*Diddy reveals that his new Sean John underwear model is none other than...

...Nelly. Hm, gimme a sec, let me wipe up that drool. Diddy explains, "
[Nelly] has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to … And let's be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign." THANK YOU!!!
*WWD reports that Karl Lagerfeld plans to debut a 52 minute documentary...

...directed by Thierry Demaizière and Alban Teurlai. “...
Featuring in-depth interviews with Lagerfeld, as well as footage of the designer in action, the film explores his life story, starting with his childhood in Germany” and “
sharing memories of his mother”. Hmh. I'm not quite sure how I feel about Karl anymore. After I read on
Cut, Sew, and Blog that Chanel shows have only featured two African-Americans over the past 17 collections, I'm tempted to cry foul! Karl is a genius, but something about Karl is now seeming a bit crotchety and
old fashioned. Read
this post on
Cut, Sew, and Blog, and let me know what you think.
*The
Blog Chic and Untrobled wonders where the models are after viewing Carla Bruni on the cover of Vanity Fair...

...Good question. The First Lady of France gracing a mag cover, rapper Nelly in an ad campaign. I'm not complaining, I'm just saying. [

Perez sez that magazine sales are way down:

..including lots of fashion pubs. Uh oh. [

In her defense she was once a model. I don't think it's a great cover and the comparison to Jackie O is a bit of a stretch. Not because I love Jackie O but Bruni dosen't have any iconic status.
