KESHA IS KILLING MUSIC.

often, as all normal females do, i wonder - if i could look like anyone in the whole world, who would i want to look like? i have very strong opinions, everyone has a different one. so, AS YOU DO, i googled 'most beautiful woman in the world', curious. and i clicked on the top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2011 list on ASKMEN.COM. Number one was Blake Liveley.
I love Blake, as a fan of Gossip Girl series 1-3 (lost track after that, but i will get the box set, i know i will), and she is pretty but i wouldnt want to have her face. and everyone knows she had a nose job, so.
but after ten minutes of deep thinking, i realized the women i would love to look like (not in any order)...

1. Carey Mulligan
actress, Never Let Me Go, An Education

2. Uffie
'electronic artist'

3. Kathryn Prescott
Actress, Skins.

last thursday, the fifth series of one of my favourite shows ever - skins - began on E4. and the beginning of the fifth series signalled a new thing - we were about to meet the THIRD GENERATION. i was slobbering at the mouth with excitement. but, as you may guess, as a teenage girl with raging hormones, i was incredibly dissapointed. heartbroken, in fact. and i can explain my heatbreak in two simple words.
NO HUNKS.
when we met Frankie, i thought "JESUS CHRIST WHY THE HELL DID THEY KILL FREDDIE?" untill i realized that in fact, Frankie was a girl. whoops. but apart from a ginger farm boy, a dim jock and a metal head, they had not much at all to offer. but then, as Frankie is playing with a gun, some dude comes over and is like "you're beautiful" and although he is no Cooke or Freddie, he has one beautiful voice. i have decided that i can fancy him in a friendly way, depending on his future personality, but i am still severely heartbroken that there is no one to dribble over. the last series cast (excluding Panda and Thomas, sorry) was frickin' gorgeous so they kind of promised me Brad Pitt and i was given Michael Jackson, so...
never mind. maybe i will fall for their personalities, though my heart still longs for JJ.

hello, second on the left, i wish you had hair like that in skins...

so, i have seen the film adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go. i have never read the book, i have only ever read the first page of it on LOOK INSIDE on amazon. but god blimey, i will be buying that book, as soon as i find out my mother's amazon password.
in case you have not heard of Never Let Me Go, or if you dont know the plot, it is the beautifully shot story beginning in the 70s of Kathy, Tommy and Ruth, three students of Hailsham, a school for scientific specimens (clones) who were created in a laboratory to provide organs for severely ill patients, their 'originals'. although it seems rather sci-fi and fantasy, the story is fully centered on the love triangle between Kathy (Carey Mulligan), Tommy (Andrew Garfield) and Ruth (Keira Knightley).
even if you dont like the sound of it, you HAVE to see it. i am going to have to severely edit my 'fave films chart' after seeing this - Never Let Me Go is truly one of the best films ever.
but be prepared - it might just break your heart.

still believes my soul will soar

and a desperate fear flows

so. i saw the trailer for the first episode of the US remake of the amazing British programme SKINS. if you are blissfully aware of the US version, LOOK AWAY NOW. because if, like me, you hate the idea you will VOMIT at the shocking reality.
so, the central character of the first generation - Tony. in the american version, he has kept his first name and is now Tony Snyder. (shudder). now, i have nothing against James Newman, the guy who plays Snyder, but no one on this earth (most likely) has the charm of Nicholas Hoult. am i right or am i right?
worse, the beautifully camp Maxxie Oliver has been changed into a lesbian called Tea Marvelli. and the legend that is Effy Stonem (played by Kaya Scodelario) has been changed to EURA SNYDER.
American parent groups are already vibrating with anger because it features 'underage actors' doing it. as a result of the show's raciness, Yum! Brands (Taco Bell), Mars, Incorporated (Wrigley), L'Oreal and more have all opted to pull their advertising from the programme shown on MTV. controversy.
now, i'm not hatin', but what is the point? they havent even changed the plot of the episode. sorry Bryan Elsley and Jamie Brittain, but it just seems like you're doing it for the money. the only thing i can see that is good is how freakin' cute Stanley Lucerne (Sid to us), played by Daniel Flaherty is.
heart breaking.

at least they've used good camera effects

all i can say, is that originality is dead.

okay. the only way to begin this blog, really, is to write about one of my favourite musical artists Uffie. first of all i would like to say I DO NOT LIKE POP MUSIC. i do adore Lady GaGa like a sister, but it is purely because she is so individual, in both music and fashion, that she is freakin' amazing.
anyway, back to UFF. i'm not really up for all this 'i'm tha hottest in tha HOOOOD' and 'when i walk into the club everyone salutes', but when Uffie says such things in her songs, such as "bad ass bitch, i'm rated x" and "Me and my stupid flow, me and my myspace with only three tracks a year and they STILL talk about me? Damn" it almost seems as if she's mocking all these 'hard' people. maybe its just how i see it but there.
basically i have never heard of someone as musically interesting as Uffie. each track on her debut Sex Dreams And Denim Jeans sounds totally different to the next, but in a good way. personally, i have no idea why my beloved NME magazine gave it a 0 out of 10.
if i had to rate it...

1) pop the glock - 8/10
2) art of uff - 10/10
3) add suv -10/10
4) give it away - 7/10
5) MCs can kiss - 9/10
6) difficult - 6/10
7) sex dreams and denim jeans - 10/10
8) our song - 5/10
9) illusion of love - 6/10
10) neuneu - 10/10
11) brand new car - 8/10
12) hong kong garden - 7/10
13) ricky - 10/10

and its not like she isnt into good music either - her album features a cover of Siouxie And The Banshee's Hong Kong Garden and Sex Dreams And Denim Jeans is heavily inspired - and features a sample - by the Velvet Underground track 'Rock&Roll'.
heres my point: i'm not saying Uffie is really talented - "I cant even sing, y'know?"- but she sure makes one hell of a good album.
