Daisy Lowe Moves to Williamsburg

Model Daisy Lowe, spawn of Bush-frontman Gavin Rossdale and designer Pearl Lowe, had been living in the East Village right under our very noses. She just told W Magazine that she left the neighborhood after not making any friends, however, and headed over the bridge to Williamsburg, where they embraced her so much that now she has like 40 friends. She said, "I found that I could breathe a bit more out here. Also, I really didn't make that many friends when I was in the city, and after a year of being quite alone in New York, I immediately found a circle of friends in Brooklyn that were all on the same path." Her path allegedly includes some form of shoe art; she says she, "took a huge painting in our apartment and stuck some sunglasses and cute Chanel heels to it." She also loves taking photos on Coney Island, and once made shoes spell out "love" for some reason. Give this girl a scholarship to the Williamsburg Waterfront School of Superficial Hipster Art! And there are others on this path? She says her big bunch of new friends include musicians, artists, moviemakers, actors, models, her boyfriend Will Cameron (pictured with his lady love) and, you know, the usual creative types/celeb spawn hangers-on.

Divine Moving

It seems that a lot of people are moving out of Manhattan and into Brooklyn's Williamsburg area. In the past we had 20% of the moves in to Brooklyn now it stands on 35% and raising... (http://www.divinemoving.com)

How do I get to be one of their hangers-on?

I promise not to let you be a heath ledger.

If one of those boys slips out, she'll be residing in two boroughs.

Barbj8

Oh My God! I take pictures on Coney Island too!

aspiringrapper

Classy. Yet, she'll probably set a higher standard for the neighborhood by moving there.

longacre

Should have kept her dad's name so people would know who she is.

nicemarmot

Horrifying as it is that I know this....(way too much Daily Mail), she didn't know he was her father until just a few years ago. Her mom is kinda a ho.

KiljoyWasHere

Snark overload.

blondeinthecity

Who is this hipster and why should i care that shes friendless?

ANGRYGOD11

I don't care either. I don't know who she is. But, has Manhattan life become so dead a pretty, rich, young model can't find a life anymore?

hotstepper

she has boobs, a trustfund, a lazy eye, and an extra long tongue. any questions?

jaycjay

Meh. Judging from a Google image search, the big trust fund is the only thing that makes her stand out at all from any random woman I might meet in Williamsburg.

Kojak

Works for me. She is forgiven for her Hipster ways.

To complete the comment trifecta:

It's never ON Coney Island. It's IN Coney Island.

Jeez. How long have you been here anyway, Carlson?

ANGRYGOD11

You might be correct if you, and just about everyone, refers to it as a neighborhood. But, usually the living are ON an island and the buried dead are IN an island.

Not sure about the living dead: Stuck on Staten Island?
