Sorry but Gwyneth isn't the sole propagator of the idea that shampoo (amongst most things) cause cancer.

There are people who have been "no-pooing" and refraining from using makeup, and other off the shelf product because of this.

She is such a smug, condescending, and narcissistic person

Gah For Goop!

Gwynnie has gone from being Emma to Mrs. Elton. Obnoxious, self-aggrandizing, living in a fantasy world. The only people who can relate to her are movie stars and heiresses. Who does she think she's kidding? I am so over her.

@TheFormerJuneBronson: Ha! But really, her blog posts (or newsletters or whatever) actually say "My friends are always asking me for my corn bread recipe" or something to that effect. She can't hear herself. She is her own sycophant!

Dear Macy's,

Nordstrom Rack and Saks Off 5th are nothing special. Neither can compare with Filene's Basement, which is why it's so depressing that Filene's Basement is having trouble. You bought out the original Filene's department store, perhaps you can save the Basement?

Love,
hfree

(and yes, I know that Macy's does not own Filene's Basement, but a girl can dream for an FB rescue)

I thought TJMaxx and Marshalls got all the Macys brands...it seems that way anyway. It's not like Macys is that high end to begin with.

@tomatoheart: Well, FWIW, I do work with department stores. They fall into three categories: high-end, mid-tier, and mass market. Macy's falls into high-end (along with Nordstroms, which also has their own discount store, for example) so this makes sense to me and is also awesome.

I really really love Richardson's work, but it annoys me so much that Terryworld was always in the 'erotic' section of Borders. Guys, there is nothing erotic about his photos.

Bullshit on the excuses on no indian models. Pure and utter bullshit. London apparently has the second highest indian population in the world outside of india. And they could not find one? Even one? Sure, pull the other one.

Oprah: African-American, grew up in dirty South, struggled her way to the top.

Gwyneth: WASP, grew up in wealthy and prominent family, pretty much had success handed to her.

Yeah, I don't think America is going to embrace you in quite the same way, Gwynns.

@Understater: Because no one from a wealthy and prominent family has ever had a valid thought/opinion/idea before? There are many reasons to dislike GP (I guess) but coming from a successful family should not be one of them.

I was referring to the fact that the American public will have a harder time identifying with someone from such a privileged background.

Please read these things more critically.

@Understater: Meh, I sincerely doubt that.

Gwyneth may be annoying, but it's clear plenty of people buy what's she's selling. (GOOP, movies, that insipid TV cooking show)

Obnoxious = obnoxious, regardless of what class in which you're ensconced.

@Understater: I read it critically, and what I gathered was that you thought the American public will have a hard time because she's white and she comes from a successful family. I wasn't speaking of your opinion specifically.

@Understater: Though I agree that Americans love a rags-to-riches story, I don't think we're inherently averse to inherited wealth or even to a sort of homegrown aristocracy (witness the Kennedys). For my part I would be more specific about what's annoying about Gwyneth. It's the same thing (well, one of many) that annoys me about George W. Bush: Born on third base but thinks she hit a triple. Hence all her GOOPy advice handed down with apparently no clue that 99% of people would need to save up for a month, a year, or forever to afford the little things she picks up at boutiques for a lark.

I understand the photoshopping in jewelry ads. The focus of the ad is the jewelry, not the pores on the face of whichever celebrity is shilling the stuff.

This might be a stupid question but if $100 is the standard for an editorial shoot, when do models make actual money? Just ad campaigns?

@Fate'sBitch: As I understand it, the money is in catalogs and advertisements. That's why it's a big deal when a model gets a contract with a makeup company or Victoria's Secret or something similar, it means they're getting a regular pay check.

Thanks all, it's always made into such a big deal when a model gets an editorial shoot, I just assumed there would big money too. $100 seems like a shitty deal.

I see that Christina Aguilera is employing the same trick as every 16 year old on Facebook - using a really bright flash to completely wash out your features.

Christina, if that was the look you wanted, you could've hired my little sister to do your photo shoot to get the same effect for a fraction of the cost!
