Oddness/Weirdness

... and I start dancing in my chair. I'd forgotten to post this video when I saw it but hey... better late than never right? This fancam is of 2NE1at Club Answer in Seoul.  They were previewing their upcoming single from their U.S. album that was produced by Will.I.Am. and apparently having lots of fun. Source:  czucksk84life  via allkpop Image: MCountdown The song actually sounds like it'll be really good and I'll be eagerly anticipating listening to the whole thing.

Today I felt like watching a video that was cute but not so sugary sweet that it gave me visual cavities.  Sugary sweetness is something that Kpop girl groups are usually famous for so I don't often find something I like in that respect. I pulled this video out of my faves because everything about the video is fun, from their styling (LOVE the outfits!) to the visuals, the intricate choreography and the song itself.  There's also really good shoe porn involved and we all know I love that. Enjoy!

A stylish male is always going to be extremely relevant.

Big Bang kicked off their promotions for their Alive album on March 2nd with their first of three concerts in Seoul Olympic Park Gymnastic Stadium.  After these concerts they'll be going on to perform in 16 countries, 25 cities in Asia, North America, Europe and South America. I, for one, cannot wait and the following video illustrates why: Source:  MrKeyVEVO Still waiting for them to announce just which cities they're going to be performing in here in the U.S.  Sigh...

The only thing I can say right now is: Wow! This shoe is custom made to order and " mirrors any environment thanks to gleaming, expertly angled glass pieces producing a one of a kind, chameleon-like effect."

If I was that thin and had that level of money (you know, the kind where you spend $1000 on a pair of shoes without blinking), I'd totally want to dress like Taylor Tomasi Hill.  Talk about my style icon!  Almost every time I see a pic of her I'm pretty much speechless at the fabulosity.  She knows how to put together disparate pieces to make this incredibly fashion forward whole; She's not really trendy... she's just got her own thing going on. Taylor Tomasi Hill is the style and accessories director for Marie Claire US.

What can I say about INFINITE ?  They're a rookie group that's not so rookie anymore.  They've really blown everyone out of the water with their perfectly synchronized dance moves, great songs and adorable personalities.  I have to give props to their choreographer because he always brings it and then Infinite puts their blood, sweat and tears into practicing until they are absolutely perfect. I'm always rooting for them to win stuff and when they did finally start winning awards, I was over the moon for them.  I definitely feel like their  noona  when I'm watching them perform or just being silly on variety shows, and they've managed to dance their way into a special place in my heart.

This post right here is ALL about Big Bang's Alive album... Let's start with: Bad Boy mv- Big Bang’s 5th mini album achieves ‘Perfect All-Kill’ on the charts by JJ Big Bang has achieved a ‘Perfect All-Kill’ as soon as the group released all the songs in the 5th mini album, ‘ALIVE’. Currently on February 29th, Big Bang’s songs are dominating the charts on Melon, Bugs, Mnet, Olleh, Soribada, and others. The songs ‘ Bad Boy’, ‘Love Dust’, ‘BLUE’, ‘Fantastic Baby, ‘Ain’t No Fun’, ‘Wings’, and ‘Intro (ALIVE)’ , are ranked 1 through 7 practically owning the charts. It is especially notable to mention the track ‘Intro (ALIVE)’, as it is purely an intro as described and yet it is ranked at No.7. BLUE , which was pre-released before the release of the album has ranked No.1 on most charts. Seemingly all of Big Bang’s songs are loved by the fans because the group is able to tackle many different genres such as hip hop and electronic. The 5th album was produced by many YG produ

...and they haven't even released their album yet.  Craziness. I told myself yesterday that I was going to relax on the Big Bang posts for a bit because I was starting to feel like a Big Bang fansite, not that that's a bad thing.  THEN... they release something like this: "Bad Boy" teaser- Source:  BIGBANG

There's something so androgynous and edgy about a well-made black leather piece.  

I don't know about you but I love dance as an art form.  I've loved to dance since I was little and I always wanted to be a dancer.  That dream didn't work out for me but I've continued to watch and support many forms of dance, especially hip hop dance and contemporary dance.  Dancing and watching great dancers perform moves me and feeds my soul.  Heck, my favorite show ever is So You Think You Can Dance.  I get heavily invested in each season and I've actually never missed a season. You might ask what that has to do with Kpop.  Well, as you might know, Kpop is a very visual medium and there's a lot of dancing involved; this is a big part of why I love Kpop so much.
