Last night was the American Music Awards. It featured a slew of presenters, performers, and everyone else's. Needless to say, most of everyone's attention was focused on Kanye West. With 808’s and Heartbreak scheduled to drop ASAP, Kanye West offered a glimpse into not only his album with a performance of “Heartless,” but to his long awaited clothing endeavor. Pastelle, the line Kanye has been working adamantly on, is still G14 Classified, but the varsity jacket worn by Kanye last night is definitely a sign of things to come. Look for the official website to launch soon, PastTellMuseum.com.

Visionaire is a "multi-format album of fashion and art" published 3 times a year in limited numbers. Each issue has a different theme and format, and the lastest issue, n.º 55, made in collaboration with House of Krug (the creators of Cuvèe champagne) is entitled "Surprise", because this issue is devoted to pop-ups. Visionaire produced this issue with intricate pop-ups by a selection of contemporary artists and designers like Sophie Calle, Andreas Gursky, Cai Guo-Qiang, Steven Klein, Yayoi Kusama, Alasdair McLellan, Steven Meisel, Guido Mocafico, Nicola Formichetti/Gareth Pugh, Sølve Sundsbø, and Mario Testino.
The pop-ups come encased in a dark purple cloth-covered case with a magnetized closure and engraved metal plaque. Visionaire N° 55 is printed in a limited edition of 4000 copies with a price of 250$ each.
"It ain't a game, it's plain to see -- you're listenin' to the sounds of Breed and the D.F.C." " MC Breed died today after suffering kidney problems after collapsing last year. Breed was well-known for his singles such as “Aint No Future In Ya Frontin” and “Gotta Get Mine” featuring 2Pac.
Breed’s exact cause of death has not been confirmed but a close friend of MC Breed’s confirmed the death saying, “He’s no longer with us. We are in the process of putting together a benefit concert, hopefully at Saint Andrews to raise money for a funeral”. "
Tragedy has struck again in the United States. 19 year old Abraham Briggs, a college student at Pembroke Pines, Fla., took a fatal overdose of pills Wednesday and broadcast his suicide live over the internet.
The family of Briggs say they're horrified his life ended before a virtual audience, and infuriated that viewers of the live webcam and operators of the Web site that hosted it didn't act sooner to save him.
Only after police arrived to find Abraham Biggs dead in his bed did the Web feed stop Wednesday — 12 hours after the 19-year-old Broward College student first declared on a Web site that he hated himself and planned to die.
Ok I know laughing at people when they get hurt isn't morally right. It's just down right mean to be frank. But I can't help myself. One of my many guilty pleasures is to treasure hunt through youtube and find people getting served the raw deal. Now this video is extra funny because it's dubbed over with old school Street Fighter sound effects. Just watch the video and you'll understand why I've been bent over laughing and crying for the past 10 min. Don't judge me ok. This iish is truly hilarious!!!
"While the Israeli-Palestinian conflict naturally garners most of the world's attention here, it's sometimes easy to forget that Jerusalem is considered hallowed ground (and therefore worth fighting over) by a host of overlapping Christian orders -- all constantly struggling for turf rights.
On Sunday morning, Israeli police rushed into the Church of the Holy Sepulcher, one of the holiest sites in Christianity, to break up a violent confrontation between Greek and Armenian Orthodox monks just a few feet from the site where Jesus is believed to have been crucified."
"Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively.
There's no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves."
