Kate Moss is the best hat wearer ever

In the most pointless story of the week, Kate Moss has been named Britain’s best hat wearer by a consortium of weirdos aimed at promoting hat wearing. A spokesman for the consortium says:

“Kate manages to wear the most elaborate and extravagant millinery designs with great confidence and aplomb and, most importantly, without the hat seemingly wearing her. She has the face to launch a thousand hat collections and has done much to promote hat wearing in recent years.”

And because I laugh in the face of ridiculous associations for ridiculous causes, here are some shots of Kate Moss leaving Miyama restaurant not wearing a hat, including a closeup of her engagement ring. A ring so laughably small it’s often confused with Paris Hilton’s brain.

    Looks more like a ring pull.

    I think my hat is waaaay more interesting in #32. Just sayin’.

    “She has the face to launch a thousand hat collections”

    This is the most utterly inane and shallow compliment anyone has ever given in the history of humankind.

    #32. Thank you for that picture of Kate’s best hat – that made me laugh a lot (but then I do consider myself a fan of your artwork)

    In other unrelated news “taking the piss” is a very common expression in the world outside the US and I have to stop myself from saying it nearly every time I post on the Superfish. Oh, the burden of being British.

    oh and #7. She probably didn’t get it at Walmart seeing as we don’t have them here. (one of the perks of being British). Try Tesco, it’s a Tesco Value Ring.

    #53 – it is a splendid hat. Could it not have a bobble, though?

    How is it that unbrushed hair, grubby nails, fag breath, coke skin and grey teeth = supermodel? And she has bandy legs.

    She’s like The Emperor’s New Whore. There’s some serious mind-over-matter-y goin on here!

    #53 — that is a great hat! Perhaps the best hat ever. Where can I get myself one?

  7. jane's eyre

    Thanks all. I was feeling so unappreciated. I was like, dammit, I spent ALL that time perfecting that masterpiece on Paintbrush, and I don’t get a single hardee-har-har? You have restored my faith in mankind’s ability to appreciate “the funny”.

    Can a plastic bag be considered a hat? If so, I’d like to see one over her head.

    Jane–The Hat Consortium should name you Designer of the Year!!

    Whatev. Take that $16,000 dollar outfit off her and she looks just like one of the battered wives and junkies smoking cigarettes on the front steps of the woman’s shelter I walk by every morning on my way to work.

    #31 In Europe it’s the other way around. Women often wear engagment and wedding rings on their right hand ring finger.

    Whenever I travel I always remember to change my ring over to my left hand to alert the nice European men as to the my singledom.

    # 31, 23: I have never bothered to post here before, but I often skim through other’s comments, and have been known to thoroughly distract my office mates with snickers and yelps. On the occasion when someone is offensive, I don’t bother getting riled up, because everyone can see how pathetic racism/sexism/homophobia is. But Jane’s Eyre, your mockery of women who chose to value themselves for themselves, rather than as potential mates, is a tragic form of degredation that is far too often accepted even by those people who claim not to be sexist. I don’t know if you just taking a cheap (and failed) attempt at humour, but comments like those are why so many beautiful, intelligent, loving women end up puking their guts out or blowing their brains out over whether or not they can “get” a man, even if he is arrogant, ignorant, unkempt, disrespectful, boring, or just plain mean. Or, as you say “fat and ugly.” How desperate are you that you need to affirm your own worth by using this deranged mentality to spit on the most senselessly self-loathing women? You couldn’t be any grosser if you were fat and ugly too. And don’t even get me started about what a winner your partner must be for having scored you…

    Yo, Grumpy Gus!

    I don’t affirm my self-worth by purchasing a couple hundred dollar piece of shit at Zales. I just buy a new sports car.

    Those stupid “right hand ring” commercials are aimed at women who are single and have disposable income to purchase their gaudy shit. Doesn’t have anything to do with self-worth. It’s simple math. Poor, single, lonely Jane Doe can’t afford a spankin’ new BMW, so she runs to the mall and picks up a 14K gold piece o’ crap to make her pathetic life seem a little more bright.

  14. commissioner

    So, take your disposable income and go buy yourself a sense of humor.

  15. He must’ve bought that ring with all the royalties from the last Libertines album.

    I always find it hilarious when someone pops in the “you are so jealous/ugly/fat” comment if someone doesn’t like the way a person looks or behaves. really, that’s an amazing deduction, wish I could come up with THAT! NOT! believe it or not #37, there are people in this world who aren’t jealous/fat/ugly and think that kate is a skank, but I understand that lack of maturity somehow clouds one’s judgement and makes them stamp their feet like a petulant child wahhhing about how jealous/ugly/fat people are…seriously, it also leads me to believe that you must somehow look like the she-skank crack ho, otherwise you wouldn’t be so nasty and defensive about it.

    in kate’s defense, when I was living in Europe, I found that many women (and some men) wore very tiny rings like the one she is sporting, and they were very obviously wealthy people…maybe they aren’t caught up in the notion that the gem must be the size of texas to be impressive…gold is a whole lot cheaper there than it is here, as well as diamonds, at least where I was living and/or visited, not to mention that 18k is the standard there…anyway, maybe she likes understated jewelery for everyday use. who knows, but i don’t really see anything wrong with it myself….now, call me jealous, fat and ugly, but I do see something wrong with her butt ugly face and rail-thin body, and as thin as she is, she’s got cellulite working on that right leg…she must be fat!

    #65- I wasn’t responding to the fact that janeseyre was making fun of women for buying those rings, I was enraged at the reason’s he assumed they “needed” to do it.

    And, although I don’t know why I am bothering to point this out, I doubt I’d check in to this site regularly and laugh out loud unless I thought it was funny- wait, finding stuff funny= having a sense of humour, right? I just didn’t find that lameass funny because.he.wasn’t.

    Do you laugh at everyone who think’s that they’re funny? Wow, I thought that was just my senile grandma.

  18. jrzmommy

    I call diamond rings that women buy for themselves “Nobody Loves Me Like I Love Me” rings.

  19. Amy3000

    Thats not a ring..its a coke baggie

  20. wow, those guys are weirdos
