Items Du Jour: Kim Kardashian on Glamour, Lady Gaga Tops Magazine Sales

Taylor Swift and Blake Lively were the worst-selling celebrities.

-- Elle magazine's parent company Lagardere is in talks with Hearst (Harper's Bazaar publisher) to sell all 40-plus foreign editions of the fashion glossy (sans the original French version) as soon as the end of the month. Lagardere claims it will keep full editorial control, despite whatever happens in the sale.

-- Kim Kardashian covers Glamour in pajamas, which she makes look incredibly sexy, despite what she says in her interview: "I don’t find myself as sexy as everyone thinks. I’m a lot more insecure than people would assume, but with little stupid things." This must explain why she constantly poses nude or in skin-tight outfits.

-- Androgynous model Andrej Pejic stars in the latest Marc by Marc Jacobs campaign, alongside Ginta Lapina. One can actually detect that he's most likely a guy in the photo.

Erin O’Connor Grateful For Short Hair

Erin O'Connor on the runwayErin O'Connor only became a successful model after cutting off all her hair.

The 32-year-old beauty says she wasn't getting very many jobs when she first started out in the industry because she looked so similar to the other girls, so took advice and chopped off her long locks.

"When I first began modeling I was very conventional looking - I had hair down to my waist. I went on a photo shoot and a make-up artist told me 'You need to cut off your hair - it's doing you no favors. If you do that we'll see you.' A new identity was born for me - quite tough, quite unapologetic but definitely there."

Erin recently revealed she has no plans to retire from the catwalk, despite being one of the more older models. "I hate that idea of retirement or 'You're past your sell-by-date.' That is very odd, because, for me, it is about moving, showcasing and being an outrageous poser. You'd think after 15 years I would be bored, but I'm not. The catwalk is like liberation, because there is a bit of performance involved, a bit of skill thrown in, so it doesn't matter what age you are."

Amber Le Bon wants to shave her head.

The 21-year-old model admits she is desperate to lose her long brunette locks in favour of a buzz cut - which has previously been sported by , Britney Spears and Natalie Portman - but is unable to do so because she is currently under contract: “I so want to shave my head. Unfortunately I can’t at the moment because of all my modeling contracts - I’m not allowed to change anything about my appearance, but I am determined to do it by the time I am 27.”

Amber’s eccentric hairstyle wishes don’t end there, and the model, who is the daughter of Simon and Yasmin Le Bon, admits she is also tempted to dye it a “peach melba” color.

“I’d love to dye it pink - well, a peach melba color - and cut it shorter, but again, I can’t do that, contractually, which is frustrating.”

Amber’s mother recently admitted she is thrilled her daughter is following her into modeling, and believes she will go far because she is so “humble.”

Items Du Jour: Miley Makes a Match, Janet Gets Short, and Angels Get Ads

Janet Jackson cuts her hair- While her Wal-Mart lines aren’t faring well in sales, Miley Cyrus isn’t looking too worried these days, as she flashes her leopard print bra for the public while picking up some grub. While the matching prints are a bit tacky, it’s nice to see that she’s actually wearing a bra.

- Janet Jackson was spotted in London yesterday, having chopped off her locks. While I was never a fan of the Amber Rose trend, I can’t say that I’m hating Jackson’s look!

- I love Michelle Williams and I love Chanel, but when the pair were together for the after party of her film Blue Valentine‘s premiere, I fell out of love for what looked like Grandma’s satin bed sheet vengeance. Her new short hair style is killer, but not with the plain fabric wrap.

- Think that you know everything about your favorite supermodels? Try taking this fab quiz to test your knowledge about their humble beginnings.

- Kate Moss have some fairly interesting ideas, but I do have to give it to her for innovation. The Topshop designer attended the unveiling of her latest collection in one of her own pieces, but she wore it backwards! She has this uncanny ability to wear anything so well that I doubt that anyone would’ve known had it not been in her line.

First Look: Lady Gaga Cuts Back on Hair for Alejandro

Lady Gaga's

The first look at ‘s latest music video for “Alejandro” is out, and initial reactions aren’t too flattering. Whether it be a comparison to animated folks like Ronald McDonald or The Simpsons character Mr. Burns (when he played a vampire of course), our favorite fashionista isn’t pleasing everyone. Personally, I’m glad she cut back on the extravagant hair pieces—it’s nice to see a little more natural Gaga, on top of just doing something different than her usual fare.
