ysl did not use palin as inspiration.

this is the greatest comment from fashionindie.com

"Fox News is trying to convince people that that Palin chick is also inspiring runway collections. They are saying that her “signature beehive” is hitting the runways of YSL. Reality check Murdock, the woman can barely inspire a bowel movement let alone a hair style from the house of the late, great Mr.Laurent. He’s probably turning in his grave as we speak. "

pretty sure i dont need my eyes checked. these two are not similar.
