~FINALLY!!! A James Johnson/Glamour Whore Collaboration~

"I think it is in collaboration that the nature of art is revealed." ~Steve Lacy

For awhile now I have been watching the career of photographer James Johnson skyrocket. JJ (only I can call him that...it's Mr.Johnson to you) is not just a photographer I admire, he also happens to be a friend. You may remember reading about JJ here before, I have written about my boy wonder a few times. I met him at the beginning of his career and was immediately impressed with his passion and enthusiasm for his craft. He was young and new to the industry, so I tried to guide him when I could but he really didn't need much help at all, I was just more or less being over-protective of my young rookie friend. But he has definitely come along way in a short time. Hell, he even has his own website now:
"James Johnson Photography"

Yes, my baby is all grown up...




We have been discussing shooting together FOREVER, but our schedules always conflicted or someone cancelled..etc, etc, etc. However...last Saturday: The day finally came!! Finally!!
It was so great to shoot together as a team, like "Shaq and Kobe" as JJ said...and apparently I'm "Shaq"...lol. It was amazing to watch him work and see how happy and at ease he is doing what he loves and doing it well...



The look on his face when he saw my kit was priceless...



And that is only a quarter of my actual kit...


The shoot was a preliminary ad campaign for a new perfume developed and created by
Ryan "Scoop" Davis (also the male counterpart in the pix) called "Silent Seductress". The photographs are to be used to help the scent make its way into stores. And JJ nailed it...



The model Kari Cabrera also had James snap some l pix for her port after the perfume shoot. She looked fab and the camera loved her. She was also a total doll to work with!!

Basically it was an amazing day with an amazing team. I loved working with JJ, Ryan created a gorgeous scent and the beautiful Kari was a joy to work with and her face was a great canvas.

I told you all a long time ago: Comic Divas are the bizness!!!! And apparently
Tush Magazine agrees with me because their "Just For One Day" spread features female superheros/villains wearing some seriously fierce couture!! And although I love love love the Wonder Woman shot, Poison Ivy will ALWAYS be my favorite...

~Say What?...MAC Typographic Body Art~

Follow my blog with bloglovin´

"Let me ask you something, what is not art?" ~Author Unknown



As I have made perfectly clear, I am off MAC. Don't get me wrong, more than a few of their products will always be in my kit and on my face, but almost all of em all are from their permanent line or from collections long past. Their newer collections have bored me to tears and failed to meet ol' skool MAC standards.

However, that being said, I have to give credit where credit is due...

Recently in Toronto at a MAC Acrylic Paint promotion, 22 MAC artists put their body painting skills to the test...and kicked ass. The majority of these looks were achieved with MAC Acrylic Paint which will launch in August. Onlookers watched as the artists painted type design on nude models...and I'm sure they were watching in amazement as the result was fierce. Have a look...

~Rhianna "Te Amo" Video: Riri Definitely Gave Y'all Something To Talk About~ ~

Follow my blog with bloglovin´

Te amo, te amo
She says to me, I hear the pain in her voice
Then we danced underneath the candelabra she takes the lead
Thats when i saw it in her eyes its over

Chorus
Then she says te amo then she put her hand around me waist
I told her no,
She cries Te amo i told her im not gonna run away but let me go
My soul is crying, without asking why
I said te amo, wouldnt somebody tell me what she said
Dont it mean I love you
Think it means I love you
Dont it mean I love you

Te amo, te amo, shes scared to breathe
I hold her hand, i got no choice uhh
Pull me out on the beach, danced in the water, i start to leave
Shes begging me and asking why its over

Chorus
Then she says te amo then she put her hand around me waist
I told her no,
She cries Te amo i told her im not gonna run away, but let me go
My soul is crying, without asking why
I said te amo, wouldnt somebody tell me what she said
Dont it mean I love you
Think it means I love you
Dont it mean I love you
Think it means I love you

Then she says te amo then she put her hand around me waist
I told her no,
She cries Te amo i told her im not gonna run away but let me go
My soul is crying, without asking why
I said te amo, wouldnt somebody tell me what she said
Dont it mean I love you
Think it means I love you
Dont it mean I love you
Dont it mean I love you
Think it means i love you
-"Te Amo" Rihanna

Oh Lawd!! I just know this is going to have people buzzin... I know most people's uptight reactions are going to annoy me, so for those people I have a "Oh shut up!! Yeah, I said shut up!!" in advance. The video has a lesbian theme. Gasp! Shocking right?! Wrong. Open up your mind, shut your mouth and get over it. It's sexy and Riri looks fly. That's all.

~Factory Installed Wi-Fi In The Whip?! Put On Your Seatbelt...And A Helmet~

Follow my blog with bloglovin´

"Wealth, like happiness, is never attained when sought after directly. It comes as a by-product of providing a useful service." -Henry Ford

I spend an INSANE amount of time in my car...and I LOVE it. Yup, I love driving...and I love sexy cars. For awhile now I've been coveting a white Audi. Nothing too special I know, I just liked them...

BUT who wants this?




When you could have this?



Sexy right? A ride fit for a Glamour Whore wouldn't you say? Yeah, I agree. However, don't get it twisted... This car is more than just a pretty face...it comes with FACTORY INSTALLED Wi-Fi!!! Oh. My. God. Everyone strap on your safety belts and put on a helmet you may need it as I'm blogging while driving across the George Washington Bridge...lol. Seriously.

Now I don't quite understand all of the computer jargon explaining it all but truth be told, I don't really care how they did it or why it works as long as it does. Basically, from what I could understand, the 2011 Audi A8 will be able to provide wireless internet service via a integrated WLAN module. Passengers will simply need to insert a SIM card to access service and Bluetooth will provide up to 8 simultaneous connections. Omg... That's just sexy. I'm not even going to lie to you, I'm literally turned on a lil bit by this sexy technology advanced piece of machinery...





For those of you that just have to know how it works can look behind the curtain HERE
