SOCIAL MEDIA MEGALOMANIAC

Here’s a study straight out of the Institute of “DUH” …

New research says that there are direct ties to narcissism and involvement in social media.

In other words, the more you’re on Facebook and Twitter, the more full of yourself you are.

Researchers broke the sites down like this: “Facebook is a mirror and Twitter is a megaphone.”

So depending on what type of approval you’re looking for, you’ll most likely waste – er – spend a lot of time on one of these sites. (Media Bistro)

Ed Hardy Blames Jon Gosselin for Making His Clothing Line Uncool  

Remember when it was cool to wear ED HARDY clothes?  Ed Hardy, does.  And he blames JON GOSSELIN for RUINING IT.

Ed says, quote, “That Jon Gosselin thing was the nail in the coffin.  That’s what tanked it.  Macy’s used to have a huge window display with Ed Hardy, and it filtered down and that’s why Macy’s dropped the brand.”

Ed is the tattoo artist who created the art for the Ed Hardy line.  French fashion designer CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER licensed his work in 2005, and commercialized it … putting it on everything from clothes, to air fresheners and energy drinks.

Ed says Christian connected with Jon Gosselin, and set him up with a wardrobe FULL of Ed Hardy stuff.  He says, quote, “Christian worships celebrities so much, he will get next to anyone who is famous for anything.”

Ed and Christian are no longer in business.  Ed regained control over his art in 2010, and is moving forward with the Ed Hardy brand.  

(And this is probably the first time ANYONE has mentioned Jon Gosselin in YEARS.  Here are some pictures of Gosselin wearing Ed Hardy, circa 2009.)
