PHARRELL WILLIAMS: IT RUNS IN THE FAMILY

While paparazzi at the Kenzo menswear show in Paris were focused on Kanye West and Julia Fox in their denim outfits, we zeroed in on THIS denim family. Pharrell Williams never disappoints with his style, but it’s rare to find a whole family that looks good. Pharrell and his wife Helen Lasichanh have always had their separate but equally fashionable looks and it turns out their son Rocket inherited his parents’ love of subtle but stylish dressing. The family is not often photographed together because Helen likes to keep their lives private. SO private that she gave birth to triplets in 2017, and we STILL don’t know the sex or names of the kids!

SCIENTOLOGY GOING TO COURT: IT’S ABOUT TIME!

SO happy to hear that the “Church” of scientology lost an important court battle that they expected to win. The three women who filed rape charges against That 70’s Show star (and longtime scientologist) Danny Masterson, said they were stalked and harassed by the church after they filed the police report. The girls filed suit against the church, accusing it of surveilling them, hacking into their security systems, filming them, threatening to kill their pets (!), setting fires outside their homes, and posting fake sex ads supposedly from the girls, offering free sex to strangers. The church denied everything and insisted they could handle the problem “internally” citing religious arbitration. They almost got their way, but a panel of judges just decided the cases CAN move forward in a court of law! Hopefully, scientology leaders will be dragged into court!

ROCK ROYALTY SONS INVADING THE WORLD OF FASHION

European menswear designers are using a lot of celebrity kids as models to liven up their shows and if they’re not on the runway, they are front row fixtures.Two regulars, above, are old pals Kailand Morris, 20, (he’s Stevie Wonder’s son) and Mick Jagger’s son Lucas Jagger, 22. Lucas’s mom is Brazilian model Luciana Gimenez– her affair with Mick Jagger broke up his marriage to Jerry Hall. Lucas is following in his model mom’s footsteps. Kailand (left) models too, but he also interned at Dior and is on his way to becoming a fashion designer. LOVE that zoot suit…

BILLY IDOL GETS SENTIMENTAL

Billy Idol posted this cute photo on Instagram (left) of himself with Debbie Harry that was taken WAAAAY back in the late 1970’s. They both look so young and earnest- and went on to become HUGE singing stars. Time flies. The most recent pic we could find of them together again was from 2014. As far as we know, they never performed together in concert, but they should have…

J BALVIN SHOWS HIS LOVE FOR FASHION IN A SKIRT

The late Virgil Abloh’s LAST collection (Fall 2022 menswear) for Louis Vuitton was shown in Paris and it was a BIG deal. It attracted quite a crowd- including Tyler the Creator, Venus Williams, Naomi Campbell, – and fun loving rapper/singer J Balvin. The Colombian heartthrob courageously promoted one of Vuitton’s biggest skirts for men. It’s a “puffer skirt (like the ski jacket fabric) and he wore it with masculine steel toe boots and a black shirt and blazer. Balvin has confessed that he loves fashion as much as he loves music, and it shows.

HEY, MACHINE GUN KELLY – HOW ABOUT A KISS?

Last October, Angelina Jolie showed up at the premier of The Eternals wearing a gold metal band that connected her lower lip to her chin. It was NOT a dental appliance. No one had seen such a piece of jewelry before and universally wondered if she could speak normally or drink or eat while wearing the thing. Turns out it’s called a custom lip cuff and was made by Nina Berenato, a jeweler in Austin. Machine Gun Kelly was the next to show up in a lip cuff – and his was considerably more extravagant and featured Dolce & Gabbana’s initials. We STILL don’t know if he can talk or eat while wearing this silly thing…but at least it’s removable.

IS HER BOYFRIEND SAM BEHIND BRITNEY’S ANGRY TIRADE?

We can’t help but wonder what is going on in the head of Britney Spears’ ambitious boyfriend Sam Asghari while all this family drama is escalating. Britney seems infuriated with her entire family and continues to trade snipes with her sister online. She says she plans to sue the pants off her father for mishandling her conservatorship and also threatened to sue her sister if she talks about Britney while being interviewed about the book she wrote (that Britney hates.) Britney has distanced herself from her entire family- Sam is the only one left. Is he ENCOURAGING Britney to call out family members? (to have her all to himself, perhaps) Or is he terrified by her extreme and angry behavior? Does HE want to be in charge of her unpredictable life? Time will tell…

SPEND A PRICEY WEEKEND WITH ADELE

Brace yourself for some PAINFUL ticket prices. Adele is appearing at the Caesar’s Palace Colosseum starting on January 21 thru April 16 and she’s doing two shows per weekend. The singer, who’s already worth 220 million,(and complained that it’s too expensive to live in London) is expected to earn $680,000 PER NIGHT! Not including the sales of Adele t-shirts and merchandise, of course. Superfans can buy a “Weekend with Adele” (including two shows and a hotel room) for from $952 to $12,244 for the best seats. Regular concert tickets START at $400. To put this in perspective, Britney Spears took home $475,00 per night in Las Vegas. Is Adele the highest paid singer in the world? She’s the female Frank Sinatra…

ARE MEN SEEKING FASHION INSPIRATION FROM KANYE WEST ?

We’ve been observing Kanye West’s humongous boots for the last few weeks and trying to figure them out. First of all, they are big and ugly and totally inappropriate for the places Kanye has been frequenting. They are fisherman’s boots or maybe for lobstermen, but absurdly clunky and unsuitable for Malibu or NYC. (Or date nights, for that matter) One visible label said Red Wing (it’s a work boot company) but Balenciaga featured a similarly awkward big boot in their collection. The boots DO support the illusion that the wearer is a hard worker. Apparently a lot of guys actually want to look like Kanye and variations of work boots are selling like hotcakes.

IS THIS THE FUTURE OF MEN’S FASHION?

Look what the pandemic and the devastating weather changes have done to the world of fashion! It’s a battle just staying alive these days and menswear designer Justin Gall (he’s new to us!) is ready to take on the challenges of the modern world. Gall’s collections have a dystopian theme – his clothes are described as protective gear for harsh times. In other words SURVIVAL. His show in Milan this week featured comfortable, functional fabrics made to LAST, with a slightly military feel. Some of the ensembles even have detachable arm and leg units. Gall, an American graphic artist, dyes and paints his own fabrics. (Kanye’s going to be jealous!) Gall’s collection is worth a look!
