Especially since Coach has finally started to shed some of it’s baggage (that pun was definitely intended) and become somewhat more fashion forward.

Changing the name of the parent company to Tapestry just seems like a regressive step. I mean - how do I say this nicely - “Tapestry” is a stupid ass name.

I just replaced a 25 y/o men’s wallet with one of their newer offerings. Underwhelming couldn’t be a more appropriate descriptor.

Louis Vuitton is still Louis Vuitton.

This is like the renaming of the Sears Tower. You bought a giant building with a widely-known name. You can technically rename it the Willis Tower, but no one will ever actually call it that, and you guys will look like a bunch of culturally out-of-touch dummies.

Yes. While it’s great that Bordain is currently sticking up for women on twitter, he has been known to take shots at other celebrities (who are not on trial. Example: He took shots at Rachel Ray’s cooking in a really unnecessary way. And he’s done that to multiple people. Which is just unnecessary, it’s not like he…

Terry Crews was so much more than just some macho guy before he even played football. He didn’t even get into college from football, he got in on an arts scholarship because he draws and paints and just played football for the hell of it.

Yes! What a bad ass ally for victims of assault to have. I’m so impressed by this.

Sounds pretty reasonable to me. Clooney’s probably trying to process how he managed not to realize for so long who/what Weinstein really is. The fact that the Obamas let their Malia, their 19-year-old daughter, intern for Weinstein’s company shows me that this “open secret” wasn’t really as “open” as some people seem…

I doubt Clooney thought Weinstein was “loved”; he probably thought he was tolerated for his money/power/influence. There’s a difference between sleazy rich dude and rapist rich dude: consent. The fact that the Obamas let their Malia, their 19-year-old daughter, intern for him shows me that this “open secret” wasn’t…

The ad isn’t about a black woman “washing the black off” and turning into a white woman with the help of dove soap. It’s about dove soap being good for women if every skin color.

Right. But she’s correct to point out that the widely circulated screenshots are extremely misleading about what the ad actually was and thus what she signed on to do. I think she’s also correct to call out how the media reported the Dove ad.

I knew about them, and I don’t even work in the industry anymore, was never important or successful in it, worked mostly based out of Vancouver and have been living on a different continent for 16 years. So I say to all these fuckers who have stayed silent for all these years:

I’m not surprised at all that many professional colleagues knew nothing about Weinstein’s sexual activities. I don’t know about you, but I’m generally not interested in the sex lives of people I’m not having sex with.

Very good point; if I lived a life where the most outrageous lies were told about me on a daily basis I’d just automatically discount most of what I heard about my celeb friends. It would be a survival mechanism.

Yes, and people had been gossiping for years about Clooney being homosexual. Perhaps he chose to dismiss the rumours about Weinstein because he is personally familiar with persistent rumours that are just rumours.

I think it’s likely Clooney knew because Matt Damon definitely knew. But I do think that’s a good point.

I’m not sure why everyone is sure that these A-list stars would know this kind of information. Who would tell them? I don’t think this kind of information filters up from the levels of the assistants who support the power brokers whose power resides in their ability to maintain and leverage relationships. Maybe I’m…

Yesterday this site was criticizing him for not speaking out. Now he’s spoken out, and instead of finding anything wrong per se, he’s trying too hard to be woke. What do we expect of him? He’s an actor. I don’t know why people expect him to be some kind of feminist leader.

So are we tarring Meryl and Kate with that brush too? They’re right up there saying they didn’t know either.

And why is that not a legitimate question? You can’t just go to “stop blaming women” or “you’re victim-blaming” as an automatic response to short-circuit someone raising rational, maybe uncomfortable issues.
