Madonna and daughter Lourdes, set to launch new clothing line!

Madonna and child. What a tandem!
The Material Girl and daughter Lourdes, are set to launch, of course, 'Material Girl', which is a new clothing line that pays tribute to the 1980's leather-and-lace days.
The 51-year-old pop queen and 13-year-old daughter will be introducing their concept at Macy's which will include, a black dress priced at $24, a floral skirt for $22, and $58 for a studded vest.
The line will be making its debut with clothing, shoes, jewelry and handbags, yet Macy also plans to venture into other categories such as fragrance, come next year. The target market for these items would be teens who are a bit tight on the pockets, something less than an average of $40.
Executives at Macy's were asked on how relevant Madge was with today's young generation. Jeff Gennete, chief merchandising officer for Macy's, has this to say, "She has a fashion credibility that is incredibly apparent to anybody."
Retail analysts were a bit skeptical. Kelly Tackett, senior analyst for apparel at the consulting firm Kantar Retail, explains that making a long term investment in a celebrity brand can be a bit risky and its brand equity could just drop, unexpectedly.
The queen of pop's clothing line is actually an attempt to compete with fast fashion stores such as Forever 21 and H&M, which are known for getting trends into stores, and converting these sketches into clothes in just a matter of weeks.
Madonna's timing could not have been perfect, in which her line would be injecting items that are a reflection of 80's flashbacks, and stuff you've actually seen the 51-year-old musician wear.
Yup, the 80's was definitely the era to be in. More power, Madge!

Yeah, that's cool. But I think fans want to read more interviews of the movie's stars like Robert Pattinson who talks about sex and religion, and Kristen Stewart's hairstylist, talking about the actress' new hair 'do.
Robert Pattinson, who plays the role of Edward Cullen, surprises my exaggerated imagination after talking about "sex" and "relationship" in the "Twilight" films.
He said: "If they just randomly had sex it would ruin the whole series. It’s that moment of anticipation – whether it’s at the point of not knowing if someone likes you, or whether they like you enough to go into this."
Actually, he's talking about Edward and Bella's very unique and very wholesome relationship. Why not, the elements of the character's relationship keep the fans wanting more.
Aside from his character's sexual and emotional relationship, Rob Pattinson also talks about religion and starting his own record album. He said: "I definitely want to record an album, direct a film and start my own religion." OMG, this is really funny.
Meanwhile, Kristen Stewart's new hair 'do was explained by an UsMagazine post. K-Stew's hairstylist Frederic Fekkai's Adir Abergel tells the magazine's website: "Kristen is preparing to play Mary Lou in the 1950's drama, On the Road. I wanted to bring her hair closer to her natural color: blonde."
Okay, expect more fans copying her hair and posting their photos online!

Lindsay Lohan sued by boutique for unpaid bills!

For a while, I thought things were taking a 360 degree turn for the troubled media queen, but nooo! She does it again with another fast one up her sleeves. This time, she's on the firing end of some accessory store in Los Angeles.
Tough as Nails, the name of the boutique has filed suit against the 'Freaky Friday' star for unpaid bills. According to reports, Lohan has spent around $17,000 worth of goodies since November of last year, and has managed to only settle $180 of the total amount. The boutique had taken her good word when the actress bought a a bunch of items on the store's tab. And that would be the biggest blunder of all, people!
Reps of the said store has disclosed that the representations made by Lohan were in fact false and that they must make necessary measures to recover their losses.
According to Bill Crockett, who tells E News, "Filing suit was the last thing we wanted to do, but after six months of not being paid, my clients were left with no choice. They started this business from scratch and that they have been successful in attracting an elite clientele does not mean they should be abused."
Alright, it's a given. Lilo being bad news is an understatement. The ones who truly deserve that lawsuit are the ones in charge of the boutique. Is there actually a lawsuit for ignorance? I mean, they had to wait all this time before they woke up. Like, were they starstruck?? 'Yes Lilo, you could take anything you want, deary. Just sign your autograph where we want it signed, okay?
Which reminds me, Madonna's opening up a new clothes line....

A stripper has surfaced out of nowhere claiming that Dr. Conrad Murray, was with her at Michael Jackson's house after an invitation from the physician.
According to the stripper, who states that she was on her shift at Sam's Hof Brau on June 24, 2009, claims to have witnessed Dr. Murray having a few drinks prior to midnight, hours before the king of pop's death. The physician invited her as well to MJ's home in Homby Hills. She then reveals that after the club closed, she went over late one night to find Jackson was there, yet in deep sleep.
TMZ reports that Brian Oxman, Joe Jackson's attorney, will be interviewing the stripper and has already scheduled an appointment to further bring light to the star witness's claims.
Oxman also accused the doctor of drinking at Sam's Hof Brau before proceeding to MJ's place, which is mentioned in a letter of intent to sue.
However, Dr. Murray's reps have contradicted such allegations, insisting that the doctor was nowhere near the club and that he doesn't drink.
So was the doctor wasted when he treated MJ? The court saga continues.
Madonna and child. What a tandem!
