FABTV: The Cars "You Might Think"

Who doesn't love The Cars? They're new wave, but a smidgen pop. Their tunes are cool and catchy. Top that. I remember seeing this video as a wee lassie and loving its surreal playfulness. It's ultimately a romantic song, though lead singer Ric Ocasek isn't stalking his bride model Paulina Porizkova in it. Some blond chick, but she's still cute. The neon-like props against the black background are unmistakably '80s - it was 1984, after all. But the song still rocks. My favorite part in the video is when blondie opens her medicine cabinet to see the mini band rocking out - silly.

Kissing and telling is usually taboo. Contrary to that belief, Bruce Hulse decided to dish all about his former life as a Calvin Klein model in his book Sex, Love, and Fashion: A Memoir of a Male Model ($16). The memoir rumors to expose explicit, juicy details on Hulse's exciting life including romantic escapades with models such as Andie MacDowell and Paulina Porizkova to name a few.

If you're itching for a preview, here's a leaked excerpt from his rendezvous with Porizkova: "I arrived at Paulina's hotel room only to find her wearing next to nothing. I was doomed. Within seconds we were all over each other. We completely tore up the room." Did that leave you wanting more? The book is set to release August 5 and is available for preorder.

Should America's Next Top Model Screen Candidates Making Sure They Have a Genuine Interest in Fashion?

Just when I was beginning to get bored with America's Next Top Model, Tyra and her crew did a little switcharoo. Thank you! First they took the production to New York - smart move - then, they brought on old-school Czech model Paulina Porizkova as a guest judge. Though the caliber of models still isn't great, there are a couple with high-fashion potential. But more on that later. Let's talk about quitter Kim from Worcester, New York. What the bleep? How can you want to be a model when you don't like, much less live and breathe, fashion?

On several occasions, she expressed not believing in paying an obscene amount on clothes. Tyra told her that "one don't need to spend a lot of money to love fashion," duh! Still, it wasn't enough to convince Kim to stay. Because of what happened last night, do you think ANTM should screen candidates to make sure they have a genuine interest in fashion?

Model Clones: Fatima from America's Next Top Model + Iman

FabSugar — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 05:00:22 -0700

Last night's America's Next Top Model took a little break and recapped all the previous episodes. My favorite part was when guest judge and model Paulina Porizkova ripped the models' looks apart upon their first meeting. She told Amis that she has bad skin (ouch), and that Dominique looks like a drag queen (double ouch). You can guess from this picture what she said to Fatima . . . that she looks like Iman. Quite the compliment. All the other models must have been fuming. Just to throw in a little cruelty, Paulina pointed out that Fatima's eyes are much smaller. 'Tis true, but after being called a baby Iman, they may as well have ended the contest and given Fatima the $100,000. Both women are Somalian; do you see the uncanny similarities?
