Hello! Pick up your TELEPHONE!

Telephone or DIE
So tomorrow is the day! Lady Gaga's new video for "Telephone" featuring Beyonce (the one and only lol) comes out! I happen to love this song! Every time it comes on the radio I get real FIERCE lol.

As you all know, I love Bey! She is my favorite female singer and is on her way to becoming a legend! I am coming to love Gaga as much. She has built herself as an artist so fast! It's rare that artist like Gaga come around. Ones that we can pin-point and remember everything that she has done.

So, tomorrow on "E" the video will premire.  I forgot what time (lol) I will edit the post when I find out. I just know it comes on the tv tomorrow!

People have been waiting for this video. Gaga fans and Beyonce fans alike have been tweeting and ranting about how much they want this video to come out. I am told it is gonna be EPIC. It betta be EPIC lol. As long as they have us waiting, I want to be "Wowed" lol.

Lady Gaga tweeted the other day that fans were outside her window screaming "Telephone or die". So yea, this is something to be excited about (esp. for the fans).

I found one of the video stills online. Bey looks FIERCE. Didn't find one of Gaga though.
So yea, this video betta be EPIC lol. I sure don't want them to fail on this one. They put us through
too much waiting.  

Music & Me...[[RIP MICHAEL]]

One of my favorite songs from Michael Jackson is "Music & Me". I love this song because it is the truth for some people. Music is a real force in the lives of some people. I know it was a real drive for this man.



Rest in Peace Michael....

Oldest Person in US dies at 114

Her names was Mary Josephine Ray and she was 114 and 294 days old.
She was the oldest person living in America but she died yesterday.
She was born May 17, 1895, in Bloomfield, Prince Edward Island, Canada. She moved to the United States at age 3. Her husband passed before her in 1967.
Survivors include two sons, eight grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren and five great-great grandchildren.

In a day and time where most American are living until their 60's and 80's, I want to know her secret.
I would love to live past the 100 year mark of my birth. RIP MARY!

Now the oldest person living in the US is Neva Morris, of Ames, Iowa, at age 114 years, 216 days. The oldest person in the world is Japan's Kama Chinen at age 114 years, 301 days.
Good God Almighty lol!

House of Dereon Spring/Summer 2010 Collection AD Campaign



The House of Dereon is showing us their new Spring and Summer 2010 collection and I think it's very pretty! Beyonce rocks a tight, fucshia dress with wavy ruffles on the side. It's one of my favorite looks in the 1:45 piece. I wish they would have showed us a bit more but I guess we'll have to look for ourselves on their website.

Dereon is slowly but surely coming up in the fashion world. Mama Tina and Bee are putting in hard work for this line. I happen to love their couture pieces. The every day wear (except for the jeans) not so much. I did just buy a Dereon handbag that is FIERCE for an every day bag though.

The time is here...[[OSCAR FASHIONS]]

Fashions @ the Oscars..
The 82nd Academy Awards (aka the Oscars) were held yesterday. I didn't get to watch most of the show because I was at work (so I missed Monique's win...was a bit upset about that but Monique doesn't pay my bills honey lol) when it came on. I really wanted to high light the fashions though. So other than Monique, Gabby, Lee and Avatar winning, I only cared about the FASHION lol.

Mariah Carey in Valentino
The gown is okay....
And I hope she doesn't think that just because she has on
Loubitans that she's doing something. They don't
even compliment the gown at all.
Accessories are on point though. Just wish the shoes went with the gown.


Miley Cyrus in Jenny Packham
The gown is a WOW!
At 17 she should not be wearing this gown though..
I know that she wants us to believe that she is maturing but...
it makes her look to old and she is so TRYING to prove her point
that she is getting older...I get it.
Hair and make up are lovely though!


Queen Latifa
The gown is by an unknown designer.
I just have a problem with the material the gown is made in.
It's wrinkled at the bottom...
I do love the way it fits her body though & her accessories are just on point!!


Zoe Saldana in Givenchy Couture
The top of the gown is LOVELY!
I am just very so, so about the bottom. It's couture so it only makes sense on the runway
Red carpet, not so much. Fashion is all about risk though so congrats to her on making one lol.


Jennifer Lopez in Armani Prive
The design of the gown is lovely!
Me and my sister both agree it looks like bubble wrap though...
Once agian, another person gets it right on the accessories! All hits!


Kristen Stewert in Monique Lhullier
 I love this gown, I love this look!
She doesn't have that many accessories on but that's okay.
If she did she would have flooded the look and it wouldn't be as great as it is.


Kate Winslet in Yves St. Laurent.
This woman usually gives me the GOODNESS with her fashions
last night this was just an okay look. The Jewels are GORG though!!


Penelope Cruz in Donna Karan
She is a FASHION ICON to me! Penelope always brings it FIERCE with her gowns
she never misses it on a red carpet. I love it and that's the end of that story. Say no more!


Meryl Streep in Chris March
THIS IS MY FAV ACTRESS OF ALL TIME!!!
I love her in this gown! The white is a wonderful color on her.
Meryl can do no wrong in my eyes lol.


Maggie Gyllenhall in Dries Van Notien
A fashion risk. Especially for the Oscars.
I don't know if you should wear print at the Oscars...sigh.
I am not a fan of this look.


Monique in Tadashi Shoji
I am so PROUD of Monique! She has come so far. I would never expect
her to win an Oscar if you had asked me that 8-10 years ago.
I love the way the gown fits her body & the color goes well with her brown skin.
I think she could have done without the hair accessorie though.


Anna Kendrick in Elie Saab couture
The gown is a BLAH color and I wish it was red. With her skin, if the dress was red, it would have been
GORG!!


Vera Farmiga in Marchesa
This is another example of runway couture being used on the red carpet.
I love the color of the gown but...all those ruffles are just..too much.


Gabourney Sidibe in Marchesa
Yaaassss!! I am really loving the gown that she is rocking! The gown fits her body so well!
Only thing I wish was that if her hair was more full. Overall the look is stunning.

I will talking about more of the
Oscar fashions tomorrow.
I have other post to do today
and so much to do today also.
More to come tomorrow!

Haute or Not...[[Fashions at the NAACP Awards]]

The NAACP Awards were healed on Sunday and let me tell you, it was a lovely show. All that chocolate skin in one room (with the exceptions of Sandra Bullock, Selena Gomez and others lol)!! The show was wonderful and the nominees that I wanted to win..Won. Yay!

I'm kinda upset that E News didn't do an episode of "Fashion Police" for the NAACP Awards. Other awards shows have a diffrent story. The Grammys, the SAG Awards, the Golden Globes etc. The day after the show was aired or happend, they did an episode of "Fashion Police".

I don't think I have to say why E News didn't choose to cover the fashions at the NAACP Awards...maybe they were just too..busy........NOT!

So, I am gonna do my own "episode" of "Fashion Police" via this computer lol.

First let me start with Ms. KeKe Palmer:
I loved her look for the night! She's giving us youth and fashion all at the same time! Here she shows that she can dress with the best of 'em and still keep it youthful and have a dual audience. Yellow is her color.

Keri Hilson is giving me Couture!!
I love this gown! It sexy! It's black! Her body can wear it (I hate when you see a red carpet gown and you know that heffa should not be in that!)! She looks FAB!!! I like her hair..LIKE! I think she should have went with an "up do". It would have added elegance (more) to the gown. Other than that..Go Keri!

And this is an example of my latter comment....Regina King...giiirrlll!

You know you should not be in this dress! A mess! She has a slight muscular body and the dress is not being displayed like it's supposed to. It just seems like she just threw it on. But I like she shoes.

Yaaasssssss! Anika Noni Rose aka Princess Tiana (I loved that movie by the way!) is so beautiful in this gown!

I love it! This is one of the looks of the night!! It is so BEAUTIFUL! Her hair is beautiful, the jewlery is on point as well. Everything about this look is wondeful! "Hi-five" to you girl (lol).

I don't know how I feel about this look....

I love me some Jill Scott but...I dunno. I am feeling the hair though! The dress not so much. It's not a red carpet dress. This is what you were out to dinner, on a dinner date. Nope Jill..you did not do it for me.

T. Ali (that's how I am gonna spell her name because I forgot how to lol) is very beautiful in her gown!

I love it. I would wear it. She looks beautiful. End of story.

Chandra Wilson is a wondeful actress...I love her character on "Grey's Anatomy" but I AM NOT LOVING THIS DRESS AT ALL! Girrrrrrlll...No!


It doesn't fit her right at all. She is a petite woman and I wish she would have showed her legs to give her some length. This gown is very drab. I still love her though.

More coming in tomorrow's post

Fan Convention for Michael in August


Fans Will Remember Michael.....ALWAYS

Numerous award shows have paid tribute to the KING OF MUSIC and in my opinion, ALLLL OF THEM WERE WACK! The BET Awards (even though they didn't have much time to do so) gave me nothing.

Ooo well excuse me. Michael's little sistah Janet was the only one who gave a righteous tribute to her big brother so scratch what I just said.

But all the other tributes were just....I can't.

In August the fans of Michael Jackson are putting on a "Fan Convention" on for him. I don't have many details yet about the convention but I am sure it will be good. Michael's family have signed on to be involved with the convention.

Everyone from his Mother, Katherine Jackson, to his cousins. And of course you know Jermaine will have something to do with it also. A lot of ppl are coming out of the woodwork trying to say the family is yet again trying to make $$ of of the passing of their fallen member. But you know what I say?

Go ahead Jacksons. If anyone should be making money off of Michael, it should be you guys.

I will post more about the convention when I get more details in another post.
