I trembled before her, crown jewel of the Club Kids who ruled Manhattan nights in the early ’90s. I told her the name I answered to at the time, a name I would soon revise to sound sweeter, more potable. “I mean, you’re the most famous transsexual in the world.” (That’s what she called herself.) I’d ply the dolls with drinks, then probe them about hormone replacement therapy (to my surprise, they’d indulge me). In 2014, I’d medically transition, which I might not have done so soon — or at all — had I never met these women in nightclubs.

Kylie Jenner is a known favorite, too, choosing a Spring-Summer 2023 look to wear during Paris Fashion Week last September; as well as posing in custom pieces for her 399 million Instagram followers. It’s as simple as that,” Findikoglu told CNN during an interview outside her east London studio on the first day of London fashion week. While 31-year-old American designer Michael Halpern — who has received two British Fashion Awards in his career — announced just last week that not only would his label be skipping London Fashion Week, but that it plans to close for good. Findikoglu believes more financial help should be available to all brands on the London fashion week schedule.

☆ Kuwait and Lebanon Look to Ban ‘Barbie’ for Moral Reasons

Although the “Barbie” movie is a billion-dollar global hit, officials in Lebanon and Kuwait moved on Wednesday to ban the film, saying its content contradicts the conservative values of their countries. Unlike other movies that have been banned in the Middle East, “Barbie” does not feature any scenes that overtly portray same-sex relationships. The cast does feature L.G.B.T.Q. A Kuwaiti committee on cinematic censorship banned both “Barbie” and the horror film “Talk to Me” this week. Al-Subei’e told the news agency that foreign movies that run counter to Kuwait’s public ethics will often have scenes censored, but that movies that carry “alien concepts, message or unacceptable behavior” are fully banned.

☆ Ryan Gosling has hilarious reply to those saying he's 'too old' to play Ken in 'Barbie' movie
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-31 | by ( Alli Rosenbloom | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Ryan Gosling channeled his “Ken-ergy” to defend himself against those who think he’s “too old” to play doll Ken in the new “Barbie” movie. The origin of this silliness began back in April when the first “Barbie” movie trailer was released and a debate on social media ensued, with some users voicing their opinion that the 42-year-old actor appeared too “grown up” to play Ken. “If people don’t want to play with my Ken, there are many other Kens to play with,” Gosling said in a new GQ interview published on Wednesday in response to those skeptics. You never cared,” he said, adding that “if you ever really cared about Ken, you would know that nobody cared about Ken. So your hypocrisy is exposed.”(From left) Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie in 'Barbie.'
