Sick to the back teeth

Posted in Celebrity, Music, Musings, Style by

I’m only new to this blogging game, and look to other more experienced bloggers for tips and tricks.

I’m going to admit I read Perez Hilton to see all the celeb gossip, to laugh at their petty mistakes and fashion errors and sometimes there are a few good stories. But I am just so sick of him being so goddam mean and one-sided.

I don’t think he claims to be a journalist so there is no need for a balanced report but his posts almost cross the line of bullying, it’s like he has no soul.

His attack on Lindsay Lohan or ‘Lindsanity’ as he calls her is evil! And why does he care so much whether Lily Allen comes out of retirement or not?!

And then there is his ‘Wifey’ or Lady Gaga as she is more formerly known. He claims to have ‘discovered’ her and supports her career with a lot of gusto. But to the point where everything she says, does, wears or sings is perfection it’s getting boring and fast.

The latest article is Gagaloo Breaks World Chart Record, with her latest single Alejandro going to number 9 in the World Chart it means that she has had 7 worldwide hits from her album The Fame Monster, surpassing Michael Jackson’s 6 from his Thriller album.

Yeah congrats Gaga, but releasing the same album twice and then a few remix tracks is not an achievement. What would be something to take notice of is if she took a break from tiring herself out touring, and put together a second album of fresh original tracks.

Anybody who’s anybody can have success with their initial album, what makes it an achievement is if the follow up is something her fans didn’t expect, something new and fresh because I am so BORED of hearing the same music over and over and over and over and over and over again.

It’s not as if I haven’t tried to get away from it listening to my own music, but put the radio on to hear the charts and there she is every other song.

And what I hate even more as I mentioned on my previous post Christina is Herself is how much everyone else is now ‘Gaga-esque’, and it’s bloody Perez’s fault for starting it. I hope he gets bought out

Soooo 2009 darling. Maybe I should find a new protege?

.

Well that’s just my opinion but I’m sick to my back teeth of it.

Heeeelllllloooo is there anybody else out there apart from Stefani Germanotta??

It explains so much

I was just browsing Vogue and what do you know on the front page there is an article on Diane Kruger.

It’s about her relationship with Karl Lagerfield, and it explains so much as to why she usually favours Chanel.

“He is like a stepfather to me. We’re very close- we just get on so well. I’ve known him since I was 16-years-old, ever since I first started modelling and he has always been so kind.”

I knew she had begun modelling when she was very young and how lucky for her to make such fast friends with one of the fashion industry’s biggest designers.

And on Chanel she says: “What’s not to love about Chanel? It’s timeless, it’s chic. I don’t know many people that don’t like it. I love it.”

One of my favourite looks on the Krug is the twenties style, which she did so well for the AMFAR Cinema Against Aids Charity Benefit in 2008 in a Chanel Haute Couture gown:

And even though this isn’t Chanel, when she stepped out in Jason Wu at the CDFA Fashion Awards in New York in 2009, it really showed just how a simple shaped dress and belt with those amazing power shoulders can make you stand out a mile.

“I’ve already experienced girls screaming my name, so I wouldn’t say it’s too alien, but I think Rob’s in a very difficult situation. He’s a friend and he’s a good guy. I know him, so I know for a fact that he wants to be known for his work.”

We're as cool as the Spice Girls were, apart from you Edith, you're just hardcore.

I love this picture. You know when your hair goes perfectly and your make-up goes on just right and you pick the right dress and you have great friends surrounding you, it is the recipe for a perfect night! Good times.

Me aged 3

I’m not one for bragging, but I was a majorly cute little kid. Yes the afro hair I hated in my later years, but it makes me look super fluffy ha. This was taken in the back garden of my Nan’s house that me and my cousins grew up in.
I miss her and I miss that place.

Day Nine – A Photo You Took

There are frickin’ loads of pictures I have taken, some good, some not so good. But this I feel shows off a lucky moment in time (well for me anyway) at a Beyonce concert in 2007, 5 rows from Sasha looking stunning in a dress after singing Flaws And All, and an angel comes down to give her a lovely hug. How canny I caught it just at the right moment.

Can I also just say how much I LOVE BEYONCE, I realise I haven’t spoken about her in my blog yet but if you know me then this is a given. Ha. I don’t care one bit how much of a geek that sounds. Bye for now.
