While the world is literally still falling over themselves upon seeing Kim Kardashian’s new blonde locks, Oscar winning actor Jared Leto upstages the reality star in Paris! I bet she wasn’t expecting to be sharing the spotlight of blonde mane when she set out this morning in Paris to debut the hair. Apparently Jared must have read the memo that blonde and velvet jackets are in this spring! Another irony is the fact that they both debuted their respective crops at the same fashion week show of Balmain!

Just when I was busy asking myself if blondes really do have more fun. Guess, this would serve as the answer. Time to grab the bleach and get to work! Let the battle of the blondes begin! SNAP!

Bullying is NEVER acceptable nor is it cool or sexy in any way shape or form! Watch as a 17 year old beats up a 12 year old girl in Italy while their schoolmates record the ordeal before coming to her aid at the last minute. My heart bleeds for the young girl. Parents, please educate your kids!

Proceed with caution, the video is very disturbing. So sad. 🙁

 

OUCH! This is embarrassing! Last week, Lupita Nyong’s Oscar red carpet dress was reportedly stolen from her hotel room in Hollywood shortly after the awards. I honestly don’t think the dress was ever stolen but more of a PR stunt (thieves never give stuff back) and have always known those pearls weren’t real. The value of the dress is valued at $150k because that’s the perception the designer (Calvin Klein) wants for the press, thought to be made of real pearls. Now the truth has been uncovered. The dress was reportedly returned by the thieves in a garbage bag after discovering it’s made entirely of fake pearls. Do they not know of the teeth test? Duh! Yawn…anything for press.

The Dark Ages are almost upon us. It breaks my heart to watch ISIS members take sledge hammers to 3000 yr old artifacts and relics at Mosul Museum in Iraq. What really baffles me is why couldn’t they just gather the collection and sell them to the highest bidders in the Western world since they sometimes hold people at ransom for money over their deaths? Everyone is entitled to their causes but why take it out on stones that can not speak but simply to educate us of a time gone by? As an art lover, my heart feels heavy with sadness to watch an era come to an end –literally.

Brace yourself, the video footage below is disturbing.

The Oscars as usual brings out the glam and the glum of Hollywood and last night was no different. As expected, both of my favorites took home the golden dudes. It’s long overdue for such talents as Julianne Moore to score one and a fairly newcomer Eddie Redmayne also took home the top acting honor. Their respective performances in their roles moved me to tears at the theaters.

Ok, now on to the fashion. Everyone looked razzle dazzle and I applaud. But I must be honest. How many more times is JLO going to play the deep plunging V necklines on red carpets? YAWN….I quite prefer the number she wore to the Vanity Fair Oscar afterparty. Perhaps it’s time her glam team start revising their formula or risk more faux pas like what happened last night when Robert Duvall’s wife was seen waltzing the red carpet in similar garb as JLO. And again looked like the one on Katie Cassidy on the red carpet!!! OY!

Lady Gaga had a fair share of risk appearing in what looked like she was wearing a full apron and gloves to scrub off some dead bodies in the bathtub. And Lupita’s Calvin Klein dress must weigh a ton with all of those 6000 faux pearls sewn on her little frame. Scarlett Johansson overkilled her Versace gown with the necklace. Chrissy Teigen bared too much chest and legs at the same time, over done. While many others need to fire their stylists, Zoe Kravitz needs to hire one fast!

The only outfit that really had me salivating? Well, Rosamund Pike of Gone Girl. Overall, Elie Saab, Zuhair Murad and Givenchy killed it with Oscar gowns this year!

Well, there’s always next year. Now back to work!

I just got back from a private screening of Cinderella movie. Gotta to say it’s the MOST well produced and well acted movie of all Cinderella movies I have ever seen! So emotional, realistic and convincing! 2 thumps up for Game of Thrones actor playing the Prince and 2 actresses from Downtown Abbey playing Cinderella and one as the step sister. And you can expect nothing but the best from Cate Blanchett as the wicked step mother. She NAILED IT! Oh the fashion, to die for!

It’s a must see for all adults and kids alike. I might be seeing it again when it hits theaters on March 13. Did I mention the glass shoes? Very unique. A must!

It’s not everyday you get to hear Kanye West down play Nike high top sneakers to promote his own line of sneakers to admiring fans who just happened to be at the airport. One lucky fan could very well get a brand new pair of sneakers from the hit maker if he keeps his words. Watch the video footage to witness Yeezus make a fan’s dream come true. Gotta say, that’s mighty sweet of him.

The Grammy awards brings out the naughtiest and fashionably daring moments in the music biz. The images below say plenty without me having to yap too much about nothing here. Some even left me gasping for air (thanks Madonna), while others had me wondering why in God’s name they gave their stylist a day off on a big night like this one. Sigh…I suppose it can happen to the best of us.

Alas, I must say kudos to such risk takers like Rihanna for trying something new and daring for the red carpet in an enormous pink tulle dress by Giambattista Valli. My hats off to her.

Snow storm Juno decided to chicken out on New York and settle for Boston after much hype. The city’s weather status was reduced to a winter storm on Tuesday. I was slightly disappointed because I was looking forward to going out and scoring some really cool pictures. Nevertheless, we thank God it missed New York for safety reasons because judging by the pictures surfacing from Boston, it looks like they’re in a bit of a pickle and then some. They are knee deep in 30+ inches of snow! YIKES!

On another matter. When was the last time you saw a totally emptied out Grand Central Station? I never thought I would live to witness such a day. What a beauty!

Stay warm & safe out there folks!
