Okay ,I know that we are in a recession and therfore ,going shopping for clothes is Probably out of the question ,but these 2 celebs need better people .The twin from Psquare (I don't knw which one is peter or Paul)looks ridcuous in that pink panther -inspired outfit from head-to-tie.Looks like he's advertising Pink .If he was trying 2 get attention ,then he def got stares.
Okay ,then there is zambian-irish singer/actor Samantha Mumba.She suddenly comes back on the scene and decides to make a comeback in that outfit?Capri pants are so 2004 ,and esp glittery/bedazzled ones .Like wtf is up with their stylists?Maybe they can't afford to have any stylists anymore ,so they are dressing themselves .Or maybe they are buying clothes off the clearance rack .I sure am ,but I'm not the one who has to walk the red carpet or be taken pics of.
SO,WHAT DO U THINK?SHOULD THEY FIRE THEIR STYLISTS?LET ME KNW!
