Ko gero šiai mados ikonai Londono pasirodė per maža ir madas diktuoti ji renkasi kitur.

Anot anoniminio šaltinio “Kate pranešė savo agentūros savininkams, kad nori būti pačioje mados šerdyje. Ji dievina Paryžių ir kas kart apsistoja Ritz. Po 34 metų Londone, Kate jaučia, kad jai reikia pertraukos – ir negali sulaukti kada galės panirti į Paryžietišką gyvenimą.”

Kate ketina pirkti 40 milijonų dolerių kainuojančius apartamentus, kurių langai atsiveria tiesiai į Eifelio bokštą. Tačiau Kate Londone paliks ne tik savo namus. Septynmetė dukra Lila keiauja kartu, tačiau mylimasis Jamie Hince lieka Londone. Kate sakosi nepaliksianti savo namų Londone. Ji nenorinti prarasti šaknų, o – palaikyti ryšius su artimaisiais.

Kad ir kaip ji bepasielgtų, manau Londono žmonės, Londono mada jai liks artimesnė nei Paryžiaus. Netikiu, kad Paryžiuje yra tikroji mados širdis. Šį titulą išsyk skirčiau Milanui. Na, o poto Niujorkui. Išvis tokią nuomonę susidariau po MCM kanalo, kuriame pastoviai rodomi neskoningi prancūzų r’n'b dainų klipai su švepluojančiom 50 centų atmainom. Ten dabar apsmukusių kelnių, ratlankių auskarų ir kedų bumas!
Todėl, Kate neiškeisk Londono į Paryžių.

After doing a small amount of research into fashion photography, I found a really useful site which just so happens to be a fellow wordpress blog. I thought it would be of use to anyone who would like to know a little bit more about fashion photography in general, the history and different artists involved over time.

I came across this blog by chance, I was just looking to find out a little more information about Alison Mosshart, and Google linked me to this blog. I must say I do love the post about Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince, I just love the photographs. The style of them are just full of character, they use great colour, and brilliant tone. They used a Holga while they were on the road to get some of the most charismatic photographs.

I hope somebody finds this useful

Sidste uge var der utrolig meget White på programmet i København. Først var der White Sensation arrangementet i Parken (dog ikke noget musik, som har fanget min interesse) og byen blev af samme grund invaderet af mennesker klædt i hvidt.

I slutningen af uge blev det så tid til White inden for rockmusikken – og endda flere af slagsen.

Damp-barnet og den evigt produktive Jack White kom til byen torsdag først og fremmest for at give koncert med sideprojektet The Dead Weather.

Men også for at præsentere dokumentarfilmen Under Great White Northern Lights om White Stripes turnéen i Canada i 2007.

Jeg havde ikke selv billet til filmen, som blev vist i Grand, men jeg har ladet mig fortælle, at det var en ok god film.

Til gengæld havde jeg billet til koncerten i Store Vega, som viste sig at være årets koncertoplevelse – for mig i hvert fald. Koncerten har desværre fået halv lunkne anmeldelser, og jeg er slet slet ikke enig i deres oplevelser af koncerten.

Gazellen og friends fik en virkelig god plads i tredje række foran scenen og havde derfor perfekt udsyn til hele showet. Vi fik alt med – Alison Mossharts spytten på scenen, Dean Fertitas sveddråber under hans intro til Will There Be Enough Water og ikke mindst Mossharts nærmest dræber-agtig panterøjne, som hun rettede mod de mandelig publikummer i forreste række.

Musikken og lyden var stor og så beskidt og skramlet, som man overhovedet kan forestille sig.  De tre mandelige bandmedlemmer er alle sindssygt gode musikere, og Alison Mosshart gjorde det virkelig godt som frontfigur trods det, at hun var uden sin sædvanlige makker Jamie Hince (The Kills). Hun formåede selv at skabe den seksuelle spænding på scenen, som er så karakterisk for The Kills.

Hun hoppede op på forstærkere, vred sig som en slange og havde meget øjenkontakt med publikum. Noget af kritikken har gået på, at hun ikke har en stærk vokal.

Det her er rock, og det er ikke meningen, at hun skal have en fløjsblød stemme á la Lykke Li. Mossharts stemme passer super godt til den her slags musik.

Derudover mener kritikerne, at balancen i bandet var skæv, i det at White selv havde en lidt tilbagetrukket rolle bag trommerne, og når han ved et par af numrene kom frem foran på scenen, så gik publikum amok. Men det er noget fis at sige! At White sad bag trommerne gjorde det bare mere interessant, og hele bandet kom på den måde til sin ret, og jeg synes netop derfor, at balancen var god, og som den skulle være.

Koncerten med The Dead Weather var alt andet end sløset, rodet og middelmådig, som Ekstrabladets anmelder har karakteriseret den. Og det pisser mig af, at en anmelder tydeligvis har en  så forudindfattet mening, at han intet positivt kan sige om koncerten.

Koncerten i Store Vega torsdag aften var så rå, voldsom og fantastisk, at det tog pusten fra mig allerede efter de to første numre. Og som Gaffas anmelder skriver, så var det langt fra “same shit, different city” – man følte, at bandet spillede deres musik live for allerførste gang. De gav den så meget gas, at jeg stadig kan få gåsehud ved bare at tænke på det.

Højdepunkter for mig var b-side nummeret You Just Can’t Win samt White og Mossharts elektriske udgave af Will There Be Enough Water, hvor den seksuelle spænding mellem dem toppede og gav gazellen flashback med glimt af en The Kills  koncert i Lille Vega.

Gaffas anmeldelse: http://gaffa.dk/anmeldelse/35532

Fredagens og ugens sidste “White” koncert bestod af endnu et hypet band, nemlig det engelske White Lies.

Men jeg vil undlade at sige så meget om den koncert, da jeg fik placeret mig et virkelig, virkelig dårligt sted, og det ødelagde stort set min koncertoplevelse.

Og jeg ved, at bandet gav mere end, hvad de nogensinde har givet før (i hvert fald hvad jeg har oplevet de foregående gange), så mine dårlige oplevelser med fulde, fede og virkelig ildelugtende mænd, der blev ved med at skrige ‘ooui ooui’, skal ikke med her.

Koncerten blev filmet og kan – forhåbentlig snart – ses på TDC play Live http://www.vega-tdc-player.dk/index.jsp.

Je vous ferai pas l’affront de présenter The Kills (bon si y a vraiment besoin Wikipédia est ton ami comme d’hab). Juste pour dire au passage que Jamie Hince, qui semble s’être laissé pousser le chapeau en se faisant Kate Mossiser à la suite de Doherty, et Alison Mosshart bossent ensemble sur une nouvelle galette malgré la suractivité de la dame et son side-project avec The Dead Weather qui roule du feu de dieu.

Le Goodnight Bad Morning qui suit est tiré d’une session filmée pour un site juste énorme : From The Basement (c’est par ici msieur-dames). En plus du combo americano-british, la crème du rock y défile pour un, deux, trois morceaux… voire un set de 20 minutes pour The Dead Weather, et on y trouve en vrac et sans exhaustivité (je ne cite que ceux que j’ai déjà regardés) : The Raconteurs, The White Stripes, Sonic Youth, The Fall, Sparks, Seasick Steve, PJ Harvey, Jarvis Cocker, Beck, Albert Hammond Jr ou encore Iggy. C’est vous dire le bonheur…

Nächste Woche gehts ab nach Berlin, yay, und auf die oben genannten Herren und natüüüüüüürlich auch und vor allem auf die Arctic Monkeys freue ich mich seeehr.

Vorher entdeckte ich das hier:

Aha! Wen sehen wir denn da auf dem Bild unten links?!
Das ist doch der allseits bekannte Herr Jamie Hince, den ich persönlich mehr als genial finde.
Das macht diese kleine “Collage” doch noch nen Tick besser.

Kate and Pete
i know this is soooo 2007.. but i obviously can’t get over it.

versus Kate and Jamie
they look good together too, but i’m really a sucker for Pete Doherty

Garibay’s Art
i am also currently addicted to Emmanuel Garibay’s art and plan to own one someday. I am currently doing a lot of research about artists and galleries and his art is consigned
e v e r y w h e r e.

The couple I look up to,
Rachel Zoe and Rodger.
I admire how they worked their way up the ladder.

BLACK
It might be because i am mourning, but I somehow managed to love wearing black lately.
sometimes too much actually

SAVING and CARDING

Alison Mosshart, also known as VV is the lead vocalist of the Kills alongside Jamie Hince (who is dating Kate Moss) and a member of the band The Dead Weather alongside Jack White, Jack Lawrence and Dean Fertita. Apart from being a tremendously talented musician, Mosshart has a clothing style all her own. With heavy dark bangs and a deep smoker’s voice, Mosshart appears to be the typical rock and roller.  However, her magazine interviews beg to differ. In an interview with Interview Magazine, she even claims that she watches Gossip Girl!! Now what kind of rock and roller are we talking about here? Apart from the all-American sweetheart she appears to be in person, Mosshart masters the art of a rock and roll performance mostly because of her kick-ass style choices. She claims her style/musical influences come from bands she admired while she was young such as The Pixies, Sonic Youth, the Velvet Underground, and The Rolling Stones…It’s also interesting to note that Mosshart learned to play the guitar after joining the Kills. She started off her love of music by singing! (like someone I know…)

Her favorite things: leopard blouses on top of old band t-shirts, jeans, gold boots by Hedi Slimane (Dior Homme)

Here are some of her best looks:

На Кейт не й омръзна да се захваща с талантливи британци, нито мераците й за музикалния бизнес по някакъв начин са намалели. След като настоящето й гадже е Jamie Hince, няма и причина за това. Според The Sun супермоделът имал силно желание да издаде нова музика, а Хинс бил изкушен да каже “да”. Анонимен източник пропял за вестника, че “Той така е свикнал да я чува да пее у дома и на караоке, че е съгласен да даде шанс на цялата работа. Тя не се опитва да пази в тайна, че иска да запише още неща.”
Говрител от PRS For Music обявява, че “Кейт Мос е сътрудничила в писането на някои песни с Пит Доърти (бивше гадже) и ще може да прибере част от овациите за това. И Пит и Джейми са членове. Ще сме щастливи да приемем и Кейт.”

Ние вече сме чували Кейт през 2002 в песента на Primal Scream – Some Velvet Morning, които са й приятели. Тя взе участие и в клипа, в който е във феерична полупрозрачна рокличка (вече съм доста сигурна, че повечето от вас ще го гледат). След това се появи през 2007 в албума на Babyshambles – Shotters Nation, като сътрудница в написването на няколко песни, докато още беше обвързана с Доърти.

Явно амбициите на манекенката са всеобхватни, след като вече се е наложила като икона на модния подиум и постигна завиден успех и като дизайнер.
Успех, Кейт! Стискам ти палци, макар че явно и без друго се справяш отлично.

Eles são um duo muito underground que começaram a carreira depois de muitas bandas até se encontrarem e trocarem cartas até decidirem se conhecer de verdade e formar a banda The Kills – é a dupla formada por VV (Alison Mosshart) e por Hotel (Jamie Hince). Após diversos obstáculos como a distância, por exemplo… Eles logo começaram a tocar juntos e lançaram o primeiro álbum em 2oo3 confirmando o que todas as revistas especialistas no assunto apontavam: Que o som do The Kills é forte, intenso, totalmente cru – estilo o primeiro cd dos The White Stripes – e ao mesmo tempo bem sexy.

Seu último trabalho foi o mais aclamado e muitas vezes indicado como melhor cd do ano de 2oo8, Midnight Boom que aqui está para download Download

1 – U.R.A Fever

…and I sincerely mean that in the nicest possible sense!

I’m just mesmerised by Kate and I think the shots of her more recently this year are quite probably the best I’ve ever seen. Kate is looking absolutely beautiful, feminine, fuller and happier than ever!

So I thought I’d share with you these beautiful shots of Kate in the newest edition of V Magazine; all shots photographed by Iain McKell and styled by the wonderful Karen Langley.

I love how Kate just looks free as a bird and just so comfortable in the beautiful countryside. I was thinking today how nice it is to have that chill in the air, and the sun low at 7pm on my bicycle ride home. I’m sure I’ll have people disagree, but I’m really looking forward to Autumn

I also thought I’d slip in a few shots I took at London Fashion Week Feb 2008…these two lovely ladies were perched outside the Natural History Museum and I couldn’t resist asking for a photograph!

Ms. Judy Pink.

It’s sad sad news and not a lot of people know, but the beautiful and talented photographer Corrine Day has been battling Cancer for ten years now. Even more sad is the fact that her treatment has costed an absolute fortune over the decade and she is fast running out of money…

So, to get as much money as possible together for the £100,000 treatement needed to keep Corrine alive, limited edition unpublished prints of Kate Moss (Corrine was the first person to photograph Kate) have been signed and put up for sale – prices start at a cheap as chips £100. There are terms and conditions of the sale, which to be honest, are more than fair.

See some of the below iconic photographs of Kate Moss, shot by Corrine…

To purchase one of the prints, contact emily@premiermodelmanagement.com.

Please give generously, this is for an amazing cause.

PRINTS ARE NOT TO BE RE-SOLD.

Despite rumours, The Kills are alive and well

Despite rumours circulating that Alison Mosshart was indeed leaving The Kills to concentrate on side project, The Dead Weather, it has been confirmed that these are just rumours and hold little truth. Rolling Stone published videos of acoustic perfomances from Mosshart and Hince. Mosshart is apparently looking forward to the next Kills record: “This summer off and on I’m doing Dead Weather and then coming back we’re going to write and write just every moment we can,” Mosshart says, Hince then says “And record a record this year.”

See http://www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/07/16/dead-weathers-mosshart-goes-acoustic-with-the-kills-for-rolling-stone/# for the videos.

If you had any doubts about The Kills’ future, doubt no more. The team of Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince is still writing and jamming, despite Alison’s recent work with Dead Weather. In fact, Rolling Stone posted some acoustic footage of Alison and Jamie (above) jamming in their NY hotel room (after a Dead Weather gig!).

Mosshart leaves The Kills.

Alison Mosshart of band The Kills has apparently left to concentrate on her side project with Jack White, The Dead Weather. Being left without a singer, remaining band member Jamie Hince is holding auditions to find a replacement. Girlfriend to Hince, model Kate Moss has expressed interest in taking Alison’s place. According to Hince, Moss will not be getting any preferential treatment at the audition despite being his girlfriend. Moss has always been keen to get her music career started, as shown by her appearances with ex boyfriend Pete Doherty’s band, Babyshambles. “Kate is keen on doing more singing, she wants her voice out there. But Jamie is refusing to even entertain the idea,” says a source. At this point, the only source seems to be newspapers clarifying this news. Neither Hince or Mosshart has commented on this, so the validity of the rumours is still to be seen.

What is this, a Wonka bar? Is Jack White Willie Wonka?! These are questions we can never answer. However, the new Dead Weather disc is out today and 6 of them will contain a golden ticket.

And you are not allowed to break into song like Charlie if you get one.

But what do you win? A tour, yes, but not of a chocolate factory.

Here’s a statement from singer Alison Mosshart herself (oddly enough, on The Kills MySpace blog):

The Dead Weather are releasing their new debut album Horehound TODAY! You can check out videos and songs from the album via their explore page (http://horehound.warnerreprise.com) or via their facebook application (http://apps.facebook.com/thedeadweather).

Both include links to download a free mp3 of “Treat Me Like Your Mother.”

If you haven’t checked out the controversial Jonathan Glazer video for “Treat Me Like Your Mother” visit the band’s youtube channel  (http://youtube.com/thedeadweathertv) to see it along with tons of other videos and live clips.

There are 6 GOLDEN TICKETS hidden within albums of Horehound. Find one and you will win an expense paid trip to Nashville, TN to tour the famous Third Man Records.

Good luck!

Yes. Good luck. And I wonder if any success with this project will kill The Kills’ future. No golden ticket for Jamie Hince.
