Hi there everybody!

happy xmas time ;)

happy xmas time 😉

Yes yes… I kept my word and came in to sneak a proper post after the Xmas Extravagant Gifting one .

I had to put the 121212 Concert up… after we went to The XX at Alcatraz the start of this month I was thinking no musical experience could have topped it (at least for Deecember 2012) but then I witnessed that gig and went overcrazy and I decided it was a must to make all of you seeing/hearing it.

Am I good or am I wonderful?

Your pick…

After all music is my greatest passion and if you know me you weren’t surprised I chose a musical kind of little gift for you all the other day.

Please tho… be also charitable and help those in need by downloading the album that helps Sandy’s victims.

I wish I could have found also the amazing show Roberto Benigni put up for Rai 1 earlier this month (about our Constitutional Law… amazing) but unfortunately the only way to broadcast that is this one (not my video but check it because it’s amazing :)):

Take it as a further little homage to the wrapping of the year (sorry for non Italians… I am actually sad none of you can appreciate the perfection that Benigni is).

I was all up to write a super happy post.

And trust me I will…

But as I began to write after coming back to our little gem house of Ortisei after snowy happy morning… I read and watched news and I got struck with the one that amazing Rita Levi Montalcini has passed away.

Farewell, glorious Rita Levi Montalcini

Not unexpectedly… she was over 100 years old…

But I am a scientist and a woman and you can guess the fact I was 1 when she won the Nobel Prize was a sign for me in so many ways, I would later develop a proper worshipping of her; her brain, her style, her class, her devotion and passion to the mankind and FOR mankind.

So please before I go on…

Unite along me in the memory of her greatness: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rita_Levi-Montalcini

Thank you.

Now let’s go back to the proper post I was having in mind to write…

The highlights of December in Z&K’s life have been the usual ones (I am kinda routinely in this month more than in others i have come to acknowledge).

Milano in white

Milano in white

I loved to enjoy Milano under snow as well… it gets so beautiful when everything switches from stone to fairly pearly white, and the monuments seem made of ice 🙂

Karim parents’ have been here also for the Scala Première… it has been simply perfect and I did enjoy more Wagner personally; we’ve spent time with the people we love and we have also taken care of our new Ortisei House (a bijoux) and of adorable Nut (he starting to live up to the crazy version of his name 😉 and we love it… the house is happier now that he is here… Swifty keeps being unfazed by him but Nut is trying to be friends 😉 let’s see ;))

So… in a bunch of hours this 2012 will end.

We’re ending it over the magic surroundings of Dolomiti, after we’ve got to spend a wonderful Xmas with both my parents and K’s in Florence… then we also enjoyed a wonderful break there by ourselves after they left; being all loved up and witnessing my favorite ballet (Swan Lake) at Teatro Verdi.

I’me feeling so grateful as I watch the woods burn in the fireplace and while K&I are taking a sweet time going through all of our filmed 2012 moments (total of caught on video life bites… – NO KIDDING – 211.5 HOURS! More than 40 minutes for each day. If we’d average it. But we don’t. Clearly ;)).

We have had our great fun in the snow this morning and basically we are very excited to celebrate New Year with all of the crew reunited (we move towards Cortina tomorrow for the party… I love there but I love more to have our little cozy place in this way quieter town in the valley ;))

Nutty ;)

Nutty 😉

Nut is back home, we haven’t brought him here unlike we did in Florence because we would be at risk of losing him in the snow… and then my parents are really good at pampering him when we are not home.

Swifty has received just half an hour ago a video message (yes… I video message my horse… so what? 😉 ).

In just a little over a couple of hours Marghe will bring here little princess Eva and then my New Year’s holidays will be complete (glad they traveled today because yesterday it took us A LIFE to arrive in Ortisei from Florence.. today they shouldn’t find trouble on the roads as everybody is already at their destination… hopefully!).

Darn I am SO in love with that kid it’s unreal.

I can’t fathom it. I just live it like a blessing; probably the greatest one this year which is ending’s gifted me with.

Oh, and by the way…

OF COURSE MAYAN GOT IT WRONG.

Even though the fact Berlusconi is up again for Prime Minister Running is a definitive sign that humanity SHALL deserve some punishment (or at least Italy… but on the other hand Berlusconi MIGHT be the punishment… :/).

one of my 3 Xmas trees at home ;)

one of my 3 Xmas trees at home 😉

But yeah, Obama saved the world’s ass by being sent a second time in the White House so I am pretty hopeful 2013 won’t suck.

Actually (beside sporty troubles for my teams, beloved Milan and Lakers) I really have to say 2012 has been great, despite natural tragedies and the quakes and the fact humans still treat our poor planet so stupidly.

Cern has found Higgs’ Boson and science is taking a step further towards the infinite; my job and K’s are pretty solidly set up; I am ready to have a super fulfilled incoming year but at the same time we have already planned where to go for my Birthday; K’s one; our anniversary month; and just about in a month and a half we will be staying quite a lot in the USA and while there, beside work and family time and some other stuff we will check Maroon 5 live in a series of gigs.

Madison Square Garden… we gotcha 😉

I love to be as organized as possible… so I feel fine in knowing pretty much already all of the major schedule for 2013…

But that won’t mean if some novelty sneaks in I won’t be delighted about it 😉

Talking about babies, before I go detailing as per usual the post also about them, let me share (we still in festive mood) the free package of gifts iTunes gave of them just the other day, because that stays in between personal stuff and chronicles doesn’t it? ;).

This one is the package I am talking of:

Maroon 5 Holiday Gift from iTunes

Part 1:

Part 2:

Part 3:

But before I dwell into M5 more let me just say that in short form I am grateful for all that 2012 has been because of:

1) Karim (no need to say anything else right?);

Thank You for Dolomiti ;)

Thank You for Dolomiti 😉

2) Our families and their always amazing support;

3) Eva;

4) My crew;

5) His crew;

6) The fact both mashed amazingly in one of the best Summer vacations we’ve ever had in Southern Italy;

7) The fact that I keep having the best job I could have possibly dreamed for;

8) K’s achievements this year which have made all of the families so proud;

9) Chances;

10) Changes.

Thank You for Florence :)

Thank You for Florence 🙂

Oh, and then as usual THANK YOU for Curiosity/Traveling/Art/Music.

I could never live without any of those.

To those who keep hinting at the subject… the answer is NOT.

Don’t expect a pregnancy by yours truly ANYTIME soon ;).

So 2013 won’t be the Year of The Child Of Destiny (and I don’t mean Blue Ivy’s supposed brother/sister).

Give up to the plan because K&I just don’t look out for kids (yet) 🙂

It’s just that we keep on willing to do some things yet which would be problematic to do with little kids or infants to take care after.

We have a very clear idea on what it takes to be a parent and we are not ready to completely revolution our existences yet with that choice.

A thing instead we will definitely do will be to keep on cheering to THIS MAN and his impact on the sport we both love so dearly.

Laadies and Gentlemen, BOW to His Perfection Of Athletic Strive:

Youngest player to break 30000 points. LEGENDARY Kobe Bryant

Youngest player to break 30000 points. LEGENDARY Kobe Bryant

Ok…

What else?

I think I have covered it all and most important… I have to move through this writing of a post quickly or when little Eva will come she will try to write herself onto the iPad 😉

She is already very attracted to technology and since her mum and techs are like water and oil, and her dad and techs are like fire and paper, I suppose she is taking already hints from her devoted Auntie Z., namely Geek Of The Universe 😉

This Morning ;) Over here ;)

This Morning 😉 Over here 😉

So okay, let’s move!

I think it’s time to switch and start to teach you about how also Maroon 5 shall be VERY fond of this year which has just started to fade.

I have many and many excerpts that testify a WONDERFUL charting year for them; Overexposed is the TENTH best selling album WORLDWIDE and after the Billboard Charts for the year 2012 have surfaced it’s clear that the guys are back with a vengeance and stronger than ever.

2012 Worldwide Album Chart

These up above were the worldwide charts, which yet don’t even include the last week of the year, in which both their Album and their songs are continuously increasing in copies sold 😉

Please note that also the following Year-To-Date chart in Billboard covers only from December 2011 to the full of NOVEMBER 2012 so actually Overexposed, Payphone and One More Night (and also Moves Like Jagger…*sigh*) actually sold EVEN MORE and were at HIGHER position by the time the World Charts were completed.

This is the Billboard Triumph (note also how Adam charted also with Gym Class Heroes’ “Stereo Hearts” collaboration…) of beloved Maroon 5 this year 2012:

Billboard Year End Charts of 2012 -Dec 2011 to full Nov 2012 ratio

Billboard Year End Charts of 2012 -Dec 2011 to full Nov 2012 ratio

Overexposed is practically already PLATINUM in the USA… it’s past easily the 900.000 copies sold already before Xmas sales so it’s just a matter of a couple of weeks before the very prestigious mark is past (all of their sets have been Platinum and Multi Platinum in their home Country); worldwide, the set is well over 2.2 millions copies already and in these times of selling struggles it’s an amazing achievement especially because it has been available ONLY after the end of June, so it has sold so much (and deservingly, I love the album because it’s pop perfection) in just 6 months on sale (and unlike what it happened with Pink’s set they have almost never had a continuous discount sale policy going on).

Billboard best selling Digital Albums of all Time

Billboard best selling Digital Albums of all Time

Maroon 5 have been a force to be reckoned with in charts since their debut, so it’s a great thing that a decade later they keep being selling this strong, and that they have had multiple number one hits from EACH era of them.

This is amazing, and it’s testified by Year-To-End charts worldwide also this 2012, with Payphone and One More Night (as well as STILL Moves Like Jagger, which you know tho I am not happy about) being a wonderful double diamonds pair encrusted in their 10-years-of-successes crown.

They are the only BAND achieving the end to date chart with TWO songs in the worldwide Top Ten of Singles.

AMAZING:

www.mediatraffic.de screen capture 2012-12-29-14-28-22

I still not happy about the fact they chose Daylight as third single… the song is not really one of the best in Overexposed and the fact they decided to kill its chance of moderate success even more with a video which is far too long and absolutely unappealing to the masses (it’s not particularly original either, if I have to confess) makes me cringe…

But eh, we’re talking about the band who decided to not release either Stutter or Nothing Lasts Forever or The Sun from previous albums so it’s clear they like to kill their best momentum regularly, don’t they? ;).

PJ Morton at the KIIS Jingle Ball

I think eventually the song might reach somewhere between 15/10th position on the charts out of the fact airplay will be on their side like it always happens, but I get scared when I hear Daylight is Adam’s fav song on the album (well, his fav on the previous ones were the similarly super-boring Never Gonna Leave This Bed and Won’t Go Home Without You so I shall be used by now on his not so great picks… *sigh*), because it’s honestly so vanilla it’s hard to get passionate about it (I do like his vocals on it tho… when he hits his lower register I always appreciate).

It’s not that Daylight is a bad song… it is a very nice song but nowhere near as smashing regarding its single potential as Doin’ Dirt, The Man Who Never Lied, Wipe Your Eyes and of course the best pop song on the album, the pop perfection which is Lucky Strike are.

Beside the chart triumph (which hopefully Daylight won’t ruin anytime soon) in December it happened a lot to our kids.

We have to start with the fact they were supposed to play as the surprise act KIIS LA Radio Jingle Ball… but as Adam addressed via twitter his throat was damaged so they had to pull out

Only James and PJ actually went there, because Adam had to save his vocal chords for something way more important (even though fans were cute to him and probably hated the fact Will.I.Am substitued Maroon 5 – ewww -)…

The way more important event Adam had to save his voice for was of course the Nashville based Grammy Nomination Concert Broadcast:

Now his voice was still quite affected BUT the important thing was of course that Maroon 5 GOT TWO NODS!!!!

And then it’s always amazing to look at the guys onstage and it pumps me for next year!!!

I am so happy about the fact Overexposed got its share of glory too!!!

I am pretty convinced Fun. will take home all Maroon 5 have also been nominated for (the fact they are also up for Album and Song Of The Year easily tells me that) but the fact Payphone and ALSO Overexposed were reckoned in such a crowded and full year for pop is AMAZING!!!!!

It also testifies that my taste is awesome because I have always said Overexposed is a WONDERFUL pop record (I like how dear Jonah Hill got immediate cheer for his bro Adam… so cute ;)) 🙂

I never fail musically… and all the nominations are amazing to my taste this year; best bit being the obvious fact dreadful Bieber was snubbed, as deserved, and also I am happy James’ girlfriend Ali Tamposi (a dear friend of Behati now) got her moment of shine in the noms too as an author – James is so proud of her!) 😉

Never to stay too quiet, Adam went to Chelsea Lately during the festive episodes (wearing again a dapper suit) to clarify among other stuff (or to reinforce) some statements out of December GQ which put him in a boiling seat:

Adam doesn’t hate the kid Honey Boo Boo… he hates the exploiting of a kid by his parents for fame.

put this in your mind when reading December GQ where he put those on his personal Punch list:

GQ USA 2012 Collage Adam levine punches trash reality TV and Honey Boo Boo parents

GQ USA 2012 Collage Adam levine punches trash reality TV and Honey Boo Boo parents

I laugh when really not smart people blast him for opinions which are actually quite deep and rightful (although sure he could use a little less of cursing when stating them… but he’s unfiltered and he won’t restrain for the sake of appearances…); surely he is proud of his opinions, in every way, and he won’t bend at his ideas for keeping public quiet.

I love Adam’s realness there; I appreciate his honesty more and more.

I love how he won’t dismiss his deep belief about how life shall be, I love how he won’t hide his political stances for the sake of selling more in general; I love how he will keep tellin in your face that he believes half of the tv the general public watches and love is simply pure trash damaging brains…

Now if he only would step off that awful Karaoke show too… I could finally be COMPLETELY proud.

Can Adam Levine's tv future jobs be only like this one and not like THE Fuckery? thanx ;)

Can Adam Levine’s tv future jobs be only like this one and not like THE Fuckery? thanx 😉

I am up for him to keep on trying acting like in AHS though… I also welcome possible guest starring appearances in Sons Of Anarchy, and anything related with comedy 🙂

Ops… before I forget.. here’s the scan of the magazine I couldn’t put on last post I was talking of my likes… the Tv Guide Hottest List number:

Hot Liste 2012 TV Guide

Hot Liste 2012 TV Guide

I just adore everything amazing which is happening to Adam instead because in my book (and even tho so many times he does his best to make me regret my admire, The Fuckery That Awful Karaoke Show that thing being the best reason so far to this type of dismantling feeling) he is just so talented and full of qualities… I love how he also stays true to his Jewish roots even tho he doesn’t fake a Belief which is not fully his (and also this is so honest and real, it makes me adore the person he is).

Then of course… Adam is handsome.

There’s no other possible way to put it in words ban to state the obvious: he’s gorgeous and he also gets more attractive with age (darn you devil! ;)).

news.menshealth.com screen capture 2012-12-29-15-48-23

This is also getting noticed multiple and multiple times, not so surprisingly, in many of the years end countdown of various sorts.

But being really good looking (also in a very European way, which doubles the effect to me) is only one of his many qualities, truth be told.

m.instyle.com screen capture 2012-12-29-15-50-32

I find it funny how ladies, girls, gays and (even if they deny it often) straight men have finally realized how amazing Adam Levine is 😉

I knew since I first knew about Maroon 5 in 2003 ;).

I also really love the guys in Maroon 5 because their creativity spreads and never gets too constricted in just one shell, may that shell even be their own band.

So I am proud and happy about how James is experiencing indie success with JJAMZ (Katy Perry is a stan for them ;)) and how they have even opened for No Doubt when Maroon 5 came back from Nashville.

It’s not a surprise given the strict relationship and friendship Maroon 5 have with both katy and No Doubt guys but still always a good thing.

Then of course Adam is THE KING of Hip Hop collaboration since the time he did Live Again with the Ying Yang Twins:

Which is why he collaborated lately with 50 Cent on the amazing (and still underrated yet) My Life.

Here’s Fiddy speaking of this all: Listen and read ;):

click onto for more 50 Cent and Adam Levine collaboration

click onto for more 50 Cent and Adam Levine collaboration

It was also due to have Adam featured both in Wiz Khalifa and The Game’s latest efforts.

But while the Wiz thing will surface later, so I was not surprised it was not yet included in his O.N.I.F.C. album yet, I actually went mumbling when after having even gotten a title for it in Rolling Stone Magazine, Adam and The Game’s “EPIC” collaboration on  his just dropped Jesus Piece was nowhere to be found.

I guessed it was all due to The Game’s feud with 50 Cent and the fact My Life had just dropped, but (since I may not have been the only one questioning the rapper about it, wondering if thing got dread between Adam and him) The Game was quick in erasing doubts about it all (and now I wonder if the supposed awesome track he did with Adam, will lately see the green light to be outed, which I hope of course):

The Game loves Adam Levine ;)

The Game loves Adam Levine 😉

I love the way rappers (even the most badasses of them) always love Adam invariably 😉

There’s something so gangsta about him they cannot refute? 😉

I know there is 😉

He’s so badass he has an ANGEL for girlfriend and yes, that is what he deserves for being a great artist (even though he would say he’s not) and a good man, and I say this knowing he has certain flaws, but that makes him just more pleasant to me, as anybody has some (well I haven’t got any, but you know I’m unique 😉 – please detect some irony ok? -).

Yes, Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo are still together and still happy and still VERY RECLUSIVE about their own love (the way it should be).

I hope this relationship goes throughout the incoming new year as greatly and as secretly as it has been driven for the whole of May / June / July / August / September / October / November / December of 2012.

Let her wish us a great holiday time through her Angel status ;):

The perfection of Behati (both in herself and as Adam’s better half) is indeed another thing I am VERY grateful about regarding this 2012 which is ready to end.

She has ALL of my approvals as Adam’s girlfriend and again in this December she has proved how splendid and fit for the coveted, but also very uneasy role of being Adam’s receptacle of passion&love she is and she has proved this repeatedly (again… and again… and again… always topping what I thought couldn’t even be improved… always witnessing how Bee is able to do it instead).

This A.P.W.T.C.S.A.P.C (African Princess With The Contagious Smile And Perfect Cheekbones, if you wonder 😉 and measurements of a goddess, as stated by FabSugar) has rescued Adam from the darkest of fake poseur pretenders to bring him back to life, to a marvelous mood, to a very private and real personal life, and to love and serenity:

Behati's perfect everything

Behati’s perfect everything

She has spent with Adam quite a LOT of time but again, she just didn’t let the world sneak in.

Which I think is why his family likes her the way they do (not that I believe they are pushing Adam to marry… they would NEVER step into his life that way, and moreover we know Adam is not keen to marry, especially until he has this kind of ongoing career… but sure Behati is loved by the whole of Adam’s family very much, of this I have a certain notion).

Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine with mum, family, relatives, friends (and the tea-cup pig he gifted her with) in December 2012

I laugh when people say she doesn’t work.

She does it, just the amount she needs to, and then she does what she wants, which in her case since May is being by her handsome, super sexy and adorable boyfriend’s side.

Would you do any differently BEING IN LOVE FOR REAL LIKE SHE IS?

Adam and his perfection. And Behati can have that each time she likes ;)

Adam and his perfection in GQ list. And Behati can have that each time she likes 😉

I mean… would YOU waste I am not saying days… but even MINUTES away from THIS, especially when you are in the position of being there to have sex with him at any given time (my husband knows what i think of Adam 😉 he knows this so I can say it loudly 😉 and he’s not jealous ;)):

I guess not.

And that’s why she stays by his side at any given time and fights for those minutes 😉

The way anyone who claims to be a red-blooded female would 😉 (I guess Behati REALLY likes sex too 😉 )

I guess if you are in love and care about your relationship, you work and then you miss not even a minute before being back with the one who owns your heart.

If Behati wouldn’t… if she would waste time away from him when she is not doing her things… well that would mean she were not in love.

But that’s not her case ;).

Behati Prinsloo for VS 2013 new items. Does this accounts for works or is it just fun? ;)

Behati Prinsloo for VS 2013 new items. Does this accounts for works or is it just fun? 😉

Behati works and does what she has to, don’t worry… it’s just that she is not pimpin herself, maybe because she is down to Earth for real and not for publicity 😉 and thinks people will see the fruits of her work when they come out, without no need to advertise herself constantly ;).

As you see from her pics then, she loves music and photography (and animals ;)) so her interests are just way wider than just her job as a model, and maybe she likes to tweet more about those things in her life than let people updated on her sets locations…

But yeah, she works 😉 she does well enough yep.

Behati for instance has also worked WHILE being in Los Angeles aside Adam, both in November and in December, courtesy of this man with the help of whom she has done more shots for VS and also NEXT UK in those occasions too:

Ben Watts on GQ Usa Dec 2012

Ben Watts on GQ Usa Dec 2012

She is contracted by VS, and she might as well live it off ONLY her Angel status, as that contract is by far the most lucrative one in fashion.

But it’s not like she has ONLY that at the moment… she is also STILL the face of NEXT UK and in fact in December she had to work also on that.

She has not to rush the world for catching a not so big dime unlike others…

She is doing fine and she has already from 2008 the contract ALL models would KILL to have.

Girl is right where she stands… She has worked always since the start and just to recall some good things… take this old video always cute which explains you who Behati is:

But let’s go in order.

Behati left Adam’s side in Los Angeles (he was keeping doing THAT Karaoke Show live so he couldn’t join her there) to be in New York for the promotion of Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show broadcast.

But before that, as you know, she had her first acting role displayed in Hawaii 5-0 which she promoted as well along her fellow Angel Alessandra:

After that (I loved how grateful she was for the opportunity… she literally didn’t know before the taping of the show in November she would have been cast, and she flew in Hawaii after the taping directly… so cute! Of course this acting opportunity made her immediately more talked about  from UK to France  to Italy (love it!) and beyond but she sure did a great job for being someone who never even tried acting before or thought she would…) she had a series of major tv appearances for the promotion of the show, and that is a wonderful way to see her bubbly, lively, amazingly fresh personality&face working the cameras with natural charme and zero fronting.

Ratings were really good and so was the feedback, so much the showrunner expresses delight over her and to her 🙂 :

I really love her way to be.

She comes off as really relatable and with zero pretentiousness about her.

To be naturally funny and not stuck up at all must play a major role on why Adam’s been so attached to her (especially in contrast with his miserable past earlier this year):

And of course there is the show.

Well, Behati out of Pink and into the main line meant essentially that Pink was awful without her and she SHONE as a bright diamond in her three outfits inn the other segments.

Many were surprised she transitioned so well into the main sexy Angel role and not anymore the teeny Pink one but.. are you serious?

Of course she shone and was super sexy… and of course now that she is 23 she can also rock the more womanly main lines of VS… she is a tomboy, but she is also extraordinarily feminine and beautiful.

Behati in VSFS 2012

She’s Adam Levine’s choice for companionship then, and he could never be with someone not sexy (it’s just that Behati is not only sexy… she is so much more than just sexy and moreover she does sexy very classy and without looking or moving like a pornstar, always keeping her cool without looking like she’s trying way too hard ;)):

After the show broadcast (which was watched in a special location by all the VS people, including angels and models) there was a party and Bee was lovely there too (dressed very rock-ish again, too).

Behati Prinsloo model of the Week Fashion TV

She basically was one of the standout of the whole thing, as she deserved to be (and well… she can steal the spot by herself, no need of her man to get limelight…)

Adam was working for the his show live in Los Angeles while his woman was kickin ass left and right, but sure he is proud of her and of the fact she doesn’t need him to get recognition.

Also I laughed so much when she cutely hinted in the interviews that she “Loves dating.. dating is the best thing ever!” as the unique hint that she gave about the state of her personal life ;).

I am also glad she consoled poor Erin after her breakup with modelizer Di Caprio… poor Erin, if she would have been more discreet she would have probably ended marrying him (so are saying supposed informed people… I don’t really think Leo will marry any soon ;)).

But back at Bee…

I get distraught easily it seems today 😉

Must be the snow around 😉

On december 6th, while Adam and Maroon 5 were in Nashville for the Grammy gig, Behati optimized her time doing another job  (you know… because she does nothing with her life as idiots say ;)).

That job is something we don’t know anything about, beside the fact she did shot with a famous model actor from The Games of Thrones ( I am curious to know about this, really :)).

Then even if people didn’t get informed about it, beside a sort of cryptic little tweet between Adam and Behati sharing views on the Paleo Diet and the state of pumpkins in that type of prescriptive diet (only educated people could guess ;)), she went VERY quickly back to her man’s side before having to fly away again, direction Miami, for another shooting for NEXT UK with the dear Ben Watts (this always because she doesn’t work right? ;)).

I admire so much the way she is capable to work and still never miss out on her role of girlfriend.

It’s so much that she is showing in these months…

I never get how people can hate on her… but yes, jealousy is a beast I guess.

She shared a few pictures from her working time in Miami, and the fact she was sharing those instead of private ones (and the fact she doesn’t call paparazzi up for catchin herself along with Adam when they are together) made the usual crazy people start to guess she might have no longer been in the blessed spot of being Levine’s girlfriend.

Like she has EVER tweeted anything personal before…

*sigh* 😉 will the haters ever learn?

But more on that later ;)…

But of course Behati was there just doing work and having fun because she is a natural cheerful person and very ready to be with friends type of girl and it’s the easiest of things to get attached to her and want to spend time with her.

Behati in Miami, dec 2012

Behati in Miami, dec 2012

While in there Ben Watts (who’s very fond of Behati) shared two videos with her.

One was a cheerful holiday video with the typical Ben Watts’ style (quite La Chapelle but sassier) which was also comprehensive of parts with Bee which were recorded in Los Angeles in November AND December:

Then this little funny gem which had me rolling and which is so essentially Behati:

When she tweeted that she was about to take a trip, and the work was clearly on the verge of completion, it started some drama: people interpreted her tweets (as per usual) the wrong way, and others thought she would have headed to South Africa for holidays.

Except she did not.

the gorgeousness of Bee

the gorgeousness of Bee

She flew immediately… guess where?

THAT’s RIGHT.

Right where she BELONGS, namely by Adam’s side.

In Los Angeles again.

No time wasted.

No tricks around.

Work done… ticket held, airplane set…

And she was right beside her love again.

AWWWWWWW 🙂

“If That Ain’t Love Then I Don’T Know What Love Is…” 😉

Once again she managed to pass every day there undercover; she went to all tapings of The Fuckery that thing but of course without making anybody aware outside of her real life people and Adam’s people (which are now hers as well, deal with this fact because this is how it is); she stayed all holidays with Adam and his family and the only glimpses of her (beside the private pictures at The Voice Wrap Party which you can see randomly here too, and a funny note on some strange tweets she tweeted that night she lately left ;)) and the only picture paps were able to snap was THIS:

Adam Levine and Behati prinsloo in Los Angeles on Dec 20th 2012

Adam Levine and Behati prinsloo in Los Angeles on Dec 20th 2012

See?

So many days together in the town of paps and they never get sneaked into.

Guess why?

Easy answer.

It’s easy not to get papped when you don’t call the paps up… and Behati and Adam WOULD NEVAH call the scum of the Earth to snap them because well… they don’t need that trash and they are secure in their real love 😉 so much they keep it for themselves and don’t display it for the public.

Because THEIR LOVE IS NOT A PUBLIC ISSUE… Their love is a real feeling they have and protect from intrusive watch, which is exactly how they will make it stronger.

There was some major hilarity coming also from the fact Adam didn’t take Behati at the Lakers Xmas game (that we WOOOOOOON yes  despite some scary referees;)), because naive (or just plain misinformed/not so bright) people were assuming just because Behati was clearly there in LA with Adam, he would have taken her there (because she would rush for a photo op with him right? ah, no… wait: that is NOT Behati’s habit… I vaguely remember that was the norm earlier though with some other people maybe).

Little note for all the usual stupid haters of Bee who have NO CLUE whatsoever on Adam’s – very routinely in many cases – patterns of life.

Listen up, bunch of not so bright people: Adam Levine has ALWAYS taken his closest family members (and signed: especially grandparents) on Xmas Lakers games as his guests.

Adam cherishes his family a LOT, and that is his way to rewards his eldest, by keeping them close and honor them in special days.

When he didn’t bring his grandpa to Staples Center last Xmas it was because he was forced by his then very untrue “girlfriend” to bring her instead, in such an obnoxious way he couldn’t refuse it.

New Behati Dec 12 Pam Love

New Behati Dec 12 Pam Love

They were already done by then as a couple by Xmas 25th of 2011, they had already falloffs in rows and quarrels leading to breakups and she didn’t receive the ring she wanted for Xmas again and that was the first game of NBA after 2011 lockout so she needed BADLY some photo ops (her real reason to be with Adam) (especially considering it was clear the couple wouldn’t last, so she had to milk Adam a bit more as much as she could then) therefore she forced Adam to take her there instead of his grandpa.

But it wouldn’t have happened if Adam wouldn’t have been pushed hard for the sake of tranquility to switch his usual Xmas choices as for partners to bring courtside that day (whenever you don’t believe the fact that relationship was already a front by last December, just listen to Overexposed… The Man Who Never Lied was written those days, along Doin’ Dirt ;)).

Just to reinforce this explanation, please notice that in 2010, when that couple was still solid (but I guess his previous girlfriend was still in it only for the fame even then, if all the reports I got about her after the split are true… or even if only half of them are), this was whom Adam went with at Xmas game… guess who?

GRANDPA:

Adam Levine ALWAYS takes his grandpa at Xmas Lakers games unless forced by whiny users to take them for photo ops instead

Adam Levine ALWAYS takes his grandpa at Xmas Lakers games unless forced by whiny users to take them for photo ops instead

Now the interesting bit you shall take out from the article excerpt I wrote back then is that while Adam’s previous girlfriend went to the movies WITH HER FRIENDS that Xmas of 2010 when she could not exploit Adam on the Lakers court for photo ops Behati went as well to the movies BUT she went there with Adam’s MUM and Adam’s brother:

Behati went watching movies with Patsy and Michael while Adam was courtside at lakers Xmas Game with his grandfather. FAMILY TIES ;)

Behati went watching movies with Patsy and Michael while Adam was courtside at lakers Xmas Game with his grandfather. FAMILY TIES 😉

And of course the amount of tweets by her, about all of this family time she is sharing once again in December with Levines and Noahs are ZERO: others tweets… never does Behati.

Because she cares and protects the realness of her relationship and would never dare to break Levines & Noahs’ request for privacy, so it’s up to them share, but she would never ever break their will of protection for their personal lives.

This is amazing, especially now that Adam is one of the most popular celebrities in the world and she could so easily gain so much more fame just by sharing a bit of his private life around (others have mastered the technique in the past, with obvious fame reward… but Bee doesn’t look out for that… she looks after Adam).

Adam is in the list of darn CNN celebrities of the year 2012… and yet Behati Prinsloo, his girlfriend of 8 months almost constantly spent by his side, has never ever tried to use his name in her favor. NEVER YET.

Which is why Adam’s family likes her and allows her a tad of things, unlike what happened before with other people.

Behati and cousin Alice Noah ;) just the other day ;)

Behati and cousin Alice Noah 😉 just the other day 😉

Behati is also treasured by all of Adam’s friends, all of his protegees  and protegees of friends and has developed special relationships with James’ girlfriend too; I love to get surprised for instance by Milo’s tweets about their ways to bond, just like when he shared the Xmas Tree Trimming party pics on Instagram.

But the point is Behati deserves all this, because SHE IS TRUE to Adam, she has never ever used him, and she is always there for him: it’s basically already 8 months they are together and out of these 8 months she has spent a good 5 to 6 with him constantly (an impressive percentage, which speaks volumes: she works, she executes her things then no matter what she joins him back wherever and whenever possible and sometimes she does it even when it’s uneasy or crazy to do so, for even just a weekend like it did happen this December in between heavy working schedules. Basically Behati is the perfect girlfriend for Adam. And I LOVE IT).

Take this video detailing the couple history in this very busy December (busy for both… but still they managed 3 out of 4 weeks together IN FULL… round of applauses again ;)):

Just to understand how much Bee is like Adam and despise paps, look at the face she made (or at the one she DIDN’T) when she was snapped stepping into Adam’s car in the streets of LA on December 27th:

Behati Prinsloo in Los Angeles Dec 27th 2012 steps into Adam Levine car

Little side note: as this couple is completely private, stupid obnoxious people keep falter and freak anytime for a few days there are not news of them together.

I say this because around the middle of the month I got crazy people’s requests about my acknowledge of the status of Adam & Bee’s coupling, just because a few days before I had written to my friend that Adam had been at Teddy’s on December 6th (like people cannot have fun with friends once they are coupled… and yes, Teddy’s is a special place for Adam but he got there cos it was renewed to party with crew after he went back from Nashville and the Grammy Nomination gig… is that a crime?).

This was some of the pics I got sent about his Teddy’s outing but NO ONE reported to me he did ANYTHING wrong or disrespectful to his lover there:

Since Behati was yet working that day and since (as usual) when the pair re-met for a super quick hot time in between her working duties (she went also to Miami to shoot another NEXT UK campaign just hours after they could re-embrace) they DIDN’T INFORM the world (and why should have they…) beside some usually amazing cryptic tweets in their own language people keep NOT understanding (and which I find amazing) crazy obsessed people started to question the state of their relationship (again… just because I guess they have no life of their own?).

Also, I have been told, because some stupid kid had believed words put on a FAKE Adam’s Facebook and Instagram.

LITTLE NEWS, idiots: ADAM HAS NO FACEBOOK AND NO INSTAGRAM.

You stupid little people please go check the header of OFFICIAL MAROON 5 & MEMBERS list of their REAL social accounts by clicking on (guess what?) the OFFICIAL site and just take a look… ADAM HAS NO FACEBOOK NOR INSTAGRAM:

Adam Levine has NO Facebook and NO Instagram...

Adam Levine has NO Facebook and NO Instagram…

Sadly, since brain is (way too often) a quality miss by way too many people, the fact (I repeat: as USUAL) Behati and Adam don’t share their lives for strangers, I got these requests by people (some of them were polite and not harassing though) which I answered the only way I could: namely, that I had no clue about their couple’s state because it’s not my biz, but only theirs, and that people should stop have interest in what they clearly want to remain PRIVATE .

I got later informed how crazy freaks created multiple twitter accounts harassing on Adam blaming him for having fun after dumping Behati (?), while some other crazy ones were harassing Behati telling her how happy they were Adam had finally dumped her (?).

THIS IS INSANE and people need to get a life.

Pronto.

Behati stays discreetly aside Adam as he plays drum at The Voice wrap party, here with Blake Shelton on the other side of him

Behati stays discreetly aside Adam as he plays drum at The Voice wrap party, here with Blake Shelton on the other side of him

Now… PLEASE listen.

BEHATI and ADAM are together NOT for the fans; they have no duty towards fans about informing them about the state of their relationship; this because the fans are so regarding THEIR JOBS (which are public) but the fact is those fans have NO RIGHTS AT ALL to know about their lives together because ADAM and BEE’s life is THEIR OWN THING, and it’s a PRIVATE thing, not a public one.

Again… Adam is a VERY reserved person.

All his trash talk about how people put their lives (and their sons’ ones) up in reality shows for strangers to watch don’t suggest you ENOUGH how he hates when private things go way too public?

Anytime he states he can’t stand reality shows about celebrities doing stupid things strangers shouldn’t witness or be interested in (KartTrashian, anyone?) or the way he has stated MANY times he hates kids pageant contests and even more reality TV about the life of kids (yeah, Honey boo Boo and that awful family exploiting), can’t you realize he says it all because he CLEARLY thinks private life shall be PRIVATE, this even if (or even more if) you are a celebrity?

Sure, in his previous relationship he was FORCED to public display his lovelife because that was all his former “girlfriend” was interested in and he fell for her and her request before getting back to his proper senses… but lucky  for him now Behati is in the relationship for THE TRUTH of it and for HIM and not his fame, so he can be as private as he likes to be and this means NO PHOTO OPS staged by his half calling paparazzi, no tweets to reveal everything , no “shows for crowds”.

And THIS IS HOW A REAL RELATIONSHIP must work.

Stunning Behati Prinsloo in dim lights

This is why Adam’s family is so fond of Behati.

This is why I hope this lasts a lot for them (and I repeat for the hundredth time: if it would end tomorrow, still the story between Adam and Bee would have been THE BEST RELATIONSHIP he has had so far in his – famous – life for how true and sincere it was on her part for sure); because Behati is there for Adam for real, and this is a pretty new thing for him, who’s always been used so much in recent years.

All of the fans who crave for their privacy to be outed… please get a life of yourself and stop this insanity. They don’t owe a thing that is private to their fans (and true fans would never claim they do); they owe to fans their public works and jobs, but there is a line to never be crossed nonetheless by fans and that line is the real life of the person(s) they follow.

That doesn’t belong to anybody but the people involved.

End of it.

Just wish A&B well and be happy for them and mind your own business.

They won’t share their lives with fans… and if you were real fans you would actually BE HAPPY about this.

By now after so many months that they are together and this reserved behavior is the norm, everyone shall be used to this, then why you are not?

Behati chats up with James’ girlfriend Ali Tamposi while admiring Adam at The Voice Wrap Party

You should be happy that they protect their life and love so strictly, because that makes them genuine to each other…

I definitely am happy about that because this is how Adam has always been before he got so much exploited for two years prior Behati arrived to save him (I don’t blame him for having been so hardly fooled by that previous person because I as well got fooled by her and believed for a longtime she was real and true, and despite having my fashion-related mates constantly putting me on guard about her I kept trusting she did actually care about Adam, while she was absolutely not interested in him but only in the push he would have graced her name in the USA with… I have to reckon how sometimes my fondness for looks deceives me so I can’t blame Adam for having the same weaknesses ;)).

It’s so much healthier for famous people to keep their most important things in life inside a private fence… so much of the famous’ lives has to be under scrutiny and that generally ruins it all… cherish the fact Adam has found somebody who takes care also of his need of keeping his love private because this makes it a million times more secure and real.

And then, now and forever (I wonder why I have to keep writing this so much as of late)… please everyone STOP considering my blog like a source, or stop asking me facts as I were better informed.

Sure, it happens that sometimes I know some things related to life of celebrities but this happens because due to my happy position in life, and the fact I am quite wealthy I can share the environments with some of them or it happens that I know people who are in the same circles BUT that doesn’t mean I have or I am a “source”, much less that I want this blog to be considered a “celebrity” or “gossip” blog.

THIS IS MY LIFE BLOG.

Behati sneaking at The Voice Season 3 Wrap Party December 2012

Behati sneaking at The Voice Season 3 Wrap Party December 2012

Here I write about what I like and since I do like Maroon 5 and Adam (since a decade by now) it happens that i write about them but at NO RATE this is a “source” nor I am so stop treat me and here as it would be.

I am not in for racking readers so if you don’t think this suits you just leave.

This blog is only meant to be a (surely not life long) little memory of myself and about myself.

And my likes.

It’s NOT a celebrity/gossip blog.

Get it?

Can you all please stop trying to catch from here things that are not supposed to belong here, and most of all, can you just stop trying to portray me as a gossip blogger?

There are a very few things that I dislike more than gossip bloggers in fact.

Alright, fine.

Let’s move on… 😉

Now just to prove that here I can write about whatever I like or dislike, let me have a moment of INFINITE LOLING because I have been recently informed by all of my friends who watch The Fuckery That Karaoke Show that thing on how there are people who would like and who actively push for a couple Adam Levine + Christina Aguilera.

Pardon me if I am just in tears of laughter even now that I write this.

SERIOUSLY?

Rocking the exotic features - Behati Prinsloo

Rocking the exotic features – Behati Prinsloo

Adam with super short, super fat Christina “Xtina” Aguilera??

Ahahahahha hahahahah ahaha…. I can’t even begin to process how absolutely hilarious this is (I mean… to even project this as anyone with brain’s dream scenario… lmao).

Beside the fact Adam probably doesn’t even like her as person, and put on a good front only for the sake of his (dreadful) tv show, waiting for her to finally exit it after this season, I mean… ARE YOU SERIOUS?

Do you know which types Adam likes?

He likes SLIM, TALL; BEAUTIFUL and perfect looking women.

I don’t really realize how people can be so naive to think he would EVER date “regular” chicks.

Why should he?

He never did not even when he was a struggling nobody, because his background still wealthy and he is born and raised in LA, which means by default you don’t really look out for anything less than someone REALLY thin and pretty.

You REALLY think he would EVER consider a 5’2” (or even less) woman of 30 with the weight and shape (by now) of a whale to be his?

REALLY?

The more I try to picture the situation, the more I laugh.

I can’t stop…

ahahahha… I can’t:

Adam Levine would NEVER be with Xtina fat short mess be serious

Adam Levine would NEVER be with Xtina fat short mess be serious

This kind of things just make me roll up my eyes so much.

Face it people: Adam likes the model type.

Always had, always will.

He loves people with legs long (VERY long) and thin to climb on them like a tree.

Remember his then girlfriend Kelly in This Love video? remember the way he caresses her legs there? Remember that touch and be assured (I mean… REALLY be, because that is a first-hand notion I can put my entire body on flames for) that for being with Adam Levine, even for a quick time, the last thing you have to be is fat.

Behati Prinsloo for VS Swimsuit 2013

Behati Prinsloo for VS Swimsuit 2013

Let alone mildly obese as poor Aguilera is now (but her voice is a treasure so my idea on her looks or the fact I don’t really like the way her personality seems to be – I say seems because I do NOT know her and I don’t pretend to – doesn’t affect my idea about her as a very talented singer, this better be clear).

Okay.

Back to more real stuff now and sorry for the break-in but I laughed so hard when my friends (practically all of them unfortunately watch that awful tv show so they get easily taken by people debating on the outputs of it, and this insane “Adamtina” – ewwwwwww the name – seems one of the most talked about out of them ) told me this that I had to write something about it.

I still laughing right this moment if you wonder ;).

While we are at it, after the latest shots of Behati for VS Swim 2013 (better commented in stylish French 😉 oui), take also her latest for the Spring campaign of NEXT UK:

Behati Prinsloo for NEXT UK SS 2013 Collection

She’s so fresh and cute 🙂

So natural… there’s absolutely ZERO sham or ploy in her and this I think is also why Adam gifted her a living creature for Xmas, beside some other things…

Behati tea-cup pig Adam got her

Behati tea-cup pig Adam got her

He gave her that adorable tea-cup pig (I melt about it if I may add) because he knows she is lovingly and can take care of a creature, the same way she has been taking so well care of him for all these months.

I wonder if Adam also gifted Behati with “tons of vintage (rock) t-shirts” as she so cutely asked when interviewed for the magazines pre- VSFS 2012 :

They are in Las Vegas right now for Maroon 5 stint at Mandalay Bay Resort…

I hope Behati was able to cross patterns with her dear Coco Rocha in Las Vegas last night (Coco went away just a few hours ago from there but the two have been in the same town for at least 24 hours so there was hopefully a met up 🙂 ) because it’s a longtime Coco misses her Bee being her always by Adam’s side and rarely in New York (and when Bee was there, Coco was away).

If you have doubts, look how Adam left the gig this past night:

This is a lil collage of this past night concert (not that after Adam dressed up for dining at Aureole Wine Lounge in  the hotel… with whom? 😉 as usual they are never there to be caught so don’t freak if you don’t hear reports but they were there together and all loved up and as usual glued to one another the way they are when no one beside their people are with them… I am sure they took great care of each other this past night ;)… just like ANY OTHER night 😉 ):

I hope they can have a great New Years’ Eve (and maybe they won’t be forced to spend it in New York as maybe the Adam’s part in NBC NYE special are taped? I hope so… he has worked enough for them in this 2012 he deserves free time. Certainly the Chelsea Lately he is in days after is a rerun so he could be as well in Africa by 2013… and sure it must be time to fly together in South Africa maybe? We’ll see; it’s only their choice of course :))… as well as I wish the same to every single one of my babies Maroon (past and present and future… because it’s clear Jesse is starting to re-adjust at the idea of getting back with them and I ADORE this perspective :)) and their significant others.

I wish them the best and to have a 2013 in everything as great to them as 2012 was.

The same I wish to myself & my perfect hubby all of our family & friends and what else?

I guess it’s all.

😉

Have everyone a super happy and super fun (and super safe also… SEXY, but safe ok? ;)) End and Start of The Year and catch you sometimes in a month or so 😉

Happy Life and Farewell to 2012… you’ve been REALLY good dear, Hope your brother 2013 can follow through as greatly 😉

Missus Z. 🙂

Whoa!!!!

(WARNING: EXTREME LONG BLABBINGS LIE AHEAD: AT YOUR DISCRETION) 😉

What a time this that has gone from last post has been!

Freak Monday in NY.

Intense… and also freaky and I don’t really mean it just because we could actually spend Halloween in a Country that celebrates it 😉

I have the feeling this post is going to be fairly LONG, all over the place… probably messy… a bit spooky… a LOT loving… and that it will end with lots of videos up.

Where do I start from?

From the fact that I wrote all this (well, almost all… something was added on Sunday as final touches, and unexpectedly, even just RIGHT now today because lovely Behati surprised me a LOT once again with her intense love and dedication to Adam, by STILL be with him just until practically TODAY… despite the fact Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show is just around the corner! but later on that, sorry for the spoil ;)) while flying over Atlantic – I lacked sleep -, then for some reason iPad yesterday decided to shut down and I resumed the post only this morning/late afternoon to be posted, cos nothing works better than the quietness of my lab space / my homely couch to somehow edit my blog logorrhea?

I might start from all that actually.

Why not.

And truth to be told is not really like I edit much my blog posting… from the way I write, and the mistakes and errors that I make every single time I update this, you get that I write always very impulsively and I rarely check back.

Which makes my posts messy, but I don’t care because this is my space and I manage it just like I please.

I don’t write this for any occasional reader and (you know how I am ) I actually absolutely don’t care who reads this, or if anyone has an opinion on what I write.

This blog is not for any stranger, even though strangers read it.

That’s a sort of collateral effect/damage that has no relevance to my world.

My blog is written for my pleasure of tracking back memories I like or feel interested in and for my crew and friends who enjoy it and send me material to work over, which I have an opinion or a feeling about myself in such a decent amount to be actually moved in writing.

The fact you occasional readers may agree or not with my perspectives frankly doesn’t move a grain of sand in my universe.

I don’t care either way… I don’t write here for anything else than my own likeness and the only opinions I care about are those of my husband, our families, my real life people and friends and crew.

NOBODY ELSE MATTERS and so, stop to quarrel about what I write here because you’re losing breath, and a lot of good energies that you all could spend LIVING FOR REAL instead than online, battling for or against people you won’t ever even meet.

You don’t belong to my world, so why should I care about you?

Just a friendly reminder about grounding and stop filling my inbox with shit.

Because as I said it would be always un-relevant in my world,unless observations come from the above mentioned crop of people.

So regarding the exegesis of my writings who cares if sometimes (most of times.. always? 😉 LOL) my posts are not really Oxfordian-ly written? Go read a book or a professional article.

Zaira and Karim Oct 2012 Cali Time

These are not articles, these are my life & my likes and dislikes posts and I am not a writer, much less a blogger or a journalist or whatever else you think I am through this pages… I am a scientist, and this is my fucking PERSONAL BLOG, not a “resource” or anything else 😉

A DAMN HOT one scientist I am, too 😉

Got the message?

GOOD.

Let’s move on then.

But let’s take it back from the start, and recollect a bit of this long time (longer than expected) K&I spent abroad.

When we decided to spend some days in USA, we (I swear) didn’t plan to make them over two weeks long.

But then forces of Nature (Sandy) and arrangements (working schedules, mines), family business (Karim’s) and beloved holidays (Halloween) suggested us to simply stay in New York a bit more, just for the sake of it.

You all know I completely adore New York; I just fit it in so well, and with hubby we’ve already talked a lot about the chances to be NY based for a while in the next few years.

I mean… I adore California too and I treasure every time we spend over there both in my house in LA and in K’s parental sort-of-castle in SF, but still… it’s NY that I do feel best in when we are in USA.

Lucky me, half of K’s family is actually Manhattan-based (pheeeeeewwww) so I can get some slack cut for my predilection.

We might even decide to spend a chunk of our lives there in a while.

Men find strength in challenges – NY post Sandy

We have talked often about this and I am all but opposite to the perspective.

I’d love it.

House is there already so it not really problematic in fact.

It would not be.

The “holiday”/”working”/”abroad” time has been spent in California, quickly in LA, just basically to catch Maroon5 at Orpheum (later) and to live a blink at least in Karim’s native home, which is always magical because I adore that flair that surges from San Francisco… it makes me feel belonging, really belonging to my K. a lot.

We might even do nothing at all there… but to imagine him as a little man (for the times he spent there in between his family foreign detachments) playing over there, hiding, taking music and art classes in those hugely-ceiled rooms… it makes me warm.

Anytime there, impromptu, K. would describe me a piece of a long-lost memory of his early days and I know it sounds horribly corny and unoriginal but every single time he does… I weep.

I sob and I weep because it’s like i can see it, like in a back memory of a movie in flashback.

It’s precious.

It’s everything in fact.

This year when we finally decided we could spend Halloween in New York, we had in mind the fact hurricane superstorm mega bitch Sandy could have been a risk too hot to handle, but the fact is that we really enjoy the Upper West Side flair for the holiday and so we arranged all to remain.

Our inspiration for Halloween 2012 were Eva Kant and Diabolik

Picking a costume wasn’t easy but then to celebrate we picked up on Eva Kant and Diabolik because they are just like us: smart, handsome, strong-minded, sexy as hell and utterly, completely, sickly in love and devoted to one another.

If you read the irony about me calling myself “sickly and devotedly in love” I get you.

You are right.

But that’s what I am now and it’s all due to my better half (I still a nympho who loves VERY kinky sex twists, but trust, hubby likes them all too ;)).

But Sandy indeed has been a reveal.

In tough times people reveal themselves; so it has been such an impact to witness how the whole of New York reacted to the impressive, unbearable force of Nature.

With a lot of dignity.

In Italy people would have been wasted away on all this; not here.

People have taken their burdens and work so immediately to get things back on track; and in all this my admire for NY Mayor, Bloomberg, has widened to unprecedented levels.

Then he just endorsed Obama and this is the final confirmation he rocks.

I would actually like him to be a future Presidential Candidate.

He would most definitely get me geared up and fight well for my vote.

Fact is what we face as world in this just-about-happening round of America’s vote is CRUCIAL and I really, really hope America doesn’t fuck up and that they (PLEASE; do it) re-elect Obama.

And these elections are VERY important.

This incoming year is so mattering.

Berlusconi and Grillo are just the same poison hopefully Italy doesn’t drink again….

In Italy we finally got rid of the cancer that Berlusconi has been – and keeps being, but now that his power is fading and the first sentences (always too mitigated by the laws HE PASSED TO SAVE HIS ASS) that is fading a bit as well, making his joke party crumble and crumble in shame – but the stupidity and lack of foresight of my fellow Countrymen, always trying to send at in power chairs people absolutely unfitting, is pushing FUCKING Beppe Grillo so high I am ready to hang my head in shame once again.

Is it possible for us to realize populism is a venom and doesn’t solve a thing, or it just takes a clown with tv in his resume and lots of flamboyant yet dleterious and unpraticable ideas only to move us as masses cheering, and still blindly?

Because Grillo and Berlusconi are scarely EQUAL.

Think about it.

They are.

Another one that is scarely similar to Berlusconi in many ways is Mitt Robo- Romney and God please please protect us from the tragedy that it would be to have him and that TERRORIST of a Vice President in pectore he has chosen for himself (scary, terrifying scum Paul Ryan) because that would be the worst thing to ever happen to the world if they would defeat Obama.

I hope not… but we are talking about the same people who allowed Bush a DOUBLE stint in the White House so we all know how this can turn off and out.

let’s hope USA pick up wisely and that they pick OBAMA.

Romney is somebody who will do good only for the rich.

Better… the SUPER rich.

I am in the wealthy (very?) category in both my Countries and I always laugh when naive people get surprised a rich person would want to be a leftist, or admits being.

Wake up… to be left has more to do with culture, education, progression than money; basically, a lot of the people who call themselves progressive are often VERY rich.

It comes down to talent and focus, and the fact is that we think wealth is a great thing, if and only if it’s the result of a well applied talent that got to blossom and produce a great result.

But once people who are progressive become (or they are from the start) rich, we don’t think it’s anything else than fair to give back and use also our wealth to improve the world.

And to help those less fortunate in actively have more opportunities.

We don’t seclude wealth for ourselves.

We are never defined by it.

We live with it and never, ever ever for it.

Only greedy people can think differently and greediness is just a wrong output in wealth, not a characteristic of it.

Romney is rich and this appeals to the lobbies he sustains and to a plethora of not rich people who think he could help them get there (same mistake many stupid, naive, illogical and blind Italians did with criminal Berlusconi, who as Romney is a tax evasion master, a liar, and somebody who can say everything and its contrary in the span of a blink just to keep the fakery going for HIS ONLY RETURN, and his only gain).

He won’t help nobody but himself and his lobbies in getting rich.

Just like Berlusconi didn’t do anything else but ruin our Country while getting richer himself.

Romney “plans” (?) for America are just the same old formulas Berlusconi used and even stupid Robo-Romney agrees that is not like Italy went to a great place under Berlusconi right ? (of course, just like Berlusconi, ask Robo about this and he will say he was “misunderstood” and “taken out of context”: professional liars with no real vision tend to say whatever and its contrary to gain approval, all conscious they will never apply any of their “plans”, just try to make their own bare interests once in charge).

Get rich or Die trying should be a push to get there by effort, not by tricks, like Romney has always done; I thought Americans were smarter than us in these facts but it seems they are not; I fear they would be not.

Romney is like people in sport using doping to win: and just like doping it’s the death of sport he’s the death of real politic skills (and look, I have always been pro-Obama but at least last turn McCain was a fair man) and politic vision and justice so I pledge and pray in a bunch of hours the whole world won’t be forced and condemned to face his “guide” for 4 years, because that could just be the (proper?) death of the whole world.

USA, don’t fuck it up: OBAMA is and must be your President AGAIN. Don’t throw the world and yourselves under the bus. PLEASE

Am I digressing?

Who cares.

I am spoken out my mind here and just like The Economist did I endorse Obama (but I am convinced he did actually the – possible available – best in his first quadrennium, so I am more openly pro-him than The Economist, which anyway speaks volume because it’s a conservative publication that dismisses the Conservative candidate. Let’s hope America tunes in because Romney put simply would be  world-wide disgrace of epic proportions if elected. So DON’T DO IT).

This is my blog and these are my visions, ideas, opinions and if you don’t like them, I couldn’t give a frigging flying FUCK less.

Go away, I repeat.

You don’t have to be here and read right?

In my world, and in this blog, only things that I like and only MY VISIONS matter.

Write your own blog if you want to read something different.

This space is not open to what you care and like… this space is MINE ;), I hope to have been clear enough in the above lines and in case I was not, sorry if you’re dumb and cannot take what you are supposed to have read.

Deal with your stupidity and the fact it can’t affect me 😉

About things that instead do affect me…

How do I start?

Because yes, there is a field of pain lately in my life… and it grows and even though sometimes I get temporary relief (I learnt Milan won 5-1 last game but it still pains me the way we are NOT playing at all this year) truth is so far my Sporty Season Lovers are SHIT.

They are.

Milan is a sort of bi-polar case borderlining catatonia… and the Lakers…

Well…

Guys you better pick it up…

And the Lakers so far are really trying to upset me.

But I mean really.. really much.

What is this fuckery we are starting as?

Here it comes the tirade.

Because well… gotta get this out of steam. I have to or I will explode.

I mean…. my Milan is shit (most than not, yet… it isn’t enough to win a single game 5-1 if when we need at least not to lose we generally blow all goodness up and away like we’d sneeze in a tissue…), Olimpia Milano is shit… and the Lakers, whom I still trust have a GREAT team this year (I still think so) are off to one of the shittiest starters ever and most definitely the worst one since 1978 at least.

Yes I know this past night we won finally against the Pistons but it’s not like my pain and fears are disappearing any time soon due to it.

The derby against the Clippers was PURE HORROR.

K&I bleeded along our LA pride (which still up and worn without any downgrading, thank you very much) and forced to watch the games (?) from NY we went multiple times in sexual healing mode at the wee bit of nights because when your team blows up… sometimes the best remedy is to blow… as well… erm… you get me 😉 (and that WORKS every time. Trust me there ;)).
Anyway to me… We have only ONE to blame all this Lakers ignominy for.
Un-Coach Mike THE DISGRACE Brown.
Wasn’t enough what he (didn’t) display last year? Why in the whole universe did we let him STAY and fathom our chances ill this season too? Man has absolutely NO IDEA on how this game has to be played.

Lakers 2012 / 2013 are a great team. Let’s hope Mike Brown doesn’t destroy it.

I am not trying to compare anything he does with the great PJax (because it’s like comparing Einstein to a Nehanderthalian) but pick ANY of the other NBA coaches and you still have someone who SHITS on anything Brown has ever done, does or will ever do.

Well at least one good thing in the NBA has happened though: our archie-enemy, David FUCKING MONSTER OF BIAS Stern (er, like darth Vader) is no longer the NBA all powerful Commissioner.

Finally. Maybe referees now will be fair to us? (even though until we don’t play well, no referee can be blamed for our fucking up constantly games…)
Please please PLEASE and Fucking please. Send him HOME before it’s too late. My oh my I can’t with him. I can’t.
End of the rant? Maybe ;).
It depends what else I am writing that might make me steam some more off and out (this post is going to be chaotic, as it always happens when I have lots to write and I am tripping on iPad).
We landed on a Sunday anyway so I could do whatever I wanted after and sleep all day in… well… before we went out visiting Marghe and Eva at least ;), we did.

Also very strangely for me I didn’t really sleep much on the flight back to Malpensa so my Sunday and K’s was very… how can I say… slow.

We took things all very slow to re-educate ourselves on Italian timetable, which being already switched to Daylight Savings caused us even more of a jet-lag feel I guess).

I missed Italy anyway.

I always do when I am far away no matter how well I feel far away.

I missed my horse Swifty (today was the re-meet for us too, finally!), my very Italian home cooking, and the constant chit chat on the streets.

Anywhere else, even the loudest place seems always very quiet compared to us 😉

No matter if – especially alone in New York, when all power was almost out despite our house was relying on three additional power-generators – K&I spent a lot of time in a cross atmosphere among Blue Velvet, Last Tango in Paris and Nine Weeks and a half

I missed my Italian sky, the mess that it can be living here, the passion and the flaws, the peaks and the lows of belonging to this unique Country.

I’m Italian to the core because I treasure history and beauty and education.

I am just made of all this and all this is quintessentially Italian, as the greatest geniuses in history testify.

And talking about Beauty, my friends have pushed me in a new direction…

I have also a Tumblr now to basically create gifts for them and I guess one of the most used tags in the end will be #TributeToBeauty

Just get ready 😉

My Tumblr 😉 Expect many #TributeToBeauty posts 😉

So while we are on the actual subject of beauty I am tempted to start first with Behati and Adam and then move towards Maroon 5… generally I keep the two sections kinda separated though intertwined but I have no idea this time and I might end making this part of the post like a pout-pourri.

Let’s see 😉

Talking about beauty… Adam’s body SURELY is a thing of it. Doing yoga with Chad on tour.

Thing is that I have like a LOT of material because a lot has happened… (of course don’t expect any The Karaoke Mess The Fuckery that thing link at episodes because that stay in the NAWWAL sections ;)… but I will post a couple of NY interviews also here because Adam was adorable there and I have to, even though they refer to that awful thing – which he hopefully will detach from, as it seems from what he told The Today Show, ending Season 4. Good. Your plans for acting come first I see. ;))

I am kinda dizzy writing over a plane and I wish I could sleep so beware the incongruities of the writing and… whatever 😉

We had left our best couple and Maroon 5 in last post after they reunited in part of the Asian tour (when Behati literally walked through skies and seas just to be with her love… I still melt when I think of all that she is doing to keep Adam happy… I LOVE this and her for this); the boys then flew to end their tour in Australia and then they went back to LA immediately because Adam had his duties as that thing “element” to fullfill (and they film at once Season 3 and 4 so the poor man literally doesn’t sleep… even less he does than usual, which is somehow scary).

Adam allegedly had to keep his – erm…. not so good looking? not very fitting? awkward? – facial hair up the first day because he might have had to shot more scenes for a Maroon 5 video (Valerie Van Der Graaf was also in Los Angeles… and since the video that could have been completed looks more like Daylight than The Man Who Never Lied, I wonder if in the end Valerie was casted for Daylight and not TMWNL… I am curious, really. I also think that Maroon 5 fans are not that creative to be able to help Maroon 5 to create a real music video, so it wouldn’t sound strange if the guys had to re-plan their intakes for next incoming video, looking as the Project kinda failed… but we’ll see, as I said. I am certainly interested in seeing beautiful Valerie as one of the Maroon 5 video vixen: she fits the line up well ;)).

While Adam was engaged in all of that, Behati was back on the other coast again working her ass off for VSshe is going to be adorable in The Valentine’s Day Commercial!! Can’t wait to see her smile! – and not only (the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show doesn’t make itself up alone and she is one of the Official Angels walking so of course things gotta get prepared well ;)).

She is always so wonderful and adorable… take some video to understand 😉 and get into Bee’s world of lively loveliness…

This is actually Behati’s 2011 Campaign for Frye, so it’s a video of last year but it TOTALLY blows me away so I think you should check it and enjoy her beauty and sexiness and spunk and class… she ROCKS:

In the main time (do you remember? we talked about that previously as well) more news kept surfacing about Adam being on the hunt for a new house.

Of course, like all rich people do, these incumbencies are taken care of by lawyers and paid people; also because, much in his style, whatever house Adam would buy wouldn’t be in its final version; renewals were to be in order anyway so basically what he was hunting for was a neighborhood, a convenient acre surface, a position, and some other details that didn’t need his presence on the spot anyway.

More on this later.

One More Night then was (and still) keep being at the top of Billboard, swindling off Psy’s Gangnam Style competition in really unexpected showing off of power.

Karim and I were ready to fly to California, and the flight made us miss the debut of American Horror Story – Asylum – with the much, much talked about Adam’s debut as a proper actor.

He did good… I actually thought he did better than I expected and you know I had some reserves there (I think he will try to outreach acting more if he gets the right script).

He also started what seemed the longest possible way to die on a Tv series that I remember of (of course, the smart Ryan Murphy would milk his presence on the series as much as possible, knowing that the ratings would respond and sky-rocket… thing that they did, and they really did due to Adam as many analysis pointed out):

If you think a cut arm can make Adam diethink again though, because in Episode 2 he was still bleeding

And seemingly alive:

So basically Ryan Murphy is putting Adam up in every episode (so far) so that audiences made of his army of fans can be kept and hopefully hooked, and even now that he is for sure dead after Episode 3 and the shooting (his Leo alias is dead, of course, not him), he still says that we will see more of him (of course, how could he keep milking him otherwise ;)?) because the season will show more connection between past Biarcliffs facts and current.

I hope really that McDermott coming back shows the connection (because Adam and Dylan’s look are very similar so that MUST be used in the show.. also Zachary Quinto and Adam look alike so that could be another link to be axplored and I’d die if the link was among the THREE of them…)

Adam Levine and Jenna Dewan AHS sex scene

By the way I REALLY love the whole season of AHS so far and this independently from Adam.

That’s MY kind of show… even though it still NOT the kind of show Adam likes at all, as many interviews (that you’re gonna hear soon here too) prove.

So by the time K& I were landing in California, Behati was  working in New York and attending Donna Karan “Connecting The Dots” exhibit (and how lovely she did look? she’s flawless both grungy and classy) , planning some more things for her New York time after the Donna Karan thing and Adam was busy with his duties for that thing too and Maroon 5 were gearing up for the gig at Orpheum Teather… which we attended.

It was a great gig, BUT I personally didn’t like it to be so much talked;(the report mistakes the words said about TMWNL linking them to Harder To breathe, which is idiotic cos harder to breathe was written in 2001 😉 and can’t be about a very recent ex girl right?) especially because some of the words told were not exactly… ahem… believable?

I mean, dear Adam… do you REALLY think that just by saying The Man Who Never Lied isn’t about one of your “very recent ex girlfriends” but about “our record company” (BOOOOOOOM!!! Lol…) we believe you?

These lyrics in NO way can be related to a record company… these are forcefully about a wasted and doomed relationship that was dead already by December 2012 (the time when TMWNL was recorded):

In the middle of hollywood boulevard
Screaming at each other, screaming at each other
Like oh oh oh, can’t take it anymore oh oh oh
Like a tragedy, like a dark comedy
Laughing at each other, laughing at each other, like oh oh oh
It isn’t funny anymore, oh oh

I was the man who never lied
Never lied until today
But I just couldn’t break your heart
Like you did mine yesterday
I was the man who never lied, oh oh oh
I was the man who never lied, oh oh oh, yeah

Sometimes honesty is the worst policy
Happy ever after, happy ever after
Let it go, oh oh, you never need to know, oh oh
I don’t wanna be picking up all of these tiny little pieces, tiny little pieces
Of your heart, oh oh, won’t do it anymore, oh oh

I have no room in me to believe a record company can “break hearts” or “scream” or ask for “happy ever afters”… instead a clingy undeserving exploiting “lover” (?) can do all that (and then send all receipts to press, and then just regret it and hope things can get patched up so that she can still have relevance in the media through her much more famous man… ooops).

But ehi, Adam said so 😉

Guess it’s one of his “clever lies”, but sometimes only really stupid people can believe those Adam 😉

Step up man, it’s not like you can fool everyone just through your astonishingly beautiful face… 😉

Back at the Orpheum gig though… take this little interview before it and admire Jimmy&Ad:

During the gig I found Adam way too puffy for my likings anyway… I don’t like him overbulked, much less when not toned up as he seemed there (or he just was wearing the most unfitting clothes ever).

You know that.

I love him muscular, why not, but I want him back to his slender frame (which he is seemingly displaying again though, so it’s okay… guess Asian food isn’t good for him ;))

A lovely thing that happened at the gig was that all the friends and crew of the boys who were there DID EXPECT BEHATI along and when she wasn’t able to be there, all expressed their missing of her (it’s amazing how Maroon 5 inner circle ADORES Behati and how she connected with both males and females… a thing which is new in Adam’s life actually).

Ali Tamposi and Behati Prinsloo at Maroon 5 gigs – Instagrammed by Ali 😉

Basically Behati is considered the perfect rocker girlfriend; they love her friendly spirit, the fact she is down to Earth and never tries to upstage anyone, and that she sincerely seems wanting to be part of the boys’ crew for her care of Adam, and not trying to steal him away from them.

And after all, how not to love somebody who goes in Africa with her bestie Coco Rocha and feeds elephants, and always look so sweet and funny and genuine?

Behati was working so she couldn’t make it to the gig… and about her work, take a look at this:

and also this:

Ali Tamposi (James’ girl) was particularly adorable as Steph Farrar (Sam’s wife) was too… and I melt everytime I see this love of them gets so supported by the people who cares the most about Adam: certainly they weren’t happy about the way he had been played before, and the fact they treasure this link now speak volumes about how they think Bee is good for Adam.

And their opinion MATTERS actually ;).

Of course (I will repeat this ad nauseam) none of this guarantee the longevity of any lovestory but to be loved also by someone’s friends and family certainly is a good step in the right direction for any relationship to last decently.

But back on the activity.

Once in Los Angeles, Maroon 5 had work to do.

Adam stopped by On Air With Ryan Seacrest to talk about “Huge News”.

I got mindblown how the usual retards (mostly little girls whose intelligence resembles a hamster, but also grown people who would honestly need a stop to a headshrinker for how they can get heated up about people they genuinely hate with no reason other than a life otherwise not filled by a thing I guess) thought the “huge news” could be about his personal life…

Like Adam talks about those things ON AIR…

He is extremely well reserved and his private life is his own; now that he is not pushed by any fame chaser to drop names and facts, but can be back to his old self when he would absolutely NEVER talk about his private life, because the person he’s with now is as reserved as he is, surely the topic of conversation had to be Maroon 5 WORK, right?

And it was… Listen:

So now Maroon 5 have stepped up their tours to again huge venues

My friends and I, despite we yet don’t know if we can actually attend all those, have already bought super tickets for three of the dates of the American Tour at least:

Well, NY and LA and Vegas have been booked 😉 let’s hope we can make it to all of them three 😉

It’s going to be great honestly 😉 and then we have also the dates in UK already booked and Bercy… I still not convinced about Italian stop at the Lucca Festival… I don’t really like Festivals that way with them…

Yass the tour 😉

Let’s see about that 😉

Also, take the boys’ messages about checking them on tour:

While Adam and Maroon 5 were all out in La doing their stuff, Behati was papped in New York and exploited (why mention Adam along? it was unnecessary… I hate all gossip magazines and Just Jared for trying to do what they were doing previously, namely get in the way of Adam’s personal life.

Adam doesn’t like that and Behati doesn’t like that as well so I hope this useless and out of reach type of posts stop as soon as possible.

Behati is another breed; she’s not in this relationship for chasing a broader fame so let her live and stop to use her to mention Adam: you won’t get anywhere good with that; Adam despises these things, now more than he ever did after having been tricked FOR them messed up his life for two years.

Behati also doesn’t like that and you could tell by her face there in those shots: she probably thought “What the hell, get outta my way…”.

Anyway, days were passing and Adam and Maroon 5 moved on to New York – not before Adam didn’t catch a glimpse of his beloved Prince in Los Angeles though –  (we did too move to New York ;), but before them in fact, so THEY were following us… don’t you think? LOL)… whom do you think was the happiest about all of their promo appearances?

Well, clue is it wasn’t me 😉 (though I was quite happy, sure) ;).

Behati Prinsloo Fashion Collage Nov 12

No words of course were spread over twitter… but after the Today show appearances (full interview and performance) we all knew some how things were bound to happen :

K&I and his grannie (!!!!!) had tickets for the Letterman show; but I knew also that Adam was scheduled to be honored at a GQ event that was private, the Annual GQ Gentlemen’s Ball, which he attended to receive honors for his continued (and always very secretive) charity work for children.

And yes… even though AGAIN she didn’t milk it at all and was always discreet and avoided red carpet and let him shine without trying to steal any spotlight

Behati was his date there…

Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine at GQ Gentlemen Ball october 2012 NY

Their first official event attending as a couple.

I am SO happy this happened, and even more than it did with Bee KEEPING IT ALL VERY DEMURE and reserved.

She also was stunningly beautiful and classy dressed like that.

They were just wonderfully looking.

Both 🙂

Listen to the red carpet interview at the GQ Ball:

And Adam indeed shall come up nicely in the list of People’s Sexiest Men Alive because… wow.

He spent all his time in New York actually dressed up mostly and MY OH MY.

He’s honestly gorgeous.

So even when for catching him on Letterman we had to endure the awfulness of Donald Trump (that man is disgusting… Letterman actually worked him amazingly both on camera and out of camera… he was sharp and making him result well as the ass he is… I was burning on that chair and utterly disgusted by how Republicans can be as slimey and horrible as Trump is. And being such liars, of course, with those bronzeys faces. Eeeewwwww), it was all worthy because well… we got another dress up from Adam 😉 (he’s always so shy on camera… I love that):

Maroon 5 – well, Adam and James – had also another private event in New York to play for: the Microsoft event at the Renaissance hotel (Microsoft most likely sponsors their tour… they have played quite a handful of private shows for them by now and as an Apple-ist I cringe… but whatever ;):

He also went to Kelly and Michael show and that interview was really pretty solid and adorable (again his looks were dashing):

When exiting from the show, he jumped in a car and inside there were Behati (of course) and Tony Lucca, his contestant from that thing Season 2 he has signed on his label.

Since I got words even before arriving in New York Adam had booked studio time there, I suppose they have recorded a duet (eeewwwww):

Talking briefly about Adam and duets, what I instead REALLY want to hear as soon as possible is his duet with 50 Cent and EMINEM (!!!!!!!!!) named This Life, up to be readied from 50’s Street King Immortal’s record.

Adam and Eminem.

I think a dream of mine has been made real and now I just miss Chris Martin and Thom Yorke for him to duet with and I can die happy 😉

Adam actually taped also an appearance at Anderson Live that was not broadcasted though due to last-minute coverage of Hurricane Sandy.

I have a bunch of it though and it’s majorly cute because he speaks about CATS (Behati has two of them) and while months ago he said that he doesn’t like them, asked about his partners in crime on The Fuckery that thing Cee-Lo’s cat, suddenly he changed his mind answering a question this time on that topic (he better… cats are awesome and his girlfriend is too so ;)… he HAS to like them ;)):

Was he handsome or what there?

Wow… that was his best look all the week 😉

But just to not make you forget… his girlfriend is pretty flawless too:

And Behati also has an awesome personality and energy, beside one of the most beautiful unique faces (and LEGS!!! HER LEGS!!!) I have ever seen:

The two lovers certainly had their fun of time sharing in New York, but as Sandy was ready to storm onto the poor glorious town (and believe me…. it was NASTY!!!), Adam and the guys headed back to Los Angeles, and Behati – but we did know only later, and way laterally – actually flew to ROME to work to a project that of course she didn’t reveal a thing about (she is amazing like this).

Behati Prinsloo in Rome, 28 october 2012

Before actually goming back to LA, Adam did a The Voice Press event in New York, and his interview is here (this one I post it here even though it’s about that show that I can’t stomach because he was gorgeous there and I like the interview and how he worked it despite the subject; though I really laugh when he defends Aguilera because well, it just makes me laugh that a pperson so much in for very skinny types can praise somebody – who has fought with him a lot – for the fact she lost exactly the only physical frame he likes. But I guess he has to say more clever lies for the sake of his image on the show, right? God bless anyone who can believe he actually likes fat girls LOL …):

There is a conjecture of me and the crew about the reason behind Adam and Christina’s seemingly better relationship on their show: first of all, it’s a matter of image; they cannot fight when they are promoting the show AND their records.

Then we guess after actively trying to get his dick   attention and getting refused out (just because he really doesn’t like fat girls) Adam probably finally gave in to her before getting it on with Behati (around the time when he and the previous girlfriends were actually already split up and he surely had a wandering roundup of sexual relationship to get back his activity after for months he could barely fuck once every three weeks, given that his supposed half was never there with him) for a matter of stopping making her bother him I guess, or just because whatever… a fuck is a fuck in his world – and we all know it goes like that when he’s unleashed—.

Probably Christina wanted more and more but never obtained it – hence the fights they openly had on past season of The Fuckery? that thing; but after he got officially with somebody else she probably had to give up and content herself with being able to recall she also went someday just dickmatized by Adam’s infamously talented— how to say— extremity. 😉

This is only a guess but… well, let’s say it makes sense.

Knowing the subject(s) involved.

Anyway back to more serious things, during the couple of days after the New York staying of Maroon 5 and before the Amp Radio promotional gig, finally the news about Adam’s new house purchase broke.

Adam Levine new Beverly Hills house in Benedict Canyon – October 2012. Of course he will TOTALLY change and renew it. Too peasant for his refined taste 😉

Now, many outlet reported the news, but as usual, let me just say the gossip magazines and sites were only partially informed, while other better news-magazines at least just gave the right cut at the news.

I came in to a site that I trust about riches’ purchases of houses in the LA area because when I decided to set up around Glendale in LA I searched for the services of people basing myself – among other trustees – to someone mentioned often here (well, not like I trust a blog but the person managing this actually knows how to do the job).

So read a bit about HOW RICH PEOPLE ACTUALLY OPERATE IN REAL ESTATE MATTERS:

Adam Levine new Beverly Hills house, and how he will completely change its very cheap look 😉

Now first of all this surely isn’t a bachelor pad… Adam clearly bought this thinking about his incoming family (that won’t happen ANYTIME soon… expect him to be ready for family not before he’s actually 38/40…).

But the house although very big and family-ready certainly isn’t the style he likes so of course he will totally remake it.

I expect the bedrooms to be cut from 6 to 3, and spaces to be created.

The guest house will certainly stay because it’s convenient, but all the extra space will surely see a basketball court growing and probably an in-site studio, and maybe he will also enlarge the living surface and made his architect increase the size of the buildings.

Certainly he has room to make there the house he wants; the neighborhood is amazing (the Beckhams, Bruce Springsteen… sounds fairly fine ;)) and the schools at reach are amazing to; Harvard Westlake being the first choice of course (he can ask dear friend Jake Gyllenhall about that, and he has probably already done it).

He still have his previous Los Feliz house too (and he will keep it until at least some renovations aren’t made in the new one… and until someone won’t buy it at the price HE WILL THINK FITS 😉 Man is a talented seller anyway 😉 he has surely instructed his lawyers well about anything related to his preferences there):

Adam Levine still have also this under his belt… 😉

I am really happy about Adam moving to BH, even though this way he really moves far away from my house in LA so no way to cross him at Whole Foods anymore 😉 But ehi, it’s not that important.

He picked the house up wisely.

I can’t wait to see how he will transform the house 😉 and after all his dear Mark Haddawy not only made his Los Feliz House, but has already done for himself another Canyon House in Beverly hills so he’s just there to be reached and work for Adam in team again 😉 isn’t he? 😉

As the news of his new purchase broke, Adam and Maroon 5 were scheduled to perform a gig and a promo appearance on Amp Radio on October 30th… I really liked the interview, so here it is:

And by then Behati was already flying all over the world to escape the Hurricane Sandy and reach Los Angeles from Rome…

I wonder if Adam ever watches her videos for Victoria’s Secret, knowing that his dream had always been to be with a VS Angel, and now finally he actually has a TRUE one ;):

and then this…

and the extended version (Behati TRULY stands out over here… her legs are simply perfect and she truly is astonishing with darker brown hair…):

So the fact is that Behati made it in time to be by Adam’s side at the Lakers Game opener on October 30th... and this is truly fantastic to me.

She didn’t probably even sleep to be there considering on October 28 evening she was still in Rome working (and that explains why she was a bit showing tiredness on her face… only stupid people who don’t know how Behati is SINCE AGES and her childhood a basketball fanatic could think she didn’t care or was interested in the game. Behati can probably kick Adam’s ass in the game and hopefully one day she will in the basketball court he’s ready to build in his new house ;)… Behati is a natural in playing basketball. And she knows the game VERY well actually. Adam this time can actually talk for real about basket with his girlfriend, and not have someone pretending she cares while all she thinks about is which angle to offer to paparazzi courtside ;)).

David Beckham Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo (poor angel, so tired after a restless flight and straight there) attend Lakers game opener at Staples Center on October 30th 2012

I am so very impressed by her efforts to be with Adam.

I’ve lost count of how many times she fought odds to spend time with him. She’s in love and so fierce and so passionate.

Lovely Adam and Behati courtside at Lakers game 30 october 2012

She’s just his female counterpart; so many points of their personalities are simply EQUAL that this pair is magic to me.

Look these videos of them arriving and departing Staples Center and IN BETWEEN THE LINES CHECK ADAM’s NEW VINTAGE FERRARI (!!!!!!! Now he has a Porsche and a Ferrari Vintage, a Mercedes vintage and a new one hybrid, and still the Aston Martin, plus FOUR HARLEYS? wow. He definitely needs the space for garages in the Beverly Hills house ;)):

The morning after it was THE GREAT DAY OF HALLOWEEN and all Maroon 5 fans know even too well how that day is SACRED for their inner circle.

They plan their costumes months in advance with a specific care and by now Maroon 5 “Spooktacular” Event is by far THE event of Halloween in Los Angeles.

Adam and Bee 31 oct 2012

That morning Adam and Behati went Grocery shopping and you can see how natural as a couple they are… and how she always goes bareface and totally simple along with him (I suppose those jeans she wears are actually stolen from his cupboard…).

Now Behati is a well known Halloween lover too and in fact so far the editorial of her I dig the most is the i-D one where she went zombiefied.

I was curious to see how she would have dressed like because Adam revealed in the amp interview he and the crew would have gone as Sons Of Anarchy‘s characters and he would have been Opie (sadly deceased).

Well…

Behati got some Japanese inspiration and dressed as a very colorful and Harajuku-like mix among a biker chick, and Donna (the haircut) + Lyla (the pornstar look) hybrid.

Donna and Lyla were the two wives of Opie (one is dead, the other survived his death instead).

Adam and Bee on Halloween 2012

Basically, Bee had her twist on the story and I LOVED ALL THAT SHE BROUGHT IN.

She was amazing to me (of course I am a Japan Lover so… it was an easy win for me ;)).

The party was all degrees of awesome.

The Maroon 5 Halloween Parties by now are simply unbeatable I guess.

It was again and once more held up at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, because by now the amount of people going there is so huge Adam’s house just can’t  hold them all; and in fact to spoil who was there is always one of the greatest thing about it.

Well…

To me the most important sight was THOM FRIGGING YORKE.

He deejay-ed the party.

So now kill me.

Do it.

I want SO bad a duet between Adam and Thom and I know they are actually acolytes and I can’t dare to hope one day they might actually merge their vocals together.

Know that if it’d happen I would DIE of Pleasure.

Thom Yorke. Deejaying at Maroon 5 party. Sigh

So take a series of collages before I let you see my pick for best costume EVER:

Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo attend Maroon 5 Halloween Party 2012

More of the loveliness of Adam and Behati:

Of course all their friends were up and all of them were merged awesomely…

Gene Hong was also very coupled at the bash… time to leave Adam’s place ? 😉

I personally adored Behati’s look on the night… she is herself even dressed as a hooker/biker/pornstar… and she is lively and colorful and unique… :

Behati Prinsloo as an Harajuku version of an hybrid between SOA Donna+Lyla (a pornstar) mashed in a colorful way with a biker rock chick. She was awesome at Maroon 5 Halloween Bash. Just amazing as usual.

Best costumes of the night?

Katy Perry and Shannon Woodward: UNBEATABLE choice

I mean… Daria and Jane… you can’t beat Katy and Shannon choice 😉

Though Mickey as Skrillex was really a strong competitor… 😉

Mickey as Skrillex was amazing…

As I said, everyone was there though…

Maroon 5 8th Spooktacular Halloween Bash 31 October 2012 Hollywood Forever Cemetery

Basically if you are somebody you will attend the Spooktacular bash:

The 8th Spooktacular 😉

and so read a bit of interesting tidbits:

Maroon 5 and Patron presents Hollywood Forever Cemetery 8th Halloween Bash 31 oct 2012

The aftermath day Adam and Behati went out to erase all of their fake inking… so paps caught them still smiling after such a long night of fun:

I thought after this Behati had left LA… but I was wrong :))))

So all in all to sum up Adam and Behati’s lovely time in October and the start of November I had prepared this video (with fitting music always ;)… how I do love to prepare these):

And I thought it would have been IT (I loved the coverage from French Fashion sites by the way…)… but then just this morning I woke up and as usual people who help me somehow collect material for my pages informed me that BEHATI WAS STILL WITH ADAM IN LOS ANGELES also yesterday, Sunday 4th, as Just Jared reported (I still don’t like rags, much less Perez and Just Jared who jaded Adam so many times before he became as popular as he is now…).

What was awesome was the way they turned a paparazzi thing (that they detest, by now it should be clear) to a reason to be charitable and push people at doing good.

The way they use their celebrity status to help others makes me so proud of them, in fact… Read how they went up with that Relief for Sandy text HERE.

Adam and Behati are two charitable and adorable lovers

My jaw anyway had dropped about Bee still being with him though and it did because of LOVE for them, and for how joyous I am every time I realize (even BEYOND my expectations) how wonderful Behati is for Adam, how much she does take a good care of him.

I didn’t expect her to be still with him during the weekend but now I reckon why Adam keeps being untweety and why he is still so very happy (from the images that surfaced of this weekend The Fuckery that thing tapings that he still doing for both season, and in which he looked SHININGLY happy, and as funny as always now that he is back being happy in his life again):

Adam Levine, Shakira and Usher at the Voice press shooting on November 2, 3 in Los Angeles, California

By the way, I did notice from this picture how Adam is coming back to his slender frame and I LOVE it… 😉

As I said, I didn’t expect Behati to still be there because the Victoria’s Secret Fashion shows approachesNovember 7th is around the corner – and I thought she would have been in New York by now already; but now her friend Candice Swanepoel’s tweet on Saturday makes sense:

Candice misses Behati

Basically she expected Behati to be already in New York by then (as I did); but THE LOVE kept her by Adam’s side and I find this UTTERLY AMAZING.

I am not worried about her presence in the VSFS because she’s part of the official Angels Line up, so either she already had her fitting when she was in NY in October (before flying to Rome) or she will today like Adriana Lima will (and also Lindzey Ellingston, another official Angel, hasn’t had her fitting yet so it’s not like Behati is alone in not being yet there before the show):

Behati Prinsloo is walking VSFS 2012 for sure, since she is one of the Angels in the official line up… bask in hate, losers 😉

What really makes the fact that she was still just a bunch of hours back with Adam splendid to me is that once again she did NOTHING to make all this known.

She is always there with him, and still not a word comes out from her to milk this.

She works her things always (the quick trip to Rome, again unmentioned, by the end of October testifies she still work, but she never uses social media to pimp herself out, and I love this in her; she also had a bunch of work done with Victoria’s Secret in October before Adam and Maroon 5 came in on the 22, so it’s not really like she doesn’t work; she is just not whoring her works out to the press or on Twitter and that’s a BIG difference, that of course many retarded haters simply aren’t intelligent enough to understand), but as long as she is not doing her work, she IS BY ADAM’s side.

Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo at Mustard Cafe – Los Feliz Califonia – 4 November 2012

ALWAYS.

Like a girlfriend who is in ACTUAL love and cares about a relationship should do.

I mean… if you were Adam Levine’s girlfriend, where else but by him would you like to be?

Why spend nights alone in towns far away MILES AND MILES, when you can be in his bed and have sex with him and spend all possible time you have with him?

Honest to God… what Behati does is just what everyone who is with him shall do and I am glad now Adam is with someone who LIKES being with him, and isn’t there just to be papped round and then flies away at any given chance because in the end anything else but him was more important than him.

Behati is in love with Adam and she SHOWS IT by devoting to him all of her spare time; she shows it by arranging all of her working duties in ways that make her create THE MAXIMUM of room for her to have the maximum of days to spend with her boyfriend, who’s super engaged in millions of activity and has a crazy schedule to be put in the equation.

If she has to barely sleep to be with him as much as possible, take all flights all over the world and quick to not miss a second with him… she does it.

Mind you haters: she does it and SHE NEVER MILKS IT, and she never even mentions it, and she keeps protect him and his family privacy like a warrior.

That’s why she is perfect for him.

Behati Prinsloo in Adam Levine car in NY, 26 oct 2012

She CHERISHES Adam; and therefore I cherish her, because she is making him truly happy, and she makes him finally feel loved and taken care of.

This makes me happy a lot, because he deserves someone loving him and not using him; he has been used so wildly and horribly before Behati came into the picture, that the fact now he is just basking in the love Bee pours onto him makes me feel warm inside, because that has erased his wounds and the fact he wasted years on nothing true.

But in a way this unexpected Behati move made this post:

1) longer;

2) even more messy, because I had to put pieces of this inside the structure I had previously made;

3) even more of a punch in the face of this couple haters (which I don’t mind, because all of them are like a ZERO in life, and so to make them even more mad is a source of infinite fun for me 😉 because I am mean and cruel to people I consider scum and losers… and sure them hating on these two are part of the category of losers, and scum ;))

4) probably even more unreadable… and more filled with media material (which is bad for my storage and the fact that I have to pay a lot for it ;))

BUT in the end I don’t care, because to wake up with the news that the Lakers won and that this couple I so like was still probably have wild sex even by the time I was sleeping just made me happy.

Their sex must be the ultimate freaky stuff 😉

And that explains much in Adam’s grinning face anytime you catch him these days in video or pictures, and anywhere he goes.

Good thing.

Oh and before anyone start to paint dreams because Adam WON’T BE at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show this year (he won’t for sure), that has nothing to do with anything else than this:

He has to be in Los Angeles for the LIVE SHOWS of The Fuckery that thing which start today, and which move towards wednesday and Thursday this week because of the Super Tuesday of Election:

The Voice schedule which prevents Adam from VSFS 2012

Sorry again for the losers who are going to read anything else into his absence.

Adam and Behati are still in love and really don’t care about any of your hate on them ;).

But you all can keep on making yourself look like asses by keeping on that hate going.

Like it could affect them while they make out, laugh, live, have sex and love one another DAILY, you know 😉

*giggles*

Now I could leave you with the note just in about minutes Adam will be at The Grove for a promotional that thing appearance which will be taped also for Extra TV BUT I won’t cover that and anyway not now because I ma tired enough and I want to rest after two hours of horse riding and trying to patch back this post with all the news that I didn’t expect from this morning ;).

I leave you all with something unexpected instead 😉

This is a video that I caught as soon as we got back home yesterday… I fell in love instantly with the song AND the video so since I am obsessing fully over it today…

Take it and learn a bit more of greatness for yourselves.

This is the amazing Eric Turner vs Avicii “Dancing In My Head”.

Enjoy:

Have all a great November and let’s cross fingers tomorrow America Chooses Wisely.

PLEASE VOTE BARACK OBAMA.

Vote Obama. That’s all.

I BEG YOU.

World cannot sustain a Romney Presidency.

Don’t let us tell you once again “we told you” because Bush was already too much of a disgrace and he allowed this sucky financial mess we are now in.

Romney would make it even worse.

Romney and that horrifying Paul Ryan would just send USA and the whole world to the gutter, without second guesses.

Please.

VOTE OBAMA.

It’s more than mandatory… it’s the only SANE option.

Missus Z.

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. 🙂

Strange and peculiar morning/day.

A real disappointing effort

A day of packing, a day of work… a day of music, a day of mourns.

Let’s go in line…

This morning I should have enjoyed Coldplay and their long awaited Mylo Xyloto album on my way to my very early working shift (7h30 am: China business requests that, and I am happy to oblige as that is any company’s brightest side of the future, let’s face it).

I knew the pre-order was up for grabs so around 5h30 am I woke up, I downloaded it (along the wonderful iBook of Steve Jobs) and I listened.

And… I didn’t find it awesome.

I actually didn’t find it even GOOD.

Oh, let’s be honest… at times I didn’t even find it decent… 😦

It’s hours that I have it on loop (along my other buy… Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, which is really good if you love the genre, and I do).

This is what I judged the tunes of the two albums like, (and the iBook) just this morning (and actually some of the Mylo Xyloto’s track could be lower than what I gave out…):

The Mylo Xyloto disappointment as certified from my iTunes stars...

Maybe for you all it ain’t a big deal but for me, Coldplay devotee since the first Yellow came out (I was in UK studying/living at that time, more than in Italy) it sure – kinda – is.

Look, I’m not against them turning “pop”: they always have been pop to me after A Rush Of Blood To The Head… and I am all for merging/exploring/mashing of genres but the majority of Mylo Xyloto is overproduced, lyrically underwhelming, missing whatever kind of point type of generic shiz.

Sorry.

Any longtime Coldplay lover can easily see this is by far their worst album.

And I won’t even weight in the whole Princess Of China Bull. My oh,…my.

Autotune in a Coldplay song?

It’s awful.

Awful.

Awful.

Noel's record instead is quite amazing

Chris should just ditch Goop, be open about cheating (all the lyrics of the album scream variously between “Kate Bosworth” to “Generic Hookup“) become truly the Hollywood darling he secretely wishes to be and stop imitating the (wrong) road of U2, simply.

Yes, cause with Mylo Xyloto Coldplay made exactly the same mistake U2 did: they thought they could be good in any mix, while they just proved they weren’t.

They’re stadium rockers (in Coldplay’s case, “pop rockers”) who shouldn’t ever let dancey beats switch over and fluke off their signature guitars/melodies.

Sadly, they just tried way too hard, and failed miserably.

Oh well… live the tunes are still amazing, so that is already a plus and surely the fact this album is very lame won’t touch my overall love for Coldplay.

Anyone can miss a point and doing it with the FIFTH record only is remarkable.

Steve's biography is AMAZING on iBook 🙂

I will listen more to Noel, than Coldplay while in US, that is for sure.

Yes, because I’m on the verge to leave towards Big Apple for:

  • Business (mine);
  • Business (Karim’s);
  • Pleasure (of both);
  • Stepping into our just renewed Manhattan apartment;
  • Celebrating Halloween

🙂

Too bad we can’t stay that long to appreciate neither SLN (on the 5th November) or the VSFS 2011  on November 9th (which we had already the places for, thanx to powerful producers friends of Karim’s fam) appreciating Maroon 5 and Kanye West and Anne on those days, performing/catwalking there…

But Karim’s gotta be in Germany those days and I don’t see the point of enjoying those shows without him.

Yeah, I’ve become that good of a wife, haven’t I? 😉

I leave you with an homage to Marco Simoncelli though.

The tragedy that occurred yesterday in Sepang made me cry so hard yesterday.

Farewell, Sic: you will now ride over the purest angels’ clouds up there in a shining sky.

Love, Missus Z. 🙂

Morning!!!

Relaxing on K's family yacht. Insane 😉

Just got back from a quick weekend on boat (even though after experiencing K’s family “boat” my own one seems like minuscule… and it’s really much NOT so… ;)!), and in less than half an hour I’ll be at the stable to spend more time with my Swifty baby.

I gotta be rushing because tomorrow we leave again towards the States, destination MIAMI for a bachelor time with only American friends this time (whoooo! Love Miami in July, and its vibe… I’m happy I will e wearing as usual my Lakers pride on my sleeve without having to stand any of Heat fans trying to bother, since they lost the ring ;)!!!)

After Miami we will fly (oh, and keeping using K’s uncle private plane… that undoubtedly makes it easier to celebrate our incoming hitching times ;)!) towards Los Angeles, where our house will host again all my Italian crew because we will attend (not all of us, only a selected part of devoted fans… although my level of fandom has drastically decreased since The Fuckerythat thing“) Maroon5 gig at The Hollywood Bowl (and hopefully only K&I will also be attending the day before Stevie Wonder’s gig there… awww I really hope we can make that!!!).

I know I will have a great time there, don’t get me wrong: for me the best version of Maroon 5 is actually when they are on stage so surely I will adore it all.

In fact, what let me SO down about Adam was exactly that he ditched that live on stage sparkle to sign onto what I will always perceive as a selling out by him.

But I know I can’t set back time and I will have to deal with the fact he isn’t anymore what I loved him to be, not fully at least.

Now he likes Reality tv, he loves to be friend with JUSTIN BIEBER (feel me throwing up) and allegedly he’s also into golf now.

SIGH.

So long to so many things I used to love about him (many of them being things he used to dislike or not conforming to, while now it seems I’m alone in hating reality tv, pop fake puppets and overrated rich sports)… but at least his voice still perfect and unique, right?

His voice and talent will always maintain a place for him into my “I like” list, no matter how many idiot and despicable career choices he will make (till some extent, at least).

Anyway I am sure I will adore Hollywood Bowl gig as I loved their Paris gig even on the eve of my The Fuckery The Voice shock.

Maybe Adam will invite Drunktina Christina A. on stage and will perform just as he will on Moves Like Jagger video:

And with that sentence I mean HALF NAKED, of course.

Now that’d make me tingle a bit, no matter how much he un-sexified himself down after becoming a Reality Tv “thing” (I don’t think I will ever be able to look at him the same after that… by now all evidences point towards this sad fact), he still one of the finest specimen of men who ever lived on this planet.

Yep, he will always be hot, hot in a very inescapable way right?

I loved that in the behind the scenes video making of he claims to be “a one woman man”, too: he should just decide himself and put a ring on Anne‘s finger.

ASAP.

They need to marry, and multiply their so blessed genetic code.

Error
This video doesn’t exist

Do it, Levine.

After you’ve so much changed that now you’re even into golf, you can become a married man too: age-wise, that’s expected (and in all ways better than falling for golf, really).

Talkin about that, and switching back to K&I (I mean… we just rule ANYBODY else really ;)), after the LA quickie we were meant to move with both USA & Italian crew to Las Vegas BUT we were at risk of crossing crass KardaSSian family SO we got permission to fly all to Catalina into K’s family house there.

That’s gonna be ROCKING!!!!

Now tell me if I don’t love all my crew ;).

I don’t think it’s possible to prepare better for a marriage than the way K&I are doing (for us and for the people we love… and trust our parties are insane ;)!).

After Catalina our friends will get back to their places because the last times before Japan reaching will be all family bound for me and my amazing half.

My family and K’s one will reunite first in San Francisco, then we will move to Paris (@ private homes obviously).

It’s gonna be awesome 🙂

The music that fits the most is this: my current jam, Jovanotti:

Ya’ll better follow my happy streak, to enjoy my preppy crazy times, ok?

I leave you with another song that I like (her voice’s so good I followed her also on Twitter, just this morning), the latest from Jessie J:

What else?

I guess not much 🙂

Catch you just before marriage?

I guess so 😉

Much love, Miss Z. 🙂

Note: edited on July 10, GMT -5  hr 23.15

Good morning from the United States!

We’re prancing around in this awesome colonial house (Hamptons, baby!!!!) and we are about to leave to New York in a little while.

Lovely Night London times July 2011

We reached Karim’s clan from London, where we went past weekend to enjoy the FINAL OF WIMBLEDON!!!

Nole won over Rafa in a Final that was amazing for me (they are my two fav players), as much as it was the time in London and the great dinner FTP for the winners, the night of the victory.

Meeting Nole was precious: he’s very lord-like and absolutely enchanting to exchange words with 🙂

Still, Rafa keeps the number one spot in my tennis heart, and Djokovic stays a very close second.

I told him and he smiled and said that he will try his best to make me change my mind.

*cute* 🙂

We had a total fantastic time here in the Big H, filled with parties, family time, yacht leisure (okay… K’s family yacht is INSANE… amazingly so!), horse rides along with dinisties of horseracers (WOW!!!)  and in a way we would like to stay here a couple of days more but we are heading to New York to have the first parties out of the stream of ones K&I will have for our “Bachelor/ette Celebrations” and people are flying in from literally all over the world so it’s not like we can demolish so much fun for our romantic times alone 😉

hamptons 2011

I love these Hamptons, baby!

It’s gonna be pretty wild.

And yep— I hope the boys will have fun because we girls SURELY will.

Don’t be prudes or don’t read further (or incoming posts): I wish my future hubby lots of wild sex at these parties.

He knows for me sex can be like gymnastic if heart is not involved, so as long as he’s safe, he can bang  at those parties whoever he likes.

To me he could even out of the parties, he knows how I feel about sex so he knows I’m very honest there: I am not one who feels any type of jealousy… it’s a conceptual forced feeling our historic culture and religious belief has placed within us to feel like sexual exchanges are breaking promises or faith, but that happens only if those elements strike in for what I am concerned… therefore for me – I get is not a common though – a sex thing can happen without any feeling or faithfulness involved.

I don’t lie about that, and I have always make it clear with all people who have been fortunate enough to share my sheets (or whatever else of the same category of “physical fun items”).

I’m an honest libertine BUT for the love I feel for Karim I don’t have problems in ditchin this for him to be happy…

Still I don’t see the point in being possessive with the one you love because the more you try to hold someone back, the more he/she’s gonna slippin from your chains.

I let him free, even though he has explained to me he can’t do the same…

I get you my K.

Don’t worry.

I understand and you know I don’t feel trapped with you anyway.

But yes, for me he’s free to bang around, even though I imagine he will give up most of chances also at the parties (I suggested to my friends who are there to push him instead… camon!!! Have fun you darn hot thing… make someone else happy with what Nature so kindly and abundantly has given you ;)!)

He won’t find anyway anybody who’s even remotely as unforgettable as me in a sex encounter, that’s for sure, so…I have no fears someone else can involve him as I do.

What I read on flights: Anne V and Natalia Vodianova in Vogue Germany July 2011

What about me then? Oh, it will depend on my mood, given the little boundaries I have agreed to accept and the fact we are in New York so probably lots of the people whom will be at the places we will hang at might be acquaintances of Karim or his clan (not that those hipster/rich types have sexual codes that involve normality anyway…).

And also it could depend on the fact I might find somebody sexy enough to raise my interest at my parties (and you know my taste are refined so it’s really not easy to catch me eye and even less easy to catch my attention after… but I expect people trying as usual).

Karim isn’t as open as me though so I know he had requests to undervalue when we were planning our “party times”.

He cannot stand me with anybody else unless he’s present, so that’s why we have parties in shifted days, this round and also all other rounds that are gonna happen in different towns (his is Monday, mine is Tuesday) so in case I feel the urge, he can… well, operate ;)).

I don’t really complain because by now you know that three is a very interesting number in my life ;)… And in these multiple parties it could even be surpassed.

I don’t wanna over think anything ;)… I let all doors open to *major fun*.

Rule number one in my life: I don’t give a damn about other’s concept of life.

I have mine and I am very sincere.

If you wanna mash with me, you better take it or leave it, and in any case, that won’t affect the way I will keep conducing myself.

Your judgment isn’t important to me: my life is fabulous just because I drive it very much as I like it to be.

Probably I would have been an amazing star in the decadent times in France or Spain by the end of 1800… but then the protections and the acknowledge of the STDS weren’t developed so no… I prefer very much to live nowadays, in the end.

Lots more things to do and chances to take 😉 and way safer.

I love to talk these subject in very pleasant literary debates… and people of huge culture and education actually get very engaged about this all; latest additions to my “literary and artistic circle of friends” are actually Karim’s father and uncle.

We had a very great series of conversations these past days.

They’ve seen the world and experienced all variety of people so I love to talk with them because their minds are very open and very rich.

We will be back in Italy next week: Swifty misses me so in the July travels I have to sneak in chances for rides along him (wonder if he will smell again the taste of another horse on me… he hates that ;)).

Next move will be in California, and Las Vegas.

It will also be a musical trip because after The Fuckery “that thing” ended I have finally allowed myself to re-listen to Maroon 5 so the Hollywood Bowl gig is what we will also do in Los Angeles in two weeks.

I actually also hope to catch Stevie Wonder the day before at the same venue but yet that has to be confirmed.

I still not enamored with Maroon 5 as I used to be though; I fear that wound will never be healed, and that type of worship I used to have for them and for Adam especially will never be restored in full force again.

And so in many ways Moves Like Jagger, which is an undoubtedly little summer pop gem, sounds like Katy Perry to me (and that is NOT good, though catchy-powering), making my liking of the song diminished in value (I can’t appreciate the fact pop-garbage producers like Benny Blanco have taken charges of Maroon 5 songs now… I don’t really like Stereo Hearts as I hoped I would have, either, and he’s involved in that too).

These are my summer songs by the way (part of them have been influenced by my stay away from Italy, especially number 4, which I LOVED as soon as I heard it on the radio the other day :)):

  1. LMFAO  Party Rock Anthem (I was the one telling you months ago this was going to be universally HUGE);
  2. JOVANOTTI and Michael FRANTI The Sound Of SunShine
  3. GIORGIA Il Mio Giorno Migliore (LOOOOVE IT!!!)
  4. ONE REPUBLIC Good Life
  5. COLDPLAY Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall
  6. MAROON 5 & CHRISTINA AGUILERA Moves Like Jagger (can’t avoid to like it even though I don’t love it)
  7. JOVANOTTI Il Piu’ Grande Spettacolo
  8. ALOE BLACC I Need A Dollar
  9. BRUNO MARS The Lazy Song
  10. place number ten is free for grabs 😉 I will have a final word at the end of the summer 😉

I leave you with cuteness though.

One thing that hasn’t diminished at all regarding M5 related stuff is still my appreciation of the Adam Levine + Anne V love story (still rooting for them to be together forever and have many gorgeous and physically perfect little Levines with a boost of Russian genes in… oh! how cute they would be!!! Adam and Anne are the best celebrity couple I have ever seen so…) and in fact I had to compose this collage when I downloaded for my friends Marghe and Sere some pictures for them to upload in their Maroon 5 dedicated blog (they will update it someday soon… I have no idea when though because they are bound to reach me in New York just today?):

Most lovely couple Adam Levine and Anne V in Los Feliz, California, July 5, 2011

They are so incredibly cute together.

That melts me since their beginnings, and to be fully honest I don’t even really like the fact Adam will be half naked in the Moves Like Jagger video because Anne wasn’t there with him this time, filming along him (she was in Montenegro for a birthday party, and that explains why they were so huggy and affectionate in the Los Feliz cafe’, before her departure from California).

This by the way are some of the stills from the shooting of Moves Like Jagger video, filmed by one of my fav directors, the uber talented swede Jonas Akerlund, whom Adam interviewed in 2009 for MTV (search this blog):

Anyway I am sure they will reunite very soon, considering Chovy stays at Adam’s pad (cute… he said he was watching a movie with his DOGS… so now he feels Anne’s one is as well his 🙂 who knows how Frankie feels about that?).

I know Love Will Rule.

And talkin about that, Karim and I will travel to New York in a limo with closed space.

We will be about to rule love in 3…2…1… 😉

Catch you sometime around two weeks I think 😉

Kisses, Miss Z. 🙂

So, yesterday my Sporty Fan Year for 2011 officially ended.

If you know or follow me, either here on through my twitter you know I am a fan (and a devoted practicer) of many sports: I love tennis, swimming, horseback riding, volleyball.

I regularly practice them all and add yoga, pilates, general fitness to the list; but when it comes to my way to be a sporty fan, you know I have only 2 teams: MilanAC for football, and Los Angeles Lakers for basketball.

And once again, my two passions couldn’t go hand in hand in celebratory mood at the end of this season, as it has happened a lot lately (for a certainly consistent amount of years, in fact).

Good Job, Good Fellas. GOOD JOB.

So, as you MUST know, Milan won his 18th Scudetto on Saturday (we were in Florence and we found even there Milanists celebrating… super cool!!!), and yesterday we celebrated back in Milan with friends (even NOT Milan supporters, aren’t we kind or what?), waiting for the REAL celebration on incoming Saturday in San Siro (I can’t friggin wait!) happy and chanting and all dressed in Red&Black (they are my two favorite colors anyway 😉 so that’s pretty easy for me to pick up stylish stuff in my closet ;)) first in downtown Milano and then at Karim’s pad – he still lukewarm about this whole “soccer”thing, but he loves to party along at least ;).

I still believe the team is far from amazingly assembled; and Champions League‘s struggles totally proved my point (and you all know Milanists only care about Champions… so a Scudetto is great, but not nearly as great. FACT).

But I loved the way we played with the good attitude in this Serie A and no matter how we weren’t flawless we managed to be sufficiently consistent when the falling off of our opponents opened a wide door for us to pass through and reach a valuable goal.

The struggles are important; my Japanese-shaped working ethic implies that only from battling the greatest things eventually come.

Milan Campione. After 7th years. Hell yeah!

I salute you Milan: you did extremely well with the little you’ve got: now please try to get what we need for getting another Champions because we’re so far away from Manchester United and Barcelona‘s amazing level that it will take a revolution for us to be competetive again where it ONLY does matter.

My award of the year for Milan goes to Allegri.

I don’t have a player to honor… because they were not that great honestly, but he did a great job in not making the cracks show too often or too long to taunt Milan’s legacy in Serie A this year and trust… that requested skills.

Managing a team that shows clearly flaws requests so many good qualities even to begin detailing them is hard.

It requests psychological understanding, charisma, strength, motivational impulses; you have to be patient, you have to get foresight, you have to be cool and clear in your vision and you often have to hide in an unreachable part the most logical essence of you, without letting it disappear, to keep pushing people who are not what you would like them to be, but who are those you need to shape and ameliorate to reach a target which is skipping out of your grab like a ball bouncing, if you don’t set the record straight at multiple times in a season, in multiple ways.

This makes a good link to pass the torch to the Dark Side of my Sporty Tao for 2011.

While Milan is the light part, with a dark core, Lakers sadly have been the Dark side, with what I think still is a luminous inmost part.

I am so blunt and angry we gave up THIS HORRIBLE WAY to Cuban… But I could never give up on my Lakers pride.

Which is acknowledged by the Lakers themselves.

Even more angry that this probably means LeBronze will finally get a ring.

If they pass Celtics (and odds are 60% to me now… even though I still consider Celtics a way better team than Heat, where I only consider Dwade a superior player), sadly the NBA has them as frontrunners: I don’t see Mavs surviving any of the East teams to be honest and OKC seem still so very young and naive (but I’d love to be proved wrong).

But really, it’s months that I don’t feel this had to be (or could be) our year.

In all this, know one fact: PHIL JACKSON IS THE GREATEST COACH / MANAGER EVER.

I am desperate we will lose him.

His way to be what he is is what I think basketball strategy and play should be; I’m a Triangle devoted and I love the Sun-Tzu‘s quality of this game approach and no other coach will ever give that back to me, once Phil’s gone.

Forever in my heart. The one and only, Phil Jackson.

What makes me sad in the way Lakers lost this year, is the fact we waved Phil goodbye with a never-happened-before humiliatingly received SWEPT.

That is awful.

I was speechless yesterday whenever cameras would show Phil’s face on Dallas’ homecourt.

You could see his dignity shining, and I couldn’t believe the history of sport had to have THAT slap as final gift to one of the greatest people EVER in the whole of world’s sport legacies.

He didn’t deserve it and we shouldn’t have allowed it.

But truth is we couldn’t stop it.

For the year that has gone, I never ever felt we were having that clutch quality to us anymore; it hurts me because if you have followed me these years, you know how much I have always had that sureness about our games, even in times when everybody but Kobe and Derek probably would have given up on us (last year’s 7th game for instance) I JUST KNEW.

But this year that inexplicable faith wasn’t there.

I never felt we could move mountains.

I never felt Kobe was there to save us, this year.

Phil Jackson. HERO.

And it hurt. It hurts.

I worship Kobe, and I have this trust in him which is unparalleled and still so it was a shock for me to realize I wasn’t believing he could always have saved us in this season.

But we will get back on top, and so will Kobe, and it will happen just thank of this huge demise (because this is what happened this year… a bounderless demise).

I was scared at the start of the year, when we seemed unstoppable, to realize we hadn’t apparent faults (see above post dedicated to Milan); because no team is perfect, and it has not to be, especially from the start.

You gotta perfect your game, and ask things to yourself to get constantly better and focused in a season; and to start up so easily didn’t put any of us in the right state of mind.

And you don’t get a right state of mind easily, especially as a two time defender champion, if nothing rings a bell in time…

We had to wake up and see incredible losses and blackouts: but unlike previous years, out from mistakes we weren’t growing; we seemed to recycle mistakes in new combination, and never get past them by evolving through them.

My shining sporty hero in pain

I don’t think it was a chemistry issue: in fact I still think we were a BETTER built team than past years; it was I believe a trust issue, but not in the way it sounds when I say it.

I’ll try to explain, because it makes me feel less pain inside to analyze things.

I still a scientist,  you know.

What stopped us this year, was a mental rely that we had in our skills; we past so many battles the past three years, that the players faced an hard time in not feeling able to revolve things anyway, at a certain point.

It’s more than complacency, and it’s not only complacency.

It’s a mental way of the body and the mind to save energies by getting through known and experienced paths that have already worked.

Somehow this year we missed the chance of discovering a new way to be great, and by the time that further quality we should have chased and developed  had tp be there to make us win, we simply… hadn’t “IT”.

And you cannot invent it at the moment.

I don’t claim this lack of craft as a conscious process, otherwise I’d BLAME my players hard; I think it’s a fine psychological balance the one of the achieving athlete, to try to squeeze the best out of himself, and resetting every time the past, although everyone claims they’re able to, is actually the most unbearable of things to be done.

Pau was a ghost in these playoffs but he will step up back.

Every time.

Then there is the real physical struggle: to reach for the FOURTH year straight a final series is something hugely demanding.

There is no comparable efforts in team sports: and simply, this year it couldn’t be done.

It couldn’t.

The way some of our players played these playoffs have been jaw-dropping delusional and disappointing.

Pau and Lamar have been shells of their former and possible selves; Andrew didn’t come up with a strong mind (unless last year) and Ron, Derek, and yes also Kobe just couldn’t be fully themselves.

Being these all players who have been there and done that already, I am sure they COULD see how nothing was actually right.

But what can you do if not trying to make things right nonetheless?

The way we fell apart also in style in Game 4 against Dallas (classless and unforgivable way to end a game to me, but I see from where it came from, just like Derek said) is a clear sign of this all.

Not cool, Lamar. Not cool.

It is the way sports work: we need to reset.

We didn’t reset this year, and if you don’t do that you won’t live another season of glory, because you will be struck in a past one that was gone and couldn’t re-happen.

Many things are on the horizon: I think the team will change, and it will be tough for me to see some people (beside Phil) go away.

I am deeply thankful to all of my Lakers for the emotions they have gifted me with; even today that I am in pain and I mourn over a loss to Cuban’s team.

I respect the Mavs, but I despise violently their hating owner.

I can’t help but love my guys instead: even today…

That was awful, Drew. NO NO NO.

You’ve gifted me two years of Los Angeles celebration, and I would have loved a different one this year that I am marrying; but as my Labyrinthitis kicked out me from my usual way to follow you live every night, I felt this couldn’t be another glory Summer and I can’t blame you for your imperfect effort, when I first I couldn’t do my best as a fan.

Next year, my dears: next year we will be back on top, and I will also be back in my nightly owling support, after all the therapies will complete their runs.

We need struggles to evolve and we needed this to wake up from past dream, so that we could feel what we want to achieve as NEXT dream.

I am not feeling destroyed.

I only feel pumped to chase something huger and better next time; I long to see what we will be shaped like.

I know Kobe now REALLY will have to rethink himself as a player again to have HIS LAST ROUND OF RINGS (yeah, you read correctly: he will get TWO more before he says stop:mark my words) and he will achieve that without Phil.

I am still tall and proud in my Laker faith today; just today that everything seems a ruin.

I will miss this pair together. FOREVER. Thank you.

It’s not.

We will surface back again from our ashes, like a purple and gold burning phoenix.

Don’t doubt, and chin up, Laker Nation.

This is just a Summer a bit longer to rest and collect back forces.

Our next Parade just got delayed a tiny bit.

And just because of that, we will celebrate better and louder when it will come.

I hope my fellow fans are not too down; I hope we will not do anything unclassy and stay confident and cool.

We have the HONOR to be following a wonderful team whose glory shines through the years and so will again and always.

So let’s not be whiny and just let’s put things in the right and real perspective.

We cannot always win, but we will be up in line to win again just immediately, I have NO DOUBTS AT ALL there.

FOREVER A LAKER.

FOREVER A MILANIST.

Good day everyone ;), I still your very happy Miss 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.

Hola!

19 hours after the takin off from Malpensa...

I’m around packing and unpacking and repacking for a very intense  schedule, folks… and since it has been one month without updates, I thought about givin you some.

I’m in a very dreamy place as I am writing this… I have a breathtaking view in front of me and I am relaxing with my man after hours of meetings and professionally mattering dinners out.

I am at a very wonderful place right now… you will see at the end of the post ;).

I am actually patching something like… erm… 450 links into this one update, as I am traveling Milan > Los Angeles > New York > Paris (and then it will be Paris > Milan > Berlin > DEATH BED I guess ;)…).

Get used to these very sporadic dates with me in this fashion, because life is just too full for me to have more time to ponder about blogging.

Twitter has taken over as my favorite way to communicate thoughts around: it’s faster, less invasive, immediate and carrying the phone around everytime makes it a quickie that fits my fast life pacing way better than blogging.

It’s just the way it is 😉

I have been recovering quite decently from Labyrinthitis (see previous post), even though I still a bit dizzy at times.

Cuteness female...

Before taking off to Los Angeles (via London) I had finally the permission from doctors to ride my Sweet Swifty again (well, I didn’t really ride him… I mounted him for some dressage… the both of us needed some “contact”  between us after almost two months parted and even if that isn’t our favorite thing to do together, believe me it was clear my lovely horse was finally ecstatic I was on him again).

I also had a wonderful Carnival party in Milan just the other Tuesday: Sami decided to do her best and allow Karim and I to not miss the bash (as we are all over the world in the main festivities… we will have to also attempt a strange version of Ambrosian Carnival in between Milan and Berlin moves…).

I also probably chose my marriage dress.

I said “probably”.

I completed my 8th fitting and out of 8 stylists I have one dress that I have fallen in love with.

As I return home from the other side of the world I will have the final say.

The stop in New York with our wedding planner will furtherly drive me there, I guess.

Cuteness male 😉

Though you know… all these trips are actually for working meetings mainly (but I always manage to fit in more things,especially after at the end of January it was Fede the one flying to New York to substitute me in the originary planned first partner meeting of 2011…).

While in Los Angeles Karim had actually been invited to some of the gazillions luxurious super parties that are in town for the Academy Awards… but he denied all of them because in the small free times that we have out from working commitments we like to live the quieter side of the City of Angels, staying in our surroundings, getting accustomed to our house (which we sooooooo love) and share time with just one another.

Then, Mash is in Europe for the Weeks of Fashion in the main cities and we have no chances for threesomes this time (okay, at the aforementioned parties sure that could have been an option but we don’t like cokeheads and those parties LIVE up and on on cocaine… so no thanx ;))

Vintage gig 2007

The best part of the Oscars time is that we will get to get off from LA to NY takin off from LAX when NOBODY will leave the town… that will make our internal USA move way more pleasant 😉 (yes, I consider lots of famous people absolutely insufferable so I actually hate when it happens that we find them in first class… mainly because the wide majority of them are ALL but first class people in the end ;))

But okay… let’s be a bit more clear in this update… tracking back from last month or something 😉

Not that I have actually done that much myself, because for a good cut I had to be struck at home battling the development of “Laby”; I thank the Skies that I have the cutest friends, the most awesome family and the best boyfriend and fiancé in the world because without their care and support I would have really become gloomy.

I hated being dependent and I hated to not be able to be me; now it’s better (of course, I’m even traveling…) but I still unable to swim, do yoga, and do all my regular things so there’s space to improve yet.

I also am very blessed to have Carlo now, who’s the best personal assistant a human could ask for.

LOVE YOU ALL 🙂

One of the greatest news of the past weeks is that I WILL FINALLY SEE THE HANAMI IN JAPAN:

Yes, we will go there for my birthday as we have also to check the in-location places our wedding planner has selected for the marriage itself.

NO NEED TO SAY I AM OVER THE MOON!!!!

Spending Sunday Morning in LA: No Lakers on tv. We stroll around 😉

Talkin about trips, we also managed to have a lovely Valentine Day’s private time, unexpected, and awesome, in beautiful France again.

Nothing like Paris… we have rented a house we are just about to use again in a few days from now when we will fly from New York to Paris: first for Maroon5  gig and then for more working commitments (both of Kand myself).

I must admit these hectic times, my Laby stumbling, the fierce chaos of my life trying to keep pacing with the marriage organization, the pr duties, Karim and I needs for time quietly together, the way we cannot ever neglect our amazing families and friends, forced me in many ways to give up on things I do love, like for instance watching Lakers games at night (I am forbidden by doctors: I have to sleep at least 6-7 hours a night) and therefore also writing in the Lakers Blog has been cut (not the reading though), even though some special events, like honoring phred, had to be done anyway ;).

I also gotta have a moment of pride still related with Laker Nation Fandom…

Because when Adam talks about Lakers, Lakers listen and sometimes they retweet him: of course that prompts a double enthusiastic response from me, that got acknowledged by… GOSH!!!!

Amazing @Lakers THEMSELVES, who…

So, The Lakers sent me a Direct Message on Twitter... 😉 *Me #FTW* 😉

YEP… They sent me a direct message.

That made me giggle (okay, it’s idiotic but I reacted so 😉 what can I do… ;))

The one and only Kobe Bean Bryant ALL Star MVP. For the 4th time 😉

We are pondering about some Laker-Land moment… we have been on such a roller coaster about our Purple and Gold, but we keep rooting, always and insistently, because our blood PULSES in Lakers colors and we just couldn’t be anything less than fanatics about them.

Some things put us in a great orientation (the All Star Game, the Boston Game, The Portland Game…) but some other things just don’t ring true…

STILL.

We just gotta hope playoffs see us blossom- and we gotta trust the one and only Black Mamba. ALWAYS.

The way the latest trades have shaped the NBA is tricky in my opinion and not in a good way for us.

I don’t like (unlike for instance Adam) the way the East seemed to get tougher: I strongly believe the best the competition is in the League of belonging, the toughest and most focused a team becomes; plus you may imagine how disgusted I am about the way DARN KNICKS TREATED MY DANY.

Homeboy got betrayed.

From now on, think of that, my list of dislikes about teams goes this way: 1) Miami; 2) New York; 3) Boston.

That’s it.

My very productive time in Los Angeles.

It’s also too bad while in Los Angeles we missed a good chance to see the GOOD version of the Lakers (double disappointment because Anne was there too with Gene and Noah… getting sweetly excited and as funny as ever…), because these some as 56 hours in LA are only dedicated to work for me (meetings on Friday, representative dinner on Friday, Meetings on Saturday, representative meet and greet on Saturday – when everybody not working would be partying for pre-Oscars…- then on Sunday we are chosing to rest and… to have a special surprise then takin off to New York at evening.

People are calling us insane for givin up the BIG “W” party (Karim’s family… how to put it in… is “friendly” of them brothers…) but we couldn’t care less: we went  (I WENT) in LA this time for my business, and sorry, when it’s about focusing on serious things, the party girl in me disappears in front of the “I’m gonna become a millionaire on my own” one ;).

Without regrets at ALL.:)

But ehi, at least Lakers do look better now even though Kobe Bryant’s elbow newly injured against the Clippers might be a new and further concern.

Oh… a worthy mention in this blog update – before I forget – FOR SURE has to be the amazing show Roberto Benigni did at Sanremo Festival.

Benigni is this era Charlie Chaplin… only even better if it’s possible to say.

The most exciting thing that is actually keepin on making even these days that I am away is the video homage I’m planning for what will be OUR MARRIAGE SONG, namely the wonderful STUTTER.

Meli started working on it by the end of January and she has provided some amazingness so far that I am willingly sharing with you all (the video will be nothing like this… believe I’m putting my best in it).

I think this time the best link in between the posts about my life and the M5 related stuff is clearly this fact 😉

So take some sneak peek at what Meli has drawed and remember to tune in around middle march on my Youtube Page, because this time the homage to Adam (and Anne)’s birthday(s) will actually be Stutter:

And now after my business let’s try to track back more than a month of M5 news, even though starting with music I should say first that:

NEW RADIOHEAD ALBUM  THE KING OF LIMBS IS AMAZING and definitely already best album of 2011 (sorry, I know… you may try to argue but you lose): as soon as it came out (a day earlier than planned) Karim and I went to Florence for an awesome weekend and we did listen to anything but that. Codex is at the moment our favorite song in the world and that’s why I have used it as backsound of the lil collage in motion that I have made of Adam and Anne at the 2011 Grammy Awards (you will see it later ;))

NEW ADELE ALBUM IS FANTASTIC and I’m thrilled all the world is tributing her glory (it’s months that I am saying she’s best female vocalist currently), plus, Adam himself declared the most right of loves about the whole package (so his taste still good, because incoming awful collaboration with Travis McCoy could have set people off there… me certainly 😉 ) Gym Class Hero my assADELE is one voice he should aim to collaborate with. PERIOD.);

COLDPLAY ARE PLOTTING FESTIVALS AND I WILL SEE THEM IN ITALY AND BRAZIL (cos when they’re in UK  I am taken with marriage ;)),

GRAMMY AWARDS THESE YEAR WERE AWESOME (but that is gonna be encompassed in the M5 post part anyway ;))

I ADORE BEADY EYE’S “THE ROLLER” AND THEIR WHOLE RECORD, and I have got further evidence Liam Gallagher’s voice is just magical to me.

We were leaving from past post Adam and Anne in Los Angeles together; she had arrived after her own commitment that made her miss the Critics Choice Awards after shooting Never Gonna Leave This Bed video, which was shot after Adam and the guys had a great night out with PJ Morton at the Troubadour.

I recuperated a video of the after party of the Critics Choice Awards, but I still unable to break the codex that keeps the USA images of the performance honoring Tarantino impossible to be viewed outside US (I haven’t really minded that enough maybe, but ehi, I have a life so content yourself ;)):

And while we’re at, check the awesome duet on Heavy of Adam and PJ at the Trobadour from this post (click over and you will see the page and the live video, too):

Adam Levine and PJ Morton perform Heavy at the Troubadour

I also found a very cute page with a video of Adam and Jesse sharing some cityseeing tips that you might like (they’re always hilarious together); again, click on the pic and get to the video page:

Maroon 5 can't live without this...

Anne in that maintime as you know had to rock her new bangs in the Pepe campaign that I showed you before; those days away she also tweeted about some things she was doing in Spain that later shaped up to be a WONDERFUL celebratory issue of Harpers Bazaar’s Spain: for their 1 year anniversary issue Anne got the cover and a gorgeous editorial; she also did some things in Germany do you remember?

Yep.

And do you remember (see last post) when around Xmas time she tweeted from LA that she had a photo session with Yu Tsai?

Well, that ended being a wonderful spread for TUSH Magazine.

Since I like all those, I created a little video to present you all the pictures 😉 (and I like the song that I picked up for soundtrack… I know… you know… I might be cold towards her voice but I LOVE all her songs which are dance-y and speak of heavily sexual stuff 😉 I rely 😉 LOL):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

Anne was away also to be the first Face at Escada’s defilé, as you remember, and those images are also into this other mini video that I created that unifies some random images of Adam and Anne (also from her previous years’ Sports Illustrated spreads… more to come about THIS year after of course):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

After all those commitments Anne flew back to Los Angeles, where she could appreciate lovely romantic things such as the full moon and less iconic, but still great more playful things like bowling… and allegedly she as skills there.

Anne beats Adam in bowling 😉

Many skills ;).

Adam and Anne spent some lovely days in Los Angeles, and Adam also came out to support Sam’s gameshe could be a perfect soccer mom – ; allegedly they ventured out all lovey dovey in their own business time, but we got to learn through third parties that allegedly they couldn’t keep much hands off one another.

And I mean…

Also in public places 😉

I so totally picture that… *sweet* and *very sexy*.

Karim and I do the same so I completely support them there ;).

In fact the two lovebirds, after the cuteness of their Los Angeles rendez-vousflew way before the rest of Maroon 5 in Jamaica; Maroon 5 were meant to be part of the Jamaica Jazz and Blues Festival, but Adam and Anne decided to go to the beautiful Caribbean Island before and alone to… well… to keep minding their own business.

And they decided those days alone they would have been REALLY alone: they cut off all phone related facilities.

*lovely*

In full.

Then they had business, and a good one, as a band of course.

Read some interview of James about the way the guys love islands ;):

James about Jamaica Jazz

You will see from the pics from the event that FINALLY after more than a gap of 16 months (last time he had done it he was with Angela Bellotte in New York in September 2009!!!!) Adam DID SHAVE HEAD AGAIN, rocking again one of his many styles (and you know I love him with the razored-off hair… his face is so beautiful he can rock it so well).

Finally!!!!

I was like “What is, Anne is banning you from doing it?” (insert cute laughing ;)… I don’t think she actually did it), because you know that elapsed time without chopping off all his Chia-Pet like hair was really unusual for Adam ;).

I actually remember that years ago somebody told me Jane (yes… THAT Jane, the one and only, Miss – now Missus actually – Jane Herman, daughter of Fred Segal’s owner Mr. Herman, the Muse behind “Songs About”) used to mock Adam’s shorter do.

Jane Herman. That Jane of "Songs About Jane" ;)

Don’t know if that is true (by those times they were in not happy terms with one another, though now they are ) but whatever it is, you know I am grateful forever to Jane because without her cruelty to Adam, we wouldn’t know Maroon 5 at all ;).

Really... trash. REALLY. Glad it never blossomed. UGH.

And by the way, you know the only girlfriend Adam had that I really HATED to see him paired with was the Bunny Ho herself, Janine Habeck, the German playmate.

I am so so glad after that downfall (I don’t consider the flings he had with Parasite Hilton a serious thing, so she’s out of the UGH list but just because it was a fuck&go thing, that anyway gave us a cooooool song like Figure it Out ;)) Adam’s taste in women got back decently arising.

And you know how ecstatic I am of his choice over Anne.

Because I like him with classy looking people (you know I always loved him with Natalie P. too, even though she loved to make him feel culturally inadequate… like she uses to with anybody not “Harvard”-ed after all ;)…

But better a noisy obnoxious LOVELY and talented Natalie than anything nearby the trashy territories that Janine Habeck symbolized.

But okay, let’s stop this gossip back down to a not so stellar memory lane and let’s get back in Jamaica where the two lovebirds took sun and

well…

You will see from tweets and images from the gig…

Some kind of reproachable fashion sense.

*sigh*.

Adam… dear Lord… why oh why sometimes you go THAT color blind?

The wrong kind of rainbow around your body can kill even your undebatable hotness.  And capri pants on a male… gosh they’re so awful… Okay that Jamaica (in the words of Jesse I presume) may have changed you forever, but hopefully your perception of what’s good to wear will get back soon to “PRIOR” to it? 😉

The pictures in the small video are a sneak pick out from THIS SET on Flickr that you should check cos it’s AWESOME:

Okay that you loved those shoes… but why being a colorful hippie meeting an emo guy?

Adam and Mickey in Porto Rico, January 2011

Luckily the stop after Jamaica (Porto Rico) saw Adam keep the shoes, but being way better matched in the rest of the outfit…

As this picture evidences 😉

It makes me laugh sometimes to see how Adam can transition from being PERFECTLY ELEGANT AND PREPPY to be honestly looking like a homeless (and still hot, because with that body and face, he would be hot even dressed in recycled paper…)

Take a Journey in Adam Levine’s Style Rollercoaster through clicking this link (and know that for me the preppy style is actually his best and will forever be, because his noble features SHINE when he’s aptly dressed…)

The Caribbean tournament in Porto Rico wasn’t followed by Anne who had to fly away (and she also of course had loved the Magic of the Island… I wonder if she’s the reason Adam claimed there it changed him forever? I guess SO);  but we learnt soon that the two lovers would have reunited a bunch of days later in Dallas for the Superbowl: Maroon 5 were set to perform, both at the Saturday Direct TV Celebrity Bowl Bash, and for the Tailgate Party of Fox the actual Day of The Superbowl on the official entertainment schedule.

While parted, Anne got to see the movie that I loved the most personally out of the Oscars’ roaster, the AWESOME The Kings Speech. And since her taste are great (who can argue?) she seemed to love it as much as me.

Adam… well… Adam has other tastes for movies.

SIGH. 😉

Btw, you do remember Anne filming with Freja in London when she was there in the days of Maroon5 presence past October, do you? (yep, the very romantic time they had there, and the days when Adam shot the Cosmopolitan naked spread, yep)…

Well, that was for the H&M new Spring Summer Campaign, and now you can see it (click on the picture and you’ll reach the page with the video of the spot):

Anne V and Freja E for H&M Spring Summer Campaign: click on for video

Now let’s instead get into lovely Mickey Madden’s world (you know how much I do have a soft, soft, SOFT spot about him!!!) because he proved once more how much of a lovely and deep creature he is by speaking again about his veganism.

You know I am not into that, but after reading him you know also I totally respect that vision too (mostly because he doesn’t act nor speak like a self assured blinder about it):

Mickey and his dedicated vegan behaviour

You gotta just love Mickey don’t You?

While on the break before Super Bowl, and among chronicle still of their Caribbean times, all of the guys obviously returned to Los Angeles.

The tenderness that California home inspires to them all, but mostly Adam makes it so hard for them to bend to touring.

Gotta reflect on that, because now that they’re actually on the other side of the world, you often, very often get the clear feeling that although they sure love to meet and play for fans everywhere, they also undoubtedly are kind of resident types of musicians.

They always were.

In a way I am glad in my life I’ve got to see them so many times (these incoming triades of Paris, Milan and Berlin marks if I recall correctly my 16th, 17th and 18th times I’ve seen them live…) already because a tiny voice inside me says quite insistently that it might be not much time left before they openly and totally change their vision about going all over the world to play live.

Adam tweeted from Superbowl (see later) about the 17th Birthday of Maroon5 – then Kara’s Flowers – on February 6th: I can’t help but thinkin this time 17th might actually be a not so happy number.

As they would say…

“It’s just a feeling that I have”.

But it’s pretty consistent and I have to say some of the rumors that are floating around about tv shows (I will talk of that later) pretty much confirm these feelings, actually.

Let’s see 😉

PS: In this very moment I’m listening to one of the best albums ever, by a recent discover of mine (how late I am there? I feel ashamed!).

PLEASE CHECK ANYTHING BY “JOAN AS POLICEWOMAN“.

That’s pretty PERFECT awesome music.

For real.

I’m also very into I BLAME COCO at the moment. Northern European music genes produce amazing beats.

And then, beside Radiohead and Adele (see above), I am TOTALLY and completely in LOVE with the awesome iTunes acoustic session of Maroon5, which is pretty spectacular and which I have used a lot in all my patchwork videos of this update as backsound tracks.

It’s AWESOME.

GET IT FROM THIS LINK: and do like me… buy only original music if you want to keep music alive.

Okay, back in tracking 😉

Oh… while I’m all over the world Meli still drawing for me of course… though u gonna know THIS PARTICULARLY drawing she already made a few weeks ago had been brought to our Los Angeles home

Gotta put it where it belongs the most (see above about Adam being difficult in partying from his native town… LOL!).

I thought it was fine to place his portrait in a convenient space…

Am I sweet or not?

Also sweet are Maroon5 Latin America fans (and I wonder… don’t they deserve a tour there too? Do it guys, don’t be cruel…).

Among curious news then know that Maroon5 music is also good to train for… FIGHTING.

Seriously 😉 Oh… and as usual Jesse keep sharing cute and brainful things, and they still SWEETHEARTS (Haiti isn’t forgotten right?) and so we all must follow their charitable lead, too.

Let's paaaarty 😉

As on the West Coast the guys were relaxing prior to Dallas, Anne was gearing up for the commitments with Sports Illustrated Swimsuit stuff. She also seemed so happy, poor lovely sweet creature… unaware yet how she would have been tricked – and STOLEN, in my not so humble opinion –  there once more.

You will see I had so much foresight there… unfortunately (not that I have anyhow ever trusted the taste of that magazine… they seem to prefer the most trivial models instead than those who could give them a classy sparkle anyway… So very and uncannily trashy americanism… so far away from European appreciation of elegance also in semi-nudity…).

Anyway, after all that it was SuperBowl Time, with the parties and the playing duties (too bad Adam did not also play at the Celebrity Beach Bowl, but only providing the music to it… I mean… Adam Levine, Matt Bomer at one sight? Malish beauty straight and gay at its peak ;)…)

The three days (that Adam almost missed due to the snowfalls and the late airplanes arrivals, while Anne flew way before him and way more in time… ;)…) were fullfilled and cute and among the minions things they did do, also regarding Anne including fellow SI Swimsuit gals, I have decided to cut the chase short and put all images in a mini video, so that you can get a complete glimpse of images and events, and I can just limit myself in comments by linking Adam and Anne’s twitter posts about the events later (and now).

I am starting to optimize also inspired by Adam’s witty mood – maybe – … or getting almost there 😉

Oh and yes… Adam was darn ORANGE at Dallas weekend.

Embarassingly so: I guess since he did shave from Jamaica, the gradient detach from the tanned skin and the shaved face forced him to a repair… but good Lord… that was so Jersey Shore it did hurt even his perfect face!!! (and in fact he admitted it later… though maybe his way to even the orange madness might not be that good of a solution either lmao… ;)).

From the tv take this excerpts of their perfomance from the Tailgate Party:

I just adore the whole of this to be honest… Getting glimpses of the happiness and satisfaction they all communicated out is satisfying for their listeners / followers too and makes you feel sweetly empathic.

It’s a mood booster in many ways, honestly: then I just feel fine in picturing all of the guys happy, in whatever way or due to whatever reason… I’m this much of a lightweight, yep.

And to be still more honest Keith and the guys would have been a better half time performers choice than dreadful Black Eyed Peas were in my book... the only thing I liked there was Usher’s dancing and since you know for me Usher‘s so overrated, you get an idea… ;).

During the days of Superbowl finally the awesome video for Never Gonna Leave This Bed was released: I STRAIGHT bought it from iTunes and unlike it did happen with the HAO video awfulness, the greatness of this latest video actually made me like the song MORE.

It’s an awesome video, check it:

Everyone was so excited about it, and RIGHTLY so 😉

Past the  SuperBowl Time, it was time for everybody to get back to Los Angeles, as Grammy week was approaching (Adam seemed inspired about fashion choices days before the event… LOL).

Yeah... you saw it already but why not again? 😉

Anne was actually able to reach LA safely and way before Adam did, obtaining good Venice spare time in between.

Days prior the event were a round of preparation, and also there were a pre Sports Illustrated public relation management for Anne, and for Adam a preparation pre European Tour take-off and add to that some time in the studio (hopefully for something we will be able to hear soon?).

But they managed to spend their good times together, and Adam couldn’t hold his praise for his lady not even with his more famous friends, like Ryan Seacrest.

And to be cute to one another (awwww… how cute is of Adam to worry about her safety driving?), of course (and to FrankieGirl!!! Look how cute she is…).

During the days in Los Angeles Adam got to see the video of Sara Bareilles‘s incoming new single, UNCHARTED, in which he sings and stars along with tons of others musicians, being part of the “writer block” song.

You all know I heart massively Sara and to me is always a soothing moment whenever she and the guys merge visions to produce true art in sound and motion and whatever else they decide to put efforts into.

Can’t wait to see the results (the video director is Travis Schneider, the same behind Vevey Forever video and book).

They of course headed to the pre-Grammies bashes, and the best among them is ALWAYS The Roots’ one.

Adam also gave some interviews.

One is on the March Issue of Women’s Health:

Adam on Women's Health Magazine March 2011

The other instead was given the days prior to the Grammies at the Jewish Chronicle and I TOTALLY loved it to pieces:

Adam Levine interviewed by The Jewish Chronicle Feb 2011

Back to the Grammy thing now… You know how much of a let down was last year’s Grammy to me, because I thought it was a pure shame to land Taylor Swift the major prizes, and I was fearing something awfully similar could have happened in 2011 too: instead, seriousness was restored.

This year instead I have to say practically all results were awesome to me, and I would have just let Eminem win more landing him the two SOTY and ROTY awards instead of landing them at over boring Lady Antebellum (I can’t help: country-pop to me is lame, lame, LAME).

I have also to confess that I think Train deserved the Grammy they took over Maroon5.

Maroon 5 in iTunes shots

That song (Ehi Soul Sister) was straight a pure pop-rock  gem and I have loved it completely since I first heard it: if any, you gotta criticize the Academy to not reckoning the greatness of that song in its due year (last one), but like it did happen with Maroon5’s win for This Love, the fact they put the “live” version of the song up for grab told everyone they were rightly the frontrunners for the prize.

I repeat… I think it was fair, actually. Too bad we couldn’t see Adam and the guys televised in another Grammy grab though, like they did in 2005.

Misery is a very good song, but it was no better: now if STUTTER had been instead the first single out of Hands All Over, I keep saying all the performance of the album would have been better, and I am SURE the success both the song and the record could have then enjoyed would have landed Maroon5 their fourth Grammy.

Adam said he is ready for 2012.

I appreciate the positivity.

Let’s see 😉

For sure one awesome thing was the fact Adam performed onstage with Rihanna, Eminem, Dre and awesome vocalist and songwriter Skylar Grey (they bonded at the after party, too allegedly), showing us once more how much of great musician he is, taking duties playing PIANO (I was blown away: that man can do EVERYTHING… if he only would focus on music “Kobe Mode”… *sigh* he can be so perfect being naturally himself):

Adam Levine’s talent is just MASSIVE. Face it.

But let’s start from the start…

Better… let’s start from the PRE-Start.

Adam caused a bit of Mayhem the Friday before Grammies when he couldn’t help but notice (as anyone older than 13) that the new Lady Gaga’s smash hit, Born This Way, was like a Madonna’s medley.

Given that Adam has always expressed admire for Gaga, it’s hard not to notice he was right.

Well, funny enough…

Anne had her entrance at the Grammies NOT along Adam… but Along Lady Gaga 😉 (you hear the song… tell me if Adam wasn’t right ;)):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

No shock or tricky facts… she just had the honor of being part of Lady Gaga’s theatric entrance in an egg, dressed by Thierry Mugler as a horned tall amazon, holding… a vassel that carried Gaga inside, like a womb.

And it was so sweet the way Adam rooted for her, once again Oh man they’re so adorable paired :)…

In this interview from the Official Grammy Red Carpet you see Ryan Seacrest interviewing BOTH Anne and Adam, as they reached the event on February 13th (this is a French News covering of Anne, too):

This video doesn’t exist

Adam’s look was object of some controversy, too (and object of a funny tease by Kurt Sutter, Sons Of Anarchy creator, via Hart Hanson ;)).

I personally loved it (even tough you know I hate capri pants on a male, those pants were instead very European Fashion Forward, very stylish, and loved the whole of his mise).

Of course the Americans are too tacky to understand male fashion and they blasted him on the subsequent Fashion Police Show:

To be honest I don’t think Joan Rivers was actually rude or anything… I think she’s just a bit obsessed about Adam’s sexual life (you may remember a few weeks ago she said that thing about being a female in Hollywood, and getting busy with either Adam or John Mayer…)

Anyway after their entrance they of course stay together all time, and Anne changed her Alien Outfit in favor of an adorable silver and grey dress which was a very good match with Adam’s mise, too:

Error
This video doesn’t exist

The party night was only partially shared though, because Anne had to fly straight towards New York to attend the David Letterman’s unveiling of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover.

Hence, after she praised her man, and before her man headed to the best and most secluded VIP party of the night, she ventured to LAX to catch a red-eye flight to Big Apple.

Adam's Valentine sent to Anne in New York

When she woke up, it was Valentine’s Day too… and she wished happily to everybody to feel it… because Adam sure made sure she had felt it, sending her flowers while she was at the backstage at Ed Sullivan’s Theathre with Letterman (AWWWW).

I wonder how cute that could feel…

Sending love from Coast To Coast 😉

It was maybe that one the call Adam was taken with while shopping in Los Angeles those hours – as you see in the collage below -, before leaving to Europe?

Adam Levine shopping in LA on Valentine's Day 2011

Because as Anne was getting preppy for the big appearing and all the 10 SI Swimsuit girls were gathering in New York, the guys were putting together the final details in their schedules (and suitcases) before saying “bye bye” to United States for a first tranche lasting 5 weeks (the 5 weeks where I WILL SEE THEM, so some truly amazing five weeks on my own behalf, sure ;)… but a strong streak for far away lovers, even though they will sure re-meet before… well, before Russian times for sure, at least ;)).

Anyway, Adam was cheering for Anne a lot, but as I predicted, and as the PR campaign was mostly making clear in the past month, the cover of SI SWIMSUIT 2011 went to a girl who keeps looking to me like a person whose face screams “I cost this much per hour” even though Anne seems of a very different opinion than mine (but she’s always so lovely, I wasn’t expecting any differently).

I can’t help: I find Irina Shayk‘s face really gross and vulgar (also her Intimissimi ad that keeps running on Italian tv screams pornstar to me…).

Girl has a wonderful bottom body (legs and ass especially) but she’s got plunging belly and an axis eyes/nose/lips which seems too much unelegant and trashy to me.

Adam and his love for Italian food

I can’t help.

To me this is a PR mistake, as bad as modeling choice as it was the lame Brooklyn Decker (but at least she was having huge breasts… Irina hasn’t even them instead).

I fear next year cover can go to Chrissy Teigen now, which would be a total laughable shame, as the girl TOTALLY is average looking (even less than that to me) and she’s short and pretty boring on any shot I’ve seen of her.

But she has a very strong support, the editors totally ride her up and it seems everyone finds her funny (Adam also started following on twitter both her and John Legend… I can understand the latter, at least ;)).

Well, it’s not really like Sports Illustrated is THAT much of a big deal (it maybe WAS, but to be honest Anne has the kind of body/features/style/shape that can allow her to do way more high fashion stuff, than SI Swimsuit could ever land to her).

It’s a long time SI cover models are never high fashion ones: Marisa Miller (beautiful, but short), Beyonce (I know… ;)), Bar Rafaeli (short and with tendency to get fat); Brooklyn Decker (a pair of HUGE boobs, no runaway shape, and a face that to be defined butterlike is way too kind).

Irina Shayk may be the closest the cover has gotten to fashion these past years, but still nowhere near credible fashion (her face is too overly sexualized to be ok in high fashion photography).

Anyway… These are Anne’s SI shots (not fine those bikini peachy colors… but she’s so beautiful nonetheless):

Adam touched down on UK soil keeping feeling very lovey doveyprobably remembering all the strolls he and Anne did that previous October I mentioned before.

It’s so sweet the way love makes the guy mellow… 😉

Anne instead after the Letterman thing weekend started the celebratory in between New York and Las Vegas about the Sports Illustrated issue reveal; I’m not really sure about first outfit/makeup/hairdo (very 80’s… maybe a bit too much to my taste ;)), but she always manages to look adorable even in the worst kind of mises.

On the other side, her body is just to die for… ALWAYS (look the way her stomach is flat… awesome!)

I found cute beyond words the way Anne hinted at her stay in Las Vegas, because that was where she and Adam first met last year (when Maroon5 were the resident musical guests for SI Swimsuit launch – this year it was Ne-Yo); and as teasingly lovely the way Adam said he would have stayed mum about “details” ;).

The whole event was well covered, and as you saw in the above videos of Anne she also managed to take cooking lessons (awww… those might always be useful girl; also because you’re with a gourmet type of man and although he can cook, it’s never bad to learn how to do it also yourself, so you can kinda… tease him – and yourself – more ;)).

I really like the way Anne seems always upbringing and cheerful.

She’s the definition of a sweetheart, with the perfect look of an elf goddess.

In Uk Land in the maintime lovely Sara Bareilles (best tourmate ever with Maroon5 , because they’re friends from a life and she’s naturally fitting in with the boys) was sharing good vibes as well.

The tour started in Brighton, and then moved on to a stream of Uk dates.

Here it is a compendium video out of first night in London at Brixton Academy:

And after that, take Adam’s sweet whispers along, too (so tender!).

Those hours, some of the concertgoers had the amazing experience of having Adam PHONE CALLING THEM (well, some of their friends or lovers who weren’t actually at the gigs, actually); thing that as you can easily picture drove more than one happily insane.

Aahahhaha.

Click on this link and you will see a video of the phone call 😉 (AWWWW!!!).

If I can ever get that as well not (that I will push to be front row… Karim’s with me and we have kinda of a “good manners” type of deal ;)…) I would make him call Serena.

She’s the one who’s gonna miss both Paris and Milan gigs actually so… it’d be due ;).

Anne V in Los Angeles, February 2011 times

While in break times in London, Adam went actually shopping for clothes in one of the COOLEST (if not THE coolest) place the town can offer, namely Dover Street Market (Comme Des Garçons: whenever Japanese style is, Style RULES)

As the Las Vegas mayhem ended, Anne went flying to Los Angeles.

She’s one her track to become a perfect Cali person as well?

Oh, God knows how I wish it so!

Anyway, she was there for attending All Star Game (and poor Adam really was envying her there… poor baby ;)), and then (actually just by the time this post is being written and posted) the Academy Awards Vanity Fair Party.

Awww she is gonna be so so cute there!!! (and Adam had his Oscar time last year… so this year is fair she will send to him cheering shout-outs, right?)

In the days there (a full on week and counting) she also had Malibu sweet & dorky time, she had more driving testing experience (and all around car maintenance) and also, completely cute, she attended as you read way above the game Lakers played against Clippers, along Gene Hong and N.P. 😉 (the game Karim and I would have attended too, if I weren’t more than only focused on my business these LA quick days ;)).

Maroon 5 in Manchester, 21st February 2011

Think that weather hasn’t exactly been always perfect… but it doesn’t matter: I’m really glad Anne is shaping up to be Cali-obsessed.

It’s the way it has to be.

You know…good  influences ;).

Hopefully the two lovers had ways and time to be in long contact: also because Adam as per usual gets so homesick traveling far away he has the only remedy of keeping his system loaded on PacificStandardTime.

Adam also has a way to deal with touring boredome and that’s video-gaming.

Somehow new portatile phones facilities help him even more there.

Fruit Ninja is apparently a good cure as well, indeed.

Then there is always the ADD stopper by excellence to keep Adam relaxed while on tour… yep… the thing Snoop Dogg gets the most shouting up for… from Adam too, of course ;).

It’s very heart-warmening then to know and realize (as per usual actually) everybody gets ravished at their gigs.

It’s so making me angry (but after so many years of wrong biased reps, I am kinda used to it) how many people realize Maroon5 actually KICK ASS only when they go to their live gigs (where it’s impossible not to get how great they are).

It’s the “pretty boys making pop” kind of misunderstanding impression.

Adam in Kilt in Glasgow, 22 Feb 2011

Because of the way they look, and the way their music sounds, people assume Maroon5 is “just” pop.

Instead Maroon5 is GREAT pop, made by guys who can deliver magic live and who have actually their roots in the indie style of playing, more than any pop field.

But ehy… I know the wrong assumption is so rooted by now people will just change their perspective on them only if they get smart enough to actually catch them live.

I hope this is an option that can be kept going on for a while more.

I’m speaking like this because after their Scottish gig (look in the collage how funny Adam was wearing a kilt… BACKWARDS ;)) a news started spreading up in USA:

Adam and Cee-Lo Green seem to be in talks to become judges for a new singing competition, named The Voice, and produced on NBC (Universal TV partner… and Maroon5 is under Universal).

I HOPE THAT WON’T EVER HAPPEN.

Mostly because that would mean no tour, and I am not the only one thinkin people prefer great artist to tour and not being on tv judging; then I also think there’s no space for more audiences for more singing competitions (American Idol and XFactor are already enough filling); then honestly… unless Adam would plan a year break in case he had to become father or anything related… it’s just wrong for him to land his (undoubtedly awesome) face and expertize to a lame tv show.

I was so loving the impression I used to have he wasn’t fond of singing competition.

I sure hope this is a wrong feed of media.

Then… hasn’t Cee-Lo Green dissed Maroon5 lately?

I don’t really want to see a tv beefing in judging (and I love both Cee-Lo and Adam too much to wish for them to go on tv that way: they have to be on tv for singing THEIR music only.).

I better focus on UNCHARTED VIDEO PREVIEW (click on this)

Then I better share with you pictures of just happened gigs in Luxembourg (coolest state name for Adam… Lux indeed ;)), and keep thinking about boys touring the best way.

I mean… Adam, think twice about tv shows… Andrew WK wouldn’t find it any cool, so that maybe he wouldn’t ever think again you can still “Party Hard“, no matter how you could brag still about it (reversal psychology ;)).

Then take these links and pieces of news about incoming schedules (for Spring and Summer again… so no space for tv shows?) for Maroon5 in Usa, and Caribbean again.

Beside the June show for the Golf tournament, Maroon 5 are set to headline along their Grammy buddies Train the Mid State Fair on July 23:

Maroon 5 and Train for Mid State Fair

Prior to that, and before Maroon 5 will get back to Europe and Asia for keeping on their World Tour (from Istanbul, to Cairo, to Dubai… and all over Asia), the boys are slated to perform on April 12 for Tru Tv special series launch Performances:

This is gonna be cool... 🙂

I think BEFORE this Tru Tv thing (because Istanbul gig is on April 15th, so they got to fly over Mediterranean at least April 14th? Or they could be there by April 13th and then fly from Barbados to Turkey? Who knows ;)), they are going to be part of Breakfast in Barbados event too (and that is overchill and really pleasant scenery, yep):

Breakfast in Barbados 2011 event: click to be informed

So by all counts, I truly truly hope Maroon5 keep being on the road and not really put on hold by any tv show madness.

To me they are a band…

And a band is mostly and ultimately so when it performs live for their fans.

minutes ago... Los Angeles shining from Griffith Park Observatory

That’s why I can’t wait, after we take off to New York in some hours (btw, how cool is to type on iPad from Griffith Observatory and Park?), to fly over to Paris to see them once more…

And then in Milan, once more…

And again in Berlin… once more again.

I hope this chaotic and filled update was worthy the wait.

To be honest I won’t review it much because this weather over LA today is promising and Griffith Park is awesome; we don’t care at all about Oscar Chaos over downtown so we will just taste our hours in a very sexy way.

Oh… we know we’re missing Lakers game with OKC in these moments but… trust me… we are gaining magic nonetheless.

Kobe will forgive us.

Catch you in March.

Bye Bye and be All Up^^^^ ;)!

Miss Z. 🙂

I made it!!!

I was honestly givin up at the idea of properly upload the blog this whole month of December… then I wanted to make it and come… then suddenly I almost gave up again.

Mostly because just when I was about to start writing, my friend Marghe sent me this APPALLING news, that unlike my usual behavior I put up (as a rejecting/coping sort of therapy: after that I will be able to write all that I was meant to, including PRAISE to Maroon5… but this atrocity doesn’t belong to the rest of my post):

REALLY??? REALLY??? That Uk version is a CRIME!!! It's cheap and terribly done... WTH???

Oh dear Lord… who the hell is advising them on these stuff?

Can’t they see how disastrous this is gonna be???

I am a complete fan of comics, cartoon art, being a Japan addicted and all: to me cartoon art has a meaning and a really high dignity but that in the Misery thing is GARBAGE, plain and simple.

Can’t they reckon how the “revamped” SHIT version of UK Misery video was terrible?

And I KNOW, because being the fan I am, even if I totally barfed at it… I BOUGHT IT to stay as a completist towards their stuff!!!, and it almost made me feel GUILTY to watch the fuckery that is:

Worst. Idea. Ever.

I don’t get it… have they collectively developed a disease which mistakes awful for awesome? Are they kidding? (I wish…).

Then… Hands All Over as third single?

REALLY?

I am unable to cope with so much WRONG.

That is a good song, and I really love it, but after a weak performance from Give A Little More, you try HAO, which won’t ever be embraced by any of those who will never think you can do rock, and will be not fully taken by those who love you more on the rnb-popside than the funk-rock one???

*REALLY*???

And to make it even MORE difficult to embrace it, instead of going with a refined classic video (the story of the song would have given tons of chances for it) you betray its spirit and seriousness (and adultness) with a CARTOONED version, that looks like a kid trial at Photoshop???

Who do you think can enjoy that, really???

Can A video be that bad to make me dislike a song I actually LOVE? This video could... AWFUL.

You are not on the road of Pearl Jam great cartoon videos with that, nor that of Queens Of The Stone Age, nor in case 1 nor in case 2, because the style of the video still gross and poorly done, just like it was in Misery’s case.

You’re far away from Linkin Park even, because their cartoonish video have a depth and style that this horrifying trial couldn’t reach in 1000 light years (and I am not even a fan of Linkin Park…).

It’s ages away also from the one you were maybe aiming at, Kanye West’s Heartless… because Kanye has a true dig at graphic stuff and he uses colors and dynamics WAY better than your “director” could dream of in that video (whic I adore).

You’re on the road of the Smurf with that and I can’t really take it lightly, because it embarasses my educated fan conscience like a bad, bad, bad – and unsexy – slap on the face.

What is it… an Harakiri process? A test to see how strong can you try and be stretching things? A forcedly violent farewell???

Oh, boy… Luckily Karim sculpts and I can distract myself.

But it’s hard: this horrible news shocks me and it’s a bad surprise after what they tweeted, which I was hoping was a great video idea for Stutter.

I am disappointed… and it hurts, coming from them: I feel a bit empty at the moment if I think of this all.

You know how much I love every track of HAO… what I think of each one… you know I love the title track (read it here if any): but really this video can be capable or culpable of makin me DISLIKE the song even.

Grrrrr. This “director” is on my DARKER list: terrible, terrible and terrible: it looks beyond patched up and cheap. EWWWW.

I still love your flair... but that HAO thing HURT, Levine...

Then I thought this shouldn’t prevent me from update finally the blog.

Awww... such a beauty!

Because I have TONS of amazing material to share (you’ll see later, and as per usual random pics are of Adam and Anne from my pretty much infinite collection ;)… this because BEAUTY RULES MY LIFE and they’re a pretty darn fine form of it, which leads to me have pleasure watchin them > which is what this blog is all about: THINGS THAT PLEASE ME ;)) and I love to write bites of my life here, for  the pure sake of it (mostly for my foreign friends who can know that way… and this makes my mail exchange virtually VERY MUCH easier ;)), and if I won’t write about it down now I won’t anymore so I just really had to face the reality.

No matter that hurtingly bad surprise… I gotta write what I planned to today.

When I left you on the verge of watching the amazing Lady Gaga gig (really awesome, she’s a great performer/entertainer!) dressed aptly for the event I must say (too bad I lost my tricot hat there and never found it back…), and I would never have thought I would have written down some words again ONLY by now.

Lady Gaga gig (from my plixis from twitter)

I was looking forward to update you about the awesome (help me say it… JUST FANTASTIC and also with proper deeper contents provided by Director…) Première at La Scala, but things just got way too much in to even attempt it now.

DECEMBER IS LIKE AUGUST FOR ME… (just way, way more … “crowded“).

Not even gonna try to put in words how gorgeous he is. WOW.

I don’t have time at all to write… even willing it, I just have tons of dinners/meetings/events to attend and/or prepare and/or organize and then, you know me, it’s not like I belong to Internet.

If I can come through it, fine… if I can’t… FINER.

I love Christmas dearly, you know… all the traditional stuff are mine in the core… and also the kitch-est parts 🙂

These days I have been so completely taken I had also to give up to write in the Lakers Blog (and there you could realize how much it’s REALLY impossible for me to write anywhere, when I can’t make it writing in there!).

I managed to read also because of the iPad/iPhone help on that, but really, there’s not a chance in the world I can have half an hour spare to write anywhere before… you know, before 7th of January I guess ;).

And you know me: I write there very seriously, so I would never step in just to say “heya”.

😉

This is the only post you will get before the 2011 comes (I am sure you saw that coming after this intro, right?)… so it encompasses my wishes for Xmas and my best wishes for a very Happy and Rockin End+Start of the Year.

I had an amazing 2010.

Found this one from one of my Italian Fashion Magazines: Anne in all her glory 😉

An year fulfilled with all the possible magic a soul can ask or dream for.

And in 2011…

Well, in 2011 I marry so I expect even more 😉

Tomorrow morning Karim parents arrive (yep, they couldn’t make it sooner than that… but no worries.. they stay until Karim and I leave for our amazing time ALONE for New Year’s Eve in Montecarlo and Nice, so we have time for Family after all), and today I finally completed the Xmas gift bringin to all friends.

Sure, these weeks I have been wandering through parties but to my special crew members, that wasn’t the proper way to exchange OUR gifts (Marghe thought the same which is why yesterday she hosted a ROCKIN Xmas party, which was absolutely wonderful at any rate ;)).

We visited those who couldn’t make it to the mountains last weekend (amazing weather and time… truly special… TRULY. If you read my Twitter – and you SHOULD… ehi!!! I’m nearly at 1500 followers and counting, ya’ll ;)! lol!- you know what I am talkin about ;)) and just landed them a very special thing to let them know how much we treasure them.

Oh… yeah… I wrote “we”.

Right now it comes so natural from my heart & mind to think of me as a double entity, or as a half of an unit… this is the way Karim has completed his miracle on me.

oh, that tongue...

What a wonderful feeling is the one of belonging.

Yeah.

This even if I still love threesomes and I am dirty and kinky… I belong.

To him.

Who loves me also because I am exactly like that 😉 and I never feel ashamed of it 😉 (why should I… I rock, me ;)!).

On these festivities I look forward to my adorable grandmother to teach Karim’s one (yep, she comes along) on how to prepare tortellini.

If you follow me on Twitter, you will see properly what I mean 😉

While we are on Xmas hints, know that my song for Xmas (beside as usual the awesome cover the guys did of  John Lennon, of course, song which I created the video for in 2008, but stupid YouTube took it down… no problem, I reposted it in Yahoo videos… ;)) is Coldplay’s Christmas Lights 🙂

Lovely, Sexy Anne with her natural do

The Lovely Four (to not be mistaken with the Lovely Five, of course) have started shakin off the rust before incoming year roading with this awesome song and its adorable video and I am in love as per usual, of course.

I also like Train’s song and Pink‘s Raise Your Glass, and The Killers Xmas Single… but in the end you know those two above songs are the only ones in my book these days of happiness.

Ah! 😉

I really wish to you all a wonderful Xmas time with your family and friends and everyone you love, being near to you and make your hours shine.

Then I wish you all to do a tenth of the sex I will…

Trust me it’d be enough for a magic orgasmic overdose (so make your calculations… lol!)

Oh… yeah… sadly our Country still under Berlusconi: I try to forget it everyday to start with a smile… but then… nightmare comes back.

SIGH.

Now let’s have a little end of the year SPORTY RECAP (sort of… but mostly because I let ages of games pass by with my no -update span… LOL ;))

Okay… As I said, the sporty season so far sees Milan still lead Serie A no matter the latest demise (but ehi… cousins feel way worse don’t they?)

I’m really lukewarm and kinda appalled about us acquiring Cassano (WTF was actually my proper reaction to the news… ewwww) but what can I do.

At the end of the day, I support Milan no matter what (and the main no matter what is actually FORGETTING who the team belongs to… If you wait for me to comment on Berlusconi’s shame which keeps going on… I am trying to part myself from that because otherwise I’d die of inner pain and struggle. While you know… the only one who should die… yeah, YOU GET IT. YOU DO. *sigh*…)

lakers time is always right

About the Lakers.

Wow… there is much to say… I still feel twisted about us… there’s something missing in the puzzle but I have restraint in naming it.

Now Bynum‘s back and that’s a very good thing; but Pau still look strangely averted from games… Lamar has really flourished, and Shannon and the bench Killer B’s are a plus… Kobe still Kobe of course, but somehow he seems working like a very very slow Diesel Engine yet (still amazing, even so).

I write just hours prior of the Xmas Game which should see us prevail after last year shame… but I don’t know what to expect.

Meat are on the rise (hyped rise, still on it) and we SURELY are a better team but we have to prove it and we know in this moment we aren’t in a great shape (it’s not now that counts, but we need it now to win against a team on the rise, don’t we?)

I will update about the results of the Xmas game after the New Year steps in, all I wanna say is now and forever:

GOOOOOO LAKERS!!!!!!!!!

We Are The Best Team/Franchise On Planet Earth (and Milky Way Galaxy… 😉 ) and I am a PROUD Purple&Gold Freak.

His Hotness in His Shine

Right.

Now roll in for recaps of all the games played in the span of time where I did not update the blog.

Let’s get backwards till December 3, for the home game against Sac Town, that we won (well… winning against the Kings is not exactly shocking but that moment we were rolling in a deep struggle so… better we brought it home!)

A few days after, it was again a home game against this time the Washington Wizards: another win for a less than perfect Lakers team, but a win is a win is a win, of course.

The day after, December 8th, we were starting our road trip, except that we were still at Staples Center, being guests of the Clippers. We won, but really just thanx to a magic Fish play, and I have to say finally Clippers have a great player to watch.

That win… rang some bell just like a loss, too.

Her Hotness in Her Shine 😉

We hadn’t to wait much for a proper loss though… as soon as the proper road trip started in Chicago on December 10th, Bulls bullied us enough to make us have another scar on our skin in this less than pleasant phase of the regular season.

I could feel Kobe’s anger and rage by miles then…

And the rest of the five team we faced on the road had to, because after that game we won against the New Jersey Nets, then again against the Washington Wizards, which signed last moments of Sasha Vujacic as a Laker, as he’s now a Farmar’s joiner with the Nets exactly (note: I predicted MONTHS ago Maria Sharapova would have allowed him to move ONLY to Nets or New York…See? I just KNOW ;)) subsequently we rode Indiana Pacers and also poor Philadelphia Sixers, before wrapping it up in Toronto against the Raptors (minus an absent and injured Bargnani).

The road trips are never easy for the Lakers…

And this year in particular… we had to be tested way beyond the mere responsive tests on the floor.

There’s something more going on with us… and hopefully the final output of all this will be cheering us. The right way, I mean.

An appalled Adam watches Lakers demise against the Bucks, 21 december 2010 (Anne is lovely though, at leat ;)...)

First game home after the run has then been, just hours ago, pre-Christmas one against the Bucks, that could have led at least to lovely courtside watchin, right?

Yes, because of course ASquared went there attending (they had spent day searching for sunglasses… you’ll see later on. Shopping before Caribbean gigs? I bet ;)).

And just like it has already happened… it’s not exactly like Lakers helped their evening at ALL.

At least I hope they again fought the bitter taste the game left with lots, and I mean LOTS of Good Old Sexual Healing because the game was a TRAGEDY.

Obscene.

A constant craving for all that is wrong…

Kobe even got EJECTED for a tech foul (he basically fucked off the referee…)

Really… it’s a pain to depict how bad it was so I better let images speak themselves.

Yep.

This game at least, being the latest one, has the pleasurable worthy (not really, it’s more like a nightmare before Xmas without the grace of Tim Burton…) plus of an encompassed video directly here (while the previouses have the LINK to the video, as you saw):

Although for instance Adam has a different view on it... I just can’t really feel like we lost this neither due to referees (they were bad, but they always are) nor because we were focusing on the Heat already.

It was not referees fault if we did play painfully, dear lovely Seraphine.

Adam at Staples Center, hours ago.

There’s something wrong with us in this moment and it is that wrong from a while.

Pau isn’t really himself… and the way Kobe reacted tells me he feels deeper that this untangible (or maybe very tangible) malaise that we’re having is way more mattering than we’d like it to be.

I am really (albeit JUST a BIT) worried…

No… not about the Heat or anyone else.

As I always say, it’s all and always and ONLY about us.

If we deliver, there is no space to win for NOBODY, because we’re by far the best team.

But the point is that: it’s OUR fault this situation because we’re NOT delivering at all, not even by percentage.

I feel this year everyone thinks that just because we’re used to do it, we can rely again on the “switch on/off” factor, even worse, that we can do it even better and with less effort, just because our roster has actually improved (and it has).

Well… WAKE UP CALL my Purple&Gold Knights: the switchin works only through bleed /sweating, not by divine imposition.

Kobe Bryant reacts to referee in Lakers vs Bucks game: he'll get ejected.

Our complacency is like a bad cancer this year so far and in no way leaves me quiet nor serene.

Of course yeah, I STILL BELIEVE.

I will always believe.

But it’s in OUR camp.

If we fail… WE DO.

Technically others would beat us but the awful truth it’d be that WE DID NOT DO OUR BEST.

And this would make my Lakers Heart severely wounded.

So raise up.

Do it.

I'd like to be all of his stage gear: micstand, guitar, microphone... *whatevs* 😉

Lotta love, Z&K (who just had the best sexual healing today, staying naked home alone all day… because this is what you do your only free day of Xmas time before relatives stick into the picture, right?)

And here we are.

As per usual, Lakers introduce us to some music time, quite aptly, since the courtside connection just depicted.

I have updated the bites of Coldplay up above, (awwwwwwww… can’t wait can’t wait can’t wait to hear Chris live soon again… I’ll love their 2011 I know already… *sweet child of mine* ;)) in my life chronicles because as per usual the Maroon5 stuff is gonna have so many videos and as I anticipated a lil Xmas candy Plus that to interfere with it with whatever else, no matter how great, would be unfair 😉

As I said, it’s Xmas post and Happy New Year post so I have decided to put up a couple of gifts you find with difficulty elsewhere ( I treated them so at least is not a stealing of too great material).

Let’s say that we left lovely Maroon 5 and ASquared at the start of the month, right?

I was saying November seemed to have treated them right, but you will see how December did as well.

They’re just so darn cute and adorable together… (yes, I write it about 100000 times a update… what can I do… it’s how I feel ;))

My good Goodies Time start with this small piece of Interview, which is peculiar only for the fact Adam did record it JUST AFTER THAT FAMOUS NAKED Photoshot (that we can’t wait to see in spread right?):

Oh… the beauty… 😉

Guys also updated us with the third installment of the Palm Trees&Power Lines series (I forgot to create the mpeg video because I receive it through the iPhone / iPad app of Maroon5, so you take it from their Youtube… 😉 Sorry ;)) :

What I start with is the December issue of Los Angeles Magazine, because Adam’s one of the 50 Los Angelenos D.O.C. interviewed about the town:

The scanning of Adam Levine's interview in the Los Angeles Magazine, Dec 2010 Issue

Yeah… I know… it’s a really awful scanning but I did it for actual copyright purpose.

Adam on December 3rd, 2010 - Miracle On State Street, Chi-town 😉

Do as me: BUY it 😉 After all all my hints here are up for makin you people BUY THE DARN THING (a fan should?) after I give out suggestions.

My physical copy reached me thanx to Mash (you rock man); but before it I also bought a digital copy (well, I ad to subscribe for a year, but after all the magazine is lovely AND I have a house in LA, so it’s gonna be useful after all ;)).

I am also awaiting for the number of Guitar Magazine with James on it (found in Mondadori Milan, but it was a damaged copy so they’re changin it), because I am a completist about them FULLY of course ;).

So, get ready now…

Recap days trip in notes and visual is about to start properly and believe you’re gonna LOVE IT a lot.

A whole lotta…

… *love* 😉

If you wonder, December has been very freezy not only in Italy, but in USA too.

Evidence in Adam’s reactions to his traveling outdoors facings 😉

On December 3 guys were back in Chicago for The Miracle on State Street annual event play, while Anne was instead enjoying elsewhere a very intense massage (lol… her descriptions are so graphic and adorable…) 😉 beside being logically very excited for another minor thing ;):

Gal's shining right?

She’s so incredibly cute (and actually very humble, which doubles the cuteness) ;).

No need to point out that the most proud boyfriend EVER did not waste time to bless his wonderful half, and so there you go, get ready to melt again (I do every time they show affection towards one another… gosh I’m such a sucker for them… I know it’s absurd and ridiculous from my side but I have developed this straight and straight about them I thought “let them stay together forever because perfect beauty and skill should match always ONLY another perfect beauty and skill”… and surely they fit the profile of my preferences, don’t they?):

Isn't he absolutely adorable once again? Oh, the power of love 😉

Awwww: I just can’t cope with so much love (I lie… I sure can… and I do adore it ;)).

Anyway, guys were at Miracle On State Street and this is some of what did happen:

I could witness their live gigs about for an eternity.

Hewl… yeah. 😉

While guys were around to play, Anne was in New York and really really excited to decorate her Xmas tree.

She truly loves it and showed it several times… updating us through her twitter multiple times (including the sweet proper pictures. I mostly love the way she’s always so down to earth and sunny in her mood. So enchanting, really).

Another one of her plus, I never get bored in tellin it, is her skill for comedy (much like her boyfriend… also there they look so much like a perfect match ;)): her talkin iPhone friends are growing and allegedly they’re getting kind of spelling lessons that are shocking EVEN to Adam (and that says pretty much all, being Adam cussing Prince… lmao!)

While Maroon5 were actually performing in Chicago, CMT (Country Channel) broadcasted the Artist Of The Year Event that you know about from the previous post (because it was performed days before).

Adam Levine gets cheered by Taylor Swift at CMTAOTYA- 1

Yeah… I know…

They covered FRIGGIN Taylor Swift.

Oh, man.

Now don’t get me wrong: I find the girl REALLY cute (she’s sleek and stylish and looks like a model which is a plus for me); she writes her stuff and although she really can’t sing live she has some flair.

It’s just that I really really REALLY can’t stand hype and I completely HATE fakeness and she seems a master in BOTH.

Sure it’s a sign of brain… but I can’t value what I despise… therefore although Mine rendition from the boys was AWESOME and brought the kinda flat song to whole new heights, I couldn’t stand the “OMFGAWWWD” constant expression Taylor was obnoxiously acting the whole time they performed it.

I am sure she loved it all GENUINELY.

But I still can’t reckon any ounce of genuineness in her, which is a set off.

Then you know… Country and I don’t match.

Anyway, THIS IS THE WHOLE SHOW.

Enjoy:

And now, let me serve you with a Xmas Candy.

Being now in sorta “Country” territory, I bring up for your enjoyment a WONDERFUL Country (and CMT) related old piece from start of 2008, when Adam and Maroon5 did a Crossroads Episode with Country Lady Sara Evans.

IWBSBL times. Those of the Crossroads thingie, too 😉

I have ALWAYS loved everything about that episode.

First, Adam’s look in that period was turning me on like Fire on Dried Bushes (insert all tongue in cheeks you like), at an even higher rate than he normally does – and which is already like the maximum human can take – : it’s like in Goodnight Goodnight video (which is my fav ever of their videos), but with his face actually shaved.

I ADORE him that way… the head shaved that lenght makes me wanna hold his head and caress it… caress it… till putting nails in it almost and Holy Sky… his perfect facial cheekboned outlines are just shining with that look, in a stunning way.

The best you get from his flawless, noble face gets so emphasized that way it’s unreal .

Okay…

Flawless Anne V.

I’ll stop (you know man turns me on… ;))… but it’s hard ;).

Anyway I love the whole of the sung parts of the show (also the extra on Wake Up Call).

There’s so much of Mr. Levine there, in such a short amount of time, it’s properly mindblowing 😉

I love to pieces the interviews parts, where he said that famous “I won’t do this forever” thing (and he said it right: if you wanna have a serious family, you can’t be all over the world. He just shows once again how smart and great he is. He won’t leave music cos music is HIM… but sure willing to have a real family, he will soon or later stop being what he is now, to be some other kind of musically engaged and devoted man, still. I love his mind and heart there even more, because he just gets so real there, and he’s so totally himself…).

Then there are two pluses: the face he makes when Sara Evans says to him she is the mother of three (and you see so clearly the “damn… I want to bang you… and now how? Oh… let’s see anyway” – kinda look… ;)), and then the completely AMAZING impersonation he does of Fabio (the regrettable Model For Sexless Middle-Aged Ladies Peeps).

HILARIOUS.

Adam is pure genius, always (the lovely ode to James’ hair desrves mentions too ;)).

So…

THIS IS THE COUNTRY I LOVED MAROON5 IN.

Enjoy (for real: editing is mine and thank you Meli for the pre-edit work ;)):

*in love* 😉

Okay, let’s get back on track now, after this lovely break in that exiles from the calendar we follow 😉

After the Chicago thing, and not before serving Mr Tellez (Adam’s assistant) a certain intense post gig threat (lol) guys moved to Buffalo for the KissMas Bash, on December 4th, and of course I can provide you some from there as well.

Enjoy a link to a Charice snippet involving them (click over), and then an interview:

and then a snippet of their gig, too (awww) :

In the freezy town is anyone surprised Adam actually searched for an EATERY?

How he remains so miraculously skinny is a wonder to me… and after all he candidly confessed the only way he really loves to use his fame is the chance to reserve in restaurantsbecause I love to eat.

WUC still frame. Drool freely. 😉

I fear in time of hunger he could easily eat me (no okay… that risks to start a whole lotta of NOT ALLOWED thoughts… I better come with another metaphor…) up ;).

At least he isn’t the only one enjoying his passion wherever he goes: James for instance had more tennis time also in Buffalo, too: *ACE*!! 😉

As models live with a suitcase ready, Anne in the maintime was already bound to leave her greatly put up real tree, heading to (again frosty place) Paris.

Adam and the boys instead could move back for 48 of rest in Los Angeles, which was more than cherished by them all of course; oh, and someway Adam managed to remind us all that he still have troubles in dealing with airplanes so constantly… ;).

His first eating stop back in LA?

Italian Place, Dan Tana’s.

Of Course. Then a check of the Green Hornes at The Trobadour.

Once again… all about  friendly happy times and we all know how much he treasures those ;).

As the lovers were flying away in opposite directions (awww… both their jobs are a bless, aren’t they?), something actually flew the RIGHT direction to me: I’m speakin about the awesome BOOK and Movie of Andrew Zuckerman, MUSIC.

Man that is just ASTONISHINGLY AMAZING material.

I won’t share copyrighted stuff (just like it happens with all related with Vevey Forever) but I post a collage of things because if you are a music lover, beside being a Maroon5 fan, man you GOTTA own this.

It’s really awesome:

Music: by Andrew Zuckerman. JUST BUY IT. REALLY. A+++++

Word.

Probably I was too excited about the book then because when Anne in Paris asked for a tip for something to do, I adviced her about something she had DONE already when she actually was in Paris for the Fashion Week back in Fall (and I remembered it clearly as soon as she actually told me. Still, she always manage to be simply adorable and graceful in anything she says, so after all it was okay. I am dumb, but she’s lovely, and always ready to shout out good positive vibes, in a very inspiring way ;))

On a “good vibe note”, you will probably be happy to know that Ryan Murphy (Glee mastermind and creator) has confirmed to Rolling Stones that Misery will be in the spring renditions.

I didn’t know Murphy and Adam were mates; but this of course doesn’t surprise me after all:

So, Misery will be on Glee. I like that. 😉

COOOOOOOL. 😉

After the two (well, one and half) spare days in Los Angeles, before jetting off again, Maroon 5 recorded On  what people will actually see TONIGHT, December 22 on CBS (you will see it on these pages with the next update… of course), namely A Home For The Holidays 12th Special for the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption.

A Home For The Holidays - rehearsal

It’s gonna be a lovely lovely performance and so far you can enjoy at least a couple of pictures (awwww, red is not only Anne’s color, but also Adam’s ;)!) and also some twitpics they sent from rehearsal, too.

A Home for the Holidays 2010 - 1

It’s always amazing when their art matches their hearts, ain’t it?

A Home For The Holidays 2010 - 2

After that Adam *graciously* (no 😉 but he still so cute when he “dork-izes” up ;)) let us see what his boundaries are when it comes to the concept of… dirty.

Dirty SHOES, that’s it 😉 (you wish… lol!).

Nothing groundbreakin there, if it weren’t that he was actually bound to… erm… LAND AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

For serenading Obama and the Family during the lightning of their Xmas Tree (the day after…).

Quite aptly, 9th of December is the date of Lennon’s death so the song they chose was PERFECT to perform, with amazing pluses on that made Adam go awing.

Divine Seraphine... and a regrettable look at the White House 😉

And those were JUST the things happening on the 8th!!!

*sigh*… THESE are the boys that I love… not that awful thing at the start of this post (I can’t cope still… I will heal… in some more hours/days… but now it’s a bullet in my head); all skillful and sparkling talent

There was a bunch of hours for Anne to reach back for the event… but while in Paris she managed to be again very very sweet and cute (California Gurl in pectore… of course!), but then she RUSHED to where she belongs, namely aside the sweetest of man with the sweetest of voices (okay, the White House occurrency was fine on its own, let’s admit it ;)…).

The morning of her man started still awing at the people singing along to him (awww… cute!), which included also lovely Sara Bareilles, one of the FAMILY ;).

Hard not to agree with Bones Mastermind Hart Hanson on the fact 9th of December 2010 of Adam was better than everyone’s average… 😉

Hard also not to agree with Anne’s enthusiastic approach to reaching the White House… 😉

She was also enjoying Santa at The White House (sounds like a Will Farrell movie title… ;)) and she was amazingly joyous in updating us about that and everything else she did experience that day: I love her way with words… :).

Just like the boys, of course 🙂

Adam seemed particularly impressed with the kid winner of XFactor (the one that beat Susan Boyle in the UK), and of course he loved to meet those other three he mentions you know… Obama, BB, Michelle… 😉

So, this is a collage (yep, that’s BB King… ;))

Maroon 5 at the White House. 9 December 2010 😉

The performances were amazing…

So now… enjoy the whole show and get festive (this is the apt post, isn’t it?):

Okay… as the gig finished, the guys moved straight up to New York, as the day after they had to perform on Jimmy Fallon.

This you see here is not a homeless riding on a fast train… is actually Adam with all of his bandmates and his fiancé gear to keep him warm (it’s a messy pic, but at the same time so cute… :)):

I wonder what did Anne wear, as her furry vest-coat is on Adam? 😉

As her man was finding solace in some nap, she had time to verbalize her emotions regarding her rushing to DC (and believe, 8 hours flight from Paris just to spend a bunch of hours there and then get straight back to NY ain’t a joke…I travel and I know what I ma talkin about! That’s love ;)), expressing joy and pride and mostly grace (as she usually does).

Maroon 5 on Fallon Live

The day of Jimmy Fallon Show was a great experience for everyone: for Adam, for Questlove, for Jimmy Fallon, for any famous attendant, for the crew… basically it was a great amazing time and you sure see a lot in the video I will post but NOT ALL OF HOW GREAT IT ACTUALLY was, because some of the best was behind scenes.

There is also the moment of Dee Snider’s controversy which wasn’t that controversial: Dee got rebuked by his wife and his son for havin behaved dully, then apologized himself to Adam, praised him (but not his band), and got the usual AWESOME ANSWER by Adam himself on the whole thing.

Man is so full of virtues.

He can handle stuff with class effortlessly.

He also probably really like Dee Snider actually.

Anyway, this is the show, enjoy:

After the taping, Anne and Adam enjoyed New York City nightlife.

First evening they went to Adam’s fav Standard top (the former Boom Boom Room); while during the day after, Adam bought a new jacket because they went also to the premiere of The Fighter (awesome movie?), looking just HOT.

AdamLevineAnneVTheFighterNY

Because well, there’s not really any other way they could look 😉

One more from the premiere

Right?

😉

The day after the time together it was again time to say farewell for the two lovebirds, because Adam and Maroon 5 had to move to Florida, to rockin out Tampa first (the day after it’d be Orlando).

Adam didn’t miss chances to quote one of his fav movies while moving towards his destination…

white fits Florida 😉

Both towns were unnaturally cold (unnaturally being that Florida you know), and Adam you know is sensitive to chill

Anyway check both some Tampa Goodies (from links this times… you’ll forgive me? Pics!!! Forgive? Right ;))

And also some Orlando ones.

About Orlando I had to discover an irking thing: Adam befriends Mike Posner, namely the worst JT copycat ever (and I don’t even like JT… MEH. MEH. MEH. I won’t like this… I know.)

What was Anne doing while she was in New York still?

SHE HAD A PHOTOSHOT FOR VICTORIA’S SECRET: can’t wait to see it 😉

Post Florida, it was well due time for some Xmas Holiday time so Maroon 5 got back to Los Angeles (PJ has become father again and he missed the Florida times… he will be back in the Caribbean ones and Anne – who had a long writing cards moment earlier that day – was so cute to ask while complimenting and congratulating him on his beautiful newborn… awww… feeling maternal sweet Fairy? That’d be SO awesome!!!).

Anne V: Sports Illustrated BodyPaint (STUNNING)

Adam used first night home to visit Trousdale along good friends (though there was a bit of a hissy fissy moment inside, leading to a pouring out caught by cameras), and enjoyed straight some familiar time (although well… you know Hollywood nights can be rockin in many ways… sometimes TOO MANY ways ;)).

He didn’t have to endure solitude much longer, because his half flew rapidly by his side, as expected and as it’s fair to be (collective AWWWWWW thank you ;)) because who could be parted from him too long?

Even Frankie gets depressed when he’s away

Anne had a première moment by herself in New York the night before flying into Adam’s arms (look, she’s STUNNING, as a gooddess…!!!) at the Little Fockers Premiere (less marv movie than the Fighter though).

BEFORE WE GET INTO LOVERS MODE, please take note of this awesome Photography Contest Maroon5 have up to talented people to enjoy: PRESS AND read and you won’t regret it.

So… Can we guess from Adam’s tweet that new driver Anne could get a Prius for Xmas?

Who knows 😉 Certainly the lovebirds found a way to deal with some really BAD Los Angeles weather (LA is under the biggest floodings in elephant memory… is it raining from a week… but that ain’t affected them, because beside a small note of the obvious, they wandered hand in hand… and tongue on tongue everywhere around Hollywood and Beverly Hills.)

Adam Levine and Anne Vyalitsyna in Beverly Hills, 18 december 2010

Anne even made it to a further photoshot sesh (oh… can’t wait to see this either!!!), before dedicating herself only to the one she gotta take perfect care of (lucky, lucky, lucky gal… ;))

Singing In The Rain? Burt Bacharach? Awww 🙂

Karim made a great portrait of the two angels kissing…

They are so incredibly beautiful and perfect together... ❤

They went shopping and Adam noted he likes to play Jewish Santa (lol), and that after all there’s no point in having if you won’t sharing.

I so agree.

Before I forget, taken in all this lovey bliss… Maroon5 have been chosen for The Critics Choice Awards, and it means on January 12 they will tape it for VH1:

YES!!!

Adam also shot a Funny Or Die video that we hope to see soon… and there, his alter ego is this fella… BRODY (lmao…), allegedly at Bardot? That’s the place he goes at on that day but until we see it we can’t know for sure 😉

Prepare to enjoy the last collages that come from hours ago: what they did prior to the Lakers Shame that you know from above.

Remember, in a bunch of hours there is the broadcast of a Home For The Holidays on CBS.

And now… enjoy Beauty and Love.

Adam Levine and Anne V: love is in the air, Dec 21, 2010 - 1

I’ll try to forgive you for that AWFUL Hands All Over Video, Adam…

I know in the end you and your voice win anyway: darn ;).

Adam Levine and Anne V: love is in the air, Dec 21, 2010 - 2

how could somebody hate on you, so shining…?

Hope you and the guys have a blast these days, and look forward to meet you several times in Feb/March.

Then the game of shame… but they are so beautiful, even the awfulness at Staples gets cleared by their shine:

And maybe in Fall, too ;).

Have all a great Xmas time and a super amazing End of The Year and Start of The Year.

Catch you in 2011: the year of me becoming a wife in Japan.

W-O-W.

😉

Kisses, Z. :O)
