I get by with a little help from my stylist.

One thing that bugs me above all else is people getting credit for things they didn't even do themselves. Well everyone knows most pop artist's dont write their own songs but some people seem completely blinded that they choose all their clothes themselves. Wrong!

Take Rihanna for example, everyone thinks shes cutting edge and has a wicked sense of style but do you really think she would turn from ghetto fabulous pop princess to crazy bride of Frankenstein-esque punk within the space of an album? Well unless a punch from Chris Brown somehow moved her fashion brain cells into place basically Rihanna got a fucking sick new stylist.


I can tell you now if she was a nobody, she hadn't released pon de replay or she was in a metal band the girls that bum her and run around shaving their hair off to look like her would think shes a complete freak.

And Cheryl Cole, wikipedia may refer to her as a "style icon" but straight up, if there wasn't a wardrobe department on the X factor she'd turn up in a Kappa track suit and some nice Elizabeth Duke jewellery from Argos every day. I think everyone's to busy rimming her and her "fantastic taste in fashion" to remember that shes just some sket that won a competition and beat up a cleaner in a toilet!

I know at the end of the day its only clothes, and lets face it pop stars are just mannequins to shift records and make $$$ it just annoys me that people like Rihanna get so much credit for her dress sense being so ground breaking and rebellious dressing the way she does. To me, a true style icon wether it be someone wearing just jeans and a t-shirt or even an Oscar de la renta evening gown are people who at the end of the day have the balls to look like and be nobody but themselves.

Peace.
