The wrongly maligned year of Christina Aguilera

Poor Christina Aguilera.

2010 was supposed to be her star, comeback year after disappearing for more than 4 years.  She had been hailed as having one of the best voices in pop music, and she was also one of the sexiest for a while.  For months there had been buzz about the release of “Bionic”–it had been hyped for months due to the amount of collaborators Aguilera would be working with and because it would be her return to the music scene.   With a list of producers like M.I.A., Peaches, Sia, and Nicki Minaj, it seemed like Aguilera would at least have an interesting album to return with.

Then “Not Myself Tonight” was released.

Dita Von Teese is the Star of Cointreauus’s First Webisode

Good morning!

I pretty much knew it was going to be a wonderful day today when I got my annual monthly Dita von Teese newsletter which featured a link to watch a short film (or commercial…) Dita did for Cointreauus.  In the “webisode” Dita plays Miss Margarita and basically looks sexy and delicious the entire episode while only saying a few things.

It’s glamorous, sexy and very short.  And the video can be found after the jump.  Enjoy! Continue reading

This Is Why Dita Von Teese Rocks

FIRST OF ALL, I made it through my first critique of the semester yesterday in my hardest class and recieved comments about the piece like “sophisticated” and “well-advanced”–huzzah!! My lack of blogging has been due to me researching my butt off for the project (“Clothes Make Up Who You Are”) and then actually doing the project.  But I’m back today with some fun things for all of you who read this blog!

The reason I wanted to do this is because while researching for this project because I’m going into the topic of vanity, I’ve really grown to love and respect Dita Von Teese more I had ever thought was possible (which is a lot since I’ve been a fan since 2007), and I thought I would share her awesome-ness for all of you.  After the cut you will find a new interview with Suicide Girls where she discusses how she creates her shows and the research she does to make them authentic and memorable, and above you’ll find one of my new favorite interviews of hers that she did while promoting her book Burlesque and the Art of the Teese.

Personally, I think what Dita does is an art form and it’s what separates her from people like Jenna Jameson who do it just because they like sex.  If you don’t believe me read on for a pretty inspirational interview from the burlesque performer…. Continue reading

Dita Von Teese Gets Beautiful

Burlesque star Dita Von Teese was spotted leaving a West Hollywood nail salon Wednesday looking absolutely gorgeous.  (Really, she is one of the loveliest women in Hollywood.)  Wearing a white tank, with floral print dress and green heels, Dita made her way to her car amidst the paparazzi.

Dita happens to be dating a new guy, French actor and aristocrat, Count Louie-Marie Castelabajac and was seen carrying a gold Eiffel Tower charm on with her keys. 

More pictures after the cut….
