I don't know if fashion counts as entertainment, but at least for today we're going to say it does, as the buzz this morning is about the death of 40-year-old designer Alexander McQueen. CNN rounds up some reaction from the fashion community, while the Guardian checks in with the entertainment world. And it looks like McQueen's label will be shut down. Meanwhile, Fashion Week goes on, including the annual red dress effort for heart disease awareness.

On to the less fashionable entertainment headlines today:
