Grace Jones is back…yes!
The iconic model/musician hasn’t done a music video in 19 years, but by the looks of the video for Corporate Cannibal, she still hasn’t lost her ability to be fierce and scare the shit out of people all at the same time.
Corporate Cannibal is her first single off her upcoming album, Hurricane, due out in October.
Naomi Campbell and Stefano Pilati for ID Magazine
Crazy/beautiful supermodel Naomi Campbell is the new face of Yves Saint Laurent and she appears with designer Stefano Pilati on the cover of i-D Magazine (August).
The girl is batshit crazy, but you can’t deny she knows how to serve it in a photo.

A lot of focus has been on the lack of ethnic (read: black) models in the fashion biz, but other ethnic models are just as hard to find.
Of the handful of Asian models on the runway, Du Juan is at the pinnacle. She was crowned Miss China in 2003 but broke into the fashion big-time in 2006 when she walked in the Paris haute couture shows. She was the first Asian model to cover French Vogue and last year, closed the Fendi show at the Great Wall of China.
The IMG-repped supermodel has also done ad campaigns for Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, and appears in the latest GAP campaign for the limited-edition white shirts designed by CFDA winnders.
A lot of people may still call Du Juan an “up and coming” model, but in my opinion, the Shanghai-stunner has already arrived.

The supermodel Naomi Campbell escaped jail today when she was sentenced to 200 hours of community service for kicking and spitting at police officers during a foul-mouthed tirade aboard an aircraft waiting to take off from Heathrow.
A court heard that the 38-year-old screamed abuse at the captain of a British Airways flight after being told one of her bags had gone missing during the luggage chaos at the newly-opened Terminal 5 in April.
Campbell ordered the captain to get off the plane and look for her suitcase, holding up the flight bound for Los Angeles for almost an hour. When cabin crew eventually called police to remove her she refused to get off the plane and accused them of targeting her because she was black.
Campbell, who had pleaded guilty to assault, disorderly conduct and threatening behaviour, was also ordered to pay fines totalling £2300 and £550 in compensation to two police officers and the aircraft captain, Miles Sutherland. She had faced a jail term of up to six months for each count of assault.
Behati Prinsloo might not be the first face you think of when you hear the words “Namibian supermodel”, but that’s about to change now that the nineteen-year-old has been chosen as the new face of Victoria’s Secret PINK line.
Behati was discovered while on vacation in South Africa at the age of sixteen and plucked form her home country of Namibia to walk in shows from Zac Posen to Lacoste. She’s repped by Storm Models and has already done campaigns for H&M and Max Studio.
As supermodels go, Behati has quite a commercial look and doesn’t have as much fierce runway personality as a Coco Rochas or a Freja. But I’m loving that we’re going to see her amazing, wide grin all over the Victoria’s Secret runway and now all over the PINK campaigns.
