i got this issue yesterday and it seems really empty to me..there are hardly any eds..and i thought that october was the location issue? or is it the november one?
Yeah, Alice Dellal really is a douchebag. Even from that one snippet of an interview, I totally dislike the girl.
And yeah, Cory Kennedy tries way too hard...I'm almost embarassed for Nylon that they continue to push the "it girl" thing on people. She is NOT an it girl, and not every girl wants to be her.
I enjoyed Taylor's pictures/article though. It's good to see someone new, that actually has her own style and doesn't try to show off this "I'm an adult even though I'm 16 and too cool for school" sort of attitude.
ITA...and I found Cory to be very desperate...I mean she had a nervous breakdown just because she didn't achieve fame at a young age. That's a little strange...
Did she say that in this Nylon issue or are you referring to the i-D one ?
If it's the latter, I'm not a huge of fan of Cory but I don't think she said that, I guess from what I can remember, she said she wanted to acheive something ( some media/art related projects or stuff that deal with them as I interpreted it) and that she never came around making it by the time she reached 16.I don't think she meant that she got depressed because she was desperate to become famous.
God, I'm getting so nostalgic of the time when Nylon used to be an 'indie' (though I hate the word) fashion oriented magazine instead of this 'sold out' version that pimps myspace/hollywood/pop culture.
Wait, isn't Charlotte Casiragho dating Felix Winckler ?
Bah, I knew what you meant .
I'm not trying to be naive or anything but I guess that while I'm saturated by the usual 'young hollywood' scene and while I definitely can see Cory's flaws, I'm not that inclined to just 'vilify' anyone that easily.
Yes, she got depressed and got hospitalized , I still don't see why it's necessarily related to the fact that, according to you, she was so desperate to be famous.
She dated the guy from cobrasnake.Ok, they bumped into each other at gigs and parties several times, he started to take pictures of her because he thought she looked cool then they dated.I still don't see why dating a guy that takes pictures of you and put it on a website could mean that you're desperate to be famous.I can see it happening without necessarily blaming her for being an 'attention seeker'.I mean we could even say that that guy from the cobrasnake (his name is Mark ? I can't remember) knew right from the start that his website would gain some attention because of Cory,and therefore dated her, that seems just as much incoherent to me.
A lot of people (including me) want to be noticed/recognized for something else than just being a student, that doesn't necessarily imply fame.
