I think I will stop posting here in Multiply. This site started only as my back-up blog. I’m sticking to only one blog now. It has been fun here. For updates (not that you care) check out:
I rarely have crushes. Yeah, I know a beautiful boy when I see one but rarely do I have a fixation to only just one. Enter Ash Stymest. He’s the epitome of perfection. He’s everything I want my physical self to be. Let’s compare and contrast shall we? He has tats. I’m scared shit to have one. He’s thin. I’m obese. He’s British. I’m trying to have an accent but always an epic fail. He’s seventeen. I’m fucking ancient. Ah the beauty of youth.
Manila weather is bipolar. One minute it’s hot then the other it’s raining. Add to that Swine Flu. Perfect! So yeah, I was inspired by thisand this. You always have to werq it even if it’s fucking raining.
It has been a week now since I started my Kpop ban. Yes. I love Kpop but it has been occupying a huge chunk of my brain activities that I feel like it’s rotting not only my intelligence but also my soul. Of course, that’s not really a bad thing. And now I’m experiencing withdrawal syndrome. I need me some senseless pop with good dancing damn it!
So yeah, the boys are back. I got SHINee’s album last month and I honestly did not like it. There were some brill moments but mostly it was blah. However, in Kpop, music should not be judged by music alone. Kpop is the whole package. It includes jail bait too-hot-for-your-eyes boys (and girls too), crazy fashions, brilliant dancing and yeah that’s about it. Take for example my favorite gay boy band SHINee.
Yes. That’s a pink halter Key is wearing. Yup. Minho in that green off shoulder top. Uh-hu. Those are pale colored cow boy boots that Lindsay Lohan used to wear. And you’re correct. Those are (what looked like) cockroach brooches pinned in their tops. Crazy? Of course not! I want every single thing they’re wearing. Damn it. I need me some scissors for I need to make a top just like Minho’s (boy in green).
Okay. Sandara Park you’re next.
You all know how much I like Sandy. Okay. She’s known as DARA in Korea now. Whatever. Anyway, her band has been doing rounds at music shows. They’re all very brill but YG Entertainment is not good with promotions. SHINee reached #1 without even doing an effort. I guess the girls should come out with something more brill. Or maybe they should just feature Big Bang every time they have a single out. Haha.
Yeah. Dara looked like the female Taeyang in that performance. But I’m loving the gender bender. Go Sandy! Errr… Dara!
This is what I looked like before the debauchery. Gwapo no? The after picture you will not want to see. I had so much fun though. Thank gawd we had the whole roof top to ourselves or I might have embarrassed my friends greatly. Haha. I’m sober now with no hang over (because I think I already vomited everything).
My birthday was a month ago and I never really celebrated it. I had some money but I spent it going to the beach. Anywhoo, I wasn’t able to buy myself something. You see every year I always have to get something new. Call me materialistic. And yes I admit that I buy clothes for temporary happiness just so I can forget how much of a shit my life is. LOL. Now on to the cool stuff…
You can just imagine how happy I am to get my own Maison Martin Margiela. Well, this bitch can’t afford the runway looks so I’ll get the shirt nalang. Actually, I found out about this through my designer online friend Don and also Chuvaness. They have this shirt. And of course, being me, I wanted one too. Haha. The photos above doesn’t do it justice so here’s a cute boy modeling it.
In Cubao X (this is the place to be ya’ll) I found this really cool sneakers by Miharayasuhiro. It’s part Converse part silver leather. Once I saw this beauty I immediately grabbed it and never let it go. I don’t really know much about the designer. Well, aside from him/her being Japanese and doing collaborations with Converse and Puma. When I saw this, Spaceman by The Killers was blasting on my headphones. I’m not kidding. It really was fate. And I got it at a really cheap price. There was this chic mayaman looking guy following me in the store gawking at MY sneakers. Bitch, akin to! Haha.
I also got these: A John Galliano knockoff and a leather vest (from China, I think). Now these were really dirt cheap since I got it at the ukay also in Cubao X. I’ve been listening too much of Johan Palm that I bought these to look like him. Haha.
Here’s a bonus pic of nanay. She’s now back in Cotabato to spread her fierceness there. Haha. I miss you long time nay!
I really really really have to watch this film. Like, now na! The last good Filipino film I watched was Daybreak and that was a long time ago. My film buff friend Carl already watched it (without inviting me, grrrr) and said it was so-so pero ang ganda daw ng dance sequences and the acting was decent enough. Whatevs! Gusto ko panoorin to. It's showing now. Tara sa sinehan mga friends! And the lead guy boy is cute too.
I had lunch with my family kanina. Everybody was there including my cousins. So much fun. We ate in this Japanese restaurant with insane prices. We had shabu-shabu (which by the way is so good you’ll forget dieting) and my jaw dropped at the price. Sorry ha, I’m not into eating out and spending on food when I can eat Lucky Me for less than 10 pesos at home. LOL. And of course I ate like a pig. Thank you Tita Tess. Then went camwhoring. Haha. Xempre suot ko is my LV knockoff C2 shirt. LOL. I call my look neo-jologs.
Yeah. Ako lang ang hindi naka ngiti and with the same awkward pose.
Guess what I found at Collezione by Rhett Eala? Doesn’t this remind you of the in-your-face-it’s-fucking-everywhere Stephen Sprouse for Louis Vuitton? I love it! Or should I say LVoe! I will be wearing this tomorrow. I want to channel Ruffa Gutierrez.
Sad news for all the loving gays in America. Prop fucking 8 was upheld. That means my lovely sisters in the land of the free won’t be able to get married anymore. But the fight is not over. On a lighter note, how insane is that photo? Winner!
LOS ANGELES — AT&T, one of the biggest corporate sponsors of “American Idol,” might have influenced the outcome of this year’s competition by providing phones for free text-messaging services and lessons in casting blocks of votes at parties organized by fans of Kris Allen, the Arkansas singer who was the winner of the show last week.
Representatives of AT&T, whose mobile phone network is the only one that can be used to cast “American Idol” votes via text message, provided the free text-messaging services at two parties in Arkansas after the final performance episode of “American Idol” last week, according to the company and people at the events.
There appear to have been no similar efforts to provide free texting services to supporters of Adam Lambert, who finished as the runner-up to Mr. Allen.
Since then, angry supporters of Mr. Lambert have flooded online chat boards with messages claiming irregularities in the competition’s voting.
Officials of Fox Broadcasting declined to discuss the situation. In a statement issued Tuesday, a spokesman for AT&T said, “In Arkansas, we were invited to attend the local watch parties organized by the community. A few local employees brought a small number of demo phones with them and provided texting tutorials to those who were interested.”
Details of the voting support were first reported last week in an article in The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.
Representatives of AT&T helped fans of Mr. Allen at the two Arkansas events by providing instructions on how to send 10 or more text messages at the press of a single button, known as power texts. Power texts have an exponentially greater effect on voting than do single text messages or calls to the show’s toll-free phone lines. The efforts appear to run afoul of “American Idol” voting rules in two ways. The show broadcasts an on-screen statement at the end of each episode warning that blocks of votes cast using “technical enhancements” that unfairly influence the outcome of voting can be thrown out.
And the show regularly states that text voting is open only to AT&T subscribers and is subject to normal rates.
Just like every gay person, I am a momma’s boy. She taught me everything I know about how to match clothes and how to apply concealer. I love this woman. So anyway, she’s here to visit for the week. When Kam and I picked her up at the airport yesterday I was tres shocked. She lost major poundage. Like 10 lbs. maybe. She told us quitting Coke (the soda) and taking belly dancing did the trick. Hmmm…
I was doing my daily rounds of Japanese fashion blog-hopping and lookie lookie at what I found. We have the same pants. LOL. I just find this really funny. So who do you think rocked it better? Him or me? I chopped off the head since obviously this guy is better looking than me. My arms look weird. I need to work on better poses. Argh.
Moving on...
Now here’s what I really wanted to show you. Pwede na ba? Do I look like Hikaru na ba? Should I start doing porn also? LOL. Hikaru is the Japanese Brent Corrigan. If you know what I mean.
Sex videos are popular now eh? I’m really not sure how I feel about the Hayden Kho fiasco but it sure is fun entertainment. Much like Edison Chen. But at least I got to see Edison’s wang and all I got from Hayden was blurry imagination. Argh. I feel dirty for admitting watching that crap. It’s your fault Bons! Anywhoo, this post is not about stupid Filipino doctors and their camera fetish but of a young hottie who likes sucking errr… things. And it’s not blood this time.
It’s not really a sex video per se but it is a video and there is sex. Well, almost. Watch watch watch. But be sure the doors are closed.
Quite decent noh? It’s actually for the movie Little Ashes. And it's with a boy!
In related news, Mr. Rob Pattinson will also star in a Bel Ami movie. Shock! Well, don’t scream just yet silly. Yes, he’s making a movie but not for this Bel Ami. The title is just “Bel Ami”. But I could just imagine.
There are only three things that could describe SHINee’s new music video.
1) It’s.
2) fucking.
3) brilliant.
Beyond words. Okay okay okay. All you Kpopers might say that they recycled their old concept and just made it glossier while mashing up good bits from Replay and Oxygen. Okay you’re right to some point. But there’s always a time in a band’s career when they have to decide whether to be something new or just continue with the same old shit. Now, continuing with the same old shit can either be a totally brilliant idea or an epic fail. In my opinion, SHINee doesn’t need any changing just yet.
Watch amazingness below. This is in extremely low quality. Some fans just copied it off Mnet I think.
That right there is the reason why I love Kpop so much. Amazing bits are: at :58 Taemin does a mean hip thrust that can cause Noonas spasms; at 2:18 Jonghyun screams; and at 3:13 Minho reveals his new nose.
Forget American Idol for Swedish Idol is the shizz. Yeah, I’m so over Kris winning. Argh. America is fucking deaf damn it. Anyway, on to another country. Everybody knows that Sweden produces the best music in the whole universe. Think Abba, Robyn and Alcazar *lol*. Swedish Idol produced some of my favorite pop acts like Ola and Danny Saucedo (who I’ve blogged countless times already). But enough references. Let’s talk about that handsome boy up there who can pretty much be Adam Lambert’s lil’ bro.
His name is Johan Palm.
When Alienhits featured him I was instantly hooked. So for the past 4 hours I did nothing but watch him on youtube. Fuck this boy is talented. Of course, he did not win but whatever. When he sang Poison by Alice Cooper (see vids below) I instantly wet myself. He also performed songs by The Cure, Coldplay, and Suede. Damn boy! He pretty much sang everything I listened to back when I was a kid. Yeah, I was into rock before. You know, before Yunho came to my life.
He has a new album out now called “My Antidote.” Its opening song is Teenage Battlefield originally by The Sounds. And if you do follow this blog that song was my obsession du jour back in 2003. I was a lowly teen then and that was my anthem. Hearing Johan remake it brings back memories. Little trivia: this song was the theme song for the German teen drama flick Big Girls Don’t Cry (watch traler here). That film puts Gossip Girl to shame and is by far the best teen flick I’ve seen ever. EVER!
I haven’t listened to the rest of the album yet but his debut single Emma Lee is properly amazing. It’s all sorts of brilliant and it makes you dance and shit. It’s currently #1 in Sweden.
How cool was that video? Here are of his best performances in no particular order.
Spoiler alert! I’ve been waiting for this day for months now and thank you to all you bitches who spoiled me the results. My Multiply, Facebook and even my fucking Twitter newsfeed were filled with fucking Kris winning the glorified karaoke contest. I was actually really excited to watch the show tonight (since Philippine TV is hours late).
Now let’s start with Kris. I like him. He’s a genuinely nice guy with actual talent. He can sing some songs and can actually rock the stage. I like him. Although, I would’ve have preferred it Adam and Allison battling it out in the end but Kris is okay for me. At least it’s not the annoying Gokey.
So I kind of figured it out that Kris will win since last week. First, he’s just under the radar all throughout the competition. He wasn’t the best but wasn’t the worst either. Everybody loves the underdog so a lot of people will vote for him. Second, he is cute. Like, incredibly cute that you would just want to hug him so tight till his face turns red. That cute. Lastly, he is talented. The guy can play the guitar and piano. But no matter how cool and talented this cute boy is, he’s not really that unique. He doesn’t have that special oomph and his sound is pretty much like any other singer/songwriters in America. Like, do we really need another Jason Mraz? Sure, he will have a string of hits given the right material but does he has staying power in an industry so cut throat? And he’s already married.
Now, Adam on the other hand is already a winner. He already proved himself to be a force to be reckoned with since day one. He’s unlike anything AI has seen. He’s so unique and uber talented that it creeps me out. And I’m not just saying this because I’m a fan. He sets the bar every week with his outrageous performances and crazy crazy crazy vocals. He can hit those notes that no other singers today can.
I was kind of shocked and appalled that AI overly praised him. Every week, it’s obvious that he’s the producers’ favorite. He gets the most air time. Did you notice that? And the judges already coronated him since day one. Simon even stood up in admiration which is a first for the show. Katy Perry even incrusted his name in her costume while performing last week. Now this is all a bad thing because people might vote against rather than for. Think votefortheworst campaign.
Looking back last night it was clear who the best was talent wise and vocal wise. Kris was so lack luster (in his second song) and totally fucked it up (in his third song). Kris’ last song was so bad and incredibly painful to watch that the judges were so kind enough (even Simon) to give him euphemisms. Adam on the other hand wasn’t also perfect. He was okay on his first song and he also had some bad moments on the third song. But at least he hit the notes unlike Kris.
Okay, I sound totally bitter. Haha. But I’m still happy that Kris won. At least, it’s not Gokey. I’m sure Adam will make it big. He already proved himself to be a rock royalty. He could be the next Steven Tyler or Freddie Mercury. If not, he could always move to Europe where glam rock is the big thing.
I guess, America is still not ready for a gay Idol.
Does that photo above look familiar? Why, isn’t that Shinee’s new fashion concept? But who is that dude? He isn’t Shinee.
Apparently, crazy fans with internet connections are accusing the gay boy band of copying their look from an editorial (see above) lifted from Dazed and Confused’s March 2009 ish. If you ask me, I don’t really give a shit as long as my boys are back with a new album and that they’re still crazy hawt. However, people at SM Entertainment are taking the accusations seriously and released a statement (in Engrish) saying that: “It may seem like plagiarism seems the 2 photoshoots uses similar style masks. But the concept is different. The concept for SHINee’s new minialbum is Romeo while the other photoshoot uses the concept of ‘Transformers’ in them.”
Whatever.
Now, since my boys are fond of them head pieces, I’ve stolen collated some images from random fasheen blogs to give them advice on how to rock the “Romeo” concept Toxicboi style.
(1) A Hello Kitty mask would be perfect since their demographic includes pre pubescent girls, perverted old women and the whole population of Korean pedophiles. (2) This skeletal football helmet would be best for Taemin. This is to protect him from all the pedos who are out to get him. (3) Key should/must/have to wear this Aretha Franklin inspired piece. No explanation needed. (4) Pointed thingy will be for Jonghyun for poking Onew everytime he messes up. (5) The big flowers are for Minho. Because nothing says “flaming charisma” better than having a flower pot for a head.

For the last 3 days I was at Jing’s. I went back to elbi to do some “things” in the university. Anyway, I had so much fun. The best things on my stay were: ukay2x, omelet, debates with Jonathan, seeing Hanie, my new sparkly nails and Jing’s smile. Thanks for letting me crash friend.
