Diddy Wants A Spot in Your Living Room!

30 Nov

Sean “Diddy” Combs wants to get into your living room.

Why? Well, he’d like to sell you a few of the things that continue to make him famous.

I’m told the entrepreneurial icon will make two LIVE appearances on HSN to debut his fragrances, Holiday Gift Sets and an exclusive Sean John robe on the shopping network.

The shows air Monday, November 30 at 11.00 p.m. ET and Tuesday, December 1 at 1.00a.m. ET.

After seeing episodes of “I Want to Work for Diddy,” I think it might be interesting to watch him try to sell bottles of “Unforgivable” for a change.

I guess I got distracted on Wednesday night (November 18) — and perhaps the day after, too.

Somehow, I completely forgot to mention Nicole Fox’ win of ANTM Cycle 13. This means that she is the first ever winner in the show’s experiment with shorter contestants.

Congratulations, Nicole!

If you missed the final episode, which 2.7 million watched last week, or just want to see it again, you may view it on www.cwtv.com.

Alicia Keys Launches Jewelry Line

The singer has partnered in The Barber’s Daughters, a jewelry line created by designer, Gisèle Theriault. According to www.thebarbersdaughters.com, it features hand-crafted precious-metal and gemmed jewelry inscribed with inspiration.

Just three weeks ahead of Keys’ new album release, the New York debut will feature a two-day only retail gallery event.

Open to the public, the “jewelry experience” will make free raffle tickets available to visitors on the first day. Each entry gives fans a chance to win a meet and greet with Alicia on November 24.

Fash Fix: What to Do with An Old Winter Coat

21 Nov

Chances are you’ve got some old winter coats, which you need to get rid of.

If there’s a Burlington Coat Factory in your area, you’re in luck. (Find a store)

From now through January 15, 2010, each store will have a drop-off box so shoppers can make donations to the “Warm Coat & Warm Hearts Drive.”

Of course, all coats should be in good condition, with working closures, and no rips or stains.

What’s more, you’ll receive a receipt for tax purposes and, as a thank-you, a coupon for 10 percent off your next Burlington Coat Factory purchase through December 24, 2009.

Coats collected will be distributed to families nationwide.

Life After Project Runway Season Six

20 Nov

I guess we should all practice pronouncing Irina Shabayeva’s last name.

Because whether we like it or not, she ran away with top honors on Project Runway’s Season Six. And we’ll probably be seeing a whole lot more of her.

Now that I’ve got that out of the way, allow me to share some quick facts about Season Seven.

  • The show returns to New York City. (Yaaaay!!!!)
  • It premieres Thursday, January 14, 2010 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.
  • Mentor Tim Gunn isn’t going anywhere!
  • The show will again feature guest judges from the worlds of fashion, film and television. (I’m really on the fence about this, especially after this season‘s at-times-blah guests)
  • For the first time, the show will be shot and distributed in High-Definition (HD), setting the precedent for all future tapings.
  • Models of the Runway will again follow Project Runway, this time without that designer-model loyalty stuff that annoyed the hell out of me (us?) every week.

Remember, if there’s anything Project Runway you missed, you can watch full episodes on MyLifetime.com.
