Okay I do not ordinarily do this but there where things I read yesterday in the beauty blogging world that I HAVE TO TALK ABOUT!!!
SHOCKER #1:
First things first, I read that there has been a recent surge in plastic surgery requests and that the face asked for is MADONNA’S!! Oh really!! What kills me about this is I LOVE Madonna. I have since I was a kid, but even I have to confess that Father Time is finally knock-knock-knockin on her face. Add to that the woman is notorious for her strict diet and workout regime. So if you really want to look like a withering zombie, simply stop eating and work out until you faint everyday.
Sorry I was just really shocked when I read that people were actually going under the knife to look like she currently does, that makes no sense to me. Why spend good money to look old? Or aging?

SHOCKER #2:
The notorious Tranny Amanda Lepore is launching her/his own cosmetics line!
Hmmm, got to say I have mixed feelings about this, on the one hand I have always envied the pure artwork that Trannies and Drag Queens can accomplish on their facial palette with make-up.
then again…
You take away the lighting and glam and you’re left with this…
Pretty scary stuff close up, no? Anyhow, what do you guys think? Would you buy/try makeup from Mizz Amanda Lepore?
SHOCKER #3:
Well this last bit is not so much a shocker, as a “Hmmm, Betty Paige Bangs are coming back?”
So here is model Petra Nemcova sporting what I know as “Betty Paige” bangs. I know this because I use to sport them myself back in high school. I could muster some old photos up, but I don’t want to cry myself to sleep tonight.
Here’s the OG version:
The funny part is how they are making this seem like a “celebrity trend”. Umm, hate to break it to you main stream Americans but the Betty Paige bangs have been around forever. Ever heard of a sub-culture called “Rock-a-Billies”? And I’m done…
Also, personally I do not mind if these bangs start popping up on more gals. You should be warned that they can’t be sported on just anyone. You should have a healthy dose of personality, style and a heart shaped face helps too. Not so much if you have a round face as you tend to look like a South Park character.
Ahhhh! What a relief to get all that off my chest, the rest of the day may now proceed as scheduled.
