Worst-Dressed Fashion Critic Hospitalized
As the fashion industry is an enterprise determined by visual appearance, individuals who make their living as its critics can frequently resemble grade-school children, alternatively praising and chastising those who fail to meet their specific standards.
One critic who was particularly harsh in this regard was Richard "Mr. Blackwell," 85. However, his harsh tongue was unable to save him from himself, as his business partner revealed that he has since been sent to the hospital for a "serious illness."
According to Yahoo News.com, his partner did not reveal the nature of his illness or where he was being treated.
Blackwell is known for unveiling a list of worst-dressed celebrities that is known for its sarcasm and "tongue-in-cheek" cruelty. Celebrities who are not regarded as "stylish" by Hollywood's standards can take comfort in knowing that they will not be graded in his absence.
