First Look: Lady Gaga Cuts Back on Hair for Alejandro
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Hairstyles, News,
The first look at Lady Gaga‘s latest music video for “Alejandro” is out, and initial reactions aren’t too flattering. Whether it be a comparison to animated folks like Ronald McDonald or The Simpsons character Mr. Burns (when he played a vampire of course), our favorite fashionista isn’t pleasing everyone. Personally, I’m glad she cut back on the extravagant hair pieces—it’s nice to see a little more natural Gaga, on top of just doing something different than her usual fare.

Lady Gaga Aims for Philip Treacy Internship
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, Rumors,
What’s Lady Gaga‘s next step to world domination? Hats.
The “Telephone” singer - famed for her eccentric fashion sense - has approached renowned hat designer Philip Treacy to take her on as an intern so she can learn all the tricks of the trade, but he has yet to give her a definite answer.
“Lady Gaga has requested an internship. But Philip will have to check her sewing skills first,” Treacy’s representative stated.
Gaga - who is thought to have approached the hatmaker at this year’s BRIT Awards - is often seen wearing bizarre headpieces including lobster hats and a telephone on her head. The 24-year-old star is not the first celebrity to want to do a fashion internship.
Last year, Kanye West revealed his determination to carve out a successful career as a clothes designer and had been writing to fashion houses in Europe - including Louis Vuitton on London’s Bond Street - asking for experience. Kanye said, “I’m going to go and take an internship and just do something that’s like completely normal, and just rap at the weekends or something.”

- At last night’s big Belvedere Pink Grapefruit event in New York, Ashley Olsen revealed that a certain city across the pond will be the inspiration for the pair’s next Olsenboye collection. That’s nice and all, but I’d really appreciate if they’d concentrate on getting the line out of JCPenney.

Grace Jones Criticizes Gaga For Copying Her Style
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, Models, News,
Lady Gaga has been accused of copying Grace Jones’ style.
The “Poker Face” hitmaker approached the veteran singer for a collaboration, but the former model turned her down because she is not a fan of the eccentric star.
Grace revealed, “I really don’t think of Lady Gaga at all. I go about my business. Well, you know, I’ve seen some things she’s worn that I’ve worn, and that does kind of p**s me off. Is she talented? I wouldn’t go to see her. Yes, she did ask to work with me, but I said no. I’d just prefer to work with someone who is more original and someone who is not copying me, actually.”
Despite her advancing years, the 61-year-old star still has a toned figure and admits her muscular frame has always set her apart from other women: “When I started modeling, I’d raise my arms and it was all muscle and all the other models had nothing. Really, everybody thought I was a man. I don’t have to do much to have muscles. It’s just genetic.”
Lady Gaga Frowns Upon Casual Celebrities
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, News,
Lady Gaga hates casually dressed celebrities.
The “Telephone” singer - who is famed for her eccentric fashion sense - believes stars should make an effort when they appear at red carpet events as she thinks it’s something the fans deserve:
“I think you should look nice all the time. When I meet celebrities and they’re in casual clothes, I’m always like, ‘Whaaat?’ I don’t mean to be judgmental, but it would do them better to be who they really are, all the time. When I get out of a car and there are 30 fans waiting for me, I know I’m dressed the way I should be. There’s a reason they have that emotional reaction.”
The 24-year-old star also admitted her image is highly sexed but denied rumours she buys her clothes from sex stores.
She told Britain’s OK! magazine, “Everybody loves sex. I would love to be introduced to one person on the planet that does not love sex. I don’t buy my clothes from sex shops. I just recently have had a love affair with S+M clothing and masks as I love the idea of telling stories with no face. I believe in some things very strongly and that is the power of showbiz.”
Viktor and Rolf Designed Gaga Prison Wear
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Fashion Designers, News, Videos,
Fashionable pop singer Lady Gaga asked to look like a prisoner in her latest music video.
The eccentric singer teamed up with designers Viktor and Rolf for “Telephone” - her duet with Beyonce Knowles - as she wanted them to create her a bespoke costume, which was inspired by spending time behind bars. As a result, in some scenes in the video Gaga wears a dark grey leopard jersey jumpsuit with a studded bodice decorated with metal chains.
“Lady Gaga asked us to design a prisoner’s outfit. This is how we imagined Gaga if she was incarcerated. She inspired us and her bodysuit was included in our brand new ‘glamour factory’ collection. It is styled with a huge pile of exaggerated metal chain necklaces.”
As well as her Viktor and Rolf prison outfit, Gaga and Beyonce also wear designs by outlandish designer Jean Charles de Castelbajac - with Beyonce choosing a blue jacket from the Spring/Summer 2010 collection and Gaga sporting a bespoke dress.
