So...remember that creepy but irresistible Angelina Jolie doll that Annie found on eBay? It was a little too lifelike, but also a little too idealized...basically we've been waiting to hear that it came to life and killed the guy (because it was a guy, right?) who bought it for £2,000.

Now the Daily Mail has a story on the artist, Noel Cruz. And guess what? There are more dolls. A lot more.

This week: feelings about gender identity are challenged as the dark side of Uranus influences wardrobes and actions, wigs are worn and an appearance from the House of Avant Guard Fashions.

Cher and Bob Mackie are a match made in kooky, crazy, red carpet fashion fashion heaven. Or hell. It's a toss-up. But that's nothing new -- she has sported a number of, well, unusual ensembles to awards shows over the years.

At the 1986 Academy Awards, Cher showed up in full glory sporting this costume (I call it a costume because how many gowns come with a crazy headdress like this? And is that a cape?).

Other than the obvious first question, which would be a startled "What the ...?" the next question has to be, "How is that skirt staying up?" But you have to hand it to her -- she looks totally composed while wearing it, a feat I'm sure most women would not be able to pull off, no matter how phenomenal her acting chops might be.

Confession: I love Cher.

I love her songs. I love her movies. I love her long face. I love the graceless way she seems to chew her words whenever she speaks. And despite all of those unfortunate outfit choices over the years -- behavior which would normally made any lesser person dead to me -- she can do no wrong in my book.

Thus, you can only imagine how excited I was to hear that Cher is putting the contents of her Malibu home up for auction. The items, which include jewelry, clothes, household knick-knacks and furniture will be on exhibit throughout the US and the UK before being auctioned off at Sotheby's and Julien's.

Cher decided to have the sale so that she would be able to have the space in her home to redecorate. And of course, being the incredible creature of style and substance that she is, she will even share a percentage of the proceeds with an unnamed charity.
