These kids say NYC "right now" and NYC "timeless" at the same time. I don't know how it works like this but it just does.

Jennifer Capriati's ex-boyfriend says his return to porn compounded her depression

THE former boyfriend of Jennifer Capriati says her recent drug overdose was linked to his return to work in the porn industry and her depression over being forced out of tennis by injuries.

Jennifer Capriati
The 34-year-old former international tennis star was reportedly rushed to the hospital early Sunday from her 19th floor luxury condo in Riviera Beach, Florida, just north of West Palm Beach.

Her father claims that an accidental overdose of prescription medication was to blame.

Her former boyfriend Dale DaBone told TMZ that Capriati got horribly depressed when Grand Slam events were being played, and that she was also upset about his recent return to working in porn.

DaBone had worked in 443 films, the entertainment website reported, and recently signed on with Vivid Entertainment to star in Batman XXX: A Porn Parody.

Meanwhile on CBS's The Early Show today, Justin Gimelstob, a former tennis star and a friend of Capriati's, said he heard from Jennifer's mother, who told him she is doing well physically and is resting.

Ioana Raluca Olaru hottest female Tennis player from Romania

Ioana Raluca Olaru definitely belongs among the hottest female tennis players on tour. This super-sweet cutie from Romania is yet another top tennis hottie from this east-European land, and I must say she's definitely one of the cutest girls on tour. It is really the combination of sweet, sensual, and innocent that makes Ioana so hot, and it is really no wonder her army of fans is increasing each day. While her game still needs some improvement, her look doesn't. Watching her play is really a sight for sore eyes so make sure to take a look.

Here are some nice hot photos featuring hot female tennis player Ioana Raluca Olaru. Click on the picture to enlarge it.









Black and white and cool all over

Love the black and white on both of them. The girl on the left has more of a rocker vibe while the one on the right is a little more subdued...except for the stockings that suggest that maybe she isn't what she seems...

Die Antwoord's NYC premiere at the Creators Project Launch

DieAntwoord-copy
Saturday night was the first live show in NYC by Die Antwoord (Ninja, Yo-Landi Vi$$er and DJ Hi-Tek Go Ninja), South Africa's redneck rap ravers with major major buzz. Whether you love or hate their high-energy aggro onstage attitude, it's clear they're tapping into a new zeitgeist. Which then makes perfect sense that their New York debut would be part of a larger debut: that of The Creators Project. An initiative by VICE and Intel Corporation to identify artists across the world who are pushing creative boundaries through technology. I had the opportunity to attend this event and in a word it was EPIC.


creatorsColorized

For 12 hours, from 2 pm until 2 am, Milk Studios in Chelsea was taken over by music, interactive installations, video screenings and workshops. (as well as food and an open bar available the entire time) At times utterly overwhelming it was also extremely exhilarating. I felt like a kid with a free pass for all the rides and cotton candy at the amusement park with the knowledge that there wasn't enough time for everything. ...so I suppose it wasn't the worst position to be in! While you can read all about it on the Creators Project website I'll mention a few personal highlights:

First the music, music, music! In addition to Die Antwoord I was able to see M.I.A., Interpol and The Rapture (Luke Jenner of The Rapture left) and was introduced to the sound of Sleigh Bells and Sulumi. There were many more amazing acts that I caught in part while wandering about or missed altogether.

The Creators Project isn't just about music but about the mix of creativity with technology.  I stopped by a talk given by James Powderly, a Co-founder of the Graffiti Research Lab, where he spoke about the Eyewriter Project and his friend, graffitti artist Tempt One who inspired the project. Tempt had been diagnosed with ALS-a disease resulting in near paralysis-and The Eyewriter Project created eyetracking technology that allows Tempt to continue his art by tracking the motion of his pupils and replicating it as lines. It was an utterly inspiring use of technology.

James Powderly at The Creators Project from Creators Project on Vimeo talks about open source technology.
This was followed by an extremely rowdy Pop Song Panel with a lot of audience participation. Mark Ronson, Sam Spiegel and Alan Palomo and Alex Greenwald led the audience in creating a pop song in under an hour. They started by asking what the audience wanted and we started with a good beat and amped bass. Later a volunteer girl from the audience, Tiffany Ortiz added the chorus "Can't Delay the Party" (the line shouted out earlier by an audience member)

In addition to these events and the performances there was great art everywhere.

The Digital Flesh Installation by Radical Friend
One of my favorite projects was Radical Friend's The Digital Flesh. An interactive installation, it allows participants to enter a giant cone, have their 3-D image scanned and their likeness added to the giant "living" organism projected above the cone. Once the Creators Project is done with the world tour (it's set to go to South Korea, Germany, Brazil, France, the UK and China) the digital being that is made of the sum of the 3-D scans will be birthed in a digital seance in Beijing.

Of course with great art and music there is great style. And I got a ton of great photos of attendees as well and will be showing them to you over the coming weeks. So if you are in any of the cities on the Creators Project tour try to get one of the coveted invites - or check the website for opportunities to win tickets. Although your experience will be different than mine I have no doubt it will be equally exhilarating, inspiring and alot of raucous fun!

Jennifer Capriati recovering from 'accidental overdose'


Jennifer Capriati is recovering from an "accidental overdose" of prescribed medication, according to a spokeswoman for the three-time Grand Slam winner.

The 34-year-old former world number one was rushed to hospital in South Florida early on Sunday morning by paramedics.

But Lacey Wickline told The Associated Press that the American is now "stable" and expected to make "a full recovery".

Capriati won the 1992 Olympics, the 2001 Australian and French Opens and the 2002 Australian Open title.

She turned professional at the age of 14 in 1990 and reached the semi-finals of Wimbledon a year later, after defeating then defending champion Martina Navratilova.

But her career was derailed by off-court problems, including a shoplifting incident in 1993 and an arrest for possession of marijuana the following year.

She did not play at all in 1995 but subsequently returned to the highest echelons of the game and picked up her three Grand Slam titles.

Her playing career was finally ended in 2005 after she underwent surgery for a persistent shoulder problem.

Save Anna redux

">_DSC0063
Okay. I've commented on boys wearing shorts more often, and more evidence to come, but the other trend I'm seeing with both boys and girls is this: let's call it a "tunic" trend.

Forever 21 so keep your ID handy

IMG_0426
All the cool kids came out on the hottest day of the year to swill champagne like swells at the new Forever 21 store in Times Square. The bastion of trendy clothes at killer prices is now in the heart of the city.  So it begs the question as to whether this gal's abbreviated outfit is intentionally/ironically or accidentally channeling someone south of the Mason-Dixon line...
