FASHION FATIGUE. The international AW13 MBFW carousel this week hits Stockholm. Highlights include Whyred (tonight) and Tiger (tomorrow’s finale). Last season’s highlight included GAGA visiting the closing party (she felt relevant at the time…).

WARDEROBE MALFUNCTION? “Poor Jennifer Lawrence”, people thought, when her Dior gown “ripped” at the Screen Actor’s Guild Awards. It’s all in the design, darling.
HYPOCRITE MUCH? The Boy Scouts of America are lifting the gay ban on scouts. We guess it was always acceptable for leaders?
TRANSTASTIC. Benetton’s Unhate message continues featuring trans supermodel Lea T among others in the colourful SS13 campaign.

LEAVE BEYONCE ALONE. Gorgeois Aussie pop star Sam Sparro parafrases Chris Crockers imfamous Leave Britney Alone-video, touching on the Beyonce lip-synch debaucle. A lip-read parody has also surfaced.
IMAGE ISSUES. Perhaps worse than JLo’s shameful Fiat endorsement, Rihanna now “designs” a “casual chic” line for high street brand River Island. In related news, her misogynic on-off boyfriend Chris Brown, still has anger management issues.
