    i am a SuperOld and styled Barney for a catalogue around 1990ish when he modeled. He was not a known artist at the time and his claim to fame in my eyes was he'd posed for the J. Crew. So yeah, I've seen his Cremasterballs.

    Is that a new picture? Bjork looking quite the Grande Dame. What is he saying with those Sandals there? I just...I just don't get that, in public we wear shoes.

    These rumors have been around for a long while. Is there some news, some link to something where this is at all fresh?

    Barney is selling his bachelor pad. They didn't use the Sneden's place as much as they'd like. He collaborated with Peyton in Greece. So? Is this 8th grade? There's nothing substantial here.

    (Really not a fan of Peyton's btw. Talk about extravagant overpraise, teenage watercolor doodlings, set to a Tiger Beat sensibility. Not even that well painted, her fame is an exaltation of amateurism. Her work is about a centimeter deep.)

    @Baroness: Oh, but if I could promote a starred commentator to a higher level I would. But I shall suffice with this meager comment. Nicely put!

    @dontread: I'll promote you because i am in total agreement w/ Baroness as well.

    Always hated Peyton. It's a celebration of what? It's not even nothing. Nothing would be a lot more than what Peyton does.

    When Bjork was in an Icelandic punk band called "Cork That Bitch's Ass" and hanging out with Current 93, Matt was playing sports and fingerbanging cheerleaders.

    This could not have worked out.

    I did think they looked good together and feel bad for their daughter if this is true.

    Or whatever I find lying around"

    And Elizabeth Peyton looks like a Bjork wannabe, too!

    This week has been crazy with so many Bjork rip offs. First Karen O's song for "Where the Wild Things Are," which is called, "All is Love." Bjork's "All is Full of Love Anyone"?
    And then Michael Bublé's song "Haven't Met You Yet"...Bjork's "I Miss You", which contains very similar lyrics.

    Forget him, my icelandic goddess, he's a artsy fartsy fuck who does weird for weird's sake...you do weird because you are the epitome of awesomeness!!!

    There's an hilarious tongue-in-cheek takedown of Barney in Harper's from 2000. It's definitely worth a read.

    This rumor would be so much better if it was instead Bjork leaving Barney for Peyton.
