I can't fucking stand her. She was talking about altering that dress like she cured world hunger or something. VOM

And Taylor, if your job is so bad, why don't you quit?

Whiny children, the lot of them.

@Beets.Go.On is the Fat Yogini: Everything about this show is wrong. The endless exclaiming about the deep importance of getting the perfect multimillion dollar jewels or "editing" clutches as if life depended on this crap DURING THE WORST RECESSION OF THE LAST 5O YEARS is so tone deaf as to be insane. I just hate how self-important these ninnies are.

Its funny that in LA, they would say Taylor is jealous of Jordan's body.
Boobs are the holy grail here.
No one in LA is jealous of someone with teeny boobs, trust me.

I think Taylor needs a new job. Rachel does not promote the most professional work environment, which some people might love but Taylor obviously hates. She's still complaining about doing the same job for years, but I doubt there is much else she should do working for Rachel. Time to move on sister.

How is Eva Mendes considered such a big name? I can't think of one movie she's been in.

@clevernamehere: Eva Mendes tends to show up in stuff that's critically panned but makes a lot of of money (2 Fast 2 Furious, Hitch, We Own the Night, The Women, among others). So she's legitimately famous, but if you make a point to avoid shitty Hollywood Machine movies you're not likely to have seen her.

I am hooked on this show after last night. I really, really enjoy it, much more than the other fashiony shows like Project Runway and Fashion Show. I think I am just sick of the Competiton style reality show, I like the Candid "day in the life of" format more. And I actually like Zoe, she's not bad at all.

I remembered that dress and necklace Eva Mendes wore, and Anne H's dress, but didn't know Zoe styled them. Both were incredibly beautiful. Didn't love the Chanel pink though.

I'm not sure why, but there's really nothing I hate about Rachel Zoe or her show. Sure, sometimes I think Taylor needs to get over herself, but otherwise, I think it's fabulous. It's fun watching how these amazing red carpet looks come together, it's fun watching them walk into super high end stores and point at "this, this, and that one over there" and voila! it all arrives at their studio. Say what you will about Rachel, but I think she makes people look fabulous.

I want to hate these people, but I can't because they actually aren't idiots, they actually have talent, they aren't mean people, and they make me laugh.

I thought the body snark was really annoying and Rachel did say "Taylor is so seething with anger" at one point when Jordan was trying on a dress and I would have been really fucking pissed too. Honestly, don't tell me that I'm mad. And the only reason I would be mad is if I'm jealous that I can't fit into the dress. And unless I told you that, perhaps you shouldn't remark outloud that I'm jealous of someone else's body...cause that's what Rachel did.

In case of emergency, I've got designs for hundreds of similar dresses in one of my childhood notebooks. A few shoulder frills may have to be lopped off, but they're basically the same.

Also, if celeb mags are to be believed (and they're not), big boobs = fat. Or pregnant.

I want to be buried in that dress Anne Hathaway is wearing. I don't care if you have to saw out some bones to do it. I'll be dead. I won't mind.

Can we discuss the BING ad featuring Rachel and Roger's ostensible search for a sushi restaurant? That was the single least-subtle product placement I have ever witnessed on television. I literally gagged.

I was put off by Brad's remark about Jordan's boobs not being, "real, woman's boobs," as well. Apparently, you just can't win, no matter what size your tits are.

I was confused by the boob issue because Anne Hathaway has more Taylor-like boobs, so you'd think they'd want Taylor to try it on. All in all I think Rachel and her team do some killer styling. I thought (back when the Globes aired) that Cameron and Eva, especially, looked stunning.

Also, I love that they showed (and dismissed) the white, beaded dress that Anne wore for the SAG awards. That is my favorite Hathaway red carpet look so far. I die.

There was a time when garbage like The Rachel Zoe project would have had me skipping breakfast, lunch and dinner. During my two-hour-a-day gym habit, I would have devoured Naomi Wolfe's teachings while hating men for making me feel bad about my body.

Then I realized that it was other women who were breathing stale life into Naomi Wolfe's Iron Maiden and it made me sad but it also liberated me.

@winner: I think it can be persuasively argued to be multifactorial -- with both men and women contributing to the problem.

I can see how that assistant would be annoyed. Despite the fact that she has a beautiful body it's still a message that it's not good enough for the fashion industry. I was more annoyed when Rachel kept harping on the fact that Taylor was "seething". It reminded me of a mother who feels the need to tell everyone else that her daughter is being grumpy.
