おめでとう 菊つるさん \(^o^)/

Congratulations to Kyoto's newest geiko, Kikutsuru!

Plum Rain

Takahiro, a maiko in her second year of service in the Gion Kobu district of Kyoto, enjoying the cherry blossoms along the Shirakawa stream from beneath her oiled paper umbrella.

It's been raining all day. Not like an Irish style 'soft' rain, a full on, harcore, plum rain. I'm not complaining, in fact, I quite like it. I'm just trying to keep everyone updated (and use it as an excuse to post this image). (^-^)

Nicole Richie: The question everyone is asking...

PREGNANT OR NOT?





Personally i have no idea, it looks like famine bloat to me.

Lindsay Lohan: This is how celebrities should not be...

Lindsay Lohan's former bodyguard has written a tell-all book, speaking to News of the World he describes how Lohan:

'ATTACKED a gun-wielding cocaine dealer for ripping her off.

SNORTED line after line with Simple Life star Nicole Richie in a TEN-HOUR binge.

SLASHED her wrists with knives, sobbing that she "didn't belong on this planet".

ENJOYED frenzied lesbian romps with scores of girls she picked up at parties, and even made a play for chart star Mariah Carey.'

This is like telling people that the sky is blue or that cows go 'moo'.

Having said that we all know I'm going to read that book.

Aishwarya Rai: This is how celebrities should be...

Oh if all celebrities could be like Aishwarya Rai, just LOOK at her...stunningly beautiful, talented, gracious, dignified, the list just goes on.

You won't catch her stumbling out of a club at 4am or bitching about fellow celebrities...and can I just note that the picture above is a candid photo that is unretouched. She is the true gauge of what a 'star' really is.

In case you didn't notice I'm just a bit in love with her.

Sienna Miller is fashion impaired.

Weasely McWeaselson aka Sienna Miller showed up at a festival a few days ago looking like an instructional example of how not to put clothes together.

For someone whose fame was almost totally the result of being declared a 'fashion icon' it is pretty unacceptable to go out looking like a learning-challenged regional morris dancer.
