Miley’s Naked Storm

Ah Miley. Once so young, sweet and innocent now quite famous for twerking, showing her tongue more than is strictly necessary and well for being naked in her new video.

The opening 30 seconds of ‘Wrecking Ball’ is a shot focusing purely on her face; skin flawless, lips stained a deep red and eyelashes coated with a hint of mascara. In other words, she doesn’t look like the car crash we have been lead to believe in the papers. In actual fact, she looks, dare I say it, ‘sweet’.

This doesn’t really last with the video taking a different turn, or as some of the press are describing it, descending into ‘soft porn’ territory pretty quickly. She rides a wrecking ball naked, licks a hammer somewhat suggestively and spends the rest of her time gyrating against something.

However shocking though, the thing is I like the new Miley. She’s 20, she is going to experiment, she is going to flash the flesh and she is going to make people sit up and take notice of her no matter what.

She is no longer the preteen Disney queen (see what I did there with the rhyming?!) she’s her own woman and clearly has a smart business head on her- most viewed clip in 24 hours ever? She’s not stupid; she knows stripping off equal’s tonnes of hits and more than likely another UK number 1.

I think her new style is edgy, cool and above all something she has had a say in. You get the opinion she was manufactured for most of her life and wasn’t able to get tattoos, piercings, wear a crop top or flesh coloured latex, but now, well the world is her oyster.

The naked video is not to my taste and I’m sure plenty of people will criticise her for it when she is supposedly a ‘role model’ still, but hey, she’s got people talking and she has certainly convinced me of one thing…. white nail varnish is hot!

VMAs Fashion Gossip!

Lady Gaga wows in meat dress on stage at VMAs
After last year’s antics at the VMAs (you know Kanye West gate crashing Taylor Swift’s speech, Lil Mama climbing the stage while Alicia Keys performed) who would of thought this year could top it?!

As usual, Lady Gaga was the primary source of entertainment in her many outfits- the most shocking of all being a dress made entirely of meat.

Looking like Ross Noble’s stand-up incarnation had come to life, Gaga teamed her meaty dress with some furry boots and mismatched fishnet tights.

Now if she hadn’t already done the whole meat bikini thing last week for Vogue Japan it may have had more of an impact.

That said she did totally wow in a regal Alexander McQueen gown, complete with headdress and 12inch platforms, which drew gasps from the audience as she arrived with her entourage.

And when she picked up her award for Best Pop Video award she pulled out all the stops in stunning black leather Armani Prive gown.

In other fashion news, Katy Perry decided to pay homage to her hubby-to-be Russell Brand, by painting him on her nails. Bless!

Others who impressed me on the night was the stunning Florence Welch. Now, this lady is all about the quirky but last night she looked like she belonged at the Oscars.

A sweeping gold Jewel-encrusted mermaid gown totally stole the show, even though she was competing with the likes of Gaga and Perry. Way to fly the flag for the Brits Flo!
