Ed Hardy Tries Cellphone Accessories

January 11th, 2010

There’s not much that’s subtle about Ed Hardy, the clothing line splashed with rhinestones and vintage tattoo designs that’s favored by the likes of Jon Gosselin.

They’re made by Crystal Icing, which makes handsets adorned with Swarovski crystals. Users can choose between 10 new designs with names like “Beautiful Ghost,” “Love Kills Slowly” and “Koi Fish” for mobile faceplates ($30), iPod faceplates ($20 to $30) or special rhinestone faceplates ($50).

In addition, for $800 a pop, users who really like sparkle can bling out any type of cellphone with BeDazzler-like Ed Hardy designs. Paris Hilton and Britney Spears are fans, according to the Crystal Icing site.

On Friday, Crystal Icing’s CES booth featured models wearing in Ed Hardy bikinis and strutting a mini-runway while showing off mobile phones outfitted with the new Ed Hardy designs.

The new Ed Hardy Boys 2010

January 10th, 2010

The much-maligned Ed Hardy clothing company has simultaneously given the fashion-challenged, uh, idiot population a way to express their “uniqueness” to the world while giving the rest of us something to point at and laugh about (well “white people” at least, but I suspect it’s possible for persons of any race, creed or color to find the Technicolor vomit of Ed Hardy clothing absolutely insufferable). Now there are some new kids on the fashion block and they want to do for trust fund hipsters what Ed Hardy did for Jon Gosselin and the cast of MTV’s “Jersey Shore.”

Yes indeed, the Grammy award-winning Kings of Leon pop group are coming out with a new line of expensive prefab hipster togs which will be for sale in just one store on London’s trendy King’s Road. Starting this month, if you are so inclined, you can spend your parents’ hard-earned dough on a dozen overpriced items of the “S2A x KOL” collection, to be sold exclusively at The Shop at Bluebird. Items of apparel fashioned after the ones worn by the musical Followill family include plaid shirts, stovepipe jeans, belts, jewelery, guitar straps and, of course, black Fedoras. The “S2A x KOL” is a collaboration between the Followills and Paris-based design firm, Surface to Air.

No! Not the Ed Hardy!

December 31st, 2009

A “sick perpetrator” broke into Jon Gosselin’s Mnahattan apartment over the weekend and proceeded to knife everything in his place. “Shoes, shirts, luggage, bed, curtain, rugs” and other furniture are now decorated with gashes. Not only that, the person stole a television, CD player, coffee maker, a Nintendo Wii game, dishes, pots and pans and smashed a 100 year old Ming vase for good measure.

They also left behind a note which they stuck into Jon’s dresser with a butcher knife. It was signed with Hailey Glassman’s name and called Jon a “cheater”.

NYPD questioned Hailey yesterday and took fingerprints, but since Hailey used to live in the apartment, her prints are going to be everywhere. Hailey’s attorney adds that this is all a big publicity stunt and/or someone is trying to frame Hailey.

Jon must have been beside himself when he came home and saw his Ed Hardy tees slashed up. He probably cradled them in his arms like they were his dying son, cursed the heavens and promised to avenge them.

Judge To Jon Gosselin – STOP THAT!

December 11th, 2009

The pool parties, the dangling cigarettes, the incoherent ranting, the walking Ed Hardy billboard – it all comes to an end, for now. Jon Gosselin has finally been put in his place by one of the highest authorities in the land.  TLC had sought a temporary injunction against Gosselin that would require him to stop pimping his substantial ass out until the got a chance to grind it to hamburger in their April 19th trial where Gosselin will face the charge of breach of contract.  And, they got it.

TLC’s high powered pack of attorneys spent the day detailing how Jon Gosselin had caused irreparable harm to their product, Jon and Kate Plus Eight, by behaving like a ridiculous douche bag.  Specifically, they cited his public womanizing and appearance in places that did not jive with TLC’s family oriented image.

Gosselin himself was not in the courtroom at all despite insistence that he would be there to see this through, but can you blame him?  Who wants to listen to six hours of someone pointing out how much a douche you are, particularly when it’s all true.  TLC didn’t spare a single detail, and there is no need to repeat them here since we all know what they were.  To sum it all up, TLC head called Gosselin an “Embarrassment.”  Ouch.

Kate Gosselin, meanwhile, has been working on a new series for TLC, which does not involve the kids.  Strangely enough,  Jon’s attorneys attempted to counter TLC’s position by accusing the network of exploiting Jon and Kate’s plus eight.  Imagine a world where Jon and Kate Plus Eight never happened.  Jon and Kate still together?  Maybe.  Jon Gosselin’s fame?  Definitely non-existent. What a wonderful world it would be.

Living with, But Not Talking to, Jon Gosselin

December 10th, 2009

Jon Gosselin’s ex-girlfriend Hailey Glassman says that she and the father-of-eight are not on speaking terms, but there’s one problem: They’re still living together.

In a tearful interview with RadarOnline.com, Hailey confesses, “we are not together. But it’s complicated. We’re still living together but he’s away travelling.”

Hailey was deposed by TLC on Monday in the network’s breach of contract case against the reality star but she maintains they never discussed business deals.

She also insists their trip to France this summer to stay on Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier’s yacht wasn’t intended to be a business trip.

“All I knew was that I was going to France and we were going to spend time on Christian’s yacht. I knew Jon was maybe going to do a line with Christian, but that was it.”

Amid tears, the 22-year-old describes her relationship with Jon as “a joke that was on me.”

And stepping into the void left by Jon’s split with Kate Gosselin has destroyed her family. “Welcome to my nightmare,” says Hailey.

“I’m not on speaking terms with my mother because of Jon. He’s thrown a huge fork in my family. That’s the saddest part about all of this.

“When all the cheating accusations came out I’d catch him lying, he’d call my mother and tell her ‘I love Hailey, I would never cheat on her. Those other girls are whores and they’re trying to extort money from me.’

“At that point I would break up with Jon and tell him to leave me alone. My mom would then come to me and say, ‘Jon’s a great guy.’

“He would manipulate my mother because he knew my mother and I were best friends. He would manipulate my mother to get back to me and I would forgive him.”

Hailey wants to start life afresh – without the 32-year-old man child around.

“I just want this all to be over,” she says. “I want him out of my life… I want my family to come back together.

“I feel like I’ve been in crazy land, in a tank of piranhas. I think Jon needs to relearn to love himself before he can even have friendships. He needs to relearn how to be a good person and I hope he gets help.”
