LalaLiars give us some LalaLove!

Last Friday, the SUPERSWEET team skived work and went to Standon Calling Festival for a day in Hertfordshire to check out our favourite band Liars headline. Much to our surprise (and without the band knowing we were coming), one of them was wearing LalaLove's Popeye top!

Sadly this style is now all sold out. But you can check out more here. Latest I heard was that guitarist Aaron is going through some hardcore Madonna phase, so he'll probably be bagging a lot of our Madges too!

Hi, I'm Britney, love me!

And this (on the left) is my sister LadyGaga...

And our whole family of wild cats! Rwaaargh!!!

Love us!

ATP by Matt Groening Tweetathon

So some of you might know, I went to the ATP last weekend and did hour by hour on-site tweets. It wasn't easy, I don't talk to myself all the time that much but it was pretty interesting to have to busy myself all the time so I had things to tell. If you missed it, we had two cool guest tweets and here's the highlights of my past weekend with pictures. Follow us (or me, basically) at @supersweet!

Christmas My Ass Spirit

Am I too unreligious to not get excited about Christmas? I've always been taught that there's no meaning in all the holidays any more and they're now just commercial tools... And look now who's releasing Christmas singles...
All the cool respectable peeps. But who's going to win? We quite like the Pink Eye pose though...
But we think this single below wins, it's awfully disgusting!

Fondazione Prada Book Launch

Last night I was at Bond Street's Prada for the "Fondazione Prada" book launch.

The boutique was transformed into a rather funky space with hundreds of book sleeves on the shelves, mannequins in the exclusive S/S 10 resort collection, green neon lights and loud music. It was packed with fashion designers in the likes of Mr Chris Kane and Mr Aggugini, artists, celebs, socialites and media peeps, eye candy servers, and surprisingly friendly bouncers! I didn't spot anybody worth bragging about - just one actor I admire who turns out to be more camp than I. Isn't that great? Bah!

Well, well. I was there for the Book.
Very briefly, Fondazione Prada is a collaborative project between Muccia Prada, Patrizio Bertelli and Germano Celant with its focus on the trio's shared interest in fashion, design, art and architecture. And, this book, a.k.a. the "Bible" for Prada fanatics, "retraces and represents the multivalent aspects of Prada" from 1995 till present time.

Yes, the book is very thick, gilded with tons of images. I was really excited that I would get to peep at, sniff, caress it at last.
I (and Mr D) spent the rest of the evening chasing trays of canapes - pan-fried foie gras, juicily grilled steak, roast lamb with mushroom jus, seared scallop with risotto nero, etc. The food was LUSH!!! The drinks were alright - mid-range champagne, cocktail and non-alcoholic pear juice. The last one was especially for an alcohol light-weight like me.

Not drinking much was actually a smart idea because half-way through the night the queue for the loo - there was only one unisex loo to share - became much longer than the queue to get into the boutique.

And, the look on pretentious people's faces when they're on the verge of pee-bursting is just ... priceless! LOL

As for the book, I managed to grab my lovely Sandrine, the Bond Street store manager, and using my being a decade-long loyal customer trick, started pleading for a free book. Sadly, the trick didn't work this time. Sandrine says these books only come in very limited edition and are priced at £90 each. What a mercenary bitch!

... Muccia Prada, I mean, not Sandrine :(

On the way out, a thought came swiftly into my head. Maybe I should just break into this glass boudoir and steal the book from these two discerning ladies.
Yet, looking at the beefy bouncers, I'd rather NOT.

Aerosmith do the Splits?

So senior crotch rockers Aerosmith look to have parted company with tyre lipped lead singer, Steve Tyler. These rock behemoths have parted company before, albeit temporarily, due to various, ahem, substance issues.

You’d have thought the band would be about ready to dust off their slippers and get in the queue for a free bus pass by now, but nay, they still have some prima donna antics left before they jump ship. Having recently wobbled off stage, resulting in a broken shoulder, Tyler and the band have hardly spoken. Is this the end for the guys, is Steve really going to walk this way out of Aerosmith or will he stay and not “miss a thing”. Here’s a quick nostalgic quiz to help you through these worried times…

1: Finish the song title - “Love in an ……” ?
a) Elevator | b) Travelator | c) Radiator | d) Respirator

2: What is Steve Tyler's real surname?
a) Torino | b) Tibbles | c) Tallarico | d) Taldakian

3: Aerosmith have appeared on many rock soundtracks, but what iconic rock film have they appeared in?
a) Spinal Tap | b) Wayne's World | c) Almost Famous | d) The Rock

4: Finish these Steven Tyler quotes: “You have no idea how much it costs to look this ...”
a) chipper | b) terrific | c) cheap | d) champion

5: “I love every bone in a womans body, especially ……”
a) her wrists | b) her elbow | c) her pelvis | d) my own

6: “Its as clear as the balls on a …….”
a) tall dog | b) baseball bag | c) basketball court | d) christmas tree

Answers on a postcard please (or a reply back to this blog would be better). The prize is pure, unadulterated self satisfaction at knowing you’re the smartest arse on the block. Here’s fingers, toes and thighs crossed that the mighty Aerosmith stay together…

Letter of the day...

Hi Guys,

I thought you related industry people would be a good source to ask. I am looking for a contact with Benicio del Toro to give him a script. Do you have any leads? My friend is raising 8M for a feature movie. They secured 10% and won the award for the best screenplay at last week’s Atlanta Film Festival. They are seriously going after major awards.

Here is an overview. You can share this overview with others. I have the screenplay for selective readers. I appreciate your help!
