The Fug Girls
Heather Cocks & Jessica Morgan
Heather Cocks is a die-hard sports fan, a Leo, an ex-reporter, a Notre Dame grad, a dual citizen of the U.S. and U.K., a sandwich enthusiast, and a former producer for America's Next Top Model.
Jessica Morgan is a Southern California native and UCLA alumna who has produced reality shows ranging from Growing Up Gotti to the docu-series 30 Days. She collects shoes, books, and unpaid parking tickets. Both ladies live in Los Angeles and watch almost everything on the CW.
Together, they skewer celebrity fashion crimes on their popular blog, Go Fug Yourself, which draws millions of monthly readers and made Entertainment Weekly's Must List. Their dispatches from the front rows are routinely the most-read pieces on New York magazine's Web site during Fashion Week.
From the back cover of their book, The Fug Awards, which was published in 2008:
*Hailed as "the meanest queens in the cafeteria" by the Village Voice and "viciously funny" by The Hollywood Reporter, Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan entertain 3.5 million unique visitors every month via their blog. Their smart, scathing dressing-down of fashion disasters has become a media sensation, with TIME dubbing their website one of the fifty coolest blogs and Entertainment Weekly tagging it as one of the staff's twenty-five favorite sites on the Internet.*
They were recently in Chicago to judge an episode of So You Wanna Be A Designer, a web-series filmed at the Kenmore Live studios.
Also, their first novel for young adults, Spoiled, will be released on June 1! Kirkus Reviews just called it "obsessively readable, smartly subversive," and The Fug Girls are freaking out!
