Gorillaz Olympics Ad

Why is this so kickass and why doesn't America have ads like these. This one is based on the folk tale of the Monkey King, a Chinese tale.

Reebok Easytone

I actually saw someone walking down Newbury a few days ago wearing Reebok Easytones, and my, were they ugly. Plus, I knew they were Easytones because they are so over-marketed and have the most annoying commercials. Ever. Not as annoying as this or this (migraine warning), but still VERY annoying.



Why would you buy a pair of shoes that tells everyone you're trying to get a better butt? Or maybe I'm wrong in wondering that--I guess heels were designed to lengthen legs and tighten butts, too? But heels aren't gimmicky! Ughhh now I'm just rambling.

Charlotte E. Watson

A Ms. Charlotte E. Watson is listed in the Columbia University Class of 2013 registry... Charlotte being Emma Watson's middle name. Sigh. Last I heard, she was going to Brown. I didn't even know that Penn was on the table. Maybe she thinks she'll be more anonymous in the city? But didn't she hear about the mice in student housing? The one-hour wait for a study carrel?? Er, I guess neither of these concerns really apply to her. I recall D. Radcliffe made $25 mil. for the upcoming Harry Potter movie, so she must have earned something at least comparable. So ... no NYC rats for her, I'm guessing. This news figment combines two of my previous posts (one about Emma and another about Columbia) but not in a way I particularly like, haha.

Also, Emma is on the latest cover of Teen Vogue (fresh and lovely) and she's the new face of the Burberry print ad campaign (smo[u]ldering, sophisticated). Really, not bad for 19. Not bad at all.
