Blonde ambition

Leave a comment

“I am so fab! Check out I’m blonde, I’m skinny, I’m rich,
and I’m a little bit of a bitch” – Lady Gaga Donatella

We all know the old saying “blondes are dumb” or, following up with, “blondes have more fun”. Yet this stereotypes are nowhere close to the truth and lately it seems that “blonde” is a matter of style and attitude rather than anything else.

Last year, the blonde ambition trend flooded the world and appears to be going nowhere. What does blonde stand for anyway? Gentlemen Prefer blondes?
Nah. But it surely does make a statement.

Since we have made some progress in the hair care industry, we can pretty much without compunctions change the color of our locks anytime and all the time. Surely, there are many celebrities, from models to singers all over the world, who have decided to abandon their natural shade for the fair one inspiring their fans to follow-up; is blonde turning into subculture itself? Perhaps.

The topic of discussion lately isn’t anyone else but the one who broke the internet – the business woman, mother and lately an uprising fashion icon Kim Kardashian.

 Kim showed her new look off in the first row of Balmain fashion show stealing a lot of attention. However she was not the only one to shock the world with their change of appearance; the actor turned rock star Jared Leto.

Both looking quite stunning, don’t you think? Both definitely standing out. What do you think then? Do you dare to stand out? Do you have the blonde ambition?

Bold statement, and no; it is not my idea. The catchy line is from Skrillex‘s music video featuring Korean idols; Big Bang‘s G-Dragon and 2ne1‘s CL. Both signed up under the same agency as the Korean mega-star PSY who took over the world’s hitparades with just one song. But not to turn this to be about him (even though his songs are amazing) this is about the upcoming star in the U.S. – CL.

Being a member of a k-pop girl group 2NE1, CL already has established huge fan base in Asia. Now, she wants to share her unique ambience with the American market. With the Scooter Braun‘s help, she will (fingers-crossed) conquer the hitparades the same PSY before her. CL, born Lee Chaerin in 1991, has already released a succefull single titled The Baddest Female in summer 2013 (watch below).

Obviously, she has it all and the title is self-explanatory. The beat makes you dance, lyrics force you to sing along to “Nan nappeun gijibae” and we only get to admire the whole attire in the MV. CL wears it all effortesly, from street style Nasir Mazhar, Jeremy Scott to the urban chic Guiseppe Zanotti shoes. All combined in a way she is known for – a fashionista. With her interest in fashion and natural vibe which makes her stand out, she has made a great deal of friends in the fashion industry. From models to designers, CL fits in perfectly. Also, her natural confidence and beauty has captured Maybelline Korea making her the face of the brand.

Moreover, she is just a #GIRLBOSS to look up to. Fierce, not being afraid to stand out. Being a role model for people across the globe, myself included, for she speaks to them trough 2NE1’s music. Now, she is about to make a name for herself – breaking the sweet, shy and quiet asian girl stereotype.

The new phenomenon we will have a crush on. CL The Baddest Female. The queen #GZB (gizibe)

Complex Magazine has just released a nice interview with her, so check her out and let’s hope she will show the world what girls are capable of!
