Adam Lambert Launches Men's Cosmetics Line

Adam Lambert Launches Men's Cosmetics Line Get ready for guyliner to make a comeback, if Adam Lambert has his way. The American Idol star is looking to pick up where Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz left off in the crusade to get guys to start spending as much time prepping for a night out as their female counterparts. And it's not just guyliner that Lambert is planning on packaging and hawking to dudes; his man makeup "will also feature everything from foundation, concealer, shadow, mascara, and lip gloss, to nail polish," says Janet Charltons.

H & M Causes Hysteria In Tel Aviv & Toulouse (Not LA)

H & M Causes Hysteria In Tel Aviv & Toulouse (Not LA) A friend living in Tel Aviv just sent me video of the opening of H&M's first Israeli outpost. A description of the scene this morning reads as follows: "at 11 A.M. the doors opened and the crowd stormed into the 2,000-square meter store on the mall's third floor, pushing and trampling anyone and anything in its way, grabbing whatever it could before nothing would remain." Apparently 1,000 or so eager shoppers took to the freshly debuted shop's racks today with a no holds barred approach. And Tel Aviv's not the only global capital that saw a stampede run through its local H&M this week.

Converse Goes Highbrow

Converse Goes Highbrow Converse is one of the most collaboration-happy brands out there. Never one to shy away from artists, designers or general creative partnerships, the classic shoe has been reincarnated countless times. But with its latest series of collaborations, the iconic kick is upping the ante and forging some distinctly high-fashion territory. "As a farewell to esteemed Tokyo brand Number (N)ine, Converse recently teamed up with the now-defunct label for a final covetable collaboration," says Cool Hunting.

Beauty Trends Guaranteed to Annoy: Pastels, Watercolors, & Vampires

Beauty Trends Guaranteed to Annoy: Pastels, Watercolors, & Vampires When Kate Moss dyed her hair gray and the entire world erupted in awe, I immediately thought, "Oh shit, here we go." A lot of times I feel like beauty trends are a lot like reblogging -- people recycling stories while believing that they own it if it's respoken in their own style. But really, while they're walking around feeling like frontiersmen, hundreds of guys and girls are posturing the same. It's a beautiful thing when the runways inspire color palates and creativity, perhaps even a bit of jump-into-the-deep-end confidence by promising that style is for everyone. But some kids just ruin a trend by copying and pasting it directly to their face once they've seen an Olsen twin try it. These trends will probably be the first to die, or at least annoy you to death while you walk through Union Square, thanks to all the reblogging.

Where Celebs Go Out: America Ferrera, Harvey Keitel, Hope Davis

Where Celebs Go Out: America Ferrera, Harvey Keitel, Hope Davis At the premiere of Our Family Wedding:

● AMERICA FERRERA - "My favorite restaurant of the moment is Broadway East, on the Lower East Side."
● CHARLIE MURPHY - "I've been going to this Mexican restaurant in New Jersey. I think it's called El Torito, whatever. That's one of them. I go to so many restaurants. This is what I want to explain, so no one's insulted. I'm on the road 48 weeks of the year in different towns, and I go to a lot of restaurants, so to ask me what my favorite restaurant is, is kind of a hard question to answer. I like going to Baja Fresh in L.A."
● GRETCHEN ROSSI - "In Newport Beach, it's Flemings. It's a steakhouse, and I eat the steak and potatoes and everything that you can imagine on the menu. But I just eat small portions, so that you get a taste of everything."

'SNL' Makes Nice with Betty White-Led "Women of Comedy" Special

'SNL' Makes Nice with Betty White-Led Oh, good. Facebook conquers all not only when Mark What'shisface maybe-steals ideas from classmates and becomes a megazillionairess in the process, but also when its hapless addicts succeed in getting beloved comediennes who probably should've landed a plum hosting role on Saturday Night Live decades ago their overdue time in the sun. And while Betty White hosting and featuring on the only episode of SNL worth watching in the last eight to ten years is irrefutably a good thing, there are still a lot of issues around this installment. Issues that make it clear that, basically, a male-dominated sketch show is attempting to address allegations of sexism with a 90-minute LOLlapalooza specifically engineered to shut women up.
