Abbey Lee Kershaw - member of Our Mountain Kershaw plays tambourine in Our Mountain and allegedly also contributes keys and vocals. The band released theirdebut single "Wooden Hearts" in 2011 and appeared in Pierre Balmain's spring 2012 fashion film directed by Inez and Vinoodh.

Agyness Deyn - featured on "Who" by Five O'Clock Heroes The single wasn't very well received, to say the least -- though NME said it succinctly enough: "she sings on this and it’s shit." -- and peaked at #109 on the UK charts. But Deyn made somewhat of a comeback, providing the opening monologue to Rihanna's "We Found Love" video.

Baptiste Giabiconi - "One Night in Paradise" (2012) I guess we can consider Baptiste's brief dalliance with Katy Perry as a fact-finding mission as the male super is determined to get his music career off the ground. But while the video for the midtempo ballad "One Night in Paradise" -- off his debut album Oxygen -- has over 2 million views, it lacks the pizzazz of his magnum opus, "Showtime."

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy - Quelqu'un m'a dit (Someone Told Me) (2003) Before she became the First Lady of France, but after she had hung up her runway heels for good, Carla Bruni released Quelqu'un m'a dit. A huge hit in France where it debuted at number one and spent 37 non-consecutive weeks on the charts, "Le plus beau du quartier" was used in a 2006 H&M commercial and the title track appears on the soundtrack of (500) Days of Summer.

Karen Elson - The Ghost Who Walks (2010) Aside from having married -- and divorcing -- rock royalty in the form of Jack White, Elson has her own musical credentials on which to stand. A founding member of New York-based cabaret act The Citizen's Band, Elson released her White-produced solo album in 2010, The Ghost Who Walks, to positive reviews. The album's title track was released as a single and the accompanying video was also directed by White.

Milla Jovovich - The Divine Comedy (1994) Though best known today as an "actress," Jovovich was already a model veteran when she released her critically-acclaimed debut album in 1994. It didn't do so well commercially, but Jovovich continues to contribute songs to the soundtracks of her own films as well as others, such as 2003's Underworld.

Naomi Campbell - babywoman (1994) Naomi made her music video debut in 1978 when she appeared in the clip for Bob Marley's "Is This Love." She went on to appear in videos for Culture Club, Madonna, Michael Jackson and most famously George Michael. So naturally she decided to try her hand at a music career of her own with the critical and commercial failure, the horribly-titled babywoman. Peaking at #75 in her native UK, the album was a hit in Japan and went on to sell a million copies worldwide, producing the single and video "Love and Tears."

Nick Kamen - "Each Time You Break My Heart" (1986) Famous for stripping down to his undies in a classic Levi's ad in 1985, Kamen had a top 5 UK hit with "Each Time You Break My Heart," written and produced by Madonna and her frequent collaborator Stephen Bray. I'm sure the Material Girl's decision to get involved had nothing to do with the undies. What was inside of them, however...

Twiggy Twiggy has been steadily releasing albums since the 70s after she officially retired from modeling following an iconic four-year run. She released her latest album, Romantically Yours in 2011, a collection of her favorite tunes and standards such as "My Funny Valentine" and "Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered."

Tyra Banks - "Shake Ya Body" (2004) Banks -- a jill of many trades and a Harvard grad to boot -- couldn't quite master popstardom, though she tried her damndest with the Beyoncé-aping "Shake Ya Body." She also recorded a single with Kobe Bryant, "K.O.B.E.," which besides being an embarrassment for everyone involved, proved that not even two superstars can make one serviceable hit.

Anthony Gallo flexes his guns and brandishes one in Magdalene's "Nothing Personal," directed by Joe Lally. Also, check for a cameo by Sebastian Sauvé as the Angel of Death.

Holden Newell in Carly Rae Jepsen's piece of pop perfection and early contender for song of the summer, "Call Me Maybe."

Brazilian Evandro Soldati joins a bevy of shirtless, muscular and high-heeled dancers in Lady Gaga's "Alejandro," directed by Steven Klein.

Picking up where Gaga's stilettoed hoofers took off, Madonna ups the male model ante with not one but five hunks. Rob Evans, Simon Nessman, Jon Kortajarena, Sean O'Pry and Brad Alphonso lend their life forces to keep Madge feeling young in "Girl Gone Wild."

The Material Girl's backup dancers in "Girl Gone Wild" are none other than Ukrainian dance-pop outfit Kazazy, who're known for their immaculate collection of heels, moves and splits. Their video for "Love" shows them at their finest and hottest.

Katy Perry really knocked it outta the goddamn park with this one. The song and the model. "Teenage Dream" pretty much solidified her as a pop phenom while giving us loads of model Josh Kloss' rippling six pack for our viewing pleasure.

And then there's Katy Perry's former boytoy Baptiste Giabiconi, who decided to take the reigns and deliver his own music video, the brilliantly awful "Showtime."

French pop tart Anggun's "Echo (You & I)" was France's official selection for Eurovision 2012. So she wasn't about to half-step with the video which not only features model Yonathan Wangman among other delectable dudes, but costumes by Jean Paul Gaultier.

- Demi Moore may have been keeping a low profile after whipping it good, but this image from her latest Helena Rubenstein campaign could use a little more subtlety in the Photoshopping department. I mean, did they leave any of the poor woman’s skin in tact? [Telegraph]

- A day in the life of Karl Lagerfeld: wake up after exactly 7 hours of sleep, freebase Diet Coke all day, whitewash his hair, feed on some villagers and somewhere along the way he does his 12,000 little side projects. Repeat. [Harper's Bazaar]

- Alexander Wang was conspicuously absent from The Ethisphere Institute’s “World’s Most Ethical Companies,” though Gap, Target and L’Oréal made the list. [WWD]

- Adriana Lima confirmed today that she’s pregnant with her second child, meaning she’ll still be rockin’ her “bikini bod” well into her third trimester. Because that’s how fair life is. [People]

- Katy Perry and Baptiste Giabiconi are apparently still happening, despite no one actually caring or buying it for one second. It’s called commitment, kids. [The Cut]

Luckily this is all just for an editorial and has absolutely no resemblance to Karl Lagerfeld’s actual existence, which I think still takes place in a Transylvanian castle where even the most intrepid of travelers fear to tread.

Further proving my point, Uncle Karl’s take on grocery shopping: “It’s the first time I’ve stepped into a supermarket. It’s crazy — fascinating what one can buy. There’s enough here to easily gain 20 kilos.”

By someone used to getting his food mama-birded to him by Baptiste Giabiconi, food shopping would be an awkward experience. Much like driving: “I haven’t driven since I was 18, and that’s a benefit to society because I ended up in a ditch, without knowing why!”

To be fair, however, it was the 1800s and no one had invented paved roads yet. [WWD]

- Vogue Italia‘s “Haute Mess” editorial has been accused of being “insensitive and condescending towards low-income stereotypes.” Meanwhile, those low-income stereotypes have been setting trends for ages so the only insensitive thing is the lack of royalties. As a wise woman once said, “Show me the receipts.” [Refinery29]

- Take a walk in Kate Middleton‘s shoes when the Duchess of Cambridge‘s go-to supplier of sensible wedges, L.K. Bennett, opens its first store in New York. [Racked]

- How…reductive. Madonna recycled some unused “Vogue” footage, threw in top models Sean O’Pry and Jon Kortajarena making out over an apple, added Simon Nessman and Rob Evans to round out her cougar gang bang party and called it her “Girl Gone Wild” video.

- It’ll be a Black Swan sequel of sorts when Oscar-winning prima ballerina Natalie Portman reunites with her co-star/choreographer/baby daddy Benjamin Millepied and Rodarte’s Kate and Laura Mulleavy –  for the New York Ballet’s Spring 2012 Gala. [Elle]

- Marc Jacobs continues to generally not give a fuck. In a recently-released profile in Time, Jacobs addresses his controversial use of underage models, saying, “You have child actors and children who model for catalogs…What’s the difference between doing a commercial for peanut butter and being on a runway?” Well, less cocaine, for one. [The Cut]

Backstage at Parke and Ronen

While at Macy’s, the Chanel and Fendi designer extolled his love for department stores, claiming that he knows “everything” about them, particularly the American variety: “My name was made in America by department stores. I have a certain weakness for department stores.” As do I. Give me a one-stop shop so I can avoid being around people as much as possible, thank you and goodbye.

As for his collection, it’s apparently flying off the shelf– much like the Kaiser’s diffusion line for H&M. According to Terry Lundgren, big boss man of Macy’s, they were “blown away by the sell-throughs with Karl. Even before his p.a. [public appearance], we did more than $1 million in sales.”

What can I say, the kids love a high collar and a printed tee. [WWD]

For instance, Coco Rocha and Sean O’Pry dancing all over Venice for Americana Manhasset is 10 times more interesting than the ad itself.

The series stars Lagerfeld boytoy Baptiste Giabiconi, Anja Rubik, & Brad Kroenig. And if you think that this looks super familiar then you’re right. FashionIndie totally did this last month.

Keep reading for more photos

Born November 8,1989 in Marseilles, France, Baptiste was working at a helicopter plant with dreams of starting his own pizza delivery service. Four years later the only helicopter he sees probably took him to the French Riviera where he walked in Chanel Cruise 2012 wearing a turban and his usual Blue Steel-esque stare.

He’s currently the biggest male model on the planet thanks to backing from the Kaiser himself who considers Baptiste “a boy version of Gisele: skinny, skinny but with an athletic body — good for clothes and great with no clothes.”

And if that weren’t enough, according to his Models.com profile (where he’s currently ranked #1, naturally) when she met Baptiste in Moscow in 2009, Naomi Campbell told him, “It’s not right: We all have defects. You have none.”

But more than an obnoxiously pretty face, Baptiste is also an “actor” and burgeoning rock star. For proof of the former there’s Uncle Karl’s films for Magnum Ice Cream as well as The Tale of a Fairy, which debuted at Chanel’s resort show.

And for the latter, look no further than the epic video to his debut single, “Showtime,” literally the best video since…whatever video came directly before it:

Photos: Models.com, Homotography, YVY Mag

The film stars Chanel regulars Freja Beha Erichsen and Kristen McMenamy, confectionery boy-toy Baptiste Giabiconi, house ambassador Anna Mouglalis as well as a bevy of guest stars including Mark Vanderloo, Brad Koening, Amanda Harlech and Oriol Elcacho.

Lagerfeld “imagined,” wrote and directed The Tale of a Fairy about “an ill-advised use of money which begins with violence and ends with feeling.” A part of this feeling apparently involves Freja and Anna getting all sapphic in extreme close-up.

If you’re not lucky enough to be at the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc at the Cap d’Antibes on Monday for the Chanel Cruise show — my invitation to that show as well as the Met Gala and the Royal Wedding were clearly lost in the mail — the film will debut on chanel.com at 4 pm, EST. [Chanel]

- This is perhaps the creepiest and least delectable treat I’ve seen since Katy Perry‘s Candyland homage in “California Gurls”: Baptiste Giabiconi dipped in chocolate. The idea sounds delicious but the finished product makes me want to throw up (luckily, I already did that after lunch so I’m fine). Is it a statue, or is he crying for help under all those layers of chocolate? Either way, chocolate Baptiste looks sweetly sad. But after all, fame and fortune has a price and that price is clutching his chocolate-dipped hand. [Elle]

- Today in Douche: Alex Pettyfer and his gracious penis. The actor, best known for the cinematic tour de force Beastly starring one Ms. MK Olsen, has the words “thank you” tattooed above his phallus — as revealed in his VMAN cover story — in case he forgets to say it. So kind he is, but you don’t have to say “thank you” to your whores. Just leave the money on the dressing table, they’ll get the hint. [Refinery29]

- You too can snag a prince now that Charlotte Todd has recreated the now infamous dress that made William hot under the collar for Kate. Though you’re more likely to pick up a pimp than a prince wearing this piece of crap couture. [The Cut]

1. First of all, the film is for Magnum Ice Cream. That alone is reason enough to cast a shadow of incredulity a mile long. Coupled with the fact that Bilson is eating at a photoshoot, I nearly threw my computer out the window in righteous indignation. People have been fired for less.

2. Rachel Bilson’s wig. Bilson ordinarily stuns, but this awful, carrot-top wig makes her look like Lea Thompson circa Caroline in the City — dated and unwatchable.

3. Rachel Bilson’s hair under the wig. When Baptiste as the sunglasses-indoors-kind-of-guy photographer tells her to take off the wig, Bilson asks if her real hair is better. No. No, it’s not, Rachel Bilson. Because someone went a little cray-cray with the highlights.

4. Baptiste’s “acting.” Baptiste Giabiconi always struck me as kind of a douchebag. Don’t ask me why, he just gives off an air of douchebaggery, so playing a douchebag photographer should be right up his gorgeous alley. Granted it’s only a glorified commercial so he doesn’t need to display a range of emotions. But I would take any sort of emotion. At all.

5. The clothes. I mean, seriously, did the stylist dip a blind hand into the clearance bin of Forever 21 to pull out these gems? You got Karl Lagerfeld behind the lens but there’s nary a hairbow nor a tweed in sight. Plus this black negligee-esque number gives Bilson a muffin top. And that’s why you don’t eat at a photoshoot.

Check out Photo Mood for yourself and see if you’re left with a big fat WTF? afterwards like I was.

The Kaiser went on to croak Alt’s praises: “She’s a handsome French woman. She has a style, but is it enough to make a whole magazine?”

Well, it’s a valid question, one that Lagerfeld will surely answer in his usual straight-forward way, though he said he would “reserve judgement” until she spearheaded a few issues.

Karl Lagerfeld is great at many things, but reserving judgement?

How much longer do we have to wait before he declares French Vogue officially dead, has Baptiste Giabiconi steel away in the night to behead Emmanuelle Alt and use her Swarovski crystal-encrusted skull as the centerpiece for one of  Chanel‘s Resort collections?

Seriously, I’m taking bets.

Makeup. Then We Breakup. Again.

You know you need this. I love all these hats. Such a refreshing take on the fedora.

This dress is spectacular on Georgia May.

So 60's. I'm sure Karl just grabbed a photo of a friend from the era to create this look.

I Love Gold...

I love how involved Karl has become in all aspects of the Chanel cycle. The brand is fully his now and the work coming from the house is impeccable.

You can literally park a car between those things.

To say we love pervs would be an understatement. WE LIVE FOR PERVS. Here’s our list of our all time favorite naughty fashionites, who are infamous for their stylish perversions.

(In no particular order)

Terry Richardson. The Anything But Camera Shy Perv

To explain Terry’s perverseness to a non-fashion person, would be equal to trying to explain restraint to Peaches Geldof. Aside from being well known for great photos of young models naked, Terry tips the scales of pervyness by asking girls to call him “Uncle Terry” and breaking down the fourth wall by flipping the script and letting models shoot him, usually with his cock hanging out. Classic.

Recently several models have come out to say how they felt exploited by him. One even went on to say, “I can remember doing this stuff, but even at the time, it was sort of like watching someone else do it, someone who couldn’t possibly be me because I would never touch a creepy photographer’s penis.” Hater. Sounds like someone was angry they didn’t photoshop a little more cellulite of her ass and has sour grapes that Uncle Terry never called her back.

Karl Lagerfeld, The Creepy Old Man Perv

The bees knees at Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld has been the epitome of luxury since taking the reins at one of the industry’s most respected fashion houses. Of course, on the surface Kaiser Karl seems posh and prim with well suited attire but underneath lies a ragging sexual energy that at his age puts him in a category shared by that Uncle who insisted of having you sit on his lap when you were 9 and that creepy old pedophile from Family Guy, hmmmmmm.

When he’s not shooting photos of his lust interest Baptiste Giabiconi, Gramps is cruising the back pages of the Village Voice for male companions.  He recently went on the record with Vice Magazine and told the world how he enjoys the company of male escorts saying, “I don’t like sleeping with people I really love. I don’t want to sleep with them because sex cannot last but affection can last forever. I think this is healthy.” He continued by saying that he only has sex with “high-class escorts.”

Later in the interview, Lagerfeld revealed his views on the hierarchies of society: “For the way the rich live, [sex with escorts] is possible. But the other world, I think they need porn.”  And I think I need a shower [and a larger bank account].

Dov Charney, The All American Perv

The mustache behind American Apparel (more like American A-perv-al, hahaha, I crack myself up) is not only a fan of porn stars and barely dressed hipsters, but also of sexual harassment charges. Charney has been the subject of several lawsuits, none of which have been proven, by former employees who claim the Chief Erecting Officer has had his share of inappropriate office interactions.  With reports of touching himself during magazine interviews and running around his Los Angeles factories in his underwear, it’s no wonder that this demigod of hipsterdom will always make the list.

VIDEO: Dov Charney Makes Sharpies Sexy

Madonna, The Grandma Perv

Let’s be honest, Madonna has done it all, and we mean literally done it all. She came out with her now infamous “SEX” book which featured strong adult content and hardcore pornographic pictures. She had a three-way kiss with America’s then virginish Britney Spears. And she’s had more wide-loads down her vadge-pass than the Holland Tunnel.  But all in all, Madonna has reign the supreme bitch of perversion.

Currently, the queen of pop is dating a sexy, latin boytoy, Jesus Luz. While that in itself isn’t horrible, it’s a massive age difference between the two that really wins this Material Girl a spot on this list, cause Jesus is technically old enough to be Madge’s grandson. We’ve done the math.

Tom Ford, The “No Ones Complaining” Perv

He’s just too sexy. He can talk about dicks and sex all day long, pose nude and force random objects up models asses but there is not a person in the world who’d ever complain. By far the sexiest of the pervs, Tom Ford reigns supreme.

Olivier Zahm, The European Editor Perv

The editor of the border pushing Purple Magazine, Olivier counts Terry Richardson and Karl Lagerfeld as BFF’s. Him and Terry are often seen together at events and if you, like me, are addicted to Olivier’s diary you’d see daily updates of naked women, naked Olivier, and of course cute photos of his daughter.

Isabel Mastache, The “Is That A Banana In Your Pocket” Perv

The pants pictured above. Enough said.

Calvin Klein, The Perv Nothing Comes Between

From banned basement shots, to getting little kids in their underwear, to perverting the streets with people in acts of sexual throws, Calvin Klein has managed to keep things teetering on the border of perversion for decades.

This also the same mind behind a teenage Brooke Shields saying “Nothing come between me and my Calvin’s” in a very inappropriate, slightly statutory ad. His latest perversion includes ads featuring threesomes, a naked Eva Mendes, the bare backside of a oiled up ebony model, and Twilight’s Kellan Lutz and True Blood’s Mehcad Brooks wearing nothing but undies asking us if we want to see their dick!!! Not bad for one season of advertising.

Jane Aldridge & Bryan Boy, The Blogging Pervs

Daniel Saynt might enjoy promoting Fashion Porn to the masses, but two fashion bloggers bring it up a notch in naughtiness.

A self described “Dirty Old Man”, Jane may appear to be a sweet little Texan who loves shoes and raiding her momma’s closet, but deep down we know she’s got it in her to make this list. Her other, less known blog They Don’t Call Them Lovers In High School runs the gauntlet of perversion with photos of naked anime schoolgirls, full frontal crotch-shots, and of course, stuffed animals in inappropriate positions.

The Bobby Trendy of fashion blogging, Bryan Boy’s perversion knows few bounds. From listing “Anal Sex” as a favorite activity on Facebook to submitting photos of himself with his pants down to Style.com, Bryan Boy manages to remain perverted while rocking a killer set of heals. Recent updates on cruising Craigslist for casual encounters and hitting up Grindr for nightly interests, make this one blogger who’s not afraid to give it to us straight and for that reason we totally love him!!!

Lady Gaga, The Whole New Level Perv

In a matter of a year, Lady Gaga has reigned supreme as master of the next generation of pervs. She rarely wears pants, makes out with just about anyone, humps pool toys, dances around prison cells naked, claims to have sex with everyone she meets and will not stop until she’s on the ground, grinding to exhaustion.

Her latest video Telephoneis a nearly ten minute extravaganza in which she shows off her crotch, kisses some prison bull dikes, drives a “Pussy Wagon”, plays lesbian lover to Beyonce and finally dances around the dead bodies of her poisoned victims. LOVE IT!!! Just wish I was her next victim, this girl is like butter for a fat person, necessary in large amounts!!!

Lauren Sherman

Since we started FashionIndie.com back in 2006 we’ve been addicted to the rants and reviews on Fashionista.com, an online source of all things girlie in the world of fashion, and we’re not alone. With tens of thousands of daily visitors, the site has become a daily go-to for the best in fashion. 

Fashion Editor, Lauren Sherman talks to Fashion Indie about her typical day, tells us which model she’d do the nasty with, why she loves 13-year old blogger Tavi, and her thoughts on the future of Alexander McQueen.

What’s the day in the life of a Fashionista like?

Everyday is different, but generally, I get up in the morning, go to a breakfast meeting and make it into the office by 9.30 or 10. We (my co-editor Britt Aboutaleb and I) try to have a story up around 10am, post every half-hour until 6 or 7pm, unless there’s breaking news. It’s always a mix of breaking news, analysis on news and bigger features, like Q&As with designers or look book previews.

Would you consider yourself a blogger or an editor?

I’m a writer and an editor who happens to use a blogging tool to get my information out into the world. I don’t think there’s a difference anymore. At least with news sites.

What is the best advice you can give someone who wants to start a fashion blog?

Write about what you love–not about what you think other people want to hear about. If you don’t have a unique, fresh, sincere point of view, nobody’s going to care.

What are your thoughts on the new batch of “celebrity” fashion bloggers like Bryanboy and Tavi?

I think that they’re fantastic. They write essays on personal style–Bryan writes more in a memoir format–which is completely different from what we do, but just as relevant.

Bang, Kill or Marry; Cole Mohr, Jesus Luz, Baptiste Giabiconi…

- Baptiste Giabiconi Kill

What’s been the greatest thing to happen to you since becoming editors on the blog?

Just the fact that I love my job–that I feel fulfilled in my work–is the greatest thing. Not many people can say that.

Bang, Kill or Marry; Uggs, Snuggie, Crocs…

- Uggs Bang

- Snuggie Marry

We really loved your comments on McQueen and the progression of his line. If you had to pick a designer or team of designers to replace him who would you choose?

I really believe his design team should lead for a good while. It makes the most sense branding-wise and financially. However, in the future, someone like Pugh could be great. Or a total unknown from Central Saint Martin’s. It has to be someone with a unique vision that also understands McQueen’s vision.

If you had to blog on any other subject besides fashion what would you choose?

Hmm, my life has been all about fashion and writing about fashion since I was 11-years-old, so that’s hard. But I am really into product design.

Model Baptiste Giabiconi is working on an album, Jesus Luz style. According to  Giabiconi’s publicist, “Baptiste has a very busy schedule for the time being among the fashion shows, the preparation of his album and his strong involvement in the Association ‘Face au Monde’ he has no time off for the next few months.”

CALENDAR GUY: Karl Lagerfeld has done it again – produced a calendar for the Italian edition of Marie Claire, that is.

Reprising a project that debuted in 2009, the multi-tasking designer pointed his camera this time at two favorite subjects – actress and Chanel ambassador Anna Mouglalis and hunky model Baptiste Giabiconi – dressing them in a range of European cruise collections, a smattering of couture and a Fendi fur worn in Luchino Visconti’s “Conversation Piece” in 1974 and designed by – who else? – Lagerfeld.

The golden moments of Italian cinema are referenced across 25 pictures, with nods to the likes of Sophia Loren, Gina Lollobrigida and Marcello Mastroianni.

Thirty thousand copies of calendar, sold along with the January issue in deluxe packaging for 9.90 euros, hit Italian newsstands – and select bookstores abroad – on Dec. 16. (WWD)

Anna smolders in pictures that appear as scenes from a film noir……I love it.

I get that you’re looking to pursue new interests with your boy toy, but can you at least take the Hedi Slimane approach, keep them on your blog, and not throw them into magazines.

Karl Lagerfeld dresses (and undresses) his muse Baptiste Giabiconi on this peel-off cover of Wallpaper. Looking like a Karl impersonator in his slick suit, high white color and slim black tie it’s easy to see what the inspiration for this cover was. That being said, if Mr. Lagerfeld was the star we would probably not be taking Wallpaper up on their offer of a peel-off over. Luckily this is not the case, so ladies, peel away.
