Hot Look of the Day: Frequently Fainting Socialite Jean Shafiroff’s Cinderella Gown at the Metropolitan Opera

screen-shot-2016-09-27-at-3-17-25-pm

Jean Shafiroff, socialite/author of Successful Philanthropy: How to Make a Life by What You Give – a guide to modern day philanthropy – was living her Barbie princess dream in this sweet spun-sugar couture confection at the opening night of the Metropolitan Opera at Lincoln Center in New York. The opera? A dreary five-and-a-half-hour staging of Wagner’s Tristan ind Isolde – which seems like a looooong time to be wearing a corseted dress and dozens of billowing crinoline. I only say this out of concern.

Jean made headlines in New York earlier this year when she fainted at the American Cancer Society’s Taste of Hope ball from a combination of the 90-degree heat and the weight of ANOTHER enormous pink ball gown.

She ALSO fainted in her Park Avenue apartment just two weeks ago, after contracting a tropical virus in Nicaragua while on a rescue mission to save street dogs.

From Page 6:

We’re told Shafiroff was treated for a large bump on her forehead and a cut lip and has been in bed for nine days. She was even forced to cancel two book signings in Southampton and had to skip a Hillary Clinton fundraiser.

Bless her. We just hope she stayed hydrated last night. HEALTH BEFORE COUTURE, GURL! (Photo: Pacific Coast News)

The queen of color blocking, winning fights in elevators, and oh yeah, being the little sister of – ahem – Queen Bey, Solange has been busy working on new music (and videos). After her November 2012 surprise release of “Losing You,” – a Dev Hynes produced masterpiece – and a synth-y summer crush EP, “True” to follow, we’ve been waited with baited breath for where she would go sonically next. Moving to New Orleans and literally having #WeddingGoals pictures (and cape dreams), today she announced the track list and release date (Sept. 30th) for her new album “A Seat At The Table.”

Check it out:

And from the looks of it, it’s gonna be a full length album that weaves together a story:

It goes without saying that it would be amazing being one of Britney’s dancers. From all her Instagram pics hanging out with them on holidays to goofing around, I think it’s safe to say any of us would trade seats with any of them. Today, Brandon Bryant posted the most adorable video of him and his fellow dance compadres to a very iconic Spice Girls moment. Can you guess which one based off this picture?

Check it out:

Britney boys pay tribute to the girl group that started it all. Here in London and we found it! @spicegirls #Wannabe

An All-New Slew of Supermodels Lip-Sync to George Michael in the Updated “Freedom ’90”

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-10-21-29-amscreen-shot-2016-09-28-at-10-21-33-am

I remember it like it was yesterday: The MTV debut of George Michael‘s video for “Freedom ’90” featuring the biggest supermodels of the decade – Christy Turlington! Cindy Crawford! Linda Evangelista! Naomi Campbell! – all lip-syncing to his lyrics (as he had famously come to shun the limelight). And… it… was… MIND-BLOWING! LIFE CHANGING! INSTANTLY ICONIC! DECADE DEFINING! The perfect fusion of music! fashion! and video! Directed by David Fincher and styled by Camilla Nickerson, it was simply the best there had ever been. Maybe my favorite video OF ALL TIME? (How many early morning recreations of “Christy-wearing-the-bedsheets” did I do for my post-clubbing houseguests?)

Now, on the “Freedom! ‘90” anniversary, Vogue has updated the video with the next generation of mega supermodels—Adriana Lima, Joan Smalls, Anna Ewers, Irina Shayk, Taylor Hill, and more— dressed up in the best looks from the Spring 2017 runways while dancing on the streets of New York City. The fizzy power of the song has never diminished, and feels just as fabulous today as it did 26 years ago.

Watch it below. And compare and contrast to the original version below THAT.

Nico Tortorella Talks to Elle About Being “Too Good-Looking”

0
0

landscape-1474992271-el-092716-nico

First of all, let’s just get this out of the way: I loooooooove Nico Tortorella. I love the way he lives his life. I love his fearlessness, his exuberance, and by God, you know what? He IS too good-looking. Too good-looking by FAR. If anyone else ever dared to say such a thing, I would mercilessly mock them until the end of time. However, in an interview with Elle.com (entitled “Want to Know What It’s Like to Be Too Good-Looking? Ask Nico Tortorella”) the Younger star is asked – point blank – how he feels about being objectified for his looks. His answer is both fascinating and refreshing.

“I know I have to play into it to a certain extent,” he tells the magazine. “If I have to be objectified in my twenties to be taken seriously in my thirties, I’m doing something right.”

Yeah. That’s pretty self-aware. And it sounds like Hollywood in a nutshell, doesn’t it?

He continues:

ELLE: Was [being objectified] part of the job, something you were aware of as you got into acting?
NICO: As long as my work continues to speak for itself outside of what I look like, I’m okay. This is going to sound obnoxious, but I get told I’m too good-looking for a lot of roles. They don’t write roles people would think I’m supposed to play as often as they used to—the rom-com pretty-boy storylines. Movies are thankfully about real people nowadays, and I don’t necessarily always look like a real person.

You seem pretty aware of how you you’re presented.
One hundred percent. I wear my heart on my sleeve and live my life as openly and honestly as I can.

He then opens up about his much-discussed gender fluidity:

“Look, a lot of people don’t think that the way that I live my life is a real thing, that it exists, that having a broad spectrum of sexual orientation is even possible. I get told all the time on social media. God forbid you open up a Reddit article. But it comes with it, you know? I’m not trying to redefine sexuality or humanity or say that my answer is right and yours is wrong. I’m just happy with who I am. I am driven by love and I have been in love with a handful of different people, men and women. It’s like, if you go to a bookstore and you know exactly what kind of book you want, you have to look it up in the system because it’s in a specific section of the bookstore. I fit into a handful of sections in the bookstore.”

Some people believe that a bi or pansexual relationship can’t be monogamous. You’re dating a woman right now. Do you believe in monogamy?
I believe in it. I am not ruled by sex. I never have been. I’m not looking to fuck all the time. I am more interested in the ability to have intimate relationships with people on an emotional level.

What’s been the industry’s attitude toward your “coming out?” Because Hollywood is notoriously—
Run by a bunch of old white dudes who say anything other than heteronormative is blasphemy? That is still sadly the case, but I had hours and hours of conversation with my entire team about how I was going to handle this, because I refused from the beginning to restrict myself to any sort of lifestyle. I think as long as you come at it from a place of positive passion, it sets the right example. And I do think it’s gotten better for actors who want to be out or open in their careers. I think—I hope—we are moving toward a tipping point.

Read the whole interview here. And if you don’t follow Nico on Instagram, GOOD GODWHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? You are depriving yourself of one of life’s great pleasures. Flow him here, now.

5 Things We Love About The New “Fantastic Beasts” Trailer

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-18-43-pm

Wands at the ready, hunties! Grab your wands and point them at your MacBook because the new (full length) trailer for Fantastic Beasts came out and it. Is. Everything! Your recently discovered Patronus from Pottermore won’t protect your hearts’ fluttering post-viewing this already iconic trailer. Comic Con released a trailer back in June that the kids got their entire life too, but this new one will have you spitting out your Butterbeer and put all the Wingardiums in your Leviosa.

Here’s the five things we LOVE about the new trailer:

5) THIS BOSS WITCH

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-21-55-pm
When she first appears in the trailer, I was all:

tvr2m68
Then I was like, wait:

giphy
Well, it’s Seraphina Picquery (played by  Carmen Ejogo) whom just happens to be the President of the Magical Congress of the United States.

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-15-28-pm

So…like…this is her anthem:

4) THE FASHION/ADVENTURE

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-21-16-pm
I know, I know…you’re probably like:

tumblr_mb8aj45chf1qew2ypo1_500
…it’s a little confusing/not fair to combine the two…but without frills this trailer managed to showcase the perilous journey New Scamander will be embarking on, while making him and the other characters look fly as f***, without coming off too gimmicky or costume-y. It’s like Penny Dreadful meets Corpse Bride meets Sleepy Hollow realness.

ONE WORD:

3) THE BEASTS

They range from cute to:

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-45-17-pm
2) EZRA MILLER AS CREDENCE

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-23-04-pm

Giving Spock a run for his bull-cut money (and Norman Bates facial expression), I’m jazzed about this casting. There’s not much on IMDB about whom Credence is, but I can’t wait.

1) COLIN FARRELL IS DADDY

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-12-13-45-pm
Didn’t know he was gonna be in it (looking so delicious), yet there he stands all GQ and s***. He plays Percival Graves and it’s clear he plays a gangster straight outta London.

He says: “You’re an interesting man, Mr. Scamander. Just like your suitcase, I think there’s more to you than meets the eye. Kicked out of Hogwarts for endangering human life with a beast, yet one of your teachers argued strongly against your expulsion. I wonder… what makes Albus Dumbledore so fond of you, Mr. Scamander?”

Here’s the trailer so you can watch for yourself and pick out your favorite parts:

The era of new magic begins on November 18th.

Ukranian Prankster Tries to Literally Kiss Kim Kardashian’s Ass at Paris Fashion Week

screen-shot-2016-09-28-at-2-11-51-pm

Vitalii Sediuk – the relentless Ukranian “prankster” who has infamously accosted Brad Pitt, America Ferrera, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lopez at red carpet events – as well as manhandling Gigi Hadid last week – is back in the news again. Yesterday, he lunged at Kim Kardashian in Paris as left the Balmain offices and tried to plant a kiss on her gorgeous behind. Luckily, he was stopped before reaching her, and was pinned to the ground by her security guard Pascual Duvier (pictured above), whom she publicly thanked, and called him “a G.”

Via the Daily Mail:

The incident comes exactly two years since Sediuk caused havoc by trying to grab Kim as she arrived for the Balmain show 2014.

It also comes just a week after the 27-year-old was elbowed in the face by supermodel Gigi Hadid after he lifted her up on the street during Milan Fashion Week.

You can watch Gigi give Vitalii an elbow to the face here.

Vitali is pictured below, from an earlier arrest.

Be Still My Heart: Former 1D Cutie Niall Horan’s Releases Solo Track “This Town”

screen-shot-2016-09-29-at-4-37-58-pmscreen-shot-2016-09-29-at-4-38-10-pm

Niall Horan was always the dark horse of 1D. Not as pretty as Zayn, not as charismatic as Harry… but there was always something there. He had a fragility that made you want to hug him and tell him it was all going to be alright. And a million watt smile that surprised you every time you saw it. And most importantly, he was the one who got along with ALL of his bandmates. No squabbles. No mind games. He’s just a good guy. Period.

Then there’s the voice. It tended to get lost amidst Harry and Zayn’s showboating, but when you hear it solo, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by just how lovely it is.

Below is his new stripped-down acoustic song, “This Town,” produced by Greg Kurstin, the super-producer behind Adele’s “Hello”, and Sia’s “The Greatest” and “Cheap Thrills”, – done in just one take. Pretty impressive stuff

I’ve always said Niall has the potential to be bigger that either Harry or Zayn – he’s got a Robbie Williams quality to him – mark my words.

In a recently unearthed video, perennially fat-shaming presidential nominee Donald Trump is asked by AJ Benza on HLN’s Showbiz Tonight if he had a problem with multi-millionaire Kim Kardashian creating a gif registry when she was pregnant with North.

No, no, he didn’t have a problem with the registry… but he did have a problem with her weight.

“She a nice person, I’ve known her over the years, and she’s a really nice person. She’s gotten a little bit large. I would say this, I don’t think you should dress like you weigh 120 pounds”

Ugh. I don’t even have the energy to list all the things wrong with that.
