HARRY STYLES KEEPS CUSTOM PERFORMANCE COSTUMES IN ‘FROZEN VAULT’; HIS STALKER ARRESTED – (10/22/2019)

Harry Styles goes to great lengths to protect his one-of-a-kind outfits.

During an interview with British GQ, one of the 25-year-old singer’s designers, Harris Reed – who created the look in the “Lights Up” music video, revealed that Harry keeps Harris’ “one-off” designs, among others, in a cryogenic closet with 24-hour surveillance somewhere in England.

“I can’t say where it is located, but everything goes to an archive,” Harris shared with the magazine. “It’s basically like a giant refrigerator – a frozen vault…The clothes all have 24 hours surveillance, which you can look at via an iPad, specifically done for his outfits, and they have all been cryogenically frozen in time to preserve them.”

Harry wore several outfits designed by Harris on his first solo tour, and the singer reassured him that a lot of the custom pieces are being held in this frozen closet. Harris said it was surreal.

Meanwhile, a 26-year-old homeless man has been convicted of stalking Styles outside his London home. Pablo Tarazaga-Orero avoided jail time but has been banned from going near Harry, his home or business addresses, including anywhere where he is performing. He is also banned from posting about the singer on social media and must complete a 12-month community order and a 30-day rehab program.

During the trial, Harry said he first encountered Tarazaga-Orero sleeping outdoors in his north London neighborhood, and offered him money for food or a hotel. Harry bought Orero food the following day, but said he then stopped interacting with him after that because his “odd” behavior made him feel “a little uneasy.” After that, Harry said he began to see Orero almost every day. He eventually started following Harry, leaving the singer feeling “scared” and “very uncomfortable.”

The defendant told the court he never intended to stalk Harry but “just wanted the money he offered me.” He also claimed Harry had propositioned him.

MIKE POSNER COMPLETES HIS WALK ACROSS AMERICA AFTER SIX MONTHS AND A SNAKE BITE – (10/22/2019)

Mike Posner has just crossed the entire United States, coast to coast – on foot.

The singer-songwriter trekked 2,851 miles over the course of six months, starting in Asbury Park, New Jersey, on April 15th and ending in Venice Beach, California, on Friday.

“My name is Mike Posner and I walked across America,” Posner said on Twitter. “Keep Going.” Posner celebrated the end of his journey by jumping into the Pacific Ocean and enjoying a well-deserved massage on the beach.

“I don’t even know what this experience means in the context of my life yet,” Posner said in a Facebook post near the end of his journey. “I do know that I am not the same person I was when I started. I’m harder. I’m more authentic. I’m more real. I’m more myself. That’s the only trophy I need.”

On his website, Posner said the journey had a three-part mission: to “enjoy my life and help others enjoy theirs,” “be as authentic to other people as possible,” and “help others to experience transcendence.” He also aimed to spend more time listening to people and invited others to participate – even for just a mile or two.

Not even a nasty rattlesnake bite could keep Posner from completing his mission. In August, Posner had to be airlifted to a Colorado hospital after being bitten by a rattlesnake. It took several weeks of rehabilitation before he could continue his journey.

When he wasn’t walking, he meditated and did a lot of yoga. Posner documented the experience on social media.

On October 9th, Posner released a 16-track mixtape titled Keep Going, his mantra during the journey, The tape features other artists, including Wiz Khalifa, Ty Dolla $ign and Logic.

“I created this project, these songs and these affirmations to remind myself who I am when things get hard. I hope they can provide you the same strength,” he said at the beginning of the album.

INSIDE JENNIFER LAWRENCE’S LUXE WEDDING – (10/22/2019)

X-Men star Jennifer Lawrence married fiancé Cooke Maroney, 34, in a fairytale wedding this weekend at the luxe Belcourt of Newport estate in Newport, Rhode Island. Details of the 29-year-old Oscar-winner’s wedding are starting to emerge.

THE BASICS

The wedding included 150 guests, who toasted the happy couple and dining on a menu with a variety of hors d’oeuvres and multiple desserts, including s’mores.

THE VENUE

The home was designed by American architect Richard Morris Hunt in 1894, and was inspired by Louis XIII’s hunting lodge at Versailles. 

THE GUESTS

The guest list included Adele, Amy Schumer, Sienna Miller, Kris Jenner, Emma Stone and Ashley Olsen.

THE PARTY 

The afterparty got going around 12:30 am, with Boston’s Baddest Food Truck and Maine-ly Lobstah providing snacks from their food trucks. 

“It was an all-night party. Jen and Cooke where the last people to leave at 5:30 a.m.,” a source tells People. “They waited until all the guests were gone so they could personally say goodbye. When they left, Jen looked happy, but also a bit tired. She also looked stunning in a jeweled dress.”

THE DRESS(ES)

Lawrence wore a dress by Dior, and Page Six reports that she set aside a room just for the dress. 

“The Dior design team flew in directly from Paris the day before J.Law tied the knot, and the gown had a private guest room booked for safekeeping at Newport’s historic Hotel Viking for the evening,” a source told Page Six Style.

The outfits selected by her well-heeled guests were equally delightful. Row founder Olsen donned a dramatic Marc Jacobs tulle gown and Miller wore a red off-the-shoulder Johanna Ortiz dress with balloon sleeves and a playful trumpet hemline.

LADY GAGA ‘GONNA BE OK’ AFTER STAGE FALL – (10/21/2019)

Lady Gaga is on the mend after a fall during a show last week.

“When they have to X-Ray almost your entire body…Just Dance. Gonna be ok,” the 33-year-old singer tweeted Friday, alongside an image of her making the “OK” sign with her fingers.

A concertgoer Gaga invited on stage Thursday night in Las Vegas was holding her in his arms and lost his footing, dropping her onto her back into the audience below. Gaga returned to the stage and finished the performance, reassuring the fan who dropped her that he didn’t do anything wrong and she wasn’t mad at him.

“We f***ing love each other so much we fell off the damn stage,” she told the crowd. “We fell into each other’s arms, Jack! We’re like Rose and Jack from the Titanic!” She got checked out by doctors after the show to make sure no bones were broken.

On Instagram, Gaga posted photos of her post-show routine, which includes “ice bath for 5-10 min, hot bath for 20, then compression suit packed with ice packs for 20.”

Gaga’s residency shows continue at the Park Theater at Park MGM through November 9th; she’ll also perform December 28th, 30th and 31st.

Meanwhile, Lady Gaga confirmed her relationship status in an Instagram Story on Friday. “An about to be married woman and me, a single lady. Also thanks @hauslabs for the makeup,” she captioned a selfie with her friend Sarah Nicole Tanno at her bachelorette party. Gaga was spotted kissing sound engineer Dan Horton back in July while at brunch in Studio City, California. She mostly kept the relationship private, although she did showcase a candlelit dinner with Dan back in September on her Instagram Story. They were also seen in attendance at a The Cure and The Pixies concert together.

JENNIFER LAWRENCE MARRIES COOKE MARONEY IN RHODE ISLAND – (10/21/2019)

Please Note: This story uses quotes from the Naked With Catt Sadler podcast.

Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney celebrated their love in front of friends and family over the weekend in Rhode Island. The 29-year-old Oscar-winner married the 34-year-old art dealer at a wedding at the luxe Belcourt of Newport, a mansion designed in 1894 by celebrated architect Richard Morris Hunt. The so-called “castle” is rumored to be haunted.

The stunning estate was inspired by Louis XIII’s hunting lodge at Versailles. Carolyn Rafaelian, CEO of Alex and Ani, currently calls the manse home. The bride reportedly wore Dior. 

Among the friends in attendance were Emma Stone, Ashley Olsen, Adele, Amy Schumer and Kris Jenner. 

The party got started Friday, with a rollicking clambake rehearsal dinner under a white tent on Rose Island. Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Cameron Diaz, Sienna Miller and more were spotted. 

The pair have been linked since June of 2018. A rep confirmed to People that they were engaged in February after Lawrence was seen wearing a “massive ring” during dinner with Maroney at Raoul’s, an upscale French restaurant in New York City.

In June, Lawrence called Maroney “the greatest human being I’ve ever met.”

“He really is, and he gets better,” she added while speaking on Catt Sadler’s podcast Naked with Catt Sadler.

“I don’t know, I started with the basics,” the actress continued, when asked why she chose to marry him. “‘How do I feel? Is he nice? Is he kind?’ It’s just — this is the one, I know that sounds really stupid but he’s just, he’s — you know. He’s the greatest person I’ve ever met, so I feel very honored to become a Maroney.”

Jenner also claims that her 20-month-old baby Stormi has inherited her love of makeup. “Stormi is actually super into makeup right now. It’s amazing,” Jenner said in a video, adding that just like her mother, Stormi is all about lipstick.

Despite Stormi’s fascination with makeup, Jenner says she isn’t sure when she’ll allow her to wear makeup herself. 

“I haven’t even thought about when I’m gonna let Stormi wear makeup. I don’t know, I’m just going to see,” Jenner remarked.

“She might even not want to wear makeup. But honestly, how things are going, this girl is obsessed with makeup,” she added. “She begs me at this point.”

Stormi is in good company with her cousin, North, though mom Kim Kardashian made her take a break from makeup after her husband Kanye West objected.

Beyoncé has been crowned the second most beautiful woman in the world. According to The Grio via The Daily Mail, a “Golden Ratio of Beauty Phi” scientific modern mapping technique — which is designed to measure physical perfection, deemed supermodel Bella Hadid the most beautiful woman in the world. The scientific research done determines the “perfect face,” and Beyoncé came in second. 

The ratio determined that Hadid is 94.35% “accurate” on a scale up to 100%. Meanwhile, Bey received a score of 92.44%.

Dr. Julian De Silva, who runs the Centre For Advanced Facial Cosmetic And Plastic Surgery in London, explained, “Bella Hadid was the clear winner when all elements of the face were measured for physical perfection.” He continued, “Beyoncé ran her a close second, scoring the highest marks for the shape of her face (99.6%) and getting very high scores for her eyes, brow area and lips. These brand new computer mapping techniques allow us to solve some of the mysteries of what it is that makes someone physically beautiful and the technology is useful when planning patients’ surgery.” 

BET reports that the test measures “a subject’s eyes, nose, eyebrows, jaw, chin, and facial shape, as Hadid tested the highest, making her the ‘closest to the ancient Greeks’ idea of perfection.’”

Don’t get much bigger of a superhero than Jesus. He beats Superman and [Robert] Downey [Jr.] every time, so maybe Martin is bending on that territory.”

TAYLOR SWIFT’S STAPLES CENTER BANNER TO BE COVERED DURING L.A. KINGS GAMES – (10/14/2019)

Fans have requested that Taylor Swift‘s face banner be covered at the Staples Center during Los Angeles Kings games — and the team has obliged. According to The LA Times, the pro hockey team announced the news this past weekend and a marketing rep said that fans just weren’t happy about the banner. Michael Altieri said, “The connection to our fans is our highest priority and through our engagement they have made it clear that the banner shouldn’t be part of their Kings game experience.”

He added, “We didn’t see an issue in covering it for our games and in fact see it as an opportunity to show our fans that we hear them.”

In addition, apparently fans think that the banner is bad luck for the team and is the cause of them not winning a playoff series since it went up in 2015.

Meanwhile, The Lakers has revealed that they have no plans to cover Taylor’s banner and The Clippers have already been covering the banner during their games.

RIHANNA DEFENDS ‘VOGUE’ REPORTER WHO ‘WINGED’ THEIR INTERVIEW – (10/14/2019)

STATIONS: Please note the following story contains language that could be considered offensive to your audience.

Rihanna is defending the reporter who wrote the cover story for her interview with Vogue magazine. Apparently, the writer, Abby Aguirre, admitted that she was not prepared for the interview and had to wing it, which resulted in much backlash. Per Vogue magazine, “Normally I bring a list of questions, but I didn’t have time to prepare one, which I make a split-second decision to confess. ‘I’m winging it, so you have to help me,’ I say nervously. Rihanna flashes a grin that is somehow both reassuring and mischievous. ‘Aren’t we all?’ she says.”

She went on to explain that the interview had been pushed up on short notice and she didn’t have time to come up with a list of questions. Aguirre tweeted, “GUYS. I was driving to Trader Joe’s in sweatpants when I got the call and literally had to flip a b*tch. I research my subjects to death. *Especially* Rihanna. I appreciate the anger behind the reaction. But this is a misunderstanding, for which I take full responsibility. I had literally no notice. The point was to convey how nerve-wracking this was, given my deep, bordering-on-psychotic reverence for Rihanna.” 

Rihanna has since praised the reporter, calling her “gangster” for not needing to prepare for the interview. She told WWD, “No, no, no, no. That’s gangster. For you to get a call the day before being like, ‘Hey, Rihanna’s in L.A., you wanna do this?’ And show up on the dime and write an incredible article that I’m really proud of and enjoyed reading? She’s bada— for that.” 

Rih added, “If you don’t have to prepare, girl, you’re gangster.”
