Many sides of Moss

MOSS
W magazine has devoted 40 pages of its September issue to Kate Moss, heralding the supermodel's return to American magazines after the birth of her child.

The 1990s "It" girl, whose trademark waiflike frame is more shapely these days, portrays a nude bride, explores her boyish side in baggy jeans and a trucker hat, and even flips burgers in a fantasy-world "McDonald's." Artists Lucian Freud, Takashi Murakami and Alex Katz also give their take on Moss' iconic image.


Wanna be a co-host?

"Exposed," a new MTV-style magazine show produced locally by Kinetic Productions, is about ready to "unleash the lives, lifestyles and culture of Hawai'i to the masses."

All it needs is the right guy to co-host.

Producers are looking for a male, age 21 to 27, with mucho spunk and zilcho inhibitions. The show begins production at the end of the month and will be aired locally.

Auditions will be held 7 p.m. to midnight tomorrow at the Beach House, at Pier 7 behind the Maritime Museum. To set up an appointment, call 597-8598 or e-mail exposedtv@yahoo.com.


Inside TV dinners

The long wait is over: Gourmet magazine has published an article on TV dinners.

The article, by veteran TV critic Judith Crist, doesn't reveal the secret recipes of these delicacies. It simply recounts their illustrious history, which began 50 years ago as a clever way for Swanson to get rid of 520,000 extra pounds of turkey it had stored in refrigerated railroad cars. The dinners caught on and soon Swanson was selling 25 million of them annually.

Crist's article is part of Gourmet's special issue on "Food and Television." The heart of the issue is a series of recipes that try to approximate the food cooked on classic episodes of your favorite TV shows.

There are recipes for chili á la "The Cosby Show," pork chops á la "The Brady Bunch" and pan-fried trout á la "The Andy Griffith Show."
