Justin Timberlake is bringing MySpace back!!

Justin Timberlake's life imitates art as he lands an ownership stake in Myspace

 

Justin Timberlake – pop superstar and actor in The Social Network – has got an ownership stake in onetime Facebook rival Myspace, which was acquired today by online ad company Specific Media from News Corp. for a reported $35 million.
In the deal, Specific Media announced that Timberlake, along with his ownership stake, would “play a major role in developing the creative direction and strategy for the company moving forward.” In the same release, Timberlake said, “There’s a need for a place where fans can go to interact with their favorite entertainers, listen to music, watch videos, share and discover cool stuff and just connect. Myspace has the potential to be that place…. I’m excited to help revitalize Myspace by using its social media platform to bring artists and fans together in one community.”
How Timberlake would accomplish that goal wasn’t clear; Specific Media simply stated he and the company would reveal their plans “in an exclusive press conference later this summer.” One thing is for sure: Timberlake managed to discover a way to make conversations with Mark Zuckerberg even more awkward than they already are.

cheryl cole Goes Blonde....

Well here you are folks the first look at Chery Cole's new hair do what do you think?
I'm getting a Very Jennifer Aniston look don't you agree?
I mean it's nice and she suits it but doesn't it remind you of "The Rachel" haircut that was huge in the 90s thanks to Jennifer Aniston when she was in Friends but the 2011 version?
Suppose no what she did it would still make the headlines and be copied by women up and down the country quicker than the sales of Nadines solo album....
As for the press and the bloggers they have gone crazy suggesting that she may well have something new to promote or she is mentally unstable and might even end up doing a Britney.
I mean come on people I know I'm not her biggest fan but I'm pretty sure she is no where near that stage yet (just give her a few more months) hehe others are saying it's for her big 28th birthday party.
(Yes that's right she is only 28) fucking bitch...

Whatever the reason she looks good and you got to give her credit for that at least.
Although I'm not a massive fan I do feel she has been treated unfairly and deserves to be left alone to decide what she wants to do and as for the hair anything is an improvement on that MAAhoooosive hair she had in the States....! Can I get an amen..!

Prints..Prints..Prints..

All the big designers including Paul Smith, Givenchy and Dolce and Gabanna are going wild for big prints for their spring/Summer 2012 collections not that it's a bad thing I actually like most of it...
Won't see it filtered down to the high street for a while tho...so if you can afford it get it now while it's hot...hot..hot..!!!

Princess Di is Turning 50

You may or may not have heard of the controversy surrounding the most recent cover of Newsweek.You know, the one where they superimposed her image next to Kate Middleton and aged her up..

My question: Is this controversial? Do you think Newsweek should have published this?

The article in the magazine about Diana goes on a two-page hypothetical journey about what her life would have been like if the car crash never happened. Tina Brown imagines how Diana would even interact with Kate Middleton. She says it would have been difficult at first but she would have probably been "BFF" with Carole Middleton, Kate's mother. Yet, she offers this little gem, "Her edge over Kate, of course, was her own epic of princessly suffering, which would always make Diana’s story more interesting. (“Happily ever after” will never have the same allure to the press as “It all went horribly wrong.”)."

Brown is no fortune teller. I find it hard to believe that Diana and Kate wouldn't bond over mutual distrust of the paparazzi. They both contribute extensively to charities. Kate and William asked that in lieu of wedding gifts, they created a Wedding Charity Fund that ultimately raised over a million pounds.

Floating on the wave of Diana's fame comes news of a book called Untold Story: A Novel by Monica Ali. It explores a world where she never died, instead, she faked her own death by drowning. User reviews put it on the fence but I'm curious enough to wonder how a famous princess can get accustomed to living in a rural Pennsylvania town called Kensington.

NU Music: Going Down in La La Land

I actually forgot to post this the other day...can't even remember that much about it sorry but it's a great song from a rising unsigned artist who's song will feature in a new movie...oh I will get back to you on this one...im so bad...

Horsemeat Disco III The 3rd compilation......mini mix

 WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
 Part 3 of the legendary Horse meat Disco Compilations is finally ready!!!out on the 4th of July...!!
This is fantastic news as I have been feeling at a bit of a loss recently having not heard anything from them for a while but all is not lost tho.

It's time to get your disco pants on and shake your shimmy it's a move towards a more upbeat eclectro 80s disco sound with some rarities thrown into the mix.
Which I'm just loving that will be sure to fill the dancefloor of any good club it's played in no matter what city it is in the world from Berlin to London, Manchester or even Glasgow it's just that kinda vibe this sort of music creates and the guy's of HMD themselves help to create.

HOT TO TROT ...BABY!!!
To say I'm excited about this is a bit of understatement as anyone who knows me well knows I'm a huge HMD fan have been for years and always make a point of going to every event they have in Glasgow.
The launch party for the album will be Berlin at Tape nightclub on July 9th which is sure to be an absolute crazy night..

Our letter to Andy

Our letter to Andy,

What I'm posting comes from the heart and I'm sure many others feel the same way, so I will refer to me as we.

Lately, there hasn't been much word on how you're doing but we respect your privacy and the respite with which you are taking and experiencing anew.

Our thoughts are with you in your daily journey. Take time to enjoy the smaller things in life that usually are overlooked and most times become the most important and precious to us. We pray that you keep up that great spirit of yours; for it is in our fight that we all become stronger, wiser and more resilient in order to triumph over adversity. Remember to take each day in easy pleasure and contentment. Again, know that our prayers and wishes go out to you and your family. And please, find comfort, love and happiness in all you do. 

Lastly, we thank you for your inspiration given to us on-screen but more so off-screen.

God Bless you and your family!

Hugs,

Us

River Island and the feather hat

Someone at River Island is having a laugh surely going by there new spring/summer range that I just seen on their website.
American Indian style feather hats??..yes they may well look good on a John Galliano or D&G runway show but not in your local RI I mean what are they thinking? do they not realise who their  target customer is anymore?
Topman seems to be the only high street retailer that is getting it right just now by not following every single trend or style from the big main designers but instead taking influence from it which seems to be working unlike River Island who just seem a bit lost.

I may seem a bit a bit harsh because maybe they intended for them to worn at a festival like Glastonbury or T in the Park but even then you would still look like a twat in a bad hat.

Reawakening From Hibernation to Find I am Sad & Bitter

My favorite beautiful, blonde hunk of eye candy, James Bond himself, Daniel Craig is married. Ughhhhhhhhh. Possible reasons?

A. He actually really loves Rachel Weisz (The Lovely Bones, The Constant Gardener) and really does want to make her happy. (Psht, yea right. I will *NEVER* believe this. ;( )
B. She's pregnant!

Just think about it. They've only been seen together for the past few months. They recently shot a movie together; the super long hours on set, the months spent preparing and anticipating the role and ultimately having to portray a convincing married couple. The passion of it all! The chemistry!

It took 4 years for Darren Aronofsky to propose when he did in 2005 and less than a year later, her son Henry was born. I'm sensing a pattern here.

Bmw m3 Coupe

The E46 model truly reinforced the M3 as the class leader when it was launched in 2000. Its 3.2-litre six-cylinder engine now produced 343hp and, with its enhanced chassis and dynamic capabilities, saw off rival product with ease in both Coupé and Convertible form. The introduction of the M3 CSL upped the ante with its extensive use of aluminium and composite panels, an engine performance boost to 360hp and bespoke tyres. The CSL was a real racer for the road. An M3 CS closed the E46 M3 chapter and catered for those wanting the performance brakes and other CSL enhancements but without some of the more extreme and costly weight-saving features. The new E92 BMW M3 goes on sale in the UK on 8 September, 2007,

Bmw m3 CoupeThe spellbinding steering precision right from the factory can be improved a few shades more by the 25-millimetre lower suspension setting at the front axle and 15-millimetre lower suspension at the rear. The H&R development team has also taken care to ensure that the spring kit harmonises perfectly with the adjustable dampers, an optional extra, so you can be sure of a comfortable ride, even with the sporty setup. Better traction also facilitates higher cornering speeds – even on hairpin bends and when changing direction quickly.

Some test drivers believe the car’s tuning places too much emphasis on comfort in comparison with its competitors – this can be sharpened up by adding an H&R spring kit.

Jean Paul Gaultier men's Spring/Summer 2012

 Classic Jackets and tailoring combined with Hawaiian prints and tartan all mixed up in formal evening wear in signature Gaultier style which I adore especially that buckle fastening vest that's just adorable.
My only concern tho would be the Hawaiian prints, haven't we seen that before recently from Dolce and Gabbana?
Apart from that it's a great collection that works well together or separately.
Which is coming in a separate post but you can look on the older posts on the right for the post I did on D&G's Hawaiian prints.
