Ben would probably sniff the Goop candle and be able to identify each essential oil and the percentage used in the formula.

Erykah Badu looked stunning. She is employing a feature you don’t see in a lot of celebrity fashion these days; I’m talking about mystery. Badu was an apparition of glamour and mystery. Her glittering, enigmatic silhouette made everyone else look like blaring try-hards, like reality-show contestants mugging for the…

He can be a little try-hard...

I find those two completely incomprehensible.

Oh and also the name of the designer, if possible? It brings context that can be helpful to understanding the celebrity’s choice of outfit.

It’s gotta be one of the Kardashian fame tactics. They all do it. Wearing fashions that are uber-sexy but somehow... vaguely asinine. I think it’s get everyone talking – and to ramp up that vital love/hate factor.

You clearly have absolutely no understanding or respect for the effects of great art (like we do in LA).

OK ok I was just riffing on a comment about LA by lisa_lionheart, above.

I don’t find it surprising in the least. The central feature of art is its ability to arouse emotions in the perceiver: joy, pleasure, shivers down the spine, awe, tears and sometimes even negative emotions like fear, anger or disgust. I was once stunned to find myself sobbing uncontrollably in a theatre in response…

“The gap between the image of glamour and privilege on the one hand, and then the reality of many working people’s lives on the other, makes it hard for most people who don’t have experience firsthand in fashion to understand how abusive the industry can be, and how pervasive bad working conditions really are.”

I wish you had never mentioned that channel – cuz now I’m addicted too!

Who the fuck art-directed this shoot? There was obviously no way to pick a frock color that would work when combined with that navy blue graphic background plus turquoise carpet. Even basic black didn’t work. All the posing celebrities look displeased with the arrangements.

Yes! Editors: something seems wrong with the coding on the comments sections on most of the recent articles!

Virgos may be deficient in X-Factor, but they serve V-Factor like nobody’s business!

Gemini.

I thought the same thing. And Farrow looks like a Vegas lounge act.

Jennifer Coolidge oozes glamour. Not sure how but she definitely oozes.

I’ve never seen two people serve so much ‘tude! I imagine Cindy coldly instructing them to dial it back to 11 for the next carpet.

I can’t help feeling that by imagining the lives of the men of SATC, you’re pulling all the focus away from Carrie-Carrie-Carrie.

You have a point. It gets a little wearing to see every problematic issue involving males – from gun mania, to inceldom, to right-wing conservatism, to gender dysphoria, to eating disorders, to... you name it – attributed to “closeted homosexuality.”
