Mashup

No matter how blonde your hair or trim your figure, time eventually has its way. Indeed, Steve Jobs has this gift as Donatella Versace appears to be finding out. She started out from a modest background, the daughter of a military officer. Now she dominates signs of ageing, deep wrinkles, long platinum hairstyle, deep tan and the revealing clothes. Steve's atypical lifestyle has also left a strong mark on the bridge of the nose, which they believe could be due to excessive sun damage or simply botched surgery. Now, with the paper industry shifting to China, where labor and land are cheaper Steve is said to be tyrannical toward his employees, to often use public humiliation and to fire people at will. "My goal is to make a former cocaine addict make public appearances very often so that I don't have to waste time every morning wondering what I'm going to wear”. A year is a long time in fashion: Donatella Versace looking down in the mouth in New York this week. As a result when Steve came back to Apple in 1997, the word spread that he could enter a meeting+room full of employees, call their work “shit” and then fire them all on the spot, including Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, and the chief executive of eBay, Meg Whitman. "She's a visionary," said Herman Woo about Donatella Versace having the power to seduce almost anyone and convince them of almost anything, even beyond common sense.
