Le Bitch Slap Heard Around the Tents It's not uncommon during fashion month for tempers to flare - people are running on too much coffee and not enough sleep (and likely not enough food, let's be real).

If you thought Slimane was going to let bygones be bygones, well, you were wrong. He took to Twitter again to decry what he called Horyn's "tired biased tune."
Oy vey. And just when you thought things couldn't get any circus-ier, who should chime in but Lady Gaga, who had also released a rap (yes, a rap) in which she tells Horyn that her "style ain't dick." Whatever that means. But it doesn't sound nice.
