Who's Pharrell's Fashionista Wife?

by Samantha Martin

Pharrell may be one of the biggest names in music right now, but who is the one woman who makes him most — wait for it — "Happy?" The pretty lady photographed beside the 41-year-old rapper/singer/songwriter/producer/designer/multiple-slash-haver above is Pharrell Williams' wife Helen Lasichanh. The couple has been together for years, but the two didn't officially tie the knot until their Miami wedding in October of 2013. Now, to say that Lasichanh is nothing more than Pharrell's arm candy would be a drastic oversimplification. Here's are some key things to know about Lasichanh.

1. She's a major fashionista

It's no surprise these two ended up together, as Pharrell is known for his bold fashion choices and Lasichanh is a model and fashion designer. I wonder whose idea the hat was...

2. She's human

By which I mean she may a fashionista, but sometimes clothes plague her the same way they plague us. At the 2013 Met Gala, she endured a bit of a wardrobe malfunction — the Janet Jackson kind — and it was unfortunately caught on tape.

3. She's not afraid to be taller than her man

In most shots of the couple, Lasichanh ever-so-slightly towers over Pharrell. Kudos to both for not developing any complexes.

4. She's a proud mother

Saving the best for last. In November 2008, Pharrell and Lasichanh welcomed baby boy Rocket Ayer Williams. In case you doubted these two would make the cutest parents ever, listen to this Despicable Me track Pharrell wrote for his son. It includes this sweet lyric:

Since you were a thought/Floating around in our minds/We knew that you could teach us/The true meaning of life.
