The Powerful K-Fed

Detail magazine calls K-Fed one of this years top 50 most powerful men under 45. Are they smoking crack? This must make the rest of the people on the list feel either really really powerful of really really unpowerful and ashamed to be placed in the same list as him (ouch!)

I can think of a few things about him that are powerful!

1. his sperm - he does have like 100 kids from 12 different mothers
2. his begging techniques - he must have been pretty good at begging for Britney to have pulled him off the streets and put a house over his nappy ass head
3. the power of being black - oh wait he's white and just trashy ooops sorry!

P.S. I Love You

When I saw this movie trailer the other day, I thought the plotline seemed similar to a book I had read a couple years ago. Turns out, its was the movie version of a book I had read called "P.S. I Love You" also the title of the movie. The book was written by Irish author Cecilia Ahern and is one of many of her chick-lit books she has written. I thouroughly enjoyed P.S I love you the book and wonder if the movie will be any good. It looks as though they have changed quite a few things that were oringianlly in the book, I guess to make it more Hollywood. I stars Hillary Swank, Kathy Bates and Lisa Kudrow, so a pretty good cast and it is also produced by the same people who made "The Devil Wears Prada" - one of my personal favorites. Talk about intertextuality! The movie opens on Christmas for any of you that are interested.

Machine Building

Today my group just finished building our machine for project three, and I must say it does look quite fabulous. At first when we first got the assignment I did think Dr Griffin mgiht have been taking some sort of ellicit drug and had gone completely mad. However after having gone through this whold process I do see that there was a method to his madness. If we take any concept, any idea, you can see how our mind and bodies does work like a machine. Our sense triggers off something, that stimualtes something else, thats hits a switch in our brain and so on. It really does make sense now. love it!

Britney's Christmas Wish List

1. Underwear (I believe Victoria Secret have some sales going on at the moment, somthing like 5 for $25, I think these might be affordable considering the amount of money that Britney spends on other CRAP!)

2. A Stylist (This just shows that no matter how much money you have you still cant buy style or co-ordinate your own wardrobe)

3. A valid drivers liscense. (surely with amount of pictures taken of her on a daily basis she could get a hold of one or two and take it down to the DPS and get a valid liscense, theyre not expensive. And while she's at it maybe some driving lessons would serve her some good.

4. Hair (maybe she should have thought of this before shaving her hair off earlier this year. Maybe if Briney is a good girl, her old pal Jessica simpson will give her some of her signature hair extensions she created with celeb hairdresser Ken Paves.) ...Just a thought

5. A Sonic elite members card. ( It seems as though Britney spends way to much of her time and calorie intake at Sonic. Im sure by now she qualifies for elite memeber status. Perhaps she could even be the face od Sonic?

Merry Christmas Britney Spears

The Spice Girls: They're Back!!!!

It seems its like the Spice Girls reunion is taking the world by storm, especially in the UK. I believe their London concert sold out in a matter of seocnds and they are also the faces for Tesco's (a UK supermarket) for their holiday TV Ads. Take a look.





What I like about these Ads is that it is not just splashing the celebrity amongst the product and running around naked in skimpy outfits. These Ads actually show the Spice Girls using the product and interacting with them, like a normal person would do. There is also a little storyline tied into the Ads which is unusually for celebrities featured in Ads, usually advertisers just show some sexy picture of the celeb with the product and all it advertising. This, I think has had a little more creativity and thought put into it.

Project Runway

I must say Project Runway is one of the few reality shows that has an ounce of creativity connected to it. The contestants actually have to come up with designs, pick fabric, sew, and create a garment of clothing. I have seen some fabulous pieces created from that show, and most of the contestants are truely talented. It made me think a lot of project runway when my group was building our machine. We had to come up with the designs, then build the machine, choose materials, colors etc and function of the machine. I think Project Runway is a true form of creativity.

Marie Osmond: WTF????

It truely pisses me off that fat ass Marie Osmond got to the Finals of Dancing with the Stars, instead of Jennie Garth. I still cant quite get my head around it. She was awful the entire season. I dont understand why America would vote for a fat ass in a leotard? I am pleased that Helio and Julianne won, but I still cant get over Marie Osmonds lasting power. I blame Oprah. She had Marie Osmond and her entire incestual family on her show a couple of weeks ago, and we all know Oprah rules the Universe. Or maybe it was a symplathy vote that kept her in after her father past away a few weeks ago. Whatever the reason was, America made the wrong decision. After all she was the only final 4 not to get a perfect score. My heart goes out to Jennie Garth who really put her all in throughout the show and deserved to be in the finals. :( America is weird.

Ikea Commercial

I love this commercial for Ikea, with the tag line "Home is the most important place in the world". Not once do we see a product for Ikea and not only that it gives the consumer the idea that no matter what kind of house they live in, no matter how much money they have, wherever they live they can make their house a home with products from Ikea. It also gives off a great message, because no matter where you like, there really is no place live home.

Random, Useless Facts

1. The odds of being killed by falling out of bed are 1 in 2 million
2. The most popular sport as a topic for a film is boxing
3. Only 55% of Americans know the sun is a star
4. Cats urine glows under a black light
5. Spotted skunks do handstands before they spray
6. When Britney Spears books into hotels she uses the name "Allota Warmheart" so no one will recognise her
7. The Bible is the most sholifted book in the world
8. Apple seeds are poisonous
9. McDonalds is the worlds largest distributor of toys
10. Rats cant vomit, thats why rat poison works.

The World's....

The Worlds ugliest dog, his name is same.

how scary is that????

Talking Cat

Have you ever what your cat was talking about, but you just couldnt understand? Well this might give you some ideas about what your cat is saying! check it out!

Leona Lewis

This is a little present from across the pond. Leona Lewis was the winner of last year's X factor in the UK (The British version of American Idol). And in my opinion one of the best talents to come out of the one of these reality shows. And to top that she has actually been sucessful with her music career, unlike most of the people to come out of American Idol. In addition she is gorgeous, which is hard to say for many of the people that came from American Idol, they are just plain ugly or skanky, which Leona is neither. In the video clip ablove she sings her latest hit single "bleeding love" which I love. She kind of reminds me of a young Whitney Houston pre-drugs days. So this blog entry might break open the doors to success in the U.S or if not just a little taste of what is happening music-wise in the U.K. A lot less gangster rap (which I think is great).

So everyone go add this song to your Ipod playlists!!!

Blackout

So I guess she did it again. Britney managed to hit the top of the charts with her latest CD "Blackout". This just goes to show that none of this publicity can hurt her, it is just making her more money. I must say I did buy the CD and it is really good, one of Brits best in fact. Her sound on the CD is very dance/electro pop and has a track with Timbaland on it, which of course makes any artist a hit. I particularly like "Radar", "Piece of Me" and "Toy Soldier". So I guess she is doing something right in her life!

The Evolution of the Spice Girls

While Im on the topic of the Spice Girls. Has anyone seen their new video? I must say the song is a bit blah and not really reflective of the whole girl power image they had before. However it is the Spice Girls and many may not want to admit it, but they are music legends and their new single will undoubtedly do well. This song kind of reminds me of their 1999 single "Goodbye" in response to Geri (Ginger Spice's) departure from the group.



I find it amazing how much they have all changed since their early days and their first hit Wannabe. It just goes to show how much a stylist, makeup artist etc can really change a person. And OMG can you please check out Ginger spice's abs ( she just had a baby and looks amazing) Britney Spears take note! I did question why she was strutting around in a bra for the video, but hey if my stomach looked like that after I jsut had a baby I would probably flaunt my six pack too. Maybe Geri should change her nake to sporty spice.

Parenting 101

Ok listen up Britney. These are some of the things your kids might end up doing if you carry on behaving the way you have. Check out some of these kids...

Pay Phone? Where are they?

Has anyone noticed that there are no pay phones in America??? In London red pay phone boxes are everywhere on the high streets. Where are they here? I know its 2007 and everyone has a cell phone, but sometimes life doesnt always going according to plan. We can forget our cell phone at home, loose cell signal, get stranded...etc. I think it is dangerous not to have phones available on public streets. I think this move is ignorant and risky.

Fosse, Fosse, Fosse

This semester I took a class called "The Evolution of American Musical Theatre". For our final project we have to do a research paper on a particular musical. I chose "Chicago" directed and choreographed by Bob Fosse. Over the past few weeks I have been doing extensive research on the life on Fosse and his works. I found out through my research that "Chicago" at the time of its release in 1975 was not well received. Among many things, one of the main reasons why it wasnt well recieved by the public was because it was ahead of its time. When it was revived in 1997 it was a huge hit and the 2002 movie directed by Rob Marshall won an Academy Award for "Best Film".

This made me wonder if artist like Fosse, who was clearly an asset to the theatre industry knew that their ideas were too advanced for their time period. I wonder if Fosse knew that 30 years afetr he created "Chicago" that it would be a hit. After all many artists and their works arent really truely recognised and appreciated until after they die. If so, this just shows the creative genius that was Bob Fosse. To be able to create something and have it be sucessful so many years after it first was made, to me, shows real creativity.

Just some food for thought on my part.

Tila Tequila

Ok, I am having major problems with this show on MTV "A Shot a Love with Tila Tequila". It stars myspace star Tila Tequila (yeh apparently people who spend their lives on myspace are becoming celebrities and getting their own show on MTV wtf?) The whole point of the show is that Tila Tequila is bisexual and has to decide whether she likes boys or girls at the end of the show. But this is not my problem with the show. First of all its just a stupid concept for a TV show, but in addition the vulgarity on there is undescribable. It is just crude, graphic and simply unecessay. I remember I was fairly young when I started watching MTV, so Im sure there are still a lot of young kids watching MTV and wictnessing this trash. I think MTV need to re-evaluate their programming and maybe go back to their original concept of playing music videos. I cant remember the last time I even saw a music video. If it wasnt for the internet I dont think I would even see a music video. This has to be pretty bad for the music industry, because MTV has absolutely nothing to do with music anymore, its full of shit and nonsense like this pathetic reality show and many others. Sort it out MTV!!!!

Poetic Inspiration

Over the past few months I have met one of my best friends moms, friend. If that makes any sense, and she has truely made some sort of impact on the way I have begun to think recently. She gave me her book of poetry that she just had publsihed and I really was quite taken by it and it made me want to write something of my own. I will tell you right now I am no poet and dont want to be thought as one, but I thought I would give it a shot.

It is like drowning
When knwoing how to swim
A wave crashes over me
I find away to surface
The tide is strong and forces me under
I see the shore but it is a long swim before me.

So its no Shakespeare but it is a whirlwind of my thoughts, and what I am feeling right now. I am a senior at the moment and am having a hard time trying to grasp the concept of that in a few months ill be in the real world. Having to find a career path that suits me, and a job I love, a future I will be happy with is all part of what I am trying to come to terms with right now. The idea of rejection is a huge worry to me and part of what my poem is all about

Celebs Going Green (Oh Please)!!!!!

I guess the newest trend in celebville is making it seem like celebrities care about the environment. Take a look at the above Ad, it shows Kimora Lee Simmons drapped in Malachite. OK so I get it Malachite is a precious stone (from the earth) and they happen to be green (Go Green) get it?
Frankly, I think this is a mockery to environmentalists, obviously the last person you think about, when you think about going green is Kimora Lee Simmons. Im pretty sure Ive seen her driving a huge ass SUV (not so green) on her show. I think the only thing green that cross most celebrities minds is the green color of money.

Since anyone can "go green" here is my attempt at my own "go green" campaign.




Go Green...Hug a tree

The art of blogging

I know, I know. It looks like Ive taken a vacation away from blogging. The truth is, my damn blog is constantly on my mind and I am always thinking of things that I can add to it and make more interesting/creative. However the thing I seem to hate about it is that I dont have a computer in front of me everytime an idea sparks my mind. I like to jot down notes on old fashion paper and then transfer it at one time onto my blog. I like I might have been born in the wrong era. Although I do find thechnology useful, I do tend to prefer the more simplistic old fashioned route at times. Oh well, c'est la vie.

Vegas

Here is my very own Vegas ad with picture I took in Vegas!

Taste the Rainbow

My very own "Taste the Rainbow"

animal planet

Heres my attempt to create an animal planet ad.
p.s. I took the picture of the geese running across the road myself! woop woop

P. Diddy Porn

Recently P. Diddy was complaining that they banned his commercial for his cologne because it was too sexy. Well its not that its just "too sexy". The whole commercial is basically P. Diddy getting it on with some chick. I cant even remember what the commercial is about because all I saw in the commercial was naked-ness. Good job FCC, this is P. Diddy PORN!!!!

Fat Bitch

Tyra Banks is a crazy, fat bitch!!! I stumbled across this clip on you tube and I think it is the most bizare thing I have ever seen. She is screaming at the camera looking like a pig in a swimsuit. Is this what people are paying to watch??? Maybe if she hit the gym she wouldnt need to do a show about how fat she is in a swimsuit, I cant believe this is what TV has become. It is dispicable. Tyra Banks is the devil

Back to Basics

I love how this commercial uses people and not crazy special effects like a lot of commercials are doing these days. Even though its for a phone company and relates to technology, Talk Talk have used people and gone back to the basic theory that phones connect people. The commercial is focusedon the cool stuff phones can do these days with video and music and IMs. Its simple

Celebrity Perfumes

Arent people sick of Celebrities trying to bank by putting out a perfume? They all suck, they all smell like ass, so why do it? Christina Aguilera is the most recent celeb to jump on the perfume band wagon and I think its bad for her reputation. Christina Aguilera can actually sing so why bother with these stupid perfumes. In the case of Britney and J.Lo they might need the few extra dollars on perfume sales as their careers are clearly going no where!

Shopping Anyone?

I think we're lost, cereal is on aisle 3...Shopping anyone???

Home boy

Say hello to my little friend. Lets call him home boy. I made him out of a cigarette packet. Abd you thought smoking killed, but actually you can turn those deadly little sticks into something more creative!

Wayne Newton go back to Vegas

Week 2 of Dancing with the Stars showed another stiff performance from Wayne Newton, and not because he didnt stretch enough before the show. The man cant move!!!!!!!! there is so much restilin injected into his face and the rest of his body for that matter, its is preventing him from dancing properly. The only reason he didnt go home last night is because sick, crazy old ladies vote for him and the other loser that got voted off last night isn't even a star!!!

Britney's Custody LOSS

Looks like there will be no more dropping of little Jayden James, or driving for Sean Preston. They get to live with Daddy!!! Yay!!! Or not? Umm what was the judge thinking when he gave k-Fed full custody of the little rug rats? Has the world lost its mind. Frankly, K-Fed is just as bad as Britney if not worse. If Im not mistaken he walked out of his other kids form Shar Jackson to shack up with Britney and he was the one who was smoking pot in front of the kids. We just never here about K-feds shenanigans because the world could care less about that dead beat. The fact the courts gave him custody is mind boggling! Oh well, at least the kids might learns something, like roll up a dubie and rap badly instead of turning into pork pies like their mother.

Dont celebrities just make your life seem "not so bad"

Smoking Kills

So this is the newest ad campaign against smoking...not really! This is just an example of my phtographic abilities, prettty creative, I thought!

Semiotic Ad

This is a Diesel ad for "Antique Dirty Denim". In the ad the signifier is the elderly people sitting on the couch. The signified meaning is that the ad is for antique dirty denim and elderly people are old like antiques and therefore signify antique dirty denim

Heidi Montag...Who Cares???

So Heidi from the Hills in on the cover of this weeks US weekly talking about her plastic surgery. To be quite honest who cares? Did Britney not do anything stupid this week preventing her from making the cover? Heidi isnt even a celebrity she get about 10 seconds of air time on The Hills and I think her fat nose needed surgery anyways. Good God!!! Get a real job

Timbaland Video

I love this video. I think it is great how an rnb video can actually be pretty creative. Its no like one of Timbalands video containing pimp and hoes, or well...justin timberlake prancing around. I love how it is so simple and yet very creative.

Intertextuality

This is the commercial for Pizza Hut, advertising cheesy bites. This is an example of vertical intertextuality. The commercial has recreated a scene taken from the movie "Dukes of Hazard" starring Jessica Simpson. The commercial also makes the audience remember the original "Dukes of Hazzard" TV show by Simpson wearing hot pants and boots. Another example of vetical intertextuality is that the audiences recognizes the song "These Boots are Made for Walking" by Nancy Sinatra.

Stupidest Commercial

Because we all feel the need to drink Sprite after we swap swim suits, so stupid!

# 1 reason to use a condom

I think this commercial is great. Use a condom!

Gwen Stefani - HP Creativity

I love this commercial. It is one of those commercials that does have a celebrity in it, but she doesnt over power the commercials message. Also I like her definition on CREATIVITY and how the commercial itself is very creative. I particularly like how the ideas/pictures are following her, just like ideas follows us and flow out of us in life.

OJ Simpsons Arrest

How ironic would be if OJ Simpson finally got his ass slammed in jail? After getting away with murder, how much would it suck if he gets thrown in jail for breaking into a vegas hotel. Also how weird is it that this is all happenening the week his book "If I did it" was actually released, after much controversy? It all just seems like perfect timing for some more press attention.

Seth Green "Leave Chris Crocker Alone"

AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! This was the answer to Chris Crockers youtube video "leave britney alone", aired on The Soup. I particularly love the part where he re-touches his eyeliner. Such a classic! check it out!

Ryan Seacrest

Ryan Seacrest hosted the 2007 Emmy Awards. Is that all? When does the man sleep? He is on absolutely everything. He has a radio show, hosts E! news, he produces reality shows on E, he hosts American Idol. Good God!

"Leave Britney Alone"

This is this weeks #1 you tube video. I think it is the funniest video ever. It is also pretty creepy how far people are going on the whole Britney fiasco. This kid Chris Crocker is a trip...check it out!

The Legendary Miss Britney Spears? Or Not?

Forty -eight hours later and still rumors are flying about what happened to Britney's performance at Sunday nights MTV VMA's. Most people would agree that her performance was pretty much a train wreck and that she was out of shape. But then why are people still talking about it? Is she really just a talent-less fat ass or is she the biggest PR genius?

I have to say in Britneys defense that although she is no longer smoking hot and didnt look like this on Sunday night

She also did not look like this

At least we can be thankful she had hair.

But whatever Miss Spears did on Sunday night, she is defintely getting some press for it. She is on every magazine cover and mmm how coincidental that her album is released in a couple of months...OOps maybe she did it again...

ME!!!

• Hi, I'm Natalie Miro...yep thats me, over there on the right. Wave!

• I am from London, England. I believe its somewhere over by Canada, or so I was told by an American. Not too great on geograhy are you?

• In England we drink tea a lot and go visit the Queen. She's hot isn't she?

• People in England also like to pretend that they are completely miserable, they try to blame this on the lovely rainy weather we get, but really we just want to be like Victoria Beckham

• I also lived in the south of Spain for many years, in a place called Marbella. It really was a difficult part of my life, living on the Spanish Riviera and all!

I'm sure that is enough from me right now. You will get to know more about me over the next few months. Right now, I will leave you in the capable hands of my hero: Eric Cartman.
