Charlotte Jackson is a dynamic force reshaping the luxury fashion industry with her bold vision and unapologetic advocacy. A former actress and singer, Charlotte has transitioned from the spotlight to becoming a powerhouse behind the scenes, emerging as a key influencer in the high-fashion world. A familiar face at Paris Fashion Week, she moves effortlessly within the elite circles of iconic brands like McQueen and Stella McCartney, leveraging her platform to challenge outdated industry norms and champion inclusive representation. As the founder of The Curve Authority, Charlotte is on a mission to redefine luxury fashion by centering plus-sized women and those over 50, proving that personal style transcends size, labels, or age.Through The Curve Authority, Charlotte has become a trusted consultant for some of fashion's biggest names, offering critical insights to help brands navigate an evolving market and connect with untapped audiences. Her platform was born from her own experiences as a curvy woman navigating the exclusivity of Fashion Week, travel, and entertainment, where she recognized a glaring gap in designer offerings for plus-sized women. Far from settling for extended sizes, Charlotte demands fashion-forward, luxury couture that celebrates curves as the inspiration, not an afterthought. Her vision extends beyond consultation—The Curve Authority is poised to evolve into a lifestyle brand encompassing clothing and media, amplifying her message of empowerment and inclusion.Charlotte's advocacy also targets the often-overlooked demographic of women over 50, who wield trillions in spending power in entertainment and media, according to Nielsen and AARP. She emphasizes that representation drives purchasing power—when women see themselves reflected in fashion, they're more likely to invest. Her firsthand observations at exclusive brand events underscore this truth, fueling her push for designers to cater to this influential market.Beyond her work in fashion, Charlotte's multifaceted talents shine through as an accomplished chef and creative producer, infusing her endeavors with passion and purpose. Her journey, whether on stage, in the kitchen, or at the forefront of a fashion revolution, is defined by impact and expression.

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has packed the past few days with controversy, spectacle, career maneuvers, and headline-grabbing stunts that only keep her at the center of pop culture's social media swirl. Just this week, at New York Fashion Week, JoJo sent shockwaves across runways and TikTok when she strutted into Christian Cowan's Spring Summer 2025 show wearing that viral furball outfit. Imagine neon green furry boots, monster faces included, and a gigantic puffy midsection that divided both fashion critics and internet fans. According to OK! Magazine, her hair and makeup matched the green accent, and what really caught attention was her sheer confidence—haters flooded the comments, but even some of her harshest critics had to admit the ensemble was iconic.On social media, JoJo doubled down by sharing the entire look with her usual unapologetic bravado, sparking a meme storm but also drawing new admiration from fans who see her boldness as “epic behavior.” As those videos ricocheted around Instagram and TikTok, they reinforced JoJo's status as both a lightning rod and a fashion risk-taker.Her globe-trotting continued with tour announcements and music promotion. JoJo jet-setted through Poland—where her track “Yesterday's Tomorrow's Today” climbed the local charts—and London, before landing back in LA and then New York. She even claimed she was in talks to represent Poland in the Eurovision Song Contest, but BBC reports that Polish organizers flatly denied any such conversations, suggesting JoJo may have pushed PR a bit too far with that one.Publicity around her Infinity Heart Tour—set for European cities including Dublin's Academy on September 29—has now kicked off on TikTok, with fans buzzing about what surprises she might bring to the stage. Meanwhile, her personal life remained up for public dissection: Earlier in the year, JoJo's relationship with Australian actor and content creator Kath Ebbs made waves, including an Instagram-official post, but according to AOL, the couple split after JoJo's stint on Celebrity Big Brother UK. Kath later shared on TikTok that the breakup happened at the show's afterparty, marking another viral heartbreak that kept gossip columns fed.Despite constant rumors—like a romantic reunion in London with Chris Hughes, which JoJo laughed off on a morning show—she insists he is just one of her favorite people. Business talk is simmering too; TikTokers hint JoJo has new ventures brewing, though official details remain tightly under wraps.Finally, her recent cover of “Bette Davis Eyes” generated mixed reviews online, with some fans loving it and others unleashing parodies, proving her knack for staying relevant isn't slowing down. Whether it's fashion, romance, or relentless reinvention, JoJo Siwa's last few days have only amplified her enduring ability to shock, divide, and entertain at the same time.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

NZ Fashion week finishes today in Auckland. Having had a tough few years, there's a sense the fashion world in New Zealand is banding together, even seeing the return of one of its big global stars - alongside some surprising new ones! RNZ's lifestyle and entertainment reporter Serena Soloman speaks to MIhi about the catwalk debut of several greyhounds.

The photo world is filled with remarkable young and up-and-coming talents. They often don't get the visibility they deserve, so we created Next Frame—a new monthly series aiming to shine a light their way. These bite-sized episodes are equally inspired by the guests we speak with and the invaluable contributions of local creative arts programs that have played a key role in their development. We're launching this series with photographer, filmmaker, and boxing & music aficionado Josh Nass, an alumnus of Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media programs. From nailing his Photoshop skills while still in middle school to trading in his boxing gloves for a camera during college and beyond, Josh regales us with practical tips about both the successes and challenges all young creatives must face as they transition from trading pictures for access to molding media skills into a profitable career. Looking back on his early days chasing both music and fashion scenes, Josh notes, “Your main role as a photographer—especially with talent and famous people—you know, I thought I was just making them look cool, but I'm making them money. I'm marketing them for their next tour, for their current tour. Looking back, I've learned a thing or two about how to get users' attention online.” Guest: Josh Nass   Episode Timeline: 2:04: Baltimore/DC-based photographer Josh Nass talks about first picking up a camera to fill his time after hanging up his boxing gloves. 3:40: Leveraging social media to get on stage and photograph his favorite Caribbean singer, then trading free pictures for ongoing access. 7:25: Navigating one's comfort level as an up-and-coming photographer, plus making a distinction between comfort with gear and social ease with subjects and clients. 9:08: Making pictures of cool moments, creative editing decisions to draw out the cool factor, and being first to deliver the files are all key to Josh's success. 14:02: Street hustling at New York Fashion Week to gain access to photograph top artists and celebrities, and the tough lessons Josh learned in the process. 19:06: Josh's connection to Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media and the formative role their programs have played in his early photography success. 22:50: Being referred by Wide Angle for a Comcast commercial, and the backstory to what transpired behind-the-scenes.  29:49: Josh weighs future career options and whether he'll choose to pursue photography full time.  35:40: Essential advice for emerging photographers: Prioritize building your skills and don't overvalue your work early on. Plus, a look at Josh's first big paid gig for a Keke Palmer concert and marketing campaign.    Guest Bio: Josh Nass is a Baltimore/DC-based freelance photographer and a senior at the University of Maryland, College Park, where he's pursuing a bachelor's degree in information science. As a high school graduate of The Baltimore School for the Arts and a participant Baltimore's Wide Angle Youth Media non-profit, he's honed his subject-based style to give each of his shoots, whether its celebrities, musicians, athletes, or models, a unique “wow” factor.   Stay Connected: Website Instagram Facebook Wide Angle Youth / Comcast Video   Host: Derek Fahsbender Senior Creative Producer: Jill Waterman Senior Technical Producer: Mike Weinstein Executive Producer: Richard Stevens

The UK's King of Colour just told Kelly she should go full bleach blonde. Also, he's the reason David Bowie's hair looked so iconic! Let's be honest...most of us have no idea what our actual hair colour is. We're out here saying we're "nearly black" when we're actually dark blonde, or claiming we've "always been blonde" when we're clearly brunette. This week, Kelly's sitting down with Josh Wood - the man who's coloured the hair of David Bowie, the entire Beckham family, and basically every supermodel who's walked for Marc Jacobs. We're talking 30 years of London hair domination, Fashion Week chaos, and why he decided to give away all his celebrity secrets during lockdown. He's about to blow up everything you think you know about colouring your hair at home. From why that "one shade fits all" approach is completely wrong, to the real reason your colour goes patchy (spoiler: you're probably choosing too dark), Josh breaks down the biggest mistakes everyone makes. Plus, he reveals his Aussie dream client (hint: it's Celeste Barber) and explains why "lived-in" looks are taking over from high-maintenance highlights.

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone, now officially straddling the worlds of music and fashion, is making headlines with one of the most ambitious pivots of his career. This week, he quietly sent out invitations for his first-ever runway show under an eponymous label, Austin Post, which will debut September 1 in Paris—timed perfectly ahead of Fashion Week and his own European tour stop. According to Hypebeast and WWD, this marks his inaugural solo venture into fashion, after years spent collaborating with brands like Crocs, Stanley, Ugg, and most recently, SKIMS. It signals a major expansion of his creative portfolio, positioning Malone as both musician and creative director. The anticipation is heavy; speculation swirls over whether he's going full high-end luxury or blending the rugged Western vibe and streetwear grit that have defined his public persona. Neither Malone nor his team has revealed details about the “Season One” collection, but insiders say his eclectic personal style—embellished blazers, denim-on-denim, fringe jackets, oversized hoodies—will directly influence the launch.Meanwhile, Post's feature as the face of SKIMS' new menswear campaign has sent social media into a frenzy. Images show him dramatically slimmed down, nearly nude except for camo briefs, on horseback and chopping firewood in Utah's rustic wilds. The campaign's outdoorsy, country-chic visuals have been met with universal acclaim. Kim Kardashian herself said that having Post lead the collection was “the perfect fit.” Malone spoke to GQ and Yahoo Entertainment about his newfound confidence, joking that the shoot made him feel like “a handsome son of a b-tch.” The dramatic weight loss—reportedly 27 kilograms—has been a major talking point among fans, with some expressing concern about his skinny frame while others celebrate his transformation. He attributes the change less to grueling exercise and more to cutting out sugary sodas, replacing them with grilled chicken and hot sauce—details he recently shared on The Joe Rogan Experience and Howard Stern.In music, Post continues riding high. On August 18, he delivered an extended, crowd-pleasing performance of “Congratulations” in Berlin as part of his ongoing European tour, which follows the success of his debut country album, F-1 Trillion. That record, released just a year ago, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and spawned several hit singles featuring Morgan Wallen, Blake Shelton, and Luke Combs. His artistic reinvention as a rapper-turned-country star is still reverberating—country stations and fans are reliving the milestone of his first Grand Ole Opry stage performance from last August, a moment highlighted on Instagram this week.On social media, his every move is tracked rabidly by fan accounts and pop culture hubs. Culted, among others, shared the news of his Paris runway debut, while his SKIMS campaign dominated posts and reels throughout the week. The intersection of his personal transformation, brand launches, and ongoing musical evolution has fans and fashion insiders watching closely, wondering just how far Post Malone will expand the boundaries of his already multifaceted brand.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Letzte Woche ging's mir richtig mies: krank in Kopenhagen, während ich auf der Fashion Week unterwegs war. Natürlich habe ich trotzdem alles mitgenommen: glamouröse Shows, chaotische Mode-Menschen und sogar ein kleiner spiritueller Regenbogen-Moment im Taxi. Zwischendurch habe ich mich gefragt, ob mein Lebensstil mich krank macht, über Milchprodukte philosophiert und beschlossen, mal auf Erbsenprotein umzusteigen. Außerdem habe ich eine Gwyneth-Paltrow-Biografie verschlungen (inklusive schockierender Teabagging-Enthüllung), den neuen Freakier Friday mit Lindsay Lohan am ersten Tag gesehen und meine Meinung zu Der Teufel trägt Prada 2 entwickelt. Kurz gesagt: Highs, Lows, Horoskope und ganz viel Popkultur; alles mit angeschlagener Lindsay-Lohan-Voice.Meinen Krimi vorbestellenhttps://www.patreon.com/c/MichiBuchinger

Democratic strategist James Carville has issued a public apology and removed a YouTube video from his “Politics War Room” podcast that implied a connection between First Lady Melania Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. The decision follows a legal letter from Melania's attorney, prompting Carville to edit the episode, retract his remarks, and formally apologize on a recent broadcast. The first lady responded by sharing a screenshot of the pulled video and the apology transcript on X. This action aligns with another recent retraction by the Daily Beast, which took down a piece citing Michael Wolff's claims about Melania's introduction to Donald Trump via Epstein's circle—claims she disputes in her 2024 memoir, saying she met him at a Fashion Week party in 1998.Next up...Vice President J.D. Vance reportedly hosted a private strategy meeting initially planned at his residence but later moved to the White House, bringing together key Trump administration figures—including Attorney General Pam Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, FBI Director Kash Patel, and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles—to coordinate the response to the Epstein investigation. Among the topics under discussion were whether to release audio or transcripts of Blanche's interview with Ghislaine Maxwell and how to shape the administration's public messaging amid mounting scrutiny. Although both Trump and Vance publicly dismissed the reports as “fake news,” sources confirmed the meeting took place at the White House to avoid media attention.next up...Democratic members of the House Oversight Committee have vigorously urged transparency in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, pushing to subpoena the Department of Justice for the full, unredacted case files (with victim identities redacted), and seeking testimony from high‑profile figures, including Ghislaine Maxwell and the Clintons.   Alongside this, leading Democratic lawmakers such as Rep.

Welcome back to another episode of The Haute Guide!  In this episode, I'm talking about why funding Black media is absolutely non-negotiable. I'm unpacking how major fashion magazines rely heavily on advertising dollars—with over half of some issues filled with ads. But flip through those pages, and you'll barely see Black-owned brands featured—or even Black faces in many of the campaigns. While I get that advertising keeps publications running, the reality is most Black brands don't have $50,000 or $100,000 to spend on a single ad page. This lack of access fuels a bigger systemic problem: fewer opportunities for visibility, growth, and recognition in the industry. That's why I created the Black Fashion Media Equity Program—to offer free ad space to Black fashion and beauty brands. Because if we want true representation and equity in fashion, we need to make sure Black media has the resources to thrive and amplify our stories. Key Moments: Breaking down how much ad space takes up in big fashion magazines—and who actually gets those ads The financial hurdles Black fashion entrepreneurs face trying to afford premium ad rates How the lack of ad dollars ties into broader systemic issues around visibility and opportunity An inside look at the Black Fashion Media Equity Program and its mission Why funding Black media platforms is essential for long-term change in the fashion industry Next Week Sneak Peek:Next episode, I'm diving into Steve Madden's viral interview, recapping Paris Men's Fashion Week, and sharing what it's really like running a fashion magazine as a Black editor. Plus—where are we supposed to shop now that these brands keep acting up?

Crystal McKinney, a former model, has filed a lawsuit against Sean "Diddy" Combs, accusing him of sexually assaulting her in 2003 at his recording studio in New York City. McKinney alleges that after meeting Diddy at a Men's Fashion Week event, he invited her to his studio where she joined him and several others in drinking and smoking marijuana. McKinney claims the marijuana was laced with a substance that left her disoriented. Diddy then allegedly coerced her into a bathroom, where he forced her to perform oral sex despite her refusals. McKinney says she passed out and later awoke in a taxi, realizing she had been assaulted. Following the incident, McKinney alleges she was blacklisted from the modeling industry, leading to depression and a suicide attempt in 2004.This lawsuit adds to a growing list of sexual misconduct accusations against Diddy, including cases brought by other women, such as his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura. McKinney was inspired to come forward after seeing similar cases gain attention.(commercial at 7:27)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Model sues Diddy, accusing him of drugging and sexually assaulting her (nbcnews.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Spring 2026 season of Men's Fashion Week in Paris is well underway, and to celebrate, we're catching up with one of the most respected (and loudest) voices in menswear: Lawrence Schlossman, co-host of Throwing Fits, as well as the former editor-in-chief of Four Pins (RIP), brand director of Grailed, author of F**k Yeah Menswear, and overall industry authority for more than a decade. In a supersized episode, Lawrence breaks down his illustrious career that all started with a fashion blog, and anonymous Tumblr account, a healthy sense of humor, and a dream. Plus, he shares a wealth of insights on the current state of the menswear space: what's most interesting to him right now, his thoughts on what's happening (and what's not) in men's lifestyle media, the tedium of recycled references, the hyperspeed of the trend cycle and which trends have surprising staying power, the overconsumption conundrum, his take on the personal style discourse, the fine line between being in on the joke and being the joke in the starter pack age, how menswear enthusiasts can set themselves apart when it comes to style, and so much more.This episode was recorded in the podcast studio at The SQ @ 205 Hudson.

Crystal McKinney, a former model, has filed lawsuits against both Sean "Diddy" Combs and Harvey Weinstein, alleging separate incidents of sexual assault in 2003. In her lawsuit against Combs, filed in May 2024, McKinney claims that after meeting him at a Men's Fashion Week event, he invited her to his New York City recording studio under the pretense of discussing her modeling career. There, she alleges he provided her with alcohol and marijuana, which she believes was laced with another substance. McKinney asserts that Combs pressured her to consume more substances and, once she was heavily intoxicated, led her into a bathroom where he forced her to perform oral sex. She later woke up in a cab with no recollection of how she got there and has since experienced ongoing emotional trauma, including depression and a suicide attempt.In a separate case, McKinney filed an amended lawsuit in May 2025 against Harvey Weinstein, alleging that he sexually assaulted her and a friend in a Manhattan hotel room in 2003. According to the complaint, a modeling agency executive arranged a meeting between McKinney and Weinstein at a lounge, which later moved to his hotel room under the guise of discussing acting opportunities. Once there, Weinstein allegedly plied them with alcohol, groped McKinney, and coerced both women into non-consensual sexual acts, including rape. McKinney claims that she and her friend complied out of fear of retaliation and that the incident led to long-term psychological distress.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Crystal McKinney adds Harvey Weinstein to lawsuit months after Diddy claims | Fox News

What If Sober Was the New Cool? Breaking the Wine Culture Narrative with Kim BellasThis episode of Asking for a Friend is sponsored by Better Help. https://betterhelp.com/askingforafriendIs wine really the answer to midlife stress—or have we just been sold that story?In this episode of Asking for a Friend, I sit down with Kim Bellas, founder of the global movement Sober is the New Cool, to talk about what happens when midlife women challenge the “mommy juice” narrative and rethink their relationship with alcohol.At 52, Kim gave up wine—not because she had to, but because her son's epilepsy meds meant he couldn't drink. In a moment of clarity (wine glass in hand), she realized the message she was sending and committed to going sober for 3 months in solidarity.That was 12 years ago.What started as a short-term decision became a full-blown transformation—one that led to better sleep, stronger confidence, Fashion Week appearances (yes, really!), and a worldwide community of women just like her.This conversation will speak to any woman who's ever thought:“I don't have a problem, but maybe I drink more than I want to.”“I'm curious what life would be like without wine.”“I want to feel better, sleep better, and show up better—but without feeling judged.”✨ Whether you're sober-curious, alcohol-free, or simply sick of feeling like you need a drink to relax, this episode is your permission slip to explore something different.
