Paris Hiltonand Doug Reinhardt have been clubhopping in NYC this week, with the socialite looking especially fierce Tuesday in a hot pink and black couture dress—bringing to mind exclamation points and bowling pins—matched with a hippychick headband. Ironically, it’s sister Nicky who’s getting engagement buzz this week, with Page Six saying longtime boyfriend David Katzenberg could pop the question at any second. For such an attention magnet, this dress is the loudest noise Paris has made in weeks! Is she still hungover from Rio or is this just the calm before the storm?
What does it say when you hit every company’s show at Paris Fashion Week except the one you allegedly work for? Lindsay Lohan—whose first show for Ungaro flopped last year—was notably absent from this season’s show, and the label is making clear she had no part in designing this season whatsoever. Though the company has yet to confirm all ties have been severed, it’s hard to imagine she’d be AWOL otherwise. Then again, maybe she was just really, really late.
While Lohan may be saying goodbye to one paycheck, more cash may await her soon. The star has filed suit against E-Trade for a Super Bowl ad featuring a “milkaholic” wild child who just happened to share her first name. “Many celebrities are known by one name only, and E-Trade is using that knowledge to profit,” her lawyer told the New York Post. “They used the name Lindsay. They’re using her name as a parody of her life. Why didn’t they use the name Susan? This is a subliminal message. Everybody’s talking about it and saying it’s Lindsay Lohan.” For the tarnishing and exploitation of her first name, the adult Lindsay wants $50 million in exemplary damages and $50 million in compensatory damages. Hey, you have to make your milk money somehow.

Thanks to dramatic displays of decolletage, Christina Hendricks and Hilary Swank made big impressions at the Elton John AIDS Foundation and Vanity Fair after parties, respectively. Both bashes were booming with celebs, with some surprise revelers—folks like Heidi Klum, Apolo Ohno and The Jonas Brothers—hopping between the two. See shots from the shindigs below and let us know which woman looked more striking in our TheFABLife poll.
Throw a rock in LA this week and you’ll hit a pre-Oscar party, but Glamour’s event at the Louis Vuitton store in Beverly Hills yesterday stuck out thanks to the number of stylish young starlets that attended. Those sipping and socializing among the accessories included Amanda Seyfried, Zoe Saldana, Anna Kendrick, Emma Roberts, Rashida Jones and Serena Williams. See what they wore in the gallery below.
When do we care about Germany’s Echo Awards? When Rihanna shows up wearing a lowwwwww-cut green one-piece suitable for both super-villainy and a night at home with the Golden Girls. Though her performance of “Rude Boy” was pretty awesome—if only because she had to flirt with giant, slow-moving sci-fi robots—Rihanna’s repeated failures to match Lady Gaga in fashion forwardness was underlined by Gaga (who didn’t bother attending) picking up four trophies while Rih-Rih went home with nothing.
Watch Rihanna and the robots shake to “Rude Boy” in the clip below, and soak up our favorite water nymph along with Ke$ha, Sade and Robbie Williams in the red carpet gallery.
Considering the weak economy and Janet Jackson’s slumping record sales, it’s no surprise to see members of her Rhythm Nation wandering the streets of Los Angeles in the tattered remains of their uniforms, regretfully pining for twenty years ago, when it was time to give a damn and work together. What’s surprising is when you look closer and release the new jack vagrant is Lost’s Michelle Rodriguez.
Though we’ve seen Michelle wearing leather jackets, black hats and black ripped jeans timeless times before, this is the first time we’ve noticed her rocking all three at the same time. Gawk at the gallery and join us in a chant of “Ignorance…No! Bigotry…No! Illiteracy…No!”
Lady Gaga showed off her latest fashion casserole outside of the Buddha Bar in London last night, having pre-recorded a performance for the Jonathan Ross show earlier in the day. We’re not sure what to make of this one: the metal frame is a skirt, yeah, but the wire fencing coming out of her radio antenna headgear? The jacket over the underwear? This just seems sloppy compared to Gaga’s lobster mask last weekend. Now that was a concept.
What don’tReese Witherspoon and Renee Zellweger have in common? Both are currently unattached, exceptionally skinny blonde actresses with broken marriages, countless romantic comedies and an Oscar each to their names, and both showed up in slim mini-dresses to the Vogue party for Vera Wang’s new store in LA Tuesday. If it wasn’t for Reese’s kids and Renee’s workout pants, we’d think they were the same person. Similarly slim stars like Mila Kunis, Rachel Zoe and Nicky Hilton also attended the event, but—with all respect to Wang herself—everyone knew who the big stars were last night. So who’s looking hotter? Check out the gallery and let us know in our TheFABLife poll.
Lady Gaga wore over 100 hot outfits in 2009, and 2010 is looking to be just as wild. For all the nun habits and mossy monstrosities worn at her concerts in London this weekend, Gaga looked just as outrageous stepping in and out of her hotel. Among our favorites were Friday’s red and black RoboMountie one-piece, the lobster mask she wore to her afterparty at Mr. Chow (glad guest Bruce Springsteen—you read that correctly—was around to enjoy it) and the fringe-festooned golden dress she wore Saturday, suggesting she could always settle for simple glamor if she ever gets tired of the au courant insanity. Not that she is, judging from the black lace we-don’t-know-what she wore to the Mac Viva Glam launch earlier today. See these looks and shots from the concert in the gallery below.
Kim Kardashian was in Vegas this weekend to yet again celebrate the launch of her eponymous fragrance. Dignifying the soireee somewhat was her choice in wardrobe—a tight-fitting dress blessed with crossing straps that barely kept Kim’s Kardashians from spilling out all over the place. We certainly like this more than the liquorice wrap she squeaked around in during Fashion Week. Get a closer look in the gallery below.
