Lex Land sings the hot, hot, sexiness right out of this song. This 22 year old California native made a big impression on the folks that matter at SXSW this year and she's going to be on career-maker KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic on April 7th. I'm loving her bluesy, rolling voice and the jaded lyrics of this song. I'm also loving the new trend in beauti-full, seriously talented, female singers.
You like her as much as I do? Maybe you will also love her cutesy, crafty creations. Check out the chanteuse's necklaces and keychains available through her Etsy shop. Multi-talented. She's gonna be all blazing and on fire soon enough. Til then she's keeping her day job at Kit Kraft hobby shop in Cali and Twittering all about it. Follow her life of almost thereness but still brokeness one Tweet at a time. Fascinating.
1) You know how people are always trying to get their clothing onto celebrities? You know, companies send swag and then unabashedly post pics of celebs in their gear? Do you think anyone claims responsibility for Bai Ling's wears? I mean is this a feather in the cap of that giant bow dressmaker?
I kind of picture them shielding their faces and hiding from paprazzi. Although, they did make that dress to begin with. That is one crazy present I don't want to unwrap. For hours and hours and hours of entertainment check out Bai's blog. Yep.
2) I love how Paula Abdul just shows up at events and stands there like she's normal.
3) The ghost of Gwen Stefani's future:
I kid because I love. Cyndi Lauper is my Fairy Godmother.
Should have been $15. And I had no idea eBay had an exotic-dancer-does-black-tie boutique. I have a wedding at the Bunny Ranch coming up soon. Good to know.
7) I want to curse JLo for ever wearing that Versace Grammys non-dress and making deep cleavage and crotch-cutting slits red carpet requirements for this event. JLo, curse you!
Wait, is that JLo? No, no. Tantastic Lisa Rinna at it again.
8) They look like tools. I love them, but they look like tools.
I've been listening to Adele for a little while now. At one point her song "Chasing Pavements" was so firmly on loop on my iPod that I convinced myself I could accurately hit all of the British soul singer's smooth notes. My friends (and even a few passing strangers) quickly corrected me. So, needless to say I loved Adele's honey voice from first listen, but by some weird chain of events I never set eyes on a single solitary image of the songstress. Yesterday I came across this profile of the singer from CBS News Sunday Morning:
How amazing that she is so young, so gorgeous, so curvy, and so confident. Girls don't get too many positive, voluptuous role models in the spotlight. It is no news that there's a real lack of real women's bodies in the media, and it is always a welcome change to see someone exist a little outside of the Hollywood beautification/standardization machine (she's not too far outside, the girl is friggin' gorgeous). But still, score one for the curvy girls!
