Vogue vs. Vogue

Glee's version of Vogue vs. Madonna's head to head on this video from youtube. This is from their second episode in the back 9 or the last 9 episode ending season one. (Don't worry fellow Gleeks! They will be back for a second season as confirmed by Fox network)





BTW, I already got the photos from my trips and random outfit pictures but I don't want to end this week on a Narcissistic mode.

Let's Play Favorites

I wanted to share a beautiful trailer from the movie I am Love which stars my favorite actress Tilda Swinton. I AM LOVE tells the story of the wealthy Recchi family, whose lives are undergoing sweeping changes. Eduardo Sr., the family patriarch, has decided to name a successor to the reigns of his massive industrial company, surprising everyone by splitting power between his son Tancredi, and grandson Edo. But Edo dreams of opening a restaurant with his friend Antonio, a handsome and talented chef.

At the heart of the family is Tancredi's wife Emma (Tilda Swinton), a Russian immigrant who has adopted the culture of Milan. An adoring and attentive mother, her existence is shocked to the core when she falls quickly and deeply in love with Edo's friend and partner Antonio, and embarks on a passionate love affair that will change her family forever.

Here is the video.

I wonder if this movie will be shown here in the Philippines, I can only hope.

For those who are not familiar with Tilda Swinton, she is a British actress known for her arthouse (indie) and mainstream films. She was the White Witch Jadis in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. She had already won both an Oscar and a BAFTA for her performance as Karen Crowder in Michael Clayton. Incidentally, on the Oscar 2008, she wore very little makeup paired with her Lanvin gown (photo below). Another thing, she was the face of British clothing line Pringle of Scotland for their Spring Summer 2010 campaign (photo also shown below).

Tip on the Tightrope

I wanted to post everyday this week but nothing really special is on my mind right now. I have some posts but the photos are not available yet. So in lieu of all excuses, here is a video from newcomer Janelle Monae, she is a 24 year old lady from Kansas City. Her music genres is soul, funk, some rock and roll and a little new wave.

The video below is her latest (I think...) for her song Tightrope which features Big Boi from Outkast. I enjoyed watching this because of the little details in it. Like the clear frames the nurse is rocking and the fact that almost everyone is wearing tuxedo with cropped pants, bowtie, and spectator shoes... Hmm, wonder if I'll ever be brave enough to wear that ensemble.

Hope you enjoy it.
