@Gretchen: Eh I'd say it's pretty much common courtesy to make sure everyone involved knows if a shoot's been cancelled. Models get forgotten and treated like shit all the time, even if they're Kate Moss. I think she's got a right to be pissed.
@kelsium: All the more reason to make the confirmation call. I've taken gigs through management and/or agents that have treated me like crap but a gig is a gig. If I think the possibility exists, I confirm everything. Twice. No need to set yourself up, and never expect 'common courtesy' from anyone.
@bowleserised: I think it was a combination of the two. But I remember seeing her perform with a glittery headband on before I saw anyone in Hollywood start.
@bowleserised: @Archetype: I know hipster is a dirty word around here, but those of that fashion persuasion have been wearing headbands for awhile now (Natasha Khan most likely an influence). Plus, Mischa is faux-hipster - think faux-punk Avril, so it all makes sense.
Haha. When I read that little bit about Nicole and Mischa, I immediately thought about the epic Jan and Marsha Brady feud:
Mischa always has the good ideas. Mischa is so pretty and tall. She comes up with incredible ideas like headbands. She gets everything. Mischa, Mischa, Mischa!!!
When reached for a quote, the Spokesheadband for Headband Local 21 said, "We don't want either Ms. Barton or Ms. Ritchie on our team. Can't they go and ruin scarves or something? What did we ever do to you people?"
Regarding Versace's comment.....I have to argue with this. Someone recently bought me a really nice pair of designer shoes that were ridiculously expensive. I never would have purchased them myself, and although they are lovely, I feel just as good in a pair of $50 heels. If those heels are cute, of course. It's really rare that I see a piece of designer clothing and the quality, design, tailoring or fabric makes it worth the 4-figure price tag.
Did Nicole Richie rip off the idea of shilling crappy-looking headbands from Mischa Barton?! A "source" says yes! "Mischa is furious...She feels like Nicole completely copied her idea.
In related news: I thought up the idea of wearing shirts with pants. I am so pissed at the rest of you for copying me.
@tscheese: It could be a good thing you missed the whole HS trend of wearing pajama pants to school WITH the slippers. We would have had to send paramedics.
@TheFormerJuneBronson: @mcdougalwitz: We've all been horribly wronged! I see BabyJane (below) pioneered wearing shirts with pants and I've been unknowningly copying her since FOREVER.

1. Pick up your phone
2. Call to confirm the gig
3. Do this BEFORE you leave
If you think this mundane task is beneath you, make sure one of your minions has it on their schedule. I'm sure they'll be eager to please.

Tom, get a light face lift in your 50's and don't get anything else done. It's the only way, sorry.
Why is PETA so.....bitchy?
