  • ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY Interview for Not Making It Clear That He Wasn't the Father of the Baby She Miscarried Last May
    Love's Story The combative singer-actress embarks on a legal skirmish with her record label that may change what it means to be a rock star. Oh, and she also has some choice words about her late husband's bandmates, her newfound ancestry, Russell Crowe, Angelina Jolie... By Holly Millea | Mar 25, 2002 Image credit: Courtney Love Photographs by Jean Baptiste Mondino COURTNEY LOVE IS IN A LIMOUSINE TAKING HER FROM Los Angeles to Desert Hot Springs on a detox mission. "I've been on a bit of a bender after 9/11," she admits. "I've got a lot of s--- in me. I weigh 147 pounds." Which is why she's checking into the We Care colonic spa for five days of fasting. Slumped low in the seat, the 37-year-old actress and lead singer of Hole is wearing baggy faded jeans, a brown pilled sweater, and Birkenstock sandals, her pink toenails twinkling with rhinestones. On her head is a wool knit hat - 1 - that looks like something she found on the street. Last night she sat for three hours while her auburn hair extensions were unglued and cut out. "See?" Love says, pulling the cap off. "I look like a Dr. Seuss character on chemo." She does. Her hair is short and tufty and sticking out in all directions. It's a disaster. Love smiles a sad, self-conscious smile and covers up again. Lighting a cigarette, she asks, "Why are we doing this story? I don't have a record or a movie to promote.

  • A Denial the Death of Kurt Cobain the Seattle Police Department
    A Denial The Death of Kurt Cobain The Seattle Police Department Substandard Investigation & The Repercussions to Justice by Bree Donovan A Capstone Submitted to The Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University, New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies Under the direction of Dr. Joseph C. Schiavo and approved by _________________________________ Capstone Director _________________________________ Program Director Camden, New Jersey, December 2014 i Abstract Kurt Cobain (1967-1994) musician, artist songwriter, and founder of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band, Nirvana, was dubbed, “the voice of a generation”; a moniker he wore like his faded cardigan sweater, but with more than some distain. Cobain‟s journey to the top of the Billboard charts was much more Dickensian than many of the generations of fans may realize. During his all too short life, Cobain struggled with physical illness, poverty, undiagnosed depression, a broken family, and the crippling isolation and loneliness brought on by drug addiction. Cobain may have shunned the idea of fame and fortune but like many struggling young musicians (who would become his peers) coming up in the blue collar, working class suburbs of Aberdeen and Tacoma Washington State, being on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine wasn‟t a nightmare image. Cobain, with his unkempt blond hair, polarizing blue eyes, and fragile appearance is a modern-punk-rock Jesus; a model example of the modern-day hero. The musician- a reluctant hero at best, but one who took a dark, frightening journey into another realm, to emerge stronger, clearer headed and changing the trajectory of his life.

WWD has learned that Kering, previously PPR, has taken a minority stake in Altuzarra. The deal closed Thursday, two days before the designer shows his FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 2013 ■ $3.00 ■ WOMEN’S WEAR DAILY spring collection in New York. At his Howard Street studio Thursday afternoon, as he was in the midst of WWD fi ttings, he was excited but admittedly tired. “It’s been a superexciting week because [the Kering deal] was all coming together and the collection came in,” said Altuzarra, wearing a T-shirt and camoufl age pants, as Vanessa Traina and various design assistants went through the racks of the spring collection. The designer declined to disclose Kering’s percent- age interest in his company, but emphasized that “it was very important for me to keep [Kering] a minority stake at this point and for us to keep control of Altuzarra. They were incredibly supportive of that decision and Building really understanding of it, and that was also very rare.” “We are delighted to invest in Altuzarra to ac- company the development of this promising fash- ion house,” said Alexis Babeau, managing director, Kering Luxury division.

  • Bonequinhas De Luxo: Um Olhar Sobre a Tirania E O Prazer Nas Revistas De Moda
    UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DE MINAS GERAIS CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA BELO HORIZONTE 2010 CARLA MARIA CAMARGOS MENDONÇA BONEQUINHAS DE LUXO: UM OLHAR SOBRE A TIRANIA E O PRAZER NAS REVISTAS DE MODA Trabalho apresentado ao Programa de Pós‐ Graduação em Comunicação Social da Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais como requisito parcial para a obtenção do título de doutor em Comunicação Social. Orientador: Prof. Dr. Paulo Bernardo Vaz BELO HORIZONTE 2010 Resumo O objetivo desta tese é analisar de que forma a moda, por meio da mídia revista, enforma os corpos e subjetividades femininos. No entanto, discute‐se também um paradoxo instaurado na relação entre os periódicos impressos e fenômeno da moda: o prazer estético gerado por textos verbo‐visuais com pretensões de incitar o consumo. Dessa forma, entende‐se que há um movimento que tenta formatar as possíveis leitoras enquanto mulheres, naquilo que são e aparentam, mas ao mesmo tempo é entregue a elas objetos que primam por levá‐las a mundos de sonho e deixá‐las mergulhar em inúmeras possibilidades que em nada se assemelham à dureza do cotidiano. Para aprofundar nesse paradoxo, foi realizada uma pesquisa que buscou compreender a moda enquanto comunicação, suas relações com a estetização do corpo e do cotidiano e os usos que os sujeitos fazem de sua indumentária. Buscou‐se também compreender as dinâmicas de instauração do jornalismo feminino, do qual o de moda torna‐se sinônimo, para que fosse elucidada a emergência e importância das imagens na tarefa de tornar a moda pública e consolidá‐la tal qual a conhecemos.

  • Oscar Host Ellen Degeneres Is Ready to Dance Cuaron's Oscar Nod
    lifestyle SUNDAY, MARCH 2, 2014 Pharrell, U2, Idina Menzel rock Oscar rehearsals aving the nation’s No 1 song does not exempt an artist from Oscar rehearsals. Pharrell Williams ran through his Hcatchy hit “Happy” more than half a dozen times Friday in preparation for the Oscar telecast. He even shared the spotlight with a spate of stars: Jamie Foxx, Brad Pitt and Kate Hudson showed up to rehearse while he was on stage. All I care about is the fun,” Williams said to Hudson, who boogied in the audience as he practiced his dance-heavy number. A choir of high-school students and 20 professional dancers accompany his colorful performance. Also rehearsing Friday: Broadway star Idina Menzel, who’s set to sing “Let It Go” from animated film nominee “Frozen”; U2, which is nominated for its song from the Mandela movie, “Ordinary Love”; and rocker Karen O, who is nominated for “The Moon Song” from best-picture nominee “Her.” Menzel was awed by the technology that allowed the Oscar orchestra, playing off- site at the Capitol Records building, to coordinate with her live at the Dolby Theatre. “Hi, Bill, can you hear me?” she said into the microphone at conductor William Ross, whom she could see on a monitor from inside the theater. “I’m trying to get that telepathic vibe with you because I’m alone up here and this is my first time (on the Oscars). “You look very handsome,” she added. Karen O, front woman of the rock band Yeah Yeah Yeah’s, took notes from director Spike Jonze as she practiced her performance, “The Moon Song” from his best-picture nominee, “Her.” “Spike just asked me to hold the mic a little bit lower, so I need a little more level,” she told a sound engineer.
