The Best (and Biggest) Hats from the Kentucky Derby

There aren’t many red carpets that can bring together the likes of Lauren Conrad, Kid Rock, beauty queens, and Smokey Robinson, but it happened this weekend at the 139th Kentucky Derby.

2. Why was Zi Lin the only one who thought to suck up to that lady from US Weekly?

3. Who are these people who had to come to this fake red carpet and act interested in the models?

4. Whoah. When did the teams become segregated by race?

10 Questions for The Face

1. Shouldn’t Karolina Kurkova and Coco Rocha be getting a bit more screen time? Or is The Face really just a vehicle for Team Naomi?

2. Was it really necessary for Amar’e Stoudemire to hold a basketball when he entered the room? Just, you know, in case it wasn’t clear who he was after Nigel Barker’s introduction five seconds earlier?

3. How great was it that Naomi mispronounced the word “pronunciation” when talking about Zi Ling’s problems with it?

4. Where does Stephanie keep pulling these winning performances from? Nigel and Naomi were so excited (a little too excited?) by her test shoot.

The models at the top of the heap, many of whom have become friends and muses to designers over the years, are gifted some pretty amazing swag. We chatted with the likes of Karlie Kloss, Jessica Stam, and Cara Delevingne backstage this past New York fashion week about the best freebies they’ve ever received from a designer. (Hint: Marc Jacobs is very generous.)

10 Questions for The Face
Recap

10 Questions for The Face

1. Is anyone else really distracted that all of Nigel Barker’s “live” commentary and challenge explanations are actually pre-recorded audio? Is it that hard to converse on-camera (especially after 18 seasons of ANTM)?

2. How did Sandra not notice her boob completely hanging out as she went down the runway in the first challenge? That had to have been a little breezy.

3. Did Devyn really think being a tattletale would work out for her? Awkward!
