I know Longs is just trying to make a name for itself with its cheeky slogan, but seriously: Anything? They might want to watch where they advertise.

Gus Van Sant and Bret Easton Ellis to Pen The Golden Suicides

BuzzSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 10:31:46 -0700

A couple years ago, the art world was rocked by a pair of deaths when Jeremy Blake and his girlfriend Theresa Duncan committed suicide within days of each other amid allegations of paranoia and harassment by Scientologists. Dubbed "The Golden Suicides" by Vanity Fair, the tragedy attracted attention because of the beauty and glamour of the couple, their friendship with musician Beck, and the mystery surrounding their passing.

Their compelling story is now getting the movie treatment: Gus Van Sant and Bret Easton Ellis are working on a screenplay together for a film based on the Vanity Fair article.

I was personally fascinated by the article and the lives of Duncan and Blake when news of their suicides broke (I'd actually seen one of Blake's exhibits at the SF MoMA years before). I think Van Sant and Ellis will give considerable weight to this dismal subject matter - Van Sant is coming off of Milk, and Ellis is the author of heavy, zeitgeisty tomes like American Psycho and Less Than Zero.

CasaSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 08:30:32 -0700

I recently showed you how to get the look of some of Gossip Girl's fabulous interiors, and mused over the Waldorfs' choice of chairs. But surely that's not enough to satisfy your desire for Gossip Girl style. InStyle was recently welcomed into the new fictional home of the Bass and van der Woodsen family, and has an awesome 360 degree virtual tour of the fab digs, as well as a shopping guide to help you get the look. Shown here is the Bass/van der Woodsen living room, sure to be the scene of many parties. As you can tell, it's very modern, with some traditional touches like turned wood. And of course, the fashion-centric show makes a nod to the design gods with a Prada sign hanging by the entrance.To see a sneak peek of the set, check out this slideshow. Source

Hello Nasty: Jewelry Made Out of . . . Human Teeth and Hair!

FabSugar — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 07:50:22 -0800

People fashion some crazy things, and human teeth and hair jewelry are the latest materials being used. But Australian Polly van der Glas has some fans - she received the Craft Victoria Fillipo Raphael Fresh! Award for her work. All sterling silver pieces are hand-made in Melbourne and the designer is currently taking donations for teeth, since they're hard to come by. But don't fret, the molars are sterilized and the hair is locally donated or sourced from India or China. Does that put your mind at ease? If you can stomach it, proceed.

Selfridges Host a Charity Garage Sale

FabSugarUK — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 03:30:39 -0800

Selfridges got in to the festive spirit early this weekend as they hosted a charity garage sale to raise money for Mothers4Children. Plenty of celebrities lend a hand sorting through the clothes and getting involved in the event. Louise Redknapp, Jodie Kidd, Yasmin Le Bon and soon-to-be-Mum Denise Van Outen were amongst those offering help. There was an 800 strong queue waiting for it to open and a pair of shoes once owned by Shirley Bassey went for £100. Seems like red antlers are going to be a hot trend throughout the festive season!

Kim Kardashian Is Latest Face of Carl's Jr.

YumSugar — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 05:50:27 -0800

Guess who's joining the ranks of Paris Hilton, Padma Lakshmi, and Audrina Patridge as Carl's Jr. spokesperson? None other than reality show temptress Kim Kardashian.

Kardashian is teaming up with the burger chain - known for its risqué commercials - to promote its new premium salads. It'll be the first commercial spot the company has done for a menu item that's not a burger. The reality TV star tells People that while she's a healthy eater today, she has a number of fond memories involving Carl's Jr.

"Driving to Las Vegas, my dad would take the family and we'd stay at Circus Circus and we always stopped at Carl's Jr," she says.

"I remember this food fight my sisters and I all had in the back of the van – it was so funny. We got in so much trouble!" Do you think Kim Kardashian and Carl's Jr. will make for fun viewing?
