Hollywood It Girls Go Pinup

Susannah BreslinNovember 4, 2008 //

Dita Von Teese, watch out. Check out this coffee table book of photographs by celebrity photographer Timothy White, starring Hollywood It-girls done up as retro-pinups. In the past, White’s shot stars ranging from Harrison Ford to Will Smith, but this time around he went for old school Hollywood, girly glamor. His pinup makeover subjects include Cindy Crawford, Gina Gershon, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Kate Hudson, Michelle Trachtenberg, Molly Sims, Vanessa Williams, and Mary-Kate Olsen. You can check out Olsen’s shot here. We like that the images are classy, not crass. These days, more is the new less. Keep reading »

    Royal Mix-Up: Prince Charles Invites Dita Von Teese Over

    SimchaJuly 30, 2008 //

    Who can resist the charms of glamour queen Dita Von Teese? Not even stodgy Prince Charles, which is why he introduced himself to the attractive alabaster stranger at a Cartier event. When the Royal asked Ms. Dita what she did, she replied that she was a “dancer.” When Prince Charles unwittingly asked the dancer to do a number at Prince Harry’s upcoming birthday party in September, he had no idea he’d get more show than he bargained for. After the damage, er booking, was done, an aide informed the culturally clueless Prince Charles about Dita’s contributions to the art of striptease and he was mortified. After all, what would his mummy think?! We think under those suits and floral hats, there’s a side to the Queen that likes to get down — or at least appreciate a woman who can. But we’ll have to wait and see if the real tassel-twirling burlesque show will go on at Buckingham Palace. [Daily Star]

    Dita’s Diamond

    Catherine StrawnMarch 31, 2008 //

    Last week, we discussed who gets the ring if an engagement is broken off. But what do you do with the ring if you get to keep it? It’s not like you can wear it on another finger — engagement rings are just a little too distinctive-looking. Well, Dita Von Teese took her diamond from former husband Marilyn Manson and had Christian Dior make it into an even more gorgeous ring. “It’s nice; it’s big. I feel like I suffered greatly for that diamond, and it needed to be reborn into something better.” [NY Times] Keep reading »

    The Daily Squeeze: Dita’s Bras, Classical Music, And Movie Theater Popcorn

  • Dita Von Teese has been recruited by Wonderbra to design vintage-style underthings, including a limited-edition bra for Victoria’s Secret. [AHN]
  • Ever wonder why a box of Raisinets costs, like, $5 at the movie theater when you can get them for $2 at a convenience store? Well, charging so much on snacks is what keeps the price of movie tickets down, according to researchers at the University of California Santa Cruz and Stanford University. If popcorn were free, ticket prices would go up 25 percent. And at that price, we would all buy the DVD and microwave popcorn and stay at home — at least our cuddling wouldn’t be hindered by annoying armrests. [San Jose Mercury News]
  • A classical music ensemble will be performing “Sex Music” in NYC next Friday, March 7. The musicians will explore music’s erotic side with songs such as Salome’s “Dance of the Seven Veils” and Frank Zappa’s “G-Spot Tornado.” At one point, the solo bassist will even sing, hum, and whisper to his instrument. Hot. [City Guide]
