Sofia Coppola

FABTV: The Chemical Brothers, "Elektrobank"

In this Spike Jonze directed vid, Fab favorite Sofia Coppola plays Janet, an injured gymnast.

In this Spike Jonze directed vid, Fab favorite Sofia Coppola plays Janet, an injured gymnast. With all the Olympics hoopla, this was the perfect FABTV for right now. Sofia looks every bit the part: feathered bangs, scrunchied pony, toned bod (but maybe too skinny, have you seen today's gymnasts?). It's obvious it's not Sofia with the long shots and complicated maneuvers, but that just makes it more campy. I don't really pay attention to the music during the floor routines, but if someone chose The Chemical Brothers, that would be dope. I'm just sayin'. Drama-filled — oh no, did she injure her faulty ankle? — and easy on the eyes, watch to see if Janet wins another one for the trophy case.

Happy 50th, Madonna!

Madonna Style Through the Ages

In the words of Carrie Bradshaw to birthday girl Samantha: You don't look a day over 35. Madonna is a force who will always be considered original, talented, and youthful. Through her many incarnations, early '90s Madonna was my favorite. Vogue? Come on. Amazing. My second favorite was brunette and slightly goth Like a Prayer Madonna. And there are so many more. What was your favorite? Whether you fancy early Madonna, or now Madonna, we have it all in celebration of her 50th birthday. Join me in honoring the icon in her innate ability to always be Fab.
