Louis Vuitton has invited three personalities from the world of street art to give a new look to its emblematic scarves. Under Aiko, Retna, and Os Gemeos’ impulsion, the giant silk scarf, the stole and the regular silk scarf devote themselves to a new look, with inscriptions and colors bursting with style.

Kelly Clarkson Slams Clive Davis Over Memoir; Davis Responds
If you missed Kelly Clarkson’s scathing response to Clive Davis’ book, well…..read it here. When you’re done, you can check out Clive Davis’ response (below), as well as his appearance on Katie Couric talk show above. (when the f*** did she get one of those?):
“As anyone who has read The Soundtrack of My Life knows, I think Kelly Clarkson is a tremendous vocal talent and performer. In the book, I provide an in-depth look at our years together during which we shared major multi-platinum success, as well as a few creative differences. I am truly very sorry that she has decided to take issue with what I know to be an accurate depiction of our time together.
Before the book was published, I had every fact checked with five independent individuals who were present on a daily basis throughout it all. The chapter as it is written was thoroughly verified by each and every one of them. I stand by the chapter as written in my book. At the same time I wish, and will always wish, Kelly’s talent and her career to soar to ever new heights.”
Iggy Azalea Signs To Mercury Records
Iggy Azalea isn’t waiting up for others to screw around with her career, and she has officially signed with Mercury Records UK in lieu of her upcoming album The New Classic. This follows her removal of T.I. as executive producer of her project.
Mercury President Jason Iley spoke on the signing:
“Iggy Azalea is exactly the kind of artist we are trying to sign at Mercury – incredibly exciting and forward-thinking. With her new songs, she will leap forward from her brilliant mixtape,whilst retaining what makes her so utterly unique. She is without doubt going to be a force to be reckoned with.”
