Exes that are taking it way too far. Honestly, I would love to be on that group chat. Like, is this something that Emma's like, oh my God, ew. Or is she like... And how much is too much to pay for a haircut? 200k. 200k. 200k. Make sure you're subscribed and let's get into the podcast. Hello and welcome back to the LuxGen Group Chat. I'm India and today I'm joined by Lola and Anna. Hi. Five minutes ago, Anna was singing into the mic because she wanted to sing a LuxGen Group Chat song.

1:11I just feel like every time I have the microphone in front of me, I just want to break out into a song. And what song is it? Hello. It's us. Cut the cameras. Cut the cameras. Shall we get straight into outfits? Lola, what are you wearing today? Guys, I've gone quite rogue with my outfit today. You're looking amazing. Thanks, guys. I'm trying something new. And I feel, you know, when everyone's like, you can hear everyone shouting, they chant in unison. You're wearing that hat for the first time. So I'm wearing this hat for the first time. It's from Kangol, but I actually got it at Shoe, which I was just telling them.

1:45And you can get like this really cool beige color, but I didn't have it in my size. But you have a head size? Yeah, it's medium. I didn't know that. Mine could probably be large. These braids are thick. I didn't know if you could like your head was measured Girl I was inspired off of you on this hat What size is yours? I thought it was just a one size fits all but I guess people do have different head sizes Yeah But is it really that significantly different? Like is it small, medium, large? Yeah like I could not get small on my big old head Oh I see You've got one Anna actually was the reason why I got this hat I actually also want to get one and Anna is the reason I want to get one I got a message from Lola and work yesterday she was like should I?

2:23and it was like a picture and I was like yes you should I was like should I boost so hat Massimo duty like sheer top I love that it's like a funnel but gotta be careful of this makeup it's not like the most perfect summer top it's so comfortable because it's still it's like sheer enough and thin enough you can wear with like it's hot but then it's a bit chillier you still got like the funnel to keep me warm I love it and it's also quite balloony yes really flowy yeah and at the bottom is cinch so if I had like a little skirt on or something it's perfect I prefer. Pull and bear wide leg trousers that are pleated.

2:57You can't really see them as I'm sat down. Pull and bear are killing it at the moment. They are killing the game. I actually mentioned these on the pod before. I'm obsessed with that. I get so many compliments on them. Yeah, they're so good. They're so cheap as well. Dumps and matter socks and lounge little loafers. I love them. I love the clothes. Yeah, we did a shoot with them. So, so nice. They've got great shoes. Love that. Yeah, so that's my fit. Me, I'm wearing, it could all be ASOS to be honest with you. I'm an ASOS girl through and through, as we all know. Blue light glasses are reclaimed vintage actually on ASOS.

3:29On ASOS, nice. Yeah, they have some really, really great glasses, both sunglasses and blue light. And I just love like the aviator style frame. Yeah, you suit that so well. Thanks, I just love a pair of glasses. Your glasses game is strong. Thanks, I do pride myself on my strong glasses game. And then my funnel neck jacket is also ASOS. I love it, the neck. I know, and you can make it desirable to how you want it. Like tight and wish you wanted. They have little toggles that you can make a bit loose, a bit tighter. That's clever. If you've got an overstimmy day. Yeah. Oh, you've got a big jump run underneath.

4:04Yes. Love. And then my skirt is also ASOS, and my shoes are M &S. I've never seen the shoes. M &S? Yeah. They are so comfortable. They're so padded. I love them. M &S is killing it. They really are. And your nails. We were just talking about Anna's nails because her hands are two different colors. Yeah. And I think they're so cool. I know. Ellie realized the same thing today, that they were two different. I didn't notice either. I've had these on for like two weeks, guys. Oh. Actually, I did notice. That's a lie. Okay. You always have such good nails on that I'm like, I just trust. Anna's nail game.

4:35I know. You know, there was a time in my life, I think it was, COVID was the first time in honesty about four years where I had no acrylics on. So consistently for four years, I had acrylics on my nails. How do your nails stay so strong? They don't. Okay, well. They don't. I actually think I'm the last person on planet Earth who still gets acrylic nails. I think so too. No one gets acrylic nails anymore. I go in and they're like dusting the dust off the acrylic nails. What are you wearing? I'm wearing a three people bomber. It's like suede, leather, felt, a bit of everything. I've got an Acti Studios shirt on.

5:10Okay. But I got it thrifted in a Notting Hill vintage store. It's like so unassuming. That's cool. Just buying Notting Hill Gate for like 40 pounds when the retail should have probably been like a couple hundred. You know all the good spots. You do. You're a cool girl. Follow me, guys. I've got my Tommy Hilfiger jeans on and then my Isabel Maroons, which apparently are controversial, but I love them. Really? I love it. People don't like the wedge sneaker. No, I'm here for it. I think LGs love it. I think. Yeah, Gen Zs love it. Millennials might not. No, but it's millennials brought it. I know, but I think that's why.

5:42I think we're seeing it as like a cool like kind of like old ex-model like off-duty bag and they're seeing it as leggings dance class I used to wear those down the shops do you know what I mean okay yeah no affairs I see that you rock them thank you guys thank you okay before we get into the rest of the pod please remember to subscribe it really does help us out a lot with plan b emergency contraception, we're in control of our future.

6:41Okay, let's get straight into the hot list. Guys, I have a question for you. Yeah. If you were a hairdresser or a barber. A barber, that's brave. How much would you charge for a haircut? Or better yet, if you were paying for a haircut, what is the most amount of money that you would spend? Okay. What is the most amount of money you'd spend on a hairdresser? Am I getting a blow dry included? This is important. Am I blow drying my hair at home? Or is it just a haircut? Okay, let's do the whole shebang. and blow dry, cut, dye, whatever, wash, all of that. How much are you willing to wear? But I'm not a blonde, so I feel like - Yeah.

7:16I'm going to say 200 pound. Okay. As max. Max, yeah. Really? Okay, minus blonde. So just you being - If I was a blonde, I feel like it'd be a bit more, but I'm not, so I don't have to worry about that. Okay, what about you, Lola? I am a blonde. I feel like I have to like really hunt down the good hairdressers in life and I finally found my one really like it's ticking years I'm really happy for you because it really has like the way I have passion for this hairdresser is just ridiculous I would probably pay 250 max 250 if I'm just getting a a wash and a blow dry a straight like curly blow dry yeah I think 250 because I'm pretty good at it.

8:01Yourself. Yeah, agreed, agreed. Okay, well, it's come out that Chris Huppleton has charged$200 ,000 for his services. 200K? 200K, 200K. This is Kim Kardashian's hairdresser, right? Yes. What the hell? I know. So actually, I don't know if I'm being controversial. I did see that. I kind of don't really have anything bad to say about that. I just think. About 200K for a little wash and a blowjob. It's peak, but I'm not paying that. And whoever. I have a question. What's the question? Who paid it? Is it Kim Kardashian that paid it? He hasn't revealed his kind, but I'm assuming it's Kim Kardashian.

8:44Okay, is this kind of wild, but do you think Kim actually pays him? Well, I think he's got his fame, in my opinion. Obviously, he has a great brand. But he is known for being Kim K's hairdresser. or hairstylist, whatever they call it in that realm of the world. I don't know. I would say no. I can't imagine her like, oh, babe, I'll just bank transfer you right now. But she has the money. Like she could if she wanted to. And that's like chicken change to her. Do you think? I don't think they pay that guy. But then who is paying that? But I'm just saying, I don't think it's that bad for him because first of all, he's getting paid.

9:18And someone is obviously willing to pay that. So like, yeah, it's controversial. But like, if he can charge it, he should go ahead. Like he's made a name for himself. But 200K. I bet he doesn't even do the wash. I'm dead serious that he gets someone else to. But that is really true. In the hairdresser, my hairdresser doesn't do the whole thing for me. It's almost someone else does my hair wash. Do you remember that woman in LA that went viral or she got cancelled because... Chrissy. Yeah, Chrissy's hair or whatever it was. Hair by Chrissy. Hair by Chrissy. Oh my God, in 2020. She used to do all the influencers' hair.

9:50And she got cancelled because she was charging ridiculous amounts, like thousands of dollars. and she wasn't even doing the blow dry or the cut or anything. She just came in like a jude up the hair and was like, there you go. She gave those Utah curls. You know, when they're like curly and then at the end, they're like dead straight. They used to call her Hair by Crispy because all the influencers in 2020 basically lost their hair. And it all fell out because she basically like frazzled. And they would all come in all the time for like, I guess, free hair appointments. Yeah, because they were promoing it.

10:20Interesting. So it was Hair by Crispy. Hair by Crispy. But yeah, I think Chris Huffleton has, he's like actually just nailed it because he's getting 200 ,000 pounds or dollars. In my eyes, that's got to be like a Kim K wannabe lookalike paying that money. I agree. You know the girls that get like all the work from Kim K. I've seen that the now cool thing is you can, in LA, you can get a spray tan by the Kardashians spray tan person. Yes. Really? Like he comes to your house as like a personalized mobile service. and I guess it's the whole thing of like Kim Kardashian uses this person so I'm gonna use it.

10:57And then did you not see the whole thing maybe like a year ago now where Rachel Leary, a famous or like a well-known influencer put out on TikTok and basically was like, Kylie Jenner, what did you have? Like what was your boob job basically? Kylie Jenner replies and then it went - I remember that. It went crazy. It went crazy on this. Yes, yes. This, and it's like people are just infatuated I think by anything that Kardashians do. So it doesn't surprise me that someone would pay something like that because I think there's such huge stands. But I'm sorry. But that's wild. It is for something as trivial as like hair color or haircuts, you can get that good.

11:33As you guys are saying for 250 pounds. If you're doing maybe like extensions and a big like updo, like Kim K vibes. Add that all in for like a big like event. A thousand pounds max, I would say. I wonder what his most expensive treatment is. Sure, that. Do you think he like does the double shampoo? or do you think you like quadruple shampoos? What the hell in this process is costing that much? What is costing that much? I would say hair extensions are expensive. They could be, Chris, he could be using like Russian hair, which I know is expensive. So that could bulk up the price. But still, 200 ,000 pounds, that's ridiculous.

12:08That's wild. I remember, I think I saw this on Jamie Lang's podcast. Yes. And he was like, you charged 100 ,000. And Chris Happerton was like, that's a lie. I charged 200 ,000. So if someone's willing to pay£200 ,000, who would take the money? I would take that. That Color Wow stuff changed my life. Fair enough. Best living conditioner ever. Okay, guys. Euphoria. Who's watched it? Guys, I watched episode one and I can't do it. I'm over it. I can't do it. What the hell is going on in this new season of Euphoria? I just think Euphoria's taken it too far. They've lost the plot. There's like such dark storylines.

12:42Yeah. That like it's like, okay, get it. Season one was dark, but there was something quite whimsical and so far fair and quite LA about it. And now it's really, really dark. But this was all called though from the get go. I called it from when I first saw that trailer and I was like, this is not the same. Is that one of your predictions last year? Yeah, called it. And now look where we all are. Everyone in the TikTok comments are like, literally couldn't get past episode one. Some people also on the other end of the spectrum are also being like, this is like a Quentin Tarantino production. What, because it's in like the desert and like Bruce?

13:18I don't know. I haven't finished watching episode one. Can you run me through what happened? I honestly couldn't even tell you. I have only - Oh, you can't, okay. I think I've just been seeing clips and I think for me, it was, listen, I don't personally love Sweeney anyways, but watching her in that dog outfit and basically her whole plot line being about money and trying to get like famous. Yeah, and trying to make money quick. Like, I think there's a lot of topics in Euphoria that could have been handled a lot better. Okay. In the sense of, I think they brought out the worst in every single topic.

13:56Yeah. Whereas actually a lot of girls do make a lot of money in like not terrible ways on OnlyFans. Yeah, yeah. They do small business, but like, hey, hey, do your thing, queen. Yeah, I think they're trying to tap into everything that's like trending right now, as you do in like series and movies, but just in not the best way possible. Like you're saying, we're not OnlyFans thing. I don't know. I just feel like they've not done it right. And it's actually just really pissed me off. I don't want to watch the rest of it. I'm so really confused about Maddie right now. Like she's low, he's still standing on business, but she's like, what the, no, I think it was also Lexi who turned around and went, what the hell is going on?

14:29Cassie is taking pictures of herself. Rue's drugged up. Yeah. She doesn't even know what Maddie's on, but she's like, what the hell? Yeah. Like what is going on? You're right. Like, I feel like it's just not hitting the mark. Yeah. And I feel like because everyone was so enthralled and obsessed with season one. We all called it from the trailer of this one and it's just kind of gone a bit downhill. No one really wants to be there on the cast. They're all super big time now. Euphoria is another top line thing. I mean, Labyrinth initially had a whole thing. Oh yeah, we don't have Labyrinth anymore.

14:57Also, just the time period between the last season and this season, I think was too long. I feel like I can actually tell that Zendaya doesn't even want to be involved from her acting. She's still amazing, but I guess from all the press and everything that we know about the beef between her and Sydney and her and the producer. Yeah, yeah. I just kind of, I can't get that out of my brain. So that also might be influencing how I'm watching it. But I'm just kind of like, she just see the A. Off that point, I would be interested to know, because I think I'm the same, where if I hadn't heard all of this like bad press or people don't want to be there or all these like different perceptions that everyone had, would I still watch it the same way?

15:33Probably not. Probably not. I probably would get behind it, but I just can't. I feel like I just see through it way too much that like, I can't get like involved or like develop a relationship with the characters or their storylines. I think it's been too long. Yeah, it's been too long. They're all too old. They've all grown up and we've kind of grown up and it was fun being younger watching. Gosh, it was so fun being like a teenager looking at these like crazy LA teen lives. All the makeup. Yeah, it was just so fun, the music. I was like, it was the first series that I think that had come out that was like, I'd maybe taken it like the step too far.

16:05Like we've never really seen something like that before. Whereas now I think we've kind of seen all. That's exactly what it is. We've seen it like it's now just getting old. Also in season one, I don't know if you remember this, but somebody once said the only relatable character is that girl who just vapes in the corner. I remember you saying this. So true. And now she's pregnant. And they were being kind of mean to her. And it's like, I'm relatable now. Like she was the queen. She was the queen. She was so funny. OK, obviously the Met Gullers last week. Let's touch on it briefly. Yeah. I want to talk about Bavita Mandava.

16:39if you guys don't know she was the first south asian model to open for chanel she's like blown up in the past couple months she's an amazing gorgeous model and she's gone to the met gala this year her first time and she was dressed by chanel but they dressed her in jeans and a top they dressed her in jeans and a top i think the outfit just came out on the runway didn't it like i remember everyone talking about this this jean look it's sort of like what's it made out of Silk, apparently. But it's the Met Gala. It's the Met Gala. I'm sorry. Guys, honestly, seeing that bathroom selfie, I was like, cute.

17:14And then I looked in, I was like, is that AI? Like, genuinely. It looked fake. It looked fake. Because she was just in, like, this could be in the SL office. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm just like, why would they dress her like that? It wasn't her fault, obviously. But obviously, Chanel had so many other ambassadors that were at the Met Gala. They were all dressed in amazing gowns. like so pretty, so intricate. I think Margot Robbie's dress was, oh, 700 hours were spent on Margot Robbie's dress. Wow. But this woman has only been given a shirt and dreams. Yeah, it's unfair and cruel. And also I was going to say, do you have an advantage of being like, do you know what?

17:52I hate this outfit. Or is it your first met? Or do you have to just take it? I think it is that entirely. I think it's such a prestigious, like deeply rooted in history type of event that anyone's voice, I think, is nowhere near as the above of the Met Gala itself. But it's more Chanel. Is it more that Chanel, like she has no say in the Chanel sphere? I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and say that I think Chanel was trying to maybe, like, how do I say it? Do something. A bit different. A bit different, but also kind of set themselves up as one of the best and most notable fashion houses.

18:32and so that means they don't need all of the glitz and the glamour to stand out. Because the thing was like fashion is art but then what of that to me screams fashion is art. I just think for such a beautiful girl I haven't seen her in anything like that different yet because she's only been in Chanel. I was like ready to see her in this mega thing. I just think it was such a missed opportunity. I mean she looked unreal. Yeah I mean she looked amazing. She's silly beautiful and she could rock anything. Yeah for sure. Also if I was going to Met Gala and Chanel wanted to dress me in that I can't get there.

19:01Speaking of, so whilst Emma Chamberlain was at the Met Gala. She slayed, by the way. Her group chat was absolutely popping off, definitely. Because you're on the group chat, right? I'm on the group chat. Emma Chamberlain's recent ex-boyfriend, Peter McPoland, basically did a cover on TikTok singing her ex's song, role model, Sally, in his own version. So like - In like a slowed down keyboard. Like, don't get me wrong. This is kind of nuts, Law, because it was always like, is he singing about the new girl? Is he singing about Emma? Is he singing about Dakota? And then Peter obviously breaks up with Emma, who was around for like, what?

19:43A while. Four years? Yeah. Four years? Maybe not. Well, they did have a good stint at their relationship. Yeah. It was like a quick fling. Okay. Yeah, and so was Role Model. And you'd never seen them interact, but he's a singer. They're both singers, so it was kind of like going to happen one day. and he covered his song and it was kind of great. It was so good. Was it good? It was like a I'm not going to sing again for you guys. Sally. Yeah. I'm going to hit it. Anyways, poor girl. She's obviously having the like mega day because she hosts all the other. Do you reckon that was smart of him to post that at the same time when she's having her big moment?

20:21It was absolutely intentional. Do you want to know how fast I would get the ick? Because I'd be like you're taking away my big day that you obviously know that i would have been preparing for like years yeah it's kind of immature right so immature it's quite mean almost a bit evil and almost like who's taking the side of the ex-boyfriend that you probably hated at one point the fact that it was emma chamberlain's ex-boyfriend is role model okaying yeah this drama is he gonna be like leave me the hell out of yeah like this is a song i had about my ex without you involved like you're the new boyfriend it's a bit baggy it's giving you can't rest and you keep thinking of me all the time i would have to completely agree but then also at the same time if i was emma chamberlain and he broke up with me i'd be like you're so obsessed with me and both of them not only just say like one wrote the song then sang it and then the ex-boyfriend as well is now singing the cover version of the same song like you guys are obsessed honestly i would love to be on that group chat like is this something that emma's like oh my god ew or is she like Do you think Emma Chamberlain saw the messages while she was at the Met Gala?

21:28Oh, did it come out? Did it come out the day after? No, it was the day after. The morning after. Ah. But that's, no, that's what I'm saying. This is why I think it's evil. She's literally having the time of her life, like the peak of her career, the Met Gala, and then the morning after you have posted this cover. Yeah, it's - What? Well, maybe it's more of me like, You're trying to take her shine. That's so me. Take me back. Because I'm singing your ex-boyfriend's song, but I'm your ex-boyfriend. I just think that's really weird. I actually think that's really cringe. My theory is he's of blocked on every platform.

22:01And he's been posting a lot of thirst traps or something like that. And it's not getting through. And so what can you do to get attention? You've got to whack on Sally. Cover it. And then you know it's going to get to her. I wonder what she said in response to that. I hope she goes on a podcast. Emma, come on this podcast because we've got much. Or can you address it on your own podcast? Yeah. We need something. Because I saw that she was also on her friend, is Owen? Owen Field? She was on there maybe a while ago talking about how, why she's attracted to musicians. And she was sort of saying like, I don't go to them or I'm not attracted to them.

22:38They always come to me. So it's like, I wonder if her next boyfriend is also going to be a musician. Is this going to happen again? Or is she going to completely deter from musicians? After this, she's definitely running the other way. I'm never dating a singer ever again. Honestly, leave me out of your brain. I am obsessed with her though. Somebody commented, what stage of grief is this? That is funny. That's a really good comment. Okay, moving on. Kind of on the same line as fashion. Hayley Bieber is the new ambassador for Mango, which I thought was so interesting because she's previously been an ambassador for YSL and now she's sort of venturing into the high street market.

23:16Yeah. Super interested to see what she's going to do. I'm excited. I also know that Mango and high street brands in general slay the sunglasses. Hayley Bieber, known for her sunglasses. Completely. Are we gonna see some sunglasses? I hope so. I would love the sunglasses. Add that to some of my eyewear collection. Cause you need it, don't you? I really need it. But I just think she's such a cool face to have for that brand. I feel like it sort of fits her vibe. I'm just super intrigued to know what it's gonna look like. A, is this gonna make people, cause I know me, I'm not like a, I don't shop in Mango that frequently.
