This is The S/ List.
1. New York-based indie jewelry line, Lady Grey, threw major shade at Ivanka Trump.
“Dear Ivanka, thank you so much for your web order! We’re happy to let you know that the proceeds of your sale have been generously donated to the American Immigration Council, the Everytown for Gun Safety Organization, and the Hillary Clinton campaign. We hope you enjoy your new Lady Grey [Helix Ear Cuff].”
2. Bella Hadid proudly joins the “Free the Nipple” movement in her French Vogue spread.
“But she’s not the first in her family to make a nude appearance on the cover of the magazine. Her older sister, Gigi Hadid, posed for French Vogue wearing nothing but a bit of Chanel No. 5 in February. Something about the Parisian mag gets the Hadids to strip down in the name of fashion and art.”
3. Sailor Brinkley Cook snaps back at the trolls.
“Like Gigi Hadid before her, Cook took to the social media platform on Wednesday to finally take a stand against internet trolls, specifically those who relentlessly compare her to her mother and say that she’ll never amount to much scholastically.”
4. Blake Shelton has some homophobic and racist skeletons in his (Twitter) closet.
I”n 2011, Blake Shelton tweeted: ‘Wish the dickhead in the next room would either shut or learn some English so I would at least know what he’s planning to bomb!!’ That tweet and others – including one from 2009 in which he wrote ‘If you haven’t noticed Richard Simmons is gay, you haven’t noticed Katy Perry’s boobs’ – which some interpreted as racist and homophobic, resurfaced online this weekend, sparking a minor backlash.”
5. Is American Apparel selling? Sounds like it.
