ZOE KRAVITZ AT FASHION WEEK + PCD ON NEW VIDEO SET
Those black Stella McCartney wedge ankle boots stood out front row thanks to fashionista Zoe Kravitz. The offspring of Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Benet was seen soaking up the Spring 2009 collection at the Stella McCartney show during Paris Fashion Week. Zoe was also spotted at the Chanel fashion show rocking her chic boho look in another fly pair of Chanel boots.

Mary Kate Olsen wore the wedge pumps style for her cover appearance on Elle UK magazine - the July 2008 edition. Notice how the sole of MK and Zoe's are quite similar? (Fashionistas think alike, huh?)

The Pussycat Dolls filmed a music video for their third single, "I Hate This Part" off their current sophomore disc, "Doll Domination." (What happened to their video with Missy??!) Check out the pop group behind the scenes of the video shoot. In the video, the PCD girls celebrated Melody Thornton's birthday and Nicole Scherzinger talked about her favorite song off the album.

FASHION HOOPLA WITH ZOE KRAVITZ
Zoe Kravitz has a distinct fondness for this snakeskin Gucci oversized clutch. Zoe's favorite clutch can be seen via the Gucci Spring/Summer 2008 ready to wear collection. Check out Zoe rocking her favorite clutch three times on the red carpet...

Also a celebrity favorite from Gucci Spring/Summer 2008 collection is the Gucci Sevigny heels that Ashanti and Rosci has famously taken a fierce fashion obsession for. In related news, Kanye West added a blog post about fashion-forward Zoe which you can check out here.

HOOPLA FROM LAX TO PHARRELL
Friendly duo Chris Brown and Rihanna were spotted holding hands as they made their way through LAX. The twosome made their relationship public when they were caught sitting together at the 2008 MTV Movie Awards.

Rihanna and Chris Brown at LAX


As mentioned yesterday, Janet Jackson visited BET's "106 & Park" to announced the tour dates for her upcoming "Rock Witchu" tour. Terrence J and Rosci got Janet to talk briefly about her man JD but she got all shy and coy. Too cute...



Usher hit up another Summer Concert Series event but this time it was for "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" where he performed his hit, "Love In This Club". Usher recently made a comment about his ex, Chilli in a new interview with UK-based urban publication RWD magazine...



RWD: Chilli was quoted as saying you were the one she ‘truly did love. I’m not in love with him anymore, but I can’t say I don’t love him.’ Do you think it’s appropriate for her to make these comments considering you’re married with a child?

Usher: I mean, I think it’s a little unrealistic, I’m married (laughs), I’m not a boy. It’s been three years past, you know? But we all have unrealistic goals too. Like shoot, I will always forever love Katie Holmes and Halle Berry. I don’t feel anyway about it. It does appear maybe to be a plug for something. She got a record coming or something?


Can Usher and Chilli simply avoid talking about one another just for the sake of promoting their various projects?!? Just let it ride...

Melanie Brown promoted her new spokesmodel gig for "Ultimo" lingerie and her 33rd birthday recenty at Debenhams at the U.K.. At least Mel B has move on from promoting her own fashion line, Catty Couture...


Mel B for Ultimo


Robin Thicke's better half Paula Patton (in Michael Kors) and model Chanel Iman were seen at the 2008 CDFA Fashion Awards and you can check out other attendees in this earlier post...


paula patton and chanel iman


M.I.A and Amerie both went fashion-forward and funky at the Target/Converse-hosted MTV Movie Award after party. Amerie just confirmed that she has began working on a follow-up to her last record, "Because I Love It". M.I.A just announced her engagement and the guy's not Kanye West.


Amerie and M.I.A


Zoe Kravitz, who "Essence" magazine named a style icon back in March, attended photographer Ricky Powell's "Illy Funksters" exhibition opening in New York City. (I'm digging that Gucci tote she has on.)

Pharrell Williams and his oversized purple Hermes Birkin bag are on the cover of "Paper" magazine.

SPOTTED HOOPLA AROUND THE RED CARPET
Miss Badu in Detriot


Erykah Badu performed with The Roots at the Fox Theater in Detroit, Michigan. Check out those Christian Louboutin's - FIERCE!

IMAN AND DAVID BOWIE


Iman (in a red D&G gown) pose with her husband David Bowie at the Costume Institute Gala at the MET last night. "People" magazine honored Iman for her ageless beauty in their 100 Most Beautiful List.

ZOE KRAVITZ WITH IN A MINT SUEDE DRESS

Also at the fashion-forward event was Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet's daughter Zoe Kravitz. And I can't help but notice Janet Jackson and her fab Versace dress out in the background. I do love Zoe's mint green suede dress...and her role in Jay-Z's "I Know" music video.

FERGIE IN CK


Fergie (who took a brief from recording her sophomore solo effort with Polow Da Don in ATL) was seen at the MET in a black Calvin Klein number. On the red carpet Fergie pose with Hilary Duff (in Elie Saab) and Molly Simms (in Versace).

eVA mENDES IN CK


Eva Mendes (the new face of Calvin Klein) wore a light blue look from CK (Duh!) and Sergio Rossi heels. Eva pose with a CK-wearing Liv Tyler at the event. CK was on a roll at the event, huh?

One-time divas

Patti LaBelle, Chaka Khan, Diana Ross, and Gladys Knight all had top billing at "Divas With Heart" Benefit Concert over at Radio City Music Hall. You simply gotta love these one-name only divas!

HOOPLA FROM DC TO NYC
JOHN LEGEND AND KERRY WASHINGTON

John Legend and Kerry Washington incorporated their celebrity platform at the House Appropriations hearing on "Funding for the Arts" in Washington, D.C. If you're loving Kerry's yummy yellow tote, grab the same TOD'S Restyled D-Bag Media in a different color here.

LEONA LEWIS WITH CLIVE DAVIS


UK singer Leona Lewis celebrated her 23rd birthday at the River Cafe in Brooklyn with her J Record boss Clive Davis. Thanks to her ballad, "Bleeding Love" Leona made history by being first UK artist to top the Billboard 100 in 21 years. Speaking of which, Leona will perform her hit ballad on the May 13th taping of "Dancing With The Stars".


Over at the Soho Grand Penthouse, Zoe Kravitz and her boyfriend Ben Foster took in a screening of "My Blueberry Nights". Zoe (who recently appeared in Jay-Z's "I Know" music video) truly captured the eccentric style of her parents Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet, huh?
