WHO CAME FIRST? LIL’ KIM OR RODRIGO ALVES?

Seeing Lil’ Kim at the BET Awards last night reminded us that she has a lookalike. Actually a blonde lookalike. It’s Rodrigo Alves. Remember the guy who had all that plastic surgery to look like what he thought was the ideal man? Last year Rodrigo decided he’s rather be a girl and he had a whole lot MORE plastic surgery to feminize his looks. Maybe he was a huge fan of Lil Kim because there IS a strong resemblance in a blonde sort of way…

LIL NAS X STOLE THE SHOW AT THE BET AWARDS

Step aside Cardi B, Lil Nas X is determined to outshine you in the fashion department! Nas wore TWO dazzling red carpet outfits at the BET Awards to maximize his attention. This is our favorite – it comes straight from the runway of Italian designer Andrea Grossi’s collection. Of course it was custom made to fit Nas. The “gender fluid” outfit consists of suspenders, a corset, jacket, and – we’re not sure if that is a skirt or very wide pants. As if that wasn’t enough- Nas performed his latest hit Montero onstage and ended the song by planting a big juicy kiss on a male dancer!

ZACHERY TY BRYAN: ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT VIA BETTY FORD

Zachery Ty Bryan (He played Tim Allen’s oldest son on Home Improvement) was arrested last October for domestic violence (menacing and assault) when he attempted to strangle his girlfriend in Eugene, Oregon. Neighbors called police when they heard the loud physical dispute. Considering the charges, he got off easy (maybe helped by Covid) with 36 months of probation with multiple conditions. One of the conditions was a batterers intervention program and we’re guessing another was rehab. He quietly checked into Betty Ford in Palm Desert recently for substance abuse.

CHET HANKS: “I’M THE BLACK SHEEP OF THE FAMILY”

Musician/actor Chet Hanks is the first to admit that his father Tom Hanks’ clean cut image makes him look like a bad boy. Chet, 30, started off rapping at Northwestern University where he was actually in a fraternity. Besides music, he’s been getting steady work as an actor, with recurring roles on Empire and Shameless. He struggled with substance abuse and in 2015 he broke down and went to rehab for cocaine addiction. He’s had his share of girlfriend problems- involving restraining orders, lawsuits etc, so he’s definitely no Tom Hanks. But he’s been getting acting work – NCIS: New Orleans, and has a role in Tom’s film Greyhound. Above he showed up at Doja Cat’s album release party in Hollywood.

DIOR X TRAVIS SCOTT IS ROCKING PARIS FASHION WEEK

Travis Scott is creating quite a stir in Paris – the fashion show presenting his collaboration with Dior (Dior X Travis Scott) was the hottest ticket in town Friday. The clothes were surprisingly sophisticated and varied – some of the suits actually LOOKED like Travis would wear them. There was also some unique chain jewelry. Certainly Dior designer Kim Jones did most of the work, but Travis was well represented. That’s more than you can say for Drake and Justin Bieber – their fashion collections are very ordinary hoodies, t-shirts, and sneakers…

JW ANDERSON WANTS MEN TO LOOK LIKE THIS

Okay, now we’re on to Paris Fashion Week and it is evident that men have lot to look forward to! JW Anderson is an established designer who has already earned Designer of the Year awards for both his men’s and women’s fashions in the UK. The label is a favorite of rappers, but we cannot picture Travis Scott or ASAP Rocky in THIS outfit. What was JW thinking?

THE SUMMER 2022 LOOK FOR MEN

This outfit for MEN was featured at the Milan spring/Summer 2022 show this week and believe it or not, it’s FENDI! Usually, strange designs like this come from young up and coming fearless designers who want to be noticed and have nothing to lose. You can’t picture a customer actually buying it. But it’s Fendi! Can you imagine anyone having the courage to wear this? At least the model doesn’t have a beard…

BRITNEY SPEARS NEEDS SOMEONE TO WATCH OVER HER- AND HER BOYFRIEND

This is the mob scene outside the LA Supreme Court building where Britney Spears’ conservatorship hearing is taking place. It’s shocking that so many people are intensely interested in the situation. Certainly MOST INTERESTED OF ALL is Britney’s 26 year old handsome boyfriend Sam Asghari, who doesn’t get along with Britney’s dad. Britney and Sam met 5 years ago when he appeared in her Slumber Party video. She fell for the personal trainer hook line and sinker, and they’ve been inseparable ever since. We get the feeling Sam is eager to marry Britney ASAP and take control of her life, if her father Jamie ever steps away from the conservatorship. Don’t think that’s a good thing. Remember, Britney was judged incapable of raising her own two sons…

SIMON COWELL AND HIS HIGH HEEL SNEAKERS

Interesting to see that Simon Cowell has joined Tom Cruise in the built-up sneakers club. Okay, we’re a little obsessed by male celebrities who wear lifts in their shoes. But it IS a fascinating subject. We are very familiar with Simon’s cowboy boots with heels and lifts inside, but we hadn’t noticed his elevator sneakers. Sylvester Stallone was the FIRST celebrity we encountered who had lifts in his custom sneakers back in the 80’s. He may have even been the FIRST ever to do it. (He was also furious when we wrote about it!) Since then, male celebrities have them custom made quite frequently. Simon wore his for a charity walk he went on with Lauren Silverman – they raised money for Shooting Star Children’s Hospices in the UK. A nice gesture…

A RARE SIGHTING: JUSTIN BIEBER IN A SUIT!

It’s amazing that Justin Bieber met with French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte in Paris (for some unknown reason) and he did NOT wear his usual uniform – a Drew (his own label) hoodie and sweatpants. These pics would have been a nice advertisement for his brand, but Justin opted for a suit. How long has it been since we saw him in a SUIT? We could have done without those big ugly sneakers, but let’s face it- all eyes were upon Hailey Bieber anyway. Justin IS French-Canadian, so maybe he spoke French with the President. SO glad he chopped off those awful dreadlocks/braids before he went to France…
