Britney circus Fantasy 3 fragrance Music Video
The video for Britney Spear's new single "3" has been revealed and once again she's advertising her fragrances in the video. In the video for 'Circus' there were bottles of her fragrance's, Fantasy and Curious and a shot of Britney trying on a $10,000 Bulgari chain.

In keeping with her trend of advertising her fragrances, her newest music video features her newest fragrance, "Circus Fantasy".


Who needs advertisements, when you can just flog the products in your music videos? What is next? Beyonce flogging  her House of Dereon line in a music video?…oops it happened already and it was called Deja Vu.

Cheryl Cole – Fight for this Love video

Cheryl Cole Fight for this love 5

I just saw Cheryl Cole's new video  and don't laugh at me  but I really like it. I didn't think I would but I really do. She's looking gorgeous  as usual. I'm not really digging the look at the beginning of the video (thep ants look like pajamas) but the  rest of the video is stellar. Especially , the part where Cheryl is styled like a sexy Beefeater (British Guard), complete with a military hat, red Balmain jacket and LNA Noir leggings. Actually, there is  quite a bit of Balmain in the video as Cheryl Cole also wears a Balmain dress in "Fight for the Love".

 I was kind of surprised that Cheryl didn't go the route of  Beyonce and Lady Gaga  who both act like they are  opposed to wearing pants in their music videos.

Top Ten: Fashion Songs

20 August 2009 No Comments

There are loads of songs that are inspired by fashion, Some  songs about fashion are good some of them bad. I rounded  up my favourite ones that left a lasting impression. I even  managed to find a Supermodels number 1 hit single. Below is my list of the top ten fashion related songs.

10. Fashion by Lady Gaga
Any list of  the best fashion inspired songs would have to have at least one Lady Gaga song on it.  So many of her  videos are  fashion inspired ( she even wears Thierry Mugler , Jeremy Scott and Dolce & Gabanna  her video for Paparazzi). In the end i chose "Fashion" because its actually about fashion


9. Power in my Purse by Marci X
I  kind of cheated with this one as it isn't an actual single . It was created for the  movie  Marci X.  Although its not a real song  any woman that can rattle off  designer names like Marci X is definitely Fierce.


8.Fashionista  by Jimmy James

There is one line in this song that  sums up how harsh the fashion industry can  be. "No one Ugly allowed". Love it!!!

Ciara “works” Herve Leger, Charlotte Ronson and Maison Martin Margiela in her new Music video

09 August 2009 No Comments

I've never really thought of Ciara as  a major fashion trendsetter.  However, I'm reconsidering my views. I just saw her new music video for her  single "work" and its FIERCE!!!!! Ciara is challenging Lady Gaga  and Beyonce for the most fashion in a music video. I have never seen so many designers in one video. First there is the  Maison Martin Margiela glasses, the Max Azaria  Herve Leger bandage swimsuit and the Charlotte Ronson Fall 2009 Jumpsuit. The whole video looks like a high fashion editorial.

Can you spot any other designers that I have missed?

28 March 2009 1 Comment

Ciara glasses R&B/ Pop songstress, Ciara has released a new music video  with Justin Timberlake called "Love Sex Magic" and shes looking more "Sasha Fierce" than Beyonce. She even wears a pair of  metal glasses. It seems that statement eyewear is here to stay. Shes the third celeb along with Kanye and Beyonce to wear statement eyewear in their music video's. Expect to see loads of people wearing statement glasses that look cool but obscure your vision.

Below is the music video.

Beyonce Gareth Pugh and Fringed Shades in ‘Diva’

29 December 2008 No Comments

Beyonce shades In her second single from her new album, Beyonce Sasha Fierce is once again wearing more Gareth Pugh. Britian is the birthplace of fierce and edgy so Beyonce choosing Gareth for her Sasha Fierce persona is a good match.

 I am not sure who did the fringed glasses yet, maybe its Lorraine Schwartz who designed the metal glove she wore in her "Single Ladies" video. 

Below is her 'Diva' video where you can see Beyonce wearing Gareth Pugh and fringed shades/ car wash shades.

Who is the Male model in Britney’s Womanizer music video? … Brandon Stoughton

12 October 2008 10 Comments

Brandon stoughton womanizer britney 1 

Who is the Guy in Britney Spears video for womanizer? He’s Brandon Stoughton from La Models.

Last Friday, Britney Spears released her comeback single for womanizer featuring Male Model,  Brandon Stoughton. Since Britney seems to have cleaned up her act and gotten her career back on track this single will probably do really well.  That means people all over the world will  see  Brandon Stoughton.

Twelve years ago Tyson Beckford  was well known model in the fashion community. He had a Ralph Lauren campaign securely under his belt. However, there was one pivotal  event that i think turned him from a top male model  to a Houselhold name and a male supermodel . That event was his appearance as the male lead in Toni Braxton’s” #1 hit single “Unbreak my Heart”.

Only time will tell if this music video appearance will have a similar effect for Brandon Stoughton. My little  Crystle Ball makes me think that can expect to see lots more of Brandon.

Britney’s new Womanizer music video

11 October 2008 No Comments

The video premiered on ABC’s 20/20 last night. In once scene of the video Britney is wearing a black and white outfit and she is sporting a super trendy bob that is very “Anna Wintour meets Posh Spice”. Its a really sleek looking video and I think its much better than the videos from her last album. Notice the Nokia product placement lol. I bet she’ll get a grammy nomination for this. Also featured in the video is male model Brandon Stoughton.

Well it kind of has a British connection. Rumour has it, that Britney will perform the new song on one of the live shows of X Factor later this year. Below is the her new single "Womanizer".

After the jump check out Britney’s rehearsal for other single "Mannequin".
