Justin Timberlake And Ashton Kutcher: Trucker Hats At Dawn

This non-story is so ridiculous, I just had to write about it.  Forget the war in Iraq or soaring gas prices or missing toddlers or the upcoming elections, this is some serious stuff and it must be brought to the attention of the masses.  It seems that there is a dispute over who started the trucker hat craze, Justin or Ashton:

“It’s funny,” Timberlake says in the new issue of Fashion Rocks magazine. “I keep hearing Ashton Kutcher say how he was responsible for trucker caps. I’ve heard him make that statement before.”

But Timberlake insists he and his William Rast fashion line partner and childhood friend Trace Ayala are the real trendsetters. “Trace and I were wearing them when we were seventeen,” Mr. SexyBack says.

I’m glad that stars are finally concentrating on serious issues which face the world we live in and have moved away from silliness and superficial stuff which, in the long run, doesn’t really matter.

And I got news for both Justin and Ashton.  You didn’t invent trucker hats, ladies.  You see, there’s a reason why they’re called trucker hats.  I’ve seen them since I was a little girl right here in the flyover states and I know they’ve been around long before that.  The current crop of pre-broken-in vintage look trucker hats are just pretenders…us true fashionistas in the Midwest have had the real thing since the ark.  It isn’t our fault that it took the shiny happy people forever to copy a trend which has been going full force for years.  Come on, girlz, get with it!

  1. Justin looks fine in his William Rast clothing. He looks cute in the trucker hat, he would look good in anything! Including a speedo which we saw in the “Love Guru”. I love Justin… I have a bunch of his videos at my blog:

  3. Forget Justin, forget cougar-lover, that trucker is one fiiiine hunk of man! THAT’S how you wear a trucker hat. Da-rool!

    A lot of girls wear trucker hats in Tokyo. I actually think they look pretty cute with the hats, their stick bodies, and giant hoop gold earrings that weigh more than said stick bodies.

    But seriously, I want Justin and Ashton to try bringing those measuring tape suspenders to the fashion table.

  5. That trucker is probably worth a hundred of Justin and Ashton combined, tape measure suspenders notwithstanding.
