A She Wolf for Halloween?

HALLOWEEN. I was talking to S about what to dress up as this Halloween. I don’t have a party to go to or anything but ever since I was a kid I get excited about Halloween because I love getting dressed up. It would be fun to dress up as Shakira in her new music video for the song She Wolf. I always did like using the occassion to get dressed up rather than make myself look scary or gross (although I know that is the point).

Last year I was in Prague during Halloween and dressed up as Cleopatra. My roomates were Minnie Mouse and Marilyn Monroe. It was great fun. S dressed up as ghostbusters last year, he made his own costume and it looked so awesome!

What are you dressing up as this Halloween?

SHAKIRA’S NEW SINGLE, SHE WOLF, has got some bad reviews, but I have to say I like it! Maybe it’s just because I love the video. A good video has a tendency to make the song that much better. Shakira is so hot I can’t even stand it. Look at her body and the way she moves! She’s amazing. I’d kill for a body and moves like that. Gaah!

Do you like her new song?

Kanye West is a jackass!

This weekend, during the MTV Video Music Awards, country singer Taylor Swift won a moonman for best video. During her thank you speech Kanye West ran up and grabbed the mic away from Swift to give a shoutout to Beyonce who he said “has one of the best videos of all time!”

Seriously, what a jerk! What is his problem!? That guy seriously needs to step down from the little throne he’s put himself on. Like he’s somebody. Pfft!

Word, Obama, word!



Official video for “When I look at you”

I wrote a post about Miley Cyrus new song a while ago (I know, what’s wrong with me – right?) I just noticed the official video for the song has been released and I have to admit it’s a little too corny for my taste, and her miming isn’t all that convincing in the video. With that said, I still think the song is pretty.

Juliette Lewis is coming to Stockholm! I’m not a huge fan but I did have a phase in my teens when I blasted You’re Speaking My Language so the speakers on my stereo rattled.

Juliette Lewis is coming to Berns the 31st of October for a concert and I might actually go, I’m sure she’d be really cool to see in real life since she always gives it her all when she’s on stage performing. Who’s game?



New music from Miley Cyrus – what!?

Okay, I never thought I’d be mentioning Miley Cyrus in this blog (or in any context), and especially not to praise her. But then I came across her new song When Look at You and I actually like it. Did i just say that?

Truth is, I know hardly anything about this little teeny bopper, aside from some big drama about a naked magazine cover a while back. I like the raspiness in her voice in this new song. I guess I should mention that I have never heard any of her music before.

Is it worth it to listen to any of her other songs?

Things to avoid if you’re going through a mid life crisis

Mom called to wish me a happy birthday. Told her I’m going through a bit of a mid life crisis. Mid life crisis? She said with a laugh. At 22? Yes mom, at 22. I need more action in my life. Never satisfied, always craving more.

Just happened to go through some photos on my laptop from last summer, shouldn’t have done that. Word of advice – don’t go through photos of yourself when you were younger, freshly tanned and thinner when you’re having a low day and anxious about your age and place in life. It’s like suffocating yourself.

Good thing there’s a remedy (well, sort of, more like a kiss on the booboo). Today, mine is music:
John Mayer – Say
Roisin Murphy – Ramalama
Hot Chip – Ready for the floor
Kanye West – All Falls Down
The Ting Tings – Shut up and let me go

Give me more music suggestions! What are you listening to right now?
