Kylie : X

This is the official Album cover of Kylie Minogue's Tenth studio album

It's called 'X' .

Getit? Roman numeral for '10'...

Anyway, the first single and video is out. And she's as camp as ever.

And although she claims she's going deeper into 'pure dance', funny the lead-off song is kinda Indie rock.

In the video, she's slinky; just the way we love her.

But the song is, in my opinion, hardly a fire-starter. :-(

Her niche has always been dance-disco and her biggest albums and singles were of such a genre.

Her albums from the late 80's and 2000's , were. Think 'Locomotion' and 'Can't Get you Out of my Head'.

However, back in the early to late 90's, her career bombed into the doldrums because she switched to Indie-rock music.

Hasn't she learnt?

Victoria's Doggy Secret

Was having dinner in front of the TV ... I know... no life. LOL

Switched to Channel 5 ... And the network was playing
The High School Musical~ Concert.

C'mon man ! That sh*t should go to straight to Nickelodeon or something!

I mean, it's like, does the general population LOOK like they are stuck in pre-pubescence or something?

Saccharine sweet, overly idealistic, starry-eyed, the idolizing of some school-hunk/belle 'til the knees go weak.... cheer leader-meets-jock puppy love rubbish... whateva to spoil Prime Time television.

So suffice to say, I went machine-gun on the remote-control.

Well, turned up THIS Show here,

'It's me or The Dog~ with Victoria' caught my attention.

Can't help it, here is a nutcase who's really into documentaries ... and dawgs
:-P

It's kinda like 'The Nanny' but dealing with our furry best friends.

And I am smitten.

Victoria's got the talent with dog-training, I tell ya. Absolute genius. Totally professonal.

She's a good looker but that's not what comes across as distracting. Rather it's what she does on the show which is seriously impressive.

She know's her stuff. Her expertise is unquestionable.

Here is not someone who's on TV because of looks.

A real deal. A real show stopper .


So note this down and stick it on the fridge:
Central, 9 pm every Wed, 'It's me or the Dog'

Duck Drives

Still on the same tech-topic since I'm kinda shopping around for one right now...

I have to hand it to the Japanese.:-)

These Rubber Ducky thumb drives are insane!!!

Not quite sure if you can take them to the bath...

But what would people say when you whip one out?


LMAO.

In-FO and In-Style , too

Ok, apparently it's not just Imation who's on the bandwagon for making a Thumb drive hip to wear on the wrist.

So does Brando (never heard of them, actually) .

Features include:

-512MB of flash memory
-Easy to view, edit, and copy files
-Made of flexible rubber, soft, and comfortable
-Shockproof and moisture proof
-Small, light, and portable
-Low power consumption
-High durability
-Measures 210 x 17 x 8 mm and weighs only 16 grams

And Brando's slogan for this product (they are evidently very proud):

" Flash Drive Wrist Band can store the entire contents of its wearers brain"

WTH. WTF. What are we? Villiage Idiots?

Matter-of-factly, these Flash Drive Wrist Bands , as it's name suggests, looks closer to the colorful promo/charity/friendship etc. silicon bands that was so hot like, yesterday.

Still, being so multi-colored, and looking so, erm, tacky, it looks to be more 'youthful' if you're into it and 'carnival' if your not .

Either way, I don't see you wanting to be typing away on your lappie while on the bicycle, or during the middle of a roller coaster ride.

So suffice to say, leave this to the kids.

I'd have the Imation version anytime. :-)

'Geek' rhymes closer to 'Goof'. True, but I would think anyone will prefer to associate themselves with 'classy'.

It's no wonder Brando thinks its potential clientele are Idiots. ...

In-Fo and In-Style

Having IT so prevalent in modern-day living, being a geek just suddenly doesn't seem so out-of-place and frumpy any more. :-)


How to look good and be on-the-go but still having valuable resources, data and information at hand for that workaholic in you?

How about this: Imation' bracelet-thunbdrive.

Quoting: "Sized at 8.27in x .86in (thickest part of band) (210mm x 22mm (thickest part of band)), and available in Black and Blue band colors, this USB flash drive is a wearable bracelet.

If you're looking for a USB flash drive that you might not lose quite as easily, this one from Imation might just be the one you've been looking for. "

This, I'd get one anytime :0)

Tyra looks GREAT.

Modelling is a tough business.

Too many people have too many preconceptions of how models look like .... for real.

The camera can make one loads of money and bring \fame. But it too can bring you shame simply because it adds invisible kilos to your body... 2-3X your actual real-life size.

So, point is, 'less you're a starving runway model, you won't be and don't have to be reed thin.

To hell with people who think otherwise... b'cos it's people like them that make thousands of girls bend over their toilets throwing up everything they just ate.

They know NOTHING about the business.

And if you're a Supermodel like Tyra Banks (and one of the most influential ones at that), whose face and body are oh-so-famously-oooh-la-la, truth of the matter is, she's curvy. She's got the butt and boobs. The FACE.

Just like Gisele, Heidi, Adriana et al. They are not stick-thin.

Ever wondered why Kate Moss can never snag that multi-million dollar Victoria's Secret deal which every top model out there would kill to have? Getit?

'Return of the Curves' ... Rolling Stone magazine hollered.

So there.

Friendships never end. So do Grudges.

Tyra and Kimora at a game .. very recently. Just had to put them here. Besties.


A good pal asked me today.... so exactly WHO ARE YOUR FRIENDS ....


I donch have many enemies. :-)

We just have few true friends.

The others? Simple grudges.

B'cos if you're reading this... you're not likely my enemy to begin with yeah? LOL

I'm too easy to get a long with because I 'm easy goin and I don't discriminate. Period. Put it simply, I don't really size people up. I just let people be who they are and respect that.

I just feel that bearing hate on people is just too much an emotional burden. Life's got better things to care about.


Still have issues with me? Screw you. It's YOU then.

PaPa & MaMa-razzi

Papa-razzi: Looking at all the WRONG places for something ugly to talk about.

Mama-razzi: Looking at all the RIGHT places for something ugly to talk about.

Just like Real Mamas and Papas do . (Rolls eyes) ....

They rub salt into past wounds. And will revisit past faults like tourist destinations.

And I swear they love it !!!

Smells good

I've sampled both and I have to say... these are prolly the best in the market right now for those who want to Look Good and Smell Gorgeous.

Still, you'd better remember to take that bath for god's sakes. :)


For HOMME :


Davidoff Cool Water

Masculine. Suave. Confident. Energizing.

For FEMME:



Covet by Sarah Jessica Parker

Alluring. Sweet. Fresh. Sophisticated.

Research has shown that smelling good gives others the impression of you being confident and un-stressed.

So, if you wanna look cool, you better smell like one too. :-)

New Audi A3 ?

I've always been a big fan of Audi cars.

Their designs are clean and uncluttered. Sleek yet Muscular in shape and stance. An air of sophistication and the message that says 'I'm part of the executive crowd and I've arrived' look is undeniable.

Probably the only car manufacturer that truly knows how to exude 'high quality' and 'high engineering ' in the metal.

Anyway, a young chap like me is, needless to say, enthralled by small wonders that zip around in style and confidence.

So yeah, these are the pictures of Audi's MetroProject Quattro.

As it's name suggests, it a Metropolitan-dream. Compact, stylish, high-quality, sophisticated. And the icing being the application of Audi's famed Quattro (that's advanced 4WD for the uninitiated)system to give it sports-car like handling. WOOOO!!

And from the looks of it, the readiness of the whole package could mean this could well on its way to b'come the all-new Audi A3.

On all counts, I'm excited. :-)

Chocolate Martini

The jury is out. F-Bar's Chocolate Martini is heavenly.

Chocolate can make one high. Concoct that with Martini.... and you're high for good.

Strong stuff; sweet, intense, thick. Magnifique. :)

Think the aromatic mix of Bailey's kelua , with a lethal does of Martini and top it all with a rim of chocolate (say it in French accent and it'll sound sexier)



Well, I guess, F-Bar does need the fantastic DJ-music, the posh ambiance and something like this, the Chocolate Martini, to distract from the seriously bad service (2 hours and I couldn't get my card back... This being the umpteenth time I'm letting rip about this here. Hmmm. ).

Anyway, anyone reading this, have gotta try this pronto!

Just be warned F-Bar's screwed up service could dampen things a lil though.

But hey,
This drink, still, is Sinful on so many levels. :-)

Chocoloate is better than SEX? Well, with this one, you'll have the Chocolate ... and probably SEX too. WOOO !!!

:OP

Monsters being themselves

... Suffice to say, such EYE-SORES. Dig your eyes you..

Today was All-Hallows' Eve. (Halloween for blur-fucts. LOL)

And the clubs.... ever more than it already was... filled with POSERS who had the opportunity POSE even more. *

*3 Phenomenon observed:

1) Everyone wants to be a Victoria's Secret Angel. But only 1 or 2 looked like it.:) The rest looked more like Victoria's Secret Love-child-that-should-have-remained-a-Secret. 'Angels' goons, Getit? Not moths... You want onlookers to swoon not swat.

2) Scary Movie killer. You know... if you've got like ten others standing in front of you... they are called Scary Idiots. Good luck with those friends who insist on bringing the fella back home thinking that the stubbornness is a result of being drunk rather than mistaken identity.... (Are you high?)

3)When you're a regular club-goer, you tend to recognise faces. And you swear that with painted faces, white-washed or blood, wigs/ hats and all.... they actually looked better .... heehee

Indeed, MONSTERS pretending to be MONSTERS.

LMAO.



But I did spot a gem (sad isn't it ? The Cannery is hugh and yet there were more messed-up folks than dressed-up folks) : There was this siren in a lil black dress with glowing-red devil ears and 6-inch red stilettos. Nothing over the stop. Subtle and understated. And yet the theme was obviously 'Devil Wears Prada' ... got it ... and oh-so-stylish and sexy. Too bad her bf looked like a prop.


Well, at least when the smoke screen dissipates and the lights go back on... you'd have expected to see a messed-up toad rather than some should-have-been-a-hottie ... only to die of FRIGHT later on.... or worse find one beside your bed that next morning.




Monsters.

Basically, a night where many were ...themselves. ;p

Closet Continuum

I have a friend who just 'came out' of the closet if you know what I mean....

And there's no discrimination from me but a ton of R.E.S.P.E.C.T.

B'cos it takes a lot. More than just being brave and having the will. It's about finding yourself. And it's the hardest thing in the world.



Actually, sexuality is not definite but a continuum.
The level of desire as opposed to disdain for the opposite sex varies from person to person (even depending on time and situation!) only serves to exemplify the notion that sexuality should not be an issue in any context.

It is all but a senseless hype meant to be insensitive; showing a lack in understanding and benevolence.

Listen out and nod away:

>Males crave physical gratification.

>Females crave emotional gratification.

What this means is that a really 'handsome gal or a really 'pretty boy' could still whisk a 'straight-as-an-arrow' proclaimer off his/her feet, as long as this person' gratification is met.

In fact, the gratification itself (physical/emotional or both) is a continuum in it self.

So, quit the labelling b'cos we're all humans.


'Needs' are governed by personal norms while 'wants' are governed by social norms (and stigmas) .

So the rule of thumb? Don't discriminate b'cos you'r likely not that 'straight' after all...

Man of Steel

Djimon Hounsou.

(Pronounced as 'Deee-mon' not 'Di-gi-mon, the computer game/cartoon :-P)

Remember that name.

He who was spotted by famed fashion designer Thierry Mugler, way back. And his modelling career took off.

Think of him as a male Naomi Campbell; also one who was spotted off the streets and whisked away into the glam-world of High Fashion.

Ironically, it was not modelling but his love of acting and a critically-acclaimed career backed with a slew of Academy and Golden Globe nominations in the wake, that really brought him full-circle and back into the forefront of fashion campaigns.

Now, he's possibly the second only Black-male Supermodel since Tyson Beckford.

Although, it must be noted that while Beckford rose from anonymity, Hounsou was already a celebrity to begin with.

Not unlike like Beckford, however, whose mega modelling career was launched into the stratosphere when he fronted the Ralph Lauren Sport campaign back in the late Nineties. Hounsou's career is set to ignite because on February 24, 2007, it was announced that Hounsou will be the new Calvin Klein Underwear model.

Starting with the Fall 2007 season, he will be featured in the brand’s global print advertising campaign including the launch of their new Calvin Klein Steel product line.

Djimon now joins the ranks of Iman, Naomi, Tyra and Alek, and of course Tyson, in estblishing a break-through in the fashion industry.


He's become the only black male model ever, in the history of the provocative brand, to front its world famous Men's underwear campaign.

His association with 'Supermodel-hood' is even more apparent now that he's dating Supermodel-turned-head designer for Baby Phat, and bestie to Tyra Banks, Kimora Lee Simmons.



Hats off.

HIPPOS... big FAT HIPPOS

Whatta blatant case of hypocritism.

They act and react one way but they give you sh*t responses and feedback b'cos they just want to thumb you down.

Go ahead.

This is but the tip of the ice-berg coming your way.
You're lucky I've been so busy recently that I've not had the time to rant here.

If it was on the day itself, that day, this would have been terminal.

HIPPO-crites.

BIG FAT HIPPOS.

You don't have to kiss my A**. Kiss your own.

Ultra is an AUTOMATIC Hit

The Ultra Dance Diva is back.

After a 5-year hiatus, she's still the reason why Maddie or Cher will never gain her level of credibility in the genre.

She who can be as camp as Geri or Kylie and not be associated with 'fever' or 'disco'.

Don't get confused however, for Ultra does House music; not your regular pop/dance affair.

Since both album and lead-off single are hotter-than-hot, I'll rave about each.:-)

The lead-off single and video 'Automatic' is a remake of the Pointer Sister's early Eighties hit.

But Ultra injects her royal sexy huskiness into it like none other. Think a deeper Macy Gray meets Erykah Badu sensibiities and Tina Turner rock-chic.

The electro-synth and aura which only Ultra can deliver is evident. But this time, with new influences and confidence, she injects a come-hitherness to great affect, making this song a smouldering trail blazer for acts to come.

If there is one aritst who's capable of making an old hit become a new and bigger hit, other than Whitney Houston, Ultra's it.

For the video, not seeing it is as sinful as the video itself.

It indeed brings the exact meaning to the song 'Video killed the Radio star'.

Not unlike George Michael's 'Freeek', where he coos about Cyber Sex, one moment, she's a leather Dominatrix and next she's a disturbing Blow Doll.

Then of course, she had male models with perfect pecs going orgasmic in front of their lap tops (but isnt' leaving your lapie down there bad for your ,erm, jewels, no?)YouTube ratings are through the roof for good reason.

For the GST album (laugh but whatta clumsy name just like Gwen Stefani's 'Love Angel Music Baby' album), the first single 'Automatic' went straight to #1 on both the Digital Downloads chart as well as the Billboard Dance Chart. And the second single, 'Love's the Only Drug' is in the Top 3 already too.

So, nuff said, this album is spanking good. ^^

More progressive yes, but all hail a welcome return for a dance legend who has been sorely missing over the past few years.

Breathless ...

• The electrifying sense of liberation.


• The hyperventilation.


• The relief.


• The confusion.


• The satisfaction.


• The intensity.


• The insatiability.

You want to scream. But you find no voice in there.....

S'Wonderful . The bliss.:)

You're my Fantasy Angel :)

German Supermodel Heidi Klum: Fantasy Angel Bra (and panty) 2004 (US $9 million)

American Supermodel Tyra Banks: Fantasy Angel Bra (and belt) 2005 (US $11 million)

Brazilian Supermodel Gisele Bundchen: Fantasy Angel Bra (and belt) 2006 (US$10 million)

Czech Supermodel Karolina Kurkova: Fantasy Angel Bra 2007 (US$9 million)

Since we're on the topic of Victoria's Secret....
If you have an average of at least US$10 million to spare for sexy lingerie (who does? 'Cos even Mrs. Gates wouldn't spend this much to steam up Bill's glasses)
and have one hella body (pls be sure to send your pictures to my email, thank Q . LOL).

These following Diamond-encrusted bras from Victoria's Secrets' world famous

Fantasy Angel collection should suit your budget. ;-P



Every year, one Angel (a.k.a a Supermodel with a VS contract)will don the Fantasy angel bra.



Most prrrreeeeety things will stick with their EROs and Triumphs and eat their hearts out.



For me.... Thank Gawd, for a guy, I only have to Ogle !!!



LMAO.

Spice Re-Union Flag

Today: Sexy-Sophistication. Lookin for a good time.

Then: Girls are girls. Brash and loud. Had a good time.

It's been over a full decade since they first dominated pop-culture.... Ginger, Scary, Baby, Sporty and Posh are 'bout to make a Girl Power-smashin again. :P

They are one of those teenage crushes we all hate to admit we had.

'Wannabe' , '2 Become 1' , 'Viva Forever' et al ....a slew of international #1-hits.

We made it happen. The fans sent it all right up there into the stratosphere.

So admit. We all love to hate them. But we DON'T.

With flagging careers and many more mouths to feed (how many babies again? Not including Baby Spice), they are going back on tour.

No more ego-trips like 'I'm gonna make it on my own and so I don't need you' cattiness.

No more sore-denials like " She didn't sing that much anyway' rebuttals.

And finally, a Greatest Hits album will be out pronto.

So many #1 hits. So many #1 albums. It's a spicy wonder in itself why the heck these sistas are taking so long to sum it up .

Well, if you want it to end on a high note (and what a long note it has been), end it by being the feature-artist on the world-famous Victoria's Secret fashion show.

Millions will be tuning in. The exposure (pun fully intended) is massive. Typical Spice Girl hype.

Guess these Spicy Mamas won't be the ones wearing the least clothes this time round eh?

LOL .
(Remember how in the Viva Forever music video where the girls had lil fairy wings? Now that will be cute.^^)

Find the Paradise within

I know of a few individuals (friends, foe or otherwise LOL) ..... Who are always ANGRY.

It's like, they cannot find peace within themselves. They can't find tranquility in their lives.

They are constantly at odds with the quirks of life and people around them.

God bless them b'cos these souls are so unhappy all the time (!).

I do not think any individual in this world is 'blessed' in being surrounded by 'nice people' or 'good situations' . But what makes these 'lucky' individuals have the ability to live in harmony with their surroundings is that they have the discipline to :

• be positive,



• be perky,



• be at ease with the unknown and uncomfortable



• have the maturity not to be riled



• upkeep a strong self-esteem



• let-live and to 'shove it off'



• not dwell in self pity and indulgent -anger



• WANT to be happy
  

Otherwise, if you're constantly having too many issues with too many things , circumstances and people around you, perhaps its you who is at odds with the World at large and not the other way around.
Pick up the pieces. Resolve it.

This world is not perfect; no perfect beings and situations.

The butterflies, flowers and rainbow-by-the-waterfall, is really a buffer environment within yourself which you must create in order to live in ...

HAPPINESS. ^^

Aaaaaaa... Prada :)

Question #1) Will I want one?

>Answer: Of Cox!!! It's sleek. It's sexy. It's techy. Being a tehcno-geek has never been more chic.

Question #2) When will it come around?

>>Answer: Some time next year. Shucks...

Question #3) Can I afford one?

>>>Answer: Watch this space. :op

.... .... ..... kah ching !:)^^

See... It's smaller, sexier and way more techno-glamo than the Apple iPhone. Period.

heh heh.

B'cos IF i was to go down as a geek, I'd go down in STYLE.

Impreza.... Impressed ?

The Original Icon : The Subaru Impreza WRX STI (R320 version)

The New Icon : The Subaru Impreza WRX STI (new)

The old Subaru Impreza was ICONIC.

The WRX/WRX STI version is World Rally Championship (WRC) champion bar-non.

Years on years of ultimate dominance over other makes from Mitsubishi (EVO), Renault (Clio) and Peugeot (206cc).

Symmetrical four-wheel drive and thumping turbo. World famous technological tour de force.

I term it :

"A Fusion of Technology and Personality"

It's been the ultimate Ah Beng/Ah lian's Dream Machine. (Not that they can afford one .. dream, getit?) .

It's probably the one car that has achieved Cult status in recent years.

Having fan clubs all over the world .. having morphed by all kind of mods and colors.

Distasteful or othewise. ... :p

Then THIS.

The one biggest Revolution to the ICON.

Past versions were all evolutions of a successful original .

This is The all New Impreza WRX STI.

Love it? It's now about GRACE. PACE. FACE. SPACE.

No longer in-your-face Brash.

Supposedly meant to have a wider appeal. To the now-grown-up teenager who grew up drooling but cannot afford one .... to the wild girl who thinks a Beetle is way too poser-ish. To the suited business man who has the edge and will yawn being seen in a normal family sedan.

Love it or hate it at first sight... it'll grow on you. :op

Not as inviting or enticing like the way its sexy predessor was... but at least... you'd be less stigmatised.. being seen in one ... when you drive up front to a hotel lobby.

Herald the new ICON. :-)

Impressed???

Messy hair ~The Converse Lesson

Let's face it, we all hate it when we wake up in the morning... feeling like a ton of lead .... and it's just such a hassle to have to spend time n N-R-G to wash up and groom.

And it just perturbs me if I have to wax my hair... the feeling is not comfortable to say the least.

And if you're not in the mood, you'll tear your hair out. And end up with a bad hair day for the rest of the day. And the wax remains as uncomfortable as ever at the end of the long day.

Bleah. :OP

So... lucky for me... being a guy, I can walk around in base ball caps.

And for me, its either messy-wax hair or flat hair with a Converse cap on.

See me in none other . :-)

ha ha .

And yeash, I like mine BLACK . My lil black... cap. :)

Dopie Dawgs

Still on Dopies....

I was sufing their official http://www.terraplana.com/ for more cool stuff and I came across downloads for their recent ads.
