I am on Kardashian overload, but still have to chuckle when I consider how Kim K. makes headlines morning and afternoon. She made news in People magazine on Monday morning for wearing a silver cocktail dress and stilettos to bowl at the opening of lanes at the Foxwoods casino complex in Connecticut on Saturday. She made news in People on Monday afternoon for appearing nude on the cover of November’s W magazine. I can hardly wait to see how she dresses (or doesn’t) next.

This is kind of hard to imagine, but Justin Bieber -- yes, Justin Bieber -- is reportedly ‘designing’ a line of nail colors called One Less Lonely Girl for Nicole by OPI. I’m not sure what goes into ‘designing’ nail polish -- mixing the colors, maybe? But doesn’t this 16-year-old have enough on his plate, what with singing, inciting adoration in teenage girls and such? [StyleList]
