Now, God knows this half of LiS has been out with some shockers in her time. And, in the wake of Amy Winehouse and now Marc Jacobs, I'm happy to learn that it was a genetic religious thing as opposed to signs of immature stupidity. But Marc Jacobs' recent wedding concerns me, even more than Amy Winehouse's bloodied ballet slippers and choice of a husband going by the name of Blake.
Admittedly, this is partly because *I* love Marc and kinda always assumed this gay thing was just a phase he was going through and one day I would be walking up the aisle with a small, occasionally tubby, neurotic, dark haired New York Jew who makes me pinafore dresses with big buttons, just as I'd long predicted. But seeing as he is about to get married to someone called Jason, this seems unlikely to come to pass.
But even if jealousy wasn't a feature, I would still be concerned. For a start, this Jason is, as has been stated on record, a former prostitute and drug addict, which is perhaps not the greatest partner for a fashion designer who has recently completed his latest stint in rehab.
But hey, everyone deserves a second chance, yeah? However, the fact that he got Marc Jacobs' name tattooed on his arm in the font of Jacobs' fashion logo is, frankly, bonkers, and not a little suggestive of what Jason possibly sees as Jacobs' main appeal. This uncomfortable suspicion is further confirmed by a recent interview with Jason in which he claims that the reason people have been nasty about him in the past is just because they're jealous: "It's jealousy - who wouldn't want to date Marc Jacobs?" Uh, hello? Am I the only one who finds it weird to hear someone refer to their future husband by their first and last name, like they were some product or - huh - fashion brand?
Admittedly, I almost began to soften towards Jason when he concluded his interview with the clearly rhetorical question, "Wouldn't it be fierce if my bridesmaids were Mariah, Naomi Campbell and Lindsay?" But then I remembered that they should have been MY bridesmaids and I hated him again
