JoJo Levesque: Not a Girl, Not Yet a Woman

Joanna “JoJo” Levesque is growing up real fast! She is not 13 anymore! She wants the whole world to know she is more mature and worried with different issues that threaten specially women.'You know I’m not 13 anymore. I’m not comfortable doing that type of material so I’m really just taking the bull by the horns and taking charge.' JoJo said her role model is Jill Scott.
'I saw her concert not too long ago and she brought me to tears. She made me laugh; she brought me on a journey. And lyrically, her words really touched me, so. I’d love to have that same effect on people one day.'
She also feels very strongly about women's issues. 'As I grow older I learn more about them, and I do more of my own personal research, and speak to people that are more educated about it.
There’s so much that I want to do as far as the sex trade and female genital mutilation. There are a lot of things that I’m interested in and haven’t had the opportunity to work with.'

Fashion Face-OFF: Donald Duck vs. Miley Cyrus

Remember Miley Cyrus’ topless photo scandal?? Donald Duck decided to do the same thing… he got Anne Leibovitz (artist is Daniel Adel) to take a photo of him where he is only covered by a white sheet and looks miserably dark.
Countless spoofs where done about this photo for Vanity Fair, but to me this is absolutely the best one… Disney and Miley Cyrus… Donald Duck and Miley Cyrus… ;)

Pregnant Jessica Alba Talks About Baby & New Movie

Jessica Alba is a little gaga. It's not because she has a potentially big movie with Mike Myers, "The Love Guru." about to hit theaters (June 20). Alba, 27 and newly married, has another major production on her mind -- the impending birth of her first child.
Tell us about your role in "The Love Guru."
I am a huge fan of Mike and his work. He is a freakin' comic genius. My character inherits this hockey team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. They haven't won a game, and the city of Toronto basically blames her and her family. She thinks you have to heal from within, and she believes in Eastern philosophies. One of the books she reads is the Love Guru's.

Do you have a spiritual side? I grew up in a Catholic home and then I went into a more Eastern approach on my own. I think there's something to be said for herbs and meditation and things like that.

What's been your least favorite movie role? There are quite a few. I feel like more than anything, I'm at the beginning of my career. I'm hoping to hit my groove when I'm in my 30s and 40s.

Let's talk about the baby. Have you gotten any outrageous offers for photos? I haven't really gotten any -- not that I'm aware of. You have to understand, everything that is written is kind of bull ...

Do you have a chandelier in the nursery like Jennifer Lopez?
Actually, I do. I got a really beauti- ful one.

Do you plan to nurse? Yeah, I'm definitely going to try to do everything to give the baby as much nourishment as possible.

About nourishment, what was the last thing you cooked?
Last night we had halibut soft tacos and a really amazing vegetable salad and panini doughnuts. You buy regular or apple fritter doughnuts and make a panini -- Cash's favorite.

You were criticized for disrespecting your Hispanic heritage. On a census, what would you check? I always check white and Hispanic.

You said you can't wait to meet your brown baby. What do you mean? I mean my dad is dark-skinned [Mexican], Cash's daddy is dark-skinned [African-American], and our moms are both white. So there's a 50-50 chance of our kid coming out dark or light. It would be nice if the daddies can see themselves in our baby.

Do you think, especially after this presidential election, that we won't be so obsessed with skin color as a nation? I think my generation is the last generation that sees color. In this next generation coming up, everybody is mixed. And I think with people like Jennifer Lopez and Halle Berry being out there opening movies and having clothing lines and pushing the idea of ideal beauty, [the ideal isn't] Christie Brinkley anymore. You don't have to look like Barbie.

Note>> Jessica Alba is reportedly in labor… we will keep you updated!

photographie

today i went to bexhill to see 'unpopular culture' - a selection of works from the Arts Council by Grayson Perry (who also had two of his pieces on display). The works are all modern (i'd say post WWII though the 70's mainly, not like MODERN modern) and are all sort of nostalic and a bit somber. It's supposed to be exactly what you don't think of when you think of this period of art. I think most of the pieces were lovely, especially the photography.

here is one of my favorite artists:
thurston hopkins

actually this wasn't in the show but i couldn't find the one i liked best online so i picked this, a new one, instead.

oh and about grayson perry.
one of the big reasons I am into Grayson Perry is because he has a transvestite alter ego named Claire (like Bruno and Rodrigo). And also that his alter ego is a little girl and not some bizarro version of a woman aka almost every other tranny ever.


He is also an amazing artist and does things in mediums that i think are really interesting and fairly unexplored (i.e. embroidery and painted pottery). He also won the Turner Prize in 2003.

OMG!! Brad Pitt Is Insanely Smart!!

I cannot believe I'm saying this but Brad Pitt is the sweetest, the most attractive, and the hottest insane guy ever! To celebrate the future birth of his twins with Angelina Jolie, Brad spent an astonishing amount of money in bizarre furniture!!! OMG!!
WTF!!! I know!!! Some of us, mere immortals can’t even afford furniture, much less furniture so priceless it’s a piece of art by itself!! Come on, Brad is gorgeous, smart, talented, a humanitarian and to top it off he has expensive good taste! We love Brad Pitt!!
The film star paid 150,000 pounds ($293,000) for a hollow white marble rococo-style table by the Dutch designer Jeroen Verhoeven at the booth of the London-based Carpenters Workshop Gallery, Director Loic Le Gaillard said in an interview today.
Pitt’s 4-foot-long “Cinderella Table,” from an edition of six, is hewn from a solid block of Carrara marble. Another version of the table was among 16 pieces that the gallery had sold by the second afternoon of the fair, said Le Gaillard.
Brad’s other purchases included chairs, lamps, and a rug made from aluminum thread that is priced at $175 per square foot. No word was available on the exact size of the rug he ordered.

Yep, those are really weird pieces of furniture… I mean art… of course Brad is not letting all of his 4, soon to be 6 kids play around those expensive, dangerous art pieces!!

Shania Twain Speaks Up After Split

After the split from her husband Mutt Lange, Shania Twain is healing her wounds and thanking her fans for all the support in this difficult stage in her life.
To my beloved fans:

As I am sure you have seen or heard; I am going through a rough time
personally in my life. I wanted you all to know that I could not be
getting through this without you. Your letters, emails and words of
encouragement give me strength. Your overwhelming support reminds me to
smile, no matter how deep the pain and to always be grateful for all the
beautiful blessings in my life.

I have so much to say but I know the best way for me to speak is through my
music. This is my therapy, my passion, and my love. I look forward to
sharing it with all of you as I begin this new journey.

I need some time to heal this broken heart but make no mistake; I will be
back and hopefully stronger than ever.

Thank you my friends, from the bottom of my heart.

Love,
Shania

Shania was stabbed in the back by a close friend, Marie-Anne Thiébaud a longtime secretary and house manager at Twain and Lange's estate in Switzerland.
Marie-Anne already denied she had a close relationship or an affair with Shania’s ex-husband. Shania and Mutt have a 6-year-old son, Eja D’Angelo.
