We have seen pictures of these hilariously outspoken tee shirts all over the internet. Pictures of celebrities wearing these tees have been reposted over and over again on Tumblr and other social media sites. We’ve loved these tees for so long and have been desperately trying to find the authentic tee that first came out, but so many imitators have played into the game we’re not entirely sure who was first BUT Break The Labels tees, one of our favorite tee shirt makers, has what looks to be authentic. Check out the link HERE to buy these groovacious tees for just $24 and show your pride this summer! Break The Labels Tees!

Not only do Sunnery James and Ryan Marciano bring energy to the world of EDM-Electronic Dance Music, but they combine it with a love potion of sensuality and groove, conjuring up a revolutionary takeover to every set they spin. They have been compared to Holland’s version of Swedish House Mafia and are quickly becoming contenders of their own.

It’s a powerful time for dance music, everyone seems to know about it now and want a piece of it.

Last year, we posted Milk & Sugar‘s song Let the Sun Shine In as one of our Summer 2012 faves!
Now they’re back with Stay Around! We heard this song last week and instantly fell in love. Only in it’s 2nd week on the European Dance Charts, it’s already moved from 65th to 18th place and is quickly moving to the top. We love this soulful mix that reminds us a little bit of the Chicago House sound of the early 90’s. Check it out and let us know what you think! Needless to say, we’re huge fans of this House producing team!
Wow…we’re not even sure where to start. Well…If you didn’t know that Sharon Needles, winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 4, was releasing an album, guess what…Yep, she released an album, coincidentally the day after the premiere of RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 5. The album, titled PG-13, was released at the same time as the video for her first single This Club is a Haunted House and later be releasing a documentary about the making of the video titled Sharon Needles: Parental Guidance Suggested and will also be releasing a book titled This Book is a Haunted House later this February about the making of the video. (Can you imagine if Nicki Minaj or One Direction released so much fan merch about the making of their videos??? They’d be millionaires…Oh yeah.)
So with all this hype about the release of her album, video and merchandise, how good is the album, really? Pretty damn good. And we were surprised because as much as we love Sharon Needles and are huge fans, we started to wonder if maybe she was shooting for the stars too early. Not at all. She’s one devil of a rock star baby! We had the opportunity to interview Sharon last year, and we were excited to see that her music and her art in the album stayed so true to our interview Sharon Needles Has Balls!
The album consists of 12 songs. The opening song, This Club is a Haunted House, opens with narration by RuPaul, much like his famous Supermodel song. In fact, much of the song, as well as the video, is a parody of other artists that you realize instantly that Sharon Needles has a talent for collaborating pieces of other people’s work and poking fun at who she likes the most. You also see collaboration with Amanda Lepore, Ana Matronic of the Scissor Sisters, Jayne County and even a cameo from her boyfriend Alaska. This Club is a Haunted House is a strong club song and will be remixed a million times.
Interestingly, her pop song, Call Me on the Ouija Board, is probably one of our favorite songs on the album. Imagine One Direction meets Jeffree Star meets teenage Satanic pussy cat cheerleaders…and we mean that as a compliment. Love this song! Can’t wait for this video!
Dead Girls Never Say No is highly reminiscent of 80’s bands like, interestingly named, Dead or Alive. She also say’s “I’ll be a Rosemary’s Baby Tonight” playing off of the horror movie reference of her first track This Club is a Haunted House, where she mentions horror movie direction William Castle. Sharon definitely knows her shit!
The next track, Drink Til I Die, is like 90’s easy listening queen Basia on crack. Kind of like filler for the album.
I Wish I Were Amanda Lepore (Ft. Amanda Lepore) is a pop dedication love song of sorts. Who really cares, right? It’s about Amanda Lepore. Period. The song is ok, but a little weak.
Why Do You Think You Are Nuts is where the true Sharon Needles shines! We love this track! And maybe because it reminds us of small punk rock bands organizing in garages across the Midwest in the late 80’s. Although, this is a band that will make it! If Sharon had released an entire album of this kind of music, she probably wouldn’t get the pop/club attention she’ll get otherwise, but this is her best work on the album.
Disco Ball…I’m gonna take you for the spin of your life? No thanks. Really bad lyrics. Enough said.
Of course we loved Dressed To Kill because it’s like a mature version of that punk rock band mixed with the 80’s sound of Dead or Alive, with a little glam rock glittered around in the background. Perfection.
If Sharon Needles were the villain in a James Bond movie, Let’s All Die would be the title of the film…and the theme song. We loved that she sings, no one gets out alive, a play on words of the title of the bestselling biography about Jim Morrison of The Doors. Are we reading to much into this…probably.
Kai Kai (Ft. Ana Matronic and Alaska) Really??? The song is really not bad, but just a year after Let’s Have a KiKi…with a member from The Scissor Sisters??? Yeah really, because this is Sharon’s humor poking fun at the gay obsession with that damn song. She also pokes fun at it in her video for The Club is a Haunted House when she says the first line of Let’s Have a Kiki. A kai kai is when two drag queens date…or screw. So to anyone who says, “She copied that song“…you’re an idiot!
Everyday is Halloween is the definite depressing ballad of the album. We can already imagine thousands of kids laying in their bedrooms, dressed in drag totally relating to these songs! Every teenager needs an idol, right? Well…adults need idols too!
In Hail Satan (Ft. Jayne County), the real Sharon Needles is back! We are so happy she ended the album with this track, which is so true to some great punk bands, with those combat boots thumping, heisting beer bottles in the air! Great song baby!
And there you have it…the most confusing album since Britney Spears released My Prerogative! And we love them both! Maybe Sharon hasn’t found her exact sound yet, but give her a break, she’s not Leann fucking Rimes for Christ’s sake! Her album is experimental, yet mature, confusing, yet direct, beautiful…yet haunting.
Check out her video below and go buy her album on iTunes.
Do you think it’s a coincidence Willam Belli released the video for his new song Boy is a Bottom, with Detox and Vicky Vox the same day that Detox premiered on RuPaul’s Drag Race??? Hell…No! But that’s because Willam is a genius. In fact, people do not give Willam Belli as much credit as he deserves…that’s a fact! Not only has he been in film and television, but he also has these hilarious songs and videos with gal pals Detox and Vicky Vox. These videos aren’t just parodies…they’re genius! (Remember Chow Down(at Chick-fil-a???)
Although we’re huge Roxxxy Andrews fans, we’re definitely rooting for Detox as well, who seems well on her way as a contender for the crown!
Check out their new video below, Boy is a Bottom, which is a mix of 80’s Wilson Phillips,Alicia Keys’ Girl on Fire and a little bit of En Vogue‘s remake of The Jackson 5’s Who’s Lovin You. We love this video and we love you three gals! By the way, best line, “he’s the ratchedess bottom!” Love-it! Check the video out below!

There’s nothing more un-motivating than a rainy day… especially in the eye of winter. All I feel like doing is staying in bed, curled up under the blankets, watching some 90210 or Vampire Diaries drinking a venti nonfat latte… But I’m on campus all day so this is what I choose to wear:

The concept is simple; a nail wrapped around your wrist to showcase simplicity in its most luxurious way. These timeless pieces of art come in three kinds of bracelets white, rose and yellow gold and in three styles one slim, one thick and one with subtle diamonds around the nail head and point.

Years ago, Nike started a tradition of honoring Black History month by designing a line of shoes and clothing specifically dedicated to Black History Month and those athletes who embody their annual motto. This year, their mantra “Be Bold, Be True” is inspired by Kevin Durant, Serena Williams and Didier Drogba, and their social awareness outside of their respective sports.
We’re absolutely obsessed with the LEBRON X(Featuring the MLK Design) and the Air Force 1 Foamposite High(both shown above).
