byrnes_stevebarrys.jpg“Hairspray” the musical-turned-movie has been nothing less than a media frenzy for the stars including John Travolta, Queen Latifah, and the barely-out-of-her-teens sitcom starlet, Amanda Bynes.

But the movie isn’t all Amanda has been up to this year. She’s joining the ranks of super celeb Sarah Jessica Parker and NBA great Stephon Marbury with plans to launch a line for discount clothing retailer Steve & Barry’s. What is it about the store – which is a little more than a notch above Wal-Mart – that attracts such household names to design for them?

SJP made a name for herself as read more ....
