Galliano's Male Corsets

During his Menswear fashion show John Galliano dressed his male models in Corsets.



On one hand I find them kinda Seksi, but on the other I don't see the point. Is this the future on men's fashion?

Madonna Helps Haiti

Here is a video of The Queen performing at the Help For Haiti Telethon in America last night. I love how much Madonna gets into the performance that she forgets her cue! lol

M xoxo

P.S. She has also donated $250,000 to the cause.

S.A.G Awards Best Dressed

In my opinion the BEST DRESSED woman at the Screen Actors Guild awards was Sandra Bullock HANDS DOWN! Alot of people are saying that Kate Hudson was the best dressed, but in a white backless gown, it's all been done before! I thought Sandra's Black & Blue embellished Alexander McQueen gown suited her body perfectly! Her make up was demure & her hair was bang on trend!


FABULOUS!

& now for the WORST DRESSED...

Julianna Margulies



Ok when is it EVER ok to wear velvet?! let alone to an awards ceremony!!! it looks like she's ripped down the curtains at the hotel & ran out the door!

Avenue Q

I went to see Avenue Q for the first time last night & I absolutley loved it! I thought it was really funny and well written. The songs were really good & pushed every possible boundary, ie. Racism, Sexuality & porn! lol
The main attraction of the show was the lead actor; Daniel Boys! I AM IN LOVE!!!
He gorgeous, funny & a really great singer! I went with my friend Marie & throughout the night she as taunting me because he was straight, but when we got home I found out that he is GAY GAY GAY!!! In your face Marie! lol

Here is a BEAUTIFUL pic of my future husband! lol

Strike A Pose... Sue

Jane Lynch, who plays Sue Sylvester in Glee has confirmed that she will be singing Vogue in the upcoming Madonna episode in April! I'm so excited for this episode as I'm sure you're aware, I ADORE Madonna! Roll on Glee...

Heidi Montag's New Look

I've always thought that Lauren Conrad was an over the top idiot & have been Team Heidi since day one! Heidi has recently had lots of new cosmetic surgery & I think she looks great! I love how fake she is, I know that sounds bad but it's true! Fake hair, fake nails, fake boobs, fake lips, FAKE FAKE FAKE = LOVE LOVE LOVE! lol

Lindsay Lohan at 2010 Golden Globes

I think Lindsay looked absolutley stunning at The Golden Globes this year!
Perez Hilton has been running her into the ground saying that she looks more like she's going to a party & that 4 other people have worn the dress in public before, but I don't give a shit about all that. It's the best she has looked in a LONG time!

It's Noice, It's Different, It's Unuusual...

I've been back at Uni just over a week now. At first I felt really sad that I had to leave home & missed my family, especially my mum for the first few days, but I settled back into Uni life again, the drinking, the lectures, the sleeping until 2pm, that kind of thing.

I'm going home this weekend which will be nice. I always find that 2 weeks in London is the perfect amount of time, because I'm not desperate to stay or desperate to leave either, it's a happy medium! Since being back at Roehampton I've rediscovered my love for the Australian comedy show "Kath & Kim"! it's just so funny! I think the reason why the American version never took off is simply because everything is funny in a thick australian accent, wheres an american accent isn't as funny, it's just annoying after a while! lol

Here is a clip from Kath & Kim. Kylie Minogue guest stars in this episode;



I LOVE Kylie <3

Calvin Klein Spring/Summer 2010 Campaign

WOWZA

This is one of the new photos from the S/S Calvin Klein campain & they are sizzling!

Jamie Dornan looks super sexy, shame about Eva Mendes... just kidding! lol

Drop Crotch Pants

I used to detest Drop Crotch/Harem Pants, but now I'm starting to see the benefits; comfort & style, which is a rare find! I really want a pair & have tried some womens ones on in Primark & they were so sheer you could see my blue underwear underneath & I wasn't down with that! lol
Here is a pair of grey Jersey Drop Crotch Pants;


Is it wrong to find them kind of beautiful? The verdict is still out...

Back in Roey...

So I'm back at Uni now, I had to come back yesterday because the snow in my hometown is absolutley mental & didn't wanna get caught in it, so my mum drove me up a day early.
When I first got back I was a little sad because I'd been so used to my home comforts & seeing my mum everyday & knew that I'd have to get readjusted with Uni life, but after a while I got settled back in. I sorted everything in my room, put up my Zac Efron calendar, plugged in my new speakers & was sorted.
I spent my evening with my friend Aimee, we played scrabble, snakes & ladders & bop it, all whilst drinking obv! lol then we decided to have a snow fight, which was absolutley mental! lol
We also found a snowman duck someone had made, then named it Waddles & proceeded to murder it! lol

Everyone is back tonight, so hopefully there should be a big party! I can't wait to see Gary, Marie & Line <3

More Madonna + Dolce & Gabbana

Here is a little taster of things to come from the Madonna + Dolce & Gabbana campaign;




She looks so demure & more amazingly age appropriate! I think it makes a nice change to not see Madonna in a leotard or fishnet tights. I hope it's a sign of things to come...

Gagalicious

Lady Gaga has teamed up with Polaroid as a creative director to try & give the dying cameras a boost. I think this is a great idea as I love Polaroids & I love Gaga! 2 very original things coming together to make what I'm sure is going to be something amazing! Here is what Gaga had to say about the collaboration;

"The Haus of Gaga has been developing prototypes in the vein of fashion/technology/photography innovation - blending the iconic history of Polaroid and instant film with the digital era - and we are excited to collaborate on these ventures with the Polaroid brand. Lifestyle, music, art, fashion: I am so excited to extend myself behind the scenes as a designer, and to - as my father puts it - finally have a real job."

I can't wait to see the new Gaga Polaroids!

M xoxo

Katy Perry

I absolutley adore Katy Perry.

I've just seen a few new pictures on cocoperez.com & I think she looks absolutely beautiful & I'm so glad she has settled down with Russell Brand, I think they are perfect for eachother & can tame eachother, in all the right ways. I really hope they work it out!

I've seen Katy Perry live at Brighton last year & I hate to say that I was rather dissapointed! Sure she looked gorgeous & her songs were sung well, she just couldn't hold the audiences attention & she just kept talking! I doubt I'd go see her live again.

Anyways back to these photos! how beautiful does Katy look?

M xoxo

Let It Snow???

Snow...

On one hand I love it! it takes me back to being a kid, playing in the snow & just having a laugh about. On the other hand it fucks everything up! I'm going back to London on Sunday, but it says on BBC Weather that there is going to be heavy snow in Roehampton, but in Tonbridge the snow will be light, whereas on Saturday it's the complete opposite.

The main roads should be clear & it's main roads all the way from Tonbridge to Roehampton, so fingers crossed I'll be able to get back...

Le Dentist

I just got back from having a Root Canal at the dentist! let me tell you one thing! it FUCKING hurts!!! my dentist was all like "no it wont hurt, it'll be fine" LIAR! lol

I've been having pain in this tooth for quite some time now & I arranged to have it taken out, but when I got there my dentist as adamant that I shouldn't have it taken out, because it can be saved & that I'd regret it. so she agreed to give me a root canal for the same price as an extraction, which was really nice of her!

So here I am, curled up in bed, I've taken 2 Ipbuprofen & 2 Cocodamol & I've got a hot water bottle wrapped in a pillow case resting on my face! lets hope the pain goes away!

Kathy Griffin On Madonna

Madonna + Dolce & Gabbana = FABOOSH!!!

So I've known for a while that Madonna is teaming up with D&G for thier Spring/Summer 2010 ad campaign, but D&G created a website especially for the Madonna promotions. I love when Madonna is the face of companies as it gives her more exposure & that means I get to see Billboards & pictures in magazines, which is always immense!
Roll on Spring 2010 & the Madonna onslaught!

Another Rant...

This time about Perez Hilton...

He used to be awesome, but now he is a bitchy, fame hungry twat! I've been reading PerezHilton.com for about 5/6 years now & I remember how he used to be a bit of a bitch, but not in the malicious way he does now.

He is such a hypocrite, calling people out on things they have done, but if Lady Gaga was to do the same, to him it would be innovative, amazing & fresh! If Gaga walked down the street covered in monkey shit he would say it's the best thing to EVER happen! He also seems to think that he is Gaga's BFF, but you can clearly tell he is not, sure they're probably friends, but not in the way he makes out. He always refers to her as Wifey on his website, yet it seems like he has no clue what is going on with her life or career, not at least until everyone else does. When you see photos of them together he seems to be desperatley clinging onto her (& her fame).

He barrates celebs like Lindsay Lohan & Heidi Montag, calling them fame whores, when he is just the same as they are, even worse, because at least they can admit that they a fame hungry, Perez pretends that he isn't, he pretends that he is still the same humble guy, sitting in the coffee shop where he used to write, when we all know he is a fame whore himself!!!

P.S.

Quick Rant

Why are the banks such twats?

I want to extend my overdraft, as promised that I could in January when I signed up for a student account at Lloyds TSB. So I called them up & they said I'm not eligible at the moment, it could be because it's just not ready yet, or because of a poor credit rating.

I told the woman on the phone that I had been promised this overdraft extenstion & that the fact that the overdraft was teired was why I was interested in it & she then tells me that I might not be eligible if I have a bad credit rating, which I do. This is totally annoying because the whole reason we are in a bloody recession is because the banks borrowed money that they didn't have & now they're are telling me I can't extend my overdraft because I might not have the money to pay it back. I explained to them that I get a student loan, but I think the woman on the phone was just a bitch.

Lloyds TSB = Hypocritic Wankers!!!!

Trouser + Shoes = Shrousers

Why do I kinda want these?

They are jeans attached to converse shoes!

Franssexual

I'm going to The Hop House resturant with one of my best friends Fran tonight! it's kind of our "thing", everytime I'm back from Uni we always go for a meal, usually at The Hop House, becasue meals are 2 for £10.

I've spent most of this Christmas holiday with Fran, & I know I'm really gonna miss her when I go back on Sunday, but she is coming up to see me on 6th Feb. She has said she would come up a few times before, but it just never happened. I REALLY hope she comes up this time!

M xoxo

Roisin Murphy

Roisin Murphy has a new song coming out called Momma's Place.
I heard Momma's place a few months ago when someone posted the link to Roisin singing it at a DJing gig. It's a really dancey clubbing track & I love it. Now I've discovered she is releasing it as a single! GOOD TIMES!

Here is it;



After listening, I'm not sure if I prefer the live edit?!
Here is a link to that live edit;

Missing Persons

My friend Emily has an acquired taste in music & she is always introducing me to wierd & wonderful artists & music. (sometimes they aren't so wonderful lol)
the other day Emily introduced me to an 80s New Wave band called Missing Persons. she told me about them because the lead singer is very similar to Lady Gaga & it's obvious how she has been an influence.

I listened to them & I really love them now, their music is quintisentially 80s! it's so mellow and electronic, even the up tempo songs have a kind of melancholy, ballad like quality, & I love that!

Here is a video of my favourite Missing Persons song, Windows;



I'm sure you can see where Gaga get her Je Ne Sais Quoi from.
After looking at pictures & watching videos, I was in total awe of Dale Bozio, the lead singer, well until I found out she is in prison for cat cruelty! not awesome at all, but 80s Dale is amazing none the less!

M xoxo

p.s. I'm also loving Passion Pit atm...

I'm such a Gleek...

My name is Martyn & I'm a Gleek...

Ok, so I'm obsessed with a new TV show, literally obsessed!

I'd heard about a programme in America called Glee that was refered to as the "grown up" High School Musical. When I heard that I thought to myself that i will just have to check it out! I didn't really bother with it until about 3 days ago when I was flippantly scanning through Surf The Channel, when I saw Glee Season One & then remembered about this amazing HSM inspired show & clicked on it.

OMG I was in LOVE!!! it was everything I could hope for! There was drama, there was lies, there was beautiful men, but best of all; there was SINGING!!!

Here's a little taster;

Like A Virgin

Hey,

My name is Martyn, I'm 21 & I'm currently studying at Roehampton University. I am doing a degree in Drama, Theatre & Performance Studies & one day hope to become a Drama Teacher at secondary school level. I'm a big flaming mo & proud of it! You wont catch me moaning that no one loves me cos I'm gay on this blog! lol I absolutley ADORE Madonna & worship the ground she walks on, I always tell people that I love her so much I would pick her gum up off the ground & chew it. That grosses most people out, but I tell them it just to show how much I love the her MADGEsty! <3

So I'm already at university, currently on my Christmas break. I had a blog before this one, but totally neglected it when I started Uni in September, but after a chat in the pub with my friend Emily I decided to revive my blog writing experience by starting a brand spanking new one, you know new year, new start & all the shit! lol

In this blog I'm going to be talking mainly about whats going on in my life & what I get up to living in London, but I'll also be making some posts about the music I listen to, the movies & TV shows I watch & the men I lust over, but know I'll never have! lol

I hope you enjoy <3
