Dear Poll: Pick Your Celebrity Gossip Girl

DearSugar — Tue, 27 Feb 2007 03:00:00 -0800

Sunday mornings, after a big weekend, I always look forward to getting coffee with my best friend or gabbing on the phone with my mom. Certain people gossip better than others and just naturally know how to be playful and fun without being petty or mean-spirited.

In Hollywood, there's an endless supply of gossip. A night out, a new dress or a haircut can fuel talk for days. If you could trade stories or gossip with any celebrity about silly girl stuff, who would you choose and why?

FabSugar Exclusive: Alexis Bittar Is Gossip Girl's Favorite Accessory Designer

FabSugar — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 14:00:22 -0800

We caught up with Alexis Bittar at his Neiman Marcus trunk show recently. He's super dreamy, as you can tell from his photo (center). And so friendly, it was comfortable, like we'd met before. Read what he had to say about his biggest fans - Fab fave Cameron Diaz and the Gossip Girl stylists - as well as how he got his start.

What sparked your interest in jewelry?

I sold antique jewelry on the street [at the 26th Street flea market in Manhattan] for 15 years. I started working with Lucite, I just pounded it, started carving it. I actually don’t know how I put it all together in my brain, but I liked that you could sculpt it. It’s pretty cheap - in the beginning I had no money. It seemed like an experimental medium. And I like working with mediums that aren’t typical. When I first saw it, I loved it and I still love it. Guys like it, too; they’re into the science of it, they’re trying to figure it out. It took a long time - the beginning was a bit difficult, then certain key people used it, and it slowly took off. When the millennium happened there was thing of perceiving everything differently and it became the new.

Gossip Girl Tech Quiz: Episode Three, "The Lost Boy"

GeekSugar — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 05:47:10 -0700

In last night's dramatic episode of Gossip Girl, there was champagne and celebration mixed with deception and drama amongst our favorite Upper East Siders. We learned that Scott is actually a love child from Lily and Rufus, Chuck is diving into the hotel business, and Serena is making a go of it with Carter (who I'm going to nickname "Cheating Carter"). Whether it's texting or talking on their cell phones, these New Yorkers always have their gadget gear close to them. Let's see how well you were paying attention to last night's episode with our tech quiz!

Michelle! Claudia! Two More Celebrity Fashion Lines in the Works

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:00:22 -0800

The celebrity designer wheel keeps on turning. The latest star to join the club is Gossip Girl Michelle Trachtenberg. She is teaming up with Coach to design a costume jewelry line under its Poppy label - faux pearls and colorful crystals hit stores in the Spring.

Though there isn't an official deal in the works, Super Claudia Schiffer has also expressed interest in designing. "I have no definite first product in mind, but I would love to do cashmere. It's something I wear all the time myself, but I'd love to do something a bit more price-friendly. . . . Or I could imagine doing handbags," she said. Cool, but not everyone is thrilled with these celebrity designer deals. According to fashion writer Robin Givhan, "I can't imagine Donna Karan saying I'm going to cut an album because her friends say she can sing karaoke." Ouch. Do you agree?

Leighton, Ashlee and Jessica Show Their American Eagle Pride

PopSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:30:47 -0800

A handful of starlets hit the red carpet last night to celebrate the grand opening of America Eagle's new flagship store in NYC. The Gossip Girl crowd was well-represented, with Leighton Meester cozying up to Michelle Trachtenberg and Jessica Szohr. Adrian Grenier, Pete Wentz, and Ashlee Simpson were also out to browse the offerings at the new space in Times Square. Ashlee was able to see Pete man the DJ booth between rehearsals for Chicago, and her sister Jessica is getting "chillibumps" just thinking about Ash's Broadway debut.

Pete wasn't the evening's only entertainment - Leighton Meester donned a pair of kaleidoscopic leggings to perform four songs, including her single, "Somebody to Love." You guys aren't sure what to make of Leighton's racier styles, but she really threw her all into the performance. Good things seem to be happening for American Eagle, and it looks like they've already recruited more than a few famous fans.

More photos of Leighton, Michelle, Adrian, Pete and others at the American Eagle flagship store opening so read more.
