  • Angelina Jolie MAY have given birth to twins in France this morning. Stay tuned. [Just Jared]

  • Is Sandra Bernhard over Madonna? Apparently she ranted about Madge at a show in Toronto, taunting celebs who brag about exercising for three hours: "Why don't you rub some salt in the wounds of the people who have to work 14 hours a day?" Plus! Madonna's been traveling from her home in Manhattan to rehearsals in Brooklyn and apparently her drivers "race like madmen" and run red lights to get her there and back. [Page Six]
  • Guy Ritchie is in New York now, too. And neither he nor Madonna have been seen wearing wedding bands. Madge's spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, says: "Madonna has rarely worn a wedding band over these last six years, so there's no secret message about that." [People]
  • But! This report says Guy is in the Big Apple to discuss finances, assess assets and plan out the divorce from Madonna, sigh. [Mirror]
  • Madonna's childhood home was destroyed by a fire over the weekend, and the blaze is "suspicious," uh-oh. [Breitbart]

I'm going to be using very expensive fabrics and finishes, lots of embroideries.'" [ElleUK]

The Posh Thickens? Welcome to the photo that captivated a nation. Over the weekend it caught the media agape: What, the papers asked simply, earnestly even, is up with those jeans? A few days into the news cycle and an issue of New! is spinning the development to bolster its assertion that Posh has "swapped diets" with Britney Spears. (Lest you doubt the airtightness of this story, Posh has not only been photographed recently in numerous Mexican restaurants, she has been befriending Eva Longoria. Who owns a restaurant!) Anyway, I'll scan all this for you when I get back, but in the meantime…developing

Posh's MJ Ads= Everything Wrong With Fashion? • $100 Undies Promise To Rip You Off

Are the Marc Jacobs ads with Victoria Beckham an example of everything that is wrong with fashion? Or has fashion "journalist" Liz Jones lost her sense of humor?• One more SATC analogy we don't need: HuffPo blogger calls for Obama and Clinton gals to "get on with it" (and "get it on"?). • "Is Google Making Us Stupid?" Yes, yes it is. • Encyclopedia Britannica will now allow public contribution to internet entries because nothing ruins a credible reputation like copying Wikipedia! • Valentine Vester, an English woman who helped create one of the poshest hotels in Jerusalem, dies at 96. • French truckers protest high fuel prices with "operation escargot," joining similar protests across Europe and South Korea. • $100 underpants promise to take off inches without exercise through baloney "micro massage" faux-science beauty bullshit. • Doris Day's controlling third husband may have caused the actress her sanity and was abusive to her son. • Keira Knightley's mother insists her daughter doesn't have an eating disorder, noting her actor father was much thinner than Keira was. • The birthplace of Kate Moss launches its own fashion week, celebrating with celebrity look-alikes!

long goodbyes

What We Talk About When We Talk About Fashion

Sitting down to write my "goodbye" post to you all was really tricky: What to say? What is there to say? I found no easy answers. But the last time I tried to do some meaning-making about my time at Jezebel, I didn't have the opportunity to share it with you all, so I thought I would take this opportunity now to do just that. Back in late March I was invited to speak at my alma mater, Tufts University, as part of a symposium they were hosting on the topic "Fashion And Its Discontents." My talk was, primarily, about you all, our readers, and what I think are the questions we have tried to ask — in particularly about how we choose to dress ourselves — together and what that process has led me to conclude. Starting below, I've posted excerpts from my speech (which was, I hope you will be proud to know, entitled: "'Victoria Motherfucking Beckham Is Here' And Other Stories I Never Thought I Would Write.' I was told by the symposium's organizer, a former professor of mine, that I am the first person to have used the word "motherfucking" in an academic lecture on the Tufts campus). I hope that maybe some parts of it will ring true for you, and that you will continue to share your feedback with me. It's you all who have made this experience so wildly unique and wildly incredible. More »

It's A Bird! It's A Plane! No, It's Anna Wintour's Dress

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute's annual gala: Oh, it happened all right. And though you now know who made it into the the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly category of "fashion's Oscars," we know you're just dying to know what the media themselves had to say about the yearly orgy of fashion and fame. (At the very last you're dying to know what hoity-toity critic-types had to say about Anna Wintour's Princess Amadala outfit, right? Right.) The best of the press' bon mots, after the jump. More »

Touch My Body UK paper The Sun has a body language expert break down the dynamics between celebrity couples. Tom Cruise has a "controlling hold" on Katie Holmes; David Beckham's fingertips on Victoria Beckham's wrist shows "sexual closeness;" Jamie Hince's arm around Kate Moss makes it "look like she's being taken to the vet." [The Sun]

Why Is Mariah So Shady?

  • Did Mariah Carey have an eye job or something? She won't walk down the red carpet without her sunglasses. If so, it's probably not her first procedure; her nose and boobs seem to have changed in the past few years. [Page Six]
  • Also: Mariah's been wearing a giant ring that gossipers want you to think is engagement-esque. And she's been hanging with Nick Cannon. [People]
  • David Bowie and Iman's 7-year-old daughter, Alexandria, listens to Hilary Duff songs, at which point "David just leaves the room," Iman says. "He thinks she should be listening to underground music." [ONTD]
