ITTY BITTY BITS: MJ/Ed Hardy clothing line reveale
*The Ed Hardy clothing line that was being developed by Michael Jackson and Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier was revealed on NBC's
*As previously reported, Michael Jackson will be laid to rest on
what would have been his 51st birthday. The family followed up
patriarch Joe Jackson's unofficial announcement to the New York Daily
News with a statement saying the King of Pop will be buried at Holly
Terrace in the Grand Mausoleum at Glendale Forest Lawn Memorial Park on
Saturday, August 29 at 10 a.m. The ceremony will be limited to family
and close friends.
"Today" show Tuesday. With over 100 designs already approved by
Michael, the collection was set to include a rhinestone glove and
socks, a red jacket, Ed Hardy shirts, a belt and umbrellas, according to the
report on "Today." Audigier now hopes to work with Michael Jackson’s
estate to release the line, but nothing is finalized.
*Director Gina Prince Bythewood is among the list of
finalists for the 2009 Humanitas prizes, which recognizes work that
explores the human condition and affirms human dignity. She received a
feature-film nomination for "The Secret Life of Bees" and will face
director John Patrick Shanley ("Doubt") in the category. Two writers
from Keke Palmer's Nickelodeon series "True Jackson, VP" -- Andy Gordon
and Dan Kopelman -- joined Arika Lisanne Mittman ("South of Nowhere")
in the children's live-action category.

Ed Hardy Designer Christian Audigier Talks Jon Gos
Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier knew Michael Jackson. He partied with Michael Jackson. And Jon Gosselin is no Michael Jackson.
At least not when it comes to people he had plans to collaborate with on potential
Ed Hardy clothing lines. (Among any number of other distinctions.)
Despite reports to the contrary, spurred on by an Audigier-funded trip
to St.-Tropez for Gosselin and girlfriend Hailey Glassman, the T-shirt
purveyor tells E! News that the only celebrity he ever discussed going
into business with was the King of Pop.
"I invited him to my birthday," Audigier says of Jackson. "And he
showed up. It was his last public appearance. He was testing [the
public mood about him] at my party. So we became friends. He told me
one day he would like to collaborate with me on a collection."
A binding contract if ever there was one. Too bad no such deal ever existed with The Lying Channel's No. 1 dad.
"I never said I was going to do a line with Jon Gosselin. I don't want to do a line with Jon Gosselin."
Well, not this week, anyway...
"Jon is going to give me a visit in Las Vegas because there is a trade show, Magic,"
Christian Audigier
says, adding that he was open to the idea of a collaboration, but not
on a much-rumored children's line, as he doesn't "want to use their
kids to wear my clothes."
"He is going to come...a week from today, and he is going to become more familiar with the product."
And, we presume, pose for a photo or two along the way.
But their frequent conversations have never quite crossed over from personal to professional.
"He calls me every two days to see what is going on. He is talking about his kids a lot."
As for other jobs Gosselin doesn't have but seems to think he does:
Audigier says that, despite appearances, the reality dad is not a paid
spokesman for his
Ed Hardy clothing
brand. (Though he has been the recipient of a seemingly endless gift
box and is, like it or not, the brand's unofficial ambassador.)
He may soon go pro with his shilling, however, and become a spokesman for another Ed Hardy offshoot. We think.
"He is really into bikes, so he want to do something around bikes so he can be the spokesperson for one of my brands on bikes."
Now that that's all cleared up...
About the photo op that started it all, Audigier says he originally
flew Gosselin and Glassman to France earlier this summer simply because
"he was wearing a lot of Christian
Christian Audigier every day, so I said, 'I want to meet this guy.'"
"I just invite him because I see him on the Jon & Kate show asking
for job. So I was curious to see what he was asking people for which
kind of job."
Apparently, Audigier's viewing of Jon & Kate Plus 8 was a
one-time-only deal, as evidenced by his bafflement over Gosselin's
plus-one for the trip.
Upon accepting Audigier's invitation, the reality dad took it upon himself to request a second ticket.
"He told me he was coming with his stylist. It appeared his stylist was
Hailey. A week after, I discovered those two guys were together. I
didn't even know that Jon and Kate were not together."
Well, we knew there had to be someone.

Is McSteamy's Naked Tape Partner Pulling a Jon Gos
First Jon Gosselin, now Kari Ann Peniche.
Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier certainly seems to be surrounding himself with the cream of the crap.
Uh, crop. We meant crop.
Peniche, the clothes-averse costar of Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart,
made her way, as all good tabloid targets do, over to Audigier's
studios yesterday, and while she left with the impression that she
landed herself a design gig, she may be in for a rude awakening when
she turns up for orientation at
Ed Hardy HQ tomorrow morning.
A source close to
Christian Audigier denied reports of any collaboration with Peniche, a budding swimwear designer, saying "those are just rumors."
Now if only we could track down where they first started…oh, that's right.
"I'm gonna be working on a bikini line," Peniche told paparazzi yesterday. "I start on Friday."
Yeah, that's probably what Gosselin thought, too.

Whatever Happened To Ed Hardy
Totally unexpected, it contained the first Ed Hardy
helmet I'd ever seen, with a bitchin' flaming-tiger graphic on each
side. It wasn't until I spun it around to the front that I got
indignant. "By Christian Audigier," it read in large letters below the
Ed Hardy logo. What the fcuk?! (Cue cryptic design house reference.)
Why would a biker want some French fashion designer's name scrawled
across his forehead? How do you say "douche" in French anyway? Oh wait,
that is a French word...
Ironically, not long thereafter the Ed Hardy folks paid a visit to
our offices to show us their new line of motorcycle
accessories--helmets, jackets, gloves, boots, billet parts, graphics,
tie-downs, the works--all embossed with the work of famed California
tattoo artist Don Ed Hardy. They then bussed us cross-town to their
headquarters, where we had a meet-and-greet with Christian Audigier himself.
Their offices were the kind of creative space I wish we had here at
the magazine, and the boss' digs ... let's just say the word "opulent"
doesn't do them justice. Everything was painted white except the walls,
covered in alligator skin. And everywhere you looked were vintage and
custom motorcycles, most with the Christian Audigier logo painted on
their gas tanks. As one attendee put it, "Clearly the guy doesn't have
any self-esteem issues."
Be that as it may, it turns out the guy is a bike guy. "I grew up in
France, so of course I rode motorcycles as transportation," Audigier
reveals. And now, on the heels of his success hawking Von Dutch and Ed
HardyEd Hardy shirts--and,
coming soon, Evel Knievel!--he's delved into the bike business,
offering the aforementioned gear and partnering with various bike
builders. First came a Yamaha quad, then a Suzuki Hayabusa, and now the
Ducati Monster shown here, offered as part of a 25-unit run of customs
that will also include Hypermotards, Streetfighters and 1198s. Maybe
the guy's not a douche after all?As for the real Don Ed Hardy, like the
Dread Pirate Roberts he's been retired for years, overseeing and
mentoring the artists at his San Francisco studio, Tattoo City. Von
Dutch wasn't as fortunate: He died of a stomach abscess caused by
alcoholism in 1992.

The names of the Perfumers In Edhardy
We mentioned recently that the new JY Jewels collection had been
launched. Well, here is one item from the collection you won't want to
miss.
This 'French Lace Silver Rose Cuff' is delicately detailed and wonderfully unique. Visit JYJewels.com.
Fashion designer John Galliano's company was ordered to pay 200,000 euros in damages to renowned U.S. photographer
William Klein for unauthorized use of his atmospheric imagery in an advertising campaign.
The photographer,Coach Shoes, who lives in France said he was "furious" at Christian Audigier's use of some of his half-painted photographs of street scenes in advertisements in several fashion magazines.
Klein's
giant versions of contact sheets showing a series of photographs,
painted over in colored enamel to highlight particular images,
were a popular feature of a recent exhibition at the Pompidou Centre in Paris.
The
Chanel people chafe when it’s mentioned, but I believe Poiret indeed
preceded Coco Chanel by a decade as the first fashion designer to
launch a fragrance.
When Poiret hung up his uniform after World War I, he found Ed Hardy
— then in competition with the clean-lined, sporty new designers like
Chanel — almost bankrupt. He was in debt, his business partners
abandoned him.
The house closed in 1929. Poiret died in poverty.
In the late 20th century, a woman named Marie-Helène Rogeon became interested in reviving Poiret’s scents.
Rogeon’s grandparents and great-grandparents had been fillers for
Poiret, mixing his formulae in alcohol and packaging the perfumes, of
which Poiret had created 50.
None of the formulae had
survived, nor the names of the perfumers, but Rogeon found a text that
described the scent of La Rose de Rosine.
Rogeon went to the
perfumer Fran?ois Robert, son of the great perfumer Guy Robert and a
professor at ISIPCA, the Cambridge of perfume schools.
