Fashion Totally ROCKS!

Tearing myself away from that Maxwell clip. Again. Thing is, that really is my most favouritest song in the world. No joke. It has been for YEARS.

I digress.

NY NY Big city of dreams. It must have been a MAD one this weekend.

The annual Conde Nast sponsored star studded Fashion Rocks event kicked off NY Fashion week.

And looking at these pictures I can't wait to watch it. I think its being aired on Tuesday. Once I'm done here, I'm going to start looking for clips on Youtube!

RED CARPET

Queen B, back front and centre with a bizang....boy does this chica know how to make headlines. More on that later. She looks f.a.b.o.u.l.o.u.s.



Ciara is another hot tamale. Very glam dress. Don't like it much though.



Lydia Hearst plays, count my ribs in this red cutaway number.



My, my, moving up in the world Gossip Girl. Chace Crawford cuts a dashing picture with the original Italian Stallion Valentino.



Putting the trouser in trousersnake, JT looks as adorable as ever. BUT I have to share, since a friend said he looked like a Ukrainian truck driver to her, I haven't quite looked at him the same way.


Princess Riri looking fierce in this sculptural black dress. Love it.



Ms Swank looking very swanky in her magenta gown and new crop.



Natasha Bedingfield, laughing all the way to the bank...Unwritten is the theme song for The Hills AND Pantene in America. Let the royalties roll.



Nice to see Brandy making a comeback. Not so nice to see up your nose love.



Bada BLING. Charlize, grabs the statement necklace trend with two hands. Love it.


Anna Wintour's daughter is a total FOX! Who knew. And with that model pose, I'm guessing she's a model?


Paula-straight-up-now-tell-me-do-you-really-want-to-love-me-forever-or-am-i-caught-in-a-hit-and-run Abdul.

I will love her forever for giving my childhood that song. I'll whip anyone's ass at karaoke. You know I know ALL the words.



Hayden Panettiere looking like a very sparkly minx. Love it. Wait....the hair's back!



Tommy Hilfiger and his other daughter.


Molly Sims, looking fabulously sparkly. Love it.


STELLAR PERFORMANCES
I really do get quite disproportionately excited about great music. So I am sooo getting on youtube when I'm done here.


And finally, whoomp there it is! Beyonce, not one to miss sending the paps into overdrive, decided to show the world that big mother of a rock at the aptly named Fashion Rocks concert. If you must know, its a whopping 18 carats of bling which cost a stonking $5 million and was designed by her favourite blingologist Lorraine Schwartz. When you hear her sing At Last by Etta James, you'll understand why chica is aiming to be an icon (yes I stopped to watch a clip on youtube). That voice, that rock.



Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. Beyonce's voice was made for this type of music and I'm absolutely loving her performance with JT. B stole the show but c'est la vie.


And one more picture of them...they performed the Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell classic, Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing. Loved it.



One word. Fergalicious. I'll leave it at that.




Pussy Cat Dolls. In the words of Johnny Gill...my, my, my, my, my, my (and not in a good way).


The unmistakeable, inimitable Mary J Blige. For all her fashion sins, this woman can SING. And she's been looking mighty fine since she got married. Or re-married, not sure.


And then she performed with Kid Rock. They did a Temptations cover, I Know I'm Losing You. How interesting.



Mariah, is on fire. Another hard hitting, record breaking VOICE. Shows like this really sort the talent from the crap.




Strike a pose. Princess Riri covered Madonna's Vogue in this very Brazilian Carnival styled outfit. Hang on a minute. Its a little like a Josephine Baker outfit. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Beyonce wear that very famous banana skirt Josephine Baker styled outfit last year. Yawn. Slap the stylist.


And here's the whole very glamourous looking gang.

Tiger's Daily Bite...I like to poke

I like to poke fun. Especially after such a serious and wordy post (see below).

Haven't done a daily bite for a while. Been pretty rushed off my feet for the past few weeks. Ikeja is shaping up nicely. My inspiration has been a chocolate box. I'll let you know if I'm still running with that theme after the weekend. Everyone I've explained it to so far remains entirely unconvinced....but I've never let that stop me before..(unless after all's said and done I don't like how it looks).

So here's a bumper dose of Celebtastic Daily Bites to tide you over the weekend!


Just found a pic of fiddy and his baby momma...who knew!



Quincy, Quincy, Quincy. Here's the GranDaddy of Soul (age 70something) with his 20 year old girlfriend Heba Elawadi...a budding fashion designer. Hey, it worked for Georgina Chapman (you know...owns Marchesa...married to Harvey Weinstein....granddaddy of Hollywood)


Little and large. Now I've met B (yeah my buddy B) many moons ago, but she's about my height at best....and I'm not tall. And she's slimmer than she looks in pictures....so my question is how TINY is Eva?


There was something about Fergie's MAC campaign that looked a little odd to me. She looked very...different.

Then I found out. One of the funniest things I've read in a long time. A blogger (JustJared I think) accused the art director of this shoot of photoshopping the 'meth face' off Fergie. Meth face! Hysterical.....but true. That's one of the things I like about Fergie, her meth face! Ok, I'm being mean...but oh so true!



I love me some Lauryn. Listening to her now actually. But damn. Say no to crack people. And just in case this pic isn't enough of a deterrent, google Keith Richards from the Rolling Stones...that face makes him my favourite poster boy for any say no to crack campaign.


A penny for your thoughts?


For the most part I like Tyra but damn, ain't photoshop grand?


And lets end on a happy note......

Sanaa Lathan aka The Hotness. Wowza, she's WEARING that dress. Looks like a Dolce. I want one. Now.

Enjoy and if you can't be good, have fun being bad.
