The Most Awesome Magazine
We “dropped” the September issue of 180 Magazine at New York Fashion Week last week, and I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I am going to toot all the live long day. Sure, I just edit the words in this fine publication, but as editor-at-large for the mag, I also help with...
Moment of Humiliating Vanity: 7×7′s Best Dressed Male
Click and enlarge if you dare I was featured in this month’s 7×7 Magazine as the best dressed male at the Ruffian Threads & Heirs Launch Party — which happened couple of months ago (it’s kind of old news but my ego told me to post it on my blog any way), I have to...
GQ jumps on the Manny Pacquiao Bandwagon
If it wasn’t official before, it’s official now. Filipino Golden Boy, Manny Pacquiao has carved his name into the pop cultural zeitgeist of the 21st century with an upcoming spread in the April 2010 issue of GQ. Photo credit: Mark Seliger Although his fight his past Saturday left much to be desired (but it wasn’t...
Richard Phillips makes celebs look like ’80s icons
Artist Richard Phillips recently created an exclusive editorial project for VMAN16 that featured celebs that have, at one time or another, been the object of a teen girl’s fanatical affection. The five paneled piece includes portraits of Chace Crawford, Zac Efron, Leonardo DiCaprio, Justin Timberlake, and Robert Pattinson.. The pieces will be featured at the...
‘New Moon’ takes magazine covers hostage
Just in case you didn’t know, New Moon comes to theaters Friday (Nov. 20) – and December issues of magazines are here to remind us. Constantly remind us. It’s a good thing because I was starting to forget. The New Moon threesome (a.k.a. Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, and Robert Pattinson) crammed themselves on to the...
I’m not as pretentious as I thought
I finally had the opportunity to sit down with my latest copy of Details and in an instance of kismet, I turned straight to an article titled, “63 Signs You May Be a Pretentious Tool”. I love it when Details does stuff like this. It makes me gauge my doucheosity and the article is a...
NYLON gets BUSTED!
So here’s the deal: Nylon Guys had a story about indie/commercial boy wonder, Joseph Gordon Levitt. It was a very brief and interesting interview – but there was a little mistake in the piece: One reader decided to call them out on this: DAMN! Way harsh! I know how it is to have readers call...
Solange and her ‘Sandcastle Disco’
What exactly is a ‘Sandcastle Disco?’ Anyway, the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly suggested I download Solange’s latest song, so I decided to check out the video first: I was trying to debate on what the video reminded me of. A Capri Sun commercial? A commercial for a new Elizabeth Arden fragrance? A new line...
Am I just really ahead of GQ?
So in this month’s issue of GQ, I saw a piece on Janelle Monae. They are just NOW putting a piece on the funkatronic R&B artist whereas I wrote something on her back in May (click here, here and here for proof) AND I was listening to her before that. I just wanted to take...

The three best things about the new 90210
…okay, maybe there might be more than three great things about this new 90210 spin-off (try 10). First off, there’s the the remix of the original theme song: OLD VERSION: NEW VERSION: At first, when I heard it I was thinking, “OH NO THEY DIDN’T!” Then I realized that the modernized introductory rockin’ guitar riff...

Why I hate ‘The Hills’
I got my latest issue of Entertainment Weekly and lo and behold, that gal from “The Hills” is on the cover. As soon as I saw that shit, I nearly vomited. Nonetheless, I gave my favorite entertainment magazine the benefit of the doubt and opened my mind to reading the article on her. By the...

One step behind Entertainment Weekly and GQ
Okay, so based on the previous post, you know I am an avid reader of Entertainment Weekly and GQ. I have also pitched them articles many times, which have been often met with politely curt rejections or no response at all. But in the latest issues I saw two articles in each that I swear...
