Japanese Vogue is sidesteping the recent controversies over too young or too thin models and going straight to animation.

Reuters reports that the June issue will showcase the popular - and fashionable - Hello Kitty wearing items from the fall and winter John Galliano for Dior line.

According to a Reuters report, supermodel Naomi Campbell is considering the option of settling with assault victim Ana Scolavino. Prosecutors claim that Campbell threw her cellphone at Scolavino during a dispute over a pair of blue jeans. Campbell's cellphone hit the victim in the back of the head, opening up a wound that required four staples. It's not clear whether the plea agree will go through, however. Assistant District Attorney Shanda Strain told Judge Evelyn Laporte of the Manhattan Criminal Court, "We are still in the process of working out a possible disposition." If the case isn't settled on or before her next court date on January 16, Campbell could face charges of second-degree assault. Given her prior record, if charged with assault, Campbell could face up to seven years in jail or deportation.

You have to admit, seven years in the big house is definitely going where no model has gone before.

After a ban on her music video, hotel heiress Paris Hilton will soon be making her way into the Indian retail market.

She will visit five Indian cities including Mumbai.
