Beth Ditto is designing another Evans collection. Last time the singer held fast to the 80s, with sometimes mixed results, but the range that will hit stores in September counts everything from Victoriana to "Noughties body-con" as an influence. [Telegraph]

The Country Music Awards Just Get Weirder Every Year

Sadie Stein — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 10:30:00 EDT

It used to be Stetsons and sequins; nowadays the CMAs are the purview of hollywood stars, the occasional rapper, and some seriously bizarre fashions. (Although, yes, Reba, Taylor, Faith et al were representing.) More »

The Annotated Guide To Making Faith Hill 'Hot'

Anna Holmes — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 20:00:00 EDT

Redbook has a photo editor named Bruce Perez so we are going to be reverse-sexist and, instead of the magazine's female creative director, blame him for the fact that Faith Hill looks very Carrie Underwood on the cover of Redbook. More »

Sofia Coppola's LV Line Debuts In Tokyo

Sadie Stein — Fri, 05 Dec 2008 11:30:00 EST

Sofia Coppola debuts her line of "sure, why not?" accessories for Louis Vuitton in Tokyo. The luxe line is made up of "slouchy duffle bags, discreet clutches and retro wedge sandals." [WWD]
Speaking of qualified designers, Posh's dress line is a hit in London! "The presence of her name on the shop floor alongside such greats as Alexander McQueen, Vivienne Westwood and John Galliano was quite an achievement for a designer who unveiled her first collection of dresses just three months ago. More impressive still was the fact that by 3pm on its first day on sale only three dresses were left unsold." [Guardian]
Tim Gunn is not sanguine! Quoth the silver fox, "We have this horrible, nasty court case. We have an angry Bravo/NBC. We have an angry Lifetime. We have, I'm sure, an angry Weinstein Company. We have Heidi and I despondent about the whole thing. We worry that season six will never be seen by anyone." [Washington Blade]
Addressing the severe shortage of celebrity perfumes, Faith Hill is in talks with Coty. [WWD]

Infamous Photoshop victim Faith Hill says that posing in a bikini on the cover of Shape is her "41st birthday present" to herself. • There is nothing like a near-death experience to bring people together.

Photoshop victim Faith Hill is not pregnant. According to Us, she set tongues wagging about the state of her uterus by wearing a flowy top to the CMT music awards. • Ashton Kutcher dishes about losing his V-card and it's sort of charming: "I was 15. It was out in the woods with a girl I had just met who my buddy set me up with. The whole thing lasted two seconds. It was really awkward. Two years later I had sex with her again just to show her the first performance was a fluke and I'd gotten better." • TMZ is making fun of Tom Brady for being whipped by Gisele Bundchen. They call Brady her "wife." Because being in a monogamous relationship is soooo emasculating. Jerks. [Us, ICYDK, TMZ] More »

Country Music Awards 2008: Big Hair, Sequins, & Nicole Kidman

Jennifer — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 10:30:00 EDT

I might be from the South, but I know jack about country music. Which is why I think I was doubly amused by the Country Music Awards, which took place in Nashville last night: People wore cowboy hats! In earnest! But the happenings were made all the more interesting because 1) Nicole Kidman was there, and 2) a sampling of random celebs, including Maureen McCormick, Paula Abdul, Miley Cyrus, Jewel, and Crystal Gale. (Faith Hill was on hand as well, and looked terrifying.) The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly of the Country Music Awards, after the jump. More »

Grammy Awards Fashions Hit The High Notes

Jennifer — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 10:30:00 EST

Finally: Another awards ceremony! At last night's Grammys, celebrities seemed eager to cuddle up to the warm and welcoming bosom of a red carpet, and for the most part, everyone cleaned up nicely. Hell, even Lisa Rinna looked good, forgoing her usual penchant for leopard print for sleek silver. Other big successes: Alicia Keys, who always looks sleek; Fergie, who kept things minimal and sunny; Natasha Bedingfield, who dazzled in royal purple; and Rihanna, who had the most exciting dress of the evening by far — short, snappy, dazzling. But of course, there were the losers, too, and we don't just mean the people who went home without statuettes. Carole King would have been better off in a tapestry than what she was wearing; Taylor Swift looked like she was headed to the prom; Cyndi Lauper looked like the Bride of Frankenstein, and we're not sure what the hell Kelis was thinking.

Two weeks after they exchanged vows at a "spiritual" ceremony in Bora Bora, Tracey Edmonds and Eddie Murphy have indeed split. The two will "remain friends" and since they never had a legal US wedding, Eddie — who acted like a bit of an asshole to Tracey — won't have to pay any alimony. [People]

There's a video on Advertising Age about...

Moe — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 14:45:00 EDT

There's a video on Advertising Age about BLOGS STEALING CONTENT from magazines and OMG HOW THE MAGAZINES ARE GOING TO SURVIVE OUR PITILESS ASSAULT ON THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY and you don't really need to watch the video because I can sum it up thusly: many magazines simply do not deserve to exist. Seriously, when I came to work for this blog I was like "Anna, the cool thing about this is, whereas it was actually a little painful for me to see newspaper content repurposed so relentlessly on blogs that they couldn't make any money on the internet and had to lay off all the reporters not in charge of covering gruesome crime/heroic dogs, we could kill women's magazines entirely and I would not feel ONE TWINGE of remorse!" Anyway the video brings up that unretouched Redbook cover with Faith Hill that we ran a few months back, which is ironic since it's not like they were doing anything with it, which gave us a great idea! Why don't magazines just make back all the ad revenue we're stealing running the before/after photoshop jobs on their websites? And they could make a branded reality show about the photo department. Like Six Feet Under meets The Hills! Do it before Harvey Levin "steals" the idea first! [Ad Age] More »

Aspiring To Anorexia

Jennifer — Tue, 24 Jul 2007 12:55:46 EDT

Uh, remember that little segment on the Today show yesterday? Something having to do with, oh, women and body image and magazines that do brutal retouching jobs on their cover subjects thus inspiring self-hatred and impossible standards of beauty — all in the name of "industry standards"? Yeah, we caught that segment too! And remember how Men's Health editor David Zinczenko and that psychologist kept saying that it's totally okay that magazines do this, because everyone knows that said magazines are "aspirational"? Well the word 'aspirational' is only two letters removed from 'inspirational', Mr. Zinczenko, especially with regards to young girls. More »

That Faith Hill Photo Wasn't Actually A Photo, 'Redbook' Editor Explains

Moe — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 14:23:25 EDT

This morning the Today show aired a segment on how we "uncovered" that un-retouched Redbook cover photograph of Faith Hill and milked it so relentlessly we would be ashamed to even post this clip if not for the awesome explanation of Redbook editor-in-chief Stacy Morrison, who explains to the show: "In the end, they're not really photographs. They're images." Um, yeah, images taken by photographers using cameras with photographic lenses! Well, forget Stacy, even longtime "aspirationalism" fetishist David Zinczenko of Men's Health tells the show he thinks it was morally wrong what those cruel people did to poor Faith Hill's arm, in this clip featuring Kate Winslet, numerous rain-soaked tourists from Laredo and our very own Anna Holmes, who surfs the internet and talks without saying "like" in this powerful feature on... um, thought there was a way we could get through this post without the phrase "unattainable beauty standards perpetuated by the media"? Wrong again! More »

'Redbook' & Faith Hill: Different Day, Same 'Ol Story

Our Commenters: Is There Not A Newt Gingrich Amongst You All?

Jennifer — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 17:22:21 EDT

One of the best ("best" = soul-wrenching!) parts about working on Jezebel is reading what Jezebel readers have to say back. So we were practically drawing straws for the chance to wade through your thoughts on our decision to pay $10,000 so we could run an un-retouched Redbook cover featuring Faith Hill. (Yup, Baby Spice "won" this assignment!) We braced ourselves for who among you would meet us, as Women's Wear Daily did, with contempt and disapproval that we would undermine "one of the few venues where celebrities are spared the warts and all coverage of the tabloid age." But none of you did! Nice ethics, bitches! Anyway, what your observations taught us about anatomy, Victoria Beckham, back fat, and Photoshop, after the jump. More »

Faith Hill's 'Redbook' Photoshop Chop: Why We're Pissed

Anna Holmes — Tue, 17 Jul 2007 11:30:00 EDT

Imagine a scenario in which a powerful, self-made, self-possessed woman deigns to follow the orders of a much-less powerful, egomaniacal foreigner and crash-diets herself to aesthetic "acceptability" so she can appear on the cover of an American magazine available to the public for, at most, 4 weeks. That scenario is exactly what happened when Oprah Winfrey was asked — and agreed — to appear on the cover of Vogue's October 1998 issue. As the story goes, Winfrey spent months whittling herself to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour's exacting standards so that she would look acceptable in a Steven Meisel-photograph for the cover. "If you want to be on the cover of Vogue and Anna Wintour says you have to be down to 150lbs - that's what you gotta do," Winfrey told the BBC, adding, tellingly, "I didn't think for one moment 'Now I am going to be a Vogue model' nor even did I think I could hold that weight."
