TIMES SQUARE! IT’S ON WITH ALEXA CHUNG!
My very first non television makeup job was two years ago doing grooming for an LRG campaign with photographer Kareem Black. It was an incredible experience, with one of the images from that shoot ending up on a billboard in Times Square. I would say that I’d always dreamed of having work in Times Square, but the truth is that everything happened so fast that I never really had a chance to think that far ahead. Two years later, I’ve got my second billboard with a promo for the MTV show ‘It’s on with Alexa Chung’
Nothing but lips for this – Which was so much fun! It was great to get to get a chance to experiment with different colors and textures – Especially since it’s not every day that I get a request to create something like an icy blue pucker.
Last week I took a trip to Times Square, and despite sitting on a cinderblock for 20 minutes while refusing to move out of the way so a newly married couple could take their wedding photos in front of the screen – I didn’t get to see the promo for myself. Allegedly it’s still running because Kareem has a video of himself standing in front of the jumbo tron (He also shot this billboard). I’m also told that you can also catch it during The Hills (Good looking out Jenni!).
Anyway, Kareem’s video is below. And all three promo’s can be viewed in the video section of this site

Have You Ever Been Addicted To the Creamy Crack?
As a child, my very curly hair was something I always hated about myself, and watching my mother relax her hair every few weeks certainly did not encourage me to love what I was given.
At 27 I’m growing out Japanese straightener, and learning to love my curls has been an ongoing process involving nurturing my hair and my relationship with it every single day. In fact, this is as close to natural as my hair has been since 2002. I was platinum blonde circa 2003-2004…Began Japanese straightening by 2005…and by early 2006 I had graduated to a weave – Which I would become addicted to for the next 3 years.
I miss the weave…and I often think about putting one in again. If you’ve never had one, I can’t explain what it’s like to have PERFECT hair and then suddenly have hair that’s not.
This fall, Chris Rock is exploring this exact subject in his documentary ‘Good Hair.’
Here’s the official trailer. Chris Rock is in it, so it goes without saying that it’s hilarious…But, it’s also pretty thought provoking, particularly when he makes a failed attempt to sell some Black hair to a wig buyer, and jokingly says “So my nappy hair isn’t worth anything?”
I’m not much of a movie goer, but I can not wait to see this.
Wedding Entrance – The Extended Version!
I have watched this AT LEAST a dozen times, and it still doesn’t get old. The re-creation for the Today show might actually be even better than the original!
