Gabe Saporta's Glamour Kills line debuts

Cobra Starship frontman/"hobosexual" Gabe Saporta debuts his new clothing line with Glamour Kills today. The line features brightly colored T-shirts, plaid button-ups, hoodies and more--all with a distinct similarity to the wardrobe Saporta sports himself.

The vocalist had this to say about starting Overnight Sensation: "I was sick of watching Glamour Kills jack my style and make a ton of money from it. So I told Marky [Capicotto, GK founder] that if he didn't cut me in on his profits, I'd call some people I know in Queens and have them rip off his toe nails one-by-one. Naturally, Marky was more than willing to negotiate with me. All kidding aside, the first time I met Mark was when GK and Cobra collaborated on a limited edition t-shirt (and if I'm not mistaken, I believe we were the first band to do such a collaboration). The shirt looked sick, the reaction to it was awesome, and it sold out instantly. Mark was great to work with because we definitely share a similar esthetic, and in the back of my mind, I hoped we'd be able to work together again when the time was right. That time is now. Glamour Kills, Gabe Saporta Saves!"
