New TV fail: 'I'm Hotter Than My Daughter'

From the apparent biles of lost footage from the "Jenny Jones" show comes a show so vile that Jerry Springer would close his blood-shot eyes.
Do you fight with your mother over guys? Apparently,  even outside the Appalachian Mountains, some people do.
Welcome to "I'm Hotter Than My Mother." The British show, which pits ADD-fueled young women against their flab-stomached mothers, has taken reality TV to new lows.
I mean, how low can we go if "Flavor of Love" starts looking more like Spielberg TV.
Peep the casting call:
Do you and your daughter share clothes? Do people often mistake you for sisters? Or are people amazed to discover your real age? If this sounds like you and you would like the opportunity to have a fun makeover, then please get in touch.
And you thought "Jenny" had gone the way of analog TV. (Word is "I'm Hotter Than my Granddaughter is in pre-production.)

What if the Obamas were ghetto?

Let's be honest: When you first first heard about Barack Obama, you had no idea the substance of the man. You didn't know he had come out of Harvard or Harlem. You didn't know if he was a lawyer or a layman. You didn't know that his wife was a professional executive in Chicago, rather than a stay at home mom with two tween daughters.
Now, when you found out that stuff out, regardless of the man's speaking ability and likeability, did it make a difference?
Because, if it did, what if the Obamas were hood? What if they were ghetto? Would you still support them? Would you still think they are the epitome of easy style?
What if Obama had a baby mama and did a short bid in college? Would it matter?
Now ask yourself, why?

In the Club: So Mannie Distractions

There's always one: One chick in the club that is willing to go all out.

Marriage in the Hood = Epic Win

As we all know, there is an epidemic of babies having babies in this country. Disproportionately these births are taking place in the cradle of high drug activity and street boisterousness: The hood.
There are a plethora of "ghetto" pics and "ghetto weddings" pics on the Web, and while they may elicit a chuckle here and there, they show an underlining truth that we all must admit: People may be broke, or even a hot mess, but they're still, in the roughest of circumstances, able to love someone.
They may not be able to wear a $1,000 tux and dress like the Obamas, but they evidently have a quality of love just as strong, if not stronger, due to the inherent struggles they face.
And to me, that's gangsta.

London Fashion Show = Hot Mess?

It's been obvious for decades that in western Europe they like their golden calfs mixed with molten chocolate, but even this latest orgy of fashion, photography and chi-chi-ness is kinda out there.
British stylist Simon Foxton gives us the exhibition “When You’re a Boy,” a look back at his fave work over the past 25 years. It very well could have been called "Negroes with Attitudes". It's all masculine and its all fun and games I'm sure. But the pics i saw were kinda weird.

The show is the equivalent of a show by What's his face Alexander on "America's Next Top Model," or perhaps a more rough style of American stylist June Ambrose.
American hotness, which takes its cues from across the pond, will have some catching up to do before this kinda stuff is hot over here. But it's coming.

Indian school bans jeans 'to protect women'

The venerable Associated Press is reporting that a university in India is banning jeans so that apparent sexual harrassment of girls - and distractions - can cease.
The story quotes a school official as saying: "Girls who choose to wear jeans will be expelled from the college," Meeta Jamal, principal of the Dayanand girls' college in Kanpur city told AFP. "This is the only way to stop crime against women."
Evidently Hindu extremist groups have been Taliban-like in their public attacks on people who show any affinity to Western styles of grooming.
Their have been incidences where stars like Beyonce and Rihanna have been told to cover up or don't sing certain songs in certain countries.
All this means that those people certainly think the average American hood or mall is full of straight-up whores, "infidels" who crave sex and pop pills constantly searching for a good time.
Wait - what?

Social Web site + Your Nudity = No Job4U

Social networking has taken the Web by storm in the past 2 - 3 years: People have acquired "Friends" by the thousands, conversations have been enjoyed by diverse people across the globe and ... people - normally reserved shy people - are putting rude pics, nude pics all up on the Web for the world to see.
Is that smart?
Last year it was reported that companies have their recruiters scouring the Web to make sure potential candidates haven't played themselves on the Web. But guess what: So many have.
So many people (not to mention malicious pranksters)have put nude shots of themselves on the Net that it's like they don't want to ever get a job. And to think, we're in a recession-depression.
Would you do it?
Could you do it?

That Hot Ghetto Mess Dress

Killer dresses are certainly a necessary evil.

They draw all kinds of attention, much of it unwanted. They also show off your style, personality and figure like nobody’s business. Tastefulness is a lost art these days, but so is good material. Now, if you don’t have a style maven to depend on then all is not lost: Dresses often take on a life of their own, and that’s a good thing. Try on one of your best dresses and assessorize to make it better. And when posing for pictures? Try not to do the customary “booty shot”! LOL.
