Missing Out
I was planning on attending McDonald's worldwide convention in Florida this year. I've only missed one over the past 12 years as I'm usually working the event. But unfortunately, my attendance didn't pan out this year. Too bad too as I was excited to see Seal and Kelly Clarkson at the closing party. At least Chris is sending my photos so I can share the moment!
Three 4 Three?
I was chatting back and forth with Chris today while he is in Orlando. I mentioned his vitamins never showed up. Then a few minutes later, the UPS guy delivered his package. Later, I made note that the chair we had custom made for the office should be coming soon. He then sends me a note from the manufacturer saying it was done and on its way. So I was essentially two for two. All of which made me ask for a third - finding Jessie Pavelka in the bedroom. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I go three for three. All Chris requested was that I take pictures. Done.
Creeping Closer
I have yet to commit to watching ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" this season - even with William Levy. But when I see clips from the show, that feature Levy's sexy moves and amazing physique, I start to creep closer to the remote. Because let's face it, he looks hot even in a pair of sweats. Am I right ladies?
PTT Recalls Kaci
I loved Kaci Battaglia's "Crazy Possessive" when it was released last year. Sadly, the track never made an impact. But the beat is fierce and so is Kaci in the video. Work it girl.
Wiping 4 Show
Getty Images featured this pic of Cristian Ronaldo today (yes, I'm giving Getty credit to ensure they don't hunt me down - Getty, Getty, Getty). What is it with straight men and their need to wipe their face with their shirt? I'm thinking it's to show off their bod. Oddly enough, someone at the gym this morning did the very same thing. I wasn't looking for it, but BLAM! There it was.
PTT is Amazed
Dutch artist Berndnaut Smilde creates real cloud installations by controlling a space's atmospheric pressure and humidity. Amazing.
Toni, Toni, Toni
Toni Braxton unveiled her official video to her new song, "I Heart You." Unlike some others recent attempts at good pop songs, Toni hits a third base single (not quite a home run). Too bad radio is ignoring the track. As for the video, it's a bit low budget with a shirtless hottie thrown in to keep the gays happy.
I'm still hoping to tell Toni in person my thoughts this week when I escort her through the McDonald's Worldwide convention in Orlando. She's an official judge for the Voice of McDonald's contest and I'm keeping my fingers crossed they need me to manage the talent while in Florida. In other words, I'm on call to ensure Toni and her weave will be happy.
PS - Be sure to pay close attention to the 2?37 mark. Toni is going the "TP dance." ;)
Memories
My cousin posted this picture with the caption (or something like), "Do you know what this is?" I know my friends in the 20s, and some even in their 30s, will be like, "Whaa?" All I can say is I have fond memories of watching "Grease" with the help of these in McPherson Kansas. Thanks for the memory.
Fess Up!
I'm an advocate for working out hard in the gym for results. So of course I get a bit annoyed when someone goes from lean and fit to big and muscley with less than 7% body fat, without attributing it to the cause. Don't pretend it's diet and exercise only. I'm just sayin'. I'm not arguing the fact that this guy isn't hot (I actually prefer the bigger version), but don't give false hope to those who believe your words - that or make the rest of us bitter because we can't keep up au naturale.
Going Deep with William Levy
William Levy, Dancing with the Stars Latin hottie, goes deep in an interview about the show. Just another excuse for him to go shirtless really. I'm sure many won't complain.
Go Shawn!
Check out my friend Shawn Gustafson's new video for his recording of Rihanna's Talk that Talk, Cheers and Roc Me Out.
PTT is Digging Kat
If you watch the Vampire Diaries, you're most likely a fan of Bonnie. But did you know Kat Graham sang too? In fact, she's been trying to make a name for herself in the music biz for a while. Her latest track, "Put Your Graffiti on Me," at first raises eyebrows. But the Beyonce "4" beats grabs on to your brain and won't let go. Besides that, she's a fan of the gays. So check out her performance of the song at SXSW 2012 below.
PTT Recommends Freemasons March Radio Set
If you're on the hunt for some new gym tunes, particularly a DJ set that is full of energy and vocals, check out Freemasons' March Radio mix. Not only does it start with Ms. Perry's new one, but there's a sprinkling of Freemasons hits throughout. Nothing but FUN. Grab it HERE.
PTT Loving Dude
The energy on Mavi & Davide Svezza new track Dude is off the charts. Check it out below. Then grab on iTunes or Beatport.
PTT Likes Dance Again
It's Hot Video Friday! J Lo returns with PitBull (perhaps just a bit too much on this record) for another guaranteed hit for the actress turned songstress turned reality star turned songstress once again. Dance Again, with its melodic chorus, is a feel good dance track DJs will play on the piers to the beaches from Miami to Mykonos this summer.
PTT Likes Calvin Meets Scissors
Calvin Harris is on a roll. Starting with Rihanna, followed up with is very own single, and now a new track by Scissor Sisters, he's giving David Guetta a run for his money. Check out Only the Horses below.
FB Etiquette
Let me repeat myself (because I'm sure I've ranted about Facebook etiquette before today). If you send a FB friend request, follow it up with a note - especially if we've never met. For example, do we have many friends in common? Or do you just want to be friends because you find me interesting? In any case, support your cause with an explanation. It's quick. It's easy. And it raises your chances of being accepted.
Dudes & Donuts
Wow. Scion goes gay with their "Dudes & Donuts" commercial for the tiny automobile. I'm not sure why anybody would buy one after watching, but I suppose it catches some eyes - especially those who like pumped up Jersey Shore wannabes. Check it out below.
PTT Likes ES Collection
When we lived in Munich, I found a pair of ES swim trunks that I adored. So every year, I check out their latest offerings. I'm loving what the Barcelona, Spain based retailer has to offer. Check out some of my favorite screen grabs below from their online CATALOG. I'm hoping to order the "Poland."
