1. The Today Show experienced some rather severe technical difficulties on Thursday morning, with the audio deck in the studio breaking down. But the cast and crew were very much up to the challenge, laughing along with the absurdity of the situation. This was the (HILARIOUS) result:
A spokesperson for the network said: “Our production team moved quickly and managed to move the show into our news studios in record time.
“Not surprisingly, the on air team have had tremendous fun with this morning’s hiccups with Georgie giving the glass walls a quick windex wipe and Karl joking with our viewers that it was not so much a technical breakdown as it was a power outage due to all of Dickie’s hair appliances.”
2. Rihanna and Kate Moss have starred in a lesbian, S&M themed photo shoot for V magazine. Why? Excellent question. But really, who even needs an excuse to get naked/don crotchless pants and pose with whips and a mate. We do that when the kids are at Saturday morning sport. Standard practice really.
Take a look:
3. In another case of “photoshoots we can’t explain”, supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio has posed for an advertising campaign with her 4 year old daughter. Naked. To advertise for a clothing company called London Fog. Naked. To sell clothes… We don’t get it either.
Incidentally, Alessandra is best known for her work with Victoria’s Secret, who held their annual fashion parade this week. Flick through the images to see the models playing dress-ups on the catwalk. There’s a bicycle (complete with streamers on the handle bars), a sexy neurosurgeon and even something that appears to be a toddler’s play pen/bubble skirt:

Wow, first time visitor and why did I know about this wonderful site. Sitting in North QLD getting drenched and finding this is a great way to divert what is really going on in my part of Australia. Well done Mamamia!
I just needed somewhere to voice my despair over teen fashion today! I went to Supre wit my 13 year old daughter, sister-in-law and her 12 year old daughter, who had birthday money she wanted to spend. After an hour and a half we managed somehow to leave with 10 items of clothing that will actually cover the girl's bodies (especially when we insist they add leggings to short skirts and singlets under tops with arm holes that reach their hips!)
I just hope that by the time they "develop" physically, the fashion trends resemble "classic"Taylor Swift and not "Kiss my a#@" Kesha! Oh what a world we live in!
I agree, fashion for tweens is pretty horrendous Jane. I took my nieces to Target & Kmart to lay-by clothes for xmas. The quality of clothes is a little better and more of a selection. I try and lead by example (not saying you dont) but it's hard for them when "everyone" else is wearing it. My childhood wardrobe consisted of mostly homemade clothes plus tracksuit and stirrup pants, pretty dresses and some colourful t-shirts. My youngest niece is really into fashion, hopefully she won't be a devout trend follower as she gets older.
