Shirtlessness might be the hottest thing since pantslessness. Rihanna sartorially acknowledged our nation’s independence day by sticking silver stars over her nipples, topped only by a blazer that displayed them pretty clearly. Lady Gaga has already stepped out with bootleg pasties under a sheer shirt. Pasties appeared in a British Vogue editorial last month. Britney’s wearing them on her Circus tour. So pasties seem to be a trend, which is, though better than walking around with nipples showing through sheer fabric, perhaps worse than not wearing bottoms. [Just Jared]
