Not into sitting through the entirety of Grey Gardens or just too cheap to spring for HBO? No worries. You can check out Drew Barrymore’s colorful (we’re talking huge floppy hats and head scarves galore!) transformation into Little Edie in these rather artsy frame-by-frame screen caps documenting the sartorial craziness. We think Lady Gaga must be taking notes…
Speaking of crazy, we swore we’d never wait in line for skinny jeans again after our Topshop opening experience. We’re still talking about it in therapy. Read More »
Click through for more of Swedish artist Erik Johansson’s distorted photography, including an image of him ironing himself flat (which reminds us of one of the creepy characters in Beetlejuice).
The trailer for Paper Heart hit the web earlier this week, and we think it’s all sorts of magical, albeit not in a Where The Wild Things Are sort of way. Winner of this year’s Sundance Film Festival’s Waldo Salt Award for Best Screenplay (uh, did we mention the film was mainly unscripted and improv?), it features Michael Cera, whose awkward-lanky-white-boy-with-over sized-headphones-you-didn’t-notice-from-high school shtick still makes us laugh. But the real reason we want to see the flick is his co-director/lead actress, who’s about to blow up — Charlyne Yi. Read More »
There’s been a lot going on this week. Maybe the sunshine is bringing out the crazies. Ashton is a Twitter god, Woody Allen hates American Apparel, Jamie Foxx, 41, talks smack on Hannah “little white bitch” Montana, the list goes on… But the story that got us Flavorpillers in a tizzy has nothing to do with celebrities. It concerns the latest overnight web phenom known as the Hipster Grifter. Read More »
“And it’s definitely not true what women say about just wanting a man with a sense of humor. What women mean is they want a guy with a sense of humor who is really handsome. If a girl had a choice between Brad Pitt or me, she’d pick Brad Pitt. And I’m a lot funnier than he is!”
- Seth Rogen on the whole “personality matters” thing to the Telegraph. He apparently didn’t find Pitt as funny as we did in Benjamin Button; we’ve been croaking out “I’m seven but I look much older” ever since.
From the one and only David LaChapelle’s “Jesus is my homeboy” shoot for i-D Magazine. Click through to see a very sexy Mary Magdalene pic.
Today at Flavorpill, we drooled over Madge’s Upper East Side Double-Wide. (She’s come a long way from the girl who ate bags of popcorn in Alphabet City.) We discovered the modern-rock haters, PRE-DURST. We thought the world might be ending thanks to Amy Winehouse’s rider demands for Yorkshire tea and a sober crew (OK, and some tequila. Attagirl!). We couldn’t decide which new store is cooler: Nike, Puma or Adidas. We wondered where all of you fall on our Spectrum of Online Friendship. We wished we had a bike to take to get blessed. Do unicycles count? We examined the carbon foot print of printed books. We wished we had an iPhone so we could read the Wall Street Journal for free. We wondered who would spend 2K on Prince’s purple iPod. We booked our tickets to Cleveland, thanks to this compelling travel video. And finally, we watched the trailer for the new Harry Potter flick. Whaddayathink?
Oh, the life of being a single twenty something in New York… Whether you’re tripping over sprawled out bodies at the Whitney or filming a scene while being tied up in a bathroom covered in fake blood (we hope it was), you may find your Cultural Missed Connection in the most unpredictable of scenarios. Because coffee-shop romance is so obvious. Read More »
Holy flannel, Batman: Hot on the heels of announcing that he’d been working on being less of a self-centered annoyance, Kanye “I’m not actually a huge douche” West has us a bit worried. First he posted a picture of himself on his blog with Jared Leto and Brandon Flowers. Three of the biggest celebrities-turned-try-too-hard-to-be-hipsters in one room? AHH! Read More »
