Check the Shanghai concert topic. No photo of Celine herself carrying the 10 big bags. But there's news, and Celine shopping at the fake item store.

 

Ooh, okay... well, they're just rumours then :) Of couse people want to bring her down...

 

Do you work in the fashion to know all of this??? :o

 

 

Nope, but I study fashion & design, so I'm interrested in it :)

Not rumors.

A spokeswoman for the Shanghai Intellectual Property Administration Office told reporters this week it was "a shame" Céline Dion was spotted shopping in the city's notorious knock-off stores.

Reporters spot her shopping in the fake item shop. She admit she went for shopping herself at the press conference.

That alley is actually a place full of little stores. There is one store that Celine visited that sells lot of brand-name stuff, and lots of famous folks go shop there as well. The article says that since Celine left the place empty handed, people thought that she bought nothing. But then later in the evening, they found 9 bags of stuff were delivered to her hotel.

Yeah, I know about those pics, but we don't actually know that SHE is the one they were purchased for... you know what I mean right? I'm not saying that she's a saint, they could be hers, but I doubt it... why would a woman like her support something that's illegal?

She just bought those for fun. Everybody does that. Victoria Beckham, Paris Hilton...

 

And I'm 100% sure she bought those. I can't tell how do I know it.

If they are I'll be extremely disappointed... and that's not just because it's her LOL, I think it's wrong for anyone to support such things.. even if I couldn't afford (which she obviously does) or didn't want to spend that kind of money on the real thing, I'd never buy replicas... it just screams lack of taste... you pay for quality... I just wouldn't be able to do it...

I'm sorry but that's more than slightly narrow minded. I don't agree with replicas for the sole purpose it generates money to crime but if it wasn't for that...I wouldn't mind anyone buying what looks like the real deal but isn't. Not everyone can afford designer labels (which I find are diculous anyway...the prices are absolutely disgusting - there's people starving in the world and people buy a bag for $6,000? :sick: ) and besides...you might actually "just" like the look of the bag and want it because of that. Buying a replica doesn't mean you want to try to look rich and make people believe you can afford the real thing when you can't. "Lack of taste"...I'm sorry but I find that comment arrogant. It's the same with the "typical" Louis Vuitton bags...those are status symbols only. People go for those brown or white ones because they're "famous" LV designs and easily identified as LV's and show people they have money to afford them. It's rediculous.

well I want to argue with that, cos some fake stuff I bought was even better quality then some real stuff I bought! :whistling:

 

and well about people starving:

 

from perez":

 

The late billionairess hotelier Leona Helmsley (also known as the 'Queen of Mean') left her doggie, Trouble, $12 million when she passed away recently. Yes, MILLION.

 

However, according to new reports, a NYC judge has quietly reduced the pooch's $12 million trust fund to $2 million and signed off on a deal to pay the late billionaire's two disinherited grandchildren $6 million amid allegations that Helmsley wasn't mentally competent when she signed her will.

 

The trustees of Helmsley's estate argued that Trouble doesn't need the full $12 million she was left.

 

The judge gave them permission to place $10 million of the dog's trust into Helmsley's multibillion-dollar charitable foundation.

 

Trouble is currently living in Florida with the general manager of the Helmsley Sandcastle Hotel.

 

The Queen of Mean's will had asked that either her brother or grandson care for the dog, but both passed cause the dog's a notorious biter!

 

How much did THEY get in the will???

 

In an affidavit filed by Trouble's care taker, he says $2 million is more than enough for the dog to live off of, "Two million dollars . . . would be enough money to pay for Trouble's maintenance and welfare at the highest standards of care for more than 10 years, which is more that twice her reasonably anticipated life expectancy."

 

The glorified dog sitter put her annual expenses at $190,000, which includes his $60,000 guardian fee, $100,000 for ’round-the-clock security, $8,000 for grooming, $3,000 for miscellaneous expenses, $1,200 for food and anywhere from $2,500 to $18,000 for medical care.

 

That pooch has it better than a lot of people we know!

 

12 MILLION DOLLARS FOR A DOG??!!! I MEAN GET REAL!!! :evil: if she left the damn dog 1 million he still could have lived better then most of us! and she should have given the rest to the RSPCA!!! :glare:

We're just going to have to agree to disagree "godessceline" :)

 

I don't agree with replicas for the sole purpose it generates money to crime but if it wasn't for that...

But that is the case... and I really don't think that's okay, I think it's morally wrong

 

 

you might actually "just" like the look of the bag and want it because of that. Buying a replica doesn't mean you want to try to look rich and make people believe you can afford the real thing when you can't

1. I never said that all people buying replicas do it to impress others

2. If one likes the look of the bag, why not buy one in another price range? the styles are copied EVERYWHERE, so you can get the desired look without supporting this kind of "criminal activity"

 

 

Not everyone can afford designer labels (which I find are diculous anyway...the prices are absolutely disgusting - there's people starving in the world and people buy a bag for $6,000? :sick:

I know that the ones in this world that want and can afford these items are very very few. I know that most people think the prices are outrageous, and I know that people are starving in this world... But what difference does that make? Is it reasonable to ask the financially stable people to donate their hard earned spare money to some sort of organization? Of course it's generous of people to do so, but no one can take that for granted. ($6000 is an exaggeration btw, if we're talking about the same bags)

 

 

It's the same with the "typical" Louis Vuitton bags...those are status symbols only. People go for those brown or white ones because they're "famous" LV designs and easily identified as LV's and show people they have money to afford them. It's rediculous.

I appreciate LV for it's history, for it's simplicity, for it's craftsmanship, and above all else, it's quality. For me, "status" as got nothing to do with it.. nothing. And I believe Sophoan agrees with me :)

 

 

 

 

 

The old me would have gotten extremely upset with you calling me "narrow minded" and "arrogant", but I'm not. Because I know that it's not true, and so do those who know me :) And what I'm about to say is a first... I am a nice, kind, generous, humble, down to earth person. I'm an ambitious, non-working fashion/design student (on medical leave), don't think I spend my days maxing out credit cards/slowly giving some poor old husband a heart attack. This is a hobby. Is it so wrong for me to like this for the quality and craftsmanship? Is it so wrong for me to think that supporting everything that has to to with counterfeit is horrible? You're entitled to your opinion, why shouldn't I be entitled to mine...

 

 

I do not take that comment to heart, because I do not, in any way, deserve it :) So like I said, we're just going to have to agree to disagree...

Posted

Davey, good for you :) but I'm afriad everyone's not that lucky ;)

 

 

 

 

I think I'm gonna leave this topic and hand it over to someone else... There will undoubtedly come more attacks regarding this subject and my nerves can't take that... so... anyone, feel free.. it's all yours.. I think I'm done here...

I know, but being called arrogant and narrow minded for thinking crime lacks taste... that just sucked the fun right out of it... what's the point? The reason I did this was cause I thought it might be fun for others, but this just.. ugh.. not fun anymore...
Posted

no you're right :glare: that's just so ignorant and stupid! :glare: I agree with you on the fakes too... because of illegal making of cds and downloading, my hobby: collection real cds and singles, has no future, as the single will die a silent death within the next 5 years :( It makes me mad if people (especially here) don't buy orginal cds from céline :(

 

but like I said... take a rest :flowers:
