    Hadley is American by the way, but why not leopardprint for Christmas? I'm going to dig out my wee, pale leopardprint jacket for the holidays.

    Abercrombie & Fitch has become such a joke. I drive by an A&F billboard on a regular basis, and, although the image changes every few months, the ad NEVER shows any A&F clothes! Just bare body parts and hunky faces. I understand putting A&F clothes on good-looking models, but I think it says something that A&F have basically completely stopped selling their CLOTHES.

    @Kivrin: I think if they tried simply selling their clothes they'd have a problem. It's hard to make someone but a plain t-shirt with nothing more than a brand name on it unless it's deemed sexy. People that wear A&F are walking billboards for the company anyway.

    They are opening an American Apparel in Rome.


    My issue is the store won't be on Via del Corse but in a very, cool, little neighborhood called Monti. It like putting McDonalds across from the Pantheon...oh wait there is one.

    "Aboriginals [...] are actually sweet, gentle people."


    Brilliant, Kylie. When can we expect your next enlightening comments on "misconceived" peoples? - "Gays aren't degenerate pedophiles, they're actually sweet, gentle people who do really good hair."

    Kylie Bax firstly needs to clear the miscinception that she is Australian - she's actually a New Zealander.


    And secondly, Kylie, actually not all Aboriginals are sweet, gentle people. You know, some of them are lovely. Some of them are arseholes. Some of them are kind. Some of them are mean. Some of them are smart. Some of them are dumb. You know, like individuals of any racial background. They cannnot be defined as a whole, especially considering there are hundreds of Australian Aboriginal groups across the country.

    This is unlike Jezebel commenters, who are all hateful nobodies who like to anonymously attack successful, rich, sweet and gentle people.

    @heykoukla: Agree totally.


    Am rather wondering though if this isn't another New Zealand/Oz muddle, as the Maoris did do cannibalism on occasion in the past*. Maybe that's what she was referring to and it got misinterpreted. Not that, for the reasons you spelled out so clearly, it wasn't a rid-onk-culous thing to say anyway.


    * especially when being invaded by Empire-hungry Brits.

    I used to be mildly intrigued by American Apparel, and I wished I could wear their clothes. But their introduction of the "unisex" pant enlightened me to the fact that AA sucks. Hello, girls and guys have different junk, we need different pants. Unisex skinny jeans my (feminine) ass...
