"Put some lipstick on, Perfume your neck and slip your high heels on" - Manicure, Lady Gaga
It's coming at you January 12th at 6pm to be exact. Oh, you wanna know what's coming at you don't you? Of course you do!
Emmy Nominated MUA Robert Hensley is launching his YouTube and Podcast show Face Value. "Yes" I'm gonna give you a quick overview of what FV is right here, right now. The show contains candid conversations about our perceptions of beauty.
Robert's first guest is the amazing and talented Valarie Pettiford probably best know for her role "Big Dee Dee" Thorne on Half & Half. I've seen the premiere episode and it is something you don't want to miss! It's insightful not to mention fun!
So I'm going to hand this over to Robert and let him tell you more about it via this video teaser...
Want to know more? Robert gave yours truly five juicy reason you need Face Value in your life:
1) These are truly candid conversations; there was no script, just real talk, recorded live!
2) This is a diverse roster of guests with a range of experiences across the entertainment industry; actors, content creators, and artists expressing a variety of perspectives on beauty.
3) Each episode is easily digestible at 30-40 minutes in length. The video content will be available on YouTube, and the audio from each episode will be available on Apple Podcasts and all major podcast platforms.
4) Pandemic production of the series is a nationwide, remote effort; Robert recorded the interviews in Burbank, CA, while other aspects of the show were being handled in Missouri and Vermont.
5) There is a personal connection with each guest: as well as having done their makeup, Robert also directed Valarie and Denise is the short film "Birth Mother;" Cici was the makeup artist on the first film Robert ever wrote/produced; Christopher has starred in two projects on which Robert was a key artist - the LA revival of "Women Behind Bars" and the digital series "Whata Lark;" and Robert earned a Daytime Emmy nomination for his work on Kit's "Eastsiders" series and was key makeup on his latest series, the forthcoming "Unconventional," on which Briana is one of the costars!
Look up on the stage: It's a peacock! It's a beach umbrella! No, it's Harry Styles in a pink tutu! Well it's Harry Styles in a pink tutu hosting Saturday Night Live to be exact. Thus bringing you the Freaky Friday moment you never know you needed, but did. Now when someone says you have "Nice long legs" you can produce this photo and confidently state "Well it's not Harry Styles in a pink tutu bending and pointing his toes nice long legs, but I'll take it!" That's the beauty of things like this, you can assign any narrative you choose to them 😉 For the record Styles does have nice long gams. Being built stocky I will never know the joy of having my legs being complimented as nice and long. They do get compliments though, for being nice or hot, depending on who is giving the adulation and why (if you get my drift, and I think you do.) So get Freaky with Harry this Friday, you know you want to, I know I do! Harry on IG - https://www.instagram.com/harrystyles/?hl=en
While on Facebook yesterday an app came through to plug in your birth year to find out what was the big horror movie at that time. So for the thrill and chill of it, I did just that. Well guess what came up from the great beyond? Roman Polanski's Repulsion starring Catherine Deneuve, oh alright, the year was 1965. Here is the synopsis: "A sex-repulsed woman who disapproves of her sister's boyfriend sinks into depression and has horrific visions of rape and violence." While I did not see it the year it was out, duh, I did happen to view it in my twenties, not knowing it was the big fright fest of the year of my birth. I knew that being born a snake was cool, now it has been solidified. It is time for another viewing of this classic, with me being older and wiser. While I liked it when I first saw it, I believe this is a film, like so many, that gets better with life experience. Besides who can resist the eternal beauty of Deneuve and the Directing mastery of Polanski? Yeah, I thought not...only four more days until Halloween!

There's something about Bella Thorne that I find fascinating. I am guessing it is in no small part due to her beauty, presence and that fact that Bella marches to her own damn beat! It's been a spell since we have had a fiery red headed star and Thorne, star of the Freeform show Famous in Love fills that void very well, thank you very much. So you just know when I saw this photo of her in a leopard print dress online I had to run it. Of course you did because that is what you are viewing, right here, right now. Enjoy & Happy Hump Day, indeed! Bella on Instagram: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu9nUWKJnhw
When I first saw this photo I went "WTF?!" to me, myself and I. I really couldn't tell who it was or what was going down with in it. Honestly, I still only sort of know now after reading about it. The pink lady in question is actress and beauty Bella Thorne of the Freeform show Famous in Love which I binge watched, it was OK, but Bella has what is referred to as the "it" factor and whether the show goes to a second season or not her career will go on. Now to the gentleman with the box on his head, apparently he is a musician who goes by the name of Blackbear. WTF?! as in Who The F#ck is that? I mean I suppose I could do a Google search on him and find out something that would help me solve that mystery, but I really don't have enough interest to do that at present. Perhaps I will later, or perhaps not. My feeling is if I have to do that to know anything about you, then your publicist and yourself are not doing a proper job and maybe, just maybe there isn't anything worth finding out. Yeah, I know sort of harsh, but unless I am going to interview him or have heard any music he has done....well, you get the picture. So until I decide to do a search on him, Blackbear will be a "whatever" to me, and maybe that is for the best. Bella on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bellathorne/?hl=en
I have a confession to make, I am a fan of Bravo'sMillion Dollar Listing New York. Yeah, yeah, yeah I know what some of you are thinking. But I also know what fans of the show are thinking, of which there are plenty: Ryan Serhant! C'mon you know that's why you watch. Ryan not only is the man, he is a man with a capital "M!!!" He's sexy, charming and oh so good looking, not to mention he has one of the best booty's ever! You could serve a meal off it, it's so fine, hell it could even be the main course.
Booty!
Ryan Serhant
What's that you say? There are two other men on the show?! Really? I've never noticed. You see the beauty of shows like these is you can attend to other things while they are on and only sit in rapt attention when you are truly interested. Now if they could excommunicate that "Weeeeeeeeeeee!" noise I hear while I am balancing my bank account I would truly appreciate it.

Grrrrrrrl Power Selfie!
Demi Lovato & Carrie Underwood
Since it is merely the 2nd day of 2016 and everyone is still New Year giddy I thought to myself: Hey, it's a good day to break out that old standby known as "Selfie Saturday." This selfie is full of so much charisma, beauty and talent it's gonna turn your giddy up to euphoric proportions. Why it's none other than Demi Lovato & Carrie Underwood! Via Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve With Ryan Seacrest. Say that three times fast! I must say all I ever knew about Demi until recent, was she was a child star. Well she is now one of my favorite performers and singers. With songs I love and the powerhouse performances she has been giving on various shows, including Rockin' Eve proves her to be one of the best! Carrie is a given she started out on top and has managed to stay there! Happy 2016 to two of my favorites!

An un-retouched image of one Ms. Cindy Crawford has been circulating the Internet since Friday the 13th.
I just caught it this ayem online. One werd...Hot! Marie Claire magazine which commissioned the shot that the leaked photo came from confirmed it's authenticity by stating: "It's real and it is gorgeous." Obviously I concur. Cindy has always been one of my favorite supermodels not only because of her beauty, she also has a down to earth accessibility to her. A warm personality and a brain to go with it. So nice to see how she really looks with out all the smoke and mirrors. Hey Cindy, you should never be retouched, just sayin'...
