Twins I came across. Plus one had cock on his shirt. Does that ever happen to you?

Deep into the MJ Memorial Bender. Deep.

Busy weekend. We embarked on the MJ Memorial Bender Thursday night after finding out about the tragic death of Michael Jackson while at the Triple M Event. The weekend rolled on, Friday I had a Cartier runway audition at the Ritz Carlton (keep your fingers crossed for that one! :) then was off to the DC Photo Co-Op meeting were I modeled for a lighting workshop, and hung out with with my insanely talented friends,Dr. Danny and Bo. But unfortunately my car got broken into and some stuff got stolen :( but once the cops cleared out, the party continued on to Ali's Gym Class themed party (ie our above silly gym outfits). Saturday was spent in vain trying to go see the movie, 'The Hangover' (appropriately titled for our weekend) but all seats were sold out. Minor setback, because we wrapped the weekend with a killer Sunday! Sunday, we did some filming on Pete's horror movie 'Kosher Cannibal'- (no blood in the scene, but all in good time:) Then the weekend was fittingly ended with Ali and I, parting MJ Memorial style on the rooftop penthouse @ The Beacon Hotel. A complete success.

New Pics Of Me For The Blog

I added new pics to the slide on the right of the blog, what do you think? : )

Triple M Event Recap

You know I hang out with the hot bitches (from right: Chris, Jon, Bo Himself, Mo)

The DJ who played 'I'm In Miami Trick' for me!! I heart Ultrabar!!

Me and one of the club's owner, Jon- guy you need to know!

Me and the other models

The Triple M Event last night was such a good time thanks to all my wonderful friends who showed up, and Ultrabar's hospitality! A special thank you to Salsabella for putting it together, Valeria for doing my makeup, Ali, Chris and Bo for coming out and supporting, Ultrabar's DJ for taking requests, and definitely a thank you to one of the owner's Jon (see above pic) for being such a phenomenal host, it was a great night! The fashion show (see top picture) was a fundraiser for The Special Olympics. That first shot was taken by photographer, David Randall (aka Photo Dr). Bo Himself (first pic of him ever above!) didn't bring his camera :( But took the above sweet blue shot of me with my camera, can you imagine the damage he could have done with his own camera!! We had free range of the beautiful club, which use to be a bank and has about 1,000 floors, definitely my new favorite club in DC! Perfect club for a photo shoot too! But all and all, the night was a great time, and we raised some money for a wonderful cause!

Song Of The Week

The song of the week this week was recommended to me by my older bother. It's Hot Boyz, "You're a Jerk." Then I found this sick dance to it, so I had to post it! This video is choreography by J.R. Taylor, but you can see the offical music video here.

Bo & Danny's Polaroid Pics

Danny's:

Bo's:

At my house party on Saturday, I bought some Polaroids and was hoping amazing photographers, Danny and Bo would want to take a few snaps... My senior year in college I chose my final project to be with Polaroids (since they have ended production of them), and ever since I've had a love affair with their rawness, nostalgic quality and the fact they are one of a kind! Since I got into modeling, I've always thought it would be fun to do a Polaroid photo shoot. No one has taken me up on the offer so I thought I would pop it to my two favs @ my house party. Thankfully they humored me, and the outcome was these amazing shots! Read Bo's reaction to shooting Polaroids, very insightful! Hopefuly they will want to do some more sometime! :)

America's Got Talent Premieres Tonight

Video Recaps | Full Episodes | Webisodes

Well, it's finally here. The premiere of America's Got Talent. I was a model for a contestant, Up Do Queen (you can read my blog post about it here). We got to meet those 3 kids singing in the beginning of the above clip, Nick Cannon, and about half of the other people in that video! But if you ask me, from the acts we heard, the above group Status Quo is going to go the distance! :) Be sure to tune in tonight NBC @ 9/8c to see if our act made it to TV!

Housewarming Party

Me and my lil sis:

The man, DJ Pete

Me and Faye

The hosts:

The boys playing beer pong

3am, That's how you end a party! :)

Oh how fortunate we are to have such great friends, and what an awesome party! So many talented and wonderful people came out, like my two favorite photographers: Danny (Visceral Photography), and Bo (Boandbro.com), runner up best local DC designer, Ginger (Booshie Designs), model (and pictured above) Faye, and tons of other friends! (If you came and have a website, e-mail me, and I will add you as well :) We had people out back playing games in the huge lawn, people downstairs playing pool and beer pong, and listening to the one of the best local DJ's, DJ Pete (pictured above) and upstairs we had Call of Duty on the PS3. All the while BBQing, and hitting the keg. One hell of a good time! If you couldn't make it, don't worry, there will be more to come! Danny and Bo also took some Polaroids of me, so stay posted for those, and the next big party! :)

Little Green Dress Photo Shoot In New York

Me and the designer Tina

Just another day in the office for me (and potentially the cover shot of the book :)

Me and the other model that shot that day

I work hard.

Just got back this morning from my shoot up in New York for a DIY (do it yourself) clothing book called 'Little Green Dresses' being published in 2010. It was shot by Erica Beckman, the clothes (including the four outfits I'm wearing in the above shots) were designed, and hand made by Ms. Tina Sparkle. It was definitely an honor to be cast this shoot! There were over 150+ models that applied, they invited 50 to audition in New York, though I was unable to attend. But they liked my look so much, and based solely on my pictures, they cast me as one of the 6 models for the book! Plus, it paid well, I got 7 different looks, and was a load of fun :) Can't wait to get a copy of the best DIY book ever made, and stay posted for Erica's amazing pics!

Bo Zhang's Sweet Candid Shots

Swwweet shots of Chris and I thanks to Mr. Bo Himself! Who, somehow snuck these wonderful pictures. The one's of Chris and I are from a lovely afternoon we had lunch with Bo in Old Town Alexandria. The one of Chris alone is from The DC Photo Co-Op Meeting on the Chesapeake Bay. Though I'm half torn between the top picture of us looking like a sweet ass Macy's ad, and the bottom pic of us looking like first class assholes. Which might be true :) Not to mention the wicked Nautica type shot in the middle! What can I say, as always, Bo has done it again! See you when I get back from NY!

Busy Week

Busy next couple of days. Tomorrow I work all day, then Wednesday morning at 9am I'm going up to New York. I have a fitting at 2pm for my Thursday photo shoot. After the fitting I'm hoping to meet up with my friend Shakyra, (that's her and I above with MTV's Status Quo @ America's Got Talent (blog recap here). Be sure to watch America's Got Talent June 23rd on NBC, we might be on it!) Then it's an all day shoot on Thursday for a DIY clothing book designed by Tina Sparkles .You can read an interview and see a sample of her cuutttee stuff here. Hopefully I'll get to keep something :) The photographer for the photo shoot is Erica Beckman with a huge crew of about 15 (hair stylist, art director, photo assistants, photo interns etc). It's a sweet paid gig, and it's for possibly the cover of the book :)

Then my little sister flies in on Friday, and the house party on Saturday! So, busy next couple of days!! I'll try to post if I can, but stay up dated with me on Twitter (they are also posted on the left of my blog :) And stay tuned for behind the scenes pics of the photo shoot and more!

Hot Chicks With Douchebags

From the website:

From my experience:

Speaking of my brother and funny (which are pretty much synonyms). He told me about this website: Hot Chicks With Douchebags, sooo funny. The top picture is my favorite from the website, and the bottom is me and some guy at the Booshie Ball. (Photo taken by Jesse Justice Photography) I'm not sure which of us is the douchebag, but he's at least got a SPARKS :)

Funnies E-Mail. Ever.

I got this e-mail, and it was so obnoxious I had to forward it to my brother. His response is after the e-mail.

Wulf Treu

Polaroid taken by me of Wulf holding my favorite piece of his art, 'Art Pussy'

Wulf's art:

Mr. Wulf Treu! I met this genius when I was working at the best art gallery in Miami, Art Futures. He was showing his art there and I was lucky enough to make his acquaintance. He is by far my favorite contemporary artist showing these days, and I'm still saving my pennies for the above piece of art, Art Pussy. He is a multi faceted and excels in photography, mixed media, video art etc. He has shown in galleries around the world, and one piece of his art sells for more than I make in a year. You can check out some his video art on his YouTube site here. His work is witty, understated, provocative, and to me, obtains the most vital aspect of art, the ability to make you feel, to make you think. Locally, he has art at the Conner Gallery a piece of video art, ''YOU KNOW MY NAME'' a fashion video with his wonderful crossdresser assistant as the star. PLUS he makes ass kicking clothes with his studio's logo on it "Garage 69" (as you can see in the above shirt he's wearing!) Like I said, multi talented, amazing artist that you should definitely keep under your radar!
You can contact Wulf at: wulftreu@yahoo.com
