While the fashion world’s selling swill like "treggings" or the novel concept of denim-on-denim, perhaps designers should focus on the burgeoning market of lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender buyers searching for the right fit. It’s absolutely not an easy quest.
Dita Von Teese is a gorgeous, well-considered, meticulously put together image of frilly, no-muss retro femininity. In spite of this, she has launched a maternity lingerie line as gorgeous and delicate as she is, and it will be perfect for all your hottest new mom farts.
Never you mind that her album came out quite some time ago: Janelle Monáe has dropped the music video for her song "Electric Lady." It will probably make everyone stop what they're doing and immediately try to pledge Electro Phi Beta.

Everyone knows Samuel L. Jackson loves to say "motherfucker" in his films. It's a beautiful, glorious word when it rolls off his tongue. Jackson saying "motherfucker" is like Laurence Olivier reciting lines from Hamlet. It's like the sound of unicorns tickling puppies and then calling them "motherfuckers."

I have it on good authority that there's nothing a pregnant woman wants to do more than spend hours taking photos to document her progress.

Everyone's buzzing about the Fifty Shades of Grey trailer, because Fifty Shades isn't so much a work of fiction as a culture-wide essay prompt. Easily the best take is this bit from Jimmy Fallon and The Tonight Show, who filmed The Roots reacting to a remixed version—with a scary scream-y face added.
