Victoria “Posh” Beckham has been signed as the new face of Marc Jacobs. However, I wouldn’t call her the new face.
She willingly got into a Marc Jacobs bag for the new ad ‘08 campaign that has just been launched.

The new ad campaign, features Posh Spice’s legs in a pair of Marc Jacobs’ reverse heels in black and purple, was shot by Juergen Teller.

hahahahaa…

Tiest0 is Engaged! Posted by Carinka

World’s most famous DJ Tiesto is getting married.

tiesto and

Tiesto, who’s real name is Tijs Verwest, 38, and long time girlfriend, Stacey Blokzijl,18, (yes they are 20 year apart) met each other in the nightlife, made it official on October 10, 2007. However, it is still unknown and to where they ceremony will take place.

No surprises here as the DJ Magazine #1 DJ in the world walks it in this year’s Poll. In 2007 he played solo for 8 hours for ‘Tiesto in Concert’ in Arnheim, selling out the event a month in advance, something that no other DJ has come close to doing. Unquestionably the world’s biggest DJ.

I personally LOVE and ADMIRE Tiesto. His DJ’ing skills put me in a state of Ecstasy. His girlfriend might be young but she must be doing something right :) I can’t wait for him to come back to NYC.

You heard it right, Lindsay Lohan’s career may possible be over! According to a source, both the film and music industry are pondering whether or not to say good-bye to Hollywood’s party-child. Talks are being made to discuss the cokehead’s LiLo’s future. If the industry did in fact say bye bye to her, she would be loosing over 20 million dollars a year. You might think that money is not an issue for LiLo but in fact, sources say that she is currently staying at the Utah Rehab center for free!!
If I were a well to do executive, I would NOT think about hiring her for any upcoming films. Not just because her last two movies were a flop, but because she is just so0o overly irresponsible and I just do NOT believe that she will ever be on top again. Maybe if she layed off the drinking, pills and coke she would realize that being an addict will get you no where. Poor stupid LiLo. I don’t feel bad, you did it to yourself :x

Last night, I went to see the fifth of the seven Harry Potter movies. Another great movie sequal that i can’t wait for the rest. It was interesting to see the characters grow from 11 years old to 17/18 years old. It kind of reminded me of myself. Oh how time flies.

Emma Watson (Hermione), is said to have signed up to be in the last two movies (if she wasn’t in the last two, they might as well just stop it at five) and claims that she never has to work again, once the film franchise ends. She admitted to making over 10 million euros in her sequals and with a mom and dad as lawyers, she is pretty much set to retire after the series ends. She also says “people can’t understand why I don’t want to be a full-time actress but school life keeps me in touch with my friends. It keeps me in touch with reality.”

Finally, a well brought up young lady. Now let’s hope she doesn’t follow in Paris’ footsteps.

Wii Fit.. will it really work? Posted by Carinka

So I hear Nintendo is coming out with a new game for the Wii called Wii Fit. Since I am a owner of the Nintendo Wii, I wonder….is this going to work? Will people actually be able to go down in waist size due to this new game?

Suppossidly, the Wii Fit package comes with a Wii balance board, in which you stand on the board and it measures the person’s center of gravity, weight and body mass index (now if a regular scale can’t do this, how can Nintendo make this happen?). Anywho, the board acts as a control for about 40 different types of training activites and these trainings fall into four fitness categories: Aerobic Exercise: 10-minute exercises that are designed to get the heart pumping, Muscle Conditioning: Controlled motions using arms, legs and other body parts, Yoga Poses: Classic poses that focus on balance and stretching, and Balance Games: Fun activities, such as ski jumping and heading soccer balls, that challenge the player’s overall body balance.

Sounds like a workout!

This would be awesome if it in fact did work and would save many people to the gym. Highly unlikely though :(

No official release date has been set.

That’s right all you fans, Beatstock ‘07 is right around the corner! As you all know, whatever happens at Beatstock, stays at Beatstock! For all the Jersey people, it falls on August 18, 2007 at PNC Bank Arts Center in Homdel, New Jersey and for all the NY people it falls on August 19, 2007 at Jones Beach in Wantagh, Long Island.

Every year, my girls and I look forward for the hottest sexiest day of the year. A day that everyone fist pumps, techno, house, and trance music for 4 hours straight. This event is almost bigger than celebrating a birthday. All girls go shopping for Beatstock outfits and make sure their outfits are prefectley assembled for the big day. Having the perfect tan and your nails in a french manicure is also key ;)

Days before the concert is important to plan who is driving, who is drinking, who is putting in gas money, what drinks will be necessary, who is packing the survival kit, chairs, music, etc. The day of Beatstock, usually consists of waking up around 8am and starting to get ready (Looking plastic is just an idea what Beatstock is all about). To beat all the traffic on the one and only New Jersey Parkway, you would need to leave around noon. Last year, my friends and I had to make a stop in Lyndhurst so we were actually sitting in about 3 hours of traffic. We will managed to get to the concert about a hour or two before it started.

Once you arrive at PNC and move through all the car honking, techno/ trance blasting music, screaming drunk guidos/ guidettes, stretch limos, underage girls with neon mini skirts wearing mroe make-up then a MAC counter, you try and fit your car into the first lawn you see where people are drinking. Usually no one cares how far away you park as long as you park where people are already wasted and have the music you like blasting.

It is hard to talk about what goes and what people see during pregaming and the actual concert, one just needs to be a fan to understand what i mean by all this Beatstock 411.

THERE’S ONLY ONE BEATSTOCK! (See pics below taken from Beatstock 2006)

I LOVE MY GIRLS!

The Beckhams on TV Posted by Carinka

Surprise, Surprise! Not only will you be able to see a hour- long special about Victoria Beckham (her original series was canceled, since Victoria stated “my family will always come first before my career.”) BUT get this, the Beckham’s best friends, TomKat, managed to get both David & Victoria Beckham a role in the Showtime series, The Tudors. I enjoy watching The Tudors, the cast is not only extremely good looking but it’s better than watching the History Channel. It shows the way and the life of King Henry VIII.

I don’t know about you, but i can’t wait to see the HOT British couple in wardrobes from the 1500’s and the acting skills. No date has been yet given as to what Season they will appear on. Stay tuned!

Waiting in line for the iPhone Posted by Carinka

Last night was a hectic night. I woke up at 2am and couldn’t fall back asleep until 4am. I promised my boyfriend, Jon, that while he was at work, I would wait in line to get him his iPhone. My alarm clock was set for 7am. I hopped into the shower, got ready and by 8:15am I was on the road with my younger brother, Conrad, who said he would wait with me all day to get the iPhone. I got to the bank as soon as it opened, 8:30am. I withdrew the money needed and headed to the mall.

Upon arriving at the mall, I made sure to park the closest I could to the Apple store. My brother and I walked into the mall before 9am. Walking towards the Apple Store, we already started to see people lined up, so we started counting, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and we would be 12 and 13! Not even 5 minutes passed by and mall security directed all people to head over to the Mall Security Center. My brother and I started speed walking. We approached the place and had to sign our names and were then given a ticket. I got ticket #5 and Conrad got ticket #6. SWEETT!!!! They told us that we had to be in line by 4pm or we would lose our place on the line. We then headed home and were home by 10am. All this work and under 2 hours!

When I got home, I was in a good mood, so I decided to clean my room (and boy did I clean it…lol). Around 12:30pm, we headed back to the mall to avoid Mother Dearest asking us to do more chores.

Getting here, people were already lining up. I asked Mall security where should I go, the kind lady told me head to the front of the line, where the man security guard asked what number I was and I would be placed inline accordingly. Numbers 1-4 were not there, so I sat first on line from 12:45pm till 3pm. We took our seats right in front of the entrance. What is so awesome about waiting for the iPhone is that if one needs to leave for any reason AND you have a ticket, you may do so and you may walk around the mall. It is uncomfortable sitting on the floor and having every single person gawk at you and ask you what you are waiting for (I mean seriously, turn around and look up…APPLE…duh..and then you have the huge iPhone in the display window…stupid people), but that is a small price to pay for what I am waiting for and for who I am waiting for it. After sitting in front of the Apple Store, Mall Security started to tell people that we needed to move because it was a “safety hazard.” Now, there are about 4 representatives from Apple guiding us anxious iPhone fans to another part of the mall. So we moved, and still waited.

At 2pm Apple had all their employees in the store, clapping and shouting and the crowd was going insane. Within minutes, employees were tapping up black curtains so that people passing by would not see the wonderful preparation for the release of the iPhone. Time was definitely passing by very slowly. Mall Security allowed people WITH tickets to get off line and walk around the mall until 4p.m. At 3:50p.m, the Apple Store took down the black curtains and inside of the store was visible to everyone. They had replaced all their computer ads with iPhone ads and the first two tables had 5 iPhone’s each. One of the big iPhone displays had a countdown going, which showed the minutes and second till opening. It looked awesome! Every ticket holder hurried back to their place in line for the remaining two hours. The first hour flew by very quickly. The second hour however, people were starting to get restless. Nonetheless, everyone continued to patiently wait.

At 5:50pm, about 50 Apple Employees ran out shouting with their hands in the air and high-fiving every single person on line. Everyone’s blood was definitely pumping. Everyone waiting stood up, as it was less then 5 minutes to go. Time was ticking. Everyone stood anxiously as one Apple Employee yelled “30 seconds” and then again “20” seconds and finally “10” and then started counting down as if the ball was going to drop on New Year’s Eve. 6pm, everyone was screaming and yelling and at that very second, Apple was allowing people into the store 8 people at time. Conrad and I were in the first people to go in. All employees greeted us with a warm welcome and open arms. The Store Manager of Apple directed me to the cash register closest to the door. The Apple employee behind the counter asked me 4GB or 8GB, I replied 8GB. She then scanned the iPhone and the total came to $640.93. I took out my cash, double counted, and handed her the money. She placed the iPhone in a very neat and elite black bag that had the iPhone printed on it. The bag was almost as good as the phone (just kidding). I took the bag from her and headed towards the door. On my way out the Apple employees were shouting and clapping, as I was the first person to walk out of the store with the revolutionary iPhone.

Mission accomplished.

Adrenaline Booster Posted by Carinka

Energy drinks have become an instant fab. I have only tried Red Bull, which is suppose to give you wings, but in my opinion tastes absolutly aweful.  Red Bull, vodka and tonic, is that even suppose to taste good? or is it just the sugar high that makes you drunker? 

The last time I was out, I saw some girl sipping on this energy drink called “TAB.”  The only reason it caught my eye was because the can was pink (go figure). The girl drinking this Tab, was nearly 100 lbs and about 5′6, she didn’t appear to be drinking any alcohol, which made me wonder, why is she drinking Tab (is she on something else), would this Tab drink make you feel better then if you were drunk?  What is this new hot pink can that is so sheek to be caught drinking…well..its pink and supposedly tastes like a liquid jolly rancher. (((MMmMMmmMMmmMmm)))

 Nonetheless, these energy drinks, seem to have some sort of effect on you. Once you start drinking these things, it’s like you don’t need food.  The cafeeine has you going for hours on end and when you start to crash, you will sleep on cloud 9. (Doesn’t sound that bad)

I need to get my hands on one of these hot pink cans and “Fuel to be Fabulous.”

Lilo Caught Once Again Posted by Carinka

She’s at it again. Lindsay Lohan (Lilo) has been charged with a DUI after a long night of partying at Hollywood’s hotspot Teddy’s. She and her friend were passed out in the car. Now, all you Lilo fans out there, you are probably wondering what is wrong with this party child. Well for starters, it can be that Lilo entered the party scene in 2005 when she started partying with Paris Hilton and Kate Moss and few months later lost a dramatic amount of weight. Tabloids claimed the Lilo had a eating disorder but in reality she had has a coke addiction. Ms. Lohan has become a fiend, from snorting lines in nightclub bathrooms to throwing coke parties after club hours. With the media today, being disgustingly thin is the new thing and what better way to loose it then by snorting some coke. YEAH RIGHT! Now let’s not forget that Lilo is not the only young celebrity abusing drugs, but it just seems that she the only one who can’t get enough of it.

Rehab, a place that tries to make people realize why they are doing drugs and makes them stop, was NOT that place that Lilo thought she would ever go to. Now she has successfully completed rehab and as of Memorial Day 2007, she has admitted herself into another intensive medical rehabilitation.

I mean what is the point? She will act sober and be very sorry for what she has done and most likely just do it again. It’s called relapse and she by far will not stop snorting because she has billions, wants to stay on top of the tabloids and gossip columns and definitely does not want to gain a pound.

She should just join Paris in jail. Sad but true.
