10 Great Musicians Turned Models
- Posted by Sarah Kurchak
Mr. Porter | Saint Laurent
The latest rocker to be lured in front of the camera and onto the runway is Great Lake Swimmers frontman Tony Dekker, who donned a series of designer blazers that made him look like the most dapper man in Deadwood to play a song for high-end fashion retailer Mr. Porter.
Evening the score a bit, ex-Girls singer Christopher Owens has returned from his own dalliances with fashion as a model for a Saint Laurent Paris campaign to release his debut solo album, Lyssandre.

January 20 2013 at 3:14 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyAs everyone knows Rock and Roll music was a rebellious and defiant movement countering the established popular musical norms during the 50's, 60's, and on into the present day. Courtney Love has a place in this movement and whether you like her music or not has persevered through greater life trials than most of the readers here (myself included) could endure. Yet she still makes music. Enjoy that which you will and help other's do the same.

January 20 2013 at 6:35 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyShe did have something to do with Kurts death, he took the easy way out, his other choice was to stay with her.
