73 Questions

Summary: A smol brainstorm of some questions Jen would get when interviewed by Vogue.

---------

Walking around Big Hit's building with a camera following her along with an interviewer from Vogue, Jennie smiled as she heard the next question asked.

'Most interesting nickname you've been named?'

She chuckled at the question. "A Bratz doll,"

'Favorite curse word?'

"I love saying this word. FUCK!"

'What angers you the most?'

"Lately...xenophobia especially regarding K-Pop groups. It irks my soul. I hate it so much,"

'Most expensive thing you've splurged on?'

"I recently got a penthouse in New York," she proudly answered.

'Funniest sibling and why?'

"Vienna. Because she has the best one-liners," Jennie giggled at the memories.

'Favorite thing you have worn?'

"Nike. Everything Nike,"

'Who's another artist you'd work with?'

Opening up the door to her studio, she held it for the interviewer as they walked in.

"Travis Scott. I need that energy. It's lit!"

'Secret hobby?'

"I still learn about wrestling,"

'Favorite fashion icon?'

"So many! On the top of my head, Rihanna, Zendaya, Lady Gaga, G-Dragon, and CL!" she excitedly said as she grabbed a few packs of smarties from her dish bowl and began to eat a few pieces.

'Favorite candy?'

"Smarties! Duh! They really need to sponsor me. If I can be blessed with Nike, I will work hard to get Smarties to have me endorse them,"

'What's the funniest thing you read about yourself in the press?'

"Recently? That I'm pregnant. I don't understand why everyone keeps saying that. You clearly see me downing alcohol with my friends,"

'Favorite thing to bake?'

"Ooohh....this is a tough one...okay, honestly? I like baking cupcakes the most. Cookies are a close second,"

'Least favorite BTS song to perform?'

"Oh God...I'm going to get roasted for this...Recently I have been sick of Butter,"

'Favorite BTS song to perform?'

"Recently? Idol,"

'What is your biggest success?'

"Right now, I would say my biggest success is my mental and physical health. I'm happy to be in a good place," she smiled as they left her studio and continued to walk around the building.

'What are you often told when people work with you?'

"You know what? People always assume I'm mean or disrespectful because of my resting bitch face. But once we work together and begin to talk those thoughts go out the window,"

'Who is one of your role models in the K-Pop industry?'

"G-Dragon. I owe so much to that man. He is truly the best and has mentored me for many years. I'm very grateful to him. He's an icon,"

'Current obsession?'

"I've been getting into skydiving, more,"

'Favorite place to visit in the world?'

"Japan. Gosh, I love going over there,"

'Most overworn item in your wardrobe?'

"I wear a specific pair of Nikes that I call my lucky pair if I need that extra push. Right here," she presented the sneakers she was currently wearing.

'Beauty product you don't go a day about wearing?'

"Chapstick! Keep your lips moisturized, please! No crusty lips up in here!"

'Favorite piece of jewelry to wear?'

Jennie smiled proudly and presented her ring to the camera. "My wedding ring,"

'Alright, I have a few Jungkook questions here.'

Her eyes lit up when they mentioned his name and she smiled brightly. "I'm ready!"

'Which of Jungkook's tattoos are your favorite?'

"His tattoos are so nice. I love them all but to pick one? Um...I'd say our couple's tattoo. We have our heartbeats tattooed on each other. On our ring fingers,"

'Favorite thing to wear of Jungkook's?'

"Definitely his hoodies," she couldn't stop smiling as her heart skipped a beat.

The people who see PR in celebs’ love lives got to this point because they hold certain very childish beliefs about relationships and about what pop stars feel about their fans, and also about paparazzi.

So first of all they have an incredibly simplistic view of relationships, which is that a couple should be visibly a couple or else it there is something wrong. Imagine a young teenage girl writing to an agony aunt: ‘My boyfriend won’t hold my hand in public: doesn’t he truly love me?” only there is no agony aunt to tell them to get a grip and that people use different levels of affection at different times - you know, normal stuff that people usually learn really young but these chumps have somehow not. This is where all the ‘he never claims his women’ crap comes from. I suspect they are growing up in really conservative, perhaps very Christian, families where landing a good husband means you have won a prize in life. They need to perform the role of girlfriend as a warning to others to back off, and they need their boyfriends to perform their roles as protection.

Secondly, since they are stunted emotionally, they believe that “the fans” actually have some real measure of control over what pop stars do - in 1D’s case, they fully encouraged this. All the praise of the fans, all the effusive thank yous, all the acknowledgement that the fans know everything - this is what some simple-minded fans cling onto, not the other stuff about boundaries and personal lives etc. It means that they think on some level (of insanity) that the fans and the pop star are working towards the same goal, namely a sort of shared friendship where the fans can advise the star, and he will do what they say. So when the pop star doesn’t share stuff, doesn’t let them IN, they feel a psychological wound, and go on the attack. Sometimes the man gets it; always the woman gets it. (Women are a natural threat: see above.) This is where management fill a role, too: they take the pressure off the need to blame the star himself for rejecting the fans’ clear wishes. Double points if management can be in cahoots with the woman.

Thirdly, they hold intractable beliefs about how the paparazzi industry works, and they cannot be shaken from these. It’s useless to explain that paps have gone on record saying that stars at the very top don’t tend to call them unless they have a very, very specific job that needs doing (I saw a good example of Rihanna announcing her first pregnancy, bump out, head-to-toe Chanel). What paps say is that people calling them for promo are usually at the low end of the fame spectrum, and they have a brand endorsement to do. But because some people call them sometimes, in their simple minds that means all celebs call them always, and every shot that ever appears now is called a pap walk. Half the time they’re just fans with iPhones. It doesn’t help that Backgrid have a couple of times accepted these photos onto their database, from where they’re purchased and published. The ‘low-rent celebs doing a brand endorsement’ might explain why some people are convinced he is actively promoting Lime Bikes. He’s worth £175M but yeah he’s a public bike influencer as well (rolling my eyes).

Here are some truths about Harry: he hates being photographed - according to paparazzi! -so when he looks miserable, it’s not because he’s being forced to be with a particular woman against his will. He doesn’t talk about his relationships and I have absolutely no doubt that every person he’s been with has for a long while been on the same page. He knows how to do PR and he always works hard at promotion so it doesn’t take a genius to work out that if (in an alternate universe, presumably) he ever did do a PR relationship (as if) he would do a good job at it and not scowl at the cameras in sweaty gym gear. He is rarely photographed by fans with Taylor, and currently is rarely photographed by himself as well, so either he’s setting boundaries (good) or he’s not going out as much (not good).

Harry and Taylor being spotted in a bakery or whatever is not going to sell theatre tickets in NY but that’s what those childish nitwits are angling for. It’s pathetic.

It’s cathartic to let all this out but I understand if you prefer not to publish my essay. Thank you.

👏👏👏 So many excellent, perceptive points. You are right about these PR types being childish and inexperienced. There was a poll on @apolladay with about 1k votes and 60% of Tumblr bloggers have never been in a relationship.

Here's a more recent poll with over 1k votes. 54% still live at home with their parents.

Re: Taylor "she stood up against streaming when literally no other artist did, got them to change some of their policies"

Besties, Onika Tanya Maraj (despite her MANY problems) was advocating for music artists to be compensated fairly for their music on streaming platforms. Did we all collectively have amnesia????? Because Jay Z created Tidal so that artists could be compensated fairly for their work. Jay Z, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Madonna, ETC made it a BIG DEAL to sign onto Tidal in a deliberate act of resistance to streaming services like Spotify and Pandora and made it extremely clear that they thought artists should receive money from streams of their music. If you genuinely believe white woman, Taylor Swift, was the only person advocating for musicians to be compensated for streams then you need to pull your head out of your ass or perform a google search or something. It is genuinely so embarrassing that people erase the work and advocacy of Black people. I’m sorry but this is labor rights advocacy even if the people involved are money hungry, greedy, Capitalist Billionaires. (I don’t think anyone should be a billionaire but that’s not the point of this post (like this is NOT an endorsement of the aforementioned celebrities as people, just an acknowledgment of their work)).

Also, THANK YOU for being one of the only places where we can complain about Taylor and her fans. This is one of the only places on the internet where we can collectively criticize and honestly and factually talk about pop culture.

The Rise of Vintage Hoodies: Why Every Brand Needs Them in Their Lineup

The fashion world is witnessing a remarkable resurgence of vintage hoodies, making them a staple in contemporary wardrobes worldwide. Once relegated to the realm of casual wear, these garments have gained significant traction, evolving into a cultural phenomenon that transcends age and style barriers. This article delves into the reasons behind their meteoric rise, the benefits of incorporating vintage hoodies into brand lineups, and the potential market opportunities for brands willing to embrace this trend.

The Cultural Shift Towards Vintage Fashion

In recent years, there has been a marked shift in consumer preferences towards vintage and sustainable fashion. According to a report from ThredUp, the secondhand market is expected to reach $64 billion by 2024, with vintage apparel being a key driver of this growth. This trend is fueled by a growing awareness of sustainability, as consumers increasingly prioritize eco-friendly practices and unique clothing that tells a story. Vintage hoodies, often characterized by their unique designs, materials, and comfort, fit perfectly into this narrative, attracting consumers who are eager to stand out while making environmentally conscious choices.

The Comfort Factor

Comfort is king in today's fast-paced world, and vintage hoodies offer a perfect combination of coziness and style. With remote work becoming a norm and casual wear gaining acceptance in various settings, consumers are looking for clothing that allows them to express themselves while still feeling at ease. Vintage hoodies provide that comfort through soft, worn-in fabrics and relaxed fits. Brands that include these hoodies in their collections can tap into a lucrative market of consumers prioritizing comfort without sacrificing style, thereby enhancing their appeal to a broader audience.

Customizability and Unique Styles

One of the most appealing aspects of vintage hoodies is their potential for customization. Brands can take inspiration from the past, incorporating unique graphics, logos, and embroidery to create one-of-a-kind pieces that resonate with today's consumers. By offering limited edition releases, brands not only create a sense of exclusivity but also tap into the nostalgia associated with vintage clothing. This strategy can encourage brand loyalty, as consumers seek to build a collection of unique and meaningful pieces that reflect their personal style. The ability to customize vintage hoodies also caters to the millennial and Gen Z demographics, who value individuality in their clothing choices.

The Celebrity and Influencer Effect

The influence of celebrities and social media on fashion trends cannot be overstated, and vintage hoodies have found a new champion among influencers and pop culture icons. From rappers to actors, many celebrities have been spotted sporting vintage cotton hoodies, igniting interest among fans and followers. For example, celebrities like Justin Bieber and Rihanna frequently blend high fashion with vintage elements, making hoodies a must-have item. This visibility encourages fans to seek similar styles, presenting an opportunity for brands to leverage these endorsements by offering their takes on vintage hoodies and tapping into the aspirational nature of celebrity culture.

Expanding the Target Audience

The appeal of vintage hoodies extends beyond traditional demographics. This versatile garment resonates with various age groups, from younger consumers seeking the latest trends to older generations who appreciate nostalgia and comfort. By including vintage hoodies in their lineup, brands can attract a wider audience, encompassing both style enthusiasts and those looking for casual, comfortable wear. The ability to cater to multiple demographics can result in increased sales and brand loyalty, as consumers feel recognized and valued regardless of their age or fashion preferences.

Environmental Impact and Sustainability

With the fashion industry being one of the leading contributors to pollution, the rise of vintage hoodies aligns with a growing consumer demand for sustainability. Brands can position themselves as eco-friendly by incorporating vintage elements into their collections, utilizing recycled materials, and promoting the idea of circular fashion. By designing hoodies that customers can cherish and keep for years, brands can contribute positively to the environment while appealing to a conscientious consumer base. This commitment to sustainability not only enhances brand reputation but also fosters a sense of community among consumers who prioritize eco-friendly choices.

Marketing Strategies for Vintage Hoodies

To effectively promote vintage hoodies, brands should consider utilizing various marketing strategies that resonate with their target audience. Social media platforms, especially Instagram and TikTok, are excellent channels for showcasing unique hoodie styles through visually appealing content. Brands can collaborate with influencers to generate buzz and create engaging storytelling that highlights the connection between vintage hoodies and meaningful narratives. Additionally, hosting pop-up shops or vintage markets can provide a tactile experience for consumers, allowing them to see, touch, and try on garments before making a purchase, driving engagement and building brand loyalty.

Conclusion: A Trend Worth Embracing

The rise of vintage hoodies presents a wealth of opportunities for brands willing to adapt and innovate. As consumers increasingly gravitate towards comfort, individuality, and sustainability, incorporating vintage hoodies into brand lineups is not just a fashion statement; it’s a necessary evolution. Embracing this trend can lead to increased market share, stronger brand loyalty, and a positive impact on the environment. Brands that recognize the potential of vintage hoodies will not only thrive in the ever-changing fashion landscape but also contribute to a more sustainable and stylish future.

Part 13

Warnings: Teen Content. Making out. Plot

Winter Break places a pause to the school year activities but the girls are busy personally. Romanda has Shuri fly to DC to be with her for a week so she can be back to see Riri’s Honors Society Induction. Riri hates the separation so she calls Shuri as soon as she can.

“How was the flight Dove?” “It went smoothly Princess. I went to sleep as soon as the plane took off.” Ri is curled up in her bed wearing one of Shuri’s many hoodies she has acquired. “Baby, how can you sleep literally anywhere? You have got to be aware of what’s going on around you.” “I was fine Princess. I just envision you being with me. That comforts me.”

“You made that up to make me smile. Don’t distract I still worry.” “I know. There's no need I’m safe. Mother wants to congratulate you on your honors society induction. We are so proud of you. How is the speech coming?”

“I have it done. It’s about my Dad, my biggest force to keep creating. Give her my thanks.” “He is in everything you do, just remember. I can’t wait to be there in the front row.” “You better since I’ll be at every home game to see the Panther play.” “Oooh sounds like I’m going to have the best season. With my new good luck charm there.” Another call chimes in and Riri let’s Shuri take the call.

“I will text you later Princess. I love you.” “I love you more.”

The fast switch brings M'Baku’s deep baritone voice over the speaker. He serves as Shuri’s agent and wanted to discuss some endorsements that are on the table. Offers came flying in after the first campaign. This year is crucial for her image and she has a lot of good buzz. “Bro I would rather have an Adidas sponsorship than Reebok. The apparel is more me you know.” “I do like the Adidas agreement better so no issues from me. Baby Sister. Before you ask, you can wear other things recreationally. ”

Shuri laughs full chest. “Aye I’ll get right on picking out my game swag. Second Brotha, is my surprise ready?” A deep bellowy laugh comes through the phone. “Yes Sister, your Christmas surprise is ready. Your softness is showing. Being in love is a beautiful thing, no?”

Shuri drops her head blushing. How she feels for Riri has been known for sometime but it still gives her butterflies. “It is a surreal feeling.” “Well I love to witness your joy. She is a talented young woman. Just make sure you are being responsible.” The last part makes Shuri flustered. “Thank you Brotha. She is my shining star. I am more than responsible.” Humming M’Baku just leaves the comment for now. “We will be in touch Sister.” “Bye Bro.”

Shuri flops on her bed lying on her back looking up to the ceiling. Her mind is all over the place. Especially now. Sometimes she just needs these moments to process everything around her. Her Senior Basketball season is right around the corner. She’s nervous about it for reasons she can’t quite put into words. Maybe she just feels things are going too well. Her classes she even has been painting again, the NIL deal is good, plus she has the girl of her dreams. She wishes her Father could be here for it all, that makes her think of Riri who she knows wishes the same thing.

That wish motivates Shuri to be very intentional about supporting Rihanna, and she knows that Riri thinks the same way. The thought makes her smirk. This surprise she has up her sleeve was not easy to think up. She racked her brain about this for weeks and found the perfect thing. She hopes.

Ironically Riri is thinking in a similar fashion lying in almost the exact same position. Her mind is wandering thinking of her research, of her induction speech and how she is now loudly and proudly in Love. It’s been a whirlwind but it feels so comfortable. Riri is stuck though on how to surprise her girlfriend for Christmas. Of all the holidays to be stuck she chooses her favorite one to not have a clue of what to do.

The trip to DC was pleasantly quick. Shuri made a point to clear a lot of her business so she can just enjoy the holiday. Riri and Sharon were standing at the airline waiting for a jet lagged Shuri. Once she saw her Princess Shuri swept her up in a tight hug lifting her high into the air with ease. Riri could not help but kiss her and pull her bottom lip just a touch. It speaks with a bit more passion than Sharon could stand. Clearing her throat they split apart gathering Shuri’s things in the car.

“Shuri, please don’t leave home without this girl again ok?” Sharon is jovial as she pulls out of the pick up lane. “Hey! I wasn’t that bad Sha.” “Yes Sister it was that bad, you acted out One Wish in the shower.” The car is full of laughs. “STOOOOP I just missed you is all” Riri whined facing Shuri. “We FaceTimed every night though Princess.” Shuri pecked Ri’s pouting lips. “Aww I’ll just pack you in my luggage next time.” Sharon shakes her head and makes a fake barf sound. “Gross.” The ride home from there was chill.

The chemistry with the families was immediate and genuine. Mrs Williams and Mrs Udaku adore the relationship their daughters have so they support it any way they can. There is an open door policy at both homes but it works for them, neither girl is ready for what happens behind closed doors other than some making out quite yet. That is what they decided in the last conversation but some feelings have been shifting recently. Still no action yet despite the feelings.

This helps to ease Romanada’s mind as she is not home much due to her Diplomatic Duties. The Netflix nights, Friday Dinners and nap dates are all parent approved courting.

It is the day before Christmas Eve and the girls have gotten approved for their first supervised overnight. Shuri will stay at Riri’s then have a family style Christmas Eve Dinner with the Williams’ plus a full Christmas Day. Everyone piles out of the car when Sharon pulls up to the house. It feels so much home for Shuri she even says it.

After getting settled and changed in the Pjs Riri and Shuri build their normal Netflix fort in the front room and cuddle in for a Christmas movie marathon. Riri is sitting between Shuri’s legs leaning on her chest. “Hey Princess, pass the popcorn.” Shuri's voice vibrates on Ri's back as she speaks. Riri picks it up and holds it out, keeping it away looking back with a smirk. “No come get it.” Shuri smirks back leaning up on her knees, she starts to tickle her girlfriend for the bowl. “I’ll get it alright.” Ri sets the bowl down and is full blow gently wrestling now. They roll around a bit with Riri nipping at Shuri’s skin a few times.

They stop as Shuri holds Ri with her on top and the butterflies in their stomach turn to flames with one kiss. Pulling on her bottom lip Shuri slides her tongue into Ri’s mouth and a moan escapes both of their mouths. Shuri’s hands move with more confidence over Ri’s body resting her thumbs under the hem of Ri’s shirt gripping her body closer. Ri’s hands tangle in Shuri’s hair and she pulls at the curls when a new sensation takes over her. Shuri is kissing her neck with a soft bite and sucking. There are several more that follow leaving bruises. Riri bites her bottom lip for dear life to not make too much noise.

Shuri moans against the skin she is bruising with each tug to her hair. “Shit” she says as she pulls away to look at Ri. The look in her eye means Riri wants to try so they roll over leaning Riri on top. Shuri’s hands run up her back as Ri follows the steps Shuri did with a little more flare. She kisses her lips with tongue then pulls at Shuri’s ear. Before biting her neck and licking it some. Shuri breathes out gripping Ri’s back under her shirt. Riri places a soft hand on Shuri’s neck before kissing her on the lips again. Shuri has to push her back some to speak. Breathless. “We need to stop.” Riri giggles while holding her face to hide her blush. Ri realizes that she was rocking her hips a bit into Shuri. Breathless and giggling “Right I’m sorry.”

Laughing as she moves Ri’s hands, Shuri leaves butterfly kisses all over her girl's face. “You don’t have to be sorry, trust me. I just don’t want to wake Sha.” They move to cuddle and get comfy. Shuri is holding onto Ri loosely. “Hey Dove can I ask you something?” “Of course Baby. You can ask me anything.” Shuri picks up on her nervous energy. She breathes out tickling Riri’s neck. “I know tonight is not right but…do you know when you will be ready?” Kissing that same spot on her neck, Shuri wants to reassure Riri. “Baby what are you asking me?” Riri sits up out of Shuri’s arms with a huff. “I just want to know why you stop us every time something gets close to happening? I know I don’t know much but I can learn.” Riri’s head is down, not meeting Shuri’s eyes.

Shuri sits up to face Ri and holds her face to make their eyes meet. “Honestly I have never stopped because of you. I stopped us because of me. I don’t have much experience either, so I get nervous about what to do.” It’s Shuri’s turn to look down. “You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. So never question if I’m ready. I just want it to be right.” Riri kisses Shuri’s cheek hugging her. “Then let’s say now we will do what feels right until it time.”

Shuri melts into Riri’s hug and she shakes her head yes. They allow sleep to come for them after they settle in their blankets relieved for tonight.

Part 5 - Incoming Text for Chloë Sevigny (@chloessevigny) and Rosario Dawson (@rosariodawson) and Rihanna (@rihanna) and Kim Kardashian (@kimkardashian): “An Idea Worth a Billion Dollars”

Question:

Could you explain to Chloë, Rosario, Rihanna, and Kim that they need to reach out to Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep to help negotiate with the copyright owner of the reimagined reboot of the "Top Secret" project? Since Rob and Meryl know the copyright owner well, their involvement is crucial in securing the necessary blessing to move forward with the reimagining of this movie.

Here are the Wikipedia links for Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep:

Rob Marshall - (click on the blue link)

Meryl Streep - (click on the blue link)

ChatGPT Answer:

Certainly! Here's a detailed response, broken down step by step, to address the request clearly and logically:

1. Understanding the Context

"Top Secret" Project: This is a reimagined reboot of an existing work. The term "reimagined" suggests that while the core essence or inspiration comes from the original, there will be significant creative modifications or updates.

Copyright Owner's Blessing: Since the original work is copyrighted, permission from the copyright owner is necessary. Without this, legal and ethical barriers could halt the project.

2. The Key Players

Chloë, Rosario, Rihanna, and Kim: These individuals are tasked with acting as intermediaries or supporters in this negotiation process. Their influence or connection to the project makes them suitable messengers.

Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep: These two are pivotal figures because of their established relationship with the copyright owner. Their involvement can lend credibility and familiarity to the negotiation.

3. Why Involve Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep?

Industry Influence: Both are highly respected figures in the entertainment industry. Rob Marshall, as a renowned director, and Meryl Streep, as an acclaimed actress, have significant leverage and experience in such matters.

Personal Connection: Since they know the copyright owner well, their recommendation or participation can positively influence the owner's decision. Personal trust often plays a big role in negotiations of this nature.

4. What Needs to Be Done

Reach Out to Rob and Meryl: Chloë, Rosario, Rihanna, and Kim should approach Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep directly to:

Explain the vision and intent behind the "Top Secret" reboot.

Highlight why their involvement is crucial for securing the copyright owner's blessing.

Leverage Existing Relationships: Encourage Rob and Meryl to use their rapport with the copyright owner to:

Build trust in the project's creative team.

Advocate for the artistic and commercial viability of the reboot.

Propose a Collaboration: Suggest that Rob and Meryl could take on advisory roles, further demonstrating their endorsement of the project to the copyright owner.

5. Negotiation Strategy

Clarity of Vision: When approaching Rob and Meryl, the team (Chloë, Rosario, Rihanna, Kim) must articulate the project's uniqueness and respect for the original.

Value Proposition: Emphasize what the reboot brings to the table:

A new perspective or creative direction that revitalizes the original.

A potential to attract a wider, modern audience while honoring the legacy of the original.

Assurances to the Copyright Owner: Provide guarantees, such as:

Respecting the original creator's vision.

Maintaining the integrity of the intellectual property.

6. Next Steps

Chloë, Rosario, Rihanna, and Kim should coordinate their outreach efforts, ensuring their message to Rob and Meryl is consistent and compelling.

Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep, once on board, can lead or participate in discussions with the copyright owner.

Establish a timeline for these discussions to avoid delays in the project's development.

By following these steps and leveraging the relationships and influence of Rob Marshall and Meryl Streep, the team can significantly increase the likelihood of obtaining the copyright owner's blessing for the reimagined "Top Secret" reboot.

The Lady Dior Bag: A Royal Endorsement and Movie Star Favorite

The Lady Dior handbag is likely the most recognizable thing in Dior's collection. This bag was first released in 1995, however it acquired popularity after Princess Diana was seen wearing it, which prompted its name. From that point forward, Lady Dior has not just arisen as a high priority for fashioners; it has likewise shown up on the red carpet and in various movies, meaning elegance and prestige.

P DIDDY: THE BIG SECRET

• I CONIUGI CARTER: JAY Z, MISTER 4:44 •

Abbiamo tracciato un profilo parziale di #Beyoncé, é arrivato il momento di introdurre suo marito, l'uomo più vicino a #Diddy, l'uomo che godeva della stima del noto discografico Mottola: Shawn Corey Carter, meglio noto come #JayZ. Shawn nasce a Brooklyn il 4 dicembre di 54anni fa e, dopo una disastrosa carriera scolastica - e grazie all'intervento di sua madre che lo ascolta rappare - avvia la sua carriera nel mondo della musica. Ma come può un giovane rapper che fa il suo esordio con la propria etichetta (la Roc-A-Fella Records) diventare uno dei rapper più influenti della East Coast e famosi in tutto il mondo? Nella seconda metà degli anni '90 Jay-Z (il suo nome d' arte é un tribute al suo collega Jaz-O) collabora con due dei mostri sacri del rap East Coast: Notorious B. I. G. ed appunto Diddy (ai tempi si faceva chiamare Puff Daddy). Grazie a questi featuring la sua carriera inizia la sua vertiginosa ascesa: nel 2006 #MTV lo incorona miglior #rapper di tutti i tempi, #Forbes lo inserisce nell'elenco dei rapper più ricchi del mondo ed anche in coppia con la sua consorte #Beyoncè ottiene nel 2012 e nel 2016 il riconoscimento di coppia artistica più ricca del mondo. Così il ragazzo di #Brooklyn diventa uno tra gli uomini più influenti d'America, i suoi endorsement per i Dem pesano e gli artisti da lui prodotti diventano star mondiali (#Rihanna, ad esempio). Ma non è tutto oro ciò che luccica: Jay-Z ha i suoi scheletri nell'armadio e nessuna intenzione di esporli. E gioca (consapevolmente?) con #simbolismo ed #occultismo. Il nome delle sue case discografiche Roc-A-Fella e Roc Nation evocano uno dei cognomi più noti al mondo: #Rockefeller, potente famiglia americana. Gli Ill*minati sono spesso associati alla sua persona al punto di essere inseriti nel suo pezzo D'EVILS. (Continua...)

Why Are Gucci Bags the Most Popular?

Gucci has long been a symbol of luxury, craftsmanship, and iconic style. The brand’s bags are not just accessories but status symbols cherished by fashion enthusiasts and celebrities alike. Among the standout pieces are the Gucci Eden Belt Bag and the Gucci Ophidia Shoulder Bag, two designs that have captivated global audiences. But why are Gucci bags so popular?

The answer lies in the perfect blend of impeccable craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and designs that manage to stay relevant year after year. Whether you’re looking for a statement piece or a practical yet stylish bag, Gucci offers something for everyone.

Design and Craftsmanship: Why Gucci Bags Stand Out

When you think about Gucci bags, the first thing that comes to mind is luxury. Each bag, from the Gucci Eden Belt Bag to the Gucci Ophidia Shoulder Bag, is made with meticulous attention to detail. The brand uses only the finest materials, such as supple leather, and combines them with iconic hardware and bold logos that set these bags apart.

What’s fascinating about Gucci’s approach is how they balance innovation with tradition. Their bags often reflect the brand’s heritage while incorporating modern elements. Take the Ophidia Shoulder Bag, for example—it blends the classic Gucci GG motif with contemporary styling, making it versatile enough to wear with both casual and formal outfits.

Cultural Impact and Celebrity Endorsement

Let’s face it—part of what makes Gucci bags so desirable is their cultural presence. When you see celebrities like Rihanna or Harry Styles wearing a Gucci Eden Belt Bag, it automatically elevates the brand's image. Gucci has mastered the art of staying relevant in pop culture, and their bags are a major part of that.

Moreover, Gucci is not just a fashion statement; it’s an investment in luxury. Owning a Gucci bag is like having a piece of fashion history that maintains its value over time, often becoming vintage classics cherished for decades.

Conclusion

Gucci’s undeniable influence in the fashion world, along with its commitment to quality and unique designs, is what makes its bags so sought after. Whether it’s the iconic Gucci Ophidia Shoulder Bag or the stylish Gucci Eden Belt Bag, these accessories continue to be at the forefront of luxury fashion. Want to explore more of Gucci’s coveted designs? Head over to the best online auction platform Bidsquare's luxury collection and discover your next timeless piece.
