The Ultimate Label Queen

You're not the Ultimate Label Queen until you own Fendi bedsheet, 300 thread count in signature Zucca pattern. It goes very well with your new $9,450 "Spy" bag.

Oh my Lourdes...

Madonna's children Rocco and Lourdes have decorated handbags for fashion house "Celine" that will be auctioned off for charity next month. The fashion company asked 19 celebrities' kids to customise its canvas Poulbot bag. The proceeds from the sale will go to actress/singer Vanessa Paradis' charity "Reves", which helps sick children realise their dreams. Paradis' children with actor Johnny Depp, Jack and Lily-Rose, have also designed bags for the cause. Lourdes, 9 years old, covered her bag with red lips, while Rocco, 5 years old, sketched colourful drawings of small animals on his bag. The bags will be auctioned off at a dinner at the Hotel Bristol in Paris, France, on May 30.

Bye bye...Ace

Ace Young was voted off tonight - as we expected. He has the weakest voice and always pick bad songs. Now I have to cheer my second choice - everybody's favorite - Mr. Taylor Hicks.

My wish list...

Long known as the accessory of choice for gentlemen in the "waste-management" business, the gold watch has been showing up on some surprisingly fashionable wrists lately, designer Tom Ford's included. Of course, you'll need a fashion kingpin's income to experience most of these gilty pleasures. But if $27,000 for this Dior timepiece feels like a bit too much to pay, don't despair: That's why God invented Casio.

Private "Versace" jet

What's better than having a private jet; having a private Versace jet...
The TAG Group, a Luxembourg company that owns TAG Aeronautics in Montreal, asked Versace to put its gloss on its $50 million Bombardier jet planes. The interior has white leather upholstery, black rabbit fur pillows and a Versace logo in the upholstery; the logo also appears on the exterior, top. The company prefers this sober scheme, but if customers "want it pink and blue, no problem."

First, Chanel, then Louis Vuitton; Lindsay Lohan has been dropped (again) by Louis Vuitton bosses to make her the new face of the label and going for Naomi Campbell instead. A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Marc is great friends with Lindsay and she loves his clothes so it was no surprise rumours were flying that he was pushing his French bosses to get her to star in their campaign. But they thought Lindsay was too American for their global brand." Next time L Lo should keep her mouth shut until she really got the job.

Gay Theme Park

Tongziland, the world's first homosexual theme park, scheduled to open in 2009, the adults-only amusement park will rise in Johor Bahru. Spokesmen Tang En Chee of Same Joy PTE, Ltd., the Malaysian/Hong Kong joint venture which is funding the project, says that government licensing has been granted to transform a 120,000 square meter area of landfill into a full-featured, world-class recreation and entertainment tourist attraction. Local businesses hope the park will attract the lucrative pink dollar from affluent gay travelers from the around the region and Australia.

Organizers have been working closely with the government to revise Malaysia's colonial-era anti-sodomy laws to permit homosexual social interaction within the park's boundaries. A Health Ministry "Safer Sex Tourism Kit" with map of Malaysia's other gay attractions will be developed to emphasize that the nation has "a lot more than just a gay theme park" to offer homosexuals on a daily basis.

Preliminary designs for the park call for an authentic Chinese dynastic palace throne room populated by animatronic figures of famous gay Emperors and their favorites, a branch of Osaka's Takarazaku all-female theatrical extravaganza, a Thai-themed sports complex with transgender kick-boxing arena and Iron Ladies volleyball court, Cinderfella's Enchanted Castle sauna, an Old West themed Lesbian Round-up, and the 10-story tall Tower of Pride with rotating disco and high-powered lasers.

Playboy goes Gay

Christie Hefner, the chief executive, said “We’ve extended the Playboy brand to women, and where there is a meaningful gay market, launching under a different brand is something we are very comfortable doing. The brand will use Britain (where people are more open-minded) as its base to move into the gay market for the first time.

Prada for H&M ??

The rumour that the Italian fashion house is to follow Karl Lagerfeld and Stella McCartney's hugely successful collaborations with the Swedish store has surfaced again.

Miuccia was asked last year whether she would consider the idea of working with H&M. "I have talked about it as they did ask me, I think it is an interesting concept and I would love to work on an entire collection using inexpensive materials." Her only reservation is that she would be opposed to "the idea of copying the main collection straight out", stipulating that it should "be treated as a whole new collection". H&M's company’s design chief, Margareta van den Bosch, has indicated that Muiccia Prada is one of her favorite designers, and that she is keen to recruit a designer who can also do menswear.

Splurge vs. Steal

How do you copyright fashion design?
Designers try to put the copyright for their designs. Copyright law protects a creator of original material - like a songwriter or screenwriter - but clothing is not protected. For example;
A bag by Bottega Veneta (bottom) sells for $1,680 at Bergdorf Goodman, while the Urban Outfitters version (top) is $48.

gay marriage vs. polygamy


"Gays who seek to marry want the same thing. They're not looking for the right to sleep around. They already have that. It's called dating. A friend once explained to me why gay men have sex on the first date: Nobody says no. Your partner, being of the same sex, is as eager as you are to get it on. But he's also as eager as you are to get it on with somebody else. And if you really like him, you don't want that. You want him all to yourself. That's why marriage, not polygamy, is in your nature, and in our future." Slate.com has full report.

Update: Half of Americans (51%) continue to oppose legalizing gay marriage, but this number has declined significantly from 63% in February 2004.
