Modeling legends and notorious partiers Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell will appear on a special charity episode of the British reality show "Gogglebox," during which we will get to watch them watch TV shows and react to the programs (so meta, right?). The episode, which also features Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher, will raise money for the network’s Stand Up To Cancer fundraiser. {Daily Mail}

In a rare insight into Chanel's finances, the French magazine Challenges is reporting that the fashion house saw roughly $1.53 billion in operating profits for 2013, with sales growing 8.5 percent to $6.61 billion.
