Kim Kardashian Hosts SKIMS Launch Dinner Khloe, Naomi, Hulu Attend
Kim Kardashian played dinner host in Miami over the weekend for some of her hottest and most famous friends to celebrate the launch of her SKIMS Swim line ... and you can bet Hulu cameras were there, too.
The whole thing went down Saturday at Swan -- David Grutman and Pharrell's restaurant -- where guests dined on pizza, prawns, artichokes, brussels sprouts and more.
As for the guestlist, Khloe Kardashian, Naomi Osaka, Karolina Kournikova, Amanda Anisimova, Malika Haqq, Candice Swanepoel, Lourdes Leon, and Emma Grede -- to name a few.
We're told Kim opened the dinner with a toast to thank everyone for attending the big launch ... something she and her team have put a ton of work into. Hulu cameras were on hand to capture Kim's entire trip.
TMZ broke the story -- lines for the SKIMS Swim popup in South Beach were INSANE over the weekend ... Kim, Khloe and friends Olivia Pierson, Natalie Halcro, Stephanie Shepherd and Tracy Romulus all stopped by the shop before the celebratory dinner.
Of course, while Kim's launch went swimmingly, the event came just a couple days after it was announced BF Pete Davidson's launch to space will no longer happen. The Blue Origin trip -- originally scheduled for March 23 -- was pushed to the 29th without Pete.

Ashley Tisdale Good Genes or Good Docs?!
Ashley Tisdale's look over the years is exactly what "I've We've Been Looking For!"
Here's a 17-year-old version of the New Jersey-born actress at an 'MY - TEE Summer Soiree' Hosted by actress Brittany Snow back in 2003. This was just years before she would star in Disney's iconic "High School Musical" and "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody" (left).
And, 19 years later ... the now 36-year-old mom may have switched her youthful smile to a mature smize, but that hasn't diverted her love and passion for health and beauty -- as she now has her own beauty company called Frenshe.
"We're All in This Together!"
The question is ...

Kim K's SKIMS Crazy Lines for Pop-Up in Miami ... New Swimwear Line
-
Exclusive
- 1.5K shares
Kim Kardashian has a new line of SKIMS hitting the market ... and the people seem more than eager to get a taste.
Check out these lines that had formed early Saturday in the Miami design district outside of a pop-up store there that was all set to start hawking the brand's new line, just in time for summer. It's called SKIMS Swim ... so yes, her shapewear company is doing bathing suits.
As you can see ... the amount of people waiting to get their hands on some is insane -- the line literally snakes through a plaza courtyard and then around the block.
We've heard some people even waited there overnight to hold their spot ... and for good reason. The collection is almost all sold out at this point, save for a few pieces.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
This is the first pop-up SKIMS has done in Miami, and it would seem the debut was well-received and then some by paying customers.
BTW, the line comes with a handful of color options -- in addition to SKIMS's known neutral skin tone colors, there are some others that really pop ... like cobalt blue and periwinkle violet.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
And, of course, there are different designs for the types of suits you can snatch up -- including a traditional 2-piece bikini, or some pieces that cover up a bit more. Better hurry ... they're going like hotcakes!

French Prez Emmanuel Macron Rockin' Street Clothes at Work ... Zelensky-Inspired Look???
Volodymyr Zelensky is winning hearts with his bravery -- but he may be winning in fashion too ... because another national leader seems to be taking some dress cues from him.
Here's French President Emmanuel Macron taking care of business in the Golden Room of the Élysée Palace ... where he's hard at work in his office, taking international calls and dealing with the Ukraine crisis -- all while looking super gruff and incredibly dressed-down.
Compared to how Macron normally gets done up --suited, booted and clean-shaven -- this is kind of the exact opposite appearance ... the guy's in a hoodie and jeans for crying out loud!
No shade on Macron (these threads actually work for him) ... but some think Zelensky may have something to do with his attire choice here, because as you know -- VZ has been all about the casual, man-of-the-people getup throughout all this.
Zelensky has constantly been seen rockin' green T-shirts and hoodies and the like ... all while letting a little stubble grow on his mug. Here, too, Macron is growing out his beard and sporting a similar appearance.
Like we said ... this may be perceived as Macron ripping off Zelensky's style -- perhaps even for some brownie points with the international community -- but even if that's the case ... you could consider it the ultimate compliment and the utmost flattery, which ain't terrible.
Fact is ... the dude is a total badass, and the world seems to have caught on to that. So, if some presidents wanna pay homage with a little mirror imaging ... so be it! The more the merrier.
The question now is ... will Joe Biden start showing up to the White House in tennis shoes and dad hats??? That remains to be seen, but in France -- Macron's projecting true grit.

Lady Gaga Critics Choice Awards a Bust!!!
Lady Gaga is one confident woman, but she barely held it together Sunday night at the Critics Choice Awards.
Gaga was nominated for Best Actress for her role in "House of Gucci" ... so it stands to reason she wore a black and gold Gucci dress. The deep cut had eyes popping.
Gaga's plus one was BF Michael Polansky, and dare we say ... one lucky guy!
She did double duty Sunday ... she appeared at the BAFTA Awards in London earlier in the day, then did an outfit swap to appear at the Critics Choice Awards -- being held in both Los Angeles and London -- making an entrance at The Savoy Hotel.
Gaga was nominated for Best Actress at both award ceremonies ... she came up empty-handed at both. Nevertheless ... she killed on stage.

And, 15 years later ... the now 56-year-old ex-countess is still making a splash, she recently posted a shot as she prepares for her next cabaret tour which kicks off next month (right).

Jeff Bezos Spacesuit's a Bad Fit for My Crotch ... Get My Tailor, STAT!!!
Jeff Bezos is very particular about his family jewels and how they're framed -- he threw a fit before his historic spaceflight because his Blue Origin jumpsuit didn't make his crotch look too hot.
The Amazon founder was quite upset when he first slipped on the spacesuit for a photo shoot last July, complaining it was a bad fit around his junk ... this according to a new Bloomberg report.
Jeff didn't run to Amazon for a quick fix, though ... instead, he flew his personal tailor down to Texas for some alterations before the big launch. Ah, the perks of being in the triple comma club.
Remember ... Jeff and Richard Branson were in a space race among billionaires and Branson made it up first. Jeff blasted off in a Blue Origin rocket that many mocked for its phallic shape. Now that we know, ya could say the spacesuit issue was perfect foreshadowing for Jeff's spaceship!!!
7/20/21
When Jeff and co. made it back down to Earth, social media lit him up for rocking a cowboy hat at the news conference -- so, his concerns about how his crotch looked in the suit might have been warranted.
Haters gonna hate.

Floyd Mayweather Rocks $795 Balmain Ski Boots ... To Miami Heat Game
There's no snow in Miami ... but Floyd Mayweather was ready just in case, rockin' $795 Balmain ski boots to the Heat game!!
The 50-0 boxer -- one of the best ever to enter the ring -- wore the luxury fashion boots courtside while the Miami Heat took on the Phoenix Suns at FTX Arena on Wednesday.
The black and ivory footwear are Balmain waterproof apres-ski boots, made with Polyamide and calfskin.
Mayweather made sure he matched with an oversized Balmain cotton T-shirt featuring the fashion line's monogram print and name across the chest. The shirt costs $650 on the Balmain website.
So, the fit -- not including the diamond watch, bracelets, jeans and cap (which surely go for thousands of dollars) -- costs $1,445!!
Floyd 😂 pic.twitter.com/1hAV3LFWNi

Showing out at basketball games is Floyd's thing -- just a few weeks ago Mayweather sat courtside at the Spurs-Heat game, and the 45-year-old wore a ton of diamond chains around his neck.
They don't call him Money for nothing!

Khloé Kardashian Still Reppin' Kanye West Merch During Kim's Divorce Drama
The obvious tension between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West is having zero impact on Khloé Kardashian's wardrobe choices, as she's still rocking a Ye concert sweatshirt in public.
Khloe was leaving her daughter True's gymnastics class in L.A., decked out in the "Saint Pablo" black hoodie which Ye was hawking during that tour of the same name.
As we've reported, Kim and Kanye's recent divorce has been anything but smooth ... from legal roadblocks attempted by Kanye's team, a bombardment of social media posts attacking Pete Davidson and multiple attempts to win back Kim.
Kanye's latest music video for his song "Eazy" featuring The Game dug deeper into "Skete" Davidson ... featuring a claymation version of Pete being buried alive.
With all of that as a backdrop, Khloe's hoodie seems a bit puzzling. Then again, her ex, Tristan Thompson, was chilling with Ye last week in Miami ... so, seems ALL in-law Kardashian ties are intact no matter what's going on between Kimye.
Kim and Kanye were both pronounced single by a judge on March 2 ... at a hearing where she was present via Zoom. She'd been asking the judge to restore her single status since December, plainly stating, "I very much desire to be divorced."
That being said, her family's not ready to part with Ye's gear.

Kim K Quick Trip in Paris ... What Are Ya, Yellow?!?
Kim Kardashian made a splash in Paris, and then made for a clean getaway -- because she was only in town for about 24 hours before hightailing it outta there.
Check out these photos of her at a PFW event Sunday, where she was draped in a yellow Balenciaga getup that looked like she was wrapped in police caution tape. The show was actually for Balenciaga, so Kim didn't disappoint.
No sign of Pete here ... looks like it was just KK flying solo for this trip -- and it also seems she wasn't eager to stick around.
Not long after attending the show, Kim was already booking it back to her jet ... where it seems she wanted to get back to whatever may be waiting for her across the world -- kids, PD??? Maybe both -- in any case, Kim wasn't in any mood to stay dolled up longer than she needed to.
This appears to be one of the first relatively drama-free weekends she's had to herself in a while -- and that probably has to do with the fact that her divorce is just about wrapped.
Kim was declared a single woman this past week, which is the symbolic nail in the coffin on her relationship with Kanye West ... who's been quiet all through Sunday.

The Champions League Final -- originally scheduled to take place in Russia -- moved to France after the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) stripped Saint Petersburg, Russia of its hosting rights.
FIFA then banned Russia from playing in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar ... the biggest sporting event in the world.
FIFA and UEFA released a joint statement saying, "[we] have today decided together that all Russian teams, whether national representative teams or club teams, shall be suspended from participation in both FIFA and UEFA competitions until further notice."
