James Franco's Gucci commercial is dying for a punchline

Filed under: Style in the News, Fragrance, Celebrities with Style



We know that designer fragrance commercials have a tendency to come on too strong, but the first of James Franco's TV spots for Gucci for Gucci is so over the top serious that it kinda hurt our brain. In fact, we kept thinking it was a spoof. Does pretending that a men's fragrance is a world-changing event really make anyone want to lather up?

I want that! Bochic cuff

Filed under: Get the Look


Amber Heard is new on the scene as far as we're concerned but she isn't wasting anytime making her star shine brighter.

At an L.A. premiere of her new flick Pineapple Express, Amber looked absolutely divine in a Giorgio Armani asymmetrical dress. But what we're really digging is the Bochic cuff and rings. And those shoes... swoon! We could go all day.

Bottomline: Amber makes us want more and we're sure in the coming days as she promotes Pineapple, she's going to give it to us.

Scandal: Pineapple Express ripped off a Brooklyn t-shirt designer?

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing


In our opinion,
coming up with t-shirt design that strikes the perfect balance between dead kittens and bad-ass sharks is an art form of the highest order. And like most advanced masterworks, it's pretty easy to tell when an artist is being ripped off. That would seem to be the case when it comes to the kitten laying in a shark's mouth t-shirt that James Franco wears in Pineapple Express.

A small Brooklyn t-shirt company named WOWCH is complaining that the shirt featured in the movie has a striking resemblance to one that they sold through Urban Outfitters in 2005. We kinda have to agree. Instead of giving credit where credit's due, the film's director apparently got credit for the design concept in an interview with Franco -- adding insult to injury.

They say that imitation is the highest form of flattery. We say: the hell it is! It seems to us that some monetary compensation would be a good start, but all WOWCH wants is a free passes, popcorn, and a really big soda.
