I Call Bullshit- And A Harps Boycot!!

A Twitter user took this picture at a Harps grocery store in Mountain Home, Arkansas of a Family Shield over the Us Weekly showing Elton John, his partner and their new baby.

 

Is this Porn?

A spokeswhore for Harps gave an interview to GLAAD (via JMG) confirming that the shield was used after people complained.

I spoke with Harps Corporate Executive Assistant Marty Yarborough, who told me that every Harps store is equipped with these shields and that they get put up whenever customers complain about the content of a magazine cover. She said the word from the store about this particular cover was that “several” customers had complained, so the shield went up. She also confirmed that these shields are utilized on a store-by-store basis, so the magazine would not have been covered up at any of the other Harps locations, unless customers complained there as well. She also told me that the usage of the shield on this particular cover is “in no way our opinion on this issue.” She quickly added, ”we do not have an opinion on this issue.”

Can I tell you how deeply this angers me? I could go off stating how disgusting, backwards,  bigoted,  and un-godly (yes, un-godly since god is love not hate) people are that would be offended by this. Unfortuantely that will probably get me knowhere with that low-breed of human since they are basic reasoning challenged. Instead we'll talk to them where it counts. Thier wallets!

If the use of the "family shield" by Harps Grocery Store offends you PLEASE do NOT shop at this, or any other HARPS Store.
Take your good sense and good money elsewhere. Please spread the word!!

 In the meantime please enjoy the beautiful cover of Sir Elton John and David Furnish, 48, with their beautiful new baby Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John.

The Good, The Bad, The Globes

Let's just go there and start with the bad shall we?

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

I want to wrap gifts and arrange them around her feet.
This HAS to be pine scented right?

Tina is funny and so is her dress. Funny sad.

Oh Christina, it's always just too much. Your reds in your nails and jewels don't match and neither do the yellows in your hair and extensions. Speaking of the jewels, again, too much! Pick one of the rings (the one on your ring finger) and call it a day.

Little House on the Prairie meets the red carpet.
Save grace for the AMAZING purse Leighton because I'm fully planning to snatch it.

(b.t.w. I actually do think Jane and her wife Lara look just fantastic)
I thought this was the best dressed lesbian couple of the night until....

...I saw this couple.
She's fetching and her wife is quite handsome in her tux.
ughhh...cut your hair dude. You're looking WAY too fem lately.
The dress? Underwhelming.

YOU'RE OUT!
Auf Wiedersehen!
Seriously, WTF?? It looks like they just came from dinner on a yacht and Seal's leather shrunk because it got wet.

I'm torn because while I hate it on the red carpet
I think this is an absolutely stunning wedding dress.

Julianne is usually my number one pick so this saddened me.
I like half the dress (you have to guess which half).

Dowdy dress, drawn face, drab hair.
p.s. EAT!!!

Sandy, I'm o.k. with the Jenny Packham dress but girl you need to talk to
wigmaster Derek J because this one isn't working.
p.s. EAT!!

My pick for the WORST dressed goes to:
Halle Berry in Nina Ricci.

In a stunning turn of events Halle stepped out of the limo in just her Spanks. She obviously had forgotten to put her dress on before leaving the house.
Fortunately, some kind person gave her their shawl to wrap around her waist.
EPIC FAIL (and you should know better)!

Let's see some of the hits...

yea for both but Jane wins!

Dig it.

Damn! Trent Reznor, you clean up real nice!

Kelly Osborne rocked the turd out of this Posen dress!!

Yes!

Beautiful

Nice

All the stars in the universe are twinkling for you Olivia Wilde
and the Louboutin shoes? Swoon!

This is what I would have worn.
Piper Perabo watch out! I'm on a purse snatching rampage and yours is next!

Hands down my BEST DRESSED goes to:

I LOVE this color against Emma Stone's skin, the minimalism of this dress and the accessories. A brave choice. Not tired and predictable.
Absolute perfection!

Bonk Goes The Bieber

This makes me much happier than it probably should. Good thing those doofus bangs will cover the egg on his forehead.

Obsession- House of Waris

Liberte

“I fell in love with a bird on the wallpaper,” Says Waris of the birds in the bathroom of room 502 at the Raphael Hotel in Paris (The hotel made a cameo in his friend Wes Anderson’s prequel to “The Darjeeling Limited.) “And I realized that birds could be the perfect way to explore the fine, detailed work of enameling and pavé.” He designed six avian jewels under his House of Waris label and named them after famous love-seeking literary characters.

Hit pause on the player at right----->

I've always had a thing for Old Hollywood and I grew up on the Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoons so I was delighted when I was able to find this. Enjoy.

Vanity Fair- The Portraits: A Century of Iconic Images

"Vanity Fair magazine has a reputation as one of the preeminent showcases for portraits in the world, and this book gathers together a good chunk of them in all their glossy, artificial splendor. There's almost as much celebrity behind the lens as in front of it: Edward Steichen, Herb Ritts, Mario Testino, David LaChapelle and, of course, Annie Leibovitz are all included, and the portraits themselves amount to a who''s who of culture and politics, with the quality of the images justifying the inclusion of the occasional lesser-known figures. The photographs have been arranged to supply the reader with subtle (and not so subtle) visual and cultural frisson: what are we meant to think when Joseph Goebbels is juxtaposed with Richard Perle? In a face-off between Rob Lowe and Louise Brooks, who has the most glamorous jaw line? For posing questions such as this, and for the production values and sheer scale, not to mention introductory essays by Graydon Carter, Christopher Hitchens, Terence Pepper and David Friend, this is a book that will no doubt be adorning the coffee tables of the world''s culture brokers for many years to come." -Publisher's Weekly

Vanity Fair: The Portraits: A Century of Iconic Images is available at Amazon for $40.95 (37% off the $65- list price)

What a Twit!

Congratulations are in order. Kimora Lee Simmons and Djimon Hounsou welcomed a photo op, sorry, I meant to say baby boy into the world yesterday morning. It seems that not even going into labor can keep this attention starved celebutard from tweeting.

Tweeted Simmons, "It's time!! No turning back! At hospital in labor right now!!," followed shortly after by, "Having contractions now! Ooo- wee! It's like WHOA! Love & Light, KLS."

Gawd Kimora. Way to keep your child's birth a sacred and special moment shared between yourself and Djimon. You forgot to tweet the name of the baby, or is that too private?!?

BTW...that sign off, Love & Light. Seriously, gimme a break already.

Update: Kimora has a Kenzo. Kimora Lee Simmons (above) and Djimon Hounsou gave their baby boy the very fashionable name Kenzo Lee Hounsou, inspired no doubt by retired Japanese fashion icon Kenzo Takada. Kenzo, born here Saturday, weighed in at 8 pounds, and was 20 inches long. "He's a little prince," said a friend. This is Kimora's third child -- she has two daughters, Ming Lee and Aoki Lee, with her ex-husband, Russell Simmons.

Name Those Parents...

We are the proud parents of a celebrity, who as it happens, got married to another celebrity.

We would be remiss if we didn't mention we have another famous child. Well...they kinda sorta are. O.k...let's just say they're trying.

Both of them get their good looks from their absolutely ravishing mother.

Can you guess who they are? No?

If you're done guessing you can click on either of our gorgeous mugs to find out.
