Top 5 Celebrities I hope to become friends with: Kanye West – Rapper. Obviously he would be the most insane guy to hang out with. I saw him at a party in Paris but was too chicken to buddy up to him. Aziz Ansari – Comedian/Actor. Super funny. Jason Schwartzman – Actor. Seems really cool. Befriending him puts me one step closer to Wes Anderson. Donald Glover – Actor/Comedian/Rapper. Funny young guy. Really blowing up right now. Abdi Farah – Artist. From the reality show Work of Art. Seems like the nicest guy ever.
Oh shoot! Forgot Tim Gunn! Anyways, Ansari, Schwartzman and Glover have all represented Band of Outsiders menswear. I’m definitely going to that party during Fashion’s Night Out.
Top 5 Female Celebrities I hope seduce me: Marloes Horst – Model. Beautiful northern european blonde. Cintia Dicker – Model. Beautiful Brazillian ginger. Abbey Lee Kershaw - Model. Beautiful Australian. Seems fun. Blake Lively - Actress. Actually, I might hate her. I can’t decide. Nicole Nadeau - Artist. From the show Work of Art. Major babe, very talented.
What’s the deal? You don’t want to be friends with any women? Sure but I spend less time fantasizing about it.
Educated girls. Yeah, “street smarts” are okay but I find it really attractive when girls have a university education. It makes them interesting to talk to. Also it helps that these two are foxes. (Pictured are Zoe and Kristen. They have boyfriends so they are out.)
Also,
Funny Girls. Some girls are funny because they do dumb things. Some girls are funny because they make good jokes. I’m talking about the kind that make good jokes. I like to laugh, loudly and often. (Pictured is Meags. She does improv comedy and is very good at it.)
A little while back I wrote a song for a girl. I was going to release it as part of an EP entitled “Embarrassing Songs I Wrote for Girls”, but that probably won’t be happening right away so I thought I’d just release it now on its own.
The song is meant to be funny and sorta romantic I guess. I sampled the beginning of Taylor Swift’s “You belong with me” (that’s where the hilarious song title comes from) and messed it up a little bit. I thought the results sounded kind of like a Magnetic Fields song, so I tried to channel Stephen Merrit while I was writing the lyrics. I threw in the Bon Iver bit at the end because I needed an excuse to use auto-tune. It is so much fun to play with. It was really hard for me not to auto-tune the whole song.
Who is this girl? In the song I refer to her as “Internet Dream Girl” so she’s a girl I know mostly from the Internet. Let’s just leave it at that for now.
Did the song work? I suppose it served its purpose. See, this nice young lady doesn’t live in Winnipeg so I didn’t really have a shot anyways. I just wanted to… I guess let her know. She probably already knew, but now I know that she knows.
The song is a bit sappy but I’m a sappy guy. I hope you enjoy it.
Okay this is the other video I mentioned yesterday. This one isn’t a narrative, it’s a bit more of an experimental-performance-art piece, but I’m into that too.
“Another friend of mine (Sarah Piantadosi, who was behind the Stop Motion Vogueing video a few posts back.) was the Director of Photography on the Video Lookbook for the new Nova Dando line.”
