Diddy Celebrates His 40th Birthday
November 4, 2009 by Kyle Anderson
Filed under Celebrity, Entertainment, Fashion News & Gossip

If you happen to pass by Sean Combs, be sure to wish him a happy birthday, as the man better known as Diddy turns 40 years old today. While it’s bizarre to think if Diddy as a guy in the depths of middle age, it’s also odd to think that he isn’t older. Diddy has been such a dominant, ubiquitous force in pop culture since the ’90s that it’s almost as if he has always been with us. There have been countless highs (smash hits like “It’s All About the Benjamins,” “I’ll Be Missing You” and “Bad Boy for Life”) and devastating lows (most notably the death of his friend the Notorious B.I.G.), but he has certainly changed the face of hip-hop and gave rise to the idea of diversification among pop stars. He’s dabbled in fashion, fragrances, restaurants and alcohol, and his empire is constantly expanding.
They say hip-hop is a young man’s game, though that’s mostly because the art form itself is only about 30 years old. Still, there aren’t a whole lot of artists who are aging as gracefully as Diddy is, though a handful of these 40-and-over elder statesmen join him. (Jay-Z enters the club in December.)
RZA
Age: 40
Early Career: Built grimy beats and rapped psychedelic nonsense alongside his Wu-Tang Clan brothers on the instant classic Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers
Today: Spends equal time in the music world (mostly behind the decks) and the film world (where he both acts and provides scores for friends like Jim Jarmusch and Quentin Tarantino).
Chuck D
Age: 49
Early Career: Blew the doors off rap music as the main mouthpiece of Public Enemy, who brought politics and social issues to mainstream hip-hop.
Today: Spends most of his time on activism via radio and the Web, though he is currently working on a new PE album.
DJ Premier
Age: 43
Early Career: Cut up classic beats as one half of influential tag-team Gang Starr.
Today: Still provides cutting-edge beats and production for artists as diverse as Ludacris, Christina Aguilera and Maroon 5 while also giving up-and-comers and underground cats a boost.
Dr. Dre
Age: 44
Early Career: Built parents-scaring beats for N.W.A, then invented an entire movement with The Chronic.
Today: Though the world is still waiting for Detox, Dre still puts in time behind the scenes with a number of high-profile artists (including Eminem and 50 Cent) and is also responsible for a killer pair of headphones.
Ice Cube
Age: 40
Early Career: Was the primary lyrical voice of N.W.A., then broke off on a killer solo career, turning out classic full-lengths like AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted.
Today: Cube has fashioned himself into an extremely bankable film star and continues to put out deeply underrated albums (last year’s Raw Footage was full of bangers that got very little fanfare).
Natalie Portman Covers V Magazine

Natalie Portman shows her sexy androgynous side in the winter issue of V Magazine, on newsstands today.
The 28-year-old actress, who posed for Mario Testino in London for the shoot, wore Calvin Klein jeans and embellishments on the cover and opened up about sexuality, the internet and ambition:
On harsh criticism of her Star Wars work: “My acting was not exactly respected in those films [laughs] but those are the moments when you want to prove yourself again. When people think I suck, it helps.”
On how the internet affects her roles: “[O]nline bulls— interferes with what I want to do artistically. I’m not opposed to sexuality or nudity in a film, but I’m very opposed to pornography sites and you’re pretty much giving them material if you do any of that.”
On striving to be her best: “To be successful, you need the desire to be successful. Ambition can be a dirty word, but it’s pretty much more important than anything.”

Tricia Helfer Promotes Her Maxim

Actress Tricia Helfer is on the cover of the November issue of Maxim magazine with Grace Park. If you missed them, make sure you check out the Maxim photos I posted earlier this week from Tricia’s shoot. Now let me start by saying that Tricia Helfer looks good in these photos. However, after comparing today’s photos to the pictures from the magazine, I can tell that quite a bit of airbrushing has taken place for Maxim. But hey, that comes with the territory. Tricia Helfer looks her 35 years today, but she still delivers.

A Day of Reckoning at Conde Nast
October 19, 2009 by Hamilton Nolan

We hear Wired had its own round of editorial layoffs today. What’s going on at Conde Nast? A very bad Monday. In a very bad month. Let’s review:
- WIRED: Wired.com laid off two top editors earlier this month. Today, tipsters tell us “at least six people” were canned at Wired—a mix of editorial and ad sales employees, including at least one veteran editor.
- Glamour: At least a half dozen editorial layoffs today. This follows at least seven business side layoffs there earlier this month, including a reality TV star.
- Lucky: At least four editorial layoffs today.
Today seems to have been the day when the ax started swinging on the editorial side. The wave of layoffs over the last two weeks hit mostly business side staffers: Ten at W magazine, six at Vanity Fair, at least two at Self, at least ten at the golf magazines, six at Vogue, more than a dozen at Brides.
If you don’t work at the New Yorker, be nervous.
UPDATE: Then again—a tipster tells us “at least 7 people let go from ad sales and creative services over the past 3 weeks” at the New Yorker. But uh, editorial side should be perfectly safe.
