Jimmy Brooks You're Okay By Me

New comer Drake is burning up the charts, but I know him better as Jimmy Brooks from Degrassi:The Next Generation. Jimmy Brooks made Degrassi tolerable, especially when he landed in a wheel chair after the infamous school shooting episode.

Drake made his break with that weak song "Best I Ever Had" which I would consider just as a stepping stone to better things and collaberations. Since Drake has been signed to Lil Wayne's label Young Money, he has been part of some really hot tracks like "Money To Blow", "Forever" and "I'm Going In." Check out former Jimmy Brooks out and maybe get a "champagne shower."

You Know Who Else Is Fabulous?

You know who else is beyond fabulous?
Miss Kat Dennings.

She is in Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, Charlie Bartlett and that House Bunny shit.

Dennings, along with Olivia Thirlby, was on the cover of Nylon Magazine's "Young Hollywood" issue.



When Did Your Heart Go Missing?

Okay, Here's a more flattering photo of Steve Aoki who I like to affectionately call The White Snow Leopard. Epic!

What Is This CRAP You Call Music?


This is the first post in a new segment I'm calling "What Is This CRAP You Call Music?"
First Victim of many: Kesha
Her Song "Tik Tok" is burning up the charts and I'm not sure why. Oh and sorry if you were confused, I mean Ke$sha...
In "Tik Tok", the lyrics are severely trashy and trick Kesha barely sings. It seems like the song is trying to be purposely bad-ass, but it comes out as obviously divulgent. Here's some highlights of the lyrics:

"Wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy " - what does this mean? Why the name drop?

"Before I leave brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack"- I know h.c. kids who brush with Everclear. So what?

"And now the dudes are lining up cause they hear we got swagger
But we kick em to the curb unless they look like Mick Jagger "- Mick Jagger now, or in 1970, that's all I want to know?

"I´m talking about - everybody getting crunk crunk
Boys trying to touch my junk junk
Gonna smack him if he getting too drunk drunk " - Crap, Crap...

Anyways, the masterpiece music video for "Tik Tok" shows Ke$ha in her prime. It begins by showing her waking up in a bath tub in a randoms house. More or less, it looks like she woke up in a trash bin after a night of shooting heroin. Now that's high class.

She rolls out of the randoms house and then sits out on the street on a milk crate, looking kind of like she's homeless until a dude with a pedo mustache and fanny pack wins her over. She rides around in his gold Trans-Am stroking his mustache and acting cracked out of the sun roof.

Kesha eventually makes her way to a party where she strokes that mustache again and ends the night passed out in bath tub, again. This is trashy at it's finest. There's good trashy and bad trashy, and this all around is just bad, bad, bad.

The White Snow Leopard Strikes Again!

This photo almost belongs in the "Would You Hit It Section?", but I just can't do it. Steve Aoki is way to epic for that.

Damn this snow leopard flipping his luscious mane in the wind...

I wish he was "In My House"...

Heart Shaped Glasses Pt. 2

Oh la la. Voici Evan.
Here she is, the cover girl.
Admire and wish you were Michael Douglas's daughter in King of California.

This Is Our Future, Part 4

This post is commandeered by D-listed courtesy of Michael K.
The link below is to an article on D-listed about Justin Bieber. Just the first sentence of the post had me laughing:
"Justin Bieber, the 15-year-old fetus boy with lesbian emo hair who is currently the new Jesus in the eyes of tweens..."
Maybe that's why Justin is Ellen's new bestie. He's been on her show twice in the past two weeks...

You Know You Want to See More...


So here is more of these bizzaro shoes. The shoe on the left looks kind of like a lizard claw. The shoe on the right looks like something out of the Dark Crystal. I know these are on the runway, so I am curious how these are going to be transpired to the store shelf. We'll see!

Alexander McQueen Spring/Summer Collection 2010

Finally, a designer that understands what Gaga wants. McQueen's newest collection is more than bizarre; it's Lady Gaga worthy. In the video for "Bad Romance", Gaga wears McQueen's ulta-post modern shoes. I think it's a show stopper. So is McQueen's collection in its entirety.

Watch the video of the runway show:

"Playing Suck and Blow With My Marlboro Man"

Let's talk about ad Icons for a second. The top of the tops for advertising is the "cowboy killer" campaign - the iconic Marlboro Man.

He is seen as an enemy to the healthcare system, an ultimate- male gay icon, and the epitome of an advertising campaign.

Marlboro Man, you are the ultimate fantasy; smoking cigarettes from 1954 -1999, looking sexy under that cowboy hat, and giving boys the chills. Oh Marlboro Man.

However,the image of Marlboro Man "still remains instantly evocative of a mythical Marlboro country, of a mythical American cowboy and of the No. 1 brand of cigarettes that gave that cowboy real lung cancer." (Ad age)

P.s.- The heading is part of lyrics from Peter Breeze- "Hook Me Up"

Too Fake? For Real.

Not in any way associated with Canada, Hockey comes at you full force with upbeat groves. A friend of mine managed to catch Hockey live at Bonaroo and raves constantly about them. They also recently rocked out SPIN's rooftop party. The word is out, Hockey is here to groove, sans pucks and sticks.

Madonna on Gaga

Madonna has this to say about Gaga in a recent Rolling Stone interview (RS 1090). I think it solidifies Gaga's career as a pop star:

Madonna: "I think Lady Gaga is great. When we saw her, I actually felt a kind of recognition. I thought, 'she's got something.' There's something quirky about her... But I can see myself in Lady Gaga. In the early part of my career, for sure. When I saw her, she didn't have a lot of money for her production, she's got holes in her fishnets, and there's mistakes everywhere. It was kind of a mess, but I can see that she's got that It factor. It's nice to see that at a raw stage."

"You're the Only Prostitute Here"

Oh Gossip Girl you say it best.
Truly you are the only prost. in this house...

I know that I am late on this G.G. train, so let's make this trip a short one.

G.G. is house hold lingo. It's becoming that classic quotable trash that I love. It's so trashy and epic, that like a train wreck, I can't pry my eyes away from it.

Chuck Bass is def. the trick I would turn.

P.S. - Gossip Girl should be paired with a french press of Italian Roast, fudgesicles and cigarettes.
