janelle monae in teen vogue

teen vogue continues to be way more fun and way more diverse than vogue. i don't care that i am twice the age a teen vogue reader should be.


anyways, janelle monae is adorable.

princess di loves kanye west

so the late princess of wales loves the college dropout.
and you know what? so do i. i like the direction he's going in. sure, he's years behind björk when it comes to retrofutureasianrobot themes, but at least he's not stuck in the bikinis and benjamins school of hiphop videos.

stronger - kanye west


one question - when he asks me to be his "black kate moss" - is he asking me to:
a. be thin
b. snort coke
c. design affordable separates for topshop
d. be just generally fabulous and fashionable
e. all of the above


if you like your daft punk straight up and retro, then watch:
harder better faster stronger - daft punk

you won't believe the things i've seen

snapshots. worth a couple of thousand words, i hope.

the line and general chaos at the 5th avenue apple store - iPhone phever!



my incredibly foxy dentist.


this is what he uses to make my gums throb. i just try to mentally project myself into a hammock in fiji.










party on the roof of the gramcery park hotel, what what.


track of the day: things i've seen - spooks

this old world is a new world

yesterday morning i texted hrh:

me: i woke up with iPhone phever!
hrh: paging dr. jobs, paging dr. jobs.

then last night on spring street i saw two people sitting on chairs in front of the apple store. they're already lining up for the iPhone.

here is a song that reflects my mental state:

nina simone - feeling good


similarly:
muse - feeling good

the white stripes were on conan o'brien last week.
i missed it but caught it; that is the miracle of dvr.

you gotta be good, you gotta be strong, you gotta be two thousand places at once

a lot of things happened.



i went to see cheeseburger in brooklyn. they were great.



i ran into manu.



and seva.



at first it started sprinkling.



then it started pouring. then the power went out - so the band's set was over. we all went into greenpoint tavern and started drinking - giant "big gulp" style beers for $3.50!





tommy hung out.



tommy' s arm.



tommy's leg.



tommy's back.





friday - congee village.



zipang is sparkling sake. not recommended.



saturday - party in room 707 at the bowery hotel.







cherry got back.
















the terrace next door has a hot tub???





look, i know it's crazy, but i can't be in a bathroom and not have a photoshoot with myself. i mean seriously.








later i went to a sweaty dirty dance loft party on canal street.



i still had connect 4 in my bag from the hotel room party so i brought it out. people get super intense about connect 4, this guy was beating people left and right. but workhorse tore him down.















some blond kid is telling me "you're so beautiful" and trying to kiss me when this chick comes over and drags him away and starts yelling at him in swedish. he comes back to me and says "sorry, my sister says we have to leave now."

track of the day: two thousand places - the polyphonic spree
