Punk hit back after Chris Brown had tweeted: “He’s such a leader! Not to mention the roids hes on has made it utterly impossible for him pleasure a women.” Breezy sent out the tweet in response to CM Punk’s dig on the social network, which read:  “I would like to see @chrisbrown fight somebody that can defend themselves. Mecurb stomping that turd would be a #wrestlemania moment.” In the video statement, the WWE Champ is visibly offended and perturbed at Chris Brown’s allegations and stated that he had never touched drugs in his life. He said: ” I am a life long proud drug free straight edge individual, so Chris and I come from two completely different worlds. “I don’t have a manager, I don’t have a body guard, I don’t need a body guard, I have no need for a PR team to tell me what to tweet and when to delete tweets, and I don’t hit women.

<p>Punk hit back after Chris Brown had tweeted: “He’s such a leader! Not to mention the roids hes on has made it utterly impossible for him pleasure a women.”</p>
<p>Breezy sent out the tweet in response to CM Punk’s dig on the social network, which read:  “I would like to see @chrisbrown fight somebody that can defend themselves. Mecurb stomping that turd would be a #wrestlemania moment.”</p>
<p>In the video statement, the WWE Champ is visibly offended and perturbed at Chris Brown’s allegations and stated that he had never touched drugs in his life.</p>
<p>He said: ” I am a life long proud drug free straight edge individual, so Chris and I come from two completely different worlds.</p>
<p>“I don’t have a manager, I don’t have a body guard, I don’t need a body guard, I have no need for a PR team to tell me what to tweet and when to delete tweets, and I don’t hit women. Period.”</p>
<p>Punk then went on to say that he felt Chris Brown had never really paid for what he had done to Rihanna.</p>
<p>“Picking up trash on the side of a highway does not make amends for repeatedly striking a woman who to her face and send her to a hospital.”</p>
<p>The WWE star then challenged Breezy to get in the ring and fight him in a charity match, before describing how he would physically hurt the R&amp;B singer.</p>
<p>“I will choke you out and I will make you feel as weak and as powerless and scared and alone as any woman who has the misfortune of knowing a sad cowardly little boy such as yourself.”</p>
<p>So the ball is now heavily in Chris Brown’s court.</p>

Supplying healthy meals on fittings, professional help for those struggling with eating disorders and checking IDs to ensure models are over 16 pre-shows were just some of the items on the modelling check list. But it seems this last one has already been forgotten. Less than two weeks after the list was released, top designer Marc Jacobs has sent two underage models down his autumn/winter 2012 catwalk on Monday, February 13. Brazilian model Thairina Garcia and star of the winter 2011 Prada campaign, Ondira Hardin, both took to the catwalk despite the fact that they are both, reportedly, 14 years-old.

Pre-New York Fashion Week, chairman of the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America), Diane von Furstenberg, released an exhaustive list of guidelines aimed at keeping models fit. Supplying healthy meals on fittings, professional help for those struggling with eating disorders and checking IDs to ensure models are over 16 pre-shows were just some of the items on the modelling check list. But it seems this last one has already been forgotten.</p>
<p>Less than two weeks after the list was released, top designer Marc Jacobs has sent two underage models down his autumn/winter 2012 catwalk on Monday, February 13.</p>
<p>Brazilian model Thairina Garcia and star of the winter 2011 Prada campaign, Ondira Hardin, both took to the catwalk despite the fact that they are both, reportedly, 14 years-old.</p>
<p>Far from being apologetic, Jacobs has defended his choice of models, insisting that the CFDA&#8217;s Health Initiative cannot influence his shows: &#8220;I do the show the way I think it should be and not the way somebody tells me it should be,&#8221; he told the New York Times .</p>
<p>&#8220;If their parents are willing to let them do a show, I don&#8217;t see any reason that it should be me who tells them that they can&#8217;t,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;There are children actors and children models for catalogues and stuff, so I guess if a parent thinks it&#8217;s ok and a kid wants to do it, it&#8217;s fine.&#8221;</p>
<p>The comments are the latest in a debate that began when a group of female MPs, led by Liberal Democrat MP Jo Swinson, announced that they wanted young models to have similar rights to child actors and actresses, namely chaperones to take them to shoots and shows.</p>

You&#8217;re thinking: who is that model? If the name Adam Senn doesn&#8217;t ring any bells, it soon will: he is now the face of Dolce &#38; Gabbana&#8217;s new men&#8217;s perfume, The One Sport. However at the age of 27 Senn is already a bit of a veteran in the fashion business.  He starred in Gucci&#8217;s controversial campaign which featured a model sporting a pre- TOWIE vajazzle of sorts: a &#8220;G&#8221; shaved into her pubic hair.
