Kate Moss believes one of her tattoos is worth millions. The supermodel has revealed the late world-renowned artist Lucien Freud did the inking of two birds on her lower back and thinks it is probably worth a fortune.
The 38-year-old beauty told Vanity Fair, "He told me about when he was in the navy, when he was 19 or something, and he used to do all of the tattoos for the sailors. And I said, 'Oh my God, that's amazing.' And he went, 'I can do you one. What would you like? Would you like creatures of the animal kingdom?' I said I liked birds and he replied, 'I've done birds. I've got it in my book.' And he pointed down at a painting of a chicken upside down in a bucket. And I said, 'No, I'm not having that.' And then he said, 'Maybe I should just do you.' And I thought, I'm not going to have a girl on my a***. So we decided to do a flock of birds. I mean, it's an original Freud. I wonder how much a collector would pay for that? A few million? If it all goes horribly wrong I could get a skin graft and sell it! It's probably the only one on skin that's still around, because when he was in the navy he was about 19. Can you imagine?"
The model became close to the acclaimed artist when he painted her in the nude while she was pregnant with her daughter Lila Grace in 2002. The painting was sold to an anonymous bidder at auction in 2005.

New Marc Jacobs Ad Shocks, Humors
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Fashion Designers, Videos,
With fashion advertisements constantly pushing the boundries of what's acceptable to show to the public, it comes as no surprise that Marc Jacobs - a brand that has recently been slammed for portraying Dakota Fanning a la Lolita style in a fragrance ad - would come out with a sunglasses ad featuring a man who appears to be masturbating in public.
Seen above, the man - who was discovered to be an employee from the brand's retail store in SoHo - is initially seen from behind, making a movement with his right arm which indicates that he is pleasuring himself in the middle of a park. The ad then cuts to a frontal shot of him, and it is revealed that he is merely cleaning his sunglasses. Before leaving the frame of the shot, he gives the camera a wry smile.

Versace to Revamp Lady Gaga’s Tour Wardrobe

Lady Gaga has asked Donatella Versace to reinvigorate her tour outfits. The "Judas" hitmaker has revealed the Italian fashion designer will be giving her stage outfits a "face-lift" when her Born This Way Ball world tour reaches North America in January.
"THE BORN THIS WAY BALL is getting a face-lift for America. I heard rumors @Versace IS CUSTOM DESIGNING ALL THE CLOTHES AND NEW LOOKS. (sic)" she wrote on her Twitter.
The 26-year-old eccentric pop star is a huge fan of Versace's striking designs, and she recently stepped out in the iconic safety-pin dress first worn by Elizabeth Hurley in 1994. Donatella is known for giving garments a feminine and risque flair, so Gaga - who has memorably worn a meat dress and worn a Kermit the Frog outfit - can expect some revealing new stage outfits to show off her curvier figure.
(FYI - You can also follow Chic Dish on Twitter.)
After spending six years at Elle - four of which she held the coveted Style Director title - Kate Lanphear is parting ways with the magazine.
"Kate is an extraordinary talent and we thank her for her many contributions during her six years at ELLE. We wish her the best of luck in her next chapter," a spokesperson for the magazine said.
There's no word yet as to where Lanphear will be headed next, although she is rumored to have been called in for an interview at The Wall Street Journal. Then again, a humorous Twitter post from Debbie Needleman perhaps suggests that Lanphear may be headed over to join her at T.
Which editorial chair do you think Lanphear will end up?

Lara Stone and David Walliams Expecting Their First Baby
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Models, News,
David Walliams and Lara Stone are expecting their first child together. The comic actor has announced his model wife is pregnant and insists the couple couldn't be happier with the news.
"Some wonderful news. My beautiful wife Lara is pregnant. We are having a baby! It is due next year and we both couldn't be happier. Dx (sic)" he wrote on his Twitter.
David, 41, and 28-year-old Lara started dating in September 2009 and got married in May 2010.
Earlier this year, Lara revealed she and her husband had been practicing for parenthood by caring for their pet dog Bert - whom they adopted last Valentine's Day. Speaking about their beloved mutt, she jokingly said, "We love him. A baby will probably never be as fun as Bert."
Lara also recently revealed she thinks she and Little Britain star David have a great relationship because they share a similar sense of humor and are both strong-minded individuals: "I think people like it when you have a bit of personality. It helps that I am not afraid to say what I want to do and what I don't want to do."

"I have so much respect for John [Galliano]'s technical skill and the fantasy, it's just something that I don't find relevant now, especially when it restricts a woman, because in every other area they have so much freedom."
- Dior's new creative director Raf Simons comments on his predecessor, who was famously fired earlier this year over a public anti-Semitic rant.

Annie Leibovitz Shoots ‘Les Miserables’ Cast for Vogue
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Editorials,
As if there wasn't enough publicity for Tom Hooper's upcoming film adaptation of Les Miserables, Vogue just had to have noted fashion photographer Annie Leibovitz capture the cast for their glossy pages. Admittedly, the content is right up Leibovitz's dark, dreamy alley, but they all basically look like the film's posters - with a more elaborate backdrop. Well, maybe except for the fact that Anne Hathaway does actually look like a dying prostitute (seen after the jump) in these photos.
The editorial - which also features Amanda Seyfriend, Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Helena Bonham Carter, Sacha Baron Cohen, and Isabella Allen - will appear in Vogue's December issue, clearly to coincide with the film's December 25 release date.

Did Kristen Stewart raid Rihanna's closet?
The 22-year-old actress appeared at the premiere of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 2 in a nude, sheer Zuhair Murad number paired with Jimmy Choos. Aside from the fact that the nude color doesn't compliment her fair skin, the shape and excessive sheer paneling are not doing much in her favor, either. Should Kristen return to her more sophisticated, masculine looks, or is this new style working for her?
(Check out more questionable fashion looks here.)

Kate Moss used to dress her brother up as girl. The 38-year-old supermodel says she's always been into fashion and as she didn't have a sister, she used to put her sibling Nick in her clothes and call him Sylvia.
"I definitely liked clothes. I used to dress my brother up in looks, as girls. His name was Sylvia. I used to dress him up and make him come to the door and knock and say, 'Is Kate coming out?' to my mum. I've got a picture of him. He had a beauty spot, fake boobs, and everything - very Liz Taylor. My brother didn't mind. He found the picture and framed it for me. 'Kate, Love always, Sylvia.'"
While Kate - who has 10-year-old daughter Lila Grace from a previous relationship and is married to Jamie Hince - enjoyed her childhood she says she always knew she wanted to get out of hometown Croydon, south London: "My brother still lives near there and he doesn't really go to pubs there, it's so rough. But it was quite fun growing up there because it is so rough. There's street stuff going on. Everyone used to hang out in parks and have fights and go to the cinema and have fights. Bit of fight culture in Croydon. I don't mind a fight. What I wanted to get out of was the whole thing of, this is it. This is what life is. I never had that feeling of, that's your lot."
Items Du Jour: KStew Wears Victoria, Everyone Forgets How to Dress Well at EMAs

+ Although Kristen Stewart seems to favor t-shirts and sneakers when not on a publicity tour, but she cleans up quite well when she is! Although she doesn't seem too much of a Victoria Beckham fan, Stewart looked great in an orange number from the popstar-turned-designer's eponymous line at an appearance on Live with Kelly and Michael.
+ EMA host Heidi Klum may have worn Versace the whole night of the event, but not all of them seem to be the best of fashion choices. The same goes for the rest of the stars that evening - Lana Del Rey wore the most plainest black dress while Kim Kardashian looked like she was wearing a train of black trash bags.
+ Want a pair of heels you might have seen on display at the Victoria's Secret fashion show? Unfortunately, designer Nicholas Kirkwood says he's not selling them - unless you want to special order some through his stores, of course. He also seems to hint at the possibility of collaborating with the lingerie giant in the future.
