Trouble maybe looming for Beyonce and her House of Dereon fashion label. The superstar has been accused of copying the design of a pair of leggings she bought from Topshop while in London earlier this year. Beyonce was photographed wearing the studded leggings that are made by Icelandic fashion brand, E-Label.
The line’s co-owner, Helba Hallgrimsdottir, stated:
“This is naturally huge and I am still half in shock. I didn’t twig straight away that this was her own label: I just thought she was wearing our leggings. It is practically just copy/paste.”
Check out the the brand’s version from their website and the pair Beyonce is wearing in the current promo ad for her line.
Madonna could reportedly earn as much as $1 billion if she signs up for a Las Vegas residency.
Promoters in Las Vegas are currently trying to persuade Madonna to agree to a five-year run, similar to former Vegas acts including Celine Dion and Sir Elton John.

In Taylors new interview with SPIN magazine, she once again suffers a severe attack of verbal diarrhea, this time aimed at pop starlet Rihanna,
People think pop is rock, and the lines are getting blurred. Now Rihanna’s wearing f*ckin’ leather jackets, and it’s really annoying.
Describing her look as ‘high-class hooker,’ 17 year old Taylor also spoke out on her controversial dress sense.
I dress for myself,’ she said. ’Clearly, it’s provocative, but it makes me feel good. And if the only reason it makes someone uncomfortable is because I’m 17, then that person’s a scumbag because it shouldn’t matter.’
Anna Wintour joined New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and several of the city’s biggest fashion stars to announce the plans for Manhattan’s Fashion’s Night Out on September 7.
Marc Jacobs, Mary-Kate Olsen, Donna Karan,Tommy Hilfiger, Diane Von Furstenberg, Tory Burch and Fransisco Costa all stood side-by-side as the Mayor announced the fashionable festivities this year.
The men and women standing up here are the fashion-world stars,” Bloomberg began. “If they say that bootcut pants are back in style, then bootcut pants are back in style. If they say capes are en vogue, then capes are en vogue.”
Marc Jacobs then took to the lectern to share his experience of last year’s Fashions Night Out:
My office is two blocks away from our Mercer Street shop, and I had promised to go over to the shop [on Fashion's Night Out] — it took me about two hours to get two blocks, because I was stopped every two minutes by people out on the street. It was like a block party”
The citywide shopping extravaganza – which blew past industry expectations last year as stores stayed open late and lured shoppers with food, drink and parties – has enlisted 1,000 stores to participate, up from 800.
This time, a flashy runway show at Lincoln Center will be added to the festivities on Sept. 7, with tickets starting at $25 each. Vogue Editor Anna Wintour and designer Diane Von Furstenberg have led promotion of the event.
London will be having their share of the fun a day later on September 8.
