Maybe cool people do still go to Lit!

from Gawker Stalker:

"Fri Oct 27th night/morning, at lit, around 1 am, Gael Garcia Bernal walks in w low key spanish speaking entourage, i try to pick him up bc i thought he was a 'regular' cute boy....we both stayed there until around 4am, then both groups of our friends end up at Veselka on 9th and 2nd for laaaaaate late night pirogies. His hair is longer than usual, white tshirt and jeans, oddly enough not as short as i thought he would be. He's a good looking dude but blends in very well."

Blogger Miss Modernage's report on Iceland...I saw here there!

I promise to post about my trip over the weekend.

Rolling Stone writer in Iceland at the Airwaves Festival

I will post my photos and stories about the trip later this week!

I am back from a fabulous trip to Iceland!!!

More to follow on that...but I had to quickly mention that my HIGHLIGHT of the trip was going to the famous BLUE LAGOON...which two of my fave bands went to in 2005 - FOO FIGHTERS and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE!!

This is from the Blue Lagoon website:

July 2005
Rock bands visit BLUE LAGOON - Geothermal Spa

Foo Fighters visited BLUE LAGOON – Geothermal Spa along with Queens of the Stone Age on July 4. The bands will give a concert in Reykjavík on July 5. This is the second time Foo Fighters visit Iceland but they have stated that they like everything Iceland has to offer, especially BLUE LAGOON – Geothermal Spa. The band brought their families as well and used the day off to visit the geothermal spa and other interesting places.

Diddy kind of makes me sick...

This is hilarious! Go Lisa Nova. She does a great pardoy of Diddy from his YouTube/Burger King page. Check it out.

First the original clip by Diddy



And the parody by Lisa Nova



Diddy is too much.

This is brilliant!

I love that Gaultier used a size 20 model on the runway!

You never know who or what you'll see in NYC

Yesterday morning when I was walking to work, I spotted a movie being filmed by Tower Records on East 4th Street and Broadway. It's a new Will Smith movie apparently. So far I didn't get to see Mr. Getting-Jiggy-With-It...but I am hoping! It was set up again today so I will run out on my lunch hour for a peek.

Then last night I went to the LIFEbeat volunteer Appreciation Party at The Cutting Room (owned by Mr. Big himself Chris Noth - didn't see him either - darn it!) but he does have a huge photo of himself on the wall along with a bunch of rock legends. Too funny! I did run into him once on University Place. He held a door open for me. Very sweet.




By the way, at the LIFEbeat party, I was awarded for being an outstanding volunteer. And I also won a raffle prize of two tickets to a fashion show during Fashion Week in Feb. I hope it will be for a designer that I like.



Then it was off to grab a bite at Cafeteria. I ended up sitting next to Eva Pigford. A gal who won America's Next Top Model a couple of years ago. I don't watch that reality show but I did recognize her. She's gorgeous.



And finally I ended up at a CD release party for the new Killers album at Manor. Thanks to my buddy Tom from L magazine for getting me in past the line-up of about 200 people at the door! It was fun and I spotted Jeffrey Sebelia from this current season of Project Runway. I just recently started watching that show a couple of episodes ago. It's actually a decent reality show. (Although I don't believe any of reality shows are real. They're all scripted.) Anyway, Jeffrey was rocking out to the new Killers album that was blasting at Manor. Not sure if any other C-listers showed up as I left just after midnight.

Wicked new video from Gnarls Barkley - check it out!

My good pal Julianna has a brand new salon in Calgary - check it out!

It's called Camp Beauty Salon and it looks amazing.

Photos of the salon are here.

Jules used to do my hair and is one excellent stylist! I recommend her highly.
In fact, I miss both her and her amazing services so much!!

If you are ever in Calgary, then you must look her up.

Go to Camp Beauty Salon for more info.
