The Bite Magazine - issue 16

primarily about his career and public image but did not mention anything about his fiancée throughout. Celeb Dirty Laundry decided this meant that Pattinson was not ready for marriage with the singer and speculated in an article saying that, “Pattinson conveyed a blasé reaction when asked about his love interests and relationship with FKA Twigs. Stating that he is ‘working with whoever interests me.” Clearly, he was speaking about his career and how he chooses film projects and not about his fiancée but the controversial webloid decided to twist it round to relate to the singer instead. They even claimed that FKA Twigs wants an open mar- riage with the actor when she ranted about her “love never running out”. The webloid reported that the singer took to Instagram and posted a photo of a human heart with the caption, “the love I have comes with a certificate saying it will never ever bleed dry so I can act wild and run fast with it.” What they failed to mentioned was what the whole message said, which spoke about her love for just anyone on planet Earth including the ‘woman at the bus stop, the boy who just walked past her’ and even her enemies. In our books, taking a small portion of a message rather than the whole thing and then twisting it around to what you want it to mean does not win any brownie points and so it is no wonder that the web- loid’s credibility is not sound. Despite the hot couple coming face-to-face with Pattinson’s ex-girlfriend at the Met Ball this year, there were thankfully no ani- mosity and Stewart is said to be happy for them. The actress is reported to have said that she thinks FKA Twigs (real name Tahliah Debrett Barnett) is good for Pattinson and even hugged them both. Of course, there were some people speculating what must have been going through the singer’s mind when the former lovers first saw each other and embraced. Along with her angelic, almost-porcelain doll features, FKA Twigs’ sense of fash- ion-forward style is always something to look forward to. Known for her artis- tic and daring streak in her avant-garde stage shows, the singer looks amazingly mind-blowing every time she steps out. For example, at the Met Ball she wore a custom-made Versace bondage-themed nude gown with crossover design on the décolletage which complimented her skin tone, along with a face chain. Her neckline may have been low-cut and the backless design showed off her intricate back piece tattoo but she was still able to retain her modesty while showing plenty of skin. Last year at the MOBOS Awards, she opted for a wide-leg Jitrois leather trousers and lace-up body suit; for her performance at Osheaga music festival, she showed off her outlandish style with a bralet, silk pants and open shirt; at Parklife 2015, her sexy abs were the focal point in a slashed white bod- ysuit and distressed denim; while the 2015 BRITs Awards saw the singer step out in a black geometric cut-out bodice and trousers with a monochrome sheer skirt over it. A diverse singer, FKA Twigs’ perfor- mances are nothing short of artistic and intriguing so there is always new expectation. At an exclusive MAC Cos- metics party in celebration of London Fashion Week last year, the singer per- formed in a fishnet bodysuit with a black bralet along with a billowing orange rose print silk skirt and chunking black leather boots. Putting on a racy show, FKA Twigs treated guests to a series of raunchy dance moves during a perfor- mance of some of her alternative tracks. With each improved performance, the singer has recently been seen rocking some boisterous moves with her body twisting and moving to the unkempt rhythms of her songs. Her falsetto voice is the basis of her latest songs with its hypnotic tone holding the audience in awe and wonder. A fan of geometric designs, FKA Twigs’ most distinguished markings to date was the temporary tattoo on her back at the Met Ball. The artistic design drawn by celebrity make-up artist Anastasia Durasova using TEMPTU is based on ‘mental geometry’ and inspired by ‘protection’. Her original stage name ‘Twigs’ derived from the way her joints crack but she soon had to change this as another artist called ‘the Twigs’ com- plained about her use of the name. A former back-up dancer, FKA Twigs has appeared in music videos by artists such as Kylie Minogue, Plan B, Ed Sheeran, Taio Cruz, Dionne Bromfield and Jessie J. She was one of the dancers in Jessie J’s 2010 video for ‘Do It Like A Dude’ and 2011 video for ‘Price Tag’ as well as Dionne Broomfield’s ‘Yea Right’ and was also in a two-minute BBC comedy sketch titled Beyoncé Wants Groceries bite music celeb
