Beautiful Couple: Eva x Lance

I love seeing these two together. They are the epitome of a "beautiful couple". Eva and her fiancee, Lance Gross were spotted at the launch party for TAG signature series of body sprays at The London Hotel Tuesday night in West Hollywood, California.

They are set to get married in July 2010. Damn, they would have some pretty ass babies.

What A Day

Home from an EXTRA long day. It all started yesterday when I went to work from 7-3pm, then from work, I trailed to Brooklyn in the damn pouring rain to get my nieces from my sister's house. Not 1, not 2, not 3...but 5! Yes, I went and got my 5 nieces because I promised them that they could spend the night at my house. Already tired from working the 8 hours, I just shrugged it off because as much as I was tired, I love being with my babies =]

So, I finally get to my sister's house...drenched, and the girls are ready to go. I relax for about 20 mins, then make my way back home with the girls. We get to the house and of course they're energetic and wanting to eat everything in sight. I had to go back in the pouring rain to get more fuckin groceries. Anyways, we had fun though....I painted their nails and watched movies with them. They ended up going to sleep at like midnight.

Today, I was runnin around like fuckin crazy. I had to go to my job and get my paycheck because I was off. Had to bring all 5 with me...then from there I went to my other sister's house -- whose 9 months pregnant and about to drop any day. By the afternoon, my nieces had officially drove me CRAZY. I give my sister mad props cause I couldnt deal with that shit everyday. But I love them, their my loves. It was just a busy day. I had to take a cab home because I stayed at my sis house to watch the premiere of "The Housewives of Atlanta" second season, which came on at 10pm (I couldnt miss that). I was too tired to bother with the trains.

I'm pooped!!!!

spotlight: photographer lloyd PARKS (43 STUDIOS)

This week's spotlight is on a phenomenal photographer. His name is Lloyd Parks and his work is amazing. Here's a little more about him:

"I AM LLOYD PARKS...DESIGNER, ILLUSTRATOR...PHOTOGRAPHER.







I AM UNORTHODOX IN MANY WAYS.

I do this because art is a natural part of my life. My skills were developed over years of dedication. I cannot stop the work that was set before me. I am not for everyone nor are my skills and talents. It may also seem like I do not care or show indifference, well the indifference part may be true and that's due to my not wanting to taint or expose myself to anything that is not what I am about. I can careless for comments. They do not pay the bills nor do they strengthen my skills.

Do I think I am the best? Not really. I'm just the best at what I do. There are photographers who are close to me and who's work I simply adore. Artists, stylists and MUA's. But I am one who constantly evolves and grows both artistically and mentally. I believe that the application of knowledge is wisdom and through that I learn to apply what I know to my life and profession.

THIS ISN'T A HOBBY...A JOKE...A PASTIME OR ANY SUCH THING. THIS THING OF MINE IS A PROFESSION AND PROFESSIONALS HAVE SKILL LEVELS. IT IS HONED BY CONSTANT LEARNING, EVOLVING, TRIAL AND ERROR, LEARNING FROM YOUR MISTAKES AND OTHERS AND LISTENING TO THOSE GREATER THAN YOURSELF. A GOOD STUDENT WILL LISTEN, RETAIN, STUDY, PRACTICE AND EXECUTE!

EVEN MY DETRACTORS AND CRITICS MAY HAVE SOME SEMBLANCE OF TRUTH IN THEIR WORDS...BUT THE UNDENIABLE PROOF OF MY WORDS ARE IN THE FORM OF MY WORK.

SO TO ALL ASPIRING ARTISTS -- FROM MUSIC TO ART, PHOTOGRAPHY AND MORE...

ALL I CAN SAY TO YOU IS THIS, EVERYTHING IS A TOOL. EVERYTHING YOU CAN LEARN AND ACHIEVE. EVERYTHING THAT SOMEONE SAYS OR DOES CAN BE GRAFTED INTO YOUR CREATIVITY. I WIELD PHOTOSHOP LIKE THORS HAMMER, YET I CAN PAINT AND DRAW AS WELL AS DESIGN BY FREEHAND. I AM THE PHOTOGRAPHER. I AM DUE TO JUST WHAT I SAID AT THE OPENING. I USE ANYONE, ANYTHING. CREATIVITY DOESN'T HAVE A CLASSROOM AND DEDICATION AND PERSEVERANCE HAS NO LIMITS BUT WHAT YOU PLACE ON IT. I AM SHOCKED AT MANY WHO PROFESS AND WANT TO BE SOMETHING, BUT EVERY TOOL AND LESSON AT THEIR DISPOSAL ISN'T STUDIED USED OR LOOKED UPON AS VALUE.

I want to thank you for the time and exposure. I love what’s happening over here baby. You guys keep a watch for more on Lloyd Parks. Gorgeous, the magazine soon to go online by September 1st.”

Why So Shocked?

Okay, so the word around the RUMORMILL is that Kim K and Reggie split. Yea, they were cute together and were an item for about 2 years, but did you actually think he would WIFE her or something?

What's the hoopla about??

There's A Guy....

....that I love sooo much. Feels good to have someone special in your corner. My babez and I have been together for almost 6 years -- 6 looooong years! He just left my house and already I miss him like fuckin crazy. I'd be lyin if I said EVERYTHING has been peachy between us, but good times and bad, he's ALWAYS been there for me.

I kept stalling today cuz I didnt want him to leave, but he had things to do. I just feel like the luckiest woman alive.

Thanks babe!! Xoxo

...by yours truly.

Crazy Bitch

I was browsing on youtube.com and came across this video. Its from a little over a year ago. Shorty must have been on that LETHAL shit to be actin like this...on a TRAIN no less. She got hers tho, nigga straight yanked her hair. BWAHAHAHAHAHA.

These Shoes Are Hot!

Saw these shoes at karmaloop.com....these are BADD! I love the brown color and animal print. I visit karmaloop.com often, but these are one of the FEW shoes that has caught my eye. They have my size, price aint bad...gotta ORDER ASAP!

Pics From Last Night

My homegurls and I went to club Soiree last night, as I stated in my blog yesterday. Here are a few pics...I'll post some more tomorrow! The club was aight, the DJ could have been better but it was fun chillin with the girls.

Party Time

So....my gurls and I are gonna hang out tonight at the club. It's been a while since I shook my ass. I use to promote parties, but stopped a few months ago. Anyway,we all work together and have become very kool with each other. We planned on all goin out since last month but work schedules and other miscellaneous shit got in the way. I was up fuckin early as hell tryna find something to wear -- yea I was LATE wit it, but so what! I have my certain places that I go when I shop, so I knew it wouldnt be hard finding the outfit...but damn was it hard finding some SHOES.

I'm a 100% picky shoe shopper..shit, shoes MAKE the outfit. So I always make sure the shoes are up to par lol. I fucked up in the game tho, cause I bought the dress first smh. So I'm searching and searching for shoes to match my yellow and gold dress, and finally after 3 stores...I find THEM!!! Cute shit!!

I'll most likely post some pics of tonight, tomorrow!! XOXO

New Pic

Peep my new pic...jazzied it up a lil. =]

Spotted: Free From 106 & Park

Former 106 & Park host, Free, was spotted attended the launch of she-blogs.com at Saks Fifth Avenue in NYC on Thursday night. She has definitely gained some weight...and she needs a stylist BADDD.





But I still love me some Free...listen to her all the time on Power 105.1 with ED Lover in the mornings.

Must Have: A Morir By Kerin Rose Sunglasses

I'm soooo feeling the chain glasses. Rihanna rocked the hell outta these A Morir by Kerin Rose shades. The price retails for around $250. Most people WON'T dish out that much on some damn glasses. So they have these cute look alike shades available at Odds & Even NYC, which retail for $20:

Ok Soooooo

...this twit done chopped her locks off. When I saw this pic, I thought to myself that she must be the newest member of the "cut it off" crew. What's with these celebs nowadays with the slicing and dicing?

Solange has always been one to do her OWN thing, yes indeed, but her choices sometimes make me wonder about her. I think she tries a little TOO hard to not just be "the other knowles sister".

Can blame her her wanting her own identity from her big mega-star sister, BUT DAMN!!!!

Twitter Addict Much?

I think I'm addicted! I find myself tweeting like a crackhead needs drugs. I thought it was so wack in the beginning, but 730 followers later, shit is pretty aight. On right now, as I type this.

Dont front, yall get ur tweet on too! Make sure you follow me twitter.com/harlemmissez.

I Don't Understand....

...what makes this hoe think she is CAPABLE of coming out with a book entitled "The Vixen Manual". Her book is about ways to seduce and KEEP your man. Bitch, you aint nuthin but a hip hop jumpoff. Aint not ONE of them dudes you fucked WIFE you, so you have plenty damn nerve. Oh my bad, I think Eddie from "Family Matters" did (rolls eyes)...but anyway, this chick blows mine.

She is SEMI-famous for doin nuthin but shakin and fuckin. She's been with just about EVERYONE: Allen Iverson, Ray-J, Bobby Brown, Shaq, Method Man, Ja Rule, Russell Simmons, Diddy, Common...and the fuckin list goes on and on.

This HOE!!

More Fuckery

So, world....
another round of these damn fools is rapidly approaching!

Did you tune into the first season? Cant front, I did...its entertainment! But overall, "reality" television is outta this fuckin world with the bullshit.

Shit, give me MY own...where do I sign up? Since, its soooo easy!!

Blah

Sittin' here listening to songs from datpiff.com, got Livin Single on the television. Stomach full from the chicken sandwich I just fuckin ate...feeling like a fat cow.

This site (datpiff.com) is on point, found out about it via twitter. It's a mixtape site..got all the hottest mixtapes up there. Anyways, bout to put some more music on the iPizzle.

Xoxo!

Kelis Gives Birth

Yesterday, July 21, singer Kelis gave birth to her baby boy. Ex-hubby rapper Nas was there (barely), BUT it is reported that there was some drama at the hospital.

According to Allhiphop.com, "Nas was not allowed to witness the event". But he did rush to the hospital for the birth.

She Was Done

Starting today, every Wednesday, I will post crazy, outrageous videos or news that is just fuckin ridiculous. This week, I caught this video on youtube....chick was higher than a fuckin kite. Peep the video below!!

Love/Hate Relationship

So, the phone I'm rockin with now is the white-edition G1 and have been for about 4 months. The phone itself is good...the market on it -- LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!! I also love the 3G internet and the camera is kool too, but the BATTERY fuckin SUCKZ! I usually charge my battery all night, so you would think I would have enough damn juice to last me the whole day...hell nah. The battery goes dead mid-day and the shit is tickin me OFF.

Granted all phones die at one point in time, but you would think with a phone that has as many apps and good shit that it does, the battery would be on point. I'm gonna keep rockin wit it tho for now, just gotta remember to keep the CHARGER at all times.

Ms. Amber Rose

I was browsing the net and came across this chick, Amber Rose...yet AGAIN! She is the girlfriend of Kanye West (i'm sure you all know that). Anyways, I see that a LOT of people hate on this chick because they feel she's "important" for no fuckin reason.

Personally, I think she's doin her thing. She's got a successful ass nigga on her arm, she's got style for days, she's cute with a nice body AND she rocks that baldie better than anybody I know. Dont hate on her because she's doin her.

Grown Ass Woman

It makes me LOL when I see these little ass girls out here that SWEAR they grown n shit. Walkin around like they KNOW every damn thing cuz they wear makeup or got some ass and titties. No, little GIRL, you are NOT grown.

Let me see a fuckin bill wit YOUR name on it. Or let me ask you a question about what an ADULT really is and let me see what you say. Being GROWN is not even just about turning 18 -- its about doin for yaself and not having to rely on MOMMY and DADDY to do every damn thing for you. How you call yaself GROWN but aint never have a damn job before or dont even know how to make up your OWN mind?? No little sweetie, you are not GROWN.

I wish a lot of times that I could be a kid again - carefree! But no I am A GROWN ASS WOMAN!!!

Tattoo Time

It's time for another tattoo. I have 4 already but that aint enuff. I'm definitely not ADDICTED or anything, but I been thinkin HARD body about gettin another one -- maybe on my lower back or my right arm. I want something BIG cuz 3/4 of my tats are kinda small.

Well see, but I'm thinkin about gettin it this weekend!!!

Got It Twisted

It's no fuckin secret that MANY women wear weaves. Some get them sewn in, some get them glued in (always a big NO-NO), and some are rockin the NEWEST trend, lace front wigs. I personally love lace fronts because of the ILLUSION of a natural hair line BUT some women got it straight TWISTED! Peep these atrocious examples:







...ladies DON'T get caught out there like this! I should not be able to see where you glued that bitch in.

My Fave Movies

Everybody loves a good ass movie! The DVD collection in my house in krazzzy. Comedies, Drama, Romance...got em ALL. I aint into the Sci-Fi and movies like Transformers, nah AINT my shit!

Here are a few of my absolute FAVES (in no particular order)....

1. POETIC JUSTICE

2. TRAINING DAY

3. LOVE AND BASKETBALL

4. DIARY OF A MAD BLACK WOMAN

5. MENACE II SOCIETY


What's your fave?

I Apologize

More than 5 months after the infamous assualt case between Chris Brown and Rihanna, the star offers an apology for his irratic behavior.

In the video, he states that he “spent a lot time soul searching, and trying to understand what happened and why”. Peep the full video below.

Long Or Short?

Speaking of hair, it's time for me to get my hair done!

A lot of people tell me they like my hair SHORT...


but I like it LONG too...


...what do YOU think??

Ciara's New Cut

Singer Ciara debuted her new hair style via her twitter yesterday. She looks very nice in the PICTURE but I've seen other pics of the cut and I'm not 100% feelin it...

...maybe it has to GROW on me, i guess!

Ok Soooo...

...i log into my MYSPACE page and find yet ANOTHER message from some loser who I denied. Why is this fool goin so hard? I wish I knew. Who the hell said i was OBLIGATED to accept everyone?

Only no-life having assholes would go so HARD....

and he/she is CLEARLY one!

It's Sad....

...a lot of people think they have to measure up to someone ELSE's standards in order to feel complete. Many people are not satisfied with themselves and look for the acceptance of others. Although it is something I ONCE related to, it's important to realize the importance of SELF-love and acceptance. Who the hell is the next person that you feel you have to accomodate them? Til the end of time, there's ALWAYS gonna be somebody to hate on you or make you feel inadequate. Know who you are and that you are..

FABULOUS!!!

Beyonce Lends A Helping Hand

Supertar Beyonce showed some support at the Show Your Helping Hand Campaign Press Conference in Chicago, IL. She came to feed the hungry and also be close with her fans. She is also teaming up with General Mills to help deliver more than 3.5 million meals to food banks around the country. She says:

"Giving back is something I was taught at an early age. I truly believe God blesses us to bless other people."

I loved her outfit too, btw! Curvy and classy!!

Apology Not Accepted

Rapper Tony Yayo talks about G-Unit not accepting The Game's apology. He states that he blames Game for leaving the crew. Take a look:

Janet x Jermaine In Splitsville?

After seven years of dating, friends of music producer Jermaine Dupri are telling Us Weekly that the relationship between him and Janet Jackson has quietly ended. The sources reveal, “They have been moving in different directions for a while.”

Janet is notoriously shy when it comes to being out in public, while Jermaine “likes to be out there, mingling with everybody.” In addition, a mutual friend dishes that their careers and personal lives were too intermingled, “Janet felt their lives were too crossed and they should have kept things sepa­rate.”

Rih x Her New 'Do

Fashionista Rihanna was seen at the Italian eatery Da Silvano in New York rockin a new hairdo and I must say I like it. It seems like the shaved head 'do is the NEW trend. First Cassie, then LaLa Vazquez, but I think it suits Rihanna the best. Go head gurl!!

Jojo: "Yea I Like To Smoke Weed"

The son of Run DMC’s Reverend Run has reached a plea agreement. Joseph Simmons Jr. plead guilty in a New York courtroom to one count of disorderly conduct on Thursday. The plea comes after the 19-year-old was arrested in May for possession of marijuana. As part of the plea, Simmons’ possession charge was dropped and he will have to serve one day of community service. Joseph is now working on a new album that should be out the first of the year. MTV’s hit-reality series “Run’s House” wrapped up its sixth season on Monday.
