Lauren Hutton on the Fashion Industry: ‘It’s F***ed Up Mother F***ers”

If anyone deserves the honorific of “icon,” it is model/actress Lauren Hutton. She also swears like a truck driver and is super opinionated. What’s not to love?

The 69-year-old model is featured in this week’s issue of Net-a-Porter’s magazine The Edit, and she sounds off on everything from protecting Kate Moss from other meanie super models to using her shoe as a weapon.

Khloe Kardashian Gets Photoshopped, Alexa Chung Rocks Leather Nails, and Lara Stone Shows Off Her Bump

Due to scheduling conflicts, Khloe Kardashian missed the shoot for her family’s famous (infamous?) annual Christmas card and thus had to be photoshopped in. What, your family doesn’t photoshop its Christmas cards? {E! Online}

Lara Stone isn’t afraid to show off her growing baby bump–though if we looked this amazing, pregnant or not, we’d certainly be flaunting it. {HuffPo}

Speaking of pregnancies, congratulations are in order for Gucci designer Frida Giannini who is expecting her first child with Patrizio di Marco. {WWD}

Annie Leibovitz Just Shot Lauren Santo Domingo, Mayor Bloomberg and Arianna Huffington For Vanity Fair

It looks like Vanity Fair is going to have some sort of NYC tech power players feature in a forthcoming issue. Perhaps even a cover considering the number of people involved and the fact that VF tapped Annie Leibovitz to shoot it. Apparently Leibovitz and NYC-famous subjects including (a very pregnant) Lauren Santo Domingo, Mayor Read more →

Anja Rubik Gets Raunchy with the Relaunch of Her Fashion Erotica Magazine 25

Does Anja Rubik know good sex? We’ll soon be finding out: The catwalk queen with the pelvic bone seen round the world is set to relaunch 25 Magazine, a project she started way back in 2009 with her then-future husband, fellow model Sasha Knezevic. She’ll re-introduce the glossy tomorrow at Cannes.

Inspired by 1970s adult women’s erotica magazine Viva, the model-cum-editor chose to revamp 25 with an overtly sexual erotica theme.

See Shirtless Male Olympians Leap Over and Shower With Karlie Kloss in Vogue

Yes, there is an Annie Leibovitz-lensed fashion editorial to go along with Vogue‘s all-athlete June issue cover. And since male Olympic athletes don’t typically wear current-season designer clothes (or even shirts, apparently) while displaying their athleticism, Vogue decided to throw in an evening gown-clad Karlie Kloss to appease their advertisers balance things out.

A History of Naked, Pregnant Celebs on Magazine Covers

Earlier today, the Internet was all a flutter with the newly released nudie pics of an extremely pregnant (it’s been what, ten months now?) Jessica Simpson on the cover of Elle. The April 2012 spread was photographed by Carter Smith and styled by Joe Zee, but they clearly got some inspiration, elsewhere. Since Annie Leibovitz shot a naked and pregnant Demi Moore for Vanity Fair twenty-one years ago, it seems like pregnant celebs everywhere have been clamoring to strip down for the newsstands.n At this point, it’s practically a right of passage for expectant stars, as well as an informal announcement that “exclusive first baby pictures!” will be shopped around in the near future. Is pregnancy a valid excuse for famous women (most of whom would scoff at an offer from Playboy in normal circumstances) to take it all off?

Take a look at our investigation of the fascinating (and at times, extremely uncomfortable) history of the naked, pregnant magazine cover. Do you think it’s a celebration or just exploitation? And does a pregnant naked person really make you want to buy a magazine? We want to hear what you think.
