Star Trek
My run-in with Kim Kardashian AND Chanel Iman
When I saw this underage fashion icon, I assumed that she was who everyone was peeking in on, but she was only the opening act. The main event was sexpot Kim Kardashian of the reality series Keeping Up with the Kardashians on the E! network. She is one of those celebs who doesn't seem to have really done anything to become a household name, similar to her one time bff Paris Hilton, yet she is quickly becoming a force in Hollywood - she is an example of branding at its finest! She made it on the scene by being the daughter of the late Robert Kardashian, the famout lawyer who defended O.J. Simpson a few years back, but became more buzzed about when a scandalous sex tape of her and R&B singer Ray-J (Brandy's little bro and star of For the Love of Ray-J on VH1) was leaked to the public. Recently, Kim has appeared on the cover of Playboy, been a contestant on ABC's Dancing with the Stars, and has been in a long-term relationship with NFL player Reggie Bush. On this particular occasion, the Dash doll was wearing a black one-piece jumpsuit with black patent open-toe heels. What Kim is perhaps most famous for is her heavy-duty booty (half the reason I wanted to see her was to understand the actual size of this legendary rear-end in person,) but after taking a good look, I must say that while her bum is certainly not small, I probably wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't a big part of her celebrity identity - she just looks curva-licious, but I guess by Hollywood standards her ass needs its own manager. I came so close to asking her to take a picture with me, but was advised by my friend Amaya to keep it cool...
! Major Scoop ! This Kard-ASS-ian sported a lightened-up version of her signature dark chocolate locks - the new hue is, in my opinion, a major downgrade! As a brunette myself, I often wonder how I would look if I lightened my hair a few shades, and the new tint of K.K.'s tresses is what I picture as my worst nightmhaire! It's that orangey color that happens when rich espresso-colored haired girls try to lighten up at home, it's the sun-in gone oh-so wrong! Thank god it's only a wig! As K. Dash wrote on her blog:
"I Went Blonde! - It's a wig! Did I have you fooled? I did a fabulous photo shoot this weekend... Chuckie Amos did the hair and transformed me with this blonde wig and they put this hair piece on! I haven't taken it off since, because I'm really loving the look. I've been wearing it around New York and everyone thought it was my real hair! It's making me want to dye my hair and maybe go lighter for the summer. What do you think? Should I dye it for real?"
Please no, Kim! and I answer without hesitation! Stick with the exotic beauty look you've got going with the luscious dark look you've always had ...
Any suggestions on how a brunette can change the tint of her tresses without looking like a confused carrot top?
My run-in with Kim Kardashian AND Chanel Iman
And this time YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST! - before even Perez and E! News!
Today I was walking around SoHo when I saw a big crowd of paparazzi crowded outside the Intermix on Prince Street ... so naturally I had to see what the commotion was all about! Once I was finally in (because it was as exclusive as Bungalo 8 circa 2000 - I'm talking a bouncer at the door taking 2 people in at a time) I knew why the scene was so crazy. Walking around, first I saw teenage supermodel Chanel Iman. In person, Chanel is, first-off extremely beautiful, but without the flashing lights of the camera bulbs, and the heavy runway makeup, she looks so young and innocent. However, knowing she is only nineteen years old, her sophisticated chic-ness definitely reminds one that she is worldly, privileged, and jaded. Additionally, I never cease to be amazed by just how thin these models are - especially the young ones like Chanel - prepubescent, so no curves: no hips, no muscles, just twiggy and towering, like a bare tree in winter. But nonetheless, Chanel Iman was definitely frail but fabulous.
