Epic Picture of the Day

Because only thing better than Marilyn Monroe is Marilyn Monroe taking pictures with a vintage Nikon.

Epic Picture of the Day

Because I don't know who these women are, but they are effing awesome.

Because he may have been annoyingly pretentious, but he's still Bob Dylan.

Mary Kate Olsen Covers September's Marie Claire

IDGAF what anyone says, Mary Kate Olsen aka THE OTHER ONE is a gorgeous little pixie from planet "WhereDidYewGetThoseShoes?!?" I haven't purchased a Marie Claire in the longest, but I will definitely be picking up this September issue featuring MK when it hits newstands in a few weeks. After all, If I can't buy those red glittery Givenchy boots, the least I can do is click my heels while staring at them and chanting "There's no place like Bergdorf's, There's no place like Bergdorf's, There's no place like Bergdorf's...".

When Smart Women Say Smart Things

In a recent interview with Britain's Daily Mirror, Italian actress and HBIC Monica Bellucci had this to say about the differences between working in Hollywood and working in Europe:
"I am always really surprised when an American director thinks about me because I'm not part of that business at all," she says. "I feel more at home in London, Paris and Rome...In America, people are really obsessed with VIPs and all those kinds of things.
In Europe it's much easier because everybody knows the difference between an actor and a persona.
"And here they're not obsessed with age and weight. Here, actresses can work for many, many years. In America you can be a great actress and have no work by the time you're 40.
This is a tragedy, so I don't want to live this tragedy."
Stunning Monica, who turns 46 next month, posed naked for Vanity Fair in Italy while pregnant with her daughter in protest at restrictive new laws in Italy concerning fertility treatment. Yet she says she is as insecure about her looks as most women.
"We are all the same," she smiles. "We all want to be young, beautiful and healthy. Nobody wants to be fat, sick and old. When I see elderly women with wrinkles who can deal with that in an intelligent way. I like that very much. I hope I'll be strong and intelligent enough to deal with that."
Talk about girl-crushing hard! Monica is easily one of my favorite actresses. Not only does she choose interresting roles, but always she seems very grounded and has a normal perception of reality. She's a goddess onscreen and off, and my only wish is that more women held her philisophy. Then again, if we all looked like Monica freakin' Bellucci, I don't think any woman would fear the aging process!

Epic Picture of the Day

Because the only thing more epic than Johnny Depp and Kate Moss, is Johnny Depp and Kate Moss in black and white.

M.I.A. Releases a New Video, "XXXO"

Ok so basically if you have $15 and can afford to blow it on one of those videos they make at the mall, then evidently you've got the makings for an M.I.A. music video. The Sri Lankan born artist just released her latest video, "XXXO" from her newest album "spacey-line suiggly emoticons that spell 'MAYA'" aka "/\/\/\Y/\" and, well, I'll leave it up to you to decide whether this video is worth your two pennies. Personally I used to worship the ground this bitch stomped on, but have grown a bit tired of her "I'm so enlightened" shenanigans. It's like, quit talking about how politically knowledgable and above it you are and just sing the damn songs already. If I wanted to be preached at by someone superior I'd see what Kanye West was up to. Or I'd look in the mirror. Whichever.
Love the song though. Even if I did already hear it on a previous episode of "So You Think You Can Dance". Yeah, that's right. The politically enlightened rented her song out to a corporate machine. What's up now M.I.A. you gorgeous hypocrite?

Epic Picture of the Day: Alison Mosshart

Because she doesn't give birth to babies, she gives birth to music.

Scarlett Johansson Says Yesterday is Here

Ok so I know this isn't exactly the most recent thing on Planet Earth, HOWEVER, the perfomance you are about to see involves two if the most awesome things ever to exist: Scarlett Johansson, and Tom Waits. From her critically acclaimed (by me) Tom Waits cover album "Anywhere I Lay My Head", I bring you ScarYoYo singing one of my favorite songs, "Yesterday is Here".
This song is way too smart for me. And I don't know if you know this, but I'm pretty damn smart(ass).
