Dead Mouse Brooches
Brooches featuring a dead rodent are currently all the rage in New York, and it appears the craze has reached the UK. Rocker Pete Doherty recently presented ex-fiancee Kate Moss with a dead mouse brooch, and Courtney Love recently gave one to her friend Jason Preston, who is dating fashion designer Marc Jacobs, 44, and he has been spotted around Manhattan wearing it.
“Some people might find it disgusting but it’s still art, if in its extreme sense,” says a fashion insider. “Nobody baulks when Damien Hirst puts a shark in formaldehyde and this is very similar.”
“It’s become the latest outlandish fashion statement in Manhattan but Pete is trying to emphasise how he feels without Kate – defeated, crushed and broken, like the dead animal.”

Idiots. Complete and utter idiots. Remember the episode of Saved By the Bell where there’s a dream sequence where Kelly wears a pizza on her head, but it’s cool because she does it? Hah, I can not believe how true that is… these people aren’t cool to begin with, which makes it all the more ridiculous.
