adminIt’s only a week before Christmas.
Are you ready for the green and red themed day?
I believe you are doing the last minute rush on what to wear next weekend.
The challenge being that fashion comes everyday and new things keep on popping, but keep the swag anyway.
The granny grey hair highlights are a hit. Remember when we tipped you that it was hot but some thought of us as backward?
Just remember to trust your hairstylist on this one to avoid looking like a real gogo.
On to music, so Chris Brown premières his music video for “Back To Sleep” on YouTube: Watch it!
Breezy Boy released yet another music video for a song from his upcoming album “Royalty”, which arrived in stores across the US yesterday.
This new music video is for the sultry R&B jam “Back to Sleep”, whose original title was “(oops we can’t print the actual words here) $$$$ but which for obvious reasons had to be modified for inclusion on the final album track-listing.
The “Back to Sleep” music video is a direct continuation to the video for “Fine By Me”, which Breezy Boy, released last month via VEVO too.
The new MV opens with Chris Brown escaping from the mysterious facility where he had to fight for his life in the “Fine By Me” visual.
An agitated Chris Brown will immediately call his girlfriend and ask her if he can drop by her place to chill.
Upon hearing an affirmative response, Rihanna’s ex will hit the GF’s house.
Hot video it is, well done and hopefully next year will take another gong for best video cinematography.
Gadget of the week:
HoverBoard
This is the best so far to happen in 2015.
Although expensive, the HoverBoard which is ranging from $400, (I don’t know about the fake market) but the gadget has hit H-town
The HoverBoard is simultaneously fascinating and exhilarating.
The magic behind the board lies in its disc-shaped hover engines.
These engines induce an opposing magnetic field in the surface substrate below that provides lift, levitating our board off the ground.
While the Hendo hoverboard is primarily intended to be human-driven, the technology that gives it stability can also be used to drive it via remote control by altering the projected force on the surface underneath it.
Big screen
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” premièred world wide this week including our usual place, Ster Kinekor theatres in Westgate and Eastgate.
The big news about “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” is — spoiler alert — that it’s good!
The much anticipated movie was created by George Lucas since 1977.
“All of the premières have always been in London. It’s like coming home to an event we’ve done for the last 40 years but this was the biggest by far,” he said.
Despite the pre-release hype, it won’t save the world, not even Hollywood, but it seamlessly balances oldies — Harrison Ford, ladies and gentlemen — and new kinetic wows, along with some of the niceties that went missing as the series grew into a phenomenon, most crucially a scale and a sensibility that are rooted in the human.
It has the usual toy-store-ready gizmos and critters, but it also has appealingly imperfect men and women whose blunders and victories, decency and goofiness remind you that a pop mythology like “Star Wars” needs more than old gods to sustain it.
JJ Abrams, the director of “The Force Awakens”, may not have the makings of a god or an empire builder like Lucas, but he turns out to be what this stagnant franchise needs: a “Star Wars” super-fan and pop culture savant.
Given that the fans have been doing much of the heavy lifting for a while, holding up the franchise even as the filmmakers let them down with some titanic clunkers (“Attack of the Clones’ — why, George, why?), it seems fitting that the new film was directed by one of their own.
Abrams was 11 when he saw the original “Star Wars” back in 1977; by the time he was a teenager, he had a gig cleaning Steven Spielberg’s old student movie.
For me, I will give the movie four stars although I am not a fan of it but encourage you to at least take time to go and watch it.
Enjoy your weekend and with the unreliable weather always keep the swag
