“I Mean…What?!?” – Abe Gurko

We have had more Lindsay Lohan court appearance outfits than episodes of  Jersey Shore. If MTV would piece together the amount of footage and hearsay related to Lindsay Lohan’s court appearances, they would have a Roots-long docu-drama that would garner endless ratings because whether you love her or a hater…Lindsay Lohan is fascinating. Quite honestly, Lindsay should have taken my advice as mentioned in Crushable, when asked how she should handle her post jail comeback. But what do I know? FROM CRUSHABLE: As for her post-prison plans, Abe advised her to keep a low profile, attend theater classes or maybe… Read More »

So let me get this straight, America’s obsession with that gross homeless drunk, Ted Williams, continues? Word is, Williams has achieved the ultimate new American dream by getting his own reality show. Is that how far down the line of good taste, and good sense for that matter, that we have gone? When that was the lead story on all the national news networks, I refused to even acknowledge it because quite frankly, he is gross and who can look at him? Radio surely was his only hope. But now that he has landed a reality show, charting his comeback,… Read More »

Exotic beauties, Rosario Dawson, and MTV Skins’ Sophia Black D’Elia (recently sitting front row at G-Star Raw fashion show) looked stunning in their glossy tresses done by Roy Teeluck. The celebrity hairstylist just opened his new salon on 57th and 5th Avenue in time for Mercedes Benz Fashion Week to a resounding success. Word is that Olivia Palermo, client of the Andre Davis at the salon will host the opening in the Spring. For more information, please click here, Johnna Escobedo, johnna@abenyc.com… Read More »

People, people who read people. Are the funniest people in the world. What is comedy? There are so many ways to makes people laugh. It is never one thing, or one style of humor that fills a room with laughter. There is slapstick, dry, drawing room, sarcasm, bitchy, sardonic, dick, nasty, at the expense of others, the list goes on. Sometimes we laugh at other people’s foibles or mistakes in judgment. Other times we guiltily laugh at when they slip and fall on the snow, which is the premise behind Johnny Knoxville and the Jackass phenomenon. Come on, you know… Read More »

UPDATE: To all of the people who were seriously angry with me, even wishing me death, for having an opinion about what happened to Serene Branson the other night, please note that I wish her nothing but the best of health and well being. Your anger, however, is severely misplaced. To wish harm to others for finding humor is a world chock full of endless serious issues proves nothing besides how small minded and evil you evil-wishers are. Last year, I featured Lindsay Lohan‘s salacious video for Muse Magazine, something that I was hired to do, and you would have… Read More »

Why can’t every day be Valentine’s Day? With all the horrible anger and violence going on in Egypt and on the eve of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week here in New York City, why can’t we all just share the love for our fellow man…or woman…or man for man or woman for woman. You get the picture. My friend Tony Kelly, who shot Alexandra Richards for French Playboy, did these vibrant images for American Apparel of all people. Can you just imagine why the soft core porn folks would want to do something so poppy and perky and less soft porny?… Read More »

Mercedes Benz Fashion Week is in full regalia and there seems to be hundreds of shows and presentations being staged everywhere you turn. Don’t be surprised if that group of homeless people in tattered clothes and pilling blankets isn’t really the hottest, new fashion and coordinated home collection inspired by the 9.5% unemployment rate that is challenging our economy. The designer, Toothless McGee, really does live in a box, and a recyclable one at that, to show how eco-friendly he is. The collection is called “Thrown Money” and the accessories are made from loose change strung together with fishing wire.… Read More »

I am an avid black wearer. No matter what color is on trend, or whatever fashion editors say is the new black, I wear black. Last season I really started grooving on grey, and by the looks of things, grey is not only the new grey, but it becoming a major staple many people’s wardrobes, surely mine. Yesterday, Mensweek (WWD) did a Vegas preview of Fall ’11, much of which was grey. Fortunately two of the designers included in the piece were clients of mine, MNRKY and Scott James. These two upstart collections are trying to find their niche in… Read More »

“Like sands through the hourglass…so are the Days of Our Lives.” Truer words have ne’er been spoken and they also apply to the fashion industry. I mean…who doesn’t squeeze their sorry ass into a tight fitting pair of jeans, leggings or jeggings these days in the hopes of feeling as thin as the models that sashay down the runways. Maybe my comparison is a stretch (as in Spandex). Mercedes Benz Fashion Week kicks off today and someone, somewhere is squeezing into their DLs, throwing on their tight, fitted, cropped jacket with gobs of accessories, readying to make an entrance at… Read More »
