Hello Kitty Fabulousness

So you should know by now, unless you have been hiding under a rock, MAC cosmetic's has released a line of products inspired by Hello Kitty. As a Hello Kitty fanatic I waited to view the products in person and pick up a few pieces before my evaluation of the line.

Lipglass $16.50 Can. each


Last week I picked up "she loves candy" lipglass. It's a slightly shimmery pink swirl of cuteness. Its packaged in a tube and comes with an applicator wand just like other MAC lipglass products. The gloss is just a hint of pink, with metallic gold flakes making it great for women of color. I really love "she loves candy" and wish it was in the permanent line of MAC lipglass. Days later I picked up “mimmy” lipglass, its also a light pink gloss with a more frosted pink pigment and less metallic flakes. Its a great colour to use for blending with other glosses or lipstick.

I placed an order for makeup application brush holder and brushes (which was overpriced in my opinion) but I got the hook up from an old friend in the biz so I got it at MAC pro cosmetic artist rate. I might be enticed to pick up “too dolly” eye palate collection this weekend, the palate colours complement each other well.



Too Dolly eye shadow palate $46.00 Can. Makeup brushes with holder
$58.00 Can.

Overall the attempt to capture hello kitty was decent but it just seemed that something was lacking. I was a bit disappointed by both the packaging design and lack of products available. Most items were overpriced and the colour palate for both "mild kitty" and "wild kitty" was limited. With the overwhelming commercial success of the hello Hello Kitty line, I hope that MAC will expand on HK and introduce permanent products in the future. I can see the direction they were trying to go with the campaign...Mild vs. Wild kitty etc. and I'm hip to the game. I peeped how the "wild kitty" is the black model trying to seduce the "mild kitty"...the innocent white model kitty who helpless. MAC you aint' slick...

more info on the hello kitty products can be found here


Jam says: I give Kizz nuff ratings for calling out the RACIST antics by MAC, heaven knows I love MAC, but why, why must I cry?

Loves It

This video of JD, Johnta Austin, Usher, Bryan Michael Cox, and some other dude (aka the "Ocean's 5") was floating all over the web yesterday. Tis a vid of the boys making fun of Christina Milian's new hair and giving their two cents about the RiRi Breezy situation (which I'm pretty much over BTW). I love it, just cuz you're famous doesn't mean that you are not entitled to vocalize your real opinion, not some PR statement.

And in case you've been under a rock, here is the hair in question:

Let this be an example...

The other day Kizz and I went to Drake's Mixtape Release Party and lo and behold, LeBron James' name was added to the bill. We don't really get star struck (maybe because we don't see basketball players as stars per se) so it didn't make us any more excited. But we boogied and got our drink on until we saw the Troop of all white (this is not an exaggeration ppl) girls following behind him and the rest of the Cavs. My first thought, "doesn't he have a girlfriend or something?". So I immediately formed a bond with his fiance Savannah (pictured above at a private party in Atlanta) whom I've never met, and kept an eye out for her. But Lebron was very good. He chilled with his homies, got his two step on, took some photos and sipped some water. I later found out from a source that the females were hired escorts. Whatevs.

The moral of this story is fellas, use LeBron as an example. Money in the bank, travelling all over the world, but he still kept it PG with the other ladies, who I KNOW would've been down for whatever. But let me interject on my own damn self and say that just because he played it safe in the club doesn't mean that things didn't go down later or even before then. Or that he was just playing it safe in T.O. But I'm just gonna give him the benefit of the doubt, and say on the record, that LeBron rocks. Monogamy is always haute. And it doesn't hurt that she looks like a real brown skin female. Good job "King James"

I didn't want to be a crazy fan, so Kizz and I got slick with the photo taking, and that the back of Drake's head BTW lol.

Rihanna Post Abuse

Source: TMZ

What a way to kick off the blog! We'll admit that we were one of those who believed that this incident was probably being over publicized and exaggerated, but this picture put us in our place. In any event, this is GREAT PR for Rhi Rhi, she will come out with a female empowerment track and be bigger than ever (if that's possible). Not to be inconsiderate, because we don't advocate abuse, but this is not going to make us like her any more or like him any less. She's still a packaged artist who can't sing and Breezy is still the likkle dancer getting down with Elmo. And for the record we don't think Breezy's career is over as long as he has a good PR team. There are people in this industry who have peed on and had sex with teen girls (you already know..and if you don't then please leave a comment to be educated), people who have beat up their wives (*cough, cough* Terrence Howard) and they still had/have great careers. You may not like it, but that's just the way it is. Now cue slick ass elmo!
