OKP Style: Willow Smith Stars In A Stunning Photo Editorial For ‘CR Fashion Book’

Posted on:

[Photos by Lisa Eisner] Willow Smith isn’t all hooks and harmonies, folk. Today, CR Fashion Book (founded by former Vogue editor, writer and model Carine Roitfeld) unleashed a new photo editorial featuring the young heiress to Bel Air, who appears as the muse for acclaimed fashion photog Lisa Eisner. Already known for her keen sense of style (even in her adolescence,) the spread finds Smith draped in all kinds of lavish garb and working the lens like she’s been there before, all while ensconced gold plated and sequin blouses to peacock-print dresses to exquisite headdresses, probably better suited for an Algonquin high-priestess. And while it’s probably a nice…

Jay Z’s Bid To Acquire European Music Streaming Service ‘Aspiro’ Has Been Blocked

Posted on:

Early this year, we learned that Jay Z would be trying his hand at the music streaming industry with an 8-figure bid to buy European streaming service Aspiro. Well, it appears that not all business ventures come wrapped in ribbon. Today, it was reported by Swedish publication Dagens Industri that Hov’s $56,000,000 bid was rejected by the company’s minority stockholders after being unanimously excepted by the board. And while he’s not exactly out of the race to purchase the highly-coveted streaming service (with the terms of his offer ending next week on March 11th) the shareholders will continue to work out more favorable terms for themselves. Jay’s Brooklyn Nets venture didn’t …

Eric Andre Speaks Out In Defense Of Eddie Murphy & His ‘SNL 40′ Moment

Posted on:

By now we’ve all probably had the time to properly deal with Eddie Murphy‘s slightly underwhelming return to the SNL stage for their 40th anniversary festivities. And yeah, we were all hoping for the Gumby or James Brown bit, but after learning of the absolutely polarizing and hardly hilarious Bill Cosby routine Lorne and the gang proposed to the man that singlehandedly saved the show, we can hardly hold that against him. But what about a burgeoning young comedian like Eric Andre? What might he have to contribute to the discussion as a spry funnyman, making waves of his own with jarring, at times downright uncomfortable joke…

Watch Attorney General Eric Holder Detail The Department Of Justice’s “Searing” Report On Racist Policing In Ferguson

Posted on:

The city of Ferguson, Missouri has been found to be “a community deeply polarized. A community where deep distrust and hostility often characterize interactions between police and area residents,” said Attorney General Eric Holder at a press conference held earlier this afternoon in Washington. Holder’s 24 minute speech came after the release of the U.S. Justice Department’s 87 page report on the findings of its investigations of alleged racial bias and injustice amongst police officers and officials in Ferguson, the city where last summer unarmed teenager Michael Brown was shot and killed by local officer Darren Wilson. “Of course, violence is never justified. But seen in this context, amidst a highly toxic environment defined by mistrust and…
