From Catwalk Queen…
It is being called a dark day in Hollywood after the deaths of icons Michael Jackson, 50, and Farrah Fawcett, 62. With a 50-concert tour scheduled, and an announcement just yesterday that he’ll be wearing Swarovski when he kicked off his “This is It” tour in London next month, Michael passed away yesterday afternoon. According to US reports, the King of Pop suffered a cardiac arrest at his home, and was taken to UCLA Medical Center where he was pronounced dead by medical staff. Tributes have been flooding in from his celebrity friends all night.
Earlier yesterday morning, Farrah lost her long battle with cancer. The former Charlie’s Angels star, renowned for her flicky hair ‘do, passed away in Santa Monica surrounded by her family and friends, including Ryan O’Neal.
R.I.P.

Uh-huh it’s true… Miley Cyrus and Max Azria have inked a deal with Wal-Mart to create a line for juniors. Can you just hear the dollar signs ringing already?
The range is to be called “Miley Cyrus and Max Azria” (some originality maybe?) and will include tops, pants, graphic T-shirts and shoes, starting from $20. It will go on sale at Wal-Mart outlets and via Walmart.com from August this year.
I guess we should have known something was up when Miley starting wearing grown-up wear by Azria. For example, that sparkly minidress Hervé Léger dress she wore to the London premiere of Hannah Montana: The Movie. Look out Olsens!

It seems that Rihanna cover for Vogue is in jeopardy in the aftermath of those nude photos of her and Chris Brown that were recently leaked onto the internet.
The singing superstar was approached by Anna Wintour to star in an upcoming issue of the glossy mag. They were reportedly “thick as thieves” at the Met Costume Gala last month.
“Anna told her Vogue absolutely loves her and really wanted to work with her. Rihanna was ecstatic,” a source told Star magazine.
However, it is now believed that the editrix has retracted her offer in response to the photos that were allegedly taken by Brown, although he denies it.
“Anna hasn’t returned any of her calls. Rihanna’s so upset… She hopes the people at Vogue change their minds,” the source added.
And so their turbulent relationship has cost Rihanna again. Shame!

Representing the “Shape issue” is Beyonce, who has been photographed by Mario Testino for the April ’09 cover of Vogue. It’s the second time this year that Anna Wintour has chosen a black woman for the cover (Michelle Obama was the first for the March ’09 issue). With the headline “Real women have curves, Beyonce at her best”, it’s great to see the 27-year-old land the cover, but might I casually remind Ms Wintour that real women come in all wonderful shapes, and not solely of the curvy variety.
