I recently saw a Jewish guy with curly hair (think Billy Crystal) rockin a yarmulke and walkin down the street smoking a Cohiba. I don't know why but it gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling inside.
One of nicest guys in NY, who def knows how to throw a party and turn an ordinary event into an affair, Cassidy shows me SO much love everytime I see him that I had to put this HILARIOUS video up and show him some love, too:
From Rachel Garabedian that said:"So there's this one guy who takes money at the toll (who looks like Biggie) and everytime I give him $1.25 instead of saying 'thank you' he's like 'how you doin ma' and expects me to hold up the line of traffic in my beemer and have a conversation with him... just thought you'd get a laugh out of that, xo"
Does Christina Milian's new album cover (being released on myspace records):
Make her look like she would be a great addition to the Lloyd and Weezy video "All Around The World" Either way, I think ella es muy caliente... Christina's definitely in my top 10 (for looks) and I'm anticipating a Hype Williams-esque intergalactic video for her first single
I love how Puff wasn't included on the "Swagga Like Us" joint with Tip, Kanye, Weezy and Jay-Z so he made this in retaliation (I recommend starting it at 2:32 for maximum ridiculousness):
"It's a lot of pressure because everyone's depending on you... and your mood. When you go on set, everyone feels it. On a day when you're tired, it's important to just say good morning to everyone so they're kinda aware that it's going to be a good day." ~Lindsay Lohan
Whenever I hear people say "Good Morning," it reminds me of Rev Run in the bathtub. :)
I feel like a conglomeration of Vashtie and Mary-Kate.
I'm rockin a men's XL Juvenile Success t-shirt with short Georgia shorts and tall plaid rainboots.
For those of you living under a rock: Juvenile Success is the realization of Todd Moscowitz and Joie Manda's vision of a high end clothing line incorporating the urban rock and roll lifestyle, attitude, and perspective. Launched in the Summer of 2008, Juvenile Success clothing with it's distinctive red strip armbandis sold in limited quantities online and has been seen on numerous celebrities in various videos and television appearances. As soon as one slips on a Juvenile Success t-shirt, they are given a unique confidence that is frequently manifested in Rock Stars and Rappers alike. Shout-out to Sick and Todd for putting me on withJS
I love how I texted my newly-turned 19 year old brother: "what are you up to?"at 2:30 in the morning, thinking he would respond with something along the lines of sleeping, playing x-box or microwaving easy mac and he replies,"in San Diego, driving home* from the Dylan concert." * Home = Boston,Cali,Pittsburgh or NYC In this instance, for him, he was referring to Cali
Via NyTimes: Ruth Butler recently wrote this incredible book about how world-renouned artists like Cezanne, Rodin and Monet would pick up models on the streets of Paris, who they would later marry, and use as muses for the majority of their artwork. "The artists used the same model - often a wife or lover - over and over and over again in different paintings and in different scenes."
The piece above, "La Japonaise," Claude Monet did in 1876 of his wife, Camille. Butler recalls, "Monet and Camille were a wonderful working couple. She just loved to pose."
Me: "I feel like I'm on crack" Dre:"ME TOO!!" Me: "I don't think my body's used to all these endorphins. I mean I walk a lot but..." Dre: "YEAH!!!" Me: "...But I haven't ran in a while... what's with the 'YEAH!!!' ???" Dre: "Ster, don't take this the wrong way, but you have REALLY nice legs" Me: "Uh... thanks"
This conversation accurately exemplifies my relationship with Andrea Zeytoonian. Gotta love her.
Via NYTimes:"After a six-month search, the Museum of Modern Art has chosen one of its own curators, Ann Temkin, to succeed John Elderfield, who retired as chief curator of painting and sculpture in July. Ms. Temkin assumes the curatorial post, considered the most prestigious in the field of Modern art, as MoMA gears up for its second growth spurt in less than a decade. After an $858 million expansion completed in 2004, the museum plans to extend its galleries further in a tower that is being built next door on West 54th Street in Manhattan... In recent years some art-world critics have felt that the museum should have been more on top of what was happening in contemporary art. Ms. Temkin said that one of her priorities was to ensure that MoMA’s collection of contemporary art is unrivaled."
