Alexa Chung is quite an ambiguous person. She’s got her own MTV show, a gorgeous face and great style, but I don’t really know or understand WHO Chung really is. Is she a socialite? An actress? A model? Thanks to our friends at V Magazine, we’ll get a glimpse of a day-in-the-life of Chung and how her life in London differentiates from her life in New York. Besides a insider interview, V Mag #62 offers readers some awesome photos of the mystery girl! [Photographed by Sharif Hamza]

Thanks I Know What You Wore!

I have to admit; I was a bit saddened when some of my favorite collections and designers—such as Marc by Marc Jacobs and even Diane Von Furstenberg—showed pieces for Spring 2010 with heavy 80’s flash-back incorporated into them. I’ve never been a big fan of that era, so seeing shoulder pads being accepted as fashionable once again will take some getting used to.

Patterns you’ve really only seen in reruns of The Cosby Show have suddenly thrown themselves back into major fashion again, along with a kaleidoscope of colors. Beyonce even sported a dress at the MTV Video Music Awards that looked all too much like a dress Joan Collins once wore on the show Dynasty.

So, find your crimper and big, floppy bow and get ready to look like you stepped out of a classic John Hughes movie this upcoming spring.

Corey was snagged at Fashion Week to talk with MTV about Lady Gaga’s style. Check out the vid, and here’s his comment from the article:

Another Gaga fan, Corey Moran, said that Gaga’s fashion may push her out of the realm of a pop singer. “Her outfits were pretty good — I mean she is known for being crazy and everything, but for people who are not familiar with it she’s a little out of control,” he said. “She’s very avant-garde. I think she’s gonna develop into more of a fashion character than maybe even so much a music personality.”

I’m insane jealous considering I’m in Michigan and can’t go to Fashion Week, couldn’t go to the VMAs, and missed out on the Nylon and MTV interviews with the Indies recently. Way to go Corey!

Kanye strikes again, and as much as I hate him he is a bit smart.

We’ll start with what he did. Taylor Swift won an award at the VMA’s for best video. As she was giving her speech, Kanye jumped on stage, took the mic from the poor girl, and proceeded to say that it was terrible that Taylor won the award and that Beyonce had the best video of the year.

I’ll start off by saying thank you Kanye for letting us all know what you think, now if you could kindly sit down and shut your mouth that would be great. I will say however, with Kanye not being in the spotlight too much lately this really helps. He’s already a trending topic on Twitter, and you know he’ll be all over every gossip site in minutes.

So MTV has figured out how to replace Lauren Conrad. Her name is Jazmin, she has a fashion line, and she just might be the dumbest 20-year old in history.

Is it surprising to say that I have found myself staring in the face of disappointment once again? MTV has managed to ruin another underground celeb with their latest acqusition of Alexa Chung for the show It’s On With Alexa Chung. I’ve watched the show for the past three days, and while I remained optimistic for the first few episodes out of my pure love for the Brit, I am willing to fess up and say that it really isn’t a good show. While Miss Chung has managed to keep her style top notch, her awkwardness on camera really shines through.

I think the saddest part of the whole thing is that it is quite obvious that no one in the crowd has any idea who she is. There is a constant feeling that is easily relateable to that of an awkward silence. Her whitty English quips and comedy is often beyond the brain capacity of the puberty ridden teens that fill the bleacher style seats in their American Eagle, super boot cut, faded denim and their A&F hoodies.

While I’m on the topic of the jokes she is very poor at delievering, she clealry has the worst writers in television. It’s bad when you can tell that the host of the show doesn’t even think the jokes are funny. The way she painstakingly drudges through each joke is almost unbearable. It’s about time they fire all those lame high school interns and get some quality writing for the show (I think the genius minds behind Fashion Indie could do the trick…and we’re cheap!).

While the daily sight of Alexa Chung’s beauty gives me something to look forward to, and her guests aren’t half bad, I will say they need to do some damage control before this spirals beyond salvation. I recommend she keeps her Topshop name drops on the down low too! Us fashion folks don’t need to be stiff arming MTV douche bags in the store to get to the new collections that Topshop keeps conveniently tucked away in the back corner of the store.

Is she seriously wearing that?  Lets start with how rough her hair looks…you aren’t living in that small vampire town anymore, THIS IS AN AWARDS SHOW.  Second, that Spiderman dress…um…? Maybe it would’ve been okay if it wasn’t fire-engine red and didn’t have that weird belt around it.  Finally, Converse? really? I know that young Hollywood is trying to convince the world that they can wear Converse with their $5,000+ dresses because they’re “too good” for Hollywood and they’re “just like everyone else” even though they make millions doing who knows what, but really…THIS IS AN AWARDS SHOW, suck it up and put on some heels, or at least flats.  You won’t have many more chances to go to awards shows after people realize that your movies aren’t good, so you might as well take advantage of designers handing you anything you want while you still can.

I had to do some investigating to find out who this girl even is, or where this shoot came from. I guess I should’ve just Googled her, because apparently she’s a singer, and apparently she’s the one that sings “Google Me” (which I have actually heard, once?) She was also on MTV’s “My Super Sweet 16.”  She looks pretty fabulous, although I have no idea what’s going on with her eyelashes, are those fake? feathers? too much mascara?  I like all of the L.A-esque clothes, but not so much that she’s making the same face in every picture.

Bar Refaeli has confirmed with Time that she will be hosting the remake of MTV’s House of Style.

She seems to be quite the model of the moment right now, given her big Sports Illustrated cover. I still couldn’t pick her out of a line-up, though. Sorry, Leo.

How the hell does this promote AIDS awareness? Maybe I’m just dumb, but does anyone else understand this?

The New York Post is reporting that MTV’s House of Style will be returning to the airwaves.

They hope to recruit Bar Refaeli or Chanel Iman to fill Cindy Crawford’s chunky, early ’90s shoes.

Hm, wasn’t Cindy really the main reason people watched at first? I think I’d prefer if they re-ran those original episodes.

Oh, how pathetic 21st century television has become. I’ve always been slightly entertained by MTV’s True Life, simply because of the fact that people’s confessions/habits/professions on this show are, for the most part, ridiculous and bizarre. I mean come on, who wouldn’t waste an hour to watch True Life: My Roomate Prostitutes Herself for Watermelon Jolly Ranchers or True Life: I Am Deathly Afraid of Cotton Balls. Although these episodes are quite an exaggeration (or are they?), nine times out of ten, the show televises something humiliating and sad.

Thanks to an announcement released today by the New York Post, it is now advertised that the producers of True Life are looking for women who hate their boobs. Whether they are too small, too big, lopsided, deformed, what have you, the next episode on the list is True Life: I Don’t Like My Breasts. Honestly, if you were that insecure about your mosquito bites, then why on earth would you allow them to be examined, along with your psyche, on national television? The producers also stated that they aren’t looking for women who merely want breast implants, they are looking for people whose breasts are “keeping them from having the life they want.” Jeeze girls, there is really more to life than the joy of back pain by the time you are 50 or the ability to be motorboated. 

Thanks to the New York Post.

It looks like Whitney Port is packing up her bikini and taking to the streets of New York with her new spinoff of The Hills produced by MTV. The City, despite the fact that it is a spinoff, looks pretty serious to me. Crying models, backstabbing boyfriends, jealous acquaintances and workplace scandals are just some of the things the teaser shows will go down in the Big Apple. NY Mag made a pretty solid prediction as to what is going to happen by the looks of the trailer. If they are correct, it looks like I can graduate from the overdramatic Gossip Girl and start laughing my butt off at the ridiculous drama and seditious characters of The City…as long as Lauren Conrad’s ugly dresses aren’t worn on screen…

We don’t have an exact date for the premier of this show, but MTV claims The City will air sometime in the spring. In the meantime, I would love to see Comedy Central do a spinoff of their own called The Mountains: Spencer dies in a freak snowmobile accident, leaving Heidi stranded alone in a desolate log cabin without internet for online shopping. Whitney begins designing winter coats but Lauren refuses to do her PR work because she is too busy designing hideous dresses of her own. Audrina quits work at Epic Records and begins work as a zamboni driver at the local ice-skating rink, leaving her too poor to afford rent with Lauren. Then all the girls go on an epic journey to rescue Heidi but are killed in an avalanche. Now Heidi must fend for herself until the Teen Vogue comes to the rescue! Can she do it? Stay tuned. 

Thanks US Magazine!

Disappear Here, the “women’s magazine that appeals to men,” is the rag that Peaches Geldof was working on in her MTV show.  

It’s more than just a story line, I guess, because a limited-edition, mini preview issue of Disappear Here will be available for free Thursday in London and New York.  

Geldof says she finds the content of the Cosmos and Glamours of the world “patronising” and prefers men’s titles.  Staying away from the women-pleasing-men angle, she wants to focus on “music and fashion and film and art and all the tiny pieces of pop culture we love.”  She also wants the magazine to be a platform for up-and-coming talent.

I wonder if she stole any secrets from her time with Nylon?  

The full debut issue of Disappear Here will hit stands this March, with Peaches on board as Editor-at-Large.

Does the world need another fashion/music/art/culture magazine?  In an environment where print titles are folding, scaling back, losing sales, and cutting staff, how long before Disappear Here disappears?

Thanks, Catwalk Queen.

Christian Audgier had a party for his daughter’s sweet 16, and if you asked me I would have to say the theme was skank? I’m sorry but if I could prevent my 16 year old daughter from looking like this when the time comes that would be great. To top it off Miley Cyrus’ boyfriend was there hunting for some (possibly) virgin poon. He’s so creepy. The party will be featured on MTV as part of My Super Sweet Sixteen. I hope someone gave her a gift certificate to the clinic, because I have a feeling she’ll be pulling the Jamie Lynn Spears int he next year or so. I guess I can’t say I’m surprised though, her dad designs the international skank uniforms (Ed Hardy), so there’s no wonder she looks like this.

Nice shutter shades douche!

Thanks Just Jared.
