Billie Eilish doesn’t know who Van Halen are

by milotic2
KV

me neither



Billie Eilish's interview with Jimmy Kimmel last week is going viral after the singer said she didn't know who Van Halen was. Prompting users to call her out for not knowing the classic rock band.

The uproar reached the band itself, Wolf, the bassist for Van Halen, caught wind of the backlash, saying "If you haven't heard of Billie Eilish, go check her out. She's cool. If you haven't heard of Van Halen, go check them out. They're cool, too."

Are you cultured music wise, ONTD?

Mandy Moore Is All In For Pete Buttigieg!

by harrys_headband
KV

my eyes rolled so hard i’m blind now


Mandy Moore joined the Pete Buttigieg campaign this weekend to help spread the campaign's message of "inclusivity" with Pete's quirky husband, Chasten. New Orleans, a city that is 60% black, really drove home that message of Pete's "inclusivity" at a stop Mandy & Chasten made at Tulane (30% black/nbpoc) with this diverse crowd.





The Buttigieg campaign went hard on the "inclusivity" message this weekend by managing to offend Jewish people with flirty instagram posts focusing on how cute Pete is a Holocaust memorial, threatening to invade Mexico, taking credit for the brilliant handling of the Charlotesville Neo-Nazi rally that killed a woman, and lying about black South Carolinians endorsing his Douglass Plan, all the while focusing on "reaching out" to bigoted religious Republicans.

The Daily Show's Trevor Noah aptly described Pete's stellar 0% polling with African Americans as shown in three different polls from today.



Panic! at the Disco's "High Hopes" is making waves on Twitter again thanks to Buttigieg's campaign.









ONTD, do you have "High Hopes" for Pete Buttigieg? Will you be joining Mandy Moore?

Presented on the Cruise 2020 runway, the pointed-toe white leather ankle boot has a gathered effect that cinches with a thin leather strap and tie. A petite Double G detail at the back heel enriches the silhouette.

Yea or Nay, Darlings?

Karamo Brown And Sean Spicer Are Still Very Good Friends

by Allison
KV

UGH

When the cast of the 28th season of Dancing With The Stars was announced back in August, a whole lot of people were not feeling ABC’s choice to throw Sean Spicer into the mix. Even DWTS host Tom Bergeron was basically like, “*cough* stunt casting *cough*“. But Sean found an unlikely ally in his fellow DWTS cast member Karamo Brown, who is still clearly very much on Team Spicy.

After Karamo first grabbed his pom-poms and cheered on the sidelines for Sean Spicer by calling him a “good guy,” the internet responded by educating Karamo on just how allegedly good Sean Spicer is. Which is to say, not nearly as good as Karamo thinks, considering all of the times Sean lied for Trump. Karamo eventually deactivated his Twitter account.

Karamo was the 4th contestant eliminated on Monday night’s episode of DWTS, and he said his goodbyes after the show to a crowd of reporters. Because of some kind of haunted monkey’s paw wish, Sean Spicer is still on the show, despite having the lowest scores three weeks in a row. So Sean said goodbye to Karamo, and that’s when we got this moment:

Karamo said:

“This is America uniting right now. Okay? I’m just letting you know, this is America uniting. No one thought this was about to be happening, alright?”

If I was Karamo’s partner, I’d probably be thinking, “Well apparently we both look like clowns tonight.

People says that Karamo got even more mileage out of his friendship with Sean Spicer, by explaining to reporters that it was his goal going into the show to be an example of kindness to everyone, no matter their political affiliation.

“My goal coming into this was to introduce myself to people who have never seen Queer Eye, to let them know who I am. And also, my goal has always been to show how if you can show kindness and lead with love, things can change. Day one I got backlash [for supporting Spicer]. I started this show with people telling me, ‘You’re horrible, you’re crazy, you’re stupid.’ Because I showed someone who has a different political view than mine kindness.”

It kind of sounds like Karamo admitted that he dove head-first into this friendship in an attempt to get some new Queer Eye viewers in the right-wing red states. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a totally real and true friendship. Sean spoke about his “good friend” Karamo getting eliminated, and got teary while doing so.

Karamo claimed after his elimination on Monday that he worked really hard to open Sean’s eyes to all the shitty things Sean did in the White House, and Sean is totally a changed man. Maybe if Karamo spent more time in dance rehearsals and less time working some asshole rehab program, he might still be around? I don’t know, just putting that out there.

“Through this process, Sean’s trailer has been next to mine and I have literally every day been planting seeds in his heart. ‘When you made this comment, it hurt me as a man. When you made this comment, it hurt me as a person of color. When you made this comment, it hurt me as a gay man.’ And literally, I could see each week those seeds…blossoming and that’s why he got emotional [when I was sent home].

He got emotional because he’s realizing that I’m not someone you should be attacking in the media. I’m a human being. And if I can touch his heart, I’m about to go through and make a tour of Washington! I still want Trump out of office, but you know. That was the goal [with Spicer]. That was the goal.”

What Karamo said is probably not going to change the internet’s position on the matter. But that’s not to say everyone will hate it. I have a feeling Karamo is about to come home to find a gift basket with a note in Ellen DeGeneres’ handwriting that says, “Thank you for being the new face of tone-deaf gay people, I appreciate it.

BPD officers worked 9,000 hours at bigot march, but not a second was captured on body cams

Time to break up that old BPDA of ours, councilor says

by adamg
KV

hell yeah

West End before the BRA. From the BPL.

City Councilor Michelle Wu (at large), says this morning you can change its name all you want, but the agency that demolished the West End and continues to use political relationships and special exceptions to a creaky zoning code to benefit the well off is not what Boston needs in an era of accelerated growth.

Wu, running for re-election next month - and possibly for mayor in two years - will hold a meeting today to detail her proposal, starting at 5 p.m. at the Union United Methodist Church, 485 Columbus Ave. in the South End. Her report is online, at a URL that sums up her proposal: abolishthebpda.com.

"After two scathing audits in 2014 and 2015 revealed the extent of the then Boston Redevelopment Authority’s lack of accountability, little has changed - save for a $675,000 rebranding in 2016," Wu writes in a report on why the agency needs to be destroyed, its property returned to direct city control, its urban-renewal areas dismantled and a new planning agency be created to guide Boston's growth to better benefit its current residents and small businesses.

"The stakes are too high to preserve the status quo. The BPDA is woefully unprepared for the challenges facing this great city," she writes. "The people of Boston deserve better."

Bostonians have, of course, heard candidates discuss breaking up the then BRA before. One even made it a campaign pledge when he ran for mayor in 2013.

Billie Eilish Does What She Wants at the Clio Awards

by Lorenzo Marquez
KV

welp i love this

Just to give you a little bit of fashion whiplash, we’re going from Dame Helen arriving like an Empress to Billie Eilish, arriving in … this:

 

 

It’s very big, whatever it is. Also bright. But you can’t say it’s not a coordinated look, that’s for sure. You don’t accidentally or randomly step out in this getup.

But y’know? Go do that thing, girl. Go and wear that super-cray shit that causes all the grownups to scratch their heads or tut-tut. You’re seventeen. It’s practically your responsibility to do such things at your age. And if nothing else, you appear to be well-protected from the elements and even possibly a fall from a great height, which makes this ensemble practical on top of everything else.

Yes, that’s what this is. Good responsible, practical fashion. Attagirl.

Alex Trebek Is Going Through Chemotherapy Again

by Kristian
KV

Alex :(

ABC News has some sad news in the Fuck Cancer-front. Beloved television host of Jeopardy! and occasional straight up fucking SAVAGEAlex Trebek, has let us know that he is sadly going to be doing more chemotherapy after just recently still being in remission for stage 4 pancreatic cancer. It seems that his numbers are “sky high,” so Alex is going to be doing more rounds of treatment.

ABC says we should say a little prayer to our varying gods and spirits for Alex Trebek’s quick recovery and we should also use one of Lana Del Rey‘s witch spells on the Demon Devil of Cancer so that bitch can finally get what’s coming to him.

In an interview with Good Morning America, Alex talked to reporter TJ Holmes about his ongoing health issues. Alex has been open about his cancer treatment in the past, and was also recovering from a brain surgery early last year. Well, there’s more medical bullshit ahead for poor Alex Trebek:

“I was doing so well. And my numbers went down to the equivalent of a normal human being who does not have pancreatic cancer. So we were all very optimistic. And they said, ‘Good, we’re gonna stop chemo, we’ll start you on immunotherapy.’… [then] I lost about 12 pounds in a week. And my numbers went sky high, much higher than they were when I was first diagnosed. So, the doctors have decided that I have to undergo chemo again and that’s what I’m doing.”

Alex also opened up about being in excruciating pain” and “fatigued” by the medical treatments and that he’s now also grappling with depression which started when he was first diagnosed. He said he’ll randomly just feel a “surge of sadness.” He said:

“When it happened early on I was down on myself… I didn’t realize how fallible each of us is in his or her own way… I talk to the audience sometimes and I get teary eyed for no reason. I don’t even bother to explain it anymore, I just experience it. I know it’s a part of who I am and I just keep going.”

Alex says he’s come to terms with everything and it sucks, but he’s also an old guy whose done a lot and he’s more worried for the people he leaves behind:

“I realize that there is an end in sight for me, just as there is for everyone else. One line that I have used with our staff in recent weeks and months is that when I do pass on, one thing they will not say at my funeral is, ‘Oh, he was taken from us too soon.’ …Hey guys. I’m 79-years-old. I’ve had one hell of a good life. And I’ve enjoyed it… the thought of passing on doesn’t frighten me, it doesn’t. Other things do, the affect it will have on my loved ones… it makes me sad. But the thought of myself moving on, hey folks, it comes with the territory.”

But don’t think this means Alex is gonna roll over and leave Jeopardy! anytime soon, he will tell you answers that you will have to give him the question to until he physically can no longer hold a microphone:

“As long as I can walk out and greet the audience and the contestants and run the game I’m happy.”

I wish Alex the speedy recovery of a Goop-addict whose convinced themselves that their $80 He Shou Wu Sun Potion actually affects their overall health!

A Beautiful, Relaxed Home in Shades of Moss Green, White and Brown - Designed by Christine of @_forthehome

by My Scandinavian Home
KV

so dreamy! i hate the cloud light fixture trend though

Long before they were married, Christine (AKA @_forthehome) and Shawn would find themselves spending their weekends decorating Shawn's teeny tiny starter home in Old Brooklyn, Cleveland, Ohio. It wasn't a planned thing, they would simply suddenly find they had paint brushes in their hands or were roaming a flea market or spending the day renovating an entire room! Fast forward several years and the duo have several renovations under their belt as well as a wonderful home full of treasured finds and an entire nursery of plants. Did I mention that they also have seven pets?! Welcome to the wonderful moss green, white, beige and brown world of Christine and Shawn! 




Christine spent a day painting the fireplace (AKA known as 'Mama'!) in a blend of greenblack and urbane bronze paint from Sherwin Williams. Love the results - and love the idea of putting my mind to a project and just getting it done - I've got SO many projects I keep putting off at home, how about you?! 

The Abstract 835* print is similar. 



We have the same rubber tree plant in our house - it was originally Per's grandfathers. I tell you - that thing can survive anything, and it grows so fast! It looks really pretty in the corner of this room!

Tiles from Daltile, cabinet from Arhaus

I'm currently working on a project with Velux and it's taught me so much about skylights and how they can completely transform a space. Look how they flood the bedroom with light! Do you have any in your home? 

There's a chance this picture is from Shawn and Christine's previous home, but I couldn't resist including it anyway as that mirror is absolutely beautiful! Little wonder it went completely viral on instagram! I've just seen it's on sale right now too - will someone snap it up on my behalf?! 


Such a cosy home! And it's really inspired me to get going on my own home. Hmmm. Where to start?!

See more pictures from Shawn and Christine's wonderful home and follow their latest styling projects on instagram (@_forthehome) and their blog www.forthehome.blog

While in Ohio - how about also checking out:


I'm at home with Allie today as she's not feeling very well, poor thing! We're under a big blanket and it's raining outside  - I'm typing  - and she's watching her favourite YouTubers (do your kids only watch YouTube these days too?). Not very high brow, but kind of cosy for a Tuesday in sick bay!

Ha det fint!

Style File: Liv Tyler Sticks to the Plan at the Venice Film Festival

by Tom and Lorenzo
KV

love that stella dress and uh there's that amazing youtube video of her skin care regimen in case you missed it before lol this is a liv tyler fan blog now

We don’t get to cover Miss Liv nearly as much as we’d like, since she’s got kind of a quirky sort of awkward style that belies her model looks and bearing but nonetheless seems to work really well for her. But she’s got a Big Important Film out hitting the festivals and rushing headlong into awards season, so you can expect to see quite a bit more of her in the months ahead.

 

 

Liv Tyler Arriving at Hotel Excelsior

Love this. Maybe we’re giving her too much credit, since this comes off a lot like fussy officewear, but there’s an easy sort of chicness to it and besides, you don’t want to show up looking too over-styled or curated when disembarking from a boat is involved. We’d have rec’d sandals over the business-like pumps, though.

 

Liv Tyler in Stella McCartney at the “Ad Astra” Photocall

Again: it’s borderline dowdy and could come off looking a lot more mumsy (mumsier?) on a different wearer, but there’s something about the long black hair and dramatic lip that makes it seem fresher. Again, though: wrong shoe. A brightly colored sandal in a matching tone would’ve worked so much better and looked more modern.

 

 

 

 

Yes, that’s all well and good and Brad is heading into Oscar season with heavy buzz on two different roles, but much more importantly, if you’re bored or just need to watch something soothing, you can do a lot worse than spend 25 minutes watching Liv explain her skincare routine. It’s like hanging out in a really nice bathroom with your super-chill friend who has nothing but amazing stories to tell:

Bill Skarsgård in Burberry at the “IT Chapter Two” Los Angeles Premiere

by Tom and Lorenzo
KV

ugh i’m annoyed that i mostly like this

As with our earlier post about Nathalie Emmanuel doing the damn thing, sometimes you’ve gotta respect a hard-working celebrity’s fashion-based response to a host of image-campaign issues. Bill here has to come out strong for this final promotional round in service to his most famous role but he’s also got to show that he’s got unforgettable star quality. And it wouldn’t hurt to remind people of those enviable Skarsgård genes. How to do all that? Come out looking fine, looking hot, and looking just a bit off from the norm.

 

 

Damn, clown.

It’s a stunning suit. Those who hang onto our every word (which is everyone, no?) will note that we have a long history of bemoaning the business suit or the undertaker’s suit on the red carpet. It’s less about the somber or neutral colors and more about the shape and style of the suit. We have no problem with a black suit on the red carpet so long as it’s fine, impeccably fitted and offers one or two details to set it apart from a Secret Service agent’s uniform. With this look, the buttons on the jacket and the matching shirt and tie take this somewhere completely unexpected. It’s chic and sharp, but it also has a slightly funhouse effect. Things aren’t where they’re supposed to be, stripes are both matching up and clashing at the same time. A subtle, elegant madness.

Lena Dunham Writes About Her Interior Decorating + Why Jack Antonoff Left

by frejasface
KV

she has pretty good taste in furniture but that’s east to acquire when you’re insanely rich

lena dunham ontd.jpg

Lena Dunham wrote an essay about her emotional connection to interior decorating, and why Jack Antonoff moved out. Details:

bulletpoint.png Lena's parents constantly moved to different mansions, townhouses, condos and lofts when she was a child, but:

"My mother would be mad if this made us sound like we had a lot of money to hurl around"

(Her mom's current home is a Colonial home in Connecticut that has artwork from Richard Prince and Matisse.)

bulletpoint.png Lena bought a pre-war apartment in New York when she was just 26.

bulletpoint.png Jack Antonoff did not care for Lena's decorating taste, and she did not want to compromise with his taste.

bulletpoint.png Lena wanted pink walls, artist-designed furniture, designer pillows, pastel dishes, a pile of vintage Harlequin novels, and all her tchotchkes. He wanted light gray walls, a Restoration Hardware couch, and an oversized clock.

bulletpoint.png But it was his fault. Lena says, "But he didn’t like living among the insides of my mind."

bulletpoint.png Lena also let the dog pee wherever it wanted on the floor.

A Look at RL Stine's Slasher Series Fear Street

by ellie_andrews
KV

wow what a throw back




* perfect for kids too old for Goosebumps and too young for Stephen King

* Fear Street books, despite "their soapy dialogue and ramshackle plotting, delivered on death."

* Stine wasn't just into gruesome deaths (hello, Bobbie getting boiled alive in The First Evil), he was also just plain weird. As evidenced by a shark vs dog fight in Sunburn.

* the appeal is easy to see: short, straightforward, teenage themes, wacky. a sharp contrast to the recent YA dystopia trend.

* trilogy of Fear Street movies are set to be released in "close proximity" to each other. But can soapy teen horror hold its own against art-house horror like Midsommar or Jordan Peele movies?

* Lindsay Katai and Kelly Nugent of the Teen Creeps podcast are also interviewed. I HIGHLY recommend their show especially the episode where they interview author Grady Hendrix (My Best Friend's Exorcism, Paperbacks from Hell) about YA horror.

Ava DuVernay, Aunjanue Ellis, Marsha Stephanie Blake, Niecy Nash at “When They See Us” LA Screening

by Tom and Lorenzo
KV

living for Aunjanue’s suit tbh

COME THROUGH, queens. Take your victory lap. Look fabulous doing it.

 

 

Ava DuVernay in Hyke

She’s one of the few non-acting directors whose red carpet appearances we cover, mainly because she has a dramatic and consistent sense of style, which means she has a natural knack for using fashion in this sort of promotional manner. We like this for being somewhat simple, but it really needed a metallic leather belt, not that fabric sash.

 

 

Aunjanue Ellis

If we’ve got this sussed out correctly, she’s wearing a jacket over a matching jumpsuit. With a print as loud and vibrant as that one, a little visual breathing space was needed. A black jacket would’ve been our rec.

 

 

 

Marsha Stephanie Blake in Theia

Just a simple “Yes, I am a movie star” gold metallic dress with matching sandals. A classic that’s impossible to get wrong.

 

 

Niecy Nash

And then there’s the Empress of Fit, serving curves to beat the gods. It’s a simple dress, but the power is all in how she fills it.

 

 

They look great together. Not matchy, not even coordinated, but distinct and complementary. That’s how it’s done.

Another Thrifted American Girl Doll!

by Heather from PennilessCaucasianRubbish Dolls Blog
KV

Please like and subscribe to my blog I need more followers


Doll Friends!

It must be my lucky month because I found another American Girl Doll this week at Goodwill! She was only $19.99!! I have her all cleaned up and she is actually in my most current store window because I just had to show her off...! Then the desk, in the photo above, I bought a while ago but can't recall if I showed you? It was only $3.99 and will match so well with the other furniture in Heather Doll's Bedroom





I also found this Madame Alexander doll for only $1.99. She's quite a mess and I haven't had a chance to fix her up yet but I will... I think she's got a sculpt I don't think I've seen before from Madame Alexander...? I'd love your thoughts? 



I also got this bag of Build a Bear clothes for only $2.50! There was a tshirt in there that I think is worth that much... So, good deal!


Then there is the stuff I left behind...


This fountain was amazing but very heavy and I'd already spent my fun money for that day and so it stayed there...


A Disney Princesses Doll. I had some of these but weeded them out because they were a totally different body type and therefore clothes style than my other 18 inch dolls and... I only have so much room. 


Then I saw this cute dance studio for the small dolls but... 
Space! Only so much!
Gotta run!

“Batwoman” Star Ruby Rose in Dior at CW’s Summer TCA Party

by Tom and Lorenzo

is this me? is this lisa rinna?

We’ve been doing this job long enough to remember a time when someone showing up to a CW party in head-to-toe Dior would have been considered overdressed or trying too hard. But times change and if there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years, the celebrity promo machine’s arc always bends toward every greater and more grandiose ways of showing off both product and star. In other words, the stars wear couture to walk down the street now, so this is no big deal.

 

And hey, as the first lesbian actress to star in her own series as a lesbian superhero, we can’t blame Miss Ruby for wanting to represent a little by turning it out on the fashion front. We don’t like the sheer skirt at all, but the look overall really suits her. It kind of gets weirder the longer you look at it – the frayed check, huge leather waist cincher, dangling D, sheer skirt, and shorts are quite the combination. But somehow, it works for her. We’re not sure who else could’ve pulled this one off, but . we figure no one should try now. She nailed it.

Femme One Day, Stud the Next: How Some of us Defy the Mainstream Binary

By DNA Co.

The more queer women recover from the femme/stud dichotomy, we are discovering a love for fluid presentations.

A lot of lesbians and bi women have been categorized as “lipstick
lesbians,” “femmes,” “studs,” or “stems” based largely on their
fashion choices. Some people take pride in their labels, while others believe labels should be left for clothes. Either way, style isn’t necessarily always about dressing girly or butch. You can be girly or butch if you want to, but you don’t have to be. Some people find comfort in switching back and forth between traditionally masculine and feminine clothing. It can be a freeing and fun way to experiment with your wardrobe. Below are a few outfit ideas for those looking to change up their summer looks. 

A Dash of Dapper

Buttoned shirt and tapered pants/shorts

This is a classic tomboy outfit that’s perfect for any time of year, especially in the summer with short sleeved cotton shirts. If you’re feeling a bit bolder, definitely go for vibrant prints in your buttoned shirts. Buttoning the shirt up all the way up (top-button swag) can also help elevate your look. White chucks or any other sneakers pair perfectly with this outfit too.

Colorful/patterned suits

Fitted suits are already a popular dapper trend, but reaching for a brighter color like red can definitely make you stand out. Different patterns like tartan or plaid can help you change up your style too. Bralettes and suits both match really well and are a different way to dress up. Three-piece suits are another classic.

A Touch of Femme

Midi-dresses or oversized shirts


Midi-dresses and oversized shirts are comfortable in length and have a certain street style look when worn with sneakers. These outfits are simple, because the dress or shirt is the whole look. There’s also a large variety in the kinds of prints, patterns, and colors you can choose. If you have white sneakers especially, any dress can easily match with them.

Comfy rompers or jumpsuits

A summertime favorite for a reason, rompers and jumpsuits are also cohesive outfits that don’t require a lot of effort. If you stick to cotton or linen fabrics, you’ll be both stylish and comfortable. Feel free to play around with textures and patterns like chambray or stripes to fit your specific look too. These outfits can be paired with sneakers or sandals.

Keeping it Casual

Ripped Jeans and T-shirt

When it comes to casual outfits, ripped jeans and a T-shirt are a staple. Not only are they comfortable, but they’re also edgy in a subtle way. They’re super versatile too. You can dress them up with a formal top or formal shoes like oxfords, or you can keep it more casual with a baseball tee or simple colors. Any kind of shoes work with this outfit, but if you’re looking for a style upgrade, go for boat shoes or patterned slip-ons.

Athleisure

When all else fails and you’re staring at your closet like you have nothing to wear, athleisure is the perfect go-to. Not only is it a popular trend, but you can wear this kind of clothing in any way you want. You can make it your own by choosing bright or neutral color schemes. Aside from color, you can mix patterns and go for a baggier or looser fit too. It’s a really stylish way to be comfortable.
