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.

Sandra Bullock is ready to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show after a record-breaking year in the film industry. Star of The Blind Side, The Proposal, and All About Steve in 2009 brought her two Golden Globe nominations; a winning night at the People’s Choice Awards for favorite actress for her role in The Proposal, which also won favorite comedy; and a record-breaker. Sandra’s well-acclaimed film The Blind Side became the first movie in history to pass the $200 million mark in box office sales with only one top-earning female actor. In its seventh week and counting, the film earned $208.5 million at the box office.

The 45-year-old actress announced that she will take a break from “open[ing] anything and read [ing] anything right now.” She continued to say that she loves to drink “a nice cup of coffee in the morning at 6:30, watching the sun come up. I have a really blessed life.” In order to reward herself for her outstanding work this year, we suggest that Sandra Bullock should purchase natural sapphire jewelry, such as these gorgeous blue natural sapphire and diamond earrings, from The Natural Sapphire Company.
