CHAIN ME UP!!!


Word up, dawg! Damn... I am beat up! I haven't freaking slept yet, y'all! Went out partying again last night. Met Nose at The Cannery bout half past midnight and then Sean came down later at about 1am. Hung out at One Nite a lil, till about 2.15am and then we headed on to MOS.
So Naz, Nose, Sean and myself hung out at PURE @ MOS till about 4am. There we met some of our tweakers and some other ppl we had not met in decades!!! Felt nice to see them all again. Then before the party ended we had to make an exit and headed on down to Living Room. Saw Shafiq there and hung out a bit.
Bout 5.45am we decided to leave and went to Fitri's place to chill and loosen up. Hung out there for a bit and then we left at 7.30am cos Nose had to work. So while Nose headed on straight to work (without sleeping at all), Naz and myself headed home.
Back home I just couldn't get to sleep at all, y'all! It's super fucking fucked up but yeah that's da bomb. The real shit, I'm talking about! It's now 1806hrs and I still can't sleep and I'm supposed to meet Nose late at about 8ish to head on down to ZOUK for the DMC World D.J Championships 2007 to show some love and support for a friend.
I just hope that I will have the strength and energy. Where's my RED BULL???!!! Ahakz! Ok, that was lame! Anyways, I gotta go! Peace out.

PARTY ON!!!

Saturday was a blast! I had super fun! Hehe! Ain't nothing like good ol' partying. Yunos picked me up from my place and we headed on down to The Tuck Shop at Duxton Road. It was a nice lil chill-out bar with very acid-jazz/chillout tunes played. Had a beer then headed on down to HOME cos we heard there was a guest D.J from Switzerland spinning. It was very trancy music that he was spinning there.. a lil too hard for my ears but after a while it got better! We had obviously changed our plans. Cos initially we had planned to go to Naz's bar for a drink but decided not to. So Naz came to meet us at HOME after she got off work. Then Sean, Dee Dee, Narfi, Don and Vincent came as well.

Just a lil after 4am we decided to head back to Sean's place for more partying. Stayed at Sean's crib till bout 10am (Sunday morning) and then Don called and asked where we were and asked us over to his place. So we left Sean sleeping and headed on to Don's place. Back at Don's crib we chilled out while Don spinned some music. That's Don in action ------>






God, I need to stop this lifestyle!!!


P/S: Got more pics from the weekend will post em later. I am gonna die any minute. I so need my bed!!!! Sob! Sob! Write tomorrow!!!

SUPERMODELS

I was surfing the net and somehow came across an episode of The Tyra Show where Tyra confronted Naomi on their ancient feud, which led me to surf stuff on other models and I began to wonder what the big deal with supermodels are and why the hell am I sooooooo darn fascinated with em. So figured I would look em up. Having done all the shit I decided to blog it.

Ever wondered how the term supermodel even came about? I did... here's the scoop!

A supermodel is a highly-paid elite fashion model who usually has a worldwide reputation and often a background in haute couture and commercial modeling. The elite models who are given the appellation of "supermodel" often share similar traits. These models are reputable in the fashion industry; usually work for top fashion designers and labels; have multi-million dollar contracts, endorsements and campaigns; and most importantly, have branded themselves to be household names associated to their modeling profession. The true supermodels were known on a first-name basis. The term "supermodel" took hold in the popular culture of the 1980s and 1990s. However, according to Model: The Ugly Business of Beautiful Women by Michael Gross, the first known use of the term "supermodel" was in the 1940s by an agent named Clyde Matthew Dessner in a "how-to" book he wrote about modeling.
Now, I'm sure you have watched the first one or two seasons of America's Next Top Model, where Tyra introduces Janice Dickinson as 'The First Supermodel' right? She's wrong! The only reason why Janice Dickinson was labelled as THE first supermodel is because Dickinson has frequently laid claim to being the originator of the term. In an interview with ET, Janice Dickinson claimed to have coined the term "supermodel" back in 1979, when she was taking every job available. According to her, her agent Monique Pilar of Elite Modeling Agency, asked her, "Janice, who do you think you are? Superman?". She replied saying, "No... I'm a supermodel, honey, and you will refer to me as a supermodel and you will start a supermodel division." Dickinson claimed to be the first supermodel, "because I did everything".

Here is the actual fact. The very first supermodel was Lisa Fonssagrives.
She is considered by most in the fashion industry as the world's first supermodel. Fonssagrives was in most of the major fashion and general interest magazines from the 1930s to the 1950s, including Town & Country, Life, Vogue, the original Vanity Fair and Time. The relationship between her image on over 200 Vogue covers and her name recognition led to the future importance of Vogue in shaping future supermodels.
It was after her that a barrage of supermodels follwed making a name for themselves in the fashion industry. In 1968, an article in Glamour described Twiggy,
Cheryl Tiegs, Veruschka, Jean Shrimpton ,

and fifteen other top models as "supermodels". The term supermodel gained currency in the 1960s by analogy with Andy Warhol's "Superstars". Of the prominent models of the 1960s, Twiggy (Lesley Hornby) is an example of a supermodel of the era, as is Donyale Luna

the first African American model to appear in Vogue. Following suit in Donyale's trend, Beverly Johnson

was the first African American model to be on the cover of American Vogue. In the 1970s, some models became more prominent as their names became more recognizable to the general public. These models included Janice Dickinson (credited herself in 2003 as being the first supermodel and claims to have coined the term "supermodel"),


Iman Abdulmajid ,Gia Caranji (who died of a drug overdose) andChristie Brinkley ,

In the 1980s, fashion designers began advertising on television and billboards. Models became more familiar to the masses. They were no longer nameless individuals. Models embraced old-style glamour, which allowed them to replace actresses as symbols of luxury and wealth. In this regard, many viewed supermodels not so much as individuals but as images.

By the 1990s, supermodels became prominent in the media. Earning the title "supermodel" meant that the model was a superstar, winning fame simply for being a "personality". They did talk shows. They were cited in gossip columns. They partied at the trendiest nightspots. They landed movie roles. They inspired franchises. They dated or married movie stars. And, of course, they made millions. "We don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day." uttered by supermodel Linda Evangelista has become the most famous quote in modeling history. Fame allowed them to take control of their careers, market themselves, and earn higher fees. In 1991, Christy Turlington signed a contract with Maybelline that paid her $800,000 for twelve days' work each year.

Four years later, Claudia Schiffer reportedly earned $12 million for her various modeling assignments. Authorities ranging from Karl Lagerfield to TIME magazine had declared the supermodels more glamorous than movie stars. "SIX", also known as the "Big Six" were officially anointed by the fashion world as supermodels, they are
Claudia Schiffer,

Cindy Crawford,

Kate Moss (who inspired the 'waif' look),
and "The Trinity" made up of Linda Evangelista,Naomi Campbell,

and Christy Turlington.


In the mid-1990s, male models became popular and a few have been referred to as supermodels, such as Marcus Schenkenberg

and Tyson Beckford (or better known as Tyrese).

In the late 1990s, models were slowly being replaced by actresses, pop singers, or other celebrities on the covers of fashion magazines and ad campaigns. The rise of celebrity culture relegated many models to anonymity. A popular "conspiracy theory" explaining the supermodel's disappearance is that designers and fashion editors were sick of their "I won't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day" attitude and made sure a small group of models would never again have the power of the Big Six. However, Charles Gandee, associate editor at Vogue, said, high prices and poor attitudes contributed less to the decline of the supermodel. As clothes became less flashy, designers turned to models who were less glamorous, so they wouldn't overpower the clothing. Majority of the models come from non-English speaking countries and cultures, making the cross over to mainstream spokesperson and cover star difficult. Runways are not as high-paying jobs as it used to be. It is now considered an internship process for the hundreds of anonymous girls who swarm the runways of New York, Paris and Milan each season. They are paid about $250 an hour on their first season. The opportunities for super stardom were waning in the modeling world.

In 2006, only one model made the cover of Vogue, and that was Linda Evangelista . Despite the prior decline, a new set of models became household names and are referred to as supermodels. Mostly, modeled for Victoria's Secret, which include Gisele Bundchen
Heidi Klum,


Adriana Lima,
and Tyra Banks.

However, according to Sean Patterson, president of Wilhelmina Models, New York,

"The fashion industry has shied away from models for so long that advertisers seeking a well-known face have to go back to supermodels like Ms. Turlington or Ms. Campbell or Ms. Moss....The industry hasn't allowed a new set of supermodels to be created."

During the mid-2000s and even today, fashion was again warming up to models. In 2007, Vogue has had so far 2 covers with models. The May 2007 issue showed the top 10 "World's Next Top Models", with names including Coco Rocha,

Jessica Stam,

Agyness Deyn,(voted Best New Model and rumoured to be the New Kate Moss)

and Hilary Rhoda.In the July 2007 issue, Natalia Vodianova graced the cover.
The spark returning to supermodel-dom was arguably due to the rise of Australian top model Gemma Ward,

whose alienesque beauty spawned a new trend in fashion, much like Kate Moss. Sarah Mower, editor at style.com, made this quote in her review of the Fall 2007 John Galliano fashion show:


"... and there were the girls, striking totally convincing attitudes, as if no one could teach them a thing about absinthe drinking or streetwalking. Who knew this supposedly blank generation of Sashas, Lilys, and Cocos had it in them to act up like a bunch of old-school supermodels? That, like the clothes, seemed a flashback to everything that made Galliano good in his first years in Paris."

(Referring to Russian model Sasha Pivovarova,

the British duo Lily Cole,
and Lily Donaldson


and Canadian Coco Rocha respectively.


So, there you have a rather detailed and extensive look into how supermodel-dom came about. In my opinion, I think the time of the Big Six sisters was the bomb! They nailed it big time then. Look at Naomi and how she's still walking the runways! I do have to say her catwalk is awesome! As for the new generation of supermodels... I am pretty impressed with Coco Rocha, Agyness Deyn and Gemma Ward. Work it gals!

I SURVIVED!
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to party 72hrs straight! I couldn't take it, really. I was like brain dead! My body was like a zombie while my head was almost out of order. So, right after 2.5 days of partying, I declared defeat and gave up. And the rest of the week I was busy working and I guess my whole body was just so fucked up, I fell ill!!! Yes, I am down with a viral fever. SIGH! I guess this is my body's way of telling me it needs to FUCKING rest. I betcha my body must be giving me the finger right now. Must prolly be cursing and swearing at me for wearing it out to the max!

These pics were taken while waiting for some of our friends to get back from work and before the party started. The 3 of us were like drunk and wasted and were doing absolutely crazy things. Dressing up in wigs and costumes (which I haven't posted here as it would be soooooo unglamourous!) The pics you see here are the only ones that are suitable for public viewing. HAHAHA!Enjoy!
