Brooke Candy talks MAC line and new album!
Quote:
When you get the exclusive scoop on filthy-freaky-feminist singer/rapper/model Brooke Candy's hellishly hot MAC collaboration dropping this week, there are a few thoughts that instantly run through your head. The bombshell muse to Diesel's head creative Nicola Formichetti, Candy is a visual feast of Thanksgiving's Day proportions, plus all the leftovers. Will she be wearing chain mail and metallic armor? Cutout mesh bodysuits? Babies on leashes? We set out to discover all this and more.
"I'm just training for my life, for my future, for my new album coming out in the fall [tentatively called Freaky Princess, produced by Sia]. I want to be the best artist that I can be, and in order to do that I need to be diligent about my health. I want to be the person that is so uber healthy and fit that it inspires you to go out and do the same. I want to be the artist who is clear headed, works incredibly hard, and will go the extra mile and work all night."
On top of working on a new album (and a ripped set of abs), Candy has been cooking up a little something with MAC Cosmetics: a capsule collection featuring two vampy lipsticks (Mind Control in bright red and Which Witch in deep purple) and an intense liquid eyeliner (Boot Black) inspired by her own obsession with good and evil. From the savage product names to the Chola-meets-Marilyn Monroe campaign shot by legendary Ellen Von Unwerth ("She's just the coolest ****ing lady") to the sweet 'n' sour packaging, the collection is unmistakably Candy. Dichotomous, glamorous, naughty, and nice. Her signature split personality literally brought to life with a mix of deviant devil horns and gaudy dripping diamonds.
"In the industry and in the world, I am stifled. But MAC has always accepted me and wanted to showcase me," she says of the collaboration. "They take risks, and I take risks. They aren't afraid. They were open to every idea I put on the table, without hesitation, which was amazing. In my career, I've been constantly met with hesitation and opposition because of my radical ideas."
MAC X Brooke Candy drops August 27th online only.
