Thanks to StyleInn; others welcome
We have never done much promoting of the Lucire blog, but we are quite happy for blogging networks to syndicate our RSS feed. We’ve noted that the nice folks at StyleInn have started including Lucire: Insider as part of their coverage, as have others, and welcome them. A Feedburner link is at the top right […]
Eva Mendes shows cheeky PETA campaign
On the Lucire site today: the glamorous and very curvy actress Eva Mendes stars in the new PETA ‘I’d rather go naked than wear fur’ campaign. Lucire is known to many animal cruelty campaigners and to PETA for its continual support of their causes, so unlike some publications covering the story, we practise what […]
We’re so used to Doug being the guy with the camera that at his own farewell at Wellington Airport, no one had one. Except those cameras on those newfangled cellphones. Alas, here is Mr Rimington heading to the gate in a less than stellar photograph—probably the way he prefers it since he doesn’t like […]
Times of India runs phony Victoria’s Secret story
Spotted at the Times of India on December 1: Australian model Miranda Kerr has revealed Hilton acted like a princess backstage at a lingerie range fashion show and stole her gorgeous runway out?t. The 24-year-old model has revealed the whole incident on a blog, which ultimately left the hotel heiress humiliated when she had an […]
The Delta Goodrem–Brian McFadden about-face
[Cross-posted] I spotted the below on Ninemsn today and thought, ‘Poor Brian.’ I clicked on the ?rst link and found quite the opposite: It’s not as embarrassing as the network, and the Murdoch Press, reporting on the Miranda Kerr incident two years late and getting the venue wrong, but it’s still an about-face. Netizens will […]
San Francisco Chronicle reports Miranda Kerr–Paris Hilton incident
Fascinating: after our post exposing the Miranda Kerr v. Paris Hilton incident at Victoria’s Secret to be false—or at least ridiculously inaccurate, with media outlets getting the year and the venue wrong—the Chronicle’s SFGate.com still reported it. It has taken the post down now, but not before Google News found it: Yes, we are […]

The organizers obliged and Kerr decided she would leave the matter to karma. […]
Claudia Schiffer holds off writing autobiography
Claudia Schiffer says she will continue to hold off writing an autobiography, citing that at 37 she is too young to write about her life. She is also not prepared to divulge personal details, guarding her private life closely. ‘I’ve had a lot of offers but I just don’t feel ready yet,’ she told […]
It’s not ‘Volante’, but I still read it
I spotted the Australian Travel & Leisure when in Sydney and I’ve noticed now the word Australia has become the words Australia & New Zealand very quietly. And being an American Express card member here (wank factor time: Platinum) I am going to be getting these babies free for the next year. The funny thing […]
ID Dunedin makes official announcement about event
The official announcement about next year’s Southern Trust ID Dunedin Fashion Week has arrived, as expected. As insiders know, the Southern Trust has taken over principal sponsorship of the event, after Vodafone felt its participation had run its course after 2007. And we’re glad the Trust has seen fit to support ID: it’s the premier […]
