The New FASHION POLICE with Kathy Griffin

/
fashion police

Joan Rivers' legacy lives on Monday night when the E! Network premieres the first Fashion Police after the untimely passing of its iconic and beloved host. Kathy Griffin was the obvious choice for the show and while's there's no replacing the late, great Joan Rivers, Kathy, I believe, will do quite well. C'mom, the bitch can work a pair of Loubs and has a sharp tongue - prerequisites for the job, surely. She'll be fine. And in the spirit of change and newness, stylist (and cutie-pie) George Kotsiopoulos has been replaced by flaming stylist & IG #selfie queen Brad Goreski. There hasn't been an official statement about George's departure from the show so I'm not going to speculate. I do know he is a very busy boy... and talented. I have a good feeling we'll be seeing lots of him in 2015! 

*Tune to E! on Monday for a Golden Globes Fashion Police Red Carpet Recap at 9PM. Best wishes to the new team, Giuliana, Kelly and Melissa Rivers! I'll be watching & tweeting.

What makes a Superstar? Ask Pharrell & David Beckham...

Pharrell Williams, David Beckham, Rita Ora and Damien Lilliard star in a video ad for Adidas featuring the Original Superstar sneaker that first came out in 1969. It's a super cool, super sleek and super stylized short film where these "superstars" question the meaning of super stardom. Hmmm... I'm a little skeptical of the integrity of all this. Watch for yourself and form your own opinion. At the very least, the video is entertaining and hello, David Beckham's in it!

Terry Richardson Outtakes: Nicki Minaj Rolling Stone

/

Nicki Minaj steamed up the January 2015 cover of Rolling Stone and gave a very candid interview. And why not? She's as revealing figuratively as she is in real life... She talked about "Anaconda" and didn't hold back, saying: "With a video like 'Anaconda,' I'm a grown-ass fucking woman! I stand for girls wanting to be sexy and dance, but also having a strong sense of themselves. If you got a big ol' butt? Shake it! Who cares? That doesn't mean you shouldn't be graduating from college."

Nicki went on to speak openly about personal matters. It's a good interview worth reading.

Photographer Terry Richardson took the Rolling Stones photos and he just released a few outtakes from the shoot on his website Terry's Diary. The images are sexy, of course, it's Nicki Minaj, but they also take a patriotic tone, especially with the salute. I'm sure some will find it offensive, but hey, it's just a t-shirt.

W Magazine's Best Performances 2015 & Stunning Celebrity Photos

/

With the award season among us, kicked-off by this weekend's Golden Globes, W Magazine has released their annual "Best Performances" movie issue. Stunning, brilliant and colorful images of Hollywood's superstars like Bradley Cooper, Emma Stone and Shailene Woodley have captured the creative mind and lens of photographer Tim Walker. W Magazine says Walker "was influenced by the colorful, sun-drenched Los Angeles paintings and photographs of David Hockney, as well as the '70s free-love aesthetic that informs the artist's work." The willingness from the actors to transform played beautifully with Walker's vision and sensibility resulting in an exquisite, stylized and visually dynamic body of work.

Justin Bieber Strips for Calvin Klein

/

And I was like, baby, baby, baby, oh... Justin Bieber! As the new face (and body) for Calvin Klein, the superstar will most likely gain a whole new crop of "Beliebers" as he shows off his washboard abs and tats while wearing nothing more than Calvin Klein underwear. In some of the ad photos, he also wears Calvin Klein jeans and model Lara Stone, but is anyone really noticing?? Yeah, back to the body. Exactly. Now that the Biebs seems to be growing up, let's hope his attitude does as well. In the meantime, enjoy the pecs - I meant pics.
