  • THE STYLE ISSUE the World's Wealthiest Clients Gather by The
    For Immediate Release: September 14, 2015 Press Contacts: Natalie Raabe, (212) 286-6591 Molly Erman, (212) 286-7936 Adrea Piazza, (212) 286-5996 THE STYLE ISSUE The World’s Wealthiest Clients Gather by the Mediterranean to Shop In the September 21, 2015, issue of The New Yorker, in “The Couture Club” (p. 76), Rebecca Mead reports from Portofino, Italy, where Dolce & Gabbana recently presented this year’s collection of Alta Moda—made-to-measure haute couture—by throwing an over-the- top, four-day event for an élite international clientele. Launched four years ago by Stefano Gabbana, fifty-two, and his business partner of thirty years, Domenico Dolce, fifty-seven, “Alta Moda consists of one-of-a-kind, made-to-measure pieces: virtuoso demonstrations of what can be achieved sartorially when the imagination of a designer and the spending power of his patron are given unconstrained ex- pression,” Mead writes. Since Alta Moda’s inception, the fall/winter collection has been shown outside of Milan. This year, Dolce and Gabbana threw the most ambitious Alta Moda getaway yet: a four-day weekend of fashion shows, dinners, and other festivities, culmi- nating in a dance party with a dress code of gold. “These people live in another world,” Gabbana—whose personal wealth, like Dolce’s, is estimated by Forbes to be more than a billion dollars—tells Mead, regarding the Alta Moda clients. “I don’t live in that world.” He adds that he was sometimes surprised by the extravagances that the clients took for granted. “I live in an apartment, I have three dogs, two cats— you know what I mean.” The Alta Moda presentation consisted of a fashion show in which ninety-four models each wore just one cou- ture outfit, which could then be purchased—at a starting price of around forty thousand dollars—by the first customer to lay claim to it after the show ended.

  • The Digital Money Shot: Twitter Wars, the Real Housewives, And
    CELEBRITY STUDIES https://doi.org/10.1080/19392397.2018.1508951 The digital money shot: Twitter wars, The Real Housewives, and transmedia storytelling Jacquelyn Arcy University of Wisconsin-Parkside, Communication Department, Kenosha, WI, USA ABSTRACT ARTICLE HISTORY This article examines the construction of reality TV fame through Received 15 June 2017 transmedia storytelling. In the convergent TV era, reality producers Accepted 16 January 2018 increasingly require that stars post-personal content on social KEYWORDS media, blogs, and online video sites. Rather than hire transmedia Reality TV; celebrity; content creators, television networks incentivise stars to generate transmedia storytelling; their own digital texts by placing them in competition with their gender co-stars for attention, status, and salary. This new industry strategy seeks to cut costs while extending viewer engagement. In the reality TV emotion economy, where the most effective path to fame involves dramatic self-disclosure, stars are representing the hyperbolic performance of misery, jealousy, and resentment online. Just as reality producers rely on participants’ performance of the ‘money shot’–a televised moment of emotional upheaval – the convergent TV industry requires a ‘digital money shot’–an online performance of dramatic emotions that drives transmedia engagement. To begin mapping the contours of the ‘digital money shot’, this article examines the multi-platform world of Bravo’s reality docu-soap franchise, The Real Housewives, and the prevalence of the Twitter war, a social media feud used to draw viewers to new media sites. This practice illustrates how performa- tive emotions and self-disclosure form the basis of Bravo’s trans- media strategy for The Real Housewives franchise.

  • Should You Move out of the Marital Home? Learn from Divorce Attorneys, Not the Tabloids
    Jeff Landers , Contributor PERSONAL FINANCE 6/11/2013 @ 9:37AM Should You Move Out Of The Marital Home? Learn From Divorce Attorneys, Not The Tabloids (Image credit: Getty Images for SELF Magazine via @daylife) Ashton and Demi , Arnold and Maria , Tiger and Elin, Katie and Tom, Heidi and Seal . It’s easy to come up with a list of high-profile divorces that have grabbed recent headlines, and not just on celebrity gossip websites, but even in more mainstream news. The break-up alone always warrants at least a few stories. Then, if divorce settlement negotiations drag on, media interest often expands into the less sensational, procedural details of the case. These stories can provide food for thought if you’re going through a divorce yourself, but if you read them, please proceed with caution. Celebrity divorce “news” can be a source of misinformation. Case in point: The latest entertainment headlines proclaim there’s a new wrinkle in the ongoing divorce of Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy, of reality TV fame. Frankel, the force behind Skinnygirl, and Hoppy, a pharmaceutical sales rep, filed for divorce in January, but reportedly, they are still living together in the $5M Tribeca loft apartment they moved into during presumably happier days. The couple has a daughter, Bryn, who’s almost three years old, and according to news reports, both parents have filed for primary custody of her. How (and why) Bethenny would endure the emotional stress and strife of sharing an apartment with her soon-to-be-ex on a day-to-day basis (not to mention the reported frequent extended stays by his parents) when she could afford to move to an equally luxurious setting elsewhere, is perhaps a question for another day.

  • Transmedia Storytelling, Corporate Synergy, and Audience Expression Leigh H
    Spring 2012 Global Media Journal Volume 12, Issue 20 Article 1 Transmedia Storytelling, Corporate Synergy, and Audience Expression Leigh H. Edwards, Ph.D. Department of English Florida State University Keywords Corporate Synergy; Transmedia Storytelling; Participatory Culture; New Media; Reality Television; Media Studies Abstract This article argues that transmedia storytelling evidences competing trends, exemplifying corporate synergy on the one hand while allowing for audience-generated participatory culture on the other. The essay examines these competing dynamics as well as new developments in transmedia storytelling across multiple media platforms. It assesses how well recent media theory has accounted for these transmedia storytelling trends. It also analyzes key examples, which include online interactive reality television and crowdsourced music videos. Introduction In assessing the current state of media conglomeration and corporate synergy, one key case study is the rise of multi-platform storytelling because it is a media trend that exemplifies corporate synergy. It is also important to examine the continuing development of related media practices such as crowdsourcing, mass customization, and user-generated content. All of these practices involve media production models that profit media conglomerates by coordinating among their different divisions, and they also entail monetizing how consumers try to interact with the media, turning fan behaviors into corporate profit, or seizing the democratic promise of new media for corporate gain. This analysis will address competing trends in multi-platform storytelling, from corporate branding to more audience-centered, creative uses of the media technology that allows for greater user access and agency. As I will demonstrate, while corporate branding dominates, and many transmedia texts reflect this dynamic, alternative practices are nevertheless present and proffer other potential uses of transmedia storytelling.
