Devandra Banhart

he is a beautiful Venezuelan-American (like myself) unlike me he is an amazingly talented musician. 

here where a few of my favorite things… what are a few of your favorite things?

a little behind

The directorial debut of Oscar-nominated actor Casey Affleck, I’M STILL HERE is a striking portrayal of a tumultuous year in the life of internationally acclaimed actor Joaquin Phoenix. With remarkable access, I’M STILL HERE follows the Oscar-nominee as he announces his retirement from a successful film career in the fall of 2008 and sets off to reinvent himself as a hip hop musician. Sometimes funny, sometimes shocking, and always riveting, the film is a portrait of an artist at a crossroads. Defying expectations, it deftly explores notions of courage and creative reinvention, as well as the ramifications of a life spent in the public eye.

so i’m a little behind and i need to see this.

have any of you seen it out there?

a stripper

so i'm thinking of getting some stripper boots like these what do you think?
as i was looking at stripper shoes i saw these boots; which reminded me of Bettie Paige. i'd only wear them when im working the corner. but i thought they'd be fun.


i don't think i could pull them off like Bettie can.


so i love love love Bettie Paige.
look at her she is stunning and she was a hell cat.
R.I.P Bettie April 22, 1923 – December 11, 2008
