Andre 3000 Wants Prince Charles To Wear His Fashion Range....
Andre 3000 is convinced Prince Charles would approve of his new clothing line Benjamin Bixby, because he can see the British royal wearing the range himself.The hip-hop star, real name Andre Benjamin, recently launched the upmarket fashion range and admits he took his inspiration from English formal wear.He says, "England taught America to dress. You guys showed us how to dress smartly and then we made it cool. We made it less formal, though men know how to wear a suit in London."And he reveals plans to get members of the British royal family to don his wares.He adds, "I could see Prince Charles in one of my shirts - top dollar. Wills and Harry also rock. The princes are doing a great job with their looks. Maybe I can get them into some Benjamin Bixby and they'll be even cooler. Winston Churchill was one cool dude, too. He always looked dapper."Meanwhile in related news the rapper/actor Andre 3000 owns just one piece of jewellery - because "bling" is "not his thing".Hip-hop stars are known for their love of gold and diamonds, but OutKast rapper Andre 3000 admits he's one of few exceptions - confessing the jewels he wears on stage are all fake.He says, "You can keep your bling. It's not my thing.
"I'll wear costume jewellery on stage, but I only actually own one piece of jewellery, and that's a Native American beaded necklace that I wear all the time. I bought it years ago, because my family has Native American roots - I'm part African, part Native American.".
