Love to hate her or hate to love her? Either way, no one can stop the media from calling Lady Gaga the fashion icon of the century. Her fashion sense is simply out of this world. However, no animals are hurt in the process. Every month, we hear news of her astonishing costume dress up. Let us reminisce some key highlights of her fashion journey from the beginning of the 2010 till now.

January 2010, she wore a hat made entirely from her own hair when she appeared in Las Vegas at the Consumer Electronics Show. Lady Gaga said she will create fashion, technology and photography products. Fashion Police captured her stunning moment at the red carpet dawn in an “iridescen Armani Prive swirling confection, accessorized with sparkling heelless platforms and a giant star.” Absolutely beautiful and elegant for the glamorous Grammy Awards.

February 2010, destination Brit Awards. She was the first to arrive and in great style that seemed to leave an ever-lasting impression upon the crowd. Lady Gaga appeared on the red carpet “sporting a white tiered Francesco Scognamiglio dress with a white pompadour wig that would make even Amy Winehouse’s beehive appear tame.”

March 2010, venue BBC Friday Night with Jonathon Ross. Punchline this round is a hair raising “hair phone”. A successful marketing tactics I would say to promote her single “Telephone”. Definitely another top charter of fashion forums.

Apr 2010, Fashion Yearbook. Vote results for the best and worst costume worn by her. Best ones include “Pretty in Hot Pink”, a bubblegum pink, structured cocktail dress for the 2007 Brit Awards. “Futuristic Disco Queen” glitzy disco dress that she wore at the 2009 Glastonbury Music Festival. “Banana Jacket” that sports a button collar, sunny hue color-blocked with black stripes fabric, fingerless leather gloves, and over-sized, open sleeves. “Lilac Rabbit” sporting a lilac blond bob under a black veil with 2 black lace bunny ears by Maison Michel on the cover of Spanish magazine Neo 2. “Dripping in Pearls” all-white pearl outfit, including her body and face. Worst costumes include “Plain Lady Gaga”, “Blubble Wrap”, “Gaga Little Tea Pot”, “Layer Cake” and “Muppet Slayer”

May 2010, Time magazine included Gaga in its annual Time 100 list of the most influential people in the world

June 2010, revelation of the fashion rundown for her latest single “Alejandro”. Gaga’s steam punk inspired binocular headdress is by Nasir Mazhar and the black Victorian-style cape was custom-made by the late designer Alexander McQueen. She wore underwear by Calvin Klein, black heels by Christian Louboutin and stockings by Agent Provocateur. The red nun outfit is custom made by Atsuko Kudo and its worn with a rosary bead necklace and jewels by Pamela Love. Gaga’s Joan of Arc tunic is a rubber piece custom-made by Jaiden rVa James with platform shoes by Noritaka Tatehana.

July 2010, performed for the Costume Institute ball at the Metropolitan Museum of Art as part of her Monster Ball tour. She looked like “a cross between Catwoman and Gene Simmons” as put by Washington Post. Needless to say, this invited an avalanche of critics who dethroned her from being a fashion “icon”.

August 2010, Staples Center. Lady G wore plastic bubbles on her bod, red lace over her face, 10-inch Alexander McQueen “armadilio” shoes on her feet and an Armani “Space Age” dress constructed of glittery rings that seemed to orbit around her. Turning the singing artist into a human disco ball.

Following the musical revolution in the 1960s, the next decade absorbed different influences and produced a mixture of genres. 70’s music artists represented many different styles. There was something for everyone, with disco, soft rock, progressive rock, punk and new wave, and more. There were many radio friendly artists that got a lot of airplay. The brother / sister duo, The Carpenters appealed to moms and dads, and their kids. Karen Carpenter’s voice was one of the best in pop. Country rock, as it was known, was a popular fusion and The Eagles had the most commercial success with their laid back vocals. In contrast, Heavy Metal was alive and well, particularly in the UK. Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Judas Priest were exciting to watch live and commanded a huge following.

I love everything Ashley Tisdale does from the Suite Life of Zack and Cody to High School Musical. I think she’s the best one of the whole High School Musical cast! And I was just reading an Ashley Tisdale biography that said that she’s going to be in a new movie. I’m so excited!! I hope she stays famous for a really long time, because I never get tired of her. I’m going to go out and buy her CD right now.

My little nephew has a huge crush on Ashley Tisdale. She has a bunch of CD’s on her favorite pop star and TV star. As a matter of fact, she has cool pictures of her all over her room.  She wanted to find an Ashley Tisdale biography. I told her that I knew some websites that had ample information on her favorite star.  Needless to say, my niece was thrilled about this and thanked me for providing information on her favorite icon.

My best friend, Clara has been a great fan of Leona Lewis. She has a bunch of CD’s on her favorite singer. She wanted to know more about her singer, her early upbringing, her family and so forth. I told her that I knew some websites that had ample information on her favorite singer. Needless to say, my friend was thrilled about this and thanked me for providing information on her favorite singer.

My friend, Sheryl has been a great fan of Madonna since her school days. She also used to mimic her voice at school and have won many accolades. She wanted to know more about Madonna and asked me if I knew where to look for.  I told her that I knew some websites that had lots of information on Madonna. There are actually a ton out there, but one I like is called Chickipedia (kinda catchy aint it) It has a ton of info on Madonna. My friend thanked me immensely for helping her out find facts on her favorite icon.

The local PBS station wanted to do a special on Missouri so they loaded up the van and headed towards the state. On the first rest stop once they crossed the border they picked up a Missouri tourist guide and started looking at the attractions. They decided a trip to Branson might be just the thing as it was reasonably long drive and they could film quite a bit of the countryside and show how it changes from north to south. They started filming once they got to Kansas City showcasing the parts of big city seen as one drives along 435. When they exited on the south side they carefully documented how the city flows to the suburbs and how the suburbs flow into the country. Starting out was mostly prairie which slowly changed to more forest. The small towns were chronicled also. The further they went the more trees and hills there were and the views became more spectacular. They actually bypassed Branson showing the changing scenery as they drove up into the Ozark mountains. After having all that footage they returned to Branson and highlighted some of the shows and events there. Rather than a documentary I think they actually filmed a commercial for Missouri.

An Article on inexpensive Brochure Printing

Things have changed a lot in recent years now that printers are cheaper than ever. Because of this, people can do there own color copies and print them from home. More and smaller companies are doing their brochure printing all in house. Some people want full 4 color brochures while others need cheap color brochure printing, pardon me I meant low cost brochure printing. So In order to keep up, Kinko’s and the other large copy businesses have begun to offer cheaper copying and even in color.

Now, I wouldn’t say that they are cheap if you are only printing out one or two. It still can cost as much as a quarter per copy. Nonetheless, if you print in bulk like I do, it is much easier to get cheap color prints than ever before. But I’ve found that promoting events with brochures cost me about 60% less money than it used to. In any case whatever brochure services you use just make sure you compare prices and quality of work.

During the 1960’s and 1970’s, album covers tended toward conceptual protests of previous ideas of good cover design. Abstract psychedelic patterns were popularly tied in to this new concept. The “hippie” times were a period of mind expansion and discovery, characterized by demands for social and political reform. This was expressed through the medium of the album cover, with photographs of war contrasting with portrayals of aristocratic wealth. On a lighter note, “flower children”, nature, and Eastern religion were combined with psychedelic mind-blowing color-infused patterns.

Ever consider how music plays such a large part in our lives? I cannot think of a day when I did not hear music. Whether you have a collection of thousands of CDs or in my case albums or just turn on the radio during your morning commute to work, you are a connoisseur of music.

Do you ever wonder how it gets to you or do you ever wonder who decides what music gets played and what music doesn´t? Do you ever wonder why only certain artists get played or have their music sold in major retail outlets? Has it ever crossed your mind what trends are going to overtake music next? Well the answer to most of these questions lies within the major record labels.

If you love or hate an artist, it´s their record label that you either thank or blame. The major record labels take on new artists and promote the sales of their CDs and/or DVDs. They may also help other companies with tour promotions and other public events.

If you have ever taken a look at your CD and or DVD collection you´ll probably find that nearly 90% of them come from one of the five major record labels in some way shape or form … [more on major record labels]

In a typical multi-level marketing or network marketing arrangement, individuals associate with a parent company as an independent contractor and are compensated based on their sales of products or service, as well as the sales achieved by those they bring into the business.
In a legitimate MLM company, commissions are earned only on sales of the company’s products. No money may be earned from recruiting alone (”sign-up fees”). Some, less legitimate, companies produce revenues primarily by attracting new participants or selling them marketing services, as opposed to selling actual products. One must analyze the compensation plan to determine whether participants are paid from actual sales to customers and not from new-recruit bonuses or business support sales. – source (wikipedia on MLMs).

An article about Nicole Kidman

Nicole Kidman is one of the most highly paid actresses in Hollywood right now, commanding more than $17 million per movie, which is a substantial increase from her first films, that only paid $200,000 each.

Nicole dropped out of high school at the age of sixteen to pursue an acting career full time…
