My personal favorite was #2 , with the stop-motion and the fucking GORGEOUS model ( who goes by the name of Charlotte Carter-Allen ) . I am absolutely in love with it . It also rekindled my fondness for the song .

FRENCH CHICKS ..

Are amazing . As two up-and-coming ladies UFFIE and YELLE have demonstrated so well .

Not only are they talented , rising musicians  ( Yelle was on on MTV recently ) , but both model as well-- Uffie for Married to the Mob ( top ) and Yelle for Reebok ( bottom ) :

Here's some other pictures , Yelle top and Uffie bottom . 

Unfortunately I can't paste songs into here ,

but look them up :

www.myspace.com/uffie

www.myspace.com/iloveyelle

They both have a cute , electronic sound that is unique , fun and girly , while at the same time dancable and catchy .

Uffie sings in English and has very tongue-in-cheek lyrics , such as in her song " Dismissed " , which says :

" Oh please excuse me bitch but I fuck all you wannabes

it's just straight into that gossip , you don't have any fizz

a lot of people read your crap , this is web pollution

this is why I ain't complaining bitch over free promotions

if you just called me a cunt in some other word like ___

but after this you'll be the one sucking a whole lot of dicks

you brought my popularity ratings higher than ever

thank you , your whole bullshit comments have worked real clever !

before I answer you bitch , let me spit one question :

if you hate me so much , what's up with your obsession ?

I just do my things tight and I don't care about heights

so run back to your computer , your mum and your crack pipe "

Yelle sings in French , which I can't understand , but it's really cute and reminiscent of France Gall ( like the song " Teeny Weeny Boppy " ) .

Be sure to check em both out , they have a young , fresh , unique style and their music is fun , not to mention they're both up-and-coming with increasing popularity here in the US .

New NOOKA watches

So I saw these online and was like oooh , these are dope , right ? I mean I'd like to get one of these on my wrist ( or three ) . Too bad they're $130 to $140 a pop , depending on the style . But hey , if you've got the funds , by all means ...
