RIHANNA HAS A DECEMBER GLAMOUR COVER, TOO


Michelle Obama isn't the only one with a December Glamour cover. She shares that honor with Rihanna, who speaks in the magazine about Chris Brown, that photo, and fashion:


In the first two years of my career, there were a lot of restraints on what I could do. I couldn’t wear certain colors of lipstick, like bright pink, dark pink or red; [my lips] had to be natural. Eventually, I stopped communicating with certain people at the label, and did exactly what I wanted to do. And that was to cut my hair, dye it black, change my clothes, change my sound. Really to just express myself ... My hairdresser just said, “I don’t feel like doing your hair anymore — I want to cut it.” I was like, Finally!


In other words, she became a diva.



LADY GAGA LANDS M.A.C. CAMPAIGN


Earlier this week, Lady Gaga attended the Accessories Council's annual ACE awards, where Marc Jacobs presented her with the Stylemaker trophy. You can see she earned it last night in her fall clothes: semi-thick tights and a long-sleeved velvet shirt. Naturally, she had a net of lace over her face to either make a scene or ensure she wasn't able to eat or drink anything there (maybe she's a spiller). Ironically, M.A.C. has just named Gaga a face for their AIDS Fund campaign, along with Cyndi Lauper. M.A.C. will make a Viva Glam Gaga Lipstick and a Viva Glam Cyndi Lipstick for $14 each, with all proceeds going to the M.A.C. AIDS Fund. So maybe now that she's the face of a makeup company, she'll have to wear less crazy crap on her head so she can properly shill. The lipstick goes on sale March 18.


FIVE MODELS JUST GOT ALOT MORE FAMOUS


Victoria's Secret just named five new Angels. They are Emanuela de Paula, Lindsay Ellingson, Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Chanel Iman. Current Angels include Heidi Klum, Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Miranda Kerr, Marisa Miller, andDoutzen Kroes. Adriana and Heidi are having babies, so the company needed some backup perfect people who had the requisite experience wearing underwear and the ability to walk a straight line with floor-to-ceiling feathered contraptions chained to their backs. Also, Heidi is only hosting the show instead of walking the runway this year, because one month is not enough time for her to get perfect again, post-delivery. The Victoria's Secret fashion show tapes in New York on November 19. A "real person" chosen from a countrywide model search should join the new and old Angels in their conquest of the world's most glittery runway.
