Lady Gaga Covers Vogue US in Haider Ackmermann Jumpsuit and Pink Wig: Magazine Glam

A new star has been added to the American Vogue cover girl rotation: the Queen of Pop (and my personal favorite) Lady Gaga. Upon seeing the new cover on Twitter, I shrieked and squealed (as is a Glamazon tradition) out of delight and well, shock.

Lady Gaga is quite rebellious, edgy and bold to join the ranks of (snore) Anne Hathaway, Sarah Jessica Parker, Nicole Kidman, Blake Lively, Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry and the like, essentially elite Hollywood (save a celebrated Beyonce and Michelle Obama moment). But this could be a sign Vogue is joining our pop culture obsession, and the present. SN: Rumor also has it Rihanna has an upcoming Vogue cover. Interesting...


On her lovely cover, Gaga wears a Haider Ackmermann Spring 2011 jumpsuit in blush, inside she goes for his gown in brilliant blue.












I think it's BEYOND stunning. Sure the bare makeup, pink bob and elegant jumpsuit isn't exactly typical Gaga (I mean, she's not naked covered in meat or wearing a shotgun bra) but it's not typical Vogue either. It seems Anna Wintour and Lady Gaga met somewhere in the middle. I would've loved something futuristic, structured and avante garde but that'd be more reminiscent of Elle Magazine, don't you think?

Toned-down Gaganess aside, I think the cover is beautiful and am excited to see more pictures (and finally, hear Born This Way!). What do you think of the cover?

Kisses,

Coutura

BEAUTY NEWS: Lady Gaga's First Scent To Smell Like Blood And Semen

Remember when we told you all about how Lady Gaga had inked a deal with Coty to create her own fragrance? Well, now we've got even more deets!


It has been confirmed that her debut scent will be called Monster and is officially being created in the lab. It seems pretty normal, but you know there’s always an eerie quirkiness to anything that Gaga’s involved with. Brace yourself for these deets-- she wants the scent to smell like semen and blood. No, I’m not kidding! If you’re a fan of smelling like man juice and other bodily fluids, then this is the fragrance for you.

Shock was not my initial reaction to the thought of spraying myself in a scent inspired by bodily fluids, but I must admit that the thought alone made me gag. The shock value was fairly low though, after all, this is Lady Gaga that we’re talking about! If there's ever an envelope to be pushed in society, she’s usually the one doing it. I mean just think about her alter ego Jo Calderone (yes, it’s a man) or her game-changing fashion sense and social impact on the world. Who’s to say that the beauty industry’s excluded?

The scent is scheduled to hit store shelves by Spring 2012 and I’m definitely not-so-eager to test it out.

Glamazons, what’s your take on the perfume? Will you be dousing yourself in this man juice and blood concoction?

Ciao Bellas!

Lady Gaga's NEW Song + Mugler Menswear Show in Paris [Video]

Skeleton body tattoos, 80's fashion, latex, club anthems! When there's this much fashion-crazed, maddened energy in one place, Lady Gaga is not far behind.

I'm talking about the House of Mulger Menswear show which took place yesterday in Paris unveiling the first collection with Gaga stylist, Nicola Formichetti (below) as creative director.






The much talked-about collection premiere is en tandem with the debut of a never-before-heard Gaga track off Born This Way, coming out this Spring! Umm, sidenote: I cannot WAIT. Total Gaga withdrawal.

The techno bass-heavy song is an ideal compliment to the 80's-inspired collection of strong-shouldered suits and outerwear. The message was extremity. Silhouettes were baggy and then, shockingly tight; colors were deep and dark and then, bright and bold.

The "flawed superhuman" theme of the collection, designed by Romain Kremer, materialized in neoprene, plastic, nylon and latex outerwear. And then there were head covers, masks and crowns. And we can't forget those much-talked-about skeleton tattoos on Canadian model Rick Genest.





Check out the dark fashion film, directed by Mariano Vivanco with music by Lada Gaga and snippets from Mugler's show below via Stylelist:




What do you think of the collection, film AND song? LOL. Are you excited for Lady Gaga's new album?

Kisses,

Coutura

#Best of 2010: 10 Most Memorable Beauty Moments

And just like that Glamazons, we're already on to a New Year! (2011..woo hoo!) I still can't even believe that 2010 is almost over! Can you?! I remember when it started and I swore up and down to myself that I was going to change up my hair color (yeah, it's still blonde, but I love it so!) and do more sophisticated things such as wear a new lipstick shade every day. And, in true New Year's resolution forms, I did either none of or some of the above for a couple of weeks before my attentions focused onto something else more important like figuring out to destroy Crow's Feet or elongating my lashes.
While there was no shortage of ideas running through my head, there were also several moments in which celebrities (and psuedocelebrities) must have been doing the same thing! ("Same thing" meaning that that they did some rather defining things this year in the world of beauty as well.) Let's have a look at them, shall we? Side note: I'm counting down backwards because it's so much more fun than going forwards, right? hahaha



#10. The smokey eye made a big comeback! OK, it never really went away, but we saw several various forms of it, some beautiful and others half psychotic looking.



Here's an example of what I mean by half psychotic crazy looking (ahem Taylor Momsen)



And here's a beautiful, breath-taking example worn by the queen of smokey eye herself, Kim Kardashian.


#9. Bubble gum pink isn't just for your nails anymore.





No matter what the skin tone (or age!) celebs were seen all over the red carpet rocking this super cute shade. I personally hate the color pink, but I couldn't help but to get swept up into the trend myself.






And then Nicki Minaj launched her very own shade with MAC Cosmetics (Pink Friday anyone?) and it quickly became one of my fave shades of lipsticks. So fun!


#8. Rihanna stunned us all by dying her hair color this flaming shade of red...and then commenced to go bananas with hairstyles by changing it from semi-shaved short to straight up short to long to dark brown (huh?) and back to short and red again.




We can't forget about this classic photo below RiRi tweeted of herself after burning her forehead with a curling iron. I can't tell you the number of times that I've done the same smh....










#7. The fashion world was shocked to see that GASP Naomi Campbell really is bald!





OH and Britney Spears still is, too. Weave can't always work wonders, ya know...





#6. While most of still aren't sure why Ke$ha thinks it's ok to strut around wearing blue makeup she apparently doesn't really care what others think. (I know this for a fact because she said so herself at a concert I attended of hers once.) From blue eye makeup to blue lips, this quickly became her signature shade (although I don't think it ever really caught on with the rest of the world, but that's ok, I guess).





#5. It seems as if 2010 was the official year to launch a celebrity fragrance which kind of either really got you excited or made you think this must be the latest ploy in celeb land to get people to pay attention to you.



Jennifer Aniston named hers Lolavie and during interviews wouldn't even reveal the true meaning of the name! If this was an attempt of hers to be secretive and confuse the population into thinking that she actually had depth, then it failed miserably. Two seconds later, she re-named it with her name (shocking!) and the rest goes into "Whatever happened to that fragrance?" history.



Eva Longoria somehow even came up with her own signature scent (although she's really "allergic" to most perfumes) promising that all women everywhere could wear hers (regardless of allergies). Serious side eye.


No matter what the gimmick, no one could beat out the sales or generate as much buzz as Beyonce did with her first fragrance, Heat. (She's got a second one called Heat Rush slated to make its debut by February 2011.)





Also, we can't forget about Mary J. Blige (who hooked up with Carol's Daughter) to launch her scent, My Life, which went on to sell the most bottles of fragrance in history on live television when she hit the HSN airwaves. (It made my 2010 to be there to witness all of this greatness!)



And yeah, Katy Perry launched a pretty delicious smelling one called Purr, but I'm looking forward to smelling what Lady Gaga is cooking up in the kitchen with Coty. (Although we may be waiting a while on it because rumor has it that it won't hit shelves until Spring 2012..sigh.)





#4. High tower hair! Some of it looked really good. Exhibit A: this picture of Janet Jackson from the Met Gala...



And some of it looked...well, um....kind of interesting (ahem Jennifer Lopez and Alicia Keys)








#3. Actress Emma Watson officially wrapped up filming the Harry Potter flicks and then cut off all of her hair! It could have very easily turned into a crazy moment (a-la that time Britney Spears shaved her head..yikes!) but instead turned out looking very GLAM indeed!



#2. I know, I know, I already mentioned her above (ahem, Kim Kardashian) but you can't talk about big beauty moments and not mention the Kardashian Clan. In one year alone, they managed to single-handedly dominate the beauty scene (Kim even presented at the CEW Beauty Awards!) and I used every single product. From the Kim Kardashian fragrance...



to the self-tanner....



yes, Glamazons, I did it all and can't wait to see what the Kardashian clan comes up with next! Rumor has it that they're working a complete "beauty line" but don't know whether that includes just cosmetics, skincare, hair or all of the above. (And no, I'm not a STAN...I just happen to really like their products, ok?!) I'm super interested in finding out exactly how much $$ these gals managed to rack in with all these beauty deals..hmmm.....


#1. Lady Gaga showed up at the 2010 MTV VMA's rocking a piece of red raw meat on her head that perfectly matched her red lipstick! While she definitely wins for the most interesting beauty looks of the year, this one takes the cake. I remember seeing it on TV and my jaw actually dropping hahaha.





Now that you know my most memorable beauty moments of the year, it's only fair for you to share yours below in the comments section!

MAC Signs Lady Gaga As Spokeswoman For Viva Glam Campaign (Again!)

As the old saying goes, if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it!
MAC Cosmetics continues their relationship with our fave pop singer Lady Gaga by signing her on for another year as a Viva Glam spokeswoman. The first Gaga/MAC collabo began with her and singer Cyndi Lauper and featured light pink and coral lipsticks. The brand later launched matching Lipglasses (love my Cyndi shade!) and managed to collectively raise over $32 million for the MAC AIDS Fund cementing it in Viva Glam history as the most lucrative the campaign has ever seen.
For the 2011 campaign, we'll see Gaga in her very own Viva Glam campaign. Above is a sneak peek at one of her ads in which I personally think she looks gorge! Love the all the pearls and diamonds she's holding and the ethereal light sorrounding her. Hmmm...I wonder if this means the matching lipstick shade will be a natural, pearlescent shade like the one she's sporting?


What do you think of Gaga's look in the ad, Glamazons? And are you equally as excited as I am to get your hands on the new lip shade?!

Lady Gaga, Janet Jackson, Kim Kardashian, Heidi Klum and More Dress up for Halloween

Hey Glamazons!

I hope you all enjoyed your Halloween weekend. I sure did. Halloween might be one of my favorite holidays of the year because I live for playing dress up. I even had two costumes this year (yes, festive is my middle name!) but more on that later.

Several celebrities got into the Halloween spirit this year as well from Rihanna who tweeted herself getting cozy with a skull above, to Lady Gaga who dressed up as Cruella Devil to Kim Kardashian who made a beautiful little Red Riding Hood. Scroll down for our favorites and tell us who you think had the best costume!

And remember to send your costume to us at theglamazonsblog@gmail.com (also you can hit us via Facebook and Twitter) for a chance to be featured on the blog.






 




Ciara dressed up as Storm from X-Men designed by Joseph Altuzarra and I have to say she looked BEYOND fab! So much so I might be stealing that costume for next year. Love the black catsuit and color contacts, but a white wig and cape would have made it even hotter!












 Every year Heidi Klum outdoes herself and this year is no exception. She dressed up as a Transformer with fellow robot, husband Seal. The stilts, red hair, purple glitter body paint and fab silver hardware details are so major! Everyone from Marc Jacobs to Joe Zee tweeted their praises.







After tweeting pictures of herself in four costumes (all below), Kim Kardashian stepped out to Heidi Klum's annual costume party at Lavo in a red riding hood costume. Love her subtle makeup and killer red shoes. 
 







Oh, and publicist and BFF, Jonathan Cheban was her Big Bad Wolf. 




 


Kim tweeted pics of herself in four costumes before choosing Little Red Riding hood. The pirate was my favorite, but sister Kourtney rocked that look instead with Mason in tow. Cute!









When it comes to theatrical stars like Lady Gaga, one has to wonder: what does she dress up as for Halloween? I mean, everyday they're a walking Halloween costume, right? Well, we have our answer: Cruella De Vil.





  


Gaga's costume really just consisted of a dalmatian coat, black briefs and red pumps. Apparently, she was surrounded by an entourage of women dressed up as her dalmatians as well.









For Colored Girls star, Janet Jackson showed up at the Lanvin party dressed up as a gangster. Fierce! A mustache, fedora, cigar and gorge feathered heels completed the look. Didn't she nail it?










Who was your favorite out of our Top picks? And here are some other celeb costumes that wowed us this year:









Ellen Degeneres as Snooki's poof! Dying at the Cabbage Patch doll on the floor




 




John Legend as Anthony and girlfriend Christine Teigen as Cleopatra




 




Gwen Stefani made my day with her cow print pants!


 
 




Snooki dressed up as a pickle. Umm, okay.









Lala Vasquez made an adorable sailor




Kisses,


Coutura
