"Not so glam, a little more real."

Scary is doing a new photo shoot today.

"I’m excited to get pictures with a new perspective. Not so glam. A little more real. Well, as real as you can get during a photo shoot. Purposely, I haven’t pulled any clothes. I’m doing my own hair and makeup. It should be pretty authentic. "

Then this:



Doesn't that look "not so glam"? Real? Authentic?

I know I personally always hang out in homes that don't belong to me wearing borrowed clothes and give myself kissyfaces into the mirror as I apply my makeup.

Doesn't everyone?

Real and authentic would be to wear your OWN clothes, take the photos in your OWN home...

Oh. That's right. She doesn't have a home yet (still), most of her clothes are apparently still in storage, and she probably DOES kissyfaces to her reflection when applying makeup.

Real and authentic would be Mary inside her storage space digging through boxes searching for something to wear (and her dignity).

Trouble In Paradise?

No I don't know exactly what she's referring to, but Julia's latest Twitter's lead me to believe:

• That someone she was "in this together" with, isn't so in it anymore.
• That whoever she's speaking of is female, since her mom is saying guys "do this too".

Fights? Lawsuits? Breakups?
Hmmm...

And it'd be just like Julia to play the victim, would it not?

He Fits Right In

And another one's gone... another one bites the dust...

*giggles*

This applies today

Puff the ugly booze face
My en-em-yyyyy
Frolicks in my new crows’ feet
Making me look fifty-three

When my skin’s like paper
I’ll blame that rascal puff
And go all Mary Rambin-like
And use that botox stuff

Blah-ging

meghanasha:

New iMacs galore, too! Same awesome stuff, but just more of it. More evolution than revolution, but that’s ok!

This is the in depth coverage of the NonSense tech blogger. Thank you SO much, Meghan! You've definitely been not just informative but entertaining with your educated, detailed comparison.

"New mac, same stuff just more of the stuff."

Right.

There's (Still) Something About Mary

I’m not claiming to be up to speed on the recession or drastic decline in the market, but I feel like our President should be. The other night he and Michelle were head bopping to a private Stevie Wonder concert at the White House. Now 3 hour basketball games.

You guys get on my ass for taking vacations, but I assure you I’m working most of the time (otherwise they would be less frequent). Working from anywhere in the world is one of the perks of having your own business. Great perk, but there is a lot of risk that comes with it.

And the future of a nation isn’t resting on my blog.

Looks like Obama has a good start on competing with Bush’s vacation day record.

This is what Scary posted as a caption to a picture of Obama on PRESIDENT'S DAY enjoying a beer and a basketball game. Spending time with the people who have put their faith and their country in his hands. You know, on the day meant to HONOR presidents, when even banks are closed. In his short time in office Obama has already presented a blueprint for the budget. Raising taxes on the rich, cutting taxes for working America, lower cost healthcare, renewable energy, education reform: everything Republican’s love to hate. And everything Obama promised in his campaign. Among other things. A little more involved than blogging your nasty feet from Aspen and calling it work.

Stupid bitch.

Oy

Julia celebrated her 28th birthday with a "bicoastal birthday party", which she shared with Randi Zuckerberg. A few things to note. Tacky tacky matchy matchy sequined dresses (which I'm sure Julia didn't pay for) and plastic pumps. Headbands and earrings from Claire's or some such teeny bopper mall store. Pink and blue was the color scheme... but Meghan didn't wear pink or blue. Something else I find interesting is... with 4 photogs at each party... why was there not one picture of all three girls, "sisters", best friends... And the birthday cake had only Randy's name, though it was a "joint" party. The rumor mill has been spinning that there's a rift between the girls and I'm actually starting to believe it. Meghan looks miserable in almost every picture she's in and Mary seems to be laughing AT Julia and not with her.


Rachel Sklar: Um, get the fuck OFF me, you crazy bitch!


ME! Mememememememememememeeeeeee!


Julia finally gets some. Cupcakes.


JA does her best villian pose. Could she be any more vain? Is it even possible?

She looks like a wax figure.

We'll get to the Birthday-Bash-Your-Head-In momentarily, but first:

The only thing I feel like covering from my time away...

This exchange made me giggle for days:





read his reply

I know it's been a few days since I've posted...

...but I just haven't had the time this week!

Can't forget Julia's birthday, though...
The perfect cupcake.



"xo"

maryrambin:

In between shows fashionistas (like myself and Editor in Chief of Allure Linda Wells) stopped off at Robert Verdi’s Luxe Lab (aka über chic sponsored event space).:: Linda is a religious Soul Cycler so we go way back. Robert and I “meet” every time we see each other but he’s actually pretty cool about it. I’m horrible with names and faces so I never give people a hard time about that. Alright, intro over, let me show you around.

P.S. His camo jacket is Louis Vitton. You know I hate clothing covered in logos, but this jacket is pretty awesome.

First of all what is this ( .:: ) you have been doing lately, Mary? I'm curious. I'm also not sure why you would put yourself on blast for being such a royal snob that you don't remember this person every time you meet them. And lastly, he is wearing a pattern and you are wearing a pattern. If there are LV logo's we can't see them. At least, I can't.

Convenient...

maryrambin:

As I left they handed me this enormous LL Bean schwag bag. Nice!! The first real schwag of fashion week. Tough economy means there aren’t as many hair products to go around.

Note the strategically situated Blueprint Cleanse that they continue to promote even though it has been widely reported as a scam.

Keep talking about how times are tough, Mare. Out of all the girls you are the only one who even can considering you're homeless and all. How long is it responsible to couch surf, though? It's been a while now and even the most welcome house guest becomes a pain in the ass after enough time passes.

Julia does TOO have depth... I mean... look at the WORK OF ART she admires at the MOMA with Mama...

Full on Monet.


This one, she literally captioned "Art."

Why is any of this important?

Let's examine for a hot second some of the topics we explore amidst the immature teasing:

• Disclosure in advertising/accountability
• Backdating posts
• Claiming coverage of events that never come, statements from programmers that never come
• Scamming Google for page views and lying about it. Repeatedly.
• Censorship and the relationship between NS and Tumblr
• Charlsie's internship Tumblr which is still not restored though Baugher and the rest have been
• Using images without permission or credit

To start.

I would be just as vocal with any company, group, individual... who puts themselves in a position of giving advice or being a role model and then shows these kinds of values.

True colors.

So the next time I hear from JA it's this...

Trainwrecks reposted an entry, you can view it on TW's page here: http://trainwrecks.tumblr.com/post/78145368/juliaallison-front-row-at-bcbg-spot-the

I replied to TW's repost here:

I then get this email:


But she seemed so SUPPORTIVE in her IMs with me?? And remember, as long as it isn't PHYSICALLY hurting someone she doesn't care! That's why of course I got this email from her. In case it's hard to see:

Katrina Kay is her real name. We know each other personally, as in, I have her number saved in my phone, which she typed in, with the name "Katrina Kay."

Stop being so goddamn rude, though.

It's really obnoxious.

Wait, I'm the one being obnoxious? Rude? LMAO, well maybe but... again. Pot. Kettle. etc. Fuck, at least I admit it when I'm being a bitch. My reply:

I wonder if you also emailed "trainwrecks" since that is the individual who initially commented on the name issue?

Since she doesn't professionally go by that name and has not acted under that name whatsoever (though IMDB does list Katie Bowden as an AKA... no Katrina Kay) are you that surprised that it might be pointed out by us lesser people who don't have her number in our phones?

What is obnoxious is that you have twice called me obnoxious. Though I have given you constructive criticism I haven't thrown those kinds of words your way. Mary's, but not yours. It's almost like you want me to hate you or something.

I would think that with your resume you would understand just how personal this reblogging shit ISN'T. It is... but it isn't. And when one goes away, somewhere else another comes along to take their place. It's all part of it.

So stop being so goddamn rude.

PS: Thanks though, for the motivation. After pulling an all nighter working on Life On Blast I was about to nap for a few hours and this email from you has inspired a fresh pot of coffee.

The REAL Question of the Day

What came first? The chicken or the egg?

I still don't like the horizontal scroll. Sorry.

3 responses in the QOD? That's ALL?
But what happened to all the commenters? CENSORED

Julia is HAPPY! Promise.

The "lip dub" going on in Julia's head, convincing herself more than us:

I feel pretty,
Oh so pretty,
I feel pretty and witty and bright,
And I pity Any girl who isn't me tonight.
I feel charming,
Oh so charming,
It's alarming how charming I feel,
And so pretty That I hardly can believe I'm real.

See the pretty girl in that mirror there:
Who can that attractive girl be?
Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress,
Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me!

I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy!

Have you met my good friend Maria,
The craziest girl on the block?
You'll know her the minute you see her,
She's the one who is in an advanced state of shock.
She thinks she's in love. She thinks she's in Spain.
She isn't in love, She's merely insane.
It must be the heat Or some rare disease,
Or too much to eat Or maybe it's fleas.

Keep away from her, Send for Chino!
This is not the Maria we know!
Modest and pure, Polite and refined,
Wellbread and mature, And out of her mind!

Miss America! Speech! Speech!

I feel pretty, Oh so pretty
That the city should give me its key.
A committee
Should be organized to honor me.

I feel dizzy, I feel sunny,
I feel fizzy and funny and fine,
And so pretty, Miss America can just resign!
Girls:
See the pretty girl in that mirror there: What mirror where?
Who can that attractive girl be? Which? What? Where?
Whom?
Such a pretty face, Such a pretty dress, Whommm? Whommm?
Such a pretty smile, Such a pretty me! Whommm?

I feel stunning
And entrancing,
Feel like running and dancing for joy,
For I'm loved By a pretty wonderful boy!
