The Little Prince

You are responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.

This is a quote from one of my favorite books, The Little Prince. It is a children book that I bought in Paris last year from a street vendor. I never expected the book to have so much meaning to me. I find myself reading this book a lot lately. It has many lessons for adults, about whats really important in life. It's about seeing things through the eyes of a child.We need to start looking beyond the surface of things...

Do yourself a HUGE favor and go buy this book. It is only with one's heart that one can see clearly. What is essential is invisible to the eye.

"He who would travel happily must travel light".....man does this quote from the book apply to me right now! With this thought in mind I must go rethink my packing situation. :-) Leaving tomorrow!

You make me feel so glam.

I cannot beileve how amazing 2010 has been so far. The best part...it's only going to get better. I'm in the middle of trying to pack for Europe. I hope this trip becomes life changing for me because of all the awesome people i'm meeting at Midem (http://www.midem.com/)! I also have a lot of test gigs of in Europe, just to test all the markets. I plan on coming home with bruised and bloody legs. ;-) hehhe

So back to the packing thing....I have no idea what t take, how much to take and how to fit it all in this tiny suitcase. Ugh....Im in big trouble!

I've been getting a lot of insiration lately from Edie Sedgwick. She was so beautiful and always herself. Her dark eyes always hid so many secrets. I feel her.  I did another shoot with Dawn Derbyshire about a week ago. These shots are some of my favorite...I'm shaking away any bad vibes.



None of you know what goes on inside. I'm okay, I know.

So Happy I could Die

I just got home from Chicago and I came home with so much more than I ever expected. I came with the most incredible inspiration. I came home with more desire than ever to work my ass off. Gaga, your fans are incredible, I was sooo moved by the way everyone sang, jumped, cried, and felt everything you did. We were all one in that theater...we were your little monsters.


Thank you Gaga for giving me even more reason to work hard. I want to feel what you feel on stage. I pray and work for that everyday, so thank you for making me want it even more.

There was two opening acts, Semi Precious Weapons and Jason Derulo. Let me tell you I am now a HUGE fan of SPW.  These guys were so glamorous and fabulous! The singer even rocked 5 inch heels!! What's not to love?!


If anyone has the chance to go see the Lady...do whatever you can to go. Thank you sooo much Mark for everything on this trip....it was so wonderful.

Snow snow go away!

It's been snowing like crazy here in Pittsburgh...ugh! Everyone is feeling the weather, even down south! I'm about to head out the door and drive 8 hours in this crazy weather. Why, you may ask???

For my Gagaloo! Oooo how I can't wait for this night...i've been wanting to see her live for awhile now. I fear that after this concert i'm going to become even more of a fan. I'll update you on the trip :-)...keep your fingers crossed for clear roads! At least Mark is an expert driver *rolls eyes* hehehehe!

I'm also excited because on the way to Chicago there are about 40 Waffle Houses....my favorite!

Thank you very much for absolutely nothing.....

I just read a email from my Dad today, and it really got me thinking. I wrote a song almost three years ago. It was a song about my hurt and pain I felt. In the email my Dad was writing his thoughts on the song.


"I listen to your song several times. I hate to admit it but its good. Hate to admit it only because of the negative message. You got it out now think and live a positive approach to life. Its not always fair but you will win the final victory"

To the naked eye it has negative and hateful lyrics but the true meaning is something beautiful and positive.  hate that people always look for the negative first and not the positive. I ask my Father respectfully, who is it really the one being negative?? I can't wait for you all to hear my song it's very meaningful to me, and it will be fun to see if anyone else is able to understand the hidden positive message and the irony.

On that note I'm so excited to tell everyone that I will be posting new previews of my new music in a few days. Now, I'm not going to post the full song....Just small snippets! I can't wait to hear the feedback :-)

I have never been so proud of my music...so that should tell you something!

The other day I had a really amazing shoot with my three favorite girls Dawn, Ade and Ali! I made a short small video of the shoot...its a little cheesy hahaha!! I would always stop anything I'm doing to work with these girls, they are the definition of fabulous. The pictures will be done in a few weeks, until then enjoy the video!!

Watch the video! :-)

Fire and Ice

Had a wonderful couple of days! I just got my clothes from the amazing Ali Pace! I had her make me a few performing outfits for Europe...and damn they look good :-) I did a photoshoot the other day in them, so soon you can see the magic created! We had an incredible team, Dawn as the photog, Ade on Make up, Ali as wardrobe and me as the model!


I also got my hair done, it's 24 inches of craziness plus I got the A symmetrical bang. I love all the change that's happening in 2010! So fun :-)

Here are the last of the pics I got back from Kristen Weaver, she is sooo amazing! I can't wait to work with her again!!

XOXO
