MIGUEL: IT’S NOT WHAT YOU THINK


R&B singer Miguel looks perfectly normal (and hot) walking down the street in LA with his metal briefcase in hand. (what’s IN there?) As he turned to get into his car however, we see bullet holes and dripping blood printed on the back of his shirt. Very clever! It so happens Miguel started designing two years ago with a collection of “sustainable fashion” available online. Looks like he has a whimsical sense of humor when it comes to style…

HAILEY BIEBER: IT’S AN L.A.THING

Men usually do this more than women, and it happens more often in Los Angeles. Hailey Bieber is dressed for winter from the waist up and summer from the waist down. She’s wearing a thick fleece jacket with biker shorts – oblivious to the fact that the temperature in West Hollywood is unusually brisk- in the 50’s. maybe that’s why she needed the hot coffee…

QUEEN LATIFAH: DRESSED TO KILL!

No way could we ever imagine Queen Latifah’s no-nonsense Robyn McCall character on The Equalizer wearing THIS, but Latifah seems quite happy about it. Is she having a GONE With The Wind moment? There is a strong reminder of a vintage bed-skirt here. Latifah wore this amusing but inexplicable outfit to Byron Allen’s new GRIO First Annual Award Show celebrating his African- American oriented news website.

JOEL McHALE: WORKING OUT TOO MUCH?

Joel McHale (The Soup and Community) LOVES Sundays, because almost every Sunday morning he can be found at the Hollywood Farmer’s Market stocking up on fruits and vegetables. He doesn’t mind wearing a mask because he can shop almost unrecognized – except for one eagle-eyed paparazzi who keeps his distance. Joel almost always shops alone and knows what he wants- note his little cart for bags and his orange cooler bag. The 6’4″ actor/comedian says he works out almost every day and usually wears tight tee shirts – maybe this one’s a little TOO tight!

CARDI B: CAN FASHION CAUSE A TRAFFIC JAM?

Cardi B is not one of those celebrities that welcome the anonymity of wearing a mask. She LOVES attention, especially when it involves fashion. Imagine the shocked looks on Rodeo Drive this weekend when Cardi went shopping with her husband Offset looking like THIS! Observers couldn’t decide if she was nude – or was it an optical illusion? Actually the futuristic dress involves a lot of layers and not a lot of nudity. Eccentric designer Pierre-Louis Auvray must be delighted by the reaction to his bizarre creation.

RICH PEOPLE WEAR THE DARNDEST THINGS

So here’s Simon Cowell at the casual Malibu Chili Cook-off wearing EXACTLY the same thing from head to toe that he wears on all his TV shows. A black or white t -shirt, those baggy boot-cut jeans, and pointy cowboy boots. The boots ($1000 a pair custom made by Berluti in Paris) have cuban heels and are built up inside to add three inches to his 5’7” height. So he can NEVER take them off without revealing his real height. The pants are deliberately long and wide to conceal his footwear. Simon is extremely wealthy – so why the unbearably monotonous wardrobe?

CATE BLANCHETT IN HER SCHIZOPHRENIC SUIT

This is a fun look – especially when you’re promoting a movie about an eccentric woman who disappears. Cate Blanchett is at the New York premier of her new film Where’d You Go, Bernadette? and stands out in the crowd . The over-the-top puffy blue satin sleeves (very Dynasty) with the conservative navy suit is quite eye-catching. Definitely an outfit you can only wear once, but oddly appropriate for this occasion…

CELINE DION’S PERSONAL FASHION SHOW

It’s Paris Couture Week again, and that means Celine Dion is likely to show up with her stylist and trunks full of outrageous and slightly goofy fashions. Celine is photographed in a different outfit every time she walks out of her fancy Paris hotel, which is several times a day. Perhaps she is being paid for this highly photogenic fashion display. (We wish Celine would bring her hair stylist along to Paris, because that tight bun is not particularly flattering to her slender face.) Today she’s wearing a navy and white jacket with a fluffy yellow mini skirt and custom three tone shoes. Celine’s timing is perfect – she’s also in the middle of her European tour.

KENDALL JENNER KNOWS WHERE HER MONEY IS

Leave it to Kendall Jenner to be the first to sport a new style. She dashed out to a Paris supermarket wearing this black strappy thing over her t-shirt. At a glance, it appears that she’s strapped into a back brace like some UPS drivers wear. If you look closely you can see a Prada label on a small zipper shoulder bag on her chest. Is this a combination back brace and crossbody bag? A moneybelt? Or a wraparound the stomach hands-free bag…You be the judge
