Artist Marc Quinn has unveiled a golden statue of Kate Moss entitled "Siren". The $18 million gold statue is part of the Statuephilia exibition at the British Museum. Kate is depicted in a yoga pose. It is a continuation of an earlier work entitled "Sphinx" with Moss as it's subjet as well.

The artist describes the piece as follows: "Siren is an image that glows and gives out love and light," Quinn said in a statement. "But [it also] remains completely implacable and silent."

ESCANDALO GRANDISSMO - ALICE DELLAL IS THE NEW COCAINE KATE!!!!

Lite and The Sun

Alice Dellal, celebutante model and ex girlfriend of Prince Pierre Casighari (3rd in line for the throne of Monaco), was recently caught with photographs in which she appears to be partying with a "white" substance, A.K.A. "Charlie/Flake/Snow".

The Sun is the publication which broke the story and printed the pictures. The first pic is of Alice and a friend, taken in July, with a huge line of the white substance, on a DVD cover with a green straw close by. The second pic, taken in March, has Alice looking away from the camera, intent with concentration over a white paper bindle, most commonly used to package cocaine or other powdered drugs.

Hollywood Grind wrote a posting about Ms. Dellal's scandal but included 2 additional pictures. One is of Alice blowing into a condom strapped over her face with a rubber band. The other has Alice sprawled on the ground between two giant plant pots.

For more history on Alice, you can refer to my previous posting via this link. There's also a brief biography on her via the Ask Men website which you can read here.

Currently Alice is in New York for the S/S 2009 Fashion Week. Who knows what will happen when she gets back to London and how she will deal with the scandal. Will she take the "high" road and keep silent, like Kate Moss, thus hopefully not only saving her career, but perhaps furthering it with the publicity and support of her peers? We all know that the fashion industry is very forgiving when it comes to drug use. As long as you show up and take care of work/business, then the industry doesn't care about what you do in your private time.

Agent Provacateur, which was set to launch Alice's new campaign and her agent (Select London) declined to comment. Mango, the previous company to use Ms. Dellal, has yet to issue a statement.

What do you think of party/personal pictures, and those of other celebrities such as Kate Moss and Amy Winehouse being printed for public consumption? Should we care what they do in their personal time? Having had experience myself of personal pictures being distributed to industry peers, I think it's a matter of privacy.

What one does in their private time shouldn't matter with the public, as long as your not hurting anyone else, or breaking major laws (i.e. murder, rape, robbery, felonies). Especially if you continue to be a credit to the industry. But that's just my PERSONAL OPINION based on PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. And there we have it.

Alice Dellal, British Celebutante model, has just booked the new Mango campaign. She is the daugther of a former Brazilian Model mother Andrea Dellal and British Multi-Millionaire father Guy Dellal. Ms. Dellal was also famous for replacing Kate Moss as the face of Agent Provocateur.

Ms. Dellal has two siblings, a sister named Charlotte Dellal and a brother named Alex Dellal. Alice made the tabloids when she was dating Prince Pierre Casiraghi, while her brother Alex dated Pierre's sister Charlotte Casiraghi.

The Casiraghi kids are the grandchildren of Princess Grace and Prince Ranier of Monaco. Kinda creepy that the Dellal siblings were dating the Casiraghi siblings, no?

Here is the complete set of images from Kate Moss' September 2008 issue of Interview Magazine photographed by art director/photographer Fabien Baron.

Mr. Baron is now the creative director of Interview magazine and this issue marks his premiere. He states "Quality needs to be put into magazines today, otherwise there will be no reason for magazines to exist."

In the accompanying article Kate shares her opinions on breast implants. She says that -

"They are awful. So many of my friends have had them, and they’ve gone wrong. One of my friends’ tits started growling like the giant peach, and blood started coming out the nipple. "

"Then another friend of mine had one that sort of moved up to her shoulder. One tit was normal, and the other was up by her collarbone. I know only one girl who has good ones. And most of them are so hard you can knock on them like a door."

" I’m not into them. I mean, if I got all saggy, like the sacks some women have after they have children, I’d have them done. I’m not against them, but if you have normal ones, just to have them enlarged for the sake of having big ones… I don’t really like big tits anyway."
