The Headwear Association (what?) has named Lady Gaga, Victoria Beckham, LL Cool J, and Kid Rock as the latest inductees into their prestigious Hall of Fame. Apparently, they have all made extensive “contributions to the art of the hat.” Huh?
Even though I have never heard of the Headwear Association, it has apparently been around for 103 years, and honors six people annually. The other two were the deceased Marlene Dietrich and Fred Astaire, who are responsible for making hats into iconic props. Crucial, iconic props.
A representative from the association stated: “The six chosen to be inducted into the Headwear Hall of Fame are all known for frequently wearing hats and have all had a positive impact on the evolution and popularity of headwear fashions.” I didn’t realize Gaga’s meat hat had such a “positive impact.” Kate Middleton is likely pissed over her snub.
Regardless, what you should take away from this news is that if there’s any four people who would want at your fantasy dinner party, it is in fact Gaga, Posh, Cool J, and the one and only Kid Rock.
Seriously, can you imagine? Kid would be talking about motorboating Pamela Anderson, and Posh would be fiddling with the clasp on her alligator Birkin bag.
Sigh — a girl can dream!
