? coined the phrase Manzie Report, and pointed out the horrendousness of some of the things that everyone’s favorite Manzie is wearing, that lo and behold, Time Magazine, yes, that magazine that puts Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton or Sarah Palin on the cover, has an entry about Mancessories. So, now that the Manzie has been adulated by the general media, I am thrilled to say my prescient observation of this uncanny trend has now been substantiated and I am officially anointing Time Magazine with… Read More »

Charlize Theron and Alexander Skarsgård have sparked rumours they are dating after they were spotted getting cosy at a bar. The pair were seen together at the Gym Sportsbar, a gay nightspot in Hollywood, according to the National Enquirer. A source told the publication “it was clear they were a couple” as they were holding hands and staring into each other’s eyes on the patio after ordering two beers. “After about 45 minutes, they left with their arms around each other and drove off in the same car.”… Read More »

Not a week after I said that Lindsay Lohan should lose those bangs comes her new ‘doo and I am taking full credit. Whatever. this, after she was mistaken for Debbie Harry who is FORTY years her senior. Too bad she didn’t do this for her return to Earth on Saturday Night Live. People would have been more focused on that rather than her cue-card festoon.… Read More »

“They’re baaack!” Remember Poltergeist II (see clip below) and to quote another line from the film here, “You are gonna die”, but only in the way that Rachel Zoe dies…as in I D-I-E. Manzies are back with a vengeance. Just look at what Marc Jacobs more to his Louis Vuitton after party in Paris. This updated Muu-Muu gown could very well be a Miu Miu gown, since he and Miuccia are palsies. But, hey, bless his heart for walking around as comfortably as he looks, complete with Priscilla Alden Pilgrim shoes, and not an ounce of flab. I’d kill to… Read More »

One of the best quotes from Woody Allen is in the movie Annie Hall when he says, “Those who can’t do… teach, and those who can’t teach… teach gym.” Well, now that Snooki is officially pregnant and engaged, we learn a little more about the elusive Jionni La Valle, Snooki’s manz. LaValle is a wrestling coach for little kids  and that he wants to go to school to become a gym teacher. Two peas in a pod that seek their own level.… Read More »
