Treyliciousness....
So, I have one question for the day... When did Trey Songz become the finest dude in the industry? Obviously, after the cutting of those horrid braids but, now there is no one even coming CLOSE in comparison to him. That voice, those looks, that guy. Take a few moments to simply admire all of his Treyliciousness....

The Hate, The Love & All the Above
In any other circumstance, a collabo by the likes of Sean Garrett, newly bald Mario & grammatically incorrect Gucci Mane, would be completely unacceptable. For some reason however, this atrocity on paper actually, dare I say... works. Hmm.
2. The Television Show: Real World: Cancun
Though this has the typical reality show setup (built up & let down drama), I actually like it. Maybe its Jonna's creepy eyes, maybe Jasmine's drunken spazz, maybe even Ayiia's self mutilation. Idk. But, this show has got me going (Day26 voice).... ok won't be repeating that again.
3. The Person: Ryan Reynolds
Cute. Funny. Slightly douchtastic swag. I mean does it get any better?! Never even NOTICED his screw-ability until "The Proposal" SWOON. And looking back, can't BELIEVE I was so neglectful to his awesomeness in a fat suit in "Just Friends". Bottom line, he rocks socks and ScarJo is simply not worthy.
4. The Band: Dirty Money
Dirty Money is literally 1/3 washed up rapper/mogul, 1/3 ex-DK/mildly talented singer & 1/3 Estelle's twin that we've never heard of. But, their music is so simply boss. The only precursors to their album can be heard on MTV's "Making His Band". Definitely worth the hour of viewership, just to hear some snippets.
5. The Episode: "Football Player" from The Show: "MADE"
Aside from the half naked gorgeousness of (football player to be) Christian's teammates, the utter awesomeness of this scrawny geek makes this episode of MADE timeless. Even better, he (after a year of public school hell) transferred back to private school by the end of the episode and never actually made it into being a football player. Classic.
6. The Item: LG Vu
Music, tv, notepad, camera.... What can I say? It is my lifeline... oh and did I mention phone? Yeah that too...
7. The Movie: The Orphan
Ok, so this movie is officially the creepiest shit I've ever seen in life! I haven't seen a suspense movie this good in years so I HAD to "give it up to the ghost"..... literally :/
8. The Website: www.overheardinnewyork.com
New Yorkers are dicks! And this websites is filled with tons of their daily dickish anecdotes heard throughout the city in the most random places (i.e. the subway, street corners, etc.) It totally makes me admire their assholic ways.
9. The Hate: Bow Wow
10. The Love: Reality Television
Video Newness: "So Good" Day26

Just A Lil Sumin' Sumin' To Pass The Time
If you're anything like me you get bored at your job (or internship) fairly easily. The constant repetitive format, of meetings, phone calls & spreadsheets can soon become extremely dull. So once you're done sneaking behind your bosses back to fulfill your Twitter/Facebook duties, here's four of my favorite blogs to pass the time.
1) Overheard In NY (overheardinnewyork.com)- I don't live there (YET!) but, I am a COMPLETE NYC head! I love everything about the city & reading these daily anecdotes about random sayings heard all around town makes, living there seem all the more desirable.
2) Ed's Intern Diaries (edinterndiaries.blogspot.com)- Ok, so I may be a little partial to this because I'm a journalism major and its kind of in my field but, sometimes hearing about the daily traumas & triumphs of other working folks is are just what you need to make it though your day. This blog is no exception. It chronicles the lives of 4 magazine interns as the go through their summer internship. Interesting stuff to say the least.
3) College Stories (collegestories.com)- As most people, I have personally experienced college hell more than once. Dorm room drama, all nighters, class stress, finals fury, the works! But, collegestories.com is a site filled with some of the craziest (and most relatible) college stories you've ever heard. If it doesn't make you feel better at your own college situation, its sure to at least make you laugh at someone elses...
4) This Is Why You're Fat (thisiswhyyourefat.com)- This one is pretty self explanatory. It's a blog completely FILLED with pics & descriptions of the weirdest & most calorie packed foods you can imagine (ever heard of a cap'n crunch donut? yeah didn't think so). So this is def the one to log onto when you need a push to work out. I'm about to to get on the Wii Fit just writing about it.
So, hopefully these sites will make that 8 hour shift go by a little faster.
Toodles.

You Know Its A Media Recession When...
...One of the nation's (possibly world's) most popular women's magazines (Glamour) has to completely purge itself of all its receptionists just to keep the magazine a float. Yes, you heard correctly. As of last week, infamous media company Conde Nast declared that they would be laying off ALL of their receptionists, therefore leaving the editorial staff to be responsible for directing calls & all other traffic that usually falls under the secretarial staff duties. The dismissal included Glamour's Betty Wales, who'd served as a receptionist for the company for 20+ years. The release of the receptionists also comes weeks after, Conde Nast (who has been grasping for straws in this recession for months) canceled their newspaper subscriptions & cut back on editoral content for most of their mags in an effort to save money. And just when they believed it couldn't get worse..... It did.

NY Daily News CLAIMS Two L.I. Girls Are Often Mistaken For First Daughters.... :/
R.I.P Frank McCourt
Pulitzer Prize winning "Angela's Ashes" is probably one of the most amazing books in the world. It tells the story of an impoverished Irish family struggling to survive disease, lack of funds and social shunning to gain a better life. The story, which was an autobiography & later turned into a film, was written by Frank McCourt who unfortunaely passed this weekend. If you haven't read the book or seen the movie I highly recommend you do. Two of the most profound pieces I've ever encountered. Watch the trailer below:

Waste Of Paper: The Last Issue of VIBE Magazine featuring Christina Mili-Blonde & The Dream
Drake Responds to Pedophilic BET Awards Performance & Video Newness: Drake "Best I Ever Had"
Complex: Damn, that’s horrible. At the BET Awards this past Sunday, everyone was shocked to see you sitting on a stool. Did you ever think to yourself, Maybe I shouldn’t perform?
Drake: That, actually—to be honest—was a terrible idea that I’ll never do to myself again. [Laughs] But I was being pressed from different areas to perform, and I think what really happened at the BET Awards is with the passing of Mike, the climate really changed, as far as the award show goes. I don’t think it called for us to perform “Every Girl” and “Always Strapped,” and I think it was an award show filled with tributes and music and these genuine heartfelt speeches. And to sort of climax out of a very tongue-in-cheek point, and then people misconstruing Wayne’s daughters and her friends coming out on stage…
Complex: Yeah, it really was an awkward moment.
Drake: Yeah, it was just timed very poorly and it definitely wasn’t planned like that, but with that being said, it is what is. I believe in Wayne and myself and it’s nothing we can’t bounce back from. To anyone who was offended, my personal apologies, it wasn’t intended to offend anybody.
Complex: Watching it at home, the BET Awards seemed to be a mess. Did it seem that way in person?
Drake: Well, I can only speak for my portion of it. I had asked for something very specific for my performance and none of those were met, as far as production value, so…
Complex: That’s BET for you…
Drake: I understood my situation, as far as sitting in one place, and figured there was a way to make it interesting. But when I looked around and noticed that none of that was going on [laughs], I kind of just realized that it was going to be a loss for me. But at the end of the day, it is what it is.
Poor Drake :-( ... The saddest thing is however, I don't really think it's his place to have to respond to anything. If anyone should be responding it should be Wayne (or maybe his babymama, Toya whose probably to wrapped up in her own 15 mins of "reality" show fame.) I know it'll be a snowy day in hell before that happens... and the cycle continue.... SMDH..... And OFF of my Al Sharpton moment is the video newness of Drake's "Best I Ever Had" & here it is:
