By means of this lawsuit, Ms. Jarosik seeks to halt and obtain redress of 8 the sexual assault and rape committed by Defendant Simmons against her person. 2.

In line with Defendant’s history of sexual exploitation that permeates 2 the music industry, Ms. Jarosik experienced firsthand, being preyed on by defendant 3 Simmons. 4 7. Defendant Simmons has historically thrived on the sexual exploitation 5 of young women trying to break into the entertainment and music industry, in which 6 young female artists are falsely promised opportunities and advancement by 7 experienced and well-established men in power in the industry, with their careers in 8 jeopardy if they resist the sexual overtures of these powerful men. 8. These specific instances of predatory and hostile conduct are just the tip 9 of the iceberg of sexual harassment rooted in power imbalances. A number of 10 women, some of whom were minors at the time of the alleged incidents, have 11 accused Mr. Simmons of sexual harassment, sexual assault and rape. Women who 12 said they had been sexually harassed or assaulted, including attempted rape by Mr. 13 Simmons include, Ms. Kelly Cutrone, Ms. Keri Claussen Khalighi, Ms. Lisa Kirk, 14 Ms. Toni Sallie, Ms. Amanda Seales and Ms. Natashia Williams-Blach. Women 15 who said they had been raped by Mr. Simmons include, Ms. Jenny Lumet, Ms. 16 Sherri Hines, Ms. Tina Baker and Ms. Drew Dixon. 17 9.

Plaintiff later moved to LA. 17 18. On or about August 2016, Plaintiff was invited by Defendant to his 18 home in Los Angeles, on . When Plaintiff arrived, defendant asked 19 Plaintiff to have sex,Deadline whereupon she responded “no”. Mr. Simmons got aggressive 20 and pushed Plaintiff on his bed. Plaintiff tried to force Defendant to stay away from 21 her and in doing so, Defendant knocked Plaintiff off his bed, and Plaintiff hit her 22 head and then Defendant pounced on her while she was still in shock and fear, and proceeded to rape her. 23 19. Plaintiff then disclosed this information only to a few close friends like 24 Martin Dunkerton, her film director and Gene Lo, her editor. Plaintiff felt somehow 25 it was partially her fault since she was not strong enough to resist. 26 #TimesUp. 27 4 COMPLAINT FOR DAMAGES 28 Case 2:18-cv-00621 Document 1 Filed 01/24/18 Page 5 of 10 Page ID #:5 1 20.

    FASHIONING GENDER FASHIONING GENDER: A CASE STUDY OF THE FASHION INDUSTRY BY ALLYSON STOKES, B.A.(H), M.A. A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND THE SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES OF MCMASTER UNIVERSITY IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY c Copyright by Allyson Stokes, August 2013 All Rights Reserved Doctor of Philosophy (2013) McMaster University (Sociology) Hamilton, Ontario, Canada TITLE: Fashioning Gender: A Case Study of the Fashion Industry AUTHOR: Allyson Stokes BA.H., MA SUPERVISOR: Dr. Tina Fetner NUMBER OF PAGES: xii, 169 ii For Johnny. iii Abstract This dissertation uses the case of the fashion industry to explore gender inequality in cre- ative cultural work. Data come from 63 in-depth interviews, media texts, labor market statistics, and observation at Toronto’s fashion week. The three articles comprising this sandwich thesis address: (1) processes through which femininity and feminized labor are devalued; (2) the gendered distribution of symbolic capital among fashion designers; and (3) the gendered organization of the fashion industry and the “ideal creative worker.” In chapter two, I apply devaluation theory to the fashion industry in Canada. This chap- ter makes two contributions to literature on the devaluation of femininity and “women’s work.” First, while devaluation is typically used to explain the gender wage gap, I also address symbolic aspects of devaluation related to respect, prestige, and interpretations of worth. Second, this paper shows that processes of devaluation vary and are heavily shaped by the context in which work is performed. I address five processes of devaluation in fash- ion: (1) trivialization, (2) the privileging of men and masculinity, (3) the production of a smokescreen of glamour, (4) the use of free labor and “free stuff,” and (5) the construction of symbolic boundaries between “work horses” and “show ponies.” In chapter three, I use media analysis to investigate male advantage in the predomi- nantly female field of fashion design.

  • Kelly Cutrone: the Lady in Black
    Fabulosity- Kelly Cutrone: The Lady in Black Written by Written by Corbin Chamberlin Most know Kelly Cutrone as the “fashion-PR-vampire-like” character on MTV’s The Hills and The City. Known for her decisive work ethics and habit of mutilating interns, Kelly is a legend in the fashion community. She began her company People’s Revolution in 1996; It has since grown into one of the largest PR firms in the world. People’s Revolution brands emerging designers and works with established designers like Chado Ralph Rucci. People’s Revolution is also responsible for producing client shows during New York fashion week. Under all that black Maison Martin Margiela badass attitude is a hardworking mother with pure motives. Many thoughts come to mind when thinking about Kelly: intense, spiritual and real. What you see is what you get. I have never been so excited for a book to be published than I have been for If You Have To Cry, Go Outside: And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You. Kelly tells tales of the dog-eat-dog fashion business as well as offers real advice for “young women and gay boys” like how to create a personal brand and how sometimes you have to fake it to make it. When I met Cutrone while in New York, I instantly knew that she deserved her own TV show. Now the public has the grand pleasure of seeing the real (and sometimes unpolished) world of fashion PR, Bravo’s Kell On Earth. This is not a show about lunching ladies or prancing blondes.

  • Marcel Duchamp / Andy Warhol.’ the Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
    CULTURE MACHINE REVIEWS • SEPTEMBER 2010 ‘TWISTED PAIR: MARCEL DUCHAMP / ANDY WARHOL.’ THE ANDY WARHOL MUSEUM, PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA. 23 MAY-12 SEPTEMBER 2010. Victor P. Corona Had he survived a routine surgical procedure, Andy Warhol would have turned eighty-two years old on August 6, 2010. To commemorate his birthday, the playwright Robert Heide and the artists Neke Carson and Hoop organized a party at the Gershwin Hotel in Manhattan’s Flatiron District. Guests in attendance included Superstars Taylor Mead and Ivy Nicholson and other Warhol associates. The event was also intended to celebrate the ‘Andy Warhol: The Last Decade’ exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum and the re-release of The Autobiography and Sex Life of Andy Warhol (Wilcock, 2010). Speaking with some of the Pop artist’s collaborators at the ‘Summer of Andy’ party served as an excellent prelude to my visit to an exhibition that traced Warhol’s aesthetic links to one of his greatest sources of inspiration, Marcel Duchamp. The resonances evident at the Warhol Museum’s fantastic ‘Twisted Pair’ show are not trivial: Warhol himself owned over thirty works by Duchamp. Among his collection is a copy of the Fountain urinal, which Warhol acquired by trading away three of his portraits (Wrbican, 2010: 3). The party at the Gershwin and the ‘Twisted Pair’ show also provided a fresh opportunity to explore the ongoing fascination with Warhol’s art as well as contemporary works that deal with the central themes that preoccupied him for much of his career. Since the relationship between the Dada movement and Pop artists has been intensely debated by others (e.g., Kelly, 1964; Madoff, 1997), this essay will instead focus on how Warhol’s art continues to nurture experimentation in the work of artists active today.
