He, like quite a few of the super stars of soccer at this year’s World Cup, has been just a little off top form. In fact, we were still waiting to see what he was made of, when Portugal exited the tournament. While he was busy spitting at cameramen, he could have been doing this [...]

The pressure to be picture-perfect, excellently-well-dressed plus photogenic in upmarket clothing ads is hardly news. But sometimes the outrageousness and insanity of the photoshopping can stop the most jaded of readers, dead in their tracks. In Ralph Lauren’s world, for e.g, moppets are exquisitely groomed. They do not have snotty noses. Their hair is brushed, [...]
Jean Paul Gaultier has launched his first ever lingerie line, with La Perla. As a designer, he is perhaps most well-known for designing the iconic cone-shaped bras Madonna wore on her 1990 Blonde Ambition tour. This range is apparently less sculptural/attention-grabbing/outrageous. It’s pretty. And pretty pricey too. The 27-piece line will range from $600 to [...]
The Guru loves his PVR. Like many men of a certain age, he is really 14 years old and has happily entertained himself for hours during dull moments in soccer games by hitting stop, rewind and slo-mo.

In her latest interview with Vanity Fair Angelina says “I have a happy home… I got back from work last night, and everybody was playing music and dancing and I suddenly found myself dancing around with a bunch of little fun crazy people.” Translation: “Piss off all you jealous haters/tabloids/media/everyone.” She says Brad is, “good [...]

Alex Noriega is an illustrator living in Madrid, and I love him and his blog, “Stuff no-one told me (but I learned anyway.)” He says he has “poor grammar and spelling skills,” which is one reason why I love him. Here are some of the other reasons: From Stuff no-one told me (but I learned [...]
Watch Nike’s “Write the Future” Ad, again. The Irony! Next stop, for Wayne Rooney? The caravan, the beard and the job as a waterlogged linesman? Probably not. Sadly, he and the rest of England’s U9a team will not even be sent to the Tower of London. But, they will be reviled and will never live [...]
