I absolutely love Cortazar's designs! His clothes are sexy without being slutty and are simply gorgeous! I'd take a trip to Miami just to go to his boutique! Good for him.

Oh great, just what women the world over need — one more fagalicious style maven creating clothes to be worn by 12 year old boys — or at least women with the body of a 12 year old boy…..yawn. Will NO-ONE step up and design for actual WOMEN?

His designs are soooooo gaudy. He has no taste at all. He is like Roberto Cavalli….they make girls look like skanks. Ungaro is only using him as a marketing sham…."woooo…look at the 23 year old desginer"….he sucks. Plain and simple.

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
