Campaign to register world's invisible children

Thompson plans to sell a line of jewelry and scented candles. The wax from the candles can be used as a massage moisturizer. The new adventure is very personal.

"My designs, my candles, my jewelry, all of it is 100 percent me," said Thompson, from the comfort of Jaffi's, the boutique in Neptune Beach where her modeling career began.

The candles come in a variety of scents. The names read like her monthly travel itinerary: Hong Kong Blossoms; London Hot Tea and Ginger; Los Angeles Lilly; Milan Melon; Paris and Berries; and Central Park.

"Everything is literally touched by my hands," said Thompson. "It's all me. They're my babies. I love them."

So, what about the name, Supermodel?

"I've tried to make my collection real. It's stuff that I love and I would wear and I'm a supermodel so I was thinking, 'Hey! Supermodel.' It's easy."

"It's very exciting to see a young woman follow her dreams, not just in modeling community but also as an entrepreneur," said Emilie Christenson. The owner of the store on First Street in Neptune Beach says she remembers the moment when Thompson's modeling career took off in her store.

"I had known her as a customer at Jaffi's," smiled Christenson. "She came in and she said, 'I want to do a photo shoot for you and I will rock it.' I just laughed and thought she's so adorable. Of course we'll use you for a photo shoot. And, she rocked it. It's probably the best photo shoot we've ever done."

The rest is history. Thompson went on to win America's Next Top Model hosted by Tyra Banks. Since then, she's on major magazine covers and traveling the world. In fact, she stopped in Jacksonville for just a few days before flying to some other far-away place.

Thompson will be back in town briefly over the next two weeks.

She's giving a modeling seminar on November 20.

SOMEONE WHO IS NOT LINDSAY FILMED DURING
BATHROOM CONFERENCE THAT DID NOT INVOLVE COCAINE


Popdirt.com: X17 reports Lindsay Lohan and Brandon Davis engaged in “some very suspicious activities in the bathroom” of a house party in the Hollywood Hills [Nov. 15th]. When those inside the bathroom spotted the paparazzi outside, they shut the window and subsequently started throwing food at the pesky paps. When LiLo emerged later in the morning [around 7AM], she was asked how she was able to stay up so late and the video they shot is labeled “llohan111209coke.mp4″.

In response, Lohan told her Twitter followers:
"hahaha x17online posted photos of NOT ME inside someone’s bathroom…
All negativity&bad karma..nice try though kids-u should do a deal with michael lohan sr :) a match made in heaven! perfect, he’s religious!
Thank you for keeping my company!
Is it even legal to say such things like these bloggers do? Isn’t it defamation of character!?!? Slander maybe? Anyone? lol"

The video in question can be found here.

Personally, I think a twitter response was not a smart move. It only draws more attention to the video. As for the response itself, for her to imply that it must've been some doppelgänger is pretty asinine. If she really felt the need to respond, she should have played innocent and said she just went in there to talk. (Linds, can I be your part-time handler/manager or something??? You could still snort all the coke and Adderall you want, I promise! I would just be there to help you channel some of that excess speedfreak energy into something useful like say, a steady job, for instance. Think about it, bb!)

36 New Spoiler Promo and Behind-the-Scenes Pics from Ep. 10 and 11




New promo pics for episodes 10 and 11 of BBC's The Adventures Of Merlin ( even though Merlin himself is more of a sidekick now and not the lead imo ) and it looks to be that the last couple or so episodes of season two look to be stronger and much more on par with season one's solidity if you can even call it that. At least their use of the reset button at the end of most of the episodes is pretty consistent and a true constant that I am sure a lot of fans absolutely love !

Anyhow, onwards with the massive photo post and again, since a lot of you have not seen season two yet or have not watched it online I will post these under the cut to be safe.

Morgana fans should be very happy with these to say the least and Merlin looks to be gaining a bit of much needed muscle.

I picked this up rummaging around youtube - I should say outright that I don't have any secondary sources on this, so it could be completely made up. But if it IS true, it's something of a 'nice idea, bad execution' - and it would certainly explain some of the Relationship Writing Fumble that is Justin and Alex.

The script originally written for WOWP had Justin and Alex as friends then BF and GF but they rewrote it for them to be bro and sis to break Disneys FAMILY STEREOTYPE.

Which is this:
-One girl/guy (Alex, Raven, Miley, Zack, Lizzie, Ren)

-Give them an annoying sibling (Jackson, Cory, Cody, Matt, or Louis. Annoying sibling was supposed to be Max for WOWP)

-Give main characters Two Best Friends (Chels and Eddie, Lilly and Oliver, Maddie and London, Miranda and Gordo, + Louis's two friends. Justin was supposed to be Alex's 2nd best friend, but they changed it. She only has one, Harper.)

Granted, WOWP is the only Disney show I've ever watched (aside from Kim Possible) but from what I've heard, this 'family stereotype' template, at least, seems quite precise.

Egypt is set to establish the world's first internet domain name written in Arabic, .masr, its communications minister says.

Twenty-eight-year-old Natalie Horler is the face of Cascada, and it’s her powerful voice which sets the German Eurodance outfit apart in a genre where artists are often interchangeably anodyne. Part girl-next-door, part Ann Summers catalogue vixen, her image is at once fun and assertive with a charmingly cheeky edge.

Third album 'Evacuate the Dancefloor', released earlier this year, has seen Cascada expand their musical range, with some tracks coming much closer in style to the glossy R&B of Lady Gaga than the beat-heavy Eurodance of DDR games and fairground rides. Riding high on the success of the title track and first single, they're soon embarking on a Clubland tour with N-Dubz, Darren Styles and Agnes, which includes a date at the HMV Hammersmith Apollo on 5 December.

I caught up with the bubbly Horler on a long-distance phone call to Germany, where she resides, to get the dirt on Cascada's new sound, their upcoming UK tour and her take on London.


Hi Natalie. Firstly, I'd like to clarify: are you considered to be Cascada, or are you the image and vocalist of what is, in fact, a group?

Natalie Horler: We actually are a group. I work with two producers [Yanou and Manian] and the three of us make up Cascada. They just don't come on tour, that's all; I do the whole live bit and they do all the producing. They've always chosen to stay low-profile where I've always been the face of everything, that's why sometimes there's a misconception.

What about the song-writing, is that a collective process?

NH: Yes. Although Yanou and Manian do most of that... Yanou is the brains behind it.

( EVACUATE THE DANCEFLOOR, I'M INFECTED BY THE SOUND... )

MODS: my html was all jacked on my last version of this post. Please post this one?

Slipknot Singer Weds In Vegas

.(Possible wife?)

It was a rockin' affair when the lead singer of Slipknot tied the knot Friday.

Corey Taylor married Stephanie Luby at Las Vegas's Palms Hotel, where the wedding party walked down the aisle to Metallica's "For Whom The Bell Tolls." (Should have been "Harvester of Sorrow")

The 350 wedding guests who packed the hotel's Pearl Concert Theater – fitting since the wedding quickly turned into a concert – included Sugar Ray's Mark McGrath, as well as Camp Freddy's Dave Navarro and Billy Morrison, who acted as the minister. To no one's surprise, the rockers all took the stage, a source said, and even the groom joined in on three songs.

Slipknot, known for its hard rock and the clown-like masks they wear on stage, won a Grammy in 2004 for their single "Before I Forget."
