Kim Kardashian Needs to Learn How to Dance

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

If you think a girl with a body and ass like Kim would know how to shake it, you’re in for a surprise. Kim performed the mambo on Dancing With The Stars, and it was just utterly painful to watch.

Baby got back alright, but she ain’t got the moves!

Aubrey O’Day Wants to be a Porn Star

Aubrey O’Day

Aubrey O’Day

That’s the feeling I get when I see these pics of Aubrey O’Day of Danity Kane fame in Complex Magazine. They’re just a bit too trashy for my taste. I can see why Diddy gets on her case constantly about her image not fitting in with Danity Kane. The big hair, the excessive makeup and the lack of clothes (which is usually a good thing) really doesn’t fit the sophisticated persona that Diddy tries to create for Danity Kane.

But she doesn’t care what we think. As Aubrey puts it:

If I have to be ridiculed and called a whore and the party animal and the dumb girl for the rest of my career, I’m OK with that. Because I love who I am. You’re going to have to interpret me however you’re going to interpret me.

Marissa Miller Malibu Magazine Photos

Marissa Miller Malibu Magazine

Malibu Magazine has a great set of photos as well as an interview with veteran Sports Illustrated and Victoria Secret supermodel Marissa Miller.

Did you always want to be a model? Were you shocked when photographer Mario Testino discovered you on that fateful day in Manhattan Beach?

No and yes. As you know I’m from Santa Cruz, a really small town in Northern California. There is really very little awareness of the entertainment industry or tabloids or US Weekly up there. Even to be aware of celebrity is rare. Everybody pretty much surfs or skates, and it’s a very simple existence. S0, modeling wasn’t something I even knew was an occupation. Even when I was 16 years old putting pictures and posters on my wall, I never had the thought, “Oh, the people in these pictures are models and this is what they do for a living.” It was just my sisters and I messing up our room, just ripping out pages in magazines and sticking them on the wall. That was the extent of me reading fashion magazines. I didn’t really have a big clue about any of it. I was aware of it, but nothing like this is what I want to do some day.

Danny Choo Featured on CNN

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008
If you’re wondering who Danny Choo is, he’s the crazy storm trooper on YouTube (over 1 million views) that dances at various places in Tokyo to the song “Let’s Groove Tonight.”
Danny also has his own website dannychoo.com, where he talks about his life and work in Japan. It’s a site I visit every so often to see what weird Japanese pop culture phenomenon Danny has discovered. This morning however, was a completely different story. I checked in and saw that Danny was featured on CNN. My jaw just dropped. My jaw dropped again when I learned that his dad is none other than luxury stiletto shoe designer Jimmy Choo.
Now most sons would just live off their mega wealth fathers, but Danny chose a different path. He pursued his dream in Tokyo without daddy’s help, and that just rocks.
Congrats on the CNN feature Danny, and keep up the incredible work!
