Hero Worship

Part 15: TLC





Good fashion. Feel good moments. Three girls in metallic latex jumpsuits. Front-laced waistcoats. Suede fringe mini skirts. In cropped gym tops and wide cargo trousers. Highlights and belly buttons.

Gym Inspiration

Neneh Cherry - Kisses On The Wind 1989

Isn't her outfit just absolutely flawless. A black high waisted tube skirt and a bra top - nothing else. Buffalo Style merged with minimalsim. Graphic and straight-forward.

A Short History Of The Plastic Raincoat In Popular Culture

1. Kylie Minogue - Better The Devil You Know, 1990
2. Therese - Feelin' Me, 2007
3. Prada campaign, Fall/Winter 2002
4. Blade Runner, 1982

Thanks to gym television I've been confronted with the use of plastic raincoats in music videos. An interesting topic worth contemplating on. And of course several cross-references came to my mind. So my dear, what do you have to add to this discourse?

Group Of Four

Tamara De Lempicka vs. Robert Palmer

Women with sleek hair, smokey eyes and red lipstick - a repetitive leitmotif of timeless beauty. Women who use the definitions of sex as their weapon and source of strength.

Current State Of Mind

Stills Beyoncé - Why Don't You Love Me

"Why don't you love me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you love me
When I make me so damn easy to love?
And why don't you need me?
Tell me, baby, why don't you need me
When I make me so damn easy to need?
I got beauty, I got class
I got style, and I got ass
And you don't even care to care"

Hero Worship

Part 12: Kelis





Only hardly can I elude her majesty. The last living real Buschfrau on earth. She arose from oblivion to claim back her kingdom. Armoured with a crispy voice and a blue-haired poodle. We are willing to give her everything she demands.

Analgetic

A new male couple to adore. Beautiful music that evokes memories of most beloved Prefab Sprout. Accompanied by impeccable style. The perfect boy band is stuck in former times, wearing suits and combed back hair. The perfect boy band Hurts.
