The Melissa McCarthy Era
As an ex-fatty, I have mixed feelings about the recent hubbub surrounding the new fat covergirls of Sports Illustrated. I get it, but maybe they could have worn a one piece bathing suit for that cover shoot. … Read More »

That Spritz Of Bieber
Clearly that well documented photo shoot between Justin Bieber and Kim Kardashian for Elle magazine had a lasting impression on the impressionable Justin Bieber. His camp has announced the creation of Eau De Toilette Justin Bieber. Toilette being the operative word. Well, if you think about it, a fragrance for lesbians marketed to tweens is borderline genius. Anyone who is anyone knows about my ongoing issue with celebrity fragrances and why it irks me to no end. The fact remains that the egos of these entertainers has gotten so out of control, that it cheapens their act altogether. Not that… Read More »
Elle Magazine Deserves A Medal
Oh, please with this controversy about the new Elle magazine cover photo featuring Gabourey Sidibe. Yikes. First of all, Essence magazine must be kicking themselves for not putting her on their cover first. Say what you want, she ain’t pretty enough to be on the cover of a fashion / beauty magazine. And I am dying to see how many more issues will sell (such a poet) with Gabourey gracing (for lack of a better word) the cover. W magazine did something like this a couple of years ago by featuring Ugly Betty‘s America Ferrera when that show was popular.… Read More »
Sears? Really?
httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FE4YVk1n6t8 Somebody please hold me up, I am dizzy from having just watched the Sears promotional video on fall footwear trend news. Sears and trend in the same sentence is a stretch. And this is proof of the downside to online video content that is contributing to the bastardization of fashion. There I was, innocently perusing Perez Hilton, he who has sold out to anyone that will pay him a dime, and lo and behold, was the commercial for Sears, staring Elle magazine stylist Francesca Mills. Here’s another downside to online original video content, literally everyone and their cousin thinks… Read More »
Lions & Tigers & Bed Bugs…Oh My
What in tarnation is going on in New York City with all these bedbug outbreaks? It used to be that mice and cockroaches were the big evil that plagued our city, but bed bugs? Really? I am breching (vomit in Yiddish). Bedbugs have been discovered recently in theaters, clothing stores, office buildings, housing projects, posh apartments and hotels. Gross! The city fielded 11,000 complaints about bedbugs last year. The thing that is sooo gross about bedbugs is that they make crabs look like the bug of choice. A little pubic scrub and some laundry and off you go…being the town… Read More »
