Paris Hilton Slaps Some Weave In Her Head And Gets Sued For It


Tell me Glamazons: how does one get sued for wearing weave in their head? Well, just ask Paris Hilton. I swear it seems that this girl can do no right when it comes to handling up on her business in life. According to a recent post on people.com, the starlet is being sued for $35 million by the hair extensions company Hairtech International, Inc. They manufacture the Dreamcatchers hair extensions line that Paris signed a representation contract with in 2007. Apparently she doesn't think highly of their brand of weave because the company claims she was spotted wearing someone else's...scandalous! In addition, Paris missed a launch party for the company in 2007 due to the fact that she was locked up in the slammer.
But wait: unless the Hairtech sent out weave spies to follow Paris around, how in the heck would they know if she was wearing another company's weave or not?! Do those exist? Weave spies?! ahahahaha
Here she is pictured above at the fragrance launch party for her newest fragrance, Tease. (She's paying homage to Marilyn Monroe hence the short platinum blonde hair and super red lips. If you ask me, she just looks trashy..and did she get a boob job?!)

Betsey Johnson Announces Plans To Launch A Second Fragrance...and Makeup!


Let me start this post off by telling you that I love, love, me some Betsey Johnson! From the clothes she designs to the consistent energy she conveys, I think she's such a fab inspiration.
While I was toiling away at WWD as a beauty writing intern (i.e. still one of the best jobs I've ever had!) about four years ago, I was asked to interview her at the launch of her first signature fragrance. (That's us pictured above..please don't judge my physical appearance..I was a hot mess back then hahaha)
She was super gracious, kind and funny and (even though she wears crazy colored outfits and her hair in pigtails sometimes) very level-headed. So, how excited was I to see that the fashion designer has signed a seven-year contract with Inter Parfums, Inc. to create fragrances, personal care products and color cosmetics?! (Beyond excited since I'm obvs a fan...duh.)
Although sales for this fragrance tanked, she's ready to get back into the saddle by launching a new one next month.
"I think that after some kind of clothing existence, a designer needs a fragrance," she told WWD. "It's just like you have dessert after dinner."
The unnamed fragrance will be a modern interpretation of the first fragrance she created in 1982. No other details about the fragrance have been released, other than her stating that "it aint gonna be au naturel, sweet, foodlike-like chocolate-[or] patchouli."
Also unknown to many, Johnson created a small color cosmetics collection back in the eighties which included red and hot pink lip and nail polish.
"I grew up in heavy stage makeup because I studied dancing with a brilliant Broadway showgirl," she told WWD. "So I love makeup. For a designer, makeup is part of everything your customer wears, ideally, from head to toe."
Much like her recent Fall 2010 show, I'm sure that her upcoming fragrance and cosmetics collection will be fun and full of color.

Kim Kardashian Gets New Beauty Deal


She's slowly graduating from the world of reality television to becoming the queen of endorsements. We're talking about none other than the lovely Kim Kardashian.
Beauty brand Fusion Brands, Inc. has signed Kim as the new face for FusionBeauty Colorceuticals collection. She will serve as the official face for their their upcoming advertising campaign (premiering this spring) as well as make several in store appearances. Kim first partnered with the beauty brand back in October with the launch of Fusion Brands' long term lip plumping gloss Lipfusion Infatuation. Here's what she had to say about her new role:

"Fusion Beauty is a smart, sexy, forward-thinking company that continues to push the boundaries of the beauty industry. I deeply admire them for their beauty innovations and commitment to philanthropy and I'm so excited to represent a brand that I have been a long time fan of."

At the rate she's pushing, she may as well just go ahead and start her own cosmetics line! (Which we're sure that she's probably in the process of doing.)
