“Fashion Rocks” Cover Reveals Pop Music’s Preservation In Amber

fashiondoesntreallyrock.jpg The cover for Conde Nast’s annual Fashion Rocks supplement has been revealed, and its tacit admission that few of the people who will have multiple copies of the thing cluttering up their houses have been paying attention to pop music much is, at the very least, impressive in its brazenness: People haven’t really paid attention to music over the past two years, it seems to be saying, so why not just serve up the alternate cover we were going to run before Jennifer Lopez muscled her way onto Page One last year? Well played. And budget-conscious, too! (The asterisk next to the Kills’ coverline is probably my favorite part of the whole thing. “Wait, before you run away, here’s a celebrity-related reason to care about this band!”) [E!]

    “How I Got My Look” by Joan Jett might be worthwhile if it contains health tips, I saw her live last week and she’s in incredible shape for a woman who’s about to turn 50.

    Joan Jett doesn’t smoke, hasn’t had a drink in like 30 years and works out religiously. There, I saved you $3.

    Now I’m gonna go have a Stella with my lunch.
