Today's Evil Beet Gossip

Holy Shit, Mr. Blackwell Is Dead!!!

That sigh of relief passing through Hollywood right now?

Is because of this news.

Vicious fashion critic Richard Blackwell has passed away from an intestinal infection at the age of 86.

Mr. Blackwell, thank you for your hard work in pioneering this fabulous industry in which I today thrive, and for titling your autobiography From Rags to Bitches, which is totally the most awesome title ever.

RIP, buddy.

  • Very sorry, he was amazing and extremely interesting person, i really very sorry-so talented and brillianrt he was striking example of a real designer who could sarcastically point out the defects of image of celebrities and who showed us that even them are not perfect all the time….. RIP

  • Awesome line: “Bjork: “She dances in the dark — and dresses there, too.” Cher’s probably opening a bottle to celebrate this moment.

  • LOL with Melady.
    Mr. Blackwell is fashion hell where poka-dots, stripes and checkered patterns are all worn together 24-7. He wrote some very mean comments in his life time.

  • The first time I ever heard of him was when he called Cher “A bag of tattooed bones in a sequined slingshot.” I thought dang, this guy’s funny and he’s right.
