In Entertainment: Yeezy Gap, H.E.R. as Belle, Premios Juventud

Welcome back to Between Bells. I'm Asia Celestino in Los Angeles with my co host baker machado in new york and Kanye West. Yeezy Gap engineered by balenciaga line now available to purchase in person for the first time. You can check it out at a special pop up inside gaps new york city flagship store in Times Square. As you can see classic Classic gap silhouettes have been Kanye ified. The collection ranges from $60 for baseball caps to $400 for puffer jackets. And if you can't make it over to Times Square like myself or if it's all sold out, that's okay because the collection is available for purchase on the Easy Gap and balenciaga Web stores baker, we're gonna talk about this one. Are you getting your hands on a Easy Gap sweatshirt And those photos we just showed from social media. The lines incredibly long. You have, you have these expensive like $100 shirts just like thrown out all over the table and you just have people like going bananas to try to stank some of it. When you look at some of the products and we had a graphic of what some of the products look like. I mean they look like normal Gap clothes. I don't think there's any sort of resemblance or things that would identify them as Kanye sort of things. I mean yes, they look kind of interesting but what I want to pay $240 for a dove shrunken hoodie, $160 for a dove fleece T. He has $220 cargo pants Um the puffer jacket that you mentioned, $340. I mean I guess we can expect all of these to sell out, but this is good for Gap. They know that this is going just like Adidas, they know these things have a huge audience that they're going to be selling out. I was gonna say, I never thought I would see the day when we saw Gap clothing priced at this level and it's almost disrespectful. It's like giving warehouse bargain sale, which I'm okay with but not at this price point. I will say though this kind of highlights the fact that people will pay not only for the material product, but they're really paying for like the cultural currency and the status symbol that comes along with this marketing, which is at the end of the day, really genius from Kanye West because you can only imagine the margins on this are probably astronaut. I mean this is like this is Supreme two point oh think of like the whole allure about Supreme every time I'm walking through Manhattan and I'm like where is there a giant line. Oh it's supreme! Supreme is here. That's what's going on. All right. Meanwhile, let's talk about some big news here with abc is live action Beauty and the Beast. Their 30th anniversary special has found their Bell. The singer her is set to play the Disney Princess the artist saying in a statement quote, I can't believe I get to be a part of the Beauty and the Beast legacy. The world will get to see a black and Filipino. Bell now filmmaker Jon M chu is executive producing the special and Hamish Hamilton's who's worked on the Super Bowl halftime show and the Oscars is going to direct this Beauty and the Beast is getting the live treatment at abc that to celebrate the 30th anniversary of its historic Academy Award nomination for Best Picture. Yeah, the 1991 film was the first animated feature ever to receive the honor. This special gonna be available to stream december the 16th on Disney Plus as well. I love this casting and this was a casting, I was not expecting whatsoever. I think she is so cool. She like radiates cool because of her glasses and everything. And I think that might be the big question, does Bell wear glasses during this thing? Which would be amazing. So now we just figure out who the cast is the Beast, Maybe Gaston, which I'm totally fine with as well. So I'll send my demo tape in, but I'm totally into this. I know I'm so excited for this and I was thinking about it too because the casting seemed like it came kind of from left field. But if you think back to 1991 and the initial version of beauty and the beast first performed by Celine Dion go back and listen to it on YouTube because it is such an R&B ballad, which I think is perfect for her. So it's going to be really exciting. She's a producer on this production. She's also making her acting debut in the color purple, I believe next year. So she has so much on the horizon and I think this is going to be incredible love Jon m chu Hamish also known for like everything in the world. So it'll probably be good. Absolutely. And look, she's got Grammys, so who knows, maybe an Emmy is in her future here soon. Watch out jennifer Hudson, she's coming for you. Yeah. And meanwhile, one of the summer's biggest celebrations is back, Univision's Premios juventud has announced its star studded lineup of performers from latin pop to regional mexican music. The star is set to perform represent diversity of latin music and culture and this year marks an exciting change for the event.
