Chanel Iman: The Next Model Mogul

chanel iman in a turban tied with a belt.jpgNot only does Chanel Iman have an upcoming guest spot on Gossip Girl following her House of Style stint this weekend, but it looks like the Ford model’s planning a much longer career on sets instead of runways.

She told Fashionologie that she’s “kind of slowing down on the modeling” which would explain how she’s going to accomplish her earlier statements to Teen Vogue, that she wants to do “television, film, music and designing. I want to do it all!”

So is Chanel Iman the next model-business a la Heidi Klum? Maybe.

We would wonder aloud whether this new career path of hers has longevity, but considering that she was born in 1989, we’ll hold off.

Cuteness Confirmed for HOS

chanel iman and the smile.jpgEarly reports naming Chanel Iman as Bar Rafaeli’s co-host for MTV’s revival of House of Style appear to be true.

We can’t imagine how she’s had the time between walking back-to-back shows in New York, London, Milan, and probably now Paris. (We bet Coco’s been giving her tips.)

Unless, of course, the first House of Style episodes revolve exclusively around backstage shots of Fashion Week - in which case, how does Bar figure into it?

Gossip Girl Snags Chanel

chanel iman gets to GG.jpgChanel Iman’s on the sure-to-be-mind-blowing episode of Gossip Girl - the one where Serena throws an amazing party and everyone shows up.

It’s the same episode in which Patrick McMullan takes pictures, the Misshapes look miserable and this guy got in trouble with the producers for trying to drink booze in Dan’s fake room.

So now we’re wondering, will there be other models present? Other fashion people? Between Leigh (who we hope hope hope gets to make eyes at Chuck) and Chanel, the show’s obviously on a mission to up its high fashion cred.

Also, this means Chanel’s at least sort of into the idea of being on TV, which makes the rumor that she’s set to co-host House of Style with Bar Rafaeli a bit more believable.

That’s a lot to think about - and it’s only Tuesday.

Bar Rafaeli Confirms House of Style

bar rafaeli is really hot.jpgBar Rafaeli just got the cover of this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, and she gushes to Time.com all about it.

But more importantly, when asked about her future plans near the end of the interview, she says this:

“I’m shooting a show for MTV; we’re starting right after all the parties for Sports Illustrated. And then I have work, work, work, work. The show is called House of Style. They used to do it before and now they’re bringing it back. So it’s very exciting.”

There you have it. Now if someone can corner Chanel later this week (we’re on it), then we can all know for sure just exactly who’s taking Cindy’s spot.

House of Style Returns

The 90’s television revivals aren’t stopping at 90210 and Absolutely Fabulous. No, House of Style’s jumping on the trend, too.

The Post reports that the MTV show that made Cindy Crawford America’s sweetheart is back for a second try, and the producers already have their sights set on Chanel Iman and Bar Rafaeli (who already has some experience with camera crews) as hosts.

Assuming the show will be the same format of fashion and design information brought to Americans via cute girls, we’re betting it’ll be a hit, especially with those that want to further understand the decade they were born in, which is pretty much MTV’s target audience these days anyway.

In the meantime, please enjoy Cindy and Niki, at left.

I Don’t Care What My Teachers Say, I’m Gonna Be A Supermodel

So, it’s officially 90’s flashback day, and we couldn’t be more excited. And what could be greater than supers backstage?

Here, Yasmin Lebon (yes like Simon from Duran Duran) is a new mommy, Naomi hates wearing clothes, and everyone is wearing swimsuits that would make Rosa Cha blush.

Did we mention this is from House of Style? Oh yeah, and Cindy Crawford is hosting!

Now if only Daria would interview Stam and Gemma at Marc, our lives would be complete.
