Happy Mother’s Day: A Tribute to Some Cool-As-Hell Mother/Daughter Duos

When Beyonce chanted, “Who run the world? Girls”, I don’t think she meant just any girls – she was referring to a specific breed of girls – Mothers. I don’t need to sit here and try to convince you why Mother’s Day is probably the most important celebration that we recognize as a society. Honoring the women who are the very rocks that hold our families together should actually be done everyday, but… there’s only so many flowers in this world. So thank you to all the mothers out there, we love you and hope you know that you’re oh-so appreciated <3 read more…

HEADLINES: Street Style is Dead, Emma Makes Tartan Look Good, and 2 Has-Beens From the OC Hook-Up.

Jimmy Choo launches street style site Choo 24:7. Where you can upload a photo of yourself IF you are wearing something from the Choo brand. So, essentially, not street style at all. Will Bill Cunningham just slap a beech already and #savestreetstyle ?!? read more…

HEADLINES: Brad Goes for Broke, Vanessa Shows Some Skin, and Heidi Rocks Her Ring (Too).

Mr. Wong is dishing the dirt on his boss, Mark Zuckerberg. Sounds like Jesse Einsenberg’s portrayal wasn’t far off. But – is it just me, or are everyone’s speculations of Asperger’s offside? (The Toronto Star)

Suri Cruise is having a good press day. Everyone is talking about her trip to Disneyland with Tom. But this is, by far, my favourite contribution. (Suri’s Burn Book)

So Heidi is game? She’s cool with all of Seal’s incessant discussions with the media about their business? Playing it like he’s a good guy when everyone knows he’s a rage-a-holic? I don’t know – something seems fishy here. (People)

Ok, one more. We promise. Behold – Sh*t Liz Lemon Says (The Insider)

Is Brad Pitt dangling a Jolie-Pitt marriage in exchange for Oscar? I buy it. But is it enough to beat George, I’m not so sure. (Lainey Gossip)

Someone please tell me why a billionaire is huffing whip-its like Evan Rachel Wood and Nikki Reed in Thirteen. (TMZ)

Jesus, this girl can’t keep her clothes on. (Popsugar)

Gasp! Karl let Alice wear ripped stockings on television? He must really like her. (Fashionista)

HEADLINES: Rihanna Lives a Thug Life, Tim Gunn Needs to Get Some, and Skin-thia Nixon Goes Bald.

New couple alert! Kirsten Dunst and Garrett Hedlund have been making out all over Sundance. Going public while promoting a new movie? That wasn’t contrived at all. (People)

Oh Rihanna, why do you make it so hard for me to like you? These tattoos just made it infinitely harder. (Daily Mail)

I think it’s safe to say; Tim Gunn is a born again virgin, as he hasn’t had sex in my entire lifetime, and then some. (CBS News)

I didn’t know it until right now, but I am a fan of fanged footwear. Big fan! (Too Fab)

Ugh. This has to be one of my biggest pet peeves. What the hell is “exhaustion” and how the hell do you treat it … besides taking a nap? Demi just tell us the truth. (Lainey Gossip)

Cynthia Nixon has gone bald for a new role on Broadway. And I’d say she’s pulling it off. Her head is nice and spherical (an underrated quality if you ask me). I feel bad for the baldies with ugly shaped skulls. (Just Jared)

Kardashian’s NOT going to college is supposed to be news? (Well technically they are Jenner’s) Awe naïve Bruce! Don’t worry; no one expected them to get in anyways. (Wonderwall)

HEADLINES: Tavi Calls Out Her Haters, Rihanna Returns to a ‘Hopeless Place’, and Shailene Woodley’s Footwear is Offensive.

This makes me sad. Rihanna and that turd who beat her have been secretly hooking up! Well, according to US Magazine, so take this with a grain of salt. Rihanna’s rep had no comment on the matter, however Chris Brown’s rep did. And while he did shoot down a romance, he confirmed the two are friendly. FRIENDLY? Why RiRi why? Have you seen the end of your “We Found Love” video? (Us Magazine)

So not only is she consciously choosing to date someone with the name Ned Rocknroll, she’s consciously choosing to dress like twinsies too? Come on, Kate. (Lainey Gossip)

Ugh. The hair is back! You’d think he’d have severe neck damage from constant whiplash by now. I mean this haircut is a liability in more ways than one. And don’t even talk to me about that jacket! I. CAN’T. DEAL. (Styleite)

Kate Hudson has replaced Demi Moore as the new face of Ann Taylor. Right, as if Kate Hudson would ever be caught dead wearing Ann Taylor. And poor Demi. As if she didn’t already feel old enough now that her zygote of a husband has left her. This, surely, won’t help. (The Cut)

Tavi Gevinson calls out her haters in an interview with BBC. And she does a pretty decent job! But it will never NOT creep me out hearing 15-year-old talk about ‘fetishization’. It just won’t. (Fashionista)

Damon Baker gives a revealing, yet juvenile, interview to Stylelist. The 20-year-old photographer could use some maturity lessons from Tavi. Anyway, my favourite part? When he says he met Andrej Pejic in a strip club – he was on the pole and Andrej was his audience! Juice! (Stylelist)

I always remained neutral when it came to Shailene Woodley; didn’t love her, didn’t hate her. But that girl just crossed me. Wearing these shoes, period, is unforgivable. Let alone to a Globes party. It’s a shame too; if she had better style we could’ve been friends. (In Style)
