It’s about freaking time. Rumors of a Zoolander sequel have been swirling for 11 years and now we finally seem to have confirmation in the form of an IMDB page. It’s not officially confirmed yet and there’s no word when it could come out, but in the meantime, you can get your Blue Steel fix thanks to this (hilarious) new video of Ben Stiller doing his best Derek Zoolander at Comedy Central’s “Night of Too Many Stars” Autism charity event. {Style Bistro}

Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy and wife Carla Bruni stopped by the Upper East Side for a bit of takeout – around $1,100 worth. That’s a lot of pizza. {NYPost}

The Super Bowl is one of America’s biggest televised events, so the halftime performance has to be just as huge. And what could be bigger than Beyonce? The superstar will headline the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show. {HuffPo}

The 3 Most Buzzed About Shows From Day 2 of Paris Fashion Week

Enfant terrible Gareth Pugh was promoted to Varsity when he went medieval on critics–in a totally soigné contemporary way. Meanwhile, in the battle of moody romanticism between two great print houses, Dries van Noten and Rochas, Dries’s flannel à la française scored a touchdown–and that’s how the game was won.

Finally! Here’s the Gareth Pugh for MAC Makeup Collection

Back in June, news leaked that Gareth Pugh was doing a makeup line with his long-time runway collaborator, MAC. We got to meet and chat with the designer at an event back in July, where we ogled his nail polish and learned that the packaging was like a weapon. Well, now we finally get to see it in real life.
