Lindsay Lohan & KAWS Cover Complex

Monday, July 19th, 2010

Lindsay’s been on a rampage lately. So much so that after shooting this cover, she never even bothered to show up for the interview that was supposed to accompany it.

Rappers might be on that rock shit, but Linsay Lohan is on that rap shit. Flaking on interviews? Check. Unrepentant bad behaviour? Check. Gully enough to ignore a bench warrant, come back from Europe for a legal hearing, and have her court-supplied alcohol bracelet go off at the MTV Movie Awards? Check and mate. She’s Weezy, Yeezy, and motherfucking Jeezy all in one. Who else would choose her comeback vehicles to be Robert Rodriguez’s Machete and the Linda Lovelace biopic, Inferno? That’s gully on both counts. She may have been a Disney ingenue, but about five years ago she took a hard left, and we’ve been loving her for it—movies or no movies. So yea we’ve been angling to get her on the cover for a minute now. And when it happened? We’re about to remind people that they’ve been underestimating Lindsay. We’re about to ride out together, Bonnie and Clyde style. But some funny things happend on the way to making magic—and they reminded us that Lilo’s not lost, she’s just trying to hide from the vultures.

Oh well, I’m sure most of Complex’s demo would rather oggle her KAWS enhanced photos than read what she has to say anyway.

After the jump, check out some behind the scenes video from the shoot.

Erykah Badu’s VIBE Cover (June/July)

Friday, June 4th, 2010

That’s a dope ass cover though. Funny how you can see far less of Erykah, yet somehow her cover is sexier than Nicki’s. #Noshots Nicki baby, you know I love you.

A couple of excerpts from the story:

On her “Window Seat” video:

“I look at some other videos. i’m not naming names, because I don’t want that to be mentioned. There is the thing with sexuality. I’m naked for 13 seconds, and these people are naked the whole time and gyrating and saying come “lick on my lollipop,” and “suck on my cinnamon roll,” and, you know, suggesting sex. People are uncomfortable with sexuality that’s not for male consumption. could be ‘cause I did it in public too. Do you think people would have been complaining if I had on high-heel shoes?”

On her better half:

“I am a big fan and a supporter of [Jay Electronica's] evolution and growth as an artist. I write all his rhymes. I’m joking. [laughs.] I’m always amazed and impressed with the things he comes up with. He definitely does what a partner is supposed to do, that is, evolve you.”
