Style Buzz Being shown only in France, the print ads and TV commercials for the denim company’s campaign, “We Are Animals,” are being called misogynistic and obnoxious. Hey, you know what they say: nothing sells a pair of jeans like implied rape.
Culture Buzz “There are 8,000 nerve endings in the clitoris and this son of a bitch couldn’t find one of them.” Did your ears perk up? The publicists behind J.J. Salem’s Tan Lines sure hope so. They even put together a video of a bunch of randoms reading the line out loud, because nothing is funnier than realizing that most people are barely literate.
Culture Buzz A guerrilla artist in London has been removing the heads from ads and replacing them with bloody stumps. This act of ‘subvertising’ is putting a gruesome spin on ads for Sex and the City and Uniqlo, among others. Nothing says subversive like splattered blood.
Style Buzz Eva Mendes will be the spokesperson for the new Calvin Klein underwear line. A departure from ’90s Calvin Klein aesthetic represented by waifs like Kate Moss, the “Seductive Comfort” line caters to buxom voluptuous women. Read: Bras for women with actual boobs.
TV Buzz Once again, violent antics and broad stereotypes win the day.

Here’s a roundup of what you missed while replenishing your snacks.
