The purple queen is pretty cool though, with the weirdo glasses.

Well he has been known to get BJs in bathrooms scattered around town from Bonnie Morrison, the fashion world's resident quasi-black member of the tribe. Uber-preppy guys tend to have a well-hidden love affair with ancient Biggie songs and all things ghetto-tastic. He'll claim the costume was "ironic," but really, he saw it as an opp to dress exactly how he wishes he could dress in the MV office daily.

That tool was going for gangsta, falls short and ends up with LA County cellblock bitch-of-the-month. (Secretly his rape fantasy). When I see the bottom pick, all I can think of is, "where's a bunker buster when you need one." BTW, Hud backwards is 'duh.'

@tunamelt: I spent 11 years of my life that I'll never get back in LA. The sad part about that video, is that it's not far from the truth.

A gangster? He must have spent a long time on his costume there.

Makes me think of the yuppie rap video "Tea Partay".

(I'm a virgin when it comes to posting actual videos. Be gentle with me.)

If he's a gangster then that means there's a good chance of him getting shot right?

He was Lloyd Grove's butt boy -- not a columnist. Don't enhance his resume anymore than he already has.

So of course I know that "fancy dress" is all British-y for "costume," but I still can't help the cognitive dissonance I feel when I read "fancy" and it is followed up by photos of these tools.

"Gangster"? Is that what he's supposed to be? And here I thought he was washing the car when he suddenly recalled he had a party to attend.

@hamburgerhotdog: My name is Hud Mo, what I don't eat I snarf; why y'all hatin' on another brother's scarf? Y'all Gawker bitches are media meanies, what y'all need is a nice fruitini. Flavor it! Savor it! Sip-it-sip-it-tip-it! Down the hatch, I make a new batch, and then yell at JA and call her a snatch!

He looks like an understudy for a backup dancer in a community theatre production of "Fame". Which is to say, he looks like a d-bag.

If the guy in the back row of the lower pic with the piate jacket on was going for 1983 Adam Ant, he nailed it.

Ok, and I must add, the sweet little moue he's giving the camera, as well as the headband, make him far more Tallullah Bankhead than Crip Crankhead.
