Tiffany Haddish stars in New Mob Drama “The Kitchen”

The kitchen has always been known as the room or area where food is prepared and cooked. It’s no secret that amongst the hustlers in the world of narcotics the kitchen is also recognized as a place inside of the “trap” (drug house), where fraternizing and hustling such as gambling, drug manufacturing, etc. takes place. In a new movie titled “The Kitchen”, movie directors give us the flip side of the game.

What happens to the significant others of the men that hustle to feed their families out of those kitchens are incarcerated?

Directors and producers give us an inside look at what the lives of three mobsters wives looked like after they were incarcerated and what those women had to endure to make ends meet while their husband’s are paying their debt back to society. In 1978, the Hell’s Kitchen (New York) housewives were put to the test when they have to bang and slang like the big boys of the Irish Mafia to prove that women really run it…the rackets and the fate of their competition.

The film from New Line Cinema and BRON Creative, is written by Andrea Berloff, who was nominated for an Oscar for the original screenplay for “Straight Outta Compton.” “The Kitchen” stars Tiffany Haddish (“Girls Trip”), Melissa McCarthy (“Bridesmaids”) and Elisabeth Moss (“The Handmaid’s Tale”). Berloff’s screenplay is based on the Vertigo comic book series created by Ollie Masters and Ming Doyle for DC.  It’s set to be released on this Friday, August 9th, 2019.

It’s all about securing the bag in 2019 and Rita Ora is getting to it with a new endorsement deal and a collaboration. Escada has named Ora it’s new brand ambassador and she will appear in the Spring 2019 campaign. Not only is she endorsing Escada, but she’s teaming up with Giuseppe Zanotti to co-design a capsule collection.

With both brands she will contribute elements of her personal style.

Ora’s Heart bag will also star in the campaign, and 15 euors (17.16 U.S. dollars) from the sale of each bag will be donated to Women for Women, a charity that supports women in conflict areas like Kosovo, where Ora was born. The bag will be available online and in stores on March 26 and retails at 1,199 euros (1371.27 U.S. dollars). Giuseppe Zanotti and Rita’s exclusive line will launch on Jan. 24 across select  stores, online, and at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue.

OoohStyle: Wild Thing

 

Clearly, life is still Gucci for Lil Wayne. During last night’s College Football Playoff National Championship halftime show in San Francisco, he decided to throw on quite the ensemble that attracted loads of attention. Social media dragged him for the look comparing him to everyone from the “Hamburgler” to a homeless person. Nonetheless, my attention was caught by the $9,300 Gucci stripe faux fur coat that I was already creating a fashion editorial for weeks ago. Even if you don’t like it, it is undeniable eye-catching.
