In a Q&A with NY Mag, Hov answers questions about his favorite childhood game, his first single off of the Blueprint 3 album "D.O.A." and kicking off the World Series with the a performance of "Empire State of Mind".

Tomorrow morning at 8AM PT, Hautelook will be having a sale on Carmen Marc Valvo sunglasses. Get them on the cheap! Remember, "Friends don't let friends pay retail."

The video is a bit on the freaky side; however this would so be me with Michael Jackson. I never expected this sort of video coming out of the song which is very romantic and cute, yet Lily looks absolutely gorgeous...romantic... and cute...

Friend to fuchsiaMAG (and all around good person to know) Haize.Rava made it onto Complex Fashion's "20 Fashion Designers Worth Following On Twitter". She came in at number 11 and I can tell you personally she's a good twitter buddy to have. She's come a long way from being one of the many who never wanted to sign up for an account, but is now taking over the game. Congrats girl!

Can we say, "D-I-E?"  JPG is officially teaming up with Target stores for a March 2010 collection launch. 


The same way Alexander McQueen and Anna Sui had thier muses, Gaultier will have his own lady of inspiration.  Can you guess "Who's that girl?"  Yes, (obviously) it's the queen of reinvention-Madonna.  Gaultier was very influential to her style during the early 1990's.  


Well, we have about five months before the line makes its debut, but I can guarantee the blogs will be buzzin' with sneak peak pics.

essie has created three sweet colors for the upcoming winter season. There's Lollipop-candy cane red; Rock Candy-sweet treat pink; and Mint Candy Apple-a creme de menthe mint. All of the colors are yummy, but the Mint Candy Apple will probably sell out the fastest.


For Breast Cancer Awareness month, essie has released a special Yes We Can, Pink polish. According to essie.com, "a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Living Beyond Breast Cancer (LBBC), a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering women affected by the disease."

The Jimmy Choo line is collaborating with Elton John's AIDS foundation.  The limited edtion punk rock line consists of bags, shoes, cuffs and scarves.  Prices range from $85-$995.  
25% of the net sales will benefit the Simelela center for victims of violence in Khayelitsha, South Africa according to T-Magazine.

Here's an (alleged) pic of the Christian Louboutin designed Barbie doll coming out soon.

In an e-mail from BarbieCollector.com, the new Barbie created by her "godfather" will have a "glam new look" which includes a new face sculpt, skin tone, and foot structure to fit into her four pairs of red bottom heels. Her shoes will also come with shoe boxes and cloth shoe bags.

There will be a series of three dolls and Barbie Collector VIPs get priority on ordering. So if you're interested, then visit the website to sign up.

I may be tempted to add to my collection ( I own the Spring in Tokyo and Kimora Lee Simmons dolls) depending on whether or not they release a doll with my skin tone... if you know what I mean. We shall wait and see.

The gentlemen's magazine is paying tribute to the fallen 'Angel' on their new cover. Would this be considered a tribute or a sleazy way to make money for the publication?

The gorgeous Fawcett has appeared in the magazine a few times from 1978 to 1995.

Ok now, be honest, ooh lala or eww lala??

Khloe, Kourtney, and Kim will be designing a spring line for the somewhat affordable store chain Bebe. Bebe is known for their feminine and sexy styles as well as their very voluptuous mannequins.

On Kim's website she exclaimed, "This is honestly a dream come true! We have always loved fashion and have wanted to design for such a long time and now we finally are!”

I like these girls, and I commend them on their hustle, but I have one question. Why haven't they designed
a line for their clothing store Dash?

LAST August, Britt Aboutaleb, a New York-based blogger, wrote a post for Fashionista.com, a beauty and fashion Web site, about her visit to a Gap store where “cute boys” served her coffee while Patrick Robinson, the Gap’s lead designer, helped her select a pair of jeans. It was unclear whether Ms. Aboutaleb had received the $69 jeans free, but some readers’ antennae were raised.
In comments about her post, they accused her of being intentionally vague. But her online response to the comments was anything but vague: “How is it less than crystal clear that I went intending to walk away with gifted jeans? Must I put FREE in the title?”
According to Federal Trade Commission guidelines announced last week, the answer is — or soon will be — “yes.”

In an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, Madge discussed her collaborations with Justin Timberlake on the song "4 Minutes" and with rapper Lil Wayne on "Revolver" which she referred to as "badass".

However, someone the Material Girl wanted to work with didn't accept the offer. That someone was Eminem. "I wanted to work with him, but he didn't want to work with me." Her reason for his decline, "Maybe he's shy."

Too bad Michigan's bad girl and bad boy couldn't come together for what could've been an amazing collaboration.

All I have to say is this song makes me miss "Jenny From the Block".

You're take, ooh lala or eww lala??????????????????

Today the new LV line for spring and summer 2010 premiered at Paris Fashion Week. For us unlucky fashion lovers unable to be in the same room of the creations made by the fabulous Marc Jacobs, fans of the facebook page were able to watch the show live.

Colors that stood out were bronze, lime green, sky blue, taupe and hot pink. The bag line seemed to appeal to the casual girl always on the go who appears as though she doesn't care about her image--but secretly she does.

The show is still on demand but only for a few more hours, so catch it while you can.

Still rockin' at 40. Amazing.

Guitarist Tom Dumont of No Doubt Fame (farthest to the right) composed and recorded the music score for "The Providence Effect" according to a No Doubt e-mail.

The e-mail goes on to say, "The Providence Effect," a major new theatrical documentary will change the way America thinks about teaching our children. It captures how one school in the inner city of Chicago, Providence St. Mel, has created the method and the environment where children learn to think and to overcome social barriers, family circumstances and financial pressures to become high achieving students.

Live Nation released a statement yesterday that the Fame Kills Tour has been cancelled with no further explanation. Possible reasons could be the lack of sold out pre-sale tickets due to Kanye West's outburst during MTV's VMA show during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech.

Rumors have been swirling that the rapper will be going into rehab to handle some unresolved issues dealing with the passing of his mother.

Despite all of the drama and hoop-la, Fame Kills would've no doubt been an artistic and interesting show. Too bad it didn't work out.

Here's a quick little tutorial of how to get a tiger print on your nails similar to Rihanna's. You can follow the steps in the video but Rihanna's white and goldish brown color would probably look best. Enjoy!
