Balenciaga should sue whomever actually green-lighted the Sportiletto, and should be grateful if Steve Madden's team actually made it seem desirable and copy-worthy.
@labeled: Jeez, those are some ugly shoes.
Also, what is happening with the Forever 21 lawsuits? They do the same thing-- copy designers blatantly, but I never heard what happened.
@Raised-byHeathens: Right? I particularly like this shot of them, also. What shoes don't look fan-fucking-tastic with gray wool tights? And, they're even worse than I thought - that's rubber, not leather. Jeebus, those're so fug they're kind of making my morning.
@labeled: She is wearing them with some type of track pant too. See the piping there on the leg? Is that like dressing up for sporting events? High fashion at the hockey game? They are awesomely fug.
I read "Jessica Simpson shows bikini line" as some sort of downstairs version of a nip slip that Perez Hilton would doodle about and make fun of mercilessly for months.
Unfortunately her swimwear line looks even less exciting.
Honestly, when I have bought Target Go stuff in the past, I just grab shit because I hate trying stuff on, and if it doesn't fit or I don't like it, I always check eBay before returning them. Because I like money.
@cinematheques: Why wouldn't he want a name that he can pronounce? That doesn't sound dickish to me. What does, however, is that his wife just had a baby and they haven't had "more than just two-three hours" together since then.
@bluebears: Yeah, seriously. A traditional name? Whose fucking tradition? And where is he? It seems really weird that a father would be anywhere but with his wife and newborn child at this point.
@apricotta: Yeah, and we have no clue what he means by "traditional." He might just be turned off by the celebrity baby name craze and want something, you know, normal.
God forbid he want a common name that he can pronounce! The injustice!
@msridiculous447: well his girlfriend is Argentinian so...pretty sure he was referring to that. I mean "Apple" is a ridiculous name but not exactly hard to pronounce.
@cinematheques: There are some Portuguese names, like Daniel, that could work in both languages, and others, like João, that just don't, so I could see wanting a name that could be made to work in either.
@cinematheques: Guys, guys, guys: to be fair to poor ol' Tom, at the other end of the link he specifies that he would be fine with the baby getting a Brazilian name, so long as he can pronounce it.
Anything's gotta be better than, what, Baby It? Precious Darling Boy-Child? Male Offspring?
@Jenna: And according to her family, their previous choice was Gabriel, which works in either language. I think by "traditional" he means he doesn't want his kid named Watermelon or Yonkers or whatever the trend is these days.
@fulanita: Right, plus not all Brazilian names are traditional. There are the weird hybrid names (Wilker, Gilmer) or the "American names" (Washington, Lincoln, Wellington), or the famous Greek names (Aristotle, Sophocles) that are popular(ish) in Brazil and I can totally see being opposed to.
@dialing_footnoterphone: @lizbang: Yes, it must be the eyebrows. Maybe she used to wear them with less of an arch and a little lighter in color? Off to look at old Madonna photos...
@slowpoke.r: There is more than a slight resemblance. (full disclosure: I flopped the picture of Kate Winslet l-to-r so her bangs fell the same way as the pic of Madonna)

In some chipmunk-type voice? I imagine the voice would be key for the delivery!

Re: Elin and Puma. Is she an athlete or something. Why would she get an endorsement?

I don't know, I just assumed he meant that he wanted a normal, non-celebrity name, and threw in "pronounceable" as a joke.
As in, "I don't care what we name the baby, so long as it isn't "Moses" or "Apple" and I can pronounce it."
I have no idea why I'm defending him...lol. As a lifelong Buffalo fan, he's a sworn enemy of my people.
