OMG.

In a 4 days span I will turn 27.

Celebrating in California (well, actually my birthday will be spent in Las Vegas, but that’s another story entirely ;)) and then spending time in between Los Angeles (our house!!! Long time not to see!!!), San Francisco (parental house of K… well, parental CASTLE of K ;)) and COACHELLA!!!!!!!

I can’t wait to taste all Coachella fun and Radiohead twice!!!

can't wait!!!

Sadly as you know no Coldplay because I have to get back in Europe (Sweden) for work duties but it’s okay, I prefer to watch them in Europe than in Los Angeles anyway (the crowd is often dead in the USA).

I will see them soon enough no problem: my tickets made somebody else very happy 😉

The lovely thing is that in Coachella (where we will go with security… *sigh*… I love being in Usa but to wander around with that still make me so unconfortable…)we will be kinda dressin up.

And… I will turn my hair into a raven braids basket 😉 I LOVE that!!! It will feel like a three days of disguising party 😉 (x 2), turning us in some sort of hobo/hippies with very expensive yet casual clothes (which is the definition of Coachella hipsters… they are actually way more coordinate and predictable that they’d like to think, so to try to be intentionally like a parody will be fun!!!).

So… TODAY IS THE NIGHT OF THE CHAMPIONS!!!!!

The Day is Upon Us

I prefer to write now and not after the game because Barça-Milan makes me giddy and shaky and overloaded already…

I know we have small chances but I want to spend my hopes well so… let me live this dizzy moment of awaiting in purity.

I don’t wanna make predictions.

I just wanna… live it and support my team.

Any case, to have witnessed Messi and Barcellona last game in San Siro was AWESOME.

A game of great magic 🙂 that last week really made me shine and be super happy 🙂

It was an awesome week because we celebrated also my Margherita’s pregnancy!!!

OMG (number 2) I am gonna be a AUNT! (not genetically, but trust me it won’t count… that baby of her is gonna be SUPER SPOILED by Missus Z, no doubts there!).

Just I hope she will fly carefully to California because I don’t want to cause her stress (and she will join us in Los Angeles, not in Las Vegas, just to avoid chaos).

I am so happy… I have no will to become a mother any soon (you know it and so does Karim) because I have too much to accomplish yet before I can think of raising another soul but the fact she is makes me overjoyed, really!!!

I love the fact her family will expand and I think she’s gonna be a wonderful mum.

Who knows maybe in her new spare time she will update that blog of her that she hasn’t in MONTHS?

Pregnancies makes people bored and get a lot of empty times so…

I keep posting material for her and Serena but it seems they just want it to watch it more than to share it? 😉

They must be upload some soon because in these months Maroon 5 have lost another founding member and are becoming the 5-piece Britney Spears of “new” pop (I cringe and cry… the fact that Jesse is gone, just as I wrote last time, makes me SICK because he was the art in Maroon 5 and now all that’s left is Adam’s ego, given that James is using his creative bits in JJAMZ more than ever… and they are actually sounding GREAT!).

I mean… Look:

what is actually left of them? Adam's ego? *sigh*

And of course, the other news that is up still today is that, AGAIN like I totally already guessed well in last post, Adam and Anne split  just yesterday… except that I am mostly positive that split happened a lot before:

The best couple I ever had feeling for just split... but maybe not exactly "JUST"?

I am feeling almost bipolar about this.

In many ways… As everybody knows, I was not convinced by their appearance together at the Grammies: even in this pic up above, you see Anne clearly awkward next to Adam, and Adam looks like he just has to have her there.

They were used to look so perfect at one another and with one another but there, there was already no sign of affection at all; like they had to be a couple for the world to see but without feeling it.

I also had questions going on after this Howard Stern interview: if you just listen to it, all seems fine and funny (except that is very rare that a relationship portrayed on Stern lasts… ask Becky Ginos or Jonah Hill’s longtime ex galpal), but I could actually watch it on Stern tv and again they looked just so different than in 2011… even in the pictures showing Adam arriving at the interview the day before on Anderson, you can see inside the car a woman with her arms strongly and protectively crossed at her tummy, in the typical defensive position of someone who’s upset. That person was most surely Anne (head is not visible) and all body signs pointed to Splitsville already (Marghe, next time don’t ask me to analyze pictures that you bring up: you know I am more than Holmes-like with that: body language has no secrets to me).

AND their split, no matter if currently the more Adam does things, the more I get mad at him (so much talent, so much wasted in too many idiot stuff), no matter if I know that’s insane and stupid…

Well their split makes me sad.

Not really “sad” in a deep way… just “sad” in that empathic way you feel for a character in a movie I guess.

Or maybe I am properly sad. Stupidly because celebrities and splitting up always are the rule and not the exception and they were never there to ditch their careers for their love anyway, none of them two.

But the truth in me is that I wanted for real to see them form a family though: I will forever think they could have had the most gorgeous babies EVER in Hollywood.

I for real (and practically as soon as they started be a thing)  thought Anne was not only the most beautiful girl he ever dated, but I felt she had the right personality to make him a man and not an ungrown kid with ego troubles still at 33.

I was wrong.

I am now convinced they actually split in January like tabloids claimed but decided to avoid the mess of telling it having the Grammies and SI events lined up already.

I hope they are actually in good terms as spoken but again… good terms mean nothing at all in the end when you weren’t friends before; you won’t become friends after that’s for sure.

I wish Anne to find joy; I unfollowed her on Twitter just because to see her (and now she is back having the icon she had at the start of her story with Adam) act and talk and be cute makes me sadder that she won’t be the mother of his children.

Make freely fun of me… I know that is STUPID by my side but what can I do?

That was my wish.

A childlike wish for children off of a wonderfully well genetically paired couple (but they were so rarely seeing one another so they had little time to practice the sex that making kids would require… another sign that no relationship could survive over).

*sigh*

All that said, one could claim this way next Maroon 5 album will sound like Songs About Jane because Adam will be full of feelings but…

I don’t have high stakes there because the HORRIFYING THING has happened: they have let OTHER PEOPLE write along them!!!

This is almost WORST than The Fuckery  Voice sign up (okay… not “almost”… that is WORSE!).

What kind of serious band doesn’t fully write their material????

Which true feelings can be sung, if it’s not the one who sings or play writing fully the songs that depict them?

I am appalled.

At least I can forever treasure this gem that was still produced when Adam was writing all of his lyrics by himself… the amazing Gotten which has now a video that benefits the homeless youth of Los Angeles.

This song is majestic… too bad the songs that will be included in Overexposed won’t ever reach this purity, being not fully an effort of the band, but a patch up of Blanco/MaxMartin/Ryan Tedder (the old fan in me wishes somehow I will be wrong there, but the music lover in me and the purist of art knows there’s no way art can survive such a mistake).:

Adam’s voice can be so perfect… even on the Hunger Games soundtrack you can see that and hear the magic but… by now he’s so taken trying to be this “superstar” he just can’t see straight anymore.

I am sure among all the new “hookups” he’s about to have, one will be with his partner in the American Horror Story role he’s now gotten confirmed.

Look how I will be once again correct, just like I was about Anne and Jesse and Maroon 5 losing their dignity in full selling completely out following Adam’s ego “lead”.

(You know that when I write all this the old fan in me is desperate, right? Because trust me I am and I wish I could just refuse them in full now that they have let me so down, but I still can’t fully cut ties, because all my youth has been spent with their music and his damn magical voice… 😦 )

Okay, I better focuse on the fact my friends are arriving and MILAN NEEDS US!!!!!

That thought is my everything now!!!

Cross fingers for us?

I mean, I know it should be illegal to wish Messi and Barcelona to lose because they are the best of the bests now but I am a Milan lover and I can’t do any differently so….

SCREAM ALONG::: MILAN, GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Oh, and Happy Easter everybody.

When this month of life abroad ends, we will meet again 😉

Hugs, Missus Z. 🙂

Of course, I had to come online and post a blog TODAY.

We woke up around 7 am as usual, and we found our phones pulsating in colors like a disco ball hit by a flashy rainbow (we have different set ups for our iPhones and BBs, and the light that comes is determined by the people sending us texts/video-messages/mails).

We feared at first something bad had happened (we set phones with no sound at night) but then we thought if that was the case, somebody would have called at our HOUSE and that sound would have been heard.

So it had to be a good news, we realized with relief.

We opened our four devices and more or less it was an endless series of missed calls and texts reading:

THEY KILLED OSAMA!!!!

THEY GOT HIM AND SERVED HIM!!!

WHOOOOOOO-HOOOO!!!

We immediately phoned Karim’s parents.

You know… well, his family PROPERLY fought that man these years.

From the HQs.

It has been immediately intense for my baby.

He lost friends in the Twin Towers (remember that night last year when I had to console him mutely just due to a documentary we were seeing at night prior to NBA games? You must… I will certainly NEVER forget that night) and after that, also a couple during the subsequently declared wars (I can’t call wars “peace operations”, sorry… a war is a war and no fancy names can change its status).

People celebrating outside White House the news that US force killed Osama Bin Laden

We have an extremely complex and not easy view of all this that arose after 9/11, and the most amazing thing is that we realized we had even way before we actually met (and that is an issue that can cause way more than a simple tension in a relationship… let alone for people as complicated as K&I).

We know it was inevitable to war it up after that… but we still convinced war is never the answer to anything, unless for you “answer” means “way to be all dead soon”.

No matter who *wins*, war has never winning people on its count: only dead ones.

But yeah, the death of Osama Bin Laden is a great relief.

Even though we are completely aware JUST because of it, the world will immediately see his heirs trying to establish their status by attempting I fear MORE than one major move.

So yeah… I just expect terrorism to escalate pretty soon.

Still… this had to be done.

Hitler had to be dead.

Osama had to be dead.

I hope soon Berlusconi follows – a natural, and not imposed – way to be dead too (there, I said it. Italy needs to be freed from him, but not violently. He’s old and I still hope a natural death occurs as soon as possible.)

It’s a very HUGE turmoil of feelings for me and Karim (especially him, who even served during the war of terrorism) today.

Somehow, I feel like this was a further gift to mankind from Pope John Paul the Second who just got beatified (technically, the same day Osama got killed).

Although I am always battling some of the most narrow-minded concepts of Church, I have to say I have always admired and felt Karol Wojtyla, and that he always got me with his speech against war, when war seemed the most fashionable thing around.

Trust me: you know how cynical I can be: I am not a pacifist for the sake of it.

I’m no flower power at all.

My choice about it comes from philosophy and reasoning: in times when armies can erase the entire humanity, to try for peace is the ONLY WAY TO SURVIVE.

I know war is the most productive industry EVER, since EVER… but if we don’t stick in our minds we can’t ever win if we don’t ALL win, and look out for a way to comprehend one another and not fight one another, we will only get one step closer each day to the complete demise of EVERYONE.

There is no party there… no party who can just win.

Ideograms for PEACE and PROSPERITY

My choice for peace and understanding is a strategical one, not a naive one.

But all that said…

let’s honor the victims who fought in clarity and purity of soul, let’s pray for innocents that got killed on EACH side, because they weren’t taking sides at all in their innocence, and just let’s COOPERATE FOR PEACE.

Actively.

Terrorism isn’t dead, because to scare people is the easiest way to dominate them.

Easiest until mankind won’t step out of fears and embrace brain and heart to the fullest.

Fear works for half-developed humans.

Fully developed humans don’t fear: they try to THINK to overcome fears, and they understand fear cannot rule a good way to live.

Aggressive is not fearless: aggressive is a companion to fearful.

But sure I am happy this whole thing happened in Obama’s presidency run.

Man deserved this hard-to-obtain success (ehi, Donald Trump… please jump off your skyscraper before trying to say again the stupidest things on this event too… IDIOT).

I chose this song to underline my mood, in honor of all those fallen for mankind’s lowest instincts:

And now back to more down-to-Earth and personal events.

Getting near…

GETTING NEAR!!!

My Boat's times in Genova, April 2011

Absolutely unfazed by the fact a balding guy married a smiling chick (yeah, the MARRIAGE OF THE CENTURY… don’t think it brought much luck to his mother’s one the fact all of the world stared in awe watching the whole thing, right?), this further month passes away bringing MYSELF closer to *the day*.

Lotta stuff to be prepared…

Lotta emotions, all cute and fine and lovely, and to be honest we’re not a single bit relentless about this.

K&I are very focused and calm.

They’ve tried to make us question the Kyoto (yep, that’s it… we picked up Kyoto in the end) location due to the Earthqwake – Nuclear scare but it’s OUR marriage.

We want to get married in Japan and there we will.

You love us?

You’ll be moved there by our will to have you near to us that day.

If you don’t feel like sharing our day, be prepared to consequences (okay it sounds at once ungrateful and cocky but trust me when we made this speech to our people it sounded very compassionate and good-to-listen-to… ;)).

Love to eat facing Milan Duomo in Spring

I don’t think really we will have troubles with Parades for NBA to be taken into spotlight before our big month… in fact, we don’t reach out to USA until July (screw Ravinia Festival and anything even remotedly related to, and BRING IT ON GLASTONBURY instead!!!!).

Lakers have been painful to watch to during playoffs and although I really hope as a fan things may change I don’t see odds favourable to us at all.

But I know we gotta take on the Mavs in second round of the playoffs because I can’t stand Mark Cuban AT ALL.

I respect the Mavs… I don’t respect their owner (because he’s a DICK).

Too bad I can’t criticize Lakers will as I am also half performing this year as a fan (not for my responsibility though).

In fact doctors still ban me from not getting enough night sleep after my Labyrinthitis crisis, so I can wake up in the middle of nights ONLY to catch the second halves of games.

It sucks.

It makes me feel half a fan…*sigh*.

But you can’t play with health can you?

Kobe also disappointed me with a gay slur that luckily he managed to *explain* (not really—) or at least decently ask forgiveness for in a video and some partnering made-up moves.

Lakers Orchids in our balcony terrace

Still KOBE… WTF?

Then of course Kobe still Kobe and Still my hero for the way he play and he’s not human like the rest of us…

That man is such an inspiration of strength and will, darn 😉

At least Milan is doing well 😉

Too bad my two sporty passion can never go hand in hand as for results lately but ehi, at least I have always something positive going on, haven’t I?

I’m very up to my sport game too and you know sunny times for me means mostly tennis court battles!!!

I still love the way I focuse into tennis gestures and I compare them with good sex.

My fantasy runs miles you know when it’s about sex but really some things that are not sex reminds me a lot of it

Then the output of sporty games easily always translate ANYWAY into something sexual FOR REAL in my world (you know me, don’t you?) 😉

April has been gracious to me a lot: we have spent some of our weekends finally getting acquainted with my Boat again!!! (love love love it), and then on the Easter time we went to my Florence house, but Karim’s parents and mine also reached to the amazing town (on their own though… we need our spaces free, ourselves… and then we stay naked at home way too much to have our parents rounding nearby… LMAO!).

The boat times and the Florence times BOTH have seen our crew to join us for some clubbing too.

I am amazed the way the bonds we share with my friends and Karim’s friends are completely natural and easy to go.

It’s beautiful to be surrounded by so much care and love.

And then… we just rule the world, don’t we? 😉

In Genova we got a promo copy at the club of AMAZING latest Foo Fighter’s record… that you gotta BUY ASAP:

There is a lot of music going on in my ears (and NO, until that awful thing that involves Adam still going on, I still completely untouched and not listening to any of Maroon5. I can’t take it. The Voice for me – and sure friends have tried to force me watch it – is a shame that can’t be approved, and it never will), and what is amazing is that now on Twitter I have MORE than 2050 followers (WOW!!!! I have added some due following myself to and now I follow 43… you get how AMAZING the difference is???) so I can spread my music appreciation posts so widely all over and wait for some advice from people too!!!

I love the way music is universally speaking 🙂

Music will always be my best friend… ALWAYS.

My consideration for its power is the same that I give to art in general because music IS art.

And Art as Beauty rules my entire world.

Anyway don’t worry… My friends over the other blog will give you updates also on The Voice of Fuckery soon (I landed them links so you will see that thing that I protected my eyes and soul from seeing. I don’t wanna be corrupted by second rated tv… or by tv at all. I try to take the best care of my brain cells, thank you) ;).

I will get back to my appreciation of M5 and Adam as soon as that thing will end.

I miss their music?

SURE, how couldn’t I?

This is just a PART of my Maroon 5 record Collection

Look, these are the 45 albums/specials/VideoPackages I got of them and ONLY in my iTunes: there are more than an entire day of ALBUM/EP/VIDEOEPs music and that doesn’t count the amount of physical recordings (ALL THEY EVER PUT OUT from Kara’s Flowers till now, and ALL their collaborations EVER made) that I have of them, which were these (see the video I made for The Way You Look Tonight below and you get HOW MUCH I am a fan of them) ONE and half year ago (they have grown since then with all that they have put out after that).

I even have special Asian versions of all their music. Do you really think it’s easy for me to NOT listen to my favorite band?

It is.

But I can’t cope with the disappointment they served me with and then I have over 1000 albums now. I can survive some months without their ones, and don’t feel bad for it, since they didn’t care about choosing a tv reality show over playing live for the fans who built them up.

Their choice.

My choice.

And we’re all entitled to feel fine about them, both me and them, of course.

They think music is only entertainment and shouldn’t be a big deal; while for me music is first and foremost great Art and SURE it MUST be taken seriously, thing that I do.

I might update at least on Anne though 😉 Because she is adorable

I am just sad that in the maintime I am NOT covering M5 and Adam, I miss the chance to speak about lovely Anne V…. I miss talking about lovely Russian Fairy, but it’d be hard to talk about her and NOT about her boyfriend (they still best couple EVER in the celeb world to me, and I keep being a total sucker and rooting for them to procreate perfect babies together, for the sake of mankind’s next generations’ BEAUTY) so I am forced to. Maybe though I can prepare a couple of musical videos with her latest working duties… I may soon… She still one of the cutest things ever and so sweet and kind. She’s an all-overly delicious human being, whose beauty is just ONE of her best qualities. ;).

But see… my principle about being true to what I deeply feel and see can’t be changed.

I don’t kiss asses, and I am proud of the way I am.

That’s why until Summer starts sneak in fully I won’t mention “that thing”, “that man”, and “all around involved”.

With this I hope I have answered to the mails I got asking me why I wasn’t covering The Voice, Adam Levine and Maroon 5 anymore since a while.

Yesterday Party Time

I can’t deviate from the value I give to music, as simple as that.

And I HATE reality tv and the way reality tv has transformed music scene into a sham.

It’s clear why I won’t cover M5 or Adam while they keep perpetrating what to my eyes and perception is a real big big big mistake.

I will get back to them when this won’t be an issue for me to deal with anymore.

Be calm.

And respect my choice at least since THIS is my house (I.E.: stop flaming this blog mail or my twitter: I anyway couldn’t care less of what you have to say to me, when it comes to things that belong ONLY to me) and this blog was created to “speak about what I find valuable and great, as I live my life“.

Next?

Next topic. Sure… this has taken way too much space today 😉

Just this past night, after practically Milan has won Serie A again (about timeeeee!!!) we had a great great party over Karim’s loft (it seems all so far away after today’s news…) 😉 and we actually met really nice new people thankx to our friends.

We missed our friends this weekend cos we went alone at my Garda Lake House to just… erm… well, doing our business in peace.

We love our crew, we really do… but sometimes we need to stay alone and just stay naked all time.

😉 You know us (and me especially) 😉

My dad last Thursday at Rotary dinner (EXTENDED BOREDOME) was joking with me and K. about our “creative sexual ways” (I am this open and natural about sex thanx to the fact I have parents who never pushed me at considering sex anything more or less than the totally most natural and awesome thing on Earth… and yeah my parents still bangin one another clearly and this is the greatest thing a daughter/son could understand. Sorry Freud…) 😉 and at some point some old fart came over and gave a sight of reproaching (mind your business, I am sure your “oh-so-holy” ass has betrayed your *lovingly* wife behind her back…), without saying a word.

My father said to Karim:

“Never try to become THAT way with my daughter or she’s gonna kick your ass.”.

I love my dad endlessly.

And so does his future son-in-law ;).

Karim in fact had a very gentle but cuttingly fierce way to answer (with a gracious humor) that as I love to ride horses, this time I might have found one ride where the horse ain’t that easy to be driven away from the road HE decides (which is true, and also the reason I am actually gonna marry him… me the person who had over 250 partners and never seemed interested to settle down AT ALL ;)).

My dad nodded in approval.

Colour the world for PEACE and let it blossom

I know I am way too lucky to have such awesome people around me.

I know.

And I appreciate it particularly today, which is anyway a day of deep reflection and thoughtfulness.

So folks… I guess I am done already because I am very tired of writing AND it’s almost time to go off the lab having lunch.

As soon as the phones stop ringing… (whole world is in need to talk these hours… it’s understandable).

Wish you all a great time and a shining May.

We are ready to travel a lot soon again, after all.

And traveling also emphasizes the fact the whole world is interconnected and that we need understanding to not make it blow.

It’s OUR responsibility to make the world a better place FOR EVERYONE.

Because it’s the only way we can keep on living, let’s face it 😉

Let’s end with the obvious musical choice for today:

PEACE.

Good morning and sorry for the long absence.

Adam and lovely Frankie on greengrass

I know…

I’m late but you know what?

On top of all the planned staying-aways from blogs (due to holidays, schedules, and all that relates to our marriage organization) the past week I have also been plastered with LABYRINTHITIS (no kidding, I face another week of therapy at home, and that actually has forced me to pull out of my planned end of the month trip to New York: you can guess I’m not happy about any of this)… so be kind and realize there’s really a lot going on for this gal and blogging can/will be done in excerpts of time.

Ehi!!!

Combined with schedule and illness (snort…) I have also been forced to kinda miss AGES of Lakers games!!! Milan games!!!

You know it’s serious when even my sporty passions gotta step a bit aback.

Adorable Anne V in fashion magazines

This year is a very BIG year for me… I have such schedules that I have resolved to introduce into my life an element to avoid it to become untakeable.

So I have a personal assistant since last week (luckily he timed perfectly with my illness, so that my working tasks haven’t been completely forced to reprogramming, thank God…): he’s called Carlo, he’s kind, capable and gorgeous and he’s wonderfully gay (I actually decided for him among candidates when he was able to confess that in a very manly, totally natural, and even casual speech with me at the third go-through for the job).

The fact that I need even a personal assistant to survive furtherly keeps telling you that blogging really ain’t in my first priorities these days (though I still like doing it, when I have time), and if you follow my Twitter (also aside in this page) you are aware of what I am talkin about.

I’m trying to do my best with a day of mere 24 hours (well, while ill I spent most of that sleeping, but that’s because medicines are heavy, I can’t watch tv, and even music gotta be played really low… I can’t stay standing yet, only laying or seated, and of course no physical activity of ANY kind is allowed so in other words… boredom realm for real!!!)

Divine creature in his patio

It’s all I can say 😉

Oh… and I miss sex a lot.

Surprised there, I bet…

I also hate that anytime I fall ill I shrink and I become all skin and bones (and I don’t even have Chris Martin serenading me Yellow… well, actually Karim played it for me on piano the other day ;))

Can’t wait to feel better mainly for that (Karim btw has been an awesome nurse these days and also my friends have been all supportive and they came visiting me in floods… I love you crew!)

I will try to encompass the chronicles of this past month the best I can – given that I reduce chronicles to music basically, cos the sports that I can talk about is secondhand, which I hate in my current state- , but first, and very strangely compared to my usual behaviours, I share first the videos that i made lately.

You know from my previous post that I TOTALLY CAN’T STAND was quite let down regarding the idea Maroon 5 have had to make Hands all Over a single and get the video duties to that criminal who ridiculed the great original video of Misery (that’s just the worst ever video in the whole world, and I mean that stupid cartoonish cheesy horrifying UK version of it of course ).

So I decided that in My YouTube the first video homage of the year would have been the awesome cover of Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” the guys did on Stern back in September (see the raleted post in this blog):

But you know also why I felt betrayed about the choice of pickin Hao as a single.

I WANTED STUTTER (the first three singles again, should have been 1) Stutter; 2) I Can’t Lie; 3) Just A Feeling or How; 4) Misery… THAT would have constituted way more of a positive bandwagon for the album… but that is gone by now… you know my opinion there 😉 if you read this blog don’t you?).

So I will have Stutter.

In Stop Motion.

With Karim and Meli (angel Meli!!!!! THANK YOU) drawing for me (my illness will slow down the preparation for it but March still the date to put it out).

I have a new set of tricks to train my Director attitude with.

And I am so into this all… I created a TRAILER for what will be my next YouTube Upload (by the way, Maroon 5 just shot the video for the fourth single, Never Gonna Leave This Bed, in Los Angeles… you will learn about it later in the updates ;)):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

And since we are at it… of course (just like it happened with their real video for NGLTB …) also MY female lead will be Anne 😉 becoming a drawing like the rest of the band and mostly Adam.. in Stop Motion.

Talkin about Anne… look how beautiful she is for the Louis Vuitton Resort Campaign Spring Summer 2011 ;):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

Okay… I have been toying with video softwares, you see 😉

Actually I also created a patchwork with stills of the incoming Never Gonna Leave This Bed video.

More shots and actual press videos of the making of will be posted later in this update (they are so cute cuddling one another… awww… the perfect couple they are!!)but for now take this and see all the fun that I am having with this patches (lol!):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

I’m properly like a kid with tech stuffs you know me 😉

Everything new on the matter to me is like Play-Doh: gotta put my hands on it and morph it into something that fits my creativity 😉

A little collage dedicated to the hotness that is Adam Levine. Enjoy 😉

During the holiday time when Karim family visited they were really shocked about the way I am at once completely tech master and also the way I can be traditionalists (yep, I can prepare homemade tortellini and cook pretty well, and teach that too ;)), at which Karim just said that is “my way to be Tao” ;).

Totally spot on.

Oh, let me add momentarily that I wish my guru Steve Jobs the fastest ever recovery: Steve, we’re with you.

I’m a tekkie and a proud Apple-ist.

I still haven’t the faintest idea on how to organize this post (Karim helps with typing cos I can’t yet obviously, while dear Fede, who will substitute me in the NY trip, put together the video updates under my requests… thank you guys ;)), so I guess I’ll just step back and start where I left you on the verge of Christmas.

LONG shot 😉

I know.

We left the boys and A Home for the Holidays was ready to be broadcasted: so there you go, enjoy it folks!

Red fits Adam so well (as much as it shines on Anne, too!).

Maroon5 have also launched a very interesting Photo contest that could allow you to pretty much roadie with the band on tour: check this especially and see the video (click on the image to jump on the page with video):

Send and image of LOVE and roadie along with Maroon 5

Trust me if I weren’t taken with that small thing that is marriage (…) I would ave tried it 😉 and probably so would have Karim 😉

Talkin about trips and who knows… marriage, the guys have added another Russian date to their schedule, in the amazing town of the Hermitage Museums. *sigh*. I’d love to check that one!!!

Adam and Anne shopping and loving it up

Adam has also been vocal in his funny way about his new years resolutions (and ask me why again the word marriage comes to mind… lol!).

Talkin about that, the two lovebirds we all love spent all the Xmas times together (awwww) and even though Los Angeles weather was strangely bad (but there have been moment of blissful sun and rainbows even!) they managed to make even rain feel absolutely romantic, as you’ve seen and as you will keep see.

Oh, man they melt me so fully!!!

During holidays beside Adam and Anne James for instance had time to practice with JJAMZ, and I can’t wait for that record in full (of course I’ll grab it).

Our favorite couple. Well, mine for sure 😉

Sweet Anne managed to have of course ANOTHER Xmas tree in Los Angeles too, and she tweeted an adorable picture of her stay.

Oh… yes: I keep melt of course 😉

Beside the bliss of their time together, and we all can so clearly see how much Adam shines in happiness any time Anne is around him, the festive time didn’t prevent our guy from tweeting some of what REALLY makes me adore him.

Xmas game with grandpy and Emma Zerner (lets not mention results...)

He vented against Sarah Palin a couple of times, and thank God, because that woman (??) is really a threat for EVERYONE (and sadly that got even truer around start of teh year, whena Deputy was shot in Arizona after her “advice”…), and his lively liberally oriented (well, he’s more an anarchist at times, but definitely more left than center than right…ALWAYS) soul couldn’t hold his despise any longer (I suppose he was watching Fox News at those times…).

What always makes me laugh is how his fans get surprised by his political beliefs.

Erm… Adam’s family especially from Patsy’s side is a well known liberal think-tank.

At Lakers Xmas game... shame... GAME. Game 😉

The Aunt he honors in the notes of Midnight Miles was the wife of his Uncle Timothy Noah, and whomever reads about politics in USA knows who he is.

Sure Adam may grow wary of politics (for disillusions) most of the times, but SURELY he would NEVER be a Republican, much less of the dull and idiot Palin’s type.

I love his political takes so much… Karim properly cheers at any of them (obviously).

That tweet saved him from my reproaches after they unveiled properly the Hands All Over video (I still can’t believe what they did with that… *sigh*).

BTW, certainly Anne had more fun at the movies with her pal than Adam did watchin Lakers getting destroyed on Xmas by the Meat. SIGH 😉 (He later joined her).

Vintage smirk in the dark

Those days they also started to share that they will play at this year SuperBowl: first as part of an event the day before, then properly at the Fox PreGame event along Keith Urban on February 6th (awesome!!!!), namely the SuperBowl Tailgate Party.

Talkin about incoming (well, that one is really a long way to come yet, it’s in JUNE) music+sports event, Maroon 5 will also play for those who play GOLF this year (and I might just check that, because one of Karim’s cousin is a PRO ;)).

Well, I’ll try my best to be there, accordingly with all the schedules of that period of course.

Of course 😉

After Xmas time it was time for the lovely couple and the whole of Maroon 5 to move to Caribe for the planned performances in Santo Domingo and Trinidad and Tobago.

Adam took it very “Indiana Jones-y” 😉

In the maintime, gotta say I LOVED the frankness of James in the Billboard article about the underperformance of HAO album (you know who and what I blame for it… with different singles and promotion plan, the album would have been a smash as it’d deserved, but now is late to re-adjust, and anyway it still a wonderful album).

Their honesty is always so pure and loveable.

BTW, Anne probably would have liked more sun to test her new glasses with in Santo Domingo… still, she managed to be adorable even under clouds.

Arriving in Santo Domingo

She’s naturally lovely.

The gig has been wonderful and here I prepared another video out from pictures… Enjoy:

Out of the beauty of the gig (universally reckoned) another really amazing thing was the way the band could actually be at ease in the places around.

I love that anytime it happens.

Another wonderful thing was that they moved out USING U2 airplane.

Adam was certainly happy on U2 plane 😉

REALLY 😉

How cool is that (rhetoric question)? 😉

Steamy Adam Levine. Yes please...

They moved from Santo Domingo to Trinidad and beside another lovely gig finally it seems Anne and Adam could enjoy some beach time (you know, those glasses they did buy in LA days before had to be usedsee previous post ;)).

I just love anytime they tweet about food: two very slender people who truly love eating the way they do are refreshing! (now I don’t know about eating shark, Sharky, but I guess it can be tasty… I GUESS ;))

Also the other guys could enjoy the beauty of landscape and lots of other pretty things (aww).

Gig was coooooooool as well like we can imagine (check photos HERE) 😉

I often think how their systems gotta be trained well with jet-lags and stuff, because swirling that much cannot be easy on your body.

I know what I’m talkin about ;).

From Trinidad they had to move to Atlantic City where they were scheduled to perform for New Years Eve and those days (see also the Billboard interview) it seemed that the verbose one was James (I never complain there… I love how bright and full of composure he always is):

Jimmy V for Atlantic City press

While we are at interviews, read also this cute one from the same press tour:

Maroon 5 work hard as a group: good to know 😉

After reading things not mine (tsk… tsk… ;)) let’s roll and notice how the gigs crossing from 2010 into 2011 marked the end of the LONG time of Anne and Adam together in row.

One day I'll run out of adjectives... and moans... 😉

Before the return of the lovebirds into their privateness though they sure had a great great feisty time, you bet (stashes involved shouldn’t surprised a soul there, right?) 😉

Gal had to start workin again, but it’s so sweet what they said about hoping the 2011 would have just to be as great as 2010 for them to be happy (and since professionally we do know Adam wished 2010 would have been better, it’s easy to understand what – WHO – made his 2010 totally unforgettable, right? Awwwww).

Now if only they’d stop watching trash tv… *sigh*.

Okay with How To Train Your Dragon but Jersey Shore??? Jersey FUCKIN Shore????

Adam, Anne… why? It’s so… irking… O__O (and no way I will link to the tweet of Adam about Jersey Shore because it almost made me puke. Holy… HOLY. JUST NO).

While Anne was getting back into her schedule, boys were heading back to sunny lovely Cali (well, maybe not straight sunny immediately as they went back…), and James for instance was intellectually ready… while Adam… well… Adam was being Linus.

Not the one of Radio Deejay (this is for Italians).

Btw, Anne in between tweets to Adam’s peeps let us know in some way why lately she did not carry her Pomeranian along while visiting and staying in LA… lol.

What was Anne heading to? You are about to see some 😉

First gal changed her look and got back to BANGS!!!! (yes… welcome back in our club Russian Fairy… you look awesomely pure with bangs… totally glorious m’am!!!).

She is beautiful. End of it.

You can see her shots from Paris offices of Elite Models (awwww) and then if you wonder what she used the bangs for as first move of the year…

She's totally elfic like. Awesome.

She worked it out for Pepe Jeans S/S collection ads, ladies and gentlemen!!! (GORGEOUS).

Enjoy the campaign:

Anne V and Jon Kortajarena for Pepe Jeans S/S 2011 ad campaign.

She’s just perfect. Perfect beauty. Perfect.

And that is not the only thing she was working for those days (I can’t wait to learn!!!).

As Anne was shining in what she truly does so well, modeling, Adam and James were spending some relaxing time and prepping for rockin Las Vegas at Aria HAZE Nightclub.

But before that, read the 25things you may did not know about Adam from US Magazine (hint: we DID already know ALL of them, didn’t we? I mean… they’re pretty common acknowledge among the longtime peeps by now?):

US Magazine 25 things you did not know about Adam Levine

I bet the maximum curiosity arose about Gene (Hong), because before Adam actually never so openly mentioned him (you might recall him in an episode of Mariah Carey’s hubby Nick Cannon show…?).

And keeping on with Magazines… he was also featured on Men’s Fitness February (the one with Ashton Kutcher on cover, that I obviously bought):

Adam Levine in Men's Fitness Feb. 2011

But don’t think I have no idea what you’re waiting for.

Let’s put it this way: the day THIS thing got online in the news, Adam Levine became a worldwide Twitter Trending Topic and as it totally should be the naturality and my blog got almost 1800 clicks in one day, because people were googling “Adam Levine NAKED“.

Yes.

Adam Levine naked for Cosmopolitan Uk. Hands provided by Anne V 😉

It happened that the images of Adam Cosmopolitan UK spread for the February issue (he’s the charity Centerfold) were leaked or at least previewed online.

Holy.

Moly.

Holy.

He’s just so completely PERFECT.

How gently and respectefully Anne tuckers his jewels in? Great check Anne 😉

And of course (talkin about aforementioned  perfectionS) the hands covering him as we know are Anne’s (well, of course… like she would have allowed anyone else to volunteer there… lol).

Beside the fact Anne’s hands are actually pretty thick if any, I completely love the way she gently tuckers him inside.

No really… *great job Anne* (collective sighing of complete envy?? You bet. Karim won’t mind… he knows how I feel there, it’s innate in me to lust after Adam… but I’m very respecteful of everybody… *involved* ;)).

His perfect body crafted through yoga practice tells you a lot of things (beside that he’s as fit as hell): he has no fat and he won’t ever have it.

No steroids or over-muscling there, which make grown up men after they hit 35 become FAT once they stop heavy gym regime; no, Adam will stay always that slender and sculpted, and no name could fit him more than “Adam” in fact.

God had really to think about prototypical male handsomely features when he had to shape first man on planet Earth, right?

Oh… yeah.

What you find in Cosmopolitan Uk. Now go drool for about an entire day 😉

Well… give me a couple of minutes to re-gain some decency and composure.

Thank you.

If you wonder, the charity Adam had to strip for is the EVERYMAN campaign for prostate and testicular cancer.

Adam Levine attends Lakers vs Hornets game at Staples in January 2011

Which IS a serious issue so after you’ve cleaned your saliva from desk, push any male you know about do those checks (and check your own partner, as gently as Anne did with Adam’s privates. It’s also a very sexy way to get intimate, beside being useful. And yes… Karim and I did that too ;)).

In the days of solitude from Anne Adam did not really avoid company: he went to Lakers game, then he stuck in the studio (thing that he’s doing a lot anytime he reaches back LA: good boy… keep doing it good boy ;)).

Talkin about Lakers games… *sigh*… I miss watchin them badly these days of illness… (Okay I’ll stop).

Then they went to ARIA HAZE Nightclub (Sam along and Gene too, beside Jimmy V… and some Matchbox20 pal allegedly too).

The night was awesome and I know well because Charisse (Karim’s cousin) actually went there.

Too bad the Arizona shooting actually numbered the night all across ponds for their family

But Charisse enjoyed the Las Vegas time of course and especially THIS cover Adam belted out of Nine Inch Nails’ epic CLOSER song.

We know it’s an all time fav of Adam and rightly so, because it’s so sexual and dirrrrrrrrrty of course he loves it (and he can do a wonderful rendition of it actually):

LOVE it.

So much.

Maroon 5 at Haze Nightclub in Las Vegas 8th January 2011 - 1

Take the collages again…

Maroon 5 at Haze Nightclub in Las Vegas 8th January 2011 - 2

and last one…

Maroon 5 at Haze Nightclub in Las Vegas 8th January 2011 - 3

Yeah… I’m loving cheesy collages lately.

Take it or leave it 😉 (even with Labyrinthitis I am stubborn and a nay-sayer… see?) 😉

His sexyness playing along.

After the gig and the beautiful sunsets Adam got back home of course.

My guess is that he avoided to be hungover in Vegas this time because being hungover in Vegas generally leads to strippers all over you and he had to imagine that wouldn’t have pleased Anne (Charisse has said to me there were wars among girls to get nearby to him in explicit way that night, but that he was totally unreacheable for that… GOOD THING ADAM boy. Good boy).

He had things to do… and to plan 😉

He also had to resist humors of good friends and TV mogul writers Hart Hanson and SOA creator Kurt Sutter about bikes… nakedness… you know… those things that haunt you if you’re hot and handsome and you still want to play Easy Rider 😉

Okay, it’s time for a bit of Flashback, okay?

I can put on thanx to my friend Siria the When I Was 17 episode involving Adam (it’s a re-reproduction… Siria thank you for recording it… you may have to do the same with the Critics Choice Awards… ;)), that a fellow British fan asked me about (glad to have filled her request, albeit in a no exactly perfect way ;)).

Enjoy this AMAZING version of Adam with cameos of Jesse and his mum Patsy (HILARIOUS and adorable man he is… also a bit of a bad boy… but with that face he can get along with it no matter what ;)):

And while we are at flashbacks, take also this small funny piece from Splash Tv on Adam’s past ;):

Am I good or what? 😉

Even ill… take note… lmao 😉

The night of the 11th January two things happened: the guys went to the Troubadour club to support (and play along) Maroon5 6th member PJ Morton (an awesome performance from everyone in the word of every witness) and Anne flew aside her man for a very, very blessed and important thing (after having shot her Victoria’s Secret Pink line duties, of course).

Yep.

The shooting of 4th single (but for me is like it’s the 3rd, you know why) “Never Gonna Leave This Bedvideo.

Awwww.

Error
This video doesn’t exist

The song ain’t my fav ballad on the record, but it’s definitely a good song and I just CAN’T wait for watching the final video out of it.

Error
This video doesn’t exist

You have seen some of my own pics for the video, now enjoy proper images out of its shooting from media sources:

Error
This video doesn’t exist

And this one too:

Error
This video doesn’t exist

I can’t get enough of them together: to me is like watching a beautiful paint in motion.

They’re a livin beautiful art ensemble to me: my aesthete soul just gets fulfilled through their sight together; a peculiar version of Stendhal syndrome? LOL 😉

All I know is that nakedness fits the both of them just SO well ;).

Anne actually could remain just for the brief time of the shooting because she had to fly back to Europe first in Barcelona, for what is a cover and I can’t wait to discover of which magazine, and after that straight then in Berlin for Fashion Week (and in Berlin she was actually First Face for Escada defilée!!! whoooo), so she couldn’t take part in the Critics Choice Movie Awards the following day, when Maroon 5 acted as house band and honored Quentin Tarantino in a wonderful version of “Stuck In The Middle with You during broadcast (I will provide the video as soon as possibleblame damn codecs of VH1 and MTV usa 😉 for the delay).

While all that was happening, images of the video stills were making also the French drool ;), while I just have to agree with Modelinia and their article about the event: indeed Adam DESERVES the “best boyfriend” Award: Fo Sho… ;).

While you wait for the proper thing, enjoy this patch-wall of pictures from the event though:

The images of the night and the afterparties were all  drool-worthy, by the way (and no one is surprised, is it?) and it seems it was really really a big fat laugh and entertaining jams all night long for all the boys (cute!!!).

I particularly loved to see Mickey and his ladylove (you know I have a soft spot for the silent one with the low deep beautiful voice).

Another wonderful thing happened hours later; Anne was moved to Berlin, and Adam went on voicing his ongoing pride, love and appreciation for his angel this way (awwwww all together):

isn't he so adorable?

Hours later, this was Anne’s answer (and I did melt… I was sick and super sick in my bed, but I couldn’t resist the wave of love the two exchanged and I melt… they are so completely wonderful as a loving couple…!!!!):

I can't help but adoring them two 🙂

Oh, they own my heart.

Truth :).

Biker Boy Adam ventured out the days after and beside that he also gave up to Lakers game after taping the Jay Leno performance (incredible!!!! He let James witness our win 😉 bad choice good boy… but at least Jimmy V had fun!), and he generally enjoyed the amazing winter climate of his hometown, ran more bike adventures, had some lunch and working meeting and especially he kept on hanging in the studio, for our future delight.

Btw, you know I am not a fan of Leno so the only thing that I let you see of it is of course Maroon 5 performance:

Okay. He’s hot. We can all agree there ;).

And “he” doesn’t mean Jay Leno of course ;).

Vintage Adam at Rock am ring

What to end?

First of all, Adam unveiled a very unexpected “old camp buddy” name and connection (really!!!!!) and then…

Lovely Matt Flynn had a moment to shine as well (check that podcast!!!)

Well, Anne has reached Adam back in Los Angeles just yesterday… I guess she slept a lot after her heavy schedule and I also bet the City of Angels is very glad to have her as an angel back.

Definitely Adam had someone to take care of after his morning in Santa Monica with Shawn, didn’t he? (a series of truly amusing tweets that one was… Adam is definitely such an hilarious guy!).

Vintage Adam 2007 VMA

We also all wish Adam didn’t have any more strange needs by the time he reached his belle at home (or at least that he gave her the candies... ;)).

We will hopefully have things to see next time too. We know we will 😉

Now let me thank my friends and Karim for having helped me out with this update (even though today I felt slightly better) and let me get back in bed to some more healing.

Catch you next time.

Hopefully decently soon enough 😉

Take care, as I will for sure… your sometimes very friendly (if you deserve) Miss Z. ;).

Hear me chant… hear me chant!!!

Just as I predicted.

The one and only Kobe Bean Bryant

Us in 6!!!

Third Finals in row… and I already smell Green Blood for another Mamba’s triumph.

Because… BOY.

Mamba rules.

So astonishingly.

His drive and force makes even Nash‘s determination and genius pale in comparison.

And this says A LOT.

Awesome.

Take that, Amare STOUPIDmare

We had a wonderful chat this past night, where you can see I enlightened the risk in Sasha‘s idiot falling in Dragic‘s mental traps as soon as it happened.

Game analysis baby.

You either have the vision, or not (btw… Psycho hilarious attempts at talk basketball… LMAO… my 3 years old cousin can say smarter things… LMAO…): Sasha has not.

You don’t boost Suns that way.

Mamba said he was ready to kill him.

And I would have helped him.

Adam cheers buddy Jonah Hill at Lakers game on May 27th 2010

Sasha… please NEVER do this against Rondo right?

But stay here. We need your badassness also in the Final.

Check in baby.

You can read my ideas in this just written Lakers blog post: it says all about past game and incoming series.

ALL AND MORE 😉

Adam reaching Staples on May 27th 2010

And as you read.. yup.

I’m ready to fly over LA for another Parade.

I wish I could witness also another game like last year, but that is uneasy to arrange unless Karim and I won’t stay there for a week, and that is pretty impossible this June.

But I wanna be at the Parade.

And be sure… THERE WILL BE ANOTHER PARADE.

Before giving you the amazing highlight of the game, let me say that Adam lived up to his Bball lover reputation and he dished in two hours and a half more Tweets than he generally does in two weeks.

Which I completely adored.

Just look ;):

Adam tweets during the game. 😉

Awww.

His enthusiasm is so fired up… it’s enchanting to read. And pretty, pretty hot sexy, too.

Standing and watching. Awww.

And yep baby: Kobe can become GOAT.

And yes… Magic is still up there yet sit on the throne, but only until Kobe retires to me (Michael Jordan… I know… for me Magic and Air Jordan are at the same level. So I take as well Magic into name, before him, cos well… Magic IS Lakers. This discussion has been held for ages in the Lakers blog. Everyone there knows my opinion on the matter. ;)).

But enough with Kobe’s laudas (not really…).

There’s another job to be done and Mamba first is not ready for laurels, until he bites the deadly kiss on Celtics ass 😉

And who are we to ruin that amazing plan he has? 😉

This is the game recap: enjoy and feel the laker power:

Karim and I had a wonderful sexual celebration about it.

What to say… our weekend so far has been fabulous: riding Swifty on friday (and today);  got an amazing Harley ride among friends yesterday (and sun cheered us even after a grey morning);  today we will relax and stay at me… planning to be cozy and nasty and lovely.

Raising eyebrows? Awww. ZeXy. 😉

Karim is starting sculpting a Mamba strangling a phoenix.

Really.

He’s that INTO it 😉

And I love it (plus it means he will stay shirtless all day. YUM…).

I hope Divine Creature will have same celebrations after night out, cos as I said his confidence about Lakers win today brought him back in New York by Anne‘s side, erasing that feeling of missing she was having (I always forget she calls him that way at times… because from the pics, Chovy was along her all time, and therefore, that would have been another one the pup she was missing… awww ;)).

Anne's Twitpics about her French Elle CURRENT Cover. Hot 😉

I am cheesy I know, liking these lovey names or metaphores or whatever they are…  But you should listen what Karim and I call one another’s like.

It’s equally embarassing and sweet.

And this comes from people who have NEVER been over-sugarly. Well, I definitely never had that in me before I fell in love.

While I do suspect someone writing things like She Will Be Loved is naturally prone at being sugarly.

At times at least.

Which is adorable AND makes the “dorky-sweet” name calling Anne might use for him… forgivable and all in all very tender.

Camon.

Love is love.

If you don’t turn a bit ridicolous for it, you probably are NOT really into it (I keep telling this to myself for avoiding the shame of using myself dorky names for Karim… LOL).

Btw, Anne is on French Elle’s cover.

That was about it up above.

Definitely her look fits perfectly European’s taste (and after all, also Adam’s facial features are way more European than American actually… that’s why I find him “noble” looking  ;)).

I still amazed – getting back to his tweets for a moment – the way almost nobody among his “fans” is able to get musical references, and I LOVE when his dark sarcasm enlightens the posts he receives that don’t live up to his brain standards:

Adam talkative during United Airlines nightfly to Anne.

Anyway they sure must be on cloud nine now, and I love that so much.

MOst beautiful facial structure ever. So noble.

I also hope the next, and incoming parade will be on a Thursday.

Why?

Because allegedly every wednesday Adam now is at Las Palmas, and I said already I wanna check in there to see what the fuss is all about (contacts already displayed there. Never get trouble in enetering ANY upper club 😉 which rocks 😉 TOTALLY).

The pics of him you see are those from last game, and those with no tags are courtesy of Jennifer Coles as usual 😉

Enjoy eye candies.

I am sure I am not the only one making reasoning about the lenght of his feet. 😉

Be lovely and DIRRRRTY today.

And celebrate the glory of the One and Only, the Black Mamba and his awesome, OUR awesome, LAKERS.

I will definitely rewatch the game during day because I long to hear what Flavio Tranquillo and Federico Buffa will say to celebrate the unmatcheable power and the astonishing glory of Kobe Bean.

Man I love that.

They are like me ;):

Kobe lovers with no bounderies and totally happy and proud about it.

Of course they DO know what basketball is all about, so no shock there at all 😉

Aww. Even when he makes teh funny faces I would eat him alive... 😉

PS: The Italian translation of this post will happen way later in the day.

It’s Swifty ride now and then… well, I love to distract Karim from sculpting, LOL.

And the reason is I have a fire inside that keeps want celebrating… Lakers? Life? Everything?

I am so so so happy.

I want so so so so so so so BAD my dad to agree and give me three days for the Parade (we need three for the flights… but that way we stay in LA just the time of reaching Coliseum again…I shiver thinkin of last year… I have to be there again…after all, we have the house… gotta use it? ;))

He's thinkin "Camon... didn't you take enough pics already? Bac off? Thanx..." 😉

Right 😉

Awww. When he smiles. Sun shines brighter when Adam smiles 😉

Happy Sunday world 😉

And the pap still not going away 😉 *sigh* (but good for our eyes...)

Happy LAKERS Sunday, I mean 😉

Bu-bye! 😉

Good new week, world!

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 1 -

After a very quiet (and for Karim and I, awesome weekend in my new Florence apartment, that will likely become our elective love nest, *guaranteed*) few days, when I just forgot about pc and tasks (and so, yes, I haven’t prepared Gotten Video homage yet… hopefully I will be able to complete it today and post it tomorrow morning), get ready because today we have lots of stuff, thanx to the blessed fact this long weekend Maroon5 shot the video for their incoming first single from Hands All Over

*drumroll*

AND THE SONG AIN’T MISERY!!!!

First single is going to be Give A Little More.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 2 -

I’m SO happy about the song change.

My opinion there was adamantine: NO depressing subjects for Summer.

No way they’d work, especially in a moment when kids love trash like Autotune and carefree songs (have you ever looked in the past 18 months at charting songs? The only things that work are soulless idiocities, and given that NOTHING Maroon5 do could ever be “soulless” or “idiotic”, at least they had to think it’d be better to try and avoid the whining in music till… well, till Fall comes. I’m sure Misery will work amazingly as second single , ready for times after Summer Lovers breakups – a seasonal classic for young people everywhere, right? – ).

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 3 -

Well, after these tidbits, of course all pictures here are taken from the video shot.

I’m delighted about the Fan Inclusion thing Maroon5 did on Sunday for their video. Very nice and clever.

Just as I predicted even from February, and then given it for assured as the relationship grew stronger,  Anne is the female lead of the video,  (look all the pics 😉 Awww… Their babies would be so beautiful… and with gorgeous cat’s eyes, and a luminous smile, as both of them have those…), and this couldn’t really surprise anybody, considering Adam’s tendency there .

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 4 -

With Kelly he lasted around a year and half, so will the video making together lead to a longlasting relationship OR will the video making together taunt the relationship, making it end it shortly after?

You know my option there is for Divine A. to be as happy and serene as possible so I hope for solution #1.

I’m charmed by their beauty together, and being she a model, I bet Adam’s love for disguising sex match-ups run rampants in their bedroom… or anywhere else, I hope 😉 LOL.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 5 -

I still love that he seems absolutely unfazed by scaramantic ideas, and just goes and roll with it.

Which is totally correct. Live and Love.

There aren’t really better options than that one, and what tomorrow will bring, you’ll take it.

I can’t wait to see their hotness in the vid: *lots of tantalizing ideas will come out from there* 🙂

(Karim smirks everytime I hint at that… *wonder why* ;))

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 6 -

Mash said no Anne in sight on Sunday, which is logic, because you stay there for your fans only when you include them in your video, and if you’re clever enough you avoid to flaunt your supermodel girlfriend in front of them, don’t you?

Btw, she just realized right minutes ago that shooting videos is a bit more demanding than taking photo shots 😉 she better rest cos in a few hours she’s into Staples Center cheering Lakers for their 1st Western Conference Final battle… and Adam is so keen at it, he even chanted Lakers choirs for the fans involved in the video shooting.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 7 -

I bet he’s all ready and up pumping for trashing Phoenix Suns ;)!

Twitter chances to someway get a feedback from the video shooting were amusing (I actually checked them this morning on the way to work, smiling on Metro and thinking that the 50’s look will do Adam good. It’s since they’ve recorded Sinatra’s cover that I wait for that look on him & them… though from the images so far t seems like the video reminds A LOT of Grease. Adam said he dies several times there… let’s see how they mix Grease with a killers story… I’m curious and excited.

Director Joseph Kahn is a nice choice, and allegedly it seems a very interesting plot. We’ll see 😉 btw, Adam’s MercedesS400 seems to gain always stylish fans, doesn’t it? LOL.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 8 -

It’s nice to exploit Twitter availability regarding Maroon5 cos you get for instance these little gifts from James, too (awww).

And it all becomes a plus, doesn’t it?

So, the steps towards the new music are all listed.

I so love the moment when everythig gets planned and the machine starts to work stuff.

For instance, from now on you will hear lots more of Maroon5 music around. The marketing steps request that as preparatory “ground” for the new stuff. Even though my Radio Stations and channels never really went shy on them, which is great.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 9 -

I just hope they will let stuff going on here in Italy with Radio Deejay because it’d be way easier for me to get all passes AND the bites I long the most for (afterparties). But even if it’d be RDS, I can work a couple of contacts well still.

We got time, anyway.

Also in some other Europe landscapes.

*delighted face* 😉

(yeah, I’m not really up for meet&greet myself. I’m more lateral, I know… ;)).

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 10 -

Okay… after the amazing feeling of detailing my babies latest infos, I have FORCEDLY to take a minute and mourn and give the requested honours at Inter for their 18th Serie A victory (and they passed us… *sigh*).

I know.. I’m so loyal in sport and no… I’m not crying… *sniff*.

Yesterday as we came back from Florence we got straight struck at Karim’s pad and called Fede and Serena and played with the Wii for avoiding stepping off and being surrounded by all Inter chants and supporters..

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 11 -

I know.. it’s a sad and a coward move… but I couldn’t bare their sight.

And on Saturday we are in Spain… luckely not in Madrid, but in Barcelona… but anyway we risk more Inter celebrations there too… *boy*!!!… 😦

Today, just because it’s fair to Give A Little More also in no music territories, finally Lakers play again as I have already told you.

It was too long of a break, but hopefully useful for our guys to get back forces and a bit more of an health (but Suns get those back too…).

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 12 -

I am all up for the battle.

Ready to share stuff in the Lakers Blog and just flow with it.

I still predict us in 5. If it gets really nasty, us in 6. But I still see 5.

*excitement*!!!!

Yesterday Karim and I missed an invite to be at Monaco/Montecarlo Grand Prix.

My dear friend Colette has a house in Monaco and she always invites me every year.

Adam and Anne on Give A Little More Video set, 14 May 2010 - 13 -

We would have accepted but we had the finalization of the apartment deal, so we skipped it.

It has been a good race, and Ferrari did decently (gotta admit Alonso did really well).

So, these days will be hopefully smooth at work because from Friday the Barcelona trip (done for Karim’s work AND for some fun too) will involve also some move on potential partners from Catalunia, and this has already been prepared.

On Thursday, before leaving, there is the NATO/Rotary thing.

Let’s cross fingers weather will be decent…

Today the music tidbits are the always amazing and overstylish Baustelle:

and The National (live from Letterman. I LOVED that performance a lot:

I end with more pics from Give A Little More Video set.

And get ready for being steamed out 😉

Adam and Anne Makin Out on Video Set

*HOOOOOOOOT* 😉 >>> Full Pictures series HERE

Adam and Anne having *heavy duties* to work on 😉

Is that a scene of the video (surely I guess it)?

Adam and Anne "acting" on the Video set... 😉 (I bet they LOVED every second ;))

A way to kill boredome in between ciaks (if any, they’d loved to remake ciaks… LOL)?

Adam reached by the hairstylist... Worry Adam, worry out 😉

One moment to comment from shot number 11 to number 16… his face while they puff up the back of his hair…

The torture of Hair&Care... Look how's Anne relaxing and learn from her expertise Adam 😉

I couldn’t stop laughing. Sorry Adam, that was just too funny… 😉

Oh, boy... that is hilarious 😉 (he still adorable even there though ;))

All I know is that she is *darn lucky* 😉

Torture is ended Adam... good things coming next... 😉

No way I can blame her for anything she did there… who wouldn’t do exactly the same in her shoes (or way, way nastier than her in her shoes…)… 😉

Rawwwwwwrrrr 😉 Can't wait to see the video 😉

Enjoy your Monday peeps – tomorrow more pics: I have been addressed to 84 more 😉 –  🙂 🙂 :)!

UPDATE: I can’t resist… the 84 pictures from Photoshelter are ADORABLE, gotta post at least a couple of them already.

From OnLocation

Beside, this is what OnLocation says (which makes the song picked up for first single yet STILL a debate? we’ll figure out… Read what they say in the site about the filming, because it seems in the end Misery still the first single? I still don’t like the idea, if any, but in the end I’ll love anything they come up with… I know ;)):

From OnLocation:

May 14th & 15th 2010. Los Angeles, CA. ***EXCLUSIVE*** Adam Levine and his sexy russian supermodel girlfriend Anne Vyalitsyna filming a Maroon 5 Music Video for their song “Misery”. The sexy couple filmed various scenes of loving affection with passionate kissing followed by scenes of humorous violence and destruction. In this action packed Music Video shot on the streets of Downtown Los Angeles, Adam Levine and his band mates are fleeing from Anne Vyalitsyna who is humorously trying to kill them in various ways. Scenes include a missile gun attack and warrior style knife throwing from Anne, Adam being hit by a car while running away, Adam being close lined by Anne off a motorcycle that he is fleeing on, Adam being kicked through a cafe window as well as being ejected from the window of a high rise building. The couple were constantly kissing, hugging and holding hands while on set. They both shared a big luxury trailer while not filming.”

From OnLocation (gosh, look his gorgeous smile... I can imagine the phrase there "Honey, don't move too much THERE or we won't film for a while more... " ;))

Enjoy and see you tomorrow for more 😉

Jeez.

What an awful sport Saturday-leading-ito-Sunday it has been…

First Milan got again ridiculized by Palermo (excellent score of Miccoli, but we were embarassing…):

and that already would have been enough to make me put a giant X over sport pride during weekend…

But then it happened way worst drama and shame, and the only thing that made the situation bareable were the fact we were watching the game at a lovely dancing club (thank you Giorgio for allowing us the game watch in itself!), that I re-met Samuele after two years (Samu!!!! You still gorge man), that I could make it anyway from there to the LA Lakers Blog chat, and that Karim and I mixed in one of the most epically pleasing Sexual Healing sessions ever after the shame.

You might have got right now that yes… Lakers lost again against OKC.

This time truly, truly badly and without a sign of life.

A total OFF game which I will analyze this evening in the LA Lakers Blog after we get back from Garda Lake:

Ouch.

I bet this ruined a lot what seemed to have started as a wonderful Saturday for Divine A. (and which was actually looking a lot similar to mine and Karim’s saturday: bikes as well, maybe a less sun over Garda Lake than in SoCal…), because sure he was not expecting (as any of the Lakers fans I know, included myself) another – and worst actually – beating up from OKC.

Too bad that in fact Adam‘s saturday definitely went way worst than mine though, because (oh, boy…) look what Anne tweeted just a little while ago:

How do you convince someone to go out when they don’t want to? It’s been so long for me, where r my girls when I need them?

Adam and Anne at LA Eatery Johan The Third on thursday, 22 April 2010 (Images through NewsCom/Wenn)

Poor angel (Adam of course).

He can’t catch a break.

Like losing that way the game did not ruined his evening enough.

I guess the Sexual Healing therapy is just a thing of me and Karim?

What a shame and what a waste.

Now I have erased from today’s music mix some songs that were included because in his songs kinds of situations like these are way too well detailed and explained and I don’t like right now to picture up them fighting, and mostly I hate to picture out him angry, bitter or sad.

Yep.

I never like to imagine Divine Creature bitter for no reasons.

But I can bet a conspicuous part of my fortunes that he is, and moreover I can see him REALLY angry about the fact that tweet was left under everyone’s eyes.

(btw, this privacy matter makes me willing to insert a little tweaking bit in now: do you remember the hilarious Delia Dobbs and her lol-ing tweet the other day? Well Marghe and some friends have come to my same conclusions there. That “new” person tweets the same style in words and the same style in obsessions as another person many known of. Same lexicon, same punctuations, same type of musical, sport and fashion hints, and a general total equal vibe. Plus that other person has slowed some of her constant tweeting down after that Debbie girl shown up, like she was her mirroring bird. Of course they are mutual followers, too. It takes a little to make ID tracking -thank you Fede, nobody beats you with tech stuff- and surprise surprise… they are most definitely the same person. Ouch. Kinda scary. Or sad. Or both… Never ask me why I don’t trust Internet people. Internet is full of very strange, strange inhabitants. Be careful in share personal items online. And when you do, save all evidences in hard-disks, just like I do. Prevents from bad surprises. Just a heartly given advice ;))

Anyway, on the Divine chapter, the weekend had started with Marghe frolicking over a news that made her stay wide awake on Friday.

Apparently, all leaked dates for those gigs with Owl City and the Kansas State Fair were canceled (not yet the Today tough, which I think can actually stay).

To me no news there: as I wrote and well predicted, it was senseless to expect now an album in June: there are three months of planning moves for a marketing plot before an album comes out, even 4 when it’s about huge bands.

You start with the one month and a half of single promotion, & from the moment you start talkin about it, to the one when Radio gets it, and then video, and then around 5 weeks later from that the thing can be actually purchased, lots of steps have to be carefully synchronized and pursued.

You don’t do site restyling NOW if you plan an album in June.

You do when you plan it in September.

Which it is.

Today Show can stay if it’s a way to promote the single.

I have no problems there.

As long as the album is into Grammy eligibility, it’s okay with me and actually that way I don’t miss a tour in Summer, since this summer I can’t be in USA that much due to the fact we will spend it sailing on my boat in the Mediterranean sea.

I keep sensing it’s an album full of Fall feelings more than Summer-ish.

And I still hope the first single, dropping in Summer, won’t be totally depressing (especially with the image that runs in my head this morning after the quarrel revealed through twitter. Man… what an unfortunate choice… The more I think of that, the more I shake my head. He wants to stay in? Darn… CELEBRATE YOUR LUCK, don’t whine… Absurd…).

But camon people, it’s Sunday and gotta light up, no matter what: Garda Lake looks awesome today, Harley is rumbling and we can’t wait to taste Spring flavours with all of our 5 senses around here.

My music choice of the day, inspired also by the need of substituting a couple tracks in my today mix for avoiding too bright picturing of fights (problems with songwriters: you know how they deal with personal stuff cos they use them for creating songs… so a fan can’t really escape being introduced in their mental state, can we?), is  a really good discover in my 2010, The XX.

Enjoy:

And have a good Sunday, because I will get it no matter sport and music turnovers today (wish Divine Creature the same… I truly do: he should always be blessed and supported, and he should always wear that gorgeous smile that moves mountains. Get it back soon, Adam. Get it back. ).

Yin and Yang always compose themselves for the better.

Always.

From the peak of the highest mountains, till the deepest of Ocean’s bottom, world, get a grip and shout along, cos MY BDAY WEEK WAS AWESOOOOOME!!!!

I am totally in love with life.

I know the 25th birthday is something that can sound of a certain importance (half of half of a century, step into proper adult life, just  good sounding number… ;)), but the way I have celebrated it… my oh my!!! It crashed any chance of finding a decent enough definition for it, in order to describe that magnificence!!!

First of all. My mum and dad are just the best mum and dad ever on any planet which guests life.

They did all in such a great way…

On wednesday, I arrived there at their home and it was all coloured and radiant: my relatives all there… Meli and Stef there, and as I expected, Karim’s parents coming there too.

The car they gave me was not exactly small: now I drive a way too big for my tastes of parking BMW X3 (they wanted actually gift me the X5, but gave up at my continous disliking of huge cars), which just this morning conducted me at work with the ongoing scare of touching other peeps.

It’s TOO big for me.

Makes me feel uncomfortale (which is why I am keeping anyway the Punto: I will probably rent a further parking box, both in Milan and at my place…).

my iPad

Karim’s parents gifted me with an iPad… Lovely!!!

I haven’t had too much of time to play with it cos I had too much going on these days, and also cos the Italian store is a bit of a biatch there (but I have been going to the USA store anyway…), but what I have got an hold with was insanely amazing.

From my relatives and Meli I have got a lot of  Chanel stuff: a couple of floreal dresses, a jacket, two pair of trousers, two bikins, a pair of shorts (SHORT SHORTS), two bags, two pair of glasses, two perfumes, a traveling set of suitcases, and an amazing pair of shoes that I adore cos they have tons of charms over them.

They are vintage.

I’ll pack everything up and bring it all with me in Paris this weekend (yep, we get there as planned for 5 days… I want to live in the town of romance and speak ONLY French.. can’t wait!!!).

The day after, it was just up to me and Karim: he drove me to a wonderful CASTLE in ValDAosta, and we had a floor entire there, with a suite and all you can think of: they brought us a fancy dinner on our terrace, they serenaded us from the yard with violins and piano, and in that suite there was sauna, of course a large jacuzzi, and all possible amazingness you can think of.

But the point was that we were together… It’s always so intensively pleasing to see how we communicate at any level, and so profoundely. We read each other’s mind by now. It’s just so wonderful.

And it doesn’t scare me anymore.

I like it.

So when he actually started to act a bit strnge, I guessed there was something he was about to do that he knew would have been not really going like (maybe others?) planned.

At a certain point Karim said:

“Za’, I have to give you something. It’s not your birthday gift yet… but it’s… well, it’s important in its own way…”.

Karim never eats words as he speaks.

You can’t ever catch him acting awkwardly.

Karim never hides eyes while he speaks to you. And especially never when he speaks to me.

He was doing all that at that point, so I just slided nearer to him and started to kiss all of the naked skin he was offering to my tongue.

“Please… stop and let me finish… or I won’t even go on… at all…”

“What makes you feel uncomfortable honey? Tell me.”

He did not answer. He went to his small trolley and opened it and under a pile of shirts he took off one of those very small boxes that can contain just one thing.

Just not ready yet, honey. Sorry 😉

One small box.

Damiani.

Way too small box.

“Please… Zaira don’t hate me now… I have to…”

“No you don’t. And from the way you are acting now, it seems luckely to me that in a way you don’t really even WANT to, baby…”

Karim silenced.

He took a deep, deep breath.

Watched me; then the box in his hand… then me again.

He smiled.

Then opened the box in front of me, revealing its shimmering, truly luxuriously beautiful content:

“Zaira, don’t kid yourself: you know that in my mind and in my heart there’s just one person I could ever want to be my wife. That person is you. I think it’s meant to be you from probably the very first second I met you. You know what I was before you. How I was. You know what I have done to be with you. You know… better… by now I am sure you feel and live inside your own skin that my adoration for you is complete, my love gets stronger day by day, and my only joy is here and true only when I am with you. You know that my greatest will is to be with you for the rest of my life. You know that I will marry you as soon as that idea won’t make you feel torn, or caged. You know that the day you will tell me “I want you to be my husband” you will make me the happiest man on Earth… ”

“But we have talked about this already a lot angel… you know what I think of marriage…”

“I do know. I respect that. I don’t care cos I feel you’re mine anyway. But this ring is here for you. And this will be the only ring I will keep along with me and you will be the only person I will ever present it to be put on her finger… You just have to know this is the real truth… You had to know this ring exists, so that wehn that feeling you have about marriage could change, you will know… that I am ready. Already. I am ready for this since we first kissed. Does it sound just too stupid and cheesy to be believed?”

You have no idea how beautiful he was looking while telling all this.

Karim is a very, very beautiful young man.

But in that moment, he was probably the most beautiful person I had ever seen, past or present, even future, the most spectacularly looking individual I ever gazed eyes into.

“That sounds so amazingly in my ears, in my heart, that words I could pronounce now to describe it would just never suffice…”

I reached him and made myself his own mirror; pushed him gently towards the bed, and slided over on top of him.

Took the box in my own hands from that position, and pulled the ring out, in between my two fingers. I honestly have to say I had the huge temptation to say to him I would have worn it. But that would have been a kind gesture. Not a true gesture.

And I am always essentially and completely true.

“Keep it in the box angel. This ring is breathtaking, and I can see meaning it for real that one day if I would ever feel fit for marriage, the only thing that I know is that I would wear only THIS ring. Keep it. I will pray day and night that you will still willing forever to offer it just to me. Because you are the most wonderful man I could ever meet. This I know already. Even if I keep feeling not really fit, or at least ready, for that strange thing they call marriage…”

“Or engagement…”

“Or engagement, yep…”

We smiled a bit.

Then he pushed me head to head with him.

And no… you can’t even begin to picture out what we had in the time following.

That was paradise.

Too much paradise for mere human beings…

If you wonder which was Karim’s bday gift… after gifting me so far with Japan holidays, with fly training lessons, with Swifty, with everything a spoiled girl like me could think of, know that this birthday I have got a boat in my own name.

Yup.

I have been gifted, for our marine times, of a beautiful (small but cute.. well, small if you compare it to the size of Karim’s family yacht… LOL…) Oceanis 37, the beauty jewel of Beneteau franchise.

Sooooo.... looks like now I also have a boat in my name 😉

And yes, the boat has my own name.

Karim will take me at the place where the boat is now, namely Fecamp, France, when we get to Paris this weekend.

The boat will actually be ready and ready to sail by next June.

We will decide how to make it reach Mediterrean Sea.

And also we will decide where to store it.

Shit.

I have a boat.

A boat with my name on it.

I love everything about this.

My mum said this when we told her:

“You mean a REAL boat? But you can’t sail it!”

And Karim:

“But I do. And we can always hire personnel…”

The face of my mum there was reading “I guess they are really another level…”.

Karim loves my mum.

He always says I am like her cos all that I think and feel just shows on my face.

“Your daughter just deserves anything a princess could ask for herself…”

Mum there cried.

Really.

😉

Lovely in full.

I know.

Money don’t buy happiness. But it’s not about owning stuff: it’s about what lies behind those stuff.

I am not bragging because I have been gifted with amazing things: I am just delighted and feel so blessed cos amazing people (they would be amazing any case, money or not, as well as being rich doesn’t diminish the value of their love and feelings) try to read in my mind and soul and find what makes me truly fell hapy to be alive.

I love sea.

I love freedom.

I love wind, sun, salt… I love traveling.

This makes me human: and Karim’s boat gift tries to emphazise what makes me feel alive.

It’s not THE BOAT.

It’s what that boat means.

Hope you get that.

If Karim wouldn’t be rich, and he would have proposed me a Interrail trip and a camping out in Europe this summer, with  a skipping little motorboat rented for two hours to make me taste the salty sea, I would have loved it equally: cos the thought behind referring to my own spirit would have been just THE SAME.

The day after, it was only girlie time.

Marghe and my girlfriends organized a dinner, a night out in Milan, dance and fun.

I loved to have a girlie night out.

I loved to tease people around, and toy with hopeless boys, and being cruel and incredibly picky.

I know, I am bad.

I like to excercise power on the male race.

What can I do… I am this way since a life.

You can’t make a square round. 😉

But I behaved.

Ehi! I am such a good girl now 😉

Night after it was a clubbing night with the whole crew, and once more, what can  I state of value if not the acknowledgement I am blessed with the bestets friends EVER???? (and look, not all of them have had sex with me…. so somewhere I just have to think they really really love me just because of what I am ;)… LOL… ).

They have covered me with what I was requesting from the Paris Fashion week… lots of Marithé… I was actually dressed like that when the party was going on and on and on…

I love to dance.

Makes me feel careless and so, so fine…

I have slept the day after till 5 am (yesterday, yup). You think it’s a lot? well, we went back home from Sirmione (where teh party was) on Garda Lake that it was 8 am… so not THAT much.

I woke up in Karim’s arms and we were actually sleeping on the lower part  of the bed… we had such a messing adorable sex fight before falling asleep it was a miracle we didn’ fall outside the bed.

Of course, as soon as we woke up, we had wet sex again (don’t think badly of us… we had that in the Jacu, man ;)).

Too bad I couldn’t have that THIS morning… or yesterday night.

yesterday we rocked and jazzed a LOT!!

Because after the party his parents organized for me yesterday (final and amazing piece of my incredible and best ever Bday week: we had a villa for us, a jazz band playing amazingly for us… the best you can ever think of… it was a blast!!!), ended, I went home (my own one) with mum and dad, but Karim drove to Milan as this morning he had to bring his parents back to Malpensa for them to catch a flight back to San Francisco.

Wonder what they told him about the ring refusal (I am sure some of it it has to do with them. They are lovely and cool… and liberal as fuc* for Heaven’s Grace.. but I guess they really want us to get married. I suppose it’s a good sign. It’s just that… oh well… it’s a private business between me and Karim still. Sorry. I told them openly about this. I think they are mostly surprised that I am really so NOT a gold digger. Everytime they tell me this so openly they melt me. But yeah.. i don’t see the point of gold digging. It’s senseless in itself. I just adore their son. I would also if he weren’t so ridicolously rich and in fact I have learnt step after step that they are THAT rich. It took me a lot to get how much… and I still really don’t care. The richest thing that family has for me is Karim and that has NOTHING to do with wealth. :))

Anyway they feel secure of me also cos I am not one of those who posts family pictures or personal stuff for real on web.

I find it also very trivial, just like they do.

People are really putting too much of interest in the Internet: it’s like everybody thinks they are “famous” or “cool” livingit through the web.

But peeps… real life is outside web.

Get one, because when you are way too involved with it, your ratio at loser-ness is pretty damn HUGE.

You won’t ever see online very personal pics of me or my friends or my lover.

You won’t really get any of the pics I have with mattering people I have met and known through my life. No way you will see my exes, either (no bballer or athlets or artists or writers available on these pages, never ever, sorry…).

Those are memories of mine.

My own real life.

My experiences.

My own treasures.

I won’t ever trivialize that. Never ever.

And after all there’s a reason for really rich and noble people have at least three names: because you can use for calling your real baby the middle one for example, and that cuts all way to reconnect too much of family business. (Karim’s first name I think I heard it just once pronounced by any of them: his father calls him through it only when he’s pissed, and they are pretty much all very relaxed, zen people there ;). And btw “Karim” is way more musical and cool name than his first-first one ;)).

I know I know… so far I have missed some of my regular topics here: Sports & Divine A , not to mention my adored babies M5.

Starting from the babies, and still darn waiting for the release date (ehi!!!! I’m growing 52 there… ;)), just wanna say at least now Kansas has something it might sound cool for

Sport-y like, the only bad thing of yesterday was the shame poured in Laker Dome.

We lost against the darn Blazers (expected, still awful cos this year we just suck with free throws, which in Kobe‘s case is a sign of the bad finger recovery, while about the rest is just that they choke on the line… not good cos it’s been a consistent flaw in our season and it doesn’t look any good…):

Highlights?

Adam and lil bro Sam witnessing Portland Lakers Sunday April 11th 2010 at Staples

I would dare to say jokingly Sasha‘s DUNK (?? LOL!) but seriously beside Kobe’s final points that got us there again (I saw the game recorded yesterday at 2 AM as I couldn’t sleep without Karim fuc*in me…) the only cute thing on that floor was of course Divine Adam‘s sightseeing (don’t expect pics, as usual, cos Sam‘s there means absolute forbidden chance there. I love his protective flair there… he’s so adorable…)

He did not give himself a reason on how the game was lost, since he tweeted exactly he couldn’t get how he witnessed the shame of the Portland’s take of the stack, but baby honey, it’s not that the Lakers have been that amazing lately, have they? 😉

Previously, we won against Minnesota in the most boring game ever:

and before we LOST again against Denver, but in a game we actually decently played without Drew and Kobe, and a game we could have also won with a decent clutch (while yesterday I think Portland would have taken us anyway even if we had tied at the end and go to the extra time… honestly):

Poor angels Lakers…

Not that Milan was much better.

We kept losing grip even if Inter‘s clearly on a downhill path: we couldn’t take advantage of any of that, so by now… ROMA rules.

They make me green a bit cos it’s clear they are playing it for real and we just look like a geriathric department dressed in red and black.

But Roma deserves all props.

Really… wow.

At least Valentino Rossi start with the Moto GP was of course stellar:

Vale, you rule!!!!

And that’s about sport, I guess.

😉

Divine Adam life in the week has been a bit on the low too.

It has to do with the fact Anne‘s been taken away from him due to working matters: first she was in Miami, then now in Marseille, but anyway fact is they are away from one another since a week and counting.

She’s got nerves to be that much away from him.

I couldn’t … LOL.

No really… it’s cool that they have their own live, it’s rightly so.

People are way more interesting when they are actually living individuals first on their own.

It shows personality.

Drive and all that revolves around those qualities.

You know I root in for them and I do cos she’s the only girl he has had so far that I feel I look clearly inferior to.

Never happened before.

Anne V. and her adorable freckles. Awww. So cute it's unreal 🙂

The beauty picking order has sense in my Universe, you know that: I am all for genetically bound to be spectacular merging.

I respect those hotter than me and she most definitely is.

I retreat humbly in front of so much, wishing the very best and hoping it lasts, even if, being Adam… well, Adam, you clearly can’t ever bet on it, can you?

Though one day, man has to grow up and mature also in the relationship department, so maybe THIS could be the right time when he actually stops being bulimic about the other half of the Sky?

I hope so: because you know I believe he will be happy for real only when he will let love truly rule.

And after all, no matter how much I am lost about him, all I want is the man to be happy forever: therefore I wish him the greatest joy to be found in real love.

And cross my fingers for it.

I really do.

I would never ever do anything to cause him damage or trouble. Never did. Never will.

I really like Adam and Anne together… though when they are parted, one of the good outcoming is that he tweets more, leading to hilarious sceneries, just as these:  encounters with Hanna Montana scary moments… or awesome suggestions for YouTube videos, like this one…

The thing is that the wide majority of people following Adam don’t have a clue on his amazing sense of humour.

They take his words way too literally, but in the shallowest of ways, and it appalles me to understand they are a bit dumb, while he is so sharp and bright.

I am sure he shakes head a lot about that as well.

Too bad: cos really the most amazing quality he has is not even his talent or voice or the fact he’s handsome…Adam‘s best quality is by far his creative brain.

Hands down.

This is what I let you hear today. Ash:

Kylie Minogue:

And the amazing Atoms For Peace (ah!!! Thom!!!!):

Because… well, I’m a hopeless bag of butterflies in the stomach and happy about it.

Lightweight with style.

LOL.

Happy week everybody 😉

Good morning mundane world 😉

Easter Monday Surfers, 5thApril 2010, Levanto

Back after a wonderful Easter time, no matter rainpours (which were actually a bliss as well, cos you know… forced into a room… Karim and I…there are TONS of good things we can do actually ;)), and no matter internet lacking (that was another kind of bliss actually… and after all having the everly connected iPhone is all that I need, anywhere. I can reach all over the world in a click…), I’m back with sort of a GIANT update.

Where do I start from?

Levanto Folkloristic Parade, Easter 2010

Personal stuff of course.

I twittered a lot and shared lots of twitpics already so you pretty much know what I have been up to.

I bet you all drooled over the food I have made you witness in these days, haven’t you?

I need a serious gym after these days of gourmet.

Okay, we’ve burnt LOT of energy in sexual plays but still…

French part of Cote d'Azur, 5th April 2010

If yesterday we only could have surfed over the awesome waves that were in Levanto… (no okay… I can’t surf… ;)) I bet things would have been perfect.

Instead, lacking surfboards, we rented a boat and coasted till France. Cote d’Azur splendiferous, on both Italian and French coasts.

We soaked up in the sun, and loved every friggin bit of it.

Yes, we also were kinda nasty.

Who cares.

Boats inspire us and with what we’ve paid, nobody is gonna complain.

Captain and sailors were rightly mum and discrete.

They better to.

;).

Manarola brings colours on a grey Saturday (April 3rd 2010)

Easter was cozy, we witnessed again the folklore in Levanto and loved it all so much.

We were like… doubling the pleasure of last year.

Man, we feel so incredibly close right now we like share a common brain and soul.

It’s so incredibly powerful.

There are moments when I do stop, whatever I am doing, and realize that… SHIT… I am really in love.

That kind of love people speak and write and sing about.

The kind of love I was thinkin I did understand “culturally”… but the kind of love you just have to feel to really get.

I live through what Karim lives.

I feel what he feels.

I feel just so totally belonging.

I’ve grown up so much thanx to this love.

So much, that it’s really natural for me to hope all those whom I dearly love can feel and live this too, soon, and forever.

For how strange I am and still be… I belong.

It’s something that as incredibly as it sounds… it keeps free me.

Maybe it’s because he loves me so and really for who I am, he loves also the crazy ideas I have on life, and sex and love.

I thought I were alone, because I was too complicated to be really understood and taken.

Instead… it seems Karim likes also the strangest things of myself.

The artist in him, probably can cope with all this and find a sense in it.

Btw, from yesterday we listen continuatively to Slash.

The italian preorder was available from yesterday morning, so through iPhone we donwloaded.

From the boat.

Crazy & Cool.

We’re listening to it from hours… it’s WONDERFUL.

WONDERFUL.

Beside Gotten, unsurprisingly my other favourite track belongs to Chris Cornell‘s awesome voice.

But all is fabulous, truly.:

I’ll be back about music and Divine Creatures soon…

Let me just keep going on a bit about Karim and I.

Tomorrow my superbirthday time starts.

Yep, tomorrow I reach the BIG 25.

We will be at my parent’s tomorrow, dining with them and my family.

I have the feeling Karim’s parents may arrive, but I don’t really have real clues… it’s just a feeling.

I know tomorrow a courier will deliver me my new iPad.

They gifted me with it (they gifted me the Kindle, so now that iPad made Kindle obsolete, they filled the gap, avoiding to have me await for the Italian iPad release, which will be only at the end of the month. Ah!!! I am so spoiled ;)), and dunno why, I just feel they might catch a plane and land it to me directly in hands actually.

Who knows.

This whole week will be a surprise for me.

The only thing that won’t be so fully it is that on Thursday Karim takes me away on a private dinner getaway.

I have no idea WHERE.

I know with him I can expect the unexpected.

😉

Love that.

His fantasy rules a lot.

Then from Friday through saturday and till sunday… I have THREE different parties organized by all of my friends and friends of friends.

I’ll be destroyed in such an awesome way by next week.

Love it till no end.

Ah!

Speaking of birthdays, gotta cope with all that happened while I was away from Internet.

Happy Birthday Jesse!!!

On April 2nd, Jesse sweet baby celebrated his own birthday and the place where that was held was Adam‘s house (which is great, and you get why).

Even greater was that the music played (got it from guests tweets… ah! the bless of Twitter!) was actually the NEW music of Maroon5.

Please, dear Above: make this release RUSH. I know. June is not far away but still… it’s not tomorrow ;).

I am longing so much for this I am actually like dying for it.

Yeah, it happens always with their music but this time it risks to reach a peak of insanity ;).

Before the party was up and running for Jesse at Adam’s place, Russian Fairy and the Divine Creature went at Staples Center to witness the GOOD part of Lakers weekend.

This part:

I couldn’t watch the game and did not follow it at night (we were sleeping after a LOVELY match 😉 of our own there…) but of course I knew where to watch in the recap to get the gorgeous couple sight:

Adam and Anne at Staples in usual Adam's seats, April 2nd 2010

It was overcute to search for Getty’s images after the game cos the ones that were taken showed Adam on his funniest and most tender behaviour to Anne.

Adam Levine and Anne V at Lakers Game 2 April 2010

He makes all those cute and silly faces to her (and in the game recap you actually see he’s constantly arm wrapping her… awwww. So incredibly cute. I can’t help. I adore to watch them together… ), and her way to laugh just melts me.

Soooooo cute.

His ongoing love for junk food still also incredibly cute (Anne, please… don’t follow him there or your top model body will be affected. Don’t play with fire… please!)

Karim said watchin the pics:

“Adam explains to Anne his need to cut hair… unless she doesn’t want to disappear in a black wave of Elvis Hair…”.

LOL.

I love the way Adam is a gesticulating person.

That’s very similar to the way Italians talk and mime their words along.

It’s oh so very cute and funny to watch.

And he looks so at ease aside her.

I love that sight.

I truly do and can’t help me there.

Ah!

Kobe Bryant is a Laker For Life!!!

Of course, it took me enough to leave Internet and The God Kobe Bryant signed the much anticipated extension with the Lakers Family (never had a doubt… never), leaving me in the no chance to comment on that on the Lakers Blog (I will make my triumphat return there tonight…).

Kobe though worries me a bit for the knee that he keeps keeping bondaged.

Okay, playoffs are around the corner and we don’t really care about regular season so if you need rest just take it baby, okay?

(of course any Laker fan knows he won’t…).

Anyway.

The game of Easter, Karim and I actually got a chance to see it thanx to a friend Karim found in a restaurant we were dining at (game was in the morning in LA, so it was 9.30 pm in Italy…), and whom invited us to join him and more friends at a GERMAN pub in the village, so that we could have got a display of the game there.

Adam and Anne arrive at Staples to watch Lakers also on Easter 2010 😉

Due to the fact the German bartender and owner was a freak about Lakers.

It was a hilarious time.

I mean… Germans just seem not to get people can also be teetotal (like me…) and it was fun to see how they were heated equally by the game (erm…) and by my total refusal to drink anything alcoholic, especially beer.

Of course Divine A. And Sweet Anne were again at the game (switched seats though), but the game this time was as bad as it was possible to be (Ginobili proved again why I do admire him… MONSTROUS game… wow…).

It seems that Christian holidays do Lakers terribly bad this year: the Xmas Shame against the Crabs (sorry, Cavs…) and now the Easter Oddity against the Spurs.

Ouch.

Terrible cos Spurs are very likely the first face off of our playoffs and they’ve beaten us, Orlando, Crabs and Green Enemies.

Adam and Anne on Easter Game. Same seats, just switched places.

Ouch.

Sure we will win the round, but using lotta energies.

NOT good.

Oh, well… this was the game:

Hope Anne after the horrible game at least found a way to attend a Mass (she said after the game the Church she was meant to be in was closed… poor baby… Adam‘s  Jew conspiracy? LOL)…

We do know right now she is in Miami.

I thought he might have been with her but I am not sure anymore cos he tweeted just one hour ago about his current movie crush (Adam, the kid…) and this makes me think he’s still in LA.

We will decode that soon.

Let’s just hope if he is, he’s doing stuff for making my and our awaiting for June smoother.

One of the reason he might be in Miami for could be a deep talk with David La Chapelle for their first video?

I know, these are just airball talks. LOL.

I bet David would make Adam and Anne look gorgeously candy colored in it (because… I kinda give it for assured the female guest MUST be her at this point…?).

Whatever.

Time will tell.

Time holds all future keys, and I am fine with it, and I am smooth with it, and I have no fears nor frustrations about it.

I’m blessed.

Tomorrow I am 25.

And I do *seriously* rock and kick ass ;). Oh, yeah.

Be all well and happy.

Luv, Miss Z. 😉

Good morning.

Resurfacing from a more than deserved intense 10 hours night sleep (I was dead… had a monstroud time at work… I face more.. I was barely aware of myself after another Lakers watch with 3 hours sleep in total, and at the wee hours of morning…), I let you have the game recap of the Hornets Loss.

I am still so not worried.

Here you read why if any (when my post will appear in some hours I guess…).

This is the recap:

Tonight we play against the very interesting Atlanta Hawks. I will follow it also cos it’s at just 1 AM and also and especially because I am gonna miss the two subsequent games as you know (the two home one against Jazz and Kings. It bummers me cos I know *somebody* will be there most definitely, and who knows maybe in company too…).

Talkin about *somebody* and *somebody else* I just like to see how the always high on top care of Adam for privacy (just take a look at what he says of reality tv and people slashing out for everyone to see their private lives, and you get the whole measure of it, which is just one of the many reasons for which I like his brain…) has moved Anne in being really quiet about everything.

Cancelling opening Location from tweets and everything.

Great move girl.

This is how it has to be.

I am glad of this all, cos it just proves my point of the whole rooting in for them.

And it’s still lovely to guess what they are up to, thanx to crossing tweets of them (they tweet merely when they are separated actually, but it’s SO sweet to understand what they are/have been up to while together though)…

It’s a tender game so let’s just waste some time in recap, before I will make your jaw dropp off with the cute fact of the day (night for me actually).

The other day Adam tweeted his ongoing love for his favourite movie of all time (you know it, it’s E.T., and the fact THAT is always makes my heart melt in tenderness… you know what I think of that already), and unsurprisingly shortly after we got the news Russian Sweet Fairy was heading back to NYC (missing the flight actually… cos it must be uneasy to leave at a certain point. Awwww. *sweet*… we all understand Anne. We all do… Isn’t love such a great miracle? I’m a lightweight. Still. ;)).

Seems though that E.T. magic worked well with her cos while in New York she misses more Italian Cooking LA Spots (Adam amends some of his food taste with some great choices luckely…) and easily E.T. witnessing (awwww. All together again… awwww).

In the maintime, seems also that beautiful Russian Fairy is actually trying to get a driver’s licence.

Good luck girl.

If it’s a California one… especially good luck (eeeek…. LA roads are hell…).

But what was her Prince doing while she was struck on books for tsting drivers?

Oh, boy… that is what actually pushed me writing this update with this idiot smile on my face… Adam, while I was asleep, just once more filled me with amazement for the adorable creature he manages to be.

Strange creature and all of his own kind… but amazing one.

Because he can start a tweeting session with PORN (oh, camon, don’t we all love it? And then his dirty mind about all can’t truly be a surprise to anyone, can it? I find it just so extremely fun… and so you should. If not, man, you miss so much of the life fun I pity you… ;)), and then just become the most adorable, down to Earth person ever.

Like This:

“Stuck in studio. If you love Sir Paul as much as I do. Meet me at the chevron on the corner of la brea and sunset. Tickets await. Hurry.”

The place where hours ago Adam became Santa 😉

Of course he had to specify it wasn’t a hoax: but anyone who knows how he truly natural and naturally loveable he is would have NEVER doubt he was actually meaning every single word.

So he finally landed the tickets and well… on a scale from 1 to 10, how much that person meeting him to receive the present was lucky? I’d say… 1000? 😉

Adam Levine gifts you with a pair of tickets for witnessing Sir Paul McCartney… yeah.

And Marghe was guessing why we did happily buy a house in LA? Dear… here’s WHY!!!

Karim defined that “Overload Much”: gotta agree 😉

So there you go.

I wear this stupid smile even though my day is filled again cos I get amazed at cute things of life.

I get amazed at kindness and joy in people I like.

And of course, I like the fact he had to miss a gig of one of his heroes cos he’s at work, an addition to the mixing session I presume? Whatever it is, it makes me drool.

Because… Macca can come again… but magic such as THIS requests studio time and his lovely ass working over his caressingly ethereal, magical voice:

I can’t help.

Here he TRULY sings like an angel, just like Slash said.

I feel like a fist squeeze the whole of my heart and soul when I listen to this song.

It’s so emotionally driven, and my oh my, the way he sings it is so totally genius I have already listened to it (no kidding: iPod don’t lie) a total of 107 times.

And still can’t get enough.

Can’t help: when he sings, my soul tunes in.

It happens with a handful of singers to me.

And two of them are dead… (not that I wish that… camon don’t be silly… I meant it’s a miracle one just partially chose to happen: it happens, or not. When it happens, it’s a longlasting felt connection that pretty much gives you something to grab onto for a life, and doesn’t even end when the singer gifting you with that force dies. It’s a beautiful, beautiful thing to experience. Music is a bliss).

So, this afternoon after another crazy day at work I will ride Swifty.

Sun’s back after yesterday’s storm, my heart is happy and I am not tired anymore and I just feel so well.

Seems peace and love is back in all places where it should be and I wish this to just keep happening.

I leave you with a song that makes me groove these days, so that it’s not too diabethically charged and too overload in sweet this post of mine (LOL):

Enjoy.

Feel loved.

Love.

Be well.

Z. 😉

Morning, world.

Well, actually it’s almost 2 PM here and I still struck in this hotel room, watching from high ceiled door-window the beautiful labdscape of Lake Como that lays under my greedy eyes.

It has been a fantastic weekend, so far.

I  know it’s gonna keep being so.

I think my system will kill me this approaching working week, too.

We tried hard this Friday&Saturday: we went clubbing hard and we also watched all Lakers games from our Vip privées (thank you S & L for allowing me this caprice. Love you guys. But what we’ve spent in two nights valued all requests, innit? Fine though. You guys know how to make people feel awesome. We appreciated. MAJORLY…).

Well, first trial was awful:

and it truly forced me to still have a special sexual healing straight.

I begged the keys for the very, very secluded private bathroom of the club.

I rarely beg stuff (unless it serves for a lovely gaming…) but I just couldn’t remain the whole night with the bad taste of that ashaming loss attached onto my skin.

I needed a clean up.

Luckely I have yet to find a male person who’s able to deny me what I want when I truly want it.

So I had that key.

And I had my healing.

Karim gets always better in his… erm… *comforting skill* 😉

Yesterday we had a family dinner with my mum’s relatives before heading to Como Lake.

My Aunt gifted me with a great advanced birthday present.

A marvel of a diamond necklace by Chopard jewelry.

I know.

I am spoiled.

She said she wanted to gift me a watch, but she was told by mum I would never ever change my Ulysse Nardin watch.

And I wouldn’t.

Love to have one that matches Karim’s.

And then… well… who would change watch, really?

Then we went to Lake Como as I said with the same full gang as we partied out with on Friday.

The game to watch was way better (and easier… Rockets were like a bandaid promo…):

The dancing pattern was shorter though cos we had to lose one hour in the daylight savings.

While we were heading to the hotel, Karim took my hand in his and whispered he couldn’t wait for this next Friday to come.

On Friday we get back to 5 Lands in Liguria, like we did last Easter.

It’s very meaningful for us… for me mostly.

Last year, there, I realized he was going to be someone very special in my life.

I wasn’t fully aware yet how much.

But that special long weekend surely has changed my life.

That’s why there I won’t bring pc, and I will rely only on Twitter to communicate.

I won’t update blogs and I don’t know even if we will wake up to watch the Lakers (we probably will, but it’s not something we plan forcedly…).

I know, we will miss two homecourt games there and I already told everybody in the chat I won’t be part of those against Jazz and Kings

I just wanna treasure every second in Liguria which will remind me, one year later, why and thanx whom I finally met love.

I owe this to him.

And most important… I WANT to make him feel the special creature he is for me.

Weekend after that, it will be an ongoing party for my birthday.

It will start from the obvious wednesday, when we will be at my parent’s house, and then it will go on for four days straight.

Darn, I deserve, I’m Amaterasu after all ;).

I know already I will have the iPad and Slash album wrapped up to be in my hands, glorified.

I know there is an importantly consistent update in my wardrobe that my friends will provide.

I sense a new car is ready to be landing too.

I just hope it’s a small car cos… I like to lay low on cars.

Not my thing.

The week after is Paris.

Well, we will be in Paris when playoff starts.

We better organize a proper watch opportunity.

Okay missing maybe two regular season games (even though they might be two where Divine A. & Russian Fairy could be surfacing back from their retreat, which is lasting ever since they reconnected days ago… awww… how cute 😉 they have disappeared from world… awww 🙂 I so understand that. TOTALLY!!!), but playoffs are COMPLETELY a different matter.

We can’t lose a second of that.

BTW, yesterday Roma beat Inter.

We need to win in a few hours, so also Serie A can be entertaining again ;).

Right, I leave you with two songs I love and feel inspired by today:

Richard Ashcroft, first…

and then I Blame Coco ftr. my adored Robyn:

Rock on your Sunday, peeps 😉

Lotta lurve ;), Miss Z. 🙂
