Jelani Bandele, Elle Empire's street-savvy charmer, has been for two decades a keen observer and exemplar of cultural trends in music, fashion, arts, and entertainment. Undeniably, her "insider's access" allows Bandele entree to a wide range of top names among established as well as emerging talent.
Cielito Pascual, the Elle Empire envoy to the quirky and off-beat, has at various times worked as a journalist at the UN, a designer of stripper costumes, a real estate agent, a documentary filmmaker of unexplained phenomena. Consequently, she has an uncommon instinct for what makes people stand up and pay attention.
