Another red check for the economical trend fashion store, H&M. While some shoppers may feel smug that they are buying “organic cotton” clothing, it’s just not as green as they thought.

Apparently some of the cotton they labeled “certified organic” was contaminated with genetically modified cotton from India, the German Financial Times discovered after independent testing. Authorities in India say the fraud is occurring on a “gigantic scale,” and blame organic-certification agencies.

Um, OOPS! If you are going to say you have organic cotton in your clothing, it might behoove you to be sure the cotton is indeed, organic. I’m just sayin’.
This comes on the heels of the story that broke about the retailer shedding and discarding clothing from their stores.

Heading straight to the top, the Kardashian sisters, Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney have skipped the whole nameless designer stage. Their line for Bebe will debut in the tents of New York fashion week.

The Kardashian-bebe show will be the kick-off show on Tuesday, February 16 for STYLE360, a 2-day fashion event that will include 10 runway shows from emerging or independent designers.

I hope it’s something interesting.

How much input do you think the threesome had in the designs and construction of the line?

So, the other night, I was sitting at home watching the Hope for Haiti Telethon, and up pops Brad Pitt.  OK whatever.  I mean one of his BFFs, George Clooney DID organize the whole thing so big deal right?   So, after two hours of music and disaster, it was over.

One of the questions I kept thinking was, “Where was Angelina?   I mean, she does a lot of work with Wyclef Jean, and his organization that donates to Haiti.  HECK, she pimped out her pregnant belly for Yele!

So why wasn’t AJ there to support her friend?  The official word was the she was in NYC getting ready for a photo shoot at Vanity Fair (but there were performances from NYC and London, too, hmm interesting).  BUT!  Vanity Fair is saying that wasn’t true.

Though some reports claim she was in New York City shooting an upcoming Vanity Fair cover, a magazine rep tells Us: “The reports from this weekend are incorrect.”

So what’s the deal?   What was she up to?

What’s the latest casting news in two of TV’s biggest dramas?   Mad Men‘s Sam Page, is joining the ranks of Desperate Housewives.

For those of you who can’t quite place who Sam Page is, he plays the inept, manipulative doctor married to red haired secretary Joan (Christina Hendricks).  Yup, the one who signed up for the Army.

So Page will play a young man obsessed with Bree (hmmm another red head).

The actor, who plays the wayward husband of Christina Hendricks’ Joan on Mad Men, is joining Desperate Housewives for a multi-episode arc as Jeremy, a well-trained cook who idolizes Bree (Marcia Cross) and her old-fashioned values.

He should start showing up on Wisteria Lane in February.

Then he will be joining ABC Family’s Greek. Good for him!   I guess getting hit in the head with a vase did him some good

News is that the five year relationship between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie is OVER!

The twosome who have six children together have drawn up the papers, and it’s official. Though, reportedly never married, Pitt and Jolie were said to have visited a divorce lawyer earlier this month.

A source told the News of the World: “The document was signed in early January. Both Brad and Angelina had signed it.
“The contract was like a tailor-made version of a pre-nuptial agreement except for an unmarried couple’s split.
“It seemed clear they want the world to know they’ll both play a part in the upbringing of the children.
“But Angelina will actually be the one who lives with them full-time.”

They go on to say that there is no set date for when the breakup has/will have taken place.

Our source added: “There’s no date for when the contract would come into effect.

“But the paperwork is already organised for a break- up – and for it to be as unmessy for them as possible. It is clear it’s a case of when they break up rather than if.”

They will also keep what each made, about $100 MILLION dollars.
