Jeffree Star, one of the world’s biggest beauty influencers, has responded to the backlash he’s faced for his upcoming “Cremated” makeup collection.
The beauty vlogger and brand founder posted a 20-minute video on his YouTube channel Wednesday talking about his namesake beauty brand’s upcoming eye shadow palette, called the Cremated Palette, which has been met with criticism over its insensitive theme amid the coronavirus crisis.
“Nothing ever comes from a bad place, so if you were thinking that, absolutely not,” he said in the video while sporting a gothic-themed makeup look created from the palette. “My brand, I created this to make people smile. I created a brand for all the weirdos and the people that didn’t really feel like they fit in, so in no way was this created to be offensive ever.”

DRINK UP: Through an exclusive licensing deal with IMG, AB InBev will be reaching out to consumers in Europe and the Middle East beyond beer bottles.
The multiyear partnership has been put in place to line up licensed products including fashion ones for Budweiser, Stella Artois, Beck’s, Leffe and other brands. In addition to beer-branded apparel, drinkers and teetotalers alike may have the option of buying licensed food and home and garden products from their favorite beer labels.
The focus on Europe is in line with the conglomerate’s heritage. Anheuser-Busch InBev is the world’s leading brewer. Based in Leuven, Belgium, the company has about 175,000 employees around the globe, including 12,000 in Europe. In addition to its Global Innovation Center in its home city, AB InBev has offices and breweries in 18 European Union member states.
AB InBev has had a bumpy few months financially, as bars, clubs and restaurants shut down due to the pandemic. First-quarter core profit was $3.95 billion, representing a 13.7 percent drop compared to last year. Despite its global volume declining by 32 percent in April, company brass recently pointed to green shoots of a recovery in China and South Korea, where businesses are reopening.
As the shutdown has

Megan Thee Stallion is taking her hit song “Savage” to the next level as the new brand partner for Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty lingerie brand.
The musician appears in the company’s latest campaign, #SavageXTheeStallion, which is part of the brand’s community-led summer campaign initiative where brand partners, ambassadors and influencers create self-produced photoshoots from their homes. The brand is teaming with mixed media artist Rafatoon to put together the campaigns.
Stallion appears in the campaign modeling pieces such as the brand’s Helenca Lace Push-Up Bra and Thong, the T-Shirt Bra and Booty Short and the Balconette Bra and Side Tie Undie.

“Meg is the energy we were looking for,” Rihanna said in a statement. “She is a risk taker with an attitude, character and personality.”
The musician’s appointment as Savage x Fenty brand partner comes after Stallion helped launched the brand’s TikTok account in April with the #SavageChallenge, where she’s seen modelling the brand’s lingerie while dancing along to her hit song. The challenge has since gone viral on the social media platform, with the hashtag recording nearly 800 million views.

Lori Loughlin and Mossimo Giannulli have pleaded guilty in their connection to the college admissions scandal.
The “Full House” actress and the fashion designer are pleading guilty to conspiracy charges, with Loughlin pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud and Giannulli pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud and honest services wire and mail fraud, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the District of Massachusetts.
Loughlin was sentenced to two months in prison plus a $150,000 fine and two years of supervised release with 100 hours of community service. Giannulli was sentenced to five months in prison, a $250,000 fine and two years of supervised release with 250 hours of community service.
Loughlin and Giannulli made headlines last year when news broke that the couple — in addition to 14 other parents, including actress Felicity Huffman — were involved in a bribery scheme where they allegedly paid $500,000 to get their daughters, Olivia Jade and Isabella Giannulli, admitted to the University of Southern California as crew recruits even though neither rowed crew.
The couple was charged with multiple counts of conspiracy, including mail fraud, wire fraud, honest services fraud and money
