John Continues to Share All the Details

PopSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:30:00 -0800

John Mayer was proud to show off his colorful tattoo sleeve on the December cover of Details. He's out and about talking about his latest album, Battle Studies, but in typical Mayer fashion John didn't only speak about business. Just like in his recent interview with the New York Times, John quickly got candid about his personal life. Here's more:

On his relationships with Hollywood's leading ladies: "You just never know who’s going to come into your life. To my mind, the only thing sicker than saying, 'Wow, you’re a famous person and it would do a lot for my career to go out with you,' is to say, 'Wow, you’re a famous person and I like you and all, but I can’t do that to my career.' I don’t think either of those is a good option."
On his unexpected collaboration with country star Taylor Swift: "I don’t know if you know, but I’m not exactly Bob Dylan - I’m already a pop musician . . . I want to reach as many people as possible."
His music vs. his celebrity persona: "Sometimes I feel like I do two things for a living. I make records and I talk to people. The record is much, much better than any interview I can give - you’ll walk away from the record liking me a hell of a lot more than you would walking away from an interview."

Darth Vader Tattoo Design T-Shirt: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 13:02:28 -0800

Marc Ecko is really establishing himself as the mainstream go-to for Star Wars apparel, after having introduced the Boba Fett Hoodie and Storm Trooper Hoodie.

And he's not content to stop there. There's a whole SW shop up - with one of my favorite new pieces being this Darth Vader T-Shirt with a tattoo-inspired design ($34). It's sort of Ed Hardy meets Star Wars, and the intersection is so fun and kitschy, I think I might be into it.

It's definitely a way I've never seen Luke's father - but is that a good or bad thing?

FlashForward Breakdown, "Playing Cards With Coyote"

BuzzSugar — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:30:30 -0800

After Al's tragic suicide on last week's episode of FlashForward, this week shows how the idea of "changing the game" has affected all the characters. Mark and Olivia start to find new hope for their relationship, Lloyd teaches Simon a lesson, and Aaron learns more about where his daughter has been for the past two years.

Ready to get into all the details? Just read more.

"The future can be changed": Al's death makes headline news when Celia gets her letter in the mail, instilling hope in Mark and Demetri - for a bit. Mark whisks Olivia off on a romantic getaway and things seem to be much happier between the two. But once they're back to regular life, they both get a reality check: Mark gifts her the lingerie she's wearing in her flash forward, and Aaron's reunion with Tracy makes Mark go back to believing that the visions may be set in stone.

The stars are aligned: Mark thinks he has a big lead when some footage shows up of a man he recognizes from his vision - a woman named Ingrid reports a crime and her phone images reveal a man with a tattoo of three stars on his arm. Thinking it's the same pern who breaks into his office in the future, Mark immediately dedicates himself to finding the guy. Using Ingrid as bait, Mark manages to take kill him, and rushes home to Olivia to tell her that they're going to have a second chance because he changed the game. But then - surprise! There's a whole crew of dudes with that tattoo. Um, seriously Mark? This never occurred to you? It's not like the guy has an unmistakable tattoo of Edward Cullen on his arm.

That was a crazy game of poker: Feeling guilty about that whole deadly experiment thing, Lloyd sends out an email to a few colleagues saying "We have to take responsibility." Of course, Simon isn't pleased about Lloyd's plans to go public and wants to settle their argument over a game of Texas hold 'em. There's plenty of trash talking from Simon, who thinks that he and Lloyd are gods for the impact they've had on the planet. He tosses around ideas of fate (was anyone else thinking about Lost's Charlie and his fate finger tape?) and just when Simon thinks he's sitting pretty, Lloyd turns the tables with a sleight of hand. (Some U2 lyrics come to mind here). Somehow I still don't think Simon is going to make it easy for Lloyd to publicize what they've done.

Reunited and it feels so good? Tracy is back at home with Aaron, but she's not exactly the same girl that went off to war. She's lost her leg in combat and suffering from PTSD, which she's reluctant to discuss with her dad at first. Feeling confident from his flash forward, Aaron encourages Tracy to open up about what happened overseas. She finally reveals that her near-death experience was an ambush from Jericho, a group of military contractors that she ratted out after seeing something she shouldn't. Tracy is paranoid after living a life on the run for two years (and is not at all pleased when Aaron talks to Mark about her situation). Though keeping track of all the different characters and their separate story lines is getting confusing, I'm liking this new development in Aaron's story.

Other plot points:

Janice tries to quit but Stan won't let her. As she continues to contemplate Al's death and her vision, she starts looking into sperm donation - does this mean those are tears of joy in her flash forward?

Ingrid says that she remembers one of the shooters saying "QED," which is also brought up during Simon and Lloyd's poker game.

Ingrid and her bird collection can be added to the list that already includes the crows and the bird crashing into Fiona's window.

So, is that Simon strangling Nicole in her vision? Creepy. I'm wondering if she finds out his secret and tries to intervene.

How'd you feel about this week's episode? Any new theories on what's going to happen over the next few months? Let's get the conversation going!

Star-Faced Tattoo Girl Continues Her Complaint Campaign

BellaSugar — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 12:59:18 -0700

A whopping 95 percent of you think that the case of this star-faced teenager is going nowhere fast. Like you, I keep wondering, "Who could fall asleep while 56 stars were tattooed on your face?!" But Kimberley Vlaminck continues to argue that she deserves payment because she asked for only three tattoos. Her original claim - the tattoo artist spoke broken English and French and therefore didn't understand her request - seems pretty flimsy, considering how well the guy speaks English in this video.

Lindsay Brings Her Crop Tops to Twinkle in LA

PopSugar — Mon, 18 May 2009 07:40:58 -0700

Lindsay Lohan was baring her belly all around LA as she spent the weekend shopping with Ali and at Samantha Ronson's house. She gave us a good look at the Marilyn Monroe tattoo on her forearm, which reads "Stars, all we ask for is our right to twinkle." Ali is still attached at the hip to her sister, which Dina thinks is great for the younger Lohan. Pretty soon, though, LL will have her new acting job to occupy her time, although many of you aren't convinced she'll behave herself once filming starts.

Lindsay Says I Love You With a Tattoo

BellaSugarUK — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 09:00:00 -0700

While Lindsay Lohan went for a classically stunning red carpet look at the MTV Video Music Awards this weekend, it's her wild child side and willingness to experiment with beauty looks that I always find more interesting.

Even though Lindsay has remained coy about the exact nature of her relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson, she has revealed that Sam's indie girl tattoos inspired her to get a matching one done. The matching tattoos could well be a rock n roll beauty symbol of the girls' love, but either way it's somewhat surprising that Lindsay and Sam chose to go for quite common shapes.

"Samantha has a bunch of stars, so I got that," Lindsay tells US Marie Claire in their October issue. Then, pointing to a little heart, she says, "She (Samantha) got this. I'm really happy, she's a great person. And she's a great influence on people around her."

While most of you are torn about whether tattoos look tacky or not, as a beauty trend they're becoming almost ubiquitous as stars like Angelina Jolie, Nicole Richie and Fearne Cotton all go under the needle. I'm not sure how I feel about matching tattoos for anyone though, but if any girl could pull it off, I'm sure Lindsay will do it with style.

My girl Pop US has all the pics from her shoot.

Rodarte's Death Valley Voodoo Ladies: Love It or Hate It?

FabSugar — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 08:00:22 -0700

Rodarte continues to be a hot ticket at New York Fashion Week. With a unique point of view and celebrity cheerleader Kirsten Dunst, their next moves are closely monitored. I'm always intrigued by their inspirations - in the past it's been Japanese horror movies and Star Wars. For Spring, the Mulleavy sisters took a trip to Death Valley, hence their dusty palette and rugged trimmings. Laura referenced freaky, dark feathery friends: "California condors, the big, bald, black vultures that faced extinction in the late '80s." Aside from the black sand on the runway, the interpretation wasn't too literal - tribal tattooed arms provide some voodoo mystique. Rodarte partnered with Nicholas Kirkwood on their always intense shoes. I'm on the barbwire fence with this once, what about you?
