British fashion designer Lee Alexander McQueen was found dead today, February 11, 2010, at his home in London, England. He was 40 years old and was known for his outrageous and over-the-top designs. In 2003, Queen Elizabeth II made him Commander of the British Empire for his fashion leadership. Concerning his death, the Associated Press reported that the circumstances indicated a possible suicide due to the recent death of his mother on February 2nd, but Scotland Yard have not confirmed the aforementioned statement.

The following statement was posted by the Alexander McQueen Office, Official Website:

“On behalf of Lee McQueen’s family, Alexander McQueen today announces the tragic news that Lee McQueen, the founder and designer of the Alexander McQueen brand has been found dead at his home. At this stage it is inappropriate to comment on this tragic news beyond saying that we are devastated and are sharing a sense of shock and grief with Lee’s family.

Lee’s family has asked for privacy in order to come to terms with this terrible news and we hope the media will respect this.”

Celebrities including Madonna, Sarah Jessica Parker, Sandra Bullock, Tyra Banks, Kim Kardashian, and many others have paid tribute to the late Alexander McQueen today. Fashion icons saluted McQueen as well including Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue, Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld, Victoria Beckham, and models Kate Moss, Heidi Klum, and Naomi Campbell.

We suggest that celebrities and fashion icons should purchase gorgeous, custom pieces of natural sapphire jewelry from The Natural Sapphire Company and place them in some of McQueen’s luxury fashion stores in order to commemorate the phenomenal fashion designer.

The homes of the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch were search warranted by police this weekend. According to E! News, police recovered over $2 million in celebrity treasures including:

• a Cartier watch with diamonds
• a Montblanc watch
• countless gold, silver, diamond and sapphire rings, necklaces and earrings
• wedding band sets
• a bag of loose diamonds totaling 42.94 karats
• an Apple laptop
• a BlackBerry and an LG cell phone
• handbags from Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Hermès
• True Religion jeans
• Paris Hilton-branded perfume (wonder whose residence that came from?)
• Gucci eyeglasses
• Chanel perfume

Cops also found a Mexican passport, a Washington State drivers’ license, weapons, ammunition, and drugs at the home of 27-year-old Jonathan “Johnny” Ajar, a leader of the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch. Other young adults participated in these celebrity thefts including Nicholas Prugo, 18, who is facing seven counts of residential burglary for his role as the alleged ringleader of the “bunch”. Fellow suspects Alexis Neiers, 18, Roy Lopez Jr., 27, and Courtney Leigh Ames, 18, are each facing one count of residential burglary, while Diana Tamayo, 19, faces two.

These expensive stolen objects belonged to Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Rachel Bilson, Audrina Patridge, Ashley Tisdale, and Brian Austin Green. Many celebrities purchase natural sapphire and diamond jewelry for themselves and we suggest that one should not steal from others, yet one should purchase their own beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces from The Natural Sapphire Company.

On Sunday, October 18, 2009 in Hollywood, CA at 3:45 A.M., Stephanie Pratt of MTV’s The Hills was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, also known as DUI. Stephanie was leaving Holly Montag’s 26th birthday party. The 23-year old reality TV star was taken to Van Nuys jail and was charged with a misdemenaor. She was released only a few hours later, at 10:00 A.M. after posting $5,000 bail.

After partying in Empire nightclub, the celebration was moved to Beso at 2:00 A.M. After an hour, the group parted ways and Pratt took off in her own car. According to a source of TMZ.com, LAPD watched Stephanie get in her car and were waiting to bust her. According to E! News, Pratt said, “I got bad news this morning. A friend passed away in a car accident, so everyone needs to drive safe.” Pratt added that she would like to leave The Hills after 10 more episodes, stating, “I don’t know how much more I can take of The Hills…The Hills is very brutal.”

We suggest that a beautiful, pink natural sapphire necklace from The Natural Sapphire Company would make a great rebound from her problems.
