Headlines




- Male model Randy Johnston (born in 1988) passed away on October 11th. One of his last projects was a spread in the recent i-D magazine with model Lara Stone. Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this difficult time. 

- "Kate Moss: The Movie? A group of Hollywood producers wants to make a movie about Moss and her Primrose Hill pals Sienna Miller, Sadie Frost, Rhys Ifans and company.
Apparently the filmmakers on board for this project are the same ones who brought us Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up and Superbad. Let's take a look at the movie-friendly themes that the life of Kate Moss has to offer:

Overcoming adversity: Moss, a dwarf of a model at 5'6", is currently the second-highest paid model in the world
Becoming an icon: In the '90s, the fashion world was addicted to heroin chic, and Moss was its pale-skinned, dark-eyed, bony beauty.
Getting caught in a drug scandal: Throughout her career, Moss has faced rumors of drug. use. In 2005 London's Daily Mirror published [photos] of Moss with her nose hovering perilously close to some lines of cocaine. Controversy ensued.
Making a comeback: Somehow the whole cocaine scandal thing did eventually, um, blow over.
Dating rock stars: Moss was briefly engaged to Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty [and is currently dating Jamie Hince of The Kills]."
