- TIME Magazine decided to place a mom breastfeeding her three-year-old son on its cover to illustrate its story on “attachment parenting.” Meanwhile, showing Kris Jenner and her Kardashian klan would’ve had the same (nauseating) effect. [Huff Po]
- The Olympics really takes the lighting of the Olympic torch super serial. So serial in fact, there were men wearing pleated skirts. [Styleite]
- This is Tom Cruise — and his Photoshopped abs — posing with models Abbey Lee Kershaw and Edita Vilkeviciute on the June cover of W Magazine. Aside from making everyone uncomfortable, Suri‘s dad is promoting his new film, Rock of Ages. [Fashion Gone Rogue]

Christie Brinkley was Billy Joel‘s “Uptown Girl.” Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington helped George Michael declare his “Freedom.” And Helena Christensen played Chris Isaak‘s “Wicked Game,” as directed by the legendary Herb Ritts. Models have been appearing in music videos nearly as long as the form has been alive, lest we forget Calvin Klein brief-fillers Djimon Hounsou and Antonio Sabato, Jr. in Janet Jackson‘s “Love Will Never Do (Without You),” also directed by Ritts. So in honor of our May month of music, Male Model Humpday takes a look at the hunky men making beautiful music…videos.

- Taiwan’s Eva Airlines allows you to fly in style, that is if you have the style of a 13-year-old Japanese schoolgirl. Eva’s line of Hello Kitty-branded airplanes is basically JetBlue on a potent combination of acid, ketamine and adorable. [Buzzfeed]

- Just when you thought all the fashion house musical chairs was over, Alistair Carr has left his post as design director of Pringle of Scotland. I guess once he popped he could stop…I know, I know, it’s cheap but c’mon it’s Friday. [Telegraph]
- Glamour UK named Kristen Stewart the best dressed woman of 2012 after every other woman apparently fell off the face of the earth. Clearly Twilight fever has yet to die a merciful death as her shaggy co-star Robert Pattinson was named best dressed man. [Glamour UK]

- Tyra Banks addressed the recent mass firing on America’s Next Top Model saying that they’ve “reached a point where we feel that the show just needs a new boost.” Yeah, and that boost was called André Leon Talley, after which Top Model should’ve smized its last smize and hunched into obscurity. [The Cut]
- Now that motherhood has her feeling “more beautiful than…ever,” People has acknowledged Beyoncé’s newfound hubris by naming her the “World’s Most Beautiful Woman.” It also didn’t hurt that she’s back to her pre-baby weight. I guess taking that cushion out from under her Dereon was a laborious process. #Kidding #NotReally [People]
