ish...


- Hello Kitty is dropping a new set of vibrators...(A lot of you guys are probably shocked that I'm not shocked about a HK vibrator...Just wait and you'll understand why)...What really caught my eye in this article is that they're talking about the mythical, hard-to-find Hello Kitty vibrator that came out 5 years ago...I didn't realize it was so rare...Apparently it's only available on the black market and really hard to find...They obviously didn't check my underwear drawer...

- Why are they acting like this is a big deal? I've seen normal people with normal incomes throw more money than this around at the club...This dude is a multimillionaire and they're trippin' 'cuz he gave away $500? Sheesh...

- So
Kimora is going to be on 'The Apprentice'... I hope she kicks Omarosa's ass...

- THIS is why I LOVE Samuel Jackson...This and the fact that on the low he's always dressed real ill... He's usually rocks that Rosasen and tries to show the young'ns how to stay fly when they get older...On another note read the trivia on his IMDB page...Did anyone know he took hostages while protesting the lack of black trustees on the board or lack of a black studies program while he was in college? I dunno which fact is more insane...The fact that he took hostages or the fact that the school was MOREHOUSE! Oh yeah...Hey Sam...Power to The People...

- Lawd Chance got that reality show he was auditioning so hard for on 'I Love New York'...Guess actin' a fool does pay off sometimes...And can I ask how you take a clown and embrace it? I know this fool knows Saaphyri called him seashells 'cuz he looked a hot mess...(FYI - I was so happy she won...I happen to be from 54th and Crenshaw too...ROLLIN'!)

- You know...peeps (me included) give Superhead (or is it Supa?) a hard time but I read
this article over at Essence and all I have to say is I feel the girl...The quote about Lil Wayne really hit home and made me realize that she and I aren't as different as I'd like to think...I have the same kind of relationship with a certain skateboarder and you know what? I wouldn't change it for the world...

MOCA X Murakami Collabo

I was soooo excited when I ran across this article in the LA Times...MOCA will be having an exhibit with Takashi Murakami this fall...The exhibit starts in October and will run until February...What's unusual about this exhibit is that there will be a Louis Vuitton pop up store in the middle of the museum...According to the Times, the items being sold at the pop up store will be marked around $300 higher than at the LV store...There will be at least one new item available at MOCA that will not be available anywhere else...A lot of people think this is some sort of conflict in interest but very honestly...I dunno... I think the melding of art and fashion is always good ish...Hey maybe they can get Kanye to perform at the opening reception...Now THAT would be hot...



In other MOCA news...In October they also have an exhibit opening titled "Black Panther: The Revolutionary Art of Emory Douglas" ...It is a collection of work Emory Douglas created while he was Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party...The exhibit includes over 150 works and I can't wait to see it...If you really know me you'll know I'm a revolutionary at heart...Every now and then you'll even see me throw my fist in the air...The fact that MOCA recognizes the brillance of his graphic design enough to present it to the next generation is why they're my favorite museum (sorry LACMA)...Check it out...Feed your inner-renaissance man...and oh yeah...Power to The People...
