Joaquin Phoenix: Just Cause

I don't smoke...just really like and appreciate joaquin phoenix. I could look at him all day. He's attractive in a dark mysterious kind of way. Lovely man...but I wish he would do more movies, I think he's a very talented actor. I don't even love all the movies he's in but I appreciate his qualities as an actor.

Beckams: Together Again

David Beckham is back in the states after the LA Galaxy Asian Tour. I have to say that I think I will at least attempt to watch an upcoming soccer game. Watching Beckham highlights is fun...so a full game should be exciting as well, right? This is not a recent picture but I like it because I'm loving the casual laid back look of D & V. Cute family.

Jean-Leon Gerome: Pygmalion & Galatea

I first saw this painting while in NYC at the Metropolitian Museum of Art. The painting depicts the greek myth of Pygmalion, King of Cyprus after he has scultped his ideal woman. He named his sculpture Galatea and it was so beautiful that he fell in love with his own creation. Aphrodite, Goddess of love brought the statue to life. Everytime I look at this piece I can't help but smile.

John Mayer: Cartoon

Okay I used to like John Mayer. I liked him best when he was a fresh faced newby in the music industry and won his first Grammy. I really liked his song writing and his message. Is it just me but his newer material I just can't relate to? Not to mention I know more about John Mayer the person vs. the artist. I'm starting to realize maybe I don't like John Mayer the person. It just makes me shake my head when a person claims to want privacy then decides to put some stuff on their blog that will peak the media's attention. It's like he's asking for it. Oh well I can't feel too bad for him anymore.

Rihanna

The make-up is great in this picture. Also I think this hair color suits her. This must have been after she was a dark blonde but before the cut and going black. I like the black bob too especially when she had some curls in it. Very natural look here though.


I just liked the photography here. I love black & whites and here she looks so much older...I almost didn't recognize her.

Gwen Stefani

Gwen Stefani usually see her is some preety outrageious stuff but I really like her make-up here. Much softer look...I think because there is no red lip which is her usual look. I love the pink simple lipstick and the great bouncy curls.


Movie Review: Jumpers

Okay so I saw it. Afterwards I felt like it was missing something....like a plot. Hayden comes off to me as being so stiff and wooden I don't believe him in any of his roles (I'm not just saying that I've seen him in the Star Wars trilogy and Awake). The time line of events was kind of ridiculous. I really miss well made quality movies with smart plots. Next time I see one that has those qualities I will let you know.

Not to be totally negative I'll suggest a movie in this genre that was pretty good. X-Men. Mainly because we met Hugh Jackman for the first time. The first one was the best (IMHO)...good plot (as far as comic book characters go). I hear that there will be another one coming out that will focus on Wolverine. Can't wait!

Cocktail Lounge Area

I like the lounge nightclub vibe. Now how do I re-create on a budget?


Victoria Beckham: Vogue UK Cover March 2008

She needs a US image consultant for real. Because the perception of her is so harsh and negative but this beautiful cover really let's people see another side of her. Americans want to like her and I think we would with more covers like this. She is so used to being attacked by the British press it's no wonder she may not even want to try to let us know her. BTW she was so nice and friendly on Project Runway...she needs to more things like that in the future.

Wedding Table Arrangement: Pears

What girl doesn't think about her wedding? I love this table setting. Simple but beautiful...I love the pears, the color and the overall design. I'm taking notes for my big day.

This is one of my most favorite pictures of Victoria Beckham. She really looks nature and super cute and stylish. Very beautiful picture. I really like her and appreciate her honesty and just like who she is. She has soooo many haters though. People complain that she can't sing and say nasty things because she got out of the music industry and started her own clothing line, fragrance and sunglasses collection. I don't understand the haters though? She has said numerous times that she was never the best singer or dancer. I'm not sure what people expected her to do after the Spice Girls broke up but I would have done the same thing and tried to have my own solo career. She eventually moved on into fashion which is great. I think people expect her to sit at home and just be thankful to be married to David Beckham. To me that is the most sexist logic I have ever heard. From what I've seen she is a loving mother and wife. In the crazy world of celebrity she has 3 kids and has stayed married! Why hate...why not appreciate?

Halle Berry & Gabriel Aubrey: Versace

I came across these photos Halle Berry did for Versace. She is beautiful. I love the photography...also how cute is it to know she met the father of her child on this day and she has pictures to show thier child!


Joaquin Phoenix & Royston Langdon

Just hanging out with his ex-girlfriend's (Liv Tyler) husband, Royston Langdon. See people, they can all just get along. Joaquin directed some of Royston's band (Spacehog) videos.





Joaquin Phoenix: Two Lovers

The lovely Joaquin Phoenix (where has he been lately) will be starring in an upcoming movie called Two Lovers with Gwyeneth Paltrow. Can't wait!
