LOVE that pantsuit. Even though everyone is over Cassie’s half-shaved head, I honestly think she looked awesome at the premier of the September Issue. Hate away.

Many of you have shaved half your head (Corey), but not as many of you have kept it interesting past that point…Cassie here is sporting a bun and a pompadour on the other side, how awesome?!?!

Louis Vuitton Celebrates Man on the Moon

Some expeditions are so rare and fantastic that they merit a huge celebration forty years later—as was the case for last night’s Louis Vuitton party honoring Buzz Aldrin (above left) and the first successful voyage of man onto the moon. My own expedition—across the park to the Upper West Side to the Museum of Natural History—was decidedly less buzz-worthy, but I can almost guarantee my destination was more fashionable than Neil Armstrong’s forty years ago.
Because Louis Vuitton is one of the few luxury brands surviving—and thriving—during the recession, it is to be expected that they throw over-the-top, lavish parties that compete with the bacchanals of ancient Rome—after all, who’s left to do it?
I arrived early and the atmosphere outside was unexpectedly calm—no ravenous party crashers frothing at the mouth for their free Moët. Usually I walk the step-and-repeats, but I took one look at the gigantic carpet with a cluster of video crews at the end and decided to pass. I imagined later that it would have been one small step for me, and one giant rattling of my fragile nerves.
Downstairs was still mostly empty and so the full selection of hors d’oeuvres could be enjoyed without the terrible despair that ensues after you trail one of those handsome cater waiters, only to find that their silver platter has been pillaged. Food, however, lost all value when I spotted Bill Cunningham in his signature blue windbreaker, darting rapidly around the room with his camera like a lone ranger. I positioned myself strategically and waited. Sure enough, my outfit was blessed with Mr. Cunningham’s approval in the form of a few camera flashes and I quietly checked off another achieved goal on the running list I keep in my mind.
The first celebrity I spotted was Cassie—immediately recognizable by her half-shaved head, which on one side makes her look like a glamorous goddess and on the other, like a Thai lady-boy. I assumed from the star shape etched into Cassie’s bald side that she was she was celebrating the celestial occasion in her own special way.
Shortly after, Whitney Port arrived. Almost immediately, a steady stream of strangers approached Whitney—all wanting a piece of the reality star. I was guilty of this as well—but at least I was fabulously dressed, so it was excusable in my mind. I went up to the delightful Ms. Port, who’s bubbly and beautiful in person. I asked if she ever had dreams of being an astronaut while growing up.
“You know, I think everyone somehow thinks in one way or another that being an astronaut is so whimsical and amazing, but I don’t know, after fourth grade, learning about the whole solar system and doing a report on Venus, I was fine just settling with that.”
I couldn’t bait her on what she’d do if she were locked in a space shuttle with her City
co-star, Olivia Palermo. “I’d make it work,” she said. “I’m not like that; I’m not territorial.”
The most interesting interaction that night I had observed was not Buzz with the president of Louis Vuitton North America on the grand staircase, but rather between Whitney and Jessica Szhor (Gossip Girl) when the latter had arrived. Despite having ostensibly never met before, Jessica made her way over to Whitney and introduced herself. It made me wonder whether the famous share some sort of supernatural bond with one another.
Jessica was wearing Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 shoes—the ones with the sky-high crazy heel that looks like an hourglass—and that, come to think of it, wouldn’t look out of place as moon shoes. I posed the same question to her.
“I think I was always a little bit too scared of what would happen, but I think it would be amazing to go to the moon and that’s the one place I’d want to go to that’s crazy and far away because people have made it back.”
“If you could go to the moon, who would you take with you?” I asked her. “My mamacita!” she cooed.

THE TEN + TEN: Annoying Celebrity Hairstyles
Hillary Frazier, Style Editor June 18 at 3:36
Read More:adam lambert, Agyness Deyn, alice dellal, Amber Rose, Amy Winehouse, betsey johnson, billy ray cyrus, brett michaels, carmen electra, carrot top, Cassie, Cindy Crawford, donald trump, jennifer lopez, Jethro Cave, kate goesslin, kate hudson, katie holmes, katy perry, Megan Fox, Rihanna, Robert Pattinson, sarah jessica parker, victoria beckham, Zac Efron
This list was too big for just ten. Here’s 20 celebrity hairstyles that just bother us.
1. Kate Goesslin- I’m not really sure what she’s thinking with that little spike in the back. I mean, I know that it’s “her thing” but…why would you want that to be your thing?
2. Cassie/Carmen Electra/Amber Rose/Alice Dellal- Shaved heads on girls = not good, unless you’re a punk, which clearly, none of these girls are.
3. Billy Ray Cyrus- This is better than the Achey Breaky mullet, but the whole surfer/highlights thing is trying a little too hard for a 47-year-old dad.
4. Donald Trump- I don’t even know what is going on. How does he even get his hair like that?
5. Amy Winehouse- The beehive was cool for like, a day, but as soon as Wino started falling apart, so did her hive.
6. Megan Fox at the MTV awards- I don’t even need to talk about this…this makes her head look so oddly shaped, it makes me laugh.
7. Agyness Deyn- Sometimes I really like Aggy’s hair, sometimes I don’t. This looks a little Warhol, back to the drawing board for this mop-top
8. Carrot Top- I know it’s natural, but this is a little too carrot-y and disheveled. And wtf is up with his eyebrows?
9. Celebrity sons that look like daughters- Cindy Crawford’s son is literally the most beautiful kid I’ve ever seen, but his hair makes him look like a girl. Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker’s sons also look like they could be daughters. Haircuts, please.
10. Betsey Johnson- I love her designs, but have always hated her hair.
11. Robert Pattinson- Not my choice, I love him and his crazy hair, but I do agree, it’s a little too talked about.
12. Rihanna- Time for a new hairstyle, please. I still like it, I always liked it, but it’s getting old.
13. Victoria Beckham- She pioneered the bob, but that was years ago.
14. Katie Holmes- Same story as the two above. Moving on.
15. Zac Efron- The surf look is a little too grown out for Zefron, just a little bit shorter, please.
16. Brett Michaels- I’m not sure what bothers me more, the fact that Brett Michael’s lips look like a woman, or that I can’t wear a headband or scarf around my head without being called Brett Michaels.
17. Jethro Cave- Just a little too over the top. Corey, please don’t do this with your hair
18. Katy Perry- I loved Katy Perry’s hair long and curled. Grow it back out!
19. Adam Lambert- I know he’s trying to be the epitome of a ‘rock star,’ but scene kid hair is very 2006. He probably takes longer to straighten and tease his hair than I do to shower and put on a full face of makeup.
20. J.Lo- Everyone’s saying it’s a wig, what do you think?
I’m prepared for the hate comments. Anyone you think we missed?
BASH Things We Hate More Than Twilight
Daniel Saynt, Editor-In-Chief June 1 at 2:58
Read More:Cassie, heidi montag, jon, jon & kate, Rihanna, Robert Pattinson, Susan Boyle, the montag monster, Twilight, Vanessa Hudgens, Zac Efron
1. Twilight New Moon. Yes, we hate Twilight New Moon more than Twilight. How can we come to this realization without actually seeing the movie? Because we just saw the preview and that living Troll doll Kristen Stewart is still in it. Even worse, there are now bad CGI werewolves. So basically this movie is a teener-bopper version of Underworld without hotties like Kate Beckinsale in it to make it bearable to watch. Worse of all it will probably make a load of money making Robert Pattinson the richest twink in the world. For shame…
2. Robert Pattinson. Do you really have to ask why?
3. Jon & Kate Plus Eight. Wait, people actually waste their time watching a chick with bad hair and a dude with a bald spot deal with their 8 brats? How in the fluck is the entertainment?!? I mean, if there was at least a creepy uncle/priest or a recent sex offender released in their neighborhood, there might be some entertainment value as they freak the fuck out everytime one of their kids goes missing, but I just watched an episode and they basically spend their time playing at the park. Really people? I’d question anyone who watches this show who isn’t a midwest wife with no life. Seriously, there’s something completely wrong with you if you find this entertaining. It literally defines you as someone who is (a) desperate for children, (b) can’t stand your own kids or (c) derive pleasure from watching other peoples kids. All of them are pretty bad, so please just stop.
4. Beth Ditto. I imagine her smelling really, really bad. Does that make me a fatist? Maybe, but the chick insists on a diet that consists of processed deli meats, McDonald’s french fries, and hairy fish tacos. Probably gonna get hate mail for this, but can we get a slightly thinner/less vomit enducing fat style icon?
5. MTV 2009 Movie Awards. For being Twilight’s bitch.
6. Bust-a-Nut Facials. For $250 this salon in NYC will rub sperm on your face. Currently wondering if they accept donations.
7. College Musical. You know it’s coming. Expect Efron to “experiment”.
8. “Accidentally” Leaked Celebrity Nude Photos. Rihanna, Cassie, Vanessa Hudgens. We get that is sucks that your boyfriend beats you/is old enough to be your dad/doesn’t know you exist but that’s no reason to go around taking badly lit naked photos of yourself. Jebus, ladies have some self respect and call Hefner. At least he’d pay you for shots of your no-no zone.
9. Susan Boyle. Wow, talk about a total let down. The hottest woman on Youtube lost to a group of Jabberwocky biters.
10. The Montag Monster. Another genetically altered mutant freak washed up on the shores of the Hamptons only this time it wants you to buy it’s album on iTunes.
Cassie and Diddy Sex Tape?
Daniel Saynt, Editor-In-Chief October 2 at 1:23
Read More:Cassie, diddy, muppets, sarah palin
Nah, just joking. It’s just the closest thing we’ll ever see to it.
Diddy attempts to take us back to the late nineties with his horrible Blair Witch impersonation. The mogul figured he’d share with all of us his “fear” of Sarah Palin by reenacting his favorite scene from the overhyped shaky camera shitfest. Seriously dude, I’m more scared of the fact that you think it’s right to subject your minions to such an over remixed pop reference. You couldn’t do a Cloverfield-stye video and have Sarah Palin step in for the monster terrorizing New York. Or at least a Saw-reference as that’s the only “scary” movie that has had some staying power.
Poor attempt at parody dude, and where the hell is Cassie? If I was marrying an MySpace hip hop hottie I wouldn’t be alone in my bed diddling with my Final Cut Pro, if you know what I mean.
Plus dude, the Muppets did it better…
