Hey there world ;)!

Karim took this at the airport while we were waiting to fly to Paris for Thanksgiving.
I love it.
So it’s my new twitter icon 😉

Okay okay it’s not technically December yet…

But here I am again writing, even tho I said I wouldn’t have this soon after two near posts last times…

Ehi… it’s ALMOST December anyway right? 😉

And then I needed to update posts with my new profile picture (that in itself it’s a rare and worthy event right?… ;)), and write some stuff before the December season strikes in and I won’t have as much as free time because to do all things that I am supposed to in December I’d just need a day of at least 30 hours (multiplied for 31, of course. December kills me. I love it. But it does kill me…).

So before this afternoon post work we leave towards Val Gardena and before the week after it’s the HUGE La Scala time weekend (does it makes sense or?) I thought this was the only space (of time mostly) allowed to some blog update (which means the rest will come around Xmas, so if you want to see full broadcasts of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, Hawaii 5-0 and The Grammy Nomination Concert + other stuff before it, you better address yourself to the NAWAAL Pages, because there I will upload things before next update.

I think.

It’s not like I have to oblige to do that, but upload stuff it’s way easier and faster than write around the uploads ;).

Obviously).

So while today I seem to be having a very quiet day at work (after an insane Post-Paris Thanksgiving week) I can customize a decent post now, in pieces, as breaks allow.

And I have a few things to trace 😉 so it’s going to be cute.

For me 😉

Barack! YES!

As you should have learned about by now, I write here only for my own pleasure anyway 😉 so you stay here at your discretion BUT as absolutely irrelevant entities for me ;).

DEAL.

Let’s just start with one thing that you know I strongly care for… and which made me fear a lot in our past post:

Barack is STILL the President of The United States!!!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

(and pheeeeeeeeewwwwwwww!!!!) 😉 too 😉

I am so inspired by this man, and so happy everything went in the right direction…

The other option was equaling war and hate and demise for the world for me so you know how I feel there.

I just couldn’t fathom the reality of a world ruled in ANY frigging way by a combo “Romney/An Idiot Racist VP”.

But all went fine, so let’s just forget our scare.

Let’s dwell into Barack’s greatness by memorizing (I did) his coronation speech:

His passion for his Country is so gushingly clear and true… and I am glad also people I care of were as enthusiastic as I was about Obama’s win 😉

How I wish in Italy we had anything (anyone) even remotely similar…

Instead we have Berlusconi ready again to compete for Prime Minister role (God help us and possibly make this one trick pony DIE. I mean in every sense you can imagine we are in need of. Naturally of course… he’s old enough for it isn’t he?), and the Right here again being ridiculed by this midget whose only interest is to FUCK this Country while fucking prostitutes and then avoid any real political project to take off, but instead minding only his own ways to stay out of where he belongs, namely JAIL.

Poor my Italy (if as I presume there will still be retarded believing this one is what we need)…

And on inside the fence’s side of mine… Renzi and Bersani are up to their final face off after their debate the other day, and after the first round of voting about The Left candidate has been done (click on aside for the full video, here it’s just an excerpt of it):

I wish we could mix the two… but instead we have to part them and I honestly still don’t know whom I am about to pick on Sunday.

Nut. A rockstar cat. King of our house now 😉

Sigh.

Speaking about doubts, choices and people who could/should/must have been picked…

DOUBLE SIGH.

Lakers did me so wrong a few weeks ago.

SO wrong.

They let me hope and climbing the tree of happiness, when they finally SACKED MIKE THE DISGRACE BROWN (and you know how long I was asking for this to happen) and they seemed to be getting back THE ONE AND ONLY PHIL JACKSON

Only to destroy me again, and hiring Mike D’Antoni instead.

Why?

I repeat… why?

That was SO disrespectful to Legendary PJax… I can’t believe how bad we treated him… I can’t 😦 .

I am a huge Olimpia Milano fan and I love Mike D.A. to death but… no way he is fitting for this hard job.

And results are still proving me right once again…

Do I have to surrender at hope of a great sporty season already?

Paris Thanksgiving Time…

Because my teams are so bipolar…

Milan is there to pull and push me up and then shoving me down… We get humiliated by Inter, we struggle in Champions, then we play well in the Cup, and we beat a super Juventus...

what I have to do to keep track?

I am getting old and I don’t feel secure sometimes with all these rollercoaster of feelings, teams.

So please… get it together and help my sanity.

Love, your devoted Zaira 😉

*end of the sporty pledge* 😉

But ehi… I know I have such a great time on my journey onto this planet I shall not really worry (much less complain) about anything.

Just this past week I have gotten to celebrate the most family-oriented of American’s holidays in the most European of towns (and in the most hybrid of ways, give the people involved).

We went to Paris with all of our families and we just had the greatest of times for the Thanksgiving long weekend.

Not only that town is magic for K&I, but we also got to spend some unforgettable time at a party which was held… practically AT the Louvre.

That was simply awesome.

One of the best nights of my whole life, truth to be told.

… winning 😉

I am very grateful for my husband, my family, my friends and relatives; my Swifty, and all of those treasures my existence is made of.

I hope all the people whom I love and treasure are knowing it.

I always try to let them know anyway, because it’s the right thing to do.

Know I never take ANY of this for granted you guys…

And now, I can also say I have a new love in my life… because Karim surprised me with another pet.

Not quite as big as Swifty, but trust me… he might be just as fast 😉

We have a gorgeous all-white cat now, with eyes of gold sparkles.

We’ve baptized him Nut.

No, it doesn’t mean that he’s crazy (though… maybe… ;)): that is the name of a tool people use while climbing rocks, peaks, mountains and since he’s all white as eternal snow on the Alps… there came the name 😉

I am quite scared about the moment when I will be donning the Xmas tree (s) in the house, because Nut will probably tackle them down.

Gotta find a smart solution for his proclivity towards mess.

But he’s just SO cute, and you know I just can’t be mad when beauty is involved 😉

And speaking of Xmas, gifts and engaging activities related to all that, I have started to think at gifts but all that I have come up with so far are purchasing for our houses (… 😉 ops!).

We just found the best chairs for the tavern… tell me these are not amazing (it’s actual fabrics INTO a structure of wood and laminated plexiglas):

Our new set of amazing chairs. Cheers 😉

What else of mine?

I guess if I don’t get over inspired later on, I can move onwards and start The Chronicles of Life & Love (which I love).

Fine?

😉

Well, after Behati and Adam had their love Time fest which lasted like… 2 days into The Victoria’s Secret Fashion show taping (that is dedication, girl… GO!!! Your amazing Halloween costume still an highlight in HW Forever Cemetery, be sure!), she had to fly to New York and he kept being busy with the Karaoke Mess his Tv duties  (sigh), his stuff with Maroon 5 (guys are doing awesomely!!!) and enjoying generally everything that comes when you are as famous as Adam is.

Behati got also into acting, much like Adam, being the one chosen to appear the day before VSFS 2012 will air (in a few days)to cross-star in Hawaii 5-0 remake (more on that later on ;)).

Oh, and if you think I forgot about AHS, just because Adam isn’t featured anymore (so far), you are WRONG.

I still hooked on the Asylum and I love it better than the Damned Ghostly House 😉 I am also sure the physical resemblance of Zachary Quinto, Dylan McDermott and Adam is not a casual occurrence. I am sure this is planned 😉

Quote me later on 😉

Well Behati went to New York to do her thing, and as always she just ROCKED it.

I mashed up a lot into this… so enjoy 😉

She also got lucky when Lais Ribeiro (poor girl) tweaked her feet on the day before the show in the rehearsal, because then her two outfits got to be given to others and one got to Shanina Shaik (gorgeous) while the opening one for one of the segment, with glorious feathered wings, immediately went to Behati, who just shone in it.

Completely.

The picture you see where Behati almost cries is taken when she got told Lais couldn’t make (I have been told by a sure source).

Behati is so generous and good, instead of being happy for herself, she almost cried for the bad luck of Lais, no matter if through that she would have got three outfits and an opening.

THIS is Behati.

Too bad the picture I am telling you about got used by trash press to spread stupidity around.

Interviewed about the show, and a charity that was promoted by VS for the victims of Sandy, Behati hinted at her apartment being flooded.

Now follow me, because this is cute (again, I have assurance about this whole dynamic through my links).

This is an article taken out of this thing (note the trash always comes from the same “sources”…):

US Magazine keeps being trash

US Magazine keeps being trash

Let me just point out the mess of the article.

First, I have been told Behati was never meant to speak about Adam.

She was just asked if she was fine and she said “yes, thank you”; then while speaking of her apartment flooded, she just said that while it was happening she was with her boyfriend on the other coast and she was not affected as much as she could have.

But of course magazines spun other things into her very brief and simple and totally private answer.

Poor Behati… No matter how great you are in preserving your and Adam’s business… they can always ruin it all.

Don’t let them to.

Ever… KEEP fighting okay girl? 😉

Mesmerizing Behati VSFS 2012

Mesmerizing Behati VSFS 2012

I also laugh at the way in this trash magazine they labeled the relationship a courtship (LOL… yeah, sure, because they have no sex… and because is for being totally a-sexual that in almost 7 full months Behati and Adam are together she spent with him 81% of the days of this span of time…), and how it seems that from May to November there are only 4 months to be counted (again, because Behati never spoke about the relationship, but US Magazine put into the article what they liked… or WORST, what they were paid to put up, to just cut Behati a different angle than she is).

Behati is not trash, so I hate when they use her to use Adam… why not just put the normal story up?

Easy answer… because truth is not interesting as much as lies.

Then just around these days, more garbage was thrown at Behati and Adam (and along the crew we have a pretty defined idea on whose to be blamed for all this dirt… just ask yourselves whom could be benefiting from trash given to Adam and Behati…).

First Adam was flirting with longlife pal Katy perry (who’s with John Mayer since months, and whom has always been just a friend of Adam) at his Halloween bas (yeah, sure); not only shamelessly… BUT IN FACE OF BEHATI?

Please.

How can people be SO stupid to believe this (and trust, many did).

Then, the maximum of idiocity: Patsy and Fred, Adam’s parents, would be pushing Adam at marrying Behati.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!

Please?

Really?

First of all: Adam lives his life outside of all these things, and his parents would NEVER intrude this way in his life.

Second: Adam doesn’t want to marry, and he has stated this so many times, and he has broken relationships over this point, at least a couple of times already.

Third: Behati is not somebody desperately trying to get into a marriage with someone famous to get more famous herself.

Fourth: they are together and very happy since the whole of May BUT none of them would ever marry out of some months bliss.

ESPECIALLY ADAM, who knows until he has a career, he has no time to have a family (which doesn’t necessarily involves marriage for him anyway).

But why all these false stories are going around?

Who is trying again to ruin Adam’s private life through things he hates with the whole of himself, namely false gossip lies?

Again… CUI PRODEST?

dam on Anderson. The episode was taped in October though

Adam on Anderson. The episode was taped in October though

That’s the answer you gotta face to understand this all.

I did . 😉

Get used to lies when it’s about Adam and Behati… like when (I predicted it in my two posts before this one already) OF COURSE trash gossip sites started to wonder why Adam wasn’t sided at the VS Fashion show to cheer her walking…

Well, HE WAS LIVE WITH THE VOICE on the other side of the Country that day, for instance?

And… a real Angel doesn’t need a famous boyfriend to get relevance in the show, maybe?

Too complicated for poor retards to get, I know… but again I tend to believe all this dirt is more spun to disfavor Behati and to make others feel better.

I may be mean…

But I am sure I am right, and I have no doubts about all these strange news being manipulated.

I am just glad neither Adam nor Behati cares, and fly higher above all this trash.

They are so not worthy of all these vicious lies being spread though.

But one thing is for sure, is that Adam likes revenge.

He won’t forget who mistreated him, or the ones he loves. he can remember that for years and have a vengeance in time.

Don’t trust his smiles to enemies… he doesn’t forget and he mostly doesn’t forgive: anyone who knows him for real will tell you this (I am similar, so I understand him well).

But back at good things.

While Behati was working her (beautifully shaped) ass off, and also took care to make everybody sure she wasn’t available also at the after party, and then she was ready after the show to fly in Hawaii first for her tv stint, and then to Mexico for VS duties (can’t wait to see the shots!) along her great pal Candice Swanepoel, Adam had some great things to mind too.

He had a gig with his colleagues at the show (no, I won’t mention it ? ;)) refer to the NAWAAL page please ;)) and also Jesse (beloved Jesse!!! come back to us soon!!!) attended the show taping (sweet, that was sweet from him to tweet it).

While being taken with his stuff, Adam shared this WONDERFUL Stevie Wonder’s playlist with Rolling Stone (click on the picture, jump on the page and listen… I couldn’t save the file, too little of time to crack it sorry ;)):

Adam Levine Stevie Wonder’s Playlist _from RollingStoneUSA_November 2012

Adam also had modeled for the event you know since other updates (the GQ Gentlemen’s Ball), for which he got this page on GQ November 2012:

Adam Levine in GQ USA – November 2012 issue

He looks so dapper completely clean up 😉

I wish instead to have yet to receive TV Guide Magazine where Adam gets honored, I had to still get People Magazine instead…

Lucky me didn’t BUY that (I got sent as a gift it by friends):

People UN-Sexiest Man Alive issue 2012

People UN-Sexiest Man Alive issue 2012

… because it’s not only a crime to have disregarded Adam that way, putting him up with a minuscule photo taken not from his regular look (even the pornstaches he worn out for a while are better than that) but from his role look for “Can A song Save Your Life?”, but it’s a blatant insult to have used him viciously in the online editions of the magazine, hinting that he may have some relevance in the printed edition, and then give him that awful space you see above.

Trying to milk readers better, People?

Oh, what a sham 😉

But at least is something right?

Nah, it’s not 😉

I actually am glad Adam’s management doesn’t pay to get covers on People (because THAT is the way these lists are made… teams decide whom to give the spotlight depending on how much money pressure they get from the PR teams 😉 it’s all business in Hollywood, glad Adam doesn’t strive for it though. He’s way sexier than anyone mentioned instead of him in this issue and that’s for sure ;))

But let’s hope soon THIS instead arrives in my Hand, namely…

Adam Levine tops TV Guide's HOTLIST 2012

Adam Levine tops TV Guide’s HOTLIST 2012

… the TV Guide one he’s part of (the latter, much deservedly, on the cover of course) so no scan on this update I am sorry (blame USA postal services, thank you 😉 ):

I love anytime Adam is on magazines though.

He had also his fun at the soiree organized to honor his cover of course 😉 like the star he is, and the super talented person he is.

I still love him all clean up and modeling actually, though I know he always tries his best to avoid these things like pest (why? why? Handsome-ness has to be shared, you egoistical man! 😉 Kidding… of course he accepts these things only when he likes to, and it’s his prerogative).

Adam also sat down for an interview with Ellen, before sharing stage with Maroon 5 for performing Daylight:

I love that he keeps being very reclusive about his personal life.

He has learnt that no one really in love with you will ever push you to give her publicity.

Now he doesn’t feel forced to speak of his private business to make others happy and I prefer him (and his love life) this way.

Sorry Ellen 😉 not even you could break that (nor did Howard Stern in June, so… if you two can’t, nobody will ;)).

Adam in the main time is still practicing golf and being charitable through it (love this side of him, always very private as well), and so he was part of a Tournament benefiting a very well renowned Foundation in California.

Behati was then moving from Hawaii to Talun as I said… and even if for a while the beach things she was shooting two weeks ago won’t be available (the ones below are from the July shots), you can watch this video to be reminded of her fab body ;):

Awww.

SEXY yet classy.

She’s an African Queen indeed 🙂

While Behati was in tropical Paradises for duties, Adam went back to New York with the boys to perform one of their favorite gigs always.

They were the musical guests on the Saturday night Live episode hosted by great Jeremy Renner, and the episode was a great success (also in ratings, of course):

I wonder if the fact Adam spent all the after party talking with Jeremy will actually bring some more acting into his future.

I am sure he’s focused about it too.

While they were there (the day before actually) Maroon 5 were also the musical guests at the prestigious American National Museum of History Annual Gala (I have been there with Coldplay.. well 😉 Chari was there with Maroon 5 instead and I don’t know who got it better ;)) and a lot of good came out from it too ;).

Well… of course Mick Jagger is a force to be reckoned so maybe Chari might have the edge there 😉

Being in New York in that weekend prevented Adam and Maroon 5 from their glory reception of another American Music Award for Best Band (the only one the shame of Bieber couldn’t steal them of… stupid tasteless teenager giving that trick awards… ) but they were sure grateful for the win.

I wonder if stupid Bieber will prevent Adam from more awards at the People’s Choice Awards.

I say this because Adam is the single person who is candidated THE MOST (he’s up for 6 nods).

Wow.

Not bad man…(though I hope he wins only where he is candidated for Maroon5 related things… because… well.. you know ;)).

While glory was pouring on the guys Behati was still on working schedule, but at least to work with your best friends is a great relief I guess (working in a paradise on earth doesn’t hurt either ;)).

But when Ben Watts said goodbye to Bee and he seemed to hint she was ready to travel to MORE Happy places… we knew where she was heading, didn’t we?

Sure, she never tells it openly.

Because well… that’s only HER (and HIS) business but…

We knew 😉

We should never get so surprised anymore at the grace and the power Behati has to be THE PERFECT GIRLFRIEND for little Adam 🙂

The lively Angel who’s by his side since the whole of May (at least… let’s leave Coachella in the “hooking Up Department”, though the sparkle sparkled very much like a FIRE immediately… bless the African drive and passion ;)), no matter what and no matter how, also in this month of November has showed how it’s done to be Adam’s lady.

She has worked her ass off for most of the month, squeezing a lot into 20 days, and as soon she could, she was back by Adam’s side.

STRAIGHT.

Behati for Desigual 2012 Extras

She’s a true ray of sunshine in his life.

So glad she’s there for him… so happy she gives him what he needs, especially considering how full and without breaks his life is.

Behati balances it all.

She IS love.

And we do know how much Adam needs a pure and not exploiting kind of it to be fine in his stuff too.

Behati Prinsloo for VS Swim NOV 2012. This spread was shot in July – with Sara Sampaio – before she took flight to join her boyfriend Adam Levine in Japan where Maroon 5 were playing for their Asian Tour

I really wish she would leave Women.

Because they will be trying (they are already) to milk Adam again through her and he won’t take that once again after he realized how much he has been used for two years (if you wonder why Adam’s tweets have changed that much, here’s your answer: he has gone back to be who he REALLY is, namely a very private person outside of his very overexposed working life).

I am glad Behati brought him back to his roots, because I never really loved the way he was moved (forced?) to put out on display for everyone to see his private life and thoughts.

Gloriously beautiful Behati Prinsloo is wet for Seafolly

That was NOT Adam.

That was a manipulated-from-love-towards-a-wrong-receptacle Adam… glad we are now having the real Adam back, and if this means not knowing his background days, WHO CARES.

I prefer to be assured he is happy (and I AM ASSURED OF IT 😉 ) behind closed doors instead of seeing him fakely chased by paparazzi and having “sources” and “unnamed close friends” (read: manipulative PR teams, which are not belonging to Adam’s life) explain us carefully what he thinks about family and marriage and how he feels about his love life at the moment.

Heck! He’d never ever share these things with strangers, if it were up to him 110%!

Adam and Behati on Memorial Day 2012 – May 28 – in Hawaii

That type of info given out to – low-rated – press (?) is mostly always a front, and should almost never been given credit at all.

Instead these smiles you see during his Thanksgiving time, just like those passionate, adorable, very lovingly kisses Adam was planting on Behati’s face in Hawaii in May (where he was with private people and unaware of paparazzi around, hence he was completely free to be himself and put his passion on up), things that are real because they are happening in his PRIVATE MOMENTS, that are not meant to be seen by any other than his real close people, well, THOSE displays (not public) of affection are what matters.

Those are what real love calls for and a real relationship shall be made of.

Real life… has to be private.

No matter if you are a celebrity… your private life MUST be only yours (and it bares a striking contradictions, I know, that while I preach this then I post somehow private pictures of A&B up here, but that is not a media blog, it is just a personal one about things that I like and that happens to me, so while I am also putting up pictures not meant to be seen, I do because those – already published elsewhere though, I carefully avoid to post around pictures that have NEVER surfaced anywhere else before, that’s a rule over here – that are just meant to prove my point, that Adam and Behati are very happy, very secure lovers all into one another for THEIR LIVES and not for paps or fame. Those pictures float anyway over the web so they have ceased to be private anyway. My use of them is not evilish at all, and I will take care of not showing minors or locations anyway, no matter if others did instead).

I just feel fine seeing them happy and not for the eyes of strangers to see…

but for their only own good.

I am happy again Behati is showing (once more in this blessed Thanksgiving time… ) how she only cares to be with Adam as much and as long as possible, and never shares bits of their privacy around just to gain status, and it makes my heart so warm and happy to see how she GENUINELY wants to preserve their love intact without selling Adam to the tabloids to be mentioned once more in the media through him.

Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo on Levine’s Family thanksgiving party 22 November 2012. Picture by a close friend. No tabloids allowed. Thank God. Thank you Bee. Keep being awesome to him. You are adorable and TRUE 🙂

So glad I am that the days of being exploited are over for Adam, and that after that unfortunate chapter of his life came to a very blessed end, a real Angel of Love came to save his intoxicated and damaged soul and give Adam back to himself, his senses and the ones who really love him without trying to gain a profit out of it :)).

All in all, I just wish tabloids would stop to spin nonsense about Adam, and about Behati, and about Adam + Behati and stop talking about them altogether, unless it’s for due work of them and not anything else but I also know that is hard for many reasons:

1) tabloids are scum;

2) tabloids write the fakest of things, often without getting punished for it (a problem that in Italy we have with supposed “high journalism” (?) also, see the Alessandro Sallusti‘s case, so it’s not like I can really wonder why those things happen 😉 can I?);

3) tabloids get paid by PR teams to write what those teams want and request, regardless of truths – in fact, more than often IN SPITE of it – just to operate towards defined targets, so they will often try to build stories when they need to speak about someone, if they can’t find real fact to report;

4) tabloids readers are mostly REALLY stupid, so they won’t ever reckon how false all those stories, and how manipulated and scripted by PR teams all their “news” are.

Should we care?

As brained people, not we must NOT; and I am happy Adam and Behati are of the same idea, and just avoid any forced contact with the worst of “media” (?) feeders.

I should just accept that in public people’s lives the downward side of being subject of dirty tabloids gossip and manipulation is sadly a not erasable occurrence, and just stop taking notices, just again like Adam and Bee do.

Adam despises gossip blogs.

And one thing is for sure that he won’t let anybody use him through them again so I really hope Behati can keep being as strong as she is demonstrating to be and never surrender at any’s will to milk Adam, because that would be the end of this relationship and I would be sad, because this relationship has brought us back the best Adam I was used to know (beside The Fuckery The Karaoke Mess that thing being still a thing of his… But I have strong hopes that chapter will soon be finished as well).

Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine with Adam’s entire family on Thanksgiving 2012.
They are just amazingly happy together. And not for the paps. For themselves only.

Really… if Behati leaves that Agency that should be called Whoring Management instead of Women I would be the happiest person EVER: they have never done much for her anyway, and even though it now seems they are starting to do, it’s never for her… it’s just for trying to upper themselves through her new spotlight, and pushing others by linking her awfully in things she doesn’t belong to, always in the creepiest ways.

She has the kind of skills to be one of IMG people anyway; she is a natural in front of cameras, she works well on motion, has a great eloquence, a sparkle of funny personality, a vision, and she is artistically educated because she is not merely a model, she is a musician and a photographer.

Behati Prinsloo and her perfect body emerges from the sea in Hawaii 5-0 feature

She has so much to emerge as a complete entertainer and her naturalness on Hawaii 5-0 demonstrates this once again (as any of her reaching out outside the plain work of a model – work that she rocks anyway, since her very start tho ;).

Of course this is just her very first (and not much prepared, as she flew in as soon as the VSFS ended) acting stint, so her abilities are completely rough cutted in there… but she is a natural force of Nature and – much like her boyfriend’s Adam – I just think she needs some practice at acting, and then she could just be BIG.

Her charm is undeniable and it takes as much as following her here, when she announced the feature, to realize how natural, away from pretentiousness, passionate and genuine she is.

I love everything Scott and Alex and Producers, Peter Lenkov & the Cast of Hawaii 5-0 said about Behati.

How people can hate on her is beyond me:

Of course envy is the reason, but I am sure anyone would love to be her friend, and that is why she is actually FULL of friends , and a LOT are actually females (which makes a double-check on her goodness because females hate easily on other females… instead Behati has GREAT friends and a lot also in the modeling world, and not as a “front friendship”… Coco Rocha, Candice Swanepoel, those are FRIENDS for real and for life. It speaks so accurately about Bee, the way she makes real friends also in the Fashion world).

Behati Prinsloo in HF Collage Shots which I find gorgeous

I also am deeply convinced that REAL people (like her and Adam are) have a BIG HARD TIME doing acting, because that doesn’t come natural to them.

Fakers are just much more inclined…. if you act in your real life, chances are you may be pretty good at acting in front of a camera (for some people, that is just a synonymy in which acting in life EQUALS acting in general… but let’s not give in there ;)).

I like the way Sun kisses Behati’s in this promo though:

And my oh my… Behati REALLY is 5’11”.

She towers poor Scott Caan a lot 😉 (Alex O’ L is over 6’1′ so she doesn’t dwarf him instead).

Behati on set

Behati on set

Behati’s cheerful, totally shining personality is what drives people to her.

Sure, she is a giant beauty with perfect body and completely mindblowing, unique facial features (THE CHEEKBONES!!! I can’t get enough ;))…

But what REALLY makes her unique is her personality which shines through always.

Proof of that?

You know HOW MUCH I DESPISE BIEBER, do you?

Well, I was not up to post this Victoria’s Secret Angels singing over his song “Beauty And The Beat” (which is not even that terrible, but being him, it still is) because I would never touch anything Bieber BUT…

Sometimes things get to be submitted here due to their over powering adorable-ness ;).

And when I saw this I couldn’t hold grudges towards the fact it was still an awful Bieber’s song that was chosen for the lypsynch phase.

Behati, this year again, shines through this whole fragment… you can see her personality glitter all over (and how happy is she there? OF COURSE… 24 hours before that lipsynch performance she was STILL in Adam’s arms ;)):

Behati is so adorable and so herself and so lively lipsynching that I couldn’t avoid.

See?

She’s so great she can even make me stand some Bieber (well let’s not go overboard…).

Glorious Behati. Bet Adam has a lot of fun with her infinite legs and THAT booty ;)

Glorious Behati. Bet Adam has a lot of fun with her infinite legs and THAT booty 😉

I am sure Adam is proud of his girl and he MUST.

She is just so real and I am sure hangin around her would bright anyone’s life.

Even in these stills out of her (amazing and finally out of Pink) performance at this year Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show you can see the passion for life and the deconstructed charm this girl has:

Adam needs exactly THIS in his complicated life.

Not a drama and clinging queen… he needs somebody who’s able to light his whole life up, to bring comfort into it when he has no other way to slow down.

He has written songs about that since an eternity… and Behati indeed is the type of person who can give him JUST EVERYTHING he needs, because not only she is the physical type he favors (as tall – or even taller – than him, infinite legs, toned, slim, but curvy enough to be womanly, a face that change from being innocent to being a sexy fox, and a kinky very developed side) but finally she has the personality to match his over-demanding one, while being reclusive about any detail.

I REPEAT FOR THE MILLIONTH TIME: This relationship of Bee and Adam could end TOMORROW: and STILL Behati will always be for him the best and realest girlfriend he’s had since he got famous, because even now that he is at a HUGE peak of fame, she has NEVER EVER USED HIM ONCE TO GAIN FAME HERSELF.

Behati and Adam in Los Angeles, 23 November 2012. totally loved up. Aww.

Behati is a wonderful person and for the way she has been there for Adam (and for the REAL him,) always and constantly, for the way she has always traveled the world to be as much as possible with him, for the way she has never ever used social media to pimp her relationship with him, or any other outlet, for the way she has and is respecting and taking care of Adam and his closest friends and family genuinely and uninterestedly… for the way Behati is LOVING Adam (and we all know that is all but easy, as he is NOT an easy person to deal with), she deserves to be BLESSED and THANKED from all of those who claim they are fans and appreciate and care about Adam (even if his private life is not a fan’s business at all).

adorability at the maximum level.

I wish everyone could realize that.

But the only thing that matters is that for sure ADAM DID AND DOES.

I hope this continues, as long as possible: Behati has brought light and real love back into Adam’s darkness and this is magnificent, and I wish she could be glorified for it and not trashed.

Those people hating on her, bashing her, spreading lies about her are obviously too stupid and not worthy to understand and see the goodness of Bee+Adam’s combo.

We can’t plant sense-fulness into brainless people.

Let’s just be aware of that ourselves, and pity them enemies if they are dull and blind 😉

PS: the pictures out from Thanksgiving have been taken from Instragram sources, which I have been sent by friends and occasional speakers.

Since they involve not willing people (kids of Adam’s family) those faces have been blurred to preserve privacy.

I have also decided to put them up only because they are flowing all over Internet and therefore anyone could catch them now through a web research, but I willingly decided to only keep the faces of Adam and Behati up, avoiding to display also Adam’s brother Michael and Gene Hong’s ones although his brother (I can’t stand him and you know it) was the one posting the first ones for the world to see (a fame oriented brother that is… I feel always creepily turn out by him actually but whatever, I just prefer to not pay attention to him tout court. He won’t change in his trials to become known through Adam so let’s just stop hoping he could, and move away and furtherly).

What does matter is that Behati still with her half and that even when she comes to the public places of him (like when she went to The Fuckery The Karaoke Mess that thing tapings, she avoids to share that through internet, and that’s cute… but lucky enough her look she was sporting on the taping of Monday 26th of November was too lovely to be not shared by Internet people (she has her Halloween wig up and she keeps wearing Adam’s clothes, here it is the cardigan, while the days before Halloween it was actually his trousers… that is so adorable I melt ;)):

Behati Prinsloo at The Voice on Monday 26th of November 2012. That’s her Halloween wig. And Adam’s sweater on 😉

Speaking about the lovely habit Behati has to wear Adam’s pieces of clothing (that is marvelous… she’s so modest and doesn’t ask for expensive gifts, she is so natural and lovely and for her the best clothes she could possibly wear are HER BOYFRIEND’s ones and this is so pure and lovingly… it always makes me melt. Behati, you’re a wonderful SOUL. You are.).

When asked at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show this year about a twitter question on her guilty pleasures… SHE SAID THIS (any Adam’s fan knows why I put this up here, right?):

Awww. I can imagine them both drawn into a giant jar of Haribo’s

They are so adorable!

By the way maybe they bought some of them while shopping at their (MINE!!!!) Gelson’s after the show was taped…

Look HOW AMAZING THEY ARE… the perfect easy-going, totally relaxed, completely real-and-out-of-fake type of couple:

Adam Levine and girlfriend Behati Prinsloo shop at their local Gelson’s after The Voice show on Monday November 26th 2012. Gummy Bears are there too or… ? 😉

But okay, I am digressing from my point (sorry, I just love to see Adam back being so very happy, and it’s ALL Behati’s touch on him who brought him back to that state he didn’t experience in so long before her).

I really like her charm and I hope they can have also some Xmas time together (these pictures from her JCrew’s spread help the mood) even though with all Adam’s commitments and the fact Maroon 5 play Las Vegas near to New Year’s Eve (and Behati goes in Africa around the Xmas holidays, as it’s right to do) that is not really very likely.

Behati Prinsloo for JCrew Xmas 2012

But who knows… their love is strong and they have already surprised us (she mostly) for their way to find ALWAYS the methods to stay as much as possible together.

And after all, if Behati stayed with Adam’s family on Thanksgiving… wouldn’t be cute for him to pay visit to her family on Xmas?

We can just cross fingers, and anyway, I am sure they DO know what’s better for themselves and for their strong bond.

Back to chronicles now 😉

That moment where she was at The Fuckery The Karaoke Mess that show  anyway deserves some kind of a break in of news, even in here, where it is forbidden by love of music souls (reality singing competitions = death of real artistry. THIS IS and there’s no way I will ever change my mind…).

No… don’t worry I am NOT gonna cover anything related to that awful thing in itself… because lucky enough I hadn’t to.

Let me be clearer.

That day 50 Cent and Adam premiered the AWESOME My Life collaboration, but without EMINEM.

Adam Levine and 50 Cent premiere “My Life” on Monday 26th of November 2012

Therefore I didn’t have to watch it.

I could just buy the single as soon as it came out (on Italian Monday still, just before I was going to bed) and  wait for this video the day after.

The video is EVERYTHING and it shows the most amazing trio of power all together

I cream myself at the greatness of this song; and you know how skeptical I was when a year or so 50 Cent and Adam started to give hints about a collaboration, but it took enough to add Lord Eminem to the mix, and actually “My Life” became instantly one of my musical dreams made true.

Adam and Eminem on the same record...

My Life. 50 Cent featuring my dream combo Eminem + Adam Levine.
WOW. Straight to Number one where it belongs 😉

This is pretty much perfection and it holds more of my heart than both Heard Em say and Promised Land (Revelations) do (the ones Adam shares with Kanye, whom I adore, despite his downwarding spiral into KardTRASHIAN lands).

But okay… I do still adore Kanye and this version of Heard Em Say video is still so dear to my heart I gotta put up also this (sorry for the step into memory lane 😉 ):

You know that is cause of THIS video and song if any time we stay in NY I have to go at THAT Macy’s to feel it as a musical vibe? (Also, I am dead sure that the hilarious – and cool – Macklemore’s Thrift Shop video somehow is a twist of this version of Heard’Em Say…. ;)).

But enough… let’s go back to My Life.

The song shot immediately to iTunes #1 as deserved (even though two days later it got knocked down by that HORRENDOUS Will.I.Am + Britney Spears’ mess called “Scream And Shout, which is exactly what you feel like to do after hearing it… due to its awfulness) and so the streak of Adam’s uncanny hit continues, just after One More Night got displaced after 9 week at the top by Rihanna (and we all predicted this by the way), and while Overexposed continues to sell amazingly (it just crossed the 810.000 copies this week ;), and One More Night is almost 3 times platinum in USA, and Payphone is well over 4 and 1/2 platinum already. Utter Domination.).

Grammy Awards.

Grammy Awards.

Despite the great performances on chart out of our guys, I am a bit worried about Grammy Nominations.

Somehow the fact that One More Night overshadowed Payphone in terms of weeks at number one on Billboard made everyone forget that Payphone was a way more global hit selling way more worldwide; unfortunately the fact it never got past number 2 in USA makes me fear the submission at the Committee have been for both songs, and that is NOT a smart move, especially when Maroon 5 have to compete in the most battled and crowded field (Pop).

That is a fear all of our crew has, that to submit both songs will have forcefully to split votes and polarize them; and that could undermine the chances of actual nominations when the votes get counted, if people have split them in two directions without none of them clearly prevailing.

Plus the rise (deserved I think) of Pink’s star in the album category is going to probably block Overexposed in any album related nods.

We’ll know soon, because the Grammy nomination concert is behind the corner (but you will be updated of it here only way later ;)).

What is for sure is that the boys are at their peak EVER.

Maroon 5 are simply put a great REAL band…

They are pop in the best sense of that word.

Where pop is meant to be an infusion of many things heading towards large fruition without derailing out from artistry.

They still have it, and I am still proud of them (and you know I have been quarreling with some of their choices…).

I am happy because they are. 🙂

And I am happy also because Adam is very very happy with a beautiful angel by his side.

(How many “happy” did I just write in 5 lines? Oh who cares… ;))

Take a look at the whole of November of the lovey dovey duo of Adam and Bee… and I hope you like my song choices for the segments, because they are well thought-over 😉 :

I wonder which film they have seen together by the way

Another thing which is lovely is that Behati has just shot a series of things for VS IN LOS ANGELES.

Behati shooting the other day for VS in Los Angeles

Behati shooting the other day for VS in Los Angeles

She does her best not only to be with Adam always, but to bring her work to HIS place, so that she can avoid to leave him for too long.

I am also curious to know if this is what inspired Adam “I want a baby tiger” tweet.

Because I can totally see Behati agreeing with that 😉

She would probably also be delighted if Adam could be the temporary replacement drummer of Pearl Jam  😉

I can see her pushing him for that actually (like he needed it ;)).

And I also wish to them to have a great weekend, as it seems they are going somewhere from Ben’s tweets ;).

Well, speaking of which, my weekend has started and I am finishing this post on iPad and on a car directed to Ortisei.

We have picked a house there so that we can be independent from my friends’ Cortina’s place (which still near).

This way K&I can get our freak on.

No really.

That was mostly the reason that pushed us to find a place of our own in Val Gardena 😉

Sorry friends… we know you understand!

(and probably approve 😉 LOL).

I leave you with a beautiful article and interview of James (dear Jimmy V!!!!) which I find awesome.

Read it carefully because it’s amazing 🙂

James Valentine on Guitar.com

James Valentine on Guitar.com

I’d say this is long enough ;).

Wish you all a great weekend, to find a wonderful place for your mind and heart, and to find a source of fire within yourself to spread it around.

Life is a wonderful thing… but it can not come out as easy as we’d wish for.

Let’s treasure it.

Every day.

I do, and that’s why I feel fine and happy I guess 😉

Happy Xmas time from Behati Prinsloo and VS ;)

Happy Xmas time from Behati Prinsloo and VS 😉

See ya around or after Xmas I suppose 😉

Missus Z. is on track towards Pordoi or something 😉

Bye!

Good October everybody!

And if you wonder why I have chosen my dearest Japanese as header and title… well you will know later on 😉

Vibe at 110%

Beside than everyone in my book should learn Japanese and should go to the place and just worship everything Nihon as much as I do… but I am diverting from the man path here, I know 😉

Truth is I am so emotionally involved with Japan that I properly need to be there… and so this year we will get there for my birthday, the way it was originally planned for past years, but got replaced by… guess what? Africa, Mozambique, Namibia & so on then some California Love😉 (talk about life connections, lol…).

It will be during Hanami and I just cannot wait even though we’re barely out of Summer and I just got back from some days in Holland and I am just about to re-travel again (but all this kind of traveling involves also business while on my birthday it will just be magic epicness and no duties ;)).

Before we dwell a bit into my life (always a tad hectic, lol) in the past three weeks, please leave me in a sad corner and let me cry my (sporty) heart out just a little bit.

Let me mourn some heavy seconds the death of my Milan… I mean… I couldn’t be a bit happy for the good game we played in Champions League against Zenith San Petersburg (and how it reminded me of the beautiful Russian time last year… that still has been one of the most beautiful holidays I have had! so romantic and perfect!) than we just decided to crumble at our worst levels (helped by some undignified arbitrage gotta say) by falling to Inter on October 7th (not even the fact I was in Van Basten’s land helped me there to cope… Karim had to sex me up REALLY much & well to make me work the day after 😉 but ehi… you know my ways to Sexual Healing are powerful ;)).

I can’t with the way Milan this year really do seem pointless, and basically without any developing plan in sight.

It makes me so sad at times…

Where have the times gone?

But let’s avoid this train of thoughts… so many good things await in this post 😉

Florence times are always magic for K&I

And indeed I have to say the Amsterdam time has been magical anyway (much like our little blitz in Florence this past weekend, when we have packed on this just past Saturday morning just because we didn’t want to stay in Milano with all the traffic of cars blocked, and tons of people stuck in our most liked weekend places in the area).

We went there in Dutch Lands with some of the crew for a VERY entertaining weekend, but then K&I stayed because both had some working duties to fulfill there and I DON’T COMPLAIN.

The town is amazing (even though this time our dinner at Paradise on the water wasn’t as memorable as when I went there with family sometime ago…).

Love going there 😉

I love the place because it’s creative, modern but then that water landscape get so easily out-of-time-context one just finds themselves entranced and captured with their whole fiber of body&mind.

And the sex.

The sex…

That is always stellar over there (we have had fireworks at night in more ways than one, lol ;)), because for some unknown reason we seem to get embodied with decades of historical debauchery inspiration over there and that translates always in LOT of fun ;).

So in a few more hours we are stepping back in Dear California… and again it’s gonna be a quick-but-really-filled-up-with-stuff trip.

Basically we go to visit Karim’s family for a super fast shot in San Francisco, with an in-between stay that K&I and Chari and a couple friends will check-in to LA (we will get a Maroon 5 glimpse at Citybank’s gig too, if nothing happens of unexpected) and then back to New York because both Karim and I have business to take care of for a couple more days.

We are happy to oblige to family reunion though; and we are happy to pay back visit as Karim’s family has been visiting us for a while during Milano Fashion Week (which lead to amazing parties – Vogue & the Armani Gala – and lot of fun… I suspect than K’s parents, more than K properly, have also been the generous ones making me realize a childhood dream and have to play tennis with a legendary Roland Garros icon.

But I won’t say a word more on that, beside THANK YOU. :)).

During the Cali time we REALLY hope to go watching MY LAKERS /OUR LAKERS/EVERYONE’S LAKERS even if we have to be super quick like last time with my daddy too and fly there in helicopter and then stay in our up zone booth and then leave even before than a blink post game has been cast.

Anything, but please let me see Kobe + Dwight + STEVE!!!!!!

Dwight and Steve Lakers goofing

I drool.

I do 😉

That’s something that can make me orgasm: I mean watching Kobe and Steve interact (much like any other fan, famous or not, is eagerly awaiting to witness in all purple and gold glory).

That is basketball at its finest and then feeding Howard?

Oh man!

I can’t at such perfection 😉

I must see it with my own eyes… pretty please? 😉

In all that I wish we could stay enough to celebrate Halloween there in the US, which is one of my greatest passions, but I fear we can’t stay that long in New York even if I hope I am wrong and then we end up doing it… 😉 because why put limits at my own hopes when life chances can be bigger than those even?

Halloween by the way will be also very interesting because I personally am DYING to know what Adam and Behati and all of Maroon 5 accolites will dress like

Behati and freaky stuff are seemingly a bond already (no surprises once again her personality matches naturally her man’s… oh boy! They seem just so MADE to be AS ONE… I love that!).

And just because we’re briefly on the note of A+B…

Time is also approaching for Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show… and sweet Behati is all pumped up for it since a while 🙂 Take just this lovely glimpse from last year’s show because you see her graciousness at her Angel (you know, she is a REAL one… ;)) fitting for the Super angel segment in 2011 and her Pink’s ones.

This year though she should be towering more towards out-of-Pink’s stuff if all about her new status as a VS Mainline Angel is any indication of (and she’s breathtakingly AMAZING in her more mature and sexy role, I have to say… though her bright, lively, outshining and spunky personality still shine in laces and silk too ;).

So take a look at her perfection in the most recent Victoria’s secret shots of her for the Fall and Winter of 2012/2013 and then wait for more later on too (ps: I always try to pick fitting songs to underline my videos ;)):

About the ongoing bullshit about irrelevant people being labeled “angels” and instead those who really ARE ANGELS, this year Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show page has updated its section with a WONDERFUL feature called “ANGEL LINE UP” where you can see who the walking ANGELS are (then there will be important models having wings at the show – still not being angels – and then some other models who will get  still some limelight because they date people who are way more important than them, and they use that spot to gain visibility that the show’s producers are happy to give to them to boost ratings… this has always been happening since at least 2005, so no surprises there… but the qualification of “Angel of VS” at least now is once again something one earns through a contract and not just because you sleep with somebody to get some steps up in the ladder of fame 😉 Oh, and if you sense some directed ironic sarcasm in the previous note, later on in this post you will understand why it seems that I am hinting at some of Adam’s previous famewhores leeches girlfriends by comparison… which I TOTALLY am, and this is a twist from past you will understand as I said later in this post, because I just have had the NOT pleasure of being submitted to some materials that made me REALLY make up my mind in a very different ways from what I used to regarding said people):

Angel Line Up for VSFS 2012… oh… LOOK! Behati is one 😉

And just because she can, Behati is teasing viewers up along her fellow Angels in this “Victoria’s Secret Angels talk about Seduction” video.

I noticed straight two things: that it was taken in July when she had that little few days away from Adam (one of the rare cases they weren’t together) before reaching him at Lake Taohe (the villa is totally the one where she was working with Russel James and the angels back then), and that she is AWESOME, because her answer to what is seductive for her is sublime (and since by then she and Adam were together since two months, and she is completely smiling in the video, I guess Adam is an EXCELLENT listener for her. Which doesn’t surprise me because Behati is smart and very bright and has lots of things in common with Adam that they can talk with one another for AGES – in between sex I mean – ;)).

But judge yourself… this is the video:

As we have known then already, when in last post I showcased her doing Yoga for the new VSX sporty line, Behati has got her Victoria’s Secret spunky & lively groove on in active ads, and this is the extended promo VS is showing now that she TOTALLY rocks with her brilliance and energy.

Take a look & listen to that sexy voice she has, too:

Anyway is not yet time to speak about THE LOVERS (Adam and Behati), nor yet about The Lovers (Adam Levine and Jenna Dewan character pair in American Horror Story, which I will witness as we arrive in Cali I guess if some kind soul is up for recording it for us or if there will be a re-broadcast the day after ;)).

Before is time to rewind a bit of facts in Maroon 5 world, which keep being JUST AWESOME.

The guys were just starting their tour, and as soon as they departed USA, USA started to treat them like the Kings they are.

One More Night, in fact, has topped any radio format while they have been away, and has stayed now for a total of FOUR WEEKS AS THE REIGNING BILLBOARD HOT 100 SONG.

This is huge, awesome and most notably…

DESERVED.

Maroon 5 deserve all the best for their pure pop perfection which Overexposed is; and I am happy that One More Night got luckier than Payphone because I adore the song and it was so bad Payphone got blocked all its run that to have OMN blocking the worldwide phenomenon which is Gangnam Style for so long was a fair rebound.

I am delighted (no pun intended ;)).

Not only that…

I mean, I don’t need to read those stuff because I follow them since always and my memory is pretty good (while my taste is purely great, thank you); but Billboard has recently shared the data of the best Pop performances in 20 years and NOT surprisingly, Maroon 5 are in the top crop, while Adam to put it there mildly is JUST the one with the single most appearances in these charts of merit.

Not bad… truly not:

Top Artists in USA since 1992 according to Billboard

and this too:

More than a bulldozzer

Not bad, not bad indeed!

The tour is also grossing VERY well, and even though it is certainly not easy to match all schedules together (due to Adam’s side stuff) the guys seem more energized than ever and live they just sound as awesome as always.

They seem very joyous.

This is great to see.

The Awards season is also approaching.

Maroon 5 at the Grammies 2012

I start with the most important thing: GRAMMIES, of course.

Well, just these very hours the shortlist for submission by record companies are being leaked… and although we have yet no confirmation for Maroon 5, we can guess that they will send :

Payphone up for: Record Of the Year; Song Of The Year; Pop Duo/Group; Short Form Video;

They could send One More Night to every category up too, but I hope not because this would split the voters, causing the risk of getting no nominations.

While One More Night is a better song artistically, Payphone is a huger contender for SOTY (where Gotye cannot be nominated) but you can get that up there if you don’t submit it also in the Pop field – or at least it’d be very unlikely.

Sadly Payphone will be an underdog compared to We Are Young and Somebody that I Used To Know… but it’s the third year in a row, the fifth year in Six one that they get nominated and the last time they won was in 2008 so they better get some anyway this year.

They might.

Of course Overexposed will be submitted for Pop Album and Album Of The Year; that’s tricky because the category is always a mess of numbers and critics (stupidly) didn’t praise Overexposed; but the album is selling amazingly and it is producing chart toppers so depending on how Daylight does it might snatch a Pop nod and WHO knows… maybe more (unlikely though).

Anyway, some chances might be in nuce because Maroon 5 have been the FIRST performers announced for the Grammy Nomination Concert in Nashville, December 5.

This is HUGE; and although it doesn’t guarantee a nominee (of course, as you see the submissions aren’t even in, let alone the nominations) it is a good sign the Naras is well oriented towards you (of course, Maroon 5 have been Grammy darlings since their debut on that scene).

Another Award is coming (sooner) though and in this we already know Maroon 5 have been nominated and nominated for the crop of the cake top:

The American Music Awards are back, and our guys are up for all the most important stuff including Artist of The Year:

Maroon 5 up for glory at AMAs 2012

It’s a great satisfaction for a pop band which has been around for a decade, because pop artists and especially male and even more specifically GROUPS of males rarely enjoy this long span of success.

Maroon5 are truly diverse and what they are achieving deserves recognition and highlights.

Sure.

They have had a wonderful tour routine; their name is finally recognized pretty much everywhere and even if the schedule pack is insane, and it becomes uneasy for instance to manage a classic tour time without breaks (necessary to allow Adam for his side projects) which result in a no easy way to promote properly their album outside from the States (which benefit of the constant exposure of the frontman through said side projects) the balancing seems anyway reached and it seems good enough.

Popularity in USA always generates an overflown of derived credibility abroad anyway, so that they will still be able to be International Superstars for way longer than they probably thought they could have 11 years ago.

In one month they have touched so many Countries and very profitably, too; so that by the time the tour was ending, two days ago, they were exhausted but probably truly satisfied, too.

And indeed the time of coming back home had approached fast… the last leg was in Australia and it was brief, intense and awesome (and with some minor flu going on… guess the messages his body was sending to Adam that he didn’t like were those about getting old 😉 and not being as able as before to cope with the intensity of a world wide tour without developing constant little quarreling diseases 😉 poor baby ;))

Maroon 5 in Melbourne 12 October 2012

The Australian dates went on well and smooth despite practically half of the crew (beside Adam, there was Alexander De Leon, and the milk shifter and his mum too) being virtually super sick.

Good things is that from this recording of the gig in Melbourne (I usually don’t upload live performances if not broadcasted but I wanted to get newly ready for the gig on the 19th so this way I have saved the setlist properly, as I don’t think they are gonna change a thing in less than a week ;)), Adam didn’t seem terribly affected by his flu/whatever he has/had:

What can I say?

I can’t wait to witness this live 😉

Things just keep getting better in Maroon 5 world anyway so I expect fun in CityBank Land of Music, even if my permanence in LA will be just as quick as the gig itself almost… 😉

I want to introduce now the linker between Maroon 5 and Adam + Behati and you know, that’s gonna be VERY easy because once again our lovely Angel of Grace has proven her awesomeness through facts 😉

This girl just has no alleged flaws?

We could count as one her slightly not perfect teeth? But I like those too.

It’s that characteristic that makes her unique (and I hope she won’t go down the road of many models who change their teeth after a while…)

Anyway, let’s be more precise in the chronicles (think that I am writing this in between a Skype exchange about tests performing in labs here, in New York and in Bejing so… be quiet and respectful if I write chaotically anyway!)…

Behati had been with Adam even in the first bunch of days of September as you know, missing important exhibits like Ben Watts’ one (that of the charity surfboards) just to spend as much time as possible with her beau, but then Adam had to fly away for the Asian tour and Bee had to start back doing her stuff (and renew Visa, too).

By the way the board is this:

Behati Surfboard

And just because you have REALLY to understand how awesome she is, take the video Ben Watts posted of the “behind the scenes”, with an hilarious end where Behati dances Gangnam Style (you can so clearly see how lively, fresh, spontaneous and awesome this girl is there). LITTLE NOTE: Maroon 5 have CONSTANTLY played a lil mash up on the Asia Tour of Gangnam Style (which is hilarious and ironic, as they have kept the song off the summit of Billboard Hot 100 for weeks and weeks in a row ;)).

Watchin this video… I guess Behati did teach Adam on how to do the little dance?

So by half of the month of September had passed the tour was clearly getting to show on Adam… who surely did miss the perfection of the South American experience when Behati was all along with him, making him the happiest I have ever seen him on any tour (because he suffers touring a lot, since.. always ;)); he was starting to go silent and enjoying Breaking Bad while Behati was all busy working for Victoria’s secret and NEXT Uk (again… watch this little video out from the traces of those two campaign she was shooting in the second half of September 2012):

He passed from being all talkative and enthusiastic, to barely tweet.

Yes, he was having things to keep him occupied beyond the stage, like the Bench Clothing Company endorsement, which for sure has covered him in money, but still… not even fame and glory sometimes can help with the missing piece in your heart spot 😉

Anyway, this is Adam’s Bench Press Day Conference in words…

Adam Levine Bench Press Conference – Manila 17 Sept 2012

And then some collage in pictures (I hope that horrifying mustache goes away… yet strangely he manages to be awkwardly hot with that still on his face. Pretty astonishing really).

And his only comfort as I said above to fight the soon-came-in nostalgia of his Angel from Africa was starting to watch for hours all the seasons of Breaking Bad – thing that he does always when he’s Bee-less it seems (a genius series whose “hero” is a meth dealer undercover… a really dark and amazing comedrama which is just perfect for somebody who cannot focus on goodness because he’s got his life light stolen and so far away from him ;)), and then using a couple of unexpected reason for fun

No matter the great gigs and the praise from journalists everywhere for his stage presence and energy (like in the Philippines, for instance); no matter the perks of being at The Formula 1 Grand Prix (race witnessing that his bandmates enjoyed post their performance, and that he missed… caught up in Skype chats with the other side of the world? you bet ;)) Adam was just starting to feel the lack of human touch.

You could just tell it by any of his tweets, and even from his face on stage (engaging always, but without the sparkle he has when she is along on tour… and if you care to make the comparison, just try and catch online the gigs which are sans Behati and compare Adam’s entire being with those when she is there instead… it’s a TOTALLY different man from every point of view).

Of course, like we all would do in his shoes, he tried to develop distractions to make time pass faster without thinkin too much at the missing, while Bee was moving from Turks and Caicos (for Victoria’s Secret duties) to California, for shooting NEXT.

Maybe he has also started to create songs in collaboration with people (because we know on tour guys write and record…)?

Adam’s always very active on that front anyway; and in fact, after the collaboration with 50 Cent we have already digressed over in previous posts, and after the supposed other collaboration with Wiz Khalifa which is seemingly just tipped as “bonus Track” on his incoming record, Adam has extracted from his hat another rabbit for us.

Another collaboration, again with a rapper (man, isn’t he fond of that crossing over into hip hop?).

Next gem is gonna be with The Game, and don’t take my words on it…

take Rolling Stones’:

The Game teams Up with Adam Levine on new album – Rolling Stone

Sounds very exciting to me 🙂

But all this probably still wasn’t enough to make Adam forget about empty beds and lack of funny cuddling & kisses and twisting sexy matches so…

He had to balance new places sightseeing – from hotel windows and taxis I assume – to work of imagination to make his always wandering mind not fall and falter.

How, are you guessing?

Remember when in last post I laughed at the fact Adam would have followed fans?

yes he’s perfect

Well… he has started to.

He’s well near over at 10.000 people followed by now.

Crazy?

Not really.

I’d call it SMART.

This way not only he can prevent some stupid people from bashing his adored girlfriend, but he also disguises the people he REALLY is interested in following (his inner circle) in tons of others which are just slightly more than ants in his world (don’t take it personally… everyone outside of his life of course has less value for him… and this works for ANYONE around, not just him).

So… what is this new policy he has about huge following lists he seems so fond of as of late?

Gotta say this whole thing amuses me because CLEARLY the people are thinking he follows them for real, or that he actually spends hours clicking each time on 2000 per time follow buttons.

Let me clear the poor minds of the people, because I am a geek and I love to do that (I am sure not even a tenth of people will understand a word from now on, but I will try to open their minds anyway).

Yes, I know this way I sound like a pretentious egotistic and presumptuous witch trying to act all superior on everybody…

I love when lessors compliment me though (because I am exactly like that I reckon it and it doesn’t stir me up a single bit 😉 ops)…

So… there we go!

This is Missus Z.’s Little Twitter Client & Social Management Lesson.

In the twitter clients world do exist a NUMBER of systems to:

Adam’s perfection in Manila Streets

1) follow many people at once;

2) create separate lists for these (how we can call them… “useful for working purposes”?) amount of people one wants to follow numerically, but of course no one is interested in the talks of (unless someone has no life at all, but that clearly ain’t Adam’s case ;));

3) give a range of likeability to the people who can be followed in rushes, like you give to the client who does the automatic filling of the list a series of characteristic the potential one to be followed must have (in Adam’s case, it seems something like “relatively new twitter user” “My own follower” “Maroon 5 interested / spoken of or about” “The Voice spectator” and so on).

4) make adjustments to your timelines so that you can include different streams of tweets in separate lines, and all this without making anybody but you know how these different streams are composed and if they are all active, how and when.

5) the strict majority of all these implemented services can also be carried on for limited amounts of time, and they can have further feature like instant unfollowing or even blocking if something happens that you want to forbid (something like “automatically unfollow/block anybody from list X, Y, Z if they send a Direct Message, for instance).

You can add qualities to be included in the “likeability pool for a follow” and the Twitter client does all by itself.

You can timetable the moment when it will start to follow people and you don’t even need to be active on Twitter in those span of times the twitter client works.

These resources are commonly used by hundreds of people online, and daily.

It baffles me that really too few people are actually aware of them.

We live in a society deeply interconnected and ll these resources are at once a weapon and a shield for everybody; a mirror, or a cape, to use or to wear.

Sometimes I feel like people think Adam is kind of dumb; because I cannot really understand why they would think he could spend hours following strangers, even if for “fun”, or why they suppose he would waste even a second of his very filled-up life to do things absolutely un-mattering in his world.

Man is a lot more intelligent than even his fans (?) assume.

When he does things, he does them having a plan in mind and most certainly he has already programmed how to manage the variables about them; maybe he can start from a wrong point or aim at a wrong target, but you are undervaluing him a lot if you assume he does things without a plan.

Adam Overexposed world Tour September 2012

Note for the dumbest ones around: it’s not like Adam “cheat” on the ones he follows, in the sense he COULD read what they have to say: in fact those people he follows are most assured stored in a proper list that is not visible, but which is part of the way the twitter client sets up your account, and so if one day he wants to see what the random people he follows have to say, he just has to open a window and read; the difference between this reading and, let’s say, check his own mentions is that in this former case he doesn’t read ALWAYS about himself, but he can be able to monitor the real interests and tastes of people that – remember – the twitter client has chosen out of a series of characteristic HE HAS CHOSEN were mattering (but they could also be totally a casually picked series, who knows with him ;)).

These are all social marketing tools, and you can check them (some of them) just with a basic research online.

And Adam’s right in using them.

I am actually impressed he wised up on his twitter use that way.

But don’t worry, he is not losing sleep or freak out at all when he goes on his “following sprees”.

Oh, by the way… if I crashed the dreams of people thinkin he reads what they say sorry.

I feel a bit like when I revealed to my cousin Santa didn’t exist 😉

Ops I can be so mean 😉

And anyway my cousin did know already Santa didn’t exist… it’s just that I tried to explain to him scientifically he didn’t.

And ehi!

I myself was shocked when I discovered it… I honestly believed he was real for the longest time actually 😉 (see? I am a dreamer, too ;)).

Her gorgeousness and spunkyness are amazing 🙂 Behati rocks indeed

Anyway, back to the chronicle of A&B love dating all around the world.

Where were we? Oh, yes… there.

Adam was feeling lonely and she had to make him feel loved instead.

No matter if in the maintime Popdust was making him one of the hottest people and GLAMOUR MAGAZINE (UK edition, as you may guess from the number of irrelevant people outside the spectrum of the Britons ;)) much similarly couldn’t avoid to reserve him a spot on his 100 lists of the uber sexy men (he’s at 60th place… which is ridicolous, he should at least been in the top 5 ANYWHERE, ANYHOW), Adam couldn’t find solace in his hotness all alone without any way to express said hotness in some kind of pleasant activity “à deux” with his better half.

Behati was always there to send sweet lovingly messages, might they have been songs or notes (I love their way to communicate… it’s like understanding their deep connection from an artistic point of view and K&I for instance, and all of my friends, love this type of layered meaningfulness a lot).

Days though were passing and she was in California for NEXT shooting and apparently Gene (Adam’s roomate) didn’t know about her stop (causing a series of hilarious tweets that were partially erased, like all the times it happens whenever Adam and Bee feels there is too much open-ness for a way too curious world to see /world that I am part of allegedly, but ehi, try to be faster than my friends, who always send me material about anything related to Maroon 5 so quickly… I am just a chronicle reporter, when I get news that I find cute 😉 don’t shoot the messenger right?) – well, it’s not like Palm Springs is around LA corner… and Adam and Behati MUST know, since Indio/Coachella/Palm Springs DO MATTER in their Love Story, don’t they? ;):

some of Behati and Gene Hong convo 29 Sept2012 after he tweeted her first

Gotta say I love how she answered him ;).

Gene must learn a bit of ways on how to deal with females or he will NEVER find his miss I fear 😉

Anyway, Adam after that tweeted some praise to Gene, maybe just to make him feel better (how caring 😉 lol again…).

Adam at some point also retweeted a very beautiful comment by his pal Ricky Gervais and that also shows how loved up he is; but he also deleted it (God knows why ;)) causing what would happen later even more resonance…

Yes because in all this mess of cryptic tweets at one point, really, my jaw fell on the floor because Adam suddenly tweeted the UNTHINKABLE.

A LOVE DECLARATION OF EPIC IMPACT.

Maybe you don’t get it but ADAM HAD NEVER TWEETED ANYTHING EVEN REMOTELY COMPARABLE TO THIS TWEET TO ANYONE… EVER.

He did NEVER, even when others tweeted love tweets at him… he ALWAYS used to NEVER reply with ANYTHING close to that he impromptu did the other week, he used to answer with just cute but somehow disappointing notes (if you were the one sending him love messages, I mean…).

But then he tweeted that something that will ring bells to anyone knowing and loving these things:

– basketball

-Spike Lee

-Behati Prinsloo

I was so shocked and at the same time so happy and enchanted and NO, there is NO way that that isn’t directed at Behati.

Wake up… it can’t be any other way 😉

After all she also had tweeted meaningful things to him, like when she just quoted my fav Nirvana’s song to him in a morning when he was clearly feeling the pain of the detachment… and if you don’t know what Lithium lyrics are… there you go, you better understand HOW DEEPLY these two speak the same language and are connected:

That message also was very clear: she was telling Adam that she loves him and no distance will ever break that, because as soon as she could she would be back to him (thing that she CONSTANTLY did and keeps doing, God bless her for being so wonderful to and for him!); the song also hints to the fact no matter how many people will try to bring her down because they are envious that she dates Adam, she is not gonna crack because love is what moves her to him, and love always wins.

Behati is awesome with her musical soul… she always understands all music so deeply and knows how to send messages through it 🙂

She’s so very special 🙂

We got later on the feeling the two lovers may have reunited soon… because she was ending her Palm Springs job, and seemingly she was neither returning to New York nor passing over to visit Gene (okay, this is a bit ironic… 😉 sorry ;)).

Boys were stuck in Taiwan/Taipei a day longer after their gig there (and James meeting with Nole Djokovic!!!! whooo 😉 You come after me Jimmy V., sorry, already done ;)) but it seemed not affect Adam and the guys the slightest, because then after we understood Behati (and also the girlfriends/wives/families) would have flown almost at the same time they would and head TO JAPAN!!!!

Yes, because Nihon was the blessed place for the Lovers’ reunion (and now you get the title up there, don’t you?;)).

Before Behati flew to him, Adam got again very happy and you could tell all from his tweets… she just is capable of totally making him SHINE and for that, she is the perfect girlfriend for him.

The most perfect he has ever gotten so far, truly:

they are the cutest thing… Adam and Behati are in love and you all will deal 😉

He was ready to get his Angel back, and nothing in the world could have affected his mood…

He’s so transparent in his feelings… it’s a shame people have been used to play with his heart, but the truth is that anytime he opens up to love, he shines of a likeability which is full of cuteness and tenderness.

He surely felt loved when Behati told him she would have flown crazily for miles and miles JUST TO SPEND A FEW DAYS – and not entirely, because he had work to do – with him.

Maybe you think what Behati has done for him is a little thing but damn, it is NOT!

Nobody has ever done anything like that for Adam in his whole life… EVER!

They were apart merely for three weeks, and in his previous relationship (with someone hilariously some people consider “the one that got away”, but she was so totally not, as she never used to use her time, not even her SPARE time, to be with him… she used generally to be fine with him when that wasn’t getting against her career plans or when being with him was BOOSTING her career plans… especially in the end, let’s say by December 2011 – this pic below is taken then –, when the relationship was dead but she was using him and the fact he was in love with her as PR boosting… evidence from this AWFUL picture at the only Lakers Game Anne and Adam attended together past season, the one where they met Kanye West and where HE WAS LOOKING LOVED UP, but she was looking … for paps – how could I be so blind back then to not reckon what was moving that girl towards him? How could I not see straight that she was just so plain using him and using him a lot? Guess I was really wrong about their link, but then, some kind soul sent me the picture below and some unfiltered reports with more pictures and I opened my eyes on her real persona behind the constant acting she was performing back then – better late than ever I guess ;)) three weeks used to be THE NORMAL TIME OF SEPARATION (EWWWWW), but then back in the Anne era, all was up to be just for the paps so we shouldn’t mind, shall we?:

This is the image of FAKERISM. What a revealing picture… and what a letdown for me, honestly. I used to believe Anne V was at least sincere when she was with Adam through in 2011… but this photo on December 5 2011 speaks more than any of my wrongly directed hopes, as many other pictures of her “behind the scenes” I have been submitted to in these past three weeks do as well. I am glad she never got the ring she wanted and yelled for to get from him, I always was because that pairing had no common ground at all to share, but now I am also for even more reasons, having finally understood that Anne pretty much always was fake to Adam. She was clearly UNWORTHY of Adam’s love, and she awfully used him there only for his fame, to become – barely – known in USA. Karma is a bitch though so no need anymore to even think of her, and I won’t ever again for a single second again in my life (Adam has stopped care about her since way longer, God bless March 2012). PS: Captions are not mine, but I applaud those writing them. They hit the nail of her face and expression PERFECTLY. What a true reveal for me, whom I used to be so positive about this woman. I was clearly wrong in thinking she was nice. CLEARLY WRONG. But ehi, it happens to the best of us, doesn’t it? 😉 I pity the next poor man she will capture with lies and acting to reach a broader fame. Because we all know it will happen, but now this has become completely irrelevant in the part of the world and universe I am interested in, so good riddance, and never cross these paths again, thank you.

In the Behati era instead, not only paps and fake PR set ups are NOWHERE TO BE SEEN, but for the Grace of Above the fact the two lovers were away for three weeks, rather than the norm, was a TRAGEDY (they use to be together all time and prior to this month of September 2012, the most Behati and Adam had been apart was for not even 8 days in a row…) so something had to be done to prevent despair and way too impacting nostalgia.

And no matter the fact she was working, Behati managed to squeeze all her schedule (you will see the details here) and cut a span of five days to be spent with the one SHE LOVES (and man, she undoubtedly does), no matter the tricking terrible trip she had to take to realize this meeting and make it real for both.

Just check this out and you (if you are smart) will understand the degree of Behati’s awesomeness and the level of her love for Adam:

How Behati Loves Adam

And before some of the dumbest ones around will object that maybe Behati is in love, “But Adam is not because he never shows affection for her and blah blah blah -“ know that Adam is VERY MUCH in love with her and when people are blessed to share their PRIVATE space (friends of mine have done in South America and I got words on this Asian stops too, beside words from the Overexposed launch party in New York in June) Adam and Behati are GLUED together, kissing and touching and being the image of love anytime they are together.

Adam even practically unattended James’ birthday because he had to spend time with his love; which is way he was so late in complimenting him for his year of life added on (but then James was having Ali along so he had his hands and heart full anyway 😉 didn’t he?).

He used his last night with her to take her on top of the world of Jakarta and have a romantic (and after that super sexy I bet) night at the wonderful SKYE complex, which gifts you with the most amazing upper view of the city (Adam loves to watch city lights from upper levels in fact)

Adam and Behati are actually completely in love with one another.

It’s not a case if he is always so happy and describes with the best words exactly the stops of the tours where they are together… he did in South America (Brazil especially) and he did again in Japan and he did again right after Jakarta, right after they separated because he had to go to Thailand and she had to get back in USA to work for Victoria’s Secret Big Fashion Show preparations.

He even almost requoted the usual “Shhhhhhh” gesture Behati does adapting it for his first Thai tweet (always remember he is a genius with words)… like he wanted to tell her he was keeping feeling her and her grace all over him still, way after they said bye to one another at the hotel in Jakarta.

Even the newly re-encountered solitude was then treated with a kind of funny spin… and also this type of spirit is something in him Behati’s presence enhances so brightly and continuously.

Behati and Adam in Jakarta October 2012

You don’t see their love displayed by paps through pictures every two steps they take because Behati, unlike some unworthy ones in the past doesn’t call friendly paps to make shots out of her true love (she doesn’t need it, because she is there for the love and not the fame) and she just wants to be with Adam in private, much like Adam has learned on his skin from the past it should actually be always and only, if true feelings are involved and if the link has no other purpose to serve than the happiness of the two sharing the relationship, and not someone’s career impact and growth too.

Their own display of affection haven’t to be public.. and moreover, people should understand a lot of what is “public display of affection” in Hollywood standards and realm is generally borderline adjusted or just plain fake.

One has to be VERY naive to trust anything about relationships which seem to be so right only through the magazines or gossip sites.

More than half of what appears is carefully worked for PR purposes.

Ask anyone who work for the entertainment industry, and you will get a sardonic smile in return.

I tend to trust way more relationships in those amounts when they are not overly publicized or mirrored.

And I sure want and hope Adam and Behati’s one stay this way; the way it has always been… not for strangers eyes to be seen, but only for the two of them and their closest people to be enjoyed and witnessed and most of all PROTECTED.

I hope and fear nothing of artifact-ed and artificial steps into their bond; I am actually NOT HAPPY that Behati shares the Model Management Adam’s ex did; because that Women Agency is ruled by some of the worst famewhores around and Adam shouldn’t endure any of them any longer: he has made them way more important than they should have been and hopefully he has taken notice on how avoid that to be repeated again.

I am sure he has become overly reclusive and protective about himself and Behati also because he knows some of the tenors at Women Management can’t wait to milk him some more.

They have done it for two years after all; but the most beautiful thing about Behati is that she is NOT allowing that and therefore those greedy fuckers have to start to revamp in the dirt like the leeches they are to give some spin to a story that – God bless – is quintessantially private (this story was spun by the worst trash magazine ever, The Examiner – where EVERYONE can post EVERYTHING without checks; so basically all news there are FAKE by default and unchecked – , then reprinted by other news sources and it was about Behati’s mum saying and all those things are obviously FAKE, and only a retarded would believe it… which makes tons of people who have of course… *sigh* It’s really bad when people have the brain of a hamster, but what we can do? Not everyone is smart by default…).

I hate when fake press blasts and involves families; Behati’s parents, much like Adam’s, and their respective families shouldn’t be involved in the fake press fest which seem to surround our poor guys wherever they head to.

Behati’s family is a very religious and peculiar one and nobody shall mess with them; it’s so asinine and horrible to have sent those fake reports to the Examiner and then led other website spin the dirt out of the first fakery shared; I can’t avoid to suspect it was again an evil idea by someone evil from the past, just to spread more hate and fakeness against somebody who doesn’t deserve anything but love and appreciation instead.

But yet I have no proof so I can’t go further down that road of suspects.

I’ll be on alert though, very ready to pinpoint everything that will add some layers of realness to the whole story.

Behati and her Victoria’s Secret Angel Life

Anyway, what it only matters is that Adam is the happiest person in this moment; he can bask in his lovelife, and he now feels that is a priority for someone; he can also find his sexual healing from his ADHD sympthomes constantly – do not kid, that is a serious point in his relationships and it gets way deeper than you can catch if you have not medical acknowledge of his conditions – without having to get refused or frustrated by the not consideration of his significant other; he can basically feel the finest he could hope for.

And all this is Behati’s merit and gift to him..

I trust the words of my insider friends, who claim he is a different person after Behati has come into his life to save him from a true toxic and evil exploiting he had been submitted to prior than she arrived to take him off his miseries.

Behati is there in the background and she is there up for him to make his life perfect and it’s amazing the way she is committed; and I am sure this has touched Adam like NOTHING HAS before her arrival into his life, because before her, nobody really had ever done this much to be so silently and discreetly with him…

And if you think she gets nothing in return for being this awesome you are at fault… because she has the gift to be loved too by one of the most complex, yet fascinating and inspiring human beings she could ever meet.

Uneasy to handle, maybe (surely), but definitely one of those kind of people you are blessed to meet and cross in your life if they decide to share a bit of their souls with you.

People are NOT all the same.

Some are better and most special than others, and whenever you step into the world of some special people… your reward is BE PART OF THAT MOMENT IN LIFE.

If you understand that, the preciousness of it… then it means you are understanding and enriching your life.

Forever.

I don’t know how long this relationship between Adam and Behati will last but surely by now I do wish it will a LOT (my wish means nothing of course… what matters is their WILL, and as long as that is maintained, all will be fine) because I think it’s fruitful, and that it is good for both (Behati seems to me very intelligent so since she stays with him and does a lot for him and she is NOT milking him, it must mean she finds in him a lot too, or she wouldn’t stay and she wouldn’t do for him all she is doing, and constantly).

Adam is in everything a better person right now and also he seems most sparkling than ever and the joy he pours out is always due to his girlfriend.

Behati enhances him so greatly.

Bless you, Namibian Princess of Love.

You have shown him that if you find a worthy person, even with two very great careers people CAN and moreover MUST find their priority the event to be together as always as it is allowed to.

Poor Adam was tricked in believing a model and a musician/tv star/actor/whatever else could not be happy as a couple together because they would not be often together but you, dear Behati, have proven him it was not a matter of jobs; it was a matter of TRUE HEARTS INVOLVED.

Adam ads for Bench in papers

Now he has a true heart involved with him.

Before…

Well, before let’s just say not, and let’s cut the rotten branches away and forever and for good.

Pheeeeew 😉

What a bullet he dodged. 😉

This by the way is some video of some of the images of Late September of Adam and Bee and some rare images of their five and a half days together between Tokio and Jakarta, plus all of the images of Maroon 5 tour from then til the end of the tour in Sydney on Saturday, October 13th.

The songs that are to be heard during the video (Angel by Jimi Hendrix and The Power Of Love by Huey Lewis&The News), again… are not chosen randomly ;).

I am a musical soul too, and pretty HUGE, you know 😉

Again and again then… just after this video and all my words about how amazing the combo Behati and Adam is…

I am not saying that Behati and Adam will get married (he is NOT into marriage, so it will take a miracle for him to marry and he will most definitely NOT doing it while he still active in his career, and CERTAINLY not while the one he might eventually propose will have HER career going on) or that they will be family any soon; what I am saying while I cherish the fact they are NOW a couple is that Behati is ALREADY probably the most fitting girlfriend he has had while being famous, and that CERTAINLY she has ALREADY done for Adam way more than his previous ones ever did in all of their times with him.

Because she acts and does like she is up for HIM and not the perks of being with him, and has already spent all of the possible time (and more actually) with him.

This without EVER asking anything in change; without pressuring him for visibility; always being undercover with him, at the maximum level.

I say this always… but I do because it’s always kind of a shock to realize how pure and true she appears to be.

I’m not used to such amazing-ness in and for famous people… so it hits me a lot, and a lot positively, of course.

But it’s not like I predict ringing bells and coriandoli and stuff… I mean to be clearer…

Just the other day Adam tweeted an answer to Arianna Huffington (THAT Arianna) about a very sensible topic:

Adam Levine and his very serious approach to family matters

If you want to know what the article Arianna Huffington was quoting, here it is… click on this link and get there. AND READ BOTH TAKES.

Read it also from here what Arianna had to say:

Arianna Huffington article Adam Levine responded to

Adam is generally considered a very big manwhore, due to his past full of beautiful girlfriends and to his well known sexual thirsts; somebody not fitting for family and allergic to commitment.

I think he is EXACTLY the opposite of that: he is DEAD serious about commitment, and he is just because his life was marked by the fact his parents split when he was 5.

He has received nevertheless lots of love from both parents and from his enlarged family; he has seen successful people in his parents being able to focus ALSO on family because he has been a very much loved kid (which has helped for him to keep his ego and confidence high even despite his ADHD).

So he has learn by living on himself that:

Super classy Behati Prinsloo HF

1) Marriage doesn’t equal a stable family;

2) Family love doesn’t necessarily need marriage;

3) Love is more important than a ring;

4) COMMITMENT IS THE KEY TO A GOOD FAMILY;

5) BUT TO BE COMMITTED YOU GOTTA PRIORITIZE FAMILY BY GIVING IT YOUR TIME;

6) Hence you have to be willing to find that time and only a few with ongoing careers can;

7) Because in the end Family stays ABOVE career;

8) Until you are not on that wave of prioritizing family over career (or if your significant other isn’t) then it would be WRONG to start a family, because it would be easier to fail at good parenting or at good coupling (a family starts when two people are together even before them being somebody’s parents).

I think this makes Adam DEAD serious about family; he’s honest and moreover real in saying/thinking/believing that with his career ongoing the way it is it wouldn’t be right for him to think he could have the NECESSARY TIME to be a good family man.

In all this, many say then the girls he dates are a waste of time in perspective, just because for a while surely he won’t start families with them.

THIS IS THE BIGGEST IDIOCY THAT I HAVE EVER HEARD.

So… it means in life the ONLY story that will matter is the FINAL one?

Does it means people cannot grow and be happy and share a valuable time of their lives unless that lead to the final stable relationship/family/kids?

Oh man…

Adam Levine arrives in Thailand October 2012

That is SO stupid.

Many of the greatest relationship ever, those that help shape your personality, those which teach you more about yourself and the LIFE and the world and the ongoing miracle of Sex and Love NEVER are the “final” ones…

It’s limiting and stupid and loser-ish to think that the only “Big” Love has to be the one that will take you to the altar (if it will ever happen).

ESPECIALLY if you are a woman… you should cherish the journey of love and sex discovery, and believe me the less you try to force any of that into a ring, the more satisfying and important in the general scheme of your life that experience will become.

I have personally had HUNDREDS (no kidding, and no intentions to brag, even if I could) of lovers; and some of them were never just sex, even if I never said “I love You” to any of them because I didn’t feel that overpowering Love in me; still, the connection with some of these people has greatly helped me developing the true myself; I have grown a lot in being more ME; the full ME, in an unafraid and unfiltered way and I will forever have a special place for these guys/men in my life.

Without them, I wouldn’t have found the only one I have Loved and I love, my Karim, because I would have had no idea for real of what I really WANTED in a man, and in a life companion (and even when I found K., you know it took a LIFE for me to finally say yes at the whole idea of marriage, and that I did because he cared so much, that in the end that was more important than my no need for it, for the simple reason that I was not opposed to it; I was just uninterested in it, which made my will less important than his need for it… – ok, here I have gone quite Aristotelian, but hopefully you got my flow set up in your understanding anyway).

I wouldn’t have become ME without Them, or at least I wouldn’t have THIS WELL.

Life is a journey and a discovery… and whoever will be blessed to inspire LOVE in Adam shall be happy, because for how many days, months, years that would last, that they could share and inspire love in him, that will be an invaluable life experience for them (this of course assuming these girls and women will be TRUE in their professed connection with him; if they will act and be with him just for fame, then of course the only experience they will collect out of Adam will be the number of articles on them coupled… but these kind of proper whores are not part of my digression examples).

Then the day someone will come along that will inspire him the most, and who will prove him that he has found the love he will be secure of and with the most, I am sure he will abandon his career and start the most beautiful of families, but not before he will feel that time has arrived for him; not before he will feel he has yet to do something with his career; not before the time will come when he won’t feel any regret in stopping his career (because he was born to DO SOMETHING IMPORTANT with his life, something inspiring for others, and he FEELS that in his bones; only creative people can understand how DEEP that need of expression is, and he has it and it wouldn’t be fair for him to overlook that, because if he would, then it would come the time for regret after a while and regrets are something awful to live with, especially when being as sensitive as Adam is).

Lovely Behati in her NY space

I have NO DOUBTS that a family of himself will happen because he wants that.

He’s just not hypocrite to play with such an important concept, just because everybody does.

THIS is Adam: remember he didn’t want to have his Bar Mitzvah as a teen Jew because not being fully convinced of the depths of his religion he found trivial and horrible to do it without truly believing in the inmost part of the step, just to receive gifts.

THIS is Adam.

A kid, and now a man, who was always way deeper than his detractors (and sadly a wide chunk of his retarded “fans”, so basic and shallow they cannot process a basic thought at all, let alone his complicated, intertwined, so full of linkers and inspirational ones…) assume him to be.

ESPECIALLY on deep matters, Adam Levine is one of the most interesting, brilliant, profound people you might ever get to talk with.

Too bad 95% of people who interact with him only would care about having sex with him, and never hear him speak at all.

What a waste (and look, I can PERFECTLY get why people would love to sex him up, not saying that isn’t a valuable plus with him… I just say that isn’t the only thing people shall chase after, no matter how sexy the One Above has shaped him to be).

Okay…

Now that I have spoken about important topics (because that is an important one to me… I feel so near to his feelings on family stuff; I feel like I need to be an advocate of some sort for his take on life and sex and people and love and exchanges… people are quick to judge but they never really know what they are talkin’ about when they label him just as a playboy, failing to witness that he may be, but he is still on the quest for that something while sexing it up left and right and BELIEVE ME – because I have done that too – sexing the world up may be exactly what you need to do to finally find THE PERFECT match for you. Then if you don’t like sex…. I am sorry for you. You miss the sparkle and sugar and colors of life. Too bad, and of course you won’t be able top get any of my views – or Adam’s – about these topics… so what you’re doing in my pages after all? ;))

Anyway Adam isn’t the only one who got cake out of the trip to Tokio and Jakarta… because it was a reunion for all the guys with their families and girlfriends.

James also had  his Ali (Tamposi) flying to him for his birthday time and in fact Ali and bee seem to really enjoy each other too (not surprisingly).

Everyone is so happy in Maroon 5 camp and I love to imagine the guys really well coupled because this takes away all the stress of a not so easy life on the road and not only.

Musicians are complicated types… they need love, but not to get frustrated or stressed about it.

Then it helps that when you are in Jakarta for gigs and it happens your lovers are there… you ALSO have as a host for food one of the best chefs in the world (Italian, of course)that is always a GREAT plus isn’t it? 😉

Adam is easily loved by so many different people by the way His longlasting friends, famous or not, adore and protect him like Knights… and that’s all that is important for him to have: true people around himself; but to be LOVED BY HIM takes a lot; he’s intense human being… and being him special, it will take a super special person to be able to pair him up.

For this reason, and being myself happy that the world seems now aware how special Adam is, I post a truly AWESOME article from the awesome HelloGiggles site, quoted from TwentySomething (a site so cool that it will get a tv show about it, true fact).

Although it sadly refers many times to The Fuckery That Karaoke Show That Thing (I still hate the concept of reality “talent” competitions, sorry…), I had to post and make you read it because this is TRULY Adam (okay, they downplay the immense sexytude of Mr.Levine being early twenties/teens but that doesn’t matter… when you add the Sex Factor which in him is like the maximum level you just get a perfect human Male specimen to worship, and that’s exactly what he is… a substantial wonderful man) and this piece of writing is awesome as well and its style is amazing (hat off to the writer, really):

Hello Giggles . Com knows that Adam Levine is Perfect

The Quest for his Heart still open… and it’s an exciting quest to see developing all along.

Behati so far is performing AMAZINGLY in the race, and I am very happy that at the moment she OWNS it.

She really has a wonderful edge, and she is doing everything she must and it feels like she does it very naturally.

Nothing’s assured… but this is already a GOLD&DIAMOND relationship she has gifted him with.

For this… already thank you Bee 🙂

While we are on (somehow) the hated subject of that tv thing that keeps give the guys immense popularity but which keeps making me cringe for eras Adam’s commitment with the singing thing I have to inform you that the taping for the FOURTH installment will begin in three days (hear me cry).

You know how I was happy this third season would have been the last with the original line-up, meaning that Adam would have been freed from it?

THINK AGAIN.

Because since allegedly the ratings are ALL about Adam (and Blake Shelton) the line up yes, it will change… but them two will stay and in place of Cee-Lo Green and Christina Aguilera (whom now claims to be ready to miss Adam… yeah sure...) there will be Usher (really? more inflated ego on the run…) and Shakira (Shakira is cool instead and that she will also be there after Billie Joe Armstrong, Mary J and Adam being there KILLS me… why Shakira? Tu QUOQUE???) replacing the two departing judges/coaches/WhateverTheyCallThemselvesLike.

Blind Auditions for The Voice 4 starts October 2012

This means essentially two things:

1) Adam will become richer&more popular than he ever imagined to;

2) Maroon 5 tours and gigs will still be an organization mess – especially in Europe;

3) Record number 5 (which will see the return of ADORED JESSE, as he has JUST confirmed) will take place in the year 2021 (not really, but you get me).

AAAARRRGGHHH!!!!!! -_-

Not only that, but the more that thing goes on, the more Adam gets involved with the outputs of it, since he’s now signing to his label the contestant he mentored...

STOP IT!

Think of your band before!!!

I know he does anyway… it’s just that really I hate reality shows with my whole being.

I do.

The guys are really prepping up for this strange idea of Daylight video… I still can’t wait for the video of The Man Who never Lied instead because I got submitted of even more shots of Valerie Van Der Graaf (she is from Select Model Management like Behati used to – partially – and like Bregje Heinen… what’s up with the link with Select Models for Maroon 5 videos? Somebody has links maybe? LOL ;)) and MY OH MY!!! she is got a KILLER body hasn’t she?

Those boobs are everything, honestly (you know I love myself but you also know I have a fondness for the things I can’t call mine and big boobs are definitely that 😉 and Valerie HAS them… wowza if she hasn’t!):

Valerie Van Der Graaf – TMWNL lady interest – has a body to die for

But as I said for a while more Maroon 5 will be all into the sweet blandness quietness of Daylight, so take this mash up of all the videos for the Daylight Project callout:

I have to say I keep saying things about The Man Who Never Lied video basing myself on that picture surfaced of the ciak of it… I HOPE it is true and that Valerie and Adam haven’t actually a small acting for the Daylight video because that would NOT please me.

I want TMWNL as a single; Daylight to me is a little mess as a project, and it doesn’t surprise me that Maroon 5 have had to extend the deadline for submission and extend it internationally… somehow they forget to remember the core fanbase is femalish and not exactly “indie/alternative/creatively” oriented.

Maroon 5 fans are not really that on the edge to be able to produce a lot of such creative material as the one requested for the video (and certainly NOT in such a short time).

But ehi… it’s not the first time they fuck up a video, so in case it happens, we are all prepared (Hands All Over anyone? or Runaway? I can go on and on…).

I want especially Lucky Strike as a single but I sense no way about that.

They’ll waste the best pop gem on the album much like they did with Stutter in Hands All Over… sigh… (by now the crew is almost positive about the insane decision… *sigh again*)

I need some spookiness now so take this feature of Entertainment weekly about AHS, and also this little image of Evan Peters (amazing actor) attached to a roof in the episode he stars in (I guess before Bloody Face rips his beautiful skin off? who knows 😉 Adam’s face for sure is gonna ripped off from the serial killer or at least his tattoed arm, poor baby):

“Kit” gets roofed in AHS still

And now the EW collage out of the magazine:

American Horror Story EW feature – September 2012 – ASYLUM

And now what everybody awaits for…

THE TRAILER WITH ADAM IN IT (what a bad bad idea to have sex there, Adam ;)…):

But MOST IMPORTANTLY…. Take the first 5 minutes of the opening episode and just get in lust with Adam and Jenna… oh! I have no problem believing (knowing actually) that those kinks are nothing compared to true Adam’s ones ;).

The funny thing is that those days of filming Behati was there around… girl is REALLY confident.

I hope and think also she will be here next to him on his home couch when they will watch the tv on October 17th 😉 so she will keep his hand during the scary scenes (lol!):

Anyway, time to put some of the pictures of Behati I am loving the most so far up for grabs.

One of the recent features that I have TOTALLY adored (and you know it from one of my previous posts too) was for sure the You Magazine (of Daily Mail… which explains maybe why they are always so interested in Behati + Adam at that newspaper…) is for instance this one shot by Robert Reed where Bee really looks as flawless as my adored Natalia Vodianova.

Enjoy her perfection, and admire how she can turn amazingly CLASSY too:

Behati Prinsloo by Robert Reed for YOU Magazine UK Sept 2012

But you all know what I love in Behati is really her amazing personality… so even if this video has an awful audio and moreover even if it comes from CRIMINAL FAUX Fox News (???? take the word “news” very loosely, right? More like “Fox creative fake indoctrination” if any…) take a look and hear her shine, and make your assumptions on how REALLY she is so similar to her boyfriend Adam (the more I watch her in action, the more I fall for them together):

I also want to make you WELL AWARE of the talent she has for modeling, and her flawlessness look-wise.

This is some Fashion Tv Model Profile of Behati back when she was starting. Here she is THE MOST AWESOME 17 years old you could cross… please admire her body, her strut, her GORGEOUS PERFECT FACE, her impressively perfect legs… and realize she has done in modeling ALL already; she doesn’t need any rise of her profile cos she is from the very start a super accomplished model who’s now (just because she can, being a VS ANGEL UNDER CONTRACT) just selective with her stuff to be done because she doesn’t need to be all over the place to bring home paycheck like some desperate others are forced to.

Anyway… this is lovely Behati in a more than 25 minutes video from Fashion Tv back in 2006/2007/2008 (man she’s perfectly beautiful… and her sexy voice is YUMMY):

This medley I have personally made instead shows some of her NUMEROUS High Fashion stuff back from her starts, when she was not a VS Angel yet so she had more time (and need as well) to pursue her career in fashion through editorials, catwalks and covers (because she got them too and when she was easily a teenager you know… like for instance this cover of Vogue Russia in February 2007 when she was not even 18):

Behati Prinsloo covers Vogue Russia February 2007. Not even 18, already perfect 😉

But okay, okay… I promised you a video medley… so there you go, take it ;):

And while we are on it, this is the full video for Seafollytalking about body perfection (this is now) and the fact she is accomplished enough to SELECT the things she wants to do.

This are the pictures…

Collage of a sexy beauty. Behati Prinsloo for Seafolly.

And this is the long edited video instead…

Bask in Behati’s beauty and sexyness, and then just praise her rightfully like they do at Guysm site, and if you keep deny she is just amazingly looking (but the best part about her is that she is just a wonderful PERSON with GLORIOUS PERSONALITY) then go check your taste because it clearly sucks… ;):

Then take the medleys of two of her latest campaigns… the one for NEXT (Fall winter 2012/2013… she was shooting the one for Spring Summer 2013 right before joinng Adam in Japan, see before ;)):

And the super classy one for Peter Hanh Couture, which she just rocks (anytime she goes classier and more adult she just becomes more increasingly perfect… her face is SO wonderful! I can’t! Even her very unperfect teeth seem just ok & full of personality in such a breathtaking combination of bold facial features):

Now back to the SUPER SEXY (but always with a spunk of vitality and liveliness which make hernot a poser and never trying hard till the point to become stiff and unnatural or fake), take this slightly NSFW amazing commercial of Behati for Princesse Tam Tam Lingerie (campaign 2012) which I always did find awesome.

Her body so slick and lean but also curvy is to die for.

Her legs are perfection and SHE’S GOT A ROUND ASS!!! And hips.

That ASS!!! Behati’s rear view is SO drool-worthy… I bet Adam cannot get enough 😉 (ehi, we know what his fav position is ;))

So basically a real body of a woman, and not a cutboard all equal from chest to waist to hips 😉

She’s such a pretty, sexy little thing (well, she’s 1,79 – 5’11” so really NOT any little but you get me ;)):

Happy with the sexy?

Because I am sure next time there will be even more ;).

How many times we will spot Bee on Adam’s Harleys for instance in this break among us guys?

Because one thing is for sure, Adam will use his four Harleys as he’s back in Los Angeles for a long while

And Behati will surely be there a lot of days and always as soon as she can be by Adam’s side, she WILL BE.

Because supermodel friends are awesome, but nothing comes close to a lover when you get one, and especially THAT one she did ;):

Candice and Behati in Candice’s candid (okay it’s resounding ;))

Let her do her work, and then she will surely be by his side, with all of her love to make him shine, and get her shine on too.

His bandmates also better not mock things she loves 😉 because she’s not one to stay silent you know 😉 (I love that in her).

Read also about it here (this is very recent… oh, and the bikes he speaks about to remake is the one he is with Milo, of course).

Adam Levine Harley Davidson Lover October 2012

Now it’s time for me to pack stuff again (this post may have come out completely scattered, but again it ain’t easy to write something so filled with bites and then pay actual attention to work and chat in three languages with the rest of the globe. I was in fact dried off ;)) and after my well deserved time I had post work to cheer my Swifty (these two days in row because then he will miss me for a while) it’s also time to get ready to finally go at Marghe‘s house this evening to enjoy little Eva and be all “Auntie Z.” to my precious granddaughter (in fact we are planning the baptism thing).

I am trying to fast reading this I have written today and check if all links are working as I literally put shoes on (comfortable shoes because we stay in at Marghe’s and these are my fav kind of nights with her: our hubbies will be all talking male-ish and we will just be our maximum level female-ish while glorifying ourselves in little precious Eva 😉 ).

Hope you guys will have an amazing time in between this post and my next one ;).

Hope also that when I come back from the States (time reduced in online activity, because of family rules and the security crap…) I will be able to say that I spent a wonderful Halloween there 😉

I am reaching and pushing and shoving I know…

But I am used to get what I want.

Always 😉

So…

Gotta work it out starting from before the start, even 😉

Bye world… catch you soon 😉

Missus 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:

and also this at your ease:

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.

Adam Levine and Anne V: love is in the air, Dec 21, 2010 - 3

Then the game of shame… but they are so beautiful, even the awfulness at Staples gets cleared by their shine:

Adam Levine and Anne V: love is in the air, Dec 21, 2010 - 4

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)

One of Thanxsgiving centerpieces at Karim's parental house in Manhattan, November 2010

Some days, a lot of fun, a lot of food and – also – some good working days later (it feels incredibly cool to go to working meetings in Manhattan… really… I was so happy to hang down there with Brian and the guys I didn’t even mind that was takin away half of my GREAT Black Friday shopping, or the whole almost of the subsequent Saturday!), we’re back to the usual and nice routine, working in a freezy, sometimes snowy Milan and waiting for the GREAT Lady Gaga gig this incoming Sunday AND also the amazing Scala Première with Wagner.

Actually to prepare for that, I was spending reading hours in New York – still do it now that I’m back home – checking again the Eddan (in Swedish of course, with English text aside) and that, like it always happen, easily lead me to read for about the 13th time the whole of Lord Of the Rings (that in English and in Italian too… I love his style in all languages).

I actually read all Tolkien every December (and for every Tolkien I mean everything ever published under his name), because it feels very… fireplace&frosty related to me.

And then he’s one of my favorite writers ever.

Back to the USA days, it was great to spend this holiday finally getting… into it.

Talkin about good things in bed... Adam Levine, IWBSBL booklet offshots

Karim’s family is obviously very keen to these traditions, but it was honestly a shining family time that I totally felt complete part of.

Oh… and their house in Manhattan is insane.

Wow.

We were planning to check more apartments while there but then the Black Friday shopping took us quite over (always after work though) so in the end we went checking stuff only a bit the first two days (and trust me… on Wednesday chaos in the roads was so huge we didn’t really put our best efforts there at all).

We are in contact with the people we need anyway so some more chances for a check will arise soon.

I will have to fly newly to New York soon anyway.

We have a couple of ideas, but since the prices there are nuts, we will wait for something that WE REALLY LOVE.

Okay that we have money, but this doesn’t mean we like to throw them away uselessly.

Modesty is the key to a healthy life balance.

When back in Italy my first stop were Swifty and mum&dad…

At evening, that we spent with them, we watched the last episode of the awesome Vieni Via Con Me and this was my fav part of it all (the whole show was as usual fantastic):

Really, the list of great Italians‘ things made me drop my jaw off by amazement (Roby Baggio!!! Pasolini!!! Benigni!!! So deserved :)!) and then the list of Tobagi‘s daughter just made me cry.

Today our Country is in dismay but hopefully Berlusconi will end his shameful and disgustive run and presence soon enough.

Farewell, Mario Monicelli The Great

Sadly, just during the show we learnt that Mario Monicelli took off his own life to not being submitted to another’s will about when he was his due time.

We’ve lost the true Father of the best Italian Comedy.

On Tuesday evening Karim and I watched a marathon of some of his greatest movies and we plan to keep on all week long.

Rest In Peace, you genius.

Italy misses yet another true artist and a vitriolic, yet deep and senseful insight on its cracks and beauties, something that each youngster around should get educated into and at and throughout.

Karim shed a tear learning of him passing away.

I did too.

We come writing after a back to back sleepless nights because both on Tuesday and Wednesday games were around 2 am.

Adam and Anne at Lakers vs Bulls. NOW LOOK HIS TROUSERS. They're... erm... not fully zipped up? 😉 Did they had a quickie after the NBA Fan Of The Week interview? 😉

Considering on Wednesday we went out with the lab crew and we arrived home at 1 am… let’s just say in the past two days we haven’t slept much.

Also because Lakers did not really facilitate that (*rolls eyes*)…

I hope these days of zero sleep won’t compromise my incoming weeks of fun…

It’s just that you know me… I never say NO to fun and friends; I never say NO to live music; I never say NO to my sport passions; I never say NO to anything that I feel passionate about.

And you also know that when any of these things don’t exactly go my way, I need raw Sexual Healing to let the frustration go.

That of course happens especially with Sport stuff (because really, I never experienced any frustration in the other departments in my whole life, thank God!)

Therefore if you  try to decode my message above, through witness of the Lakers… You get that there have been a certain number of occasions recently when I had to rely on my favorite anti-stress therapy.

Not that I lament a thing there, but still..

I hope in a stopping of the reasons I have to turn to that kind of safety for my soul for ;).

Never forget. Aids Still Kill.

I also take this good occasion to remind you all that yesterday it was World Aids Day, and beside the fact Coldplay finally released for Red One new music to celebrate the occasion (nice song, but not earth-shattering, still you all should buy it because it’s for a very worthy cause), I also felt the need to point out all charities that were available.

Aids still kill.

Please, don’t ever forget it and never stop to help those in need about it.

Please.

Do it.

Okay… I tried to postpone but you know it’s coming don’t you?

You must be trained about my way to compose posts here by now 😉

Let’s get into sport asap (even though this time at least the first sporty bite intertwines FORCEDLY with Divine Adam and lovely Anne’s chronicles… and you will see why very soon ;)) and let’s start from where I stopped last time, therefore with the awesome win against finally a worthy opponent…

Take a look at Lakers takin over Chicago Bulls:

In the picture you’ve seen enlightened by a heart (I know, it’s cheesy… AND I love it ;)) Adam and Anne witnessing the amazing Mamba scoring…

Kobe shots, Adam and Anne Watch

Adam and Anne arrive at Staples for Lakers vs Bulls 23Nov2010

Later on in the chronicles of them you will see how Adam was featured in the NBA Fan Of The Night segment that day, and how… they arrived and stayed and left in their amazing November 23th together.

Man I love those kids together 😉

But now let’s go on… Because happy times in LakerNation kinda stopped there practically, for a long (way too long) while.

There’s so much more you need to learn about and they are a bit of gloomy stories sadly.

Not all shines in Laker Land nowadays…

Contrariwise we are hitting quite a rough patch and we must gather back forces and strengths and focus somehow.

Quickly.

Here are the demises chronicles until today (can’t imagine it can go on any further… but then, you never know).

On the Black Friday (Black for real) Lakers went to Utah to battle the Jazz, and this is what happened:

I therefore expressed my frustration by sexing it up with Karim downtown Manhattan.

Adam and Anne watchin Lakers Chicago Bulls on 23th November 2010

We had a blast.

Yes, he allowed me to play (that way you read about in the previous post) so that after we had the best Sexual Healing therapy… EVER.

I hope Adam and Anne performed something similar because he surely had to feel raging after just moments before our UNFORGIVABLE loss  he (like me) had the feeling as usual Kobe (in much Kobe Mode, but still our only Saviour when needed) would have amended for the whole rest of the team (and of the bench) which was unwatchable for large parts of the game.

But no… it ended in loss, which will be really useful afterwards anyway (this is the only way I can look at it…).

It must work so, right?

Gotta put things in a certain perspective.

Then just when we were coming back home, Lakers took their way back home to fight the drizzly Indiana Pacers, and this is what we witnessed (we did some hours later, but there you go) along the whole of Laker Nation:

I was shocked when, landing (LATE) in Malpensa on Monday morning, I got straight that we did lose that TOO!!!

I was really… WTF???

Kobe scores for the 105th time +40 points and we manage to LOSE HOME??

Adam Levine and Anne V attend Lakers vs Pacers game on 28th of November 2010

Again on Sunday???

That rang lots of bells…

Poor Adam and Anne (there again too, but not in the usual places… if it weren’t for Mash sending me straight a Divine A + Sweet Fairy A candid shot from Staples, I would have thought they weren’t there…) allegedly had to perform more Sexual Healing too?

I know Karim and I after watchin the game on taxi on our way back from Malpensa to Milan… DID.

Yep.

We met at lunch time at my lab and just had it in my keyed out little resting room.

*HOT*.

Still… “Lakers… WTF????” was the thought constantly struck on my mind.

If I only knew how I were not even half into pain mode…

I upload blog today and I didn’t neither on Monday nor Tuesday (nor actually Wednesday) evening cos my only blogging time after the demise was of course meant to be a stop (well, TWO actually) in the Lakers Blog.

On Wednesday though, the dinner out prevented me from writing there and in so many ways it was better because You’ll see the unthinkable happened.

Adam and Anne at Lakers Vs Bulls - Nov 23 2010

AGAIN.

I had to mourn with the Family, which I dearly missed in those far away New York days, and I did during latest chat also.

But ehi, for feeling part of an American family I had to follow traditions and it would have felt awkward to say at a certain point: “excuse me ya’ll, got to take my time and spotty-blog a bit” ;)…

I am sure they would have allowed me (they are from Cali after all and they all support Lakers, so…) but honestly in that atmosphere I never really felt like I wanted even to ask.

I was feeling so into family time I let it go (and you can understand how much that means in my world ;)).

So after the double demise, Lakers traveled to Memphis to match up again lil Brother Marc Gasol’s Grizzlies and yes, THIS is what happened (hold yourself… PLEASE):

I WAS SHOCKED AND SHAKED.

Adam and Anne witnessing Lakers vs Bull, 23 Nov 2010

Wow, how awkward, and not usual for me about my adored Purple & Gold Knights.

And the worst thing was that during the last few seconds I was again feeling we wouldn’t have made it.

I felt clearly we weren’t there to feel any lucky or mighty.

Last year instead I was always feeling we were there to subvert the impossible.

Grrr.

But don’t fail yourself: we’ll win this Ring too.

And these hard moments will lead us exactly there.

Mark My Words.

After a resounding Three Losses Streak, this past night we faced Houston Rockets at their home:

Yes… I know… YOU CAN’T BELIEVE IT.

Oldie of Adam witnessing 2008 Lakers Playoffs

I actually can, and that is what makes the whole situation really strange for me.

But as I said, I’m sure we’ll bounce back.

I AM SURE OF IT.

Okay… now it’s time for a lot (and I mean LOT) of cuteness, because after such a gloomy unhappy break we all need it, but especially I DO.

Especially because looks like there’s a lot of people coming round after two days ago CBS broadcasted the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2010, showing Adam and the boys cheering on Anne multiple times and therefore raising the question that yesterday made “Adam’s Levine Girlfriend” the most popular Google topic (WOW!!).

Adam and Anne. Gosh... when they smile together sun shines brighter. SOOOO Beautiful they are.

Of course straight after that there started swirling up uncontrolled and idiot news about them being ready to marry or even already expecting a child (PLEASE!!! She’s a model… She won’t feather a baby any quick… though I truly hope they will procreate sooner than later because they’re so beautiful their kids would be SPARKLING) and hilariously some of the pictures of Anne were actually of Angela or of Becky (?? how such shorties could model in catwalks??) and even Maria Sharapova (oh, boy… Internet pics databases… the hell of the unawares… ;)!).

Is it that strange to do some decent web researches before writing idiocities?

Luckily over here we got them together from the very first start… and actually from that first stroll, somebody shared even this link (yep, February 19th, 2010 in Los Angeles… but that was just the first time that month they allowed people to catch them up, as the whole thing started as you know after February 10th…)

Fact is they are blissfully happy together though and surely I wish them all those steps as soon as they’ll like to take them.

his gloriously beautiful smile

But leave them alone… let them be.

They’re a wonderful sight together… no other couple ever pleased me so much that I wasn’t personally a friend of. 😉

I have the whole of the VSFS (and you gotta check from start to end because they keep appearing…) but it comes at the end, because as you know I post things in chronological order here 😉

Lots of videos (and the whole of Taratata) coming today… Literally HOURS of videos. 😉

Before following the timing trail of greatness, let’s step back with a lil LOVELY interview with MICKEY!!! It was released while they were in Amsterdam on November 17th (check previous post) and since I LOVE when Mr. Madden speaks, I put it up straight.

Mickey speaks on papers or radios so rarely, sure it did deserve some kind of highlight here 🙂

Read it and enjoy ;):

Mickey Madden speaks!!! Whooo 😉

After this, and always while we are in “recap” and “trackback” mode, take finally the whole available of Maroon5 RDS Showcase (November 2010) which is not the whole setlist, because the whole setlist was THIS ONE:

the whole RDS setlist

But okay, what you will hear still adorable.

This are the songs in My treatment of layout (it’s one after another, okay?):

And then the interview they did, which I left as it is on the RDS site. Enjoy:

While we’re at tracking back the performances that were just described in past post, it’s now the time to put up the UK Lottery Draw excerpts (order? my friend Marghe signaled me the bites but I’m not sure I put all in order correctly) with Gethin Jones.

Adam is seriously fantabulous there.

Sex on legs. Always.

That was a lot right? And we haven’t even started! 😉

Let’s get back to the start from just where we left, the day of Anne and Adam reaching back Los Angeles (of course together.. and they’ve spent a lot of time together this November… awwww the supercuteness indeed!).

7 days of hotness in Mr. Levine's shape

Adam could barely hold himself thinkin of what he would have done on Wednesday, because sure his first Lakers game live this season was a treat, but so was the Conan O’Brien show.

He adores comedy, you know.

But before that, Maroon5 let us know that the same Wednesday France tv would have aired the episode of Taratata the guys did actually record back in September (check this post about it… it was when Adam and Anne finally re-met in Paris after a month apart… ;)).

I think the whole show and the interview was AMAZING…

Especially the lovely part in the interview where Adam, after the interviewer was asking him about his dozens of female conquers, and if that about him had changed at all, he just pointed out his girlfriend was there (awww… “petite amie”… sounds so lovely in French).

Check this LONG video of the whole Taratata, and sorry if you don’t know French

You must learn it (so should Adam, but we all know he’s way too lazy to try it ;)… Jesse maybe just forgot it 😉 right?) in order to decode the special video montage during the show.

Beside the live of Maroon5 songs, there is also the duet of Bang Bang with K’naan of course.

Enjoy, folks… it’s long and totally awesome;):

Error
This video doesn’t exist

Another totally awesome thing from the Taratata special is the final video request by Adam and Jesse, showing us and reminding us how much Mr. Levine adored/adores one of my iconic bands, Oasis (still mourn that they split, and I am overexcited that Noel is RECORDING!!!! Whooo-hooo!).

When he gets thoughtful in pictures... I love the vibe entirely.

This is nothing that should surprise us and in fact, transcended by empathy about the request, I just created a video with 170 pictures of Adam and the guys (and Adam and Anne somewhere to0), some drawings of Karim, and put in Maroon 5 covers of Oasis’ Don’t Look Back In Anger – sorry for the radio audio quality – and Hello, from Live On Friday The 13th. Then I closed it with a real Oasis jam ;).

Thought it was better than an anonymous YouTube video… Enjoy ;):

Awww 😉

While they were moving from London to LA, it appeared the list of their World tour, encompassing among the rest Australia, Indonesia, Santo Domingo, Porto Rico (check their website, okay?).

I also found this interview that I quite liked:

The morning after their arrival back in Los Angeles, Adam and Anne became very chatty, letting us step into their world together.

I still appalled anytime Adam quotes classic albums, a too wide majority of his “fans” don’t get a clue about it.

What a bunch of illiterate idiots folks…

The times he must shake head had to be countless with some people (Sticky Fingers is one of the most iconic Rolling Stones Album, you darn mo**ns… Fans like you are better being lost than taken…Geez).

Anne V for SS 2011 Louis Vuitton Campaign (the one she shot in mid September in Capri) 😉

Talkin about music, then, that day Adam actually went to a studio (Henson one again?) to record a collaboration that he wasn’t sharing details of, but that gave him “Very Positive Feelings”.

Can’t wait to know/hear about it!!!!

The morning after, we further step into lovely Adam and Anne shine of mutual love.

They woke up and she tweeted this:

Anne wakin up in Adam's house in LA, 23 november 2010

And then this… (awww, I just can’t cope with so much… I’d squeeze them like two teddy bears…):

awww... he made himself breakfast for her... so adorable 😉

After which he replied so (weeks earlier he was debating with his friends how much his eggs were best eggs ever… ;)) to her:

best couple ever. god bless them.

I feel all kind of butterflies about them.

I have rooted for them straight… the very first sight I caught of Adam smiling for her THAT open way, she conquered me.

And you know which fix I have with Mr. Levine… but she’s like… a person you cannot hate onto.

Too gracious… and so beautiful.

Adam mini collage plus

They’re completely perfect for one another…

So much, that when Adam left to go to rehearsal for the Conan show of that day (the show is recorded during daytime to be broadcasted at late evening, ad it’s taped in Burbank, so he had to move quickly after that breakfast), and she took some parking/driving lessons in the maintime, the fact that she hummed one of HIS cars in the process was certainly forgiven by him.

How eras change!! 🙂

We all know how much Adam loves his cars, and everything that is “motor” related so the fact she can even crash them is a perfect measure of how much he loves her, in fact.

When the reharsal became backstage, and after Anne of course joined her beau, Maroon 5 taped their performance (awesome) and so, as you expect, you can actually watch it here.

I actually loved Hart Hanson‘ (Bones creator) tweet at Adam about the outfit he would have worn during the show (yep, it is a reference to what you’ve seen in the previous post), but then he was dressed.

TIGHTLY (oh, man…).

Enjoy ;):

As you know, after the taping of Conan Adam and Anne went to the Lakers vs. Chicago Bulls basketball game.

Adam was very happy to finally check his first Lakers game of the year LIVE, (you’ve seen the pictures up), but another thing that made him happy, and his lady VERY proud and sharing as well, was that he actually also went interviewed for the NBA Fan Of the Week show.

AWESOME… Check it (isn’t he so totally amazing? Oh dear… too bad after that game he had to suffer what we all Lakerholics did… from the stars to stables… but we’ll get back up to starred sky soon, no question!)

After that we learnt once more about Adam (and Anne’s there agreeing too) passion for sushi; I love that he loves mostly Italian and Japanese food (well, when he doesn’t go junk food, which it happens pretty often… if he hadn’t that metabolic fastness he possesses, he would be obese ;)), because… well, I’m Italian with a Japanese crush ;).

Obviously.

Anne V for Sports Illustrated. Wouldn't you allow her as well everything? 😉

The Thursday it was Thanxgiving.

Such an important family time you know.

Adam acknowledged well, and openly, how much he has to be thankful for.

Doesn’t go difficult to catch what (and WHO) was making him particularly grateful in those hours.

I really enjoyed to think that the two lovers were together that day especially.

As you can see, Anne’s just so simple, adorable, truly down to Earth type of girl and she totally sounds and appears as the perfect companion for Adam.

She is that kind of woman who can keep a man, especially when a bit messy, in line with tenderness and plus she can make him laugh (because she can be as cutely dorky as actually also Adam gets very often).

Then of course, being looking as a Fairy Goddess, she has all other qualities any man could ask for, hasn’t she?

The day after Thanxgiving, while they were about to enjoy last hours together (for that week span ;)), Adam tweeted something that some of his fans found strange or unexpected:

Wasn't crystal clear he has it?

He's just chemically&physically unique. Naturally.

Adam’s ADD is certainly a bland form of it, but in many many ways, anyone observing him, or getting how much hyperactive and rebellious he naturally is can understand how some of his fascinating, unique antics come also from the way that disorderly attention plays within him.

I am sure no one thinks he is strange or anything… his symptoms are actually very much in line with TONS of other artists’ ones, and he is such a greater cutie due to those sides of his behavior, it’s hard to picture him with a dysfunction, rather than with a flamboyant persona that has nothing border-ly about it (and to me, there’s nothing border-ly about him) .

His gorgeousness doing yoga. A very slow activity, that re-balances system.

Many of the best musicians, actors, play-writers, and a fair majority of past centuries most prolific and genius poets were clearly ADD subjected.

I am a chemist and a biologist and to me that side of Adam is just a sign Nature wanted him special and peculiar.

And then we get to enjoy his totally off the way sitting down style 😉

I’m sure you understand why he NEEDS to be a musician and also why he enjoys the focusing of yoga that much; you probably also get why he’s so impulsive and sexually charged (that is an often related need of ADD people, too), and maybe also why he finds the slowing down power of pot that intriguing (I won’t ever follow him there, but he doesn’t kill anyone with that).

His fast mind slowing down helps him to relax: therefore anything that holds that power is a healing gift for him.

Again… in all of his lyrics you can guess about these dynamics… well, if you’re smart enough and educated enough at least.

I thank above for creating such a lovely man, so full of talent, so that he could turn his uniquely chaotic self into an uniquely inspiring master to many people out there.

Anyway, enough of this (I still appalled on how much ignorant about life topics some of his “fans” are… how could they not get he could have easily been a subject of that? It ain’t such a deal, get over it…) and back to the last hours the two lovers could spend together in Los Angeles before having to move to the East Coast for different working tasks.

Too bad Lakers really did not help them in feeling too quiet… but then maybe they just enjoyed to sex the disappointment up after (Karim and I surely did 😉).

Surely as per usual Adam gets the most romantic and lyrical when he’s with Anne.

And as per usual, his native town truly sets him up for being the best he can be.

Check also LA Magazine December about it if you can:

LA Magazine Dec. 2010

Past that night, he let us know he was heading to Nashville openly; Anne was instead bound to reach Savannah, for what we did learn the days after was a photo session for Ralph Lauren.

How Awesome!!!

Ralph Lauren = Totally Cool.

 

her grace is undeniable

Airport time always makes Adam chatty, and he did also because Anne’s flight was prior two abundant hours compared to his.

He then teased us up.

A lot.

I love his way to be sexually charged 24/7.

I so do.

Adam in December is also featured in Rolling Stone, because he shared his Fav 10 List (about the Police ;)):

Adam shares his unbound Police Love with Rolling Stone Mag

James instead is gracing Premier Guitar Magazine:

Props up 😉

Also interesting is this auction that goes up in December for the Grammy Foundation… if you don’t know what to get for Xmas ;):

As they landed in Nashville, Maroon 5 met straight some legend.

Anne's second outfit (my fav!!)

I was thinkin they were there at the CMT Artist Of The Year Awards to honor Lady Antebellum by that point… you will see in a while I was wrong.

Also, it seems that Adam keeps being very inspired about writing lately (who wouldn’t be in his shoes…), this regardless of places or weather actually.

While being apart, on that 30th of November, Adam and Anne had to think about how to list their tv watching.

Because that same day, Cbs was broadcasting finally the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, while on another channel the third season finale of Sons Of Anarchy was on.

You know they’re both SOA freaks… but of course they both wanted to watch VSFS first.

You know that I have the whole show…

And now is actually the time to let you see it.

So, enjoy beauty.

Think that Adam is shown four and plus times, from the start till the very end, and Anne has three highlights too.

They are absolutely wonderful… truly best part of the show was to see how in love these two are…:

Error
This video doesn’t exist

Anne though, in between cute tweets exchanged with John Legend’s ladylove Christine Teigen (a fellow SI modeland a very cute kind person, though I keep not understanding how people shorter than me can model, since I am 5’9” and Teigen – like that bland Lily Aldrige –  is 5’8”…), had sadly to discover she would have missed the broadcast, due to the fact her plane back from South Carolina to New York home would have been delayed and she would have been traveling just exactly by he time of CBS telecast.

Very few people can wear THAT dress THAT flawlessly

Poor thing!

She sounded disheartened at some point… I would have been not happy as well.

But then, some kind heart managed anyway to let her see it all 😉

Before her flight took over she was watchin tv in the lobby and once again it’s clear that she shares lots of things with her man, who’s a total Stevie Wonder devotee, too.

But what was Adam doing on 30th night?

What were Maroon5 up to for the CMT Awards?

Well, you know I don’t really click with Country… but when I even learnt that they were up to cover TAYLOR SWIFT I chuckled.

Really.

I am having such a hard time dealing with this (in the whole Kanye‘s thing, you know what i think, and I wonder how Adam can feel being of my same school of life about it?), even though I was sure by the time Swift’s “romance” (??) with Jake Gyllenhaal was made public, someway their roads would have crossed.

But really???

Covering “Mine”???

Oh, boy... everything I did NOT want to see...

Okay that you guys OF COURSE have done an amazing job on it an definitely transformed a lukewarm “hit” in a classy turnover of sound but… REALLY???

I have trouble there.

Maroon 5 at the CMT Awards, 30 November 2010

Tomorrow I will see the broadcast and decide but… KANYE. TEAM KANYE.

Sorry guys.

I am not always agreeing with anything you do (though I repeat: I’m sure YOUR version of Mine is awesome).

Duh.

Better get back in BEAUTIFUL TERRITORY and let’s enjoy some of the cuteness about Anne’s catwalkin in a couple of actually true (albeit kinda simple) article on her surfaced after from the broadcast it was clear Adam was there for her.

they won the genetical lottery... 😉

First this one… and well, SURE they were the most beautiful couple there: tall and gorgeous they seem like real life Barbie and Manly Ken…):

most beautiful couple for sure

Then this beautiful one which quotes Adam gushin on her in September stop at Howard Stern’s show (check my past post… that day where the guys did that amazing radio cover of Let’s Stay Together… and you know I always think he sings it to her ;)):

He gets so sweet talkin about Anne 🙂

THESE are the next times you will catch Maroon5 on tv (and I will try and translate all videos here again):

next video chances

Yesterday then the day was quiet… Guys had a chat time in Nashville (if I can find a transcript of it I’ll put it up next time, along to what hasn’t surfaced yet that I have spoke about today), prior to learn that they had again gained a Grammy Nomination for Misery in the Best Pop Performance category (yesterday there was the Grammy Nomination Day).

Having candidate themselves only in 6 categories (due to the release time for HAO, check my previous post where I did post the prenominees link list) it’s already a good achievement that Maroon5 got again acknowledged as they deserve to.

I am APPALLED just at the composition of the Pop Album Category (only deserving one there is Gaga, but then I sadly knew it would have been an hard time for HAO), and about any of Katy Perry and Justin Bieber nomination, but beside that I am really pleased with the rest of the nominations, especially about Arcade Fire and Cee-Lo’s ones, because if you read this blog you know I tipped those (and Eminem and Gaga) all year long to take the major honors this year.

But yeah… That Pop Album Category and Perry+Bieber let me fear that like last year with friggin Swift there will be some to be ashamed for this year too at the Grammy Awards.

Oh well.

At least we know who’s gonna shine on red carpet, don’t we?:

I told you she’s just adorable 😉

And I don’t even like Pomeranians… but truly she was so cute 😉

Adam tweeted some time after these from Anne… I guess they watched the broadcast of Sons Of Anarchy while talkin that night? 😉

Whatever they do, they are adorable to me.

End of the debate.

They even made me sligtly forget about Lakers in those moments 😉

That’s how much I like the idea of them together 😉

Then this morning, while I was having a meeting … some KINDRED soul posted THIS (hold yourself… it’s DANGEROUS to health!):

O. M. G... Really. What one can say. He's so good you'd love to EAT him alive 😉 (nice nailpolish Anne, on that sole hand 😉 )

It’s the second part of the shot you know from last post... and oh… BOY.

I can’t process the thought.

My fetish for ilium bone and male hips goes to stratosphere with Adam.

I can’t wait to buy whatever magazine is that they shot these nature candids for charity along.

(I repeat: Anne… you lucky lucky lucky woman ;)…*sigh*…)

HAO. Still love it a lot.

Karim is NOW mocking me about this of course.

But he knows I can’t help the way this man sexes me up.

It’s… a natural chemical inner and unstoppable reaction (look the smirk he has… it’s everything a promising one should be).

I guess for today we’re okay this way…

I am cooking and very soon I will sleep after for two days I slept a total of 4 hours and half.

I’ll cuddle and enjoy the bless which is my life and the fact my beloved soulmate can even handle my passions about music and… musicians 😉

I’m just so very fortunate and blessed.

😉 Catch you in 7-10 days 😉

Enjoy this start of December, the Xmas await, and if you are Jewish, Happy Hanukkah!! 🙂

Z. 😉

Good September ya’ll!!!

Maroon5 à la Leonardo Da Vinci in Billboard, Sept 2010

Did you miss me?

Adam and Jesse Collage at the Billboard Chat Event in july

Austin Nichols visits his buddies at one gig 😉

Already working after one of the most beautiful Augusts EVER, which ended in Verona at the Trovatore Opera this past saturday after 4 weeks cruising in France, Italy and Greece (as I already precised, look out for my past twitpics for chronicles about my Summer, I’ll hardly write about it here or anywhere else…), and already posting actively in the Lakers Blog, too (that had to be done prior than anything else online, of course…), I can come here and try to organize the incredible amount (231 and counting) mails related to music stuff that I have got from the moment when last Recap ended its coverage… to yesterday, basically.

It will take a long while.

But I had a great yoga session previously so everything is gonna be treated with white silky gloves.

Or something ;)…

I will get back to regular posting about all things (all sport, music and life; and for those reading this from the Italian version, I will also get back to the usual bilangual updates) after this one last Recap.

But today, it’s gonna basically be only an English-written   Maroon5 related post.

Ready?

Steady?

Go!

As per usual, credits for videos and fancy stuff pics that I collaged go mostly to Jennifer Coles, though the immense collage of the Y100 interviews are instad taken by me from Getty Images (thanx for the shoutout, Marghe!).

Let’s start exactly with some audio from the Y100 interview:

But before that event, we actually left the guys in the middle of the month, rockin around East-Midwest .

They have recently unleashed a first webisode of the tour too:

Just to make me drool a little bit more, right? 😉

Adam. In his jeans. Goooooood Lord 😉

God knows the only small thing I’d loved to add to my perfect Summer would be a gig of them… but no problems… October in Los Angeles comes soon, and we check them TWICE at the Greek Theathre.

Adam... rollerblading backstage. Yes. I know... *-*

Think the second time… both MY parents and Karim’s parents will attend too… it’s gonna be epic ;).

Their trip has been cute all over.

And not only because Adam fits *those darn jeans* SOOOOOOO well (sigh… moment of collective stumble… takin a breath… awww!!! He’s so drop dead gorgeous…).

The traveling showed us also the boys in some awesome tweeting mood all over the gap this post is covering, offering a display of their humour and loveability (is that a word? 😉 not that I care about grammar… Adam’s sooo friggin adorable when he speaks his mind, that no word defines that tenderness and naughty-ness well enough anyway ).

Absolutely hilarious. I so adore this man...

And Adam got one of his usual funny ideas along, among for instance shout outs at awesome people like Alicia Keys (among brackets, his own cover during this tour of If Ain’t Got You is AWESOME… and always among brackets, of course Alicia was somebody I started to follow as soon as I set up MY own Twitter account: Levine, you’ve been SLOW there after me… 😉 ).

Y100 Collage - 1 -

As soon as Anne had flown on the other side of the world, and he presumably had to keep his pants and trousers on longer than he uses to do when she’s around (ehi… don’t be prudes: that is the naturality of human lives. I wish them to do daily – even hourly – kinky and awesome naked sex all time when they’re together. That is what they should do… ;)), he decided to ask fans to come at him with a particular item as for gifts bringers.

Super-Heroes pants for him to wear after.

Y100 Collage - 2-

No… he really did, and he cared about giving all the correct infos about that to ease the choice for the fans ;).

So he got pants right off that night, and he’s keeping GETTING them all along the tour dates as we write.

Dunno about you, but I truly finds funny that female fans agree there… because as long as I’m concerned, all sexually thinkin fans (means anyone with a sexual active mind who’s older than… I dunno… I started to have sexual thoughts by 9… but let’s put a 13 in instead… ;)) actually want to take his pants OFF, right?

But ehi, maybe they hope he will try them on under their very own eyes?

That is.

The truth is that one.

Y100 Collage - 3-

Name me a single female Maroon5 fan who doesn’t dream about him sexually- might that be a sweet kind of sexual dream, or a raw one, or anything in between… or everything around that! – and I will immediately call a Museum.

That one should be a very rare specimen of human being to expose… LOL!

N.B.: that doesn’t mean we don’t respect his girlfriends, or the fact that he gets in love, or that we don’t wish those situations the best.

Personally, at least, I do respect that all and fully, and I actually wish for that entirely and well when he’s involved and in love.

My rule is this one: since he gets my love for gifting me awesome vibes and inspiration and music, whatever keeps him happy, it makes me happy too (GOLDEN RULE).

I respect especially Anne, whom I truly truly like, out of the many girlfriends he’s got so far.

But the truth is that one written above and to deny or misrepresent it would be pointless.

Every Maroon5 fan is charmed by Adam also on a sexual related level: and darn, he does know that… he friggin MOANS when he sings. It can’t be a casual fact. 😉

Every female fan dreams of him in some way and at some level.

Every-Single-One.

Maroon5 in Atlanta, August 2010

Fact ;).

That goes beside (in my case, and not beyond) the fact that we love his voice and music like a seraphine is singing at our ears everyday…

It’s a Tao.

A Tao of adorability at every level: why dismiss some part of it?

Being a complete package is so rare these days…

We have to treasure him, who’s DEFINITELY a complete one ;).

I’m all for the complexity and complete-ness of situation of life, you know about that already, don’t you?

But that certainty in itself has nothing bad or negative about it.

Too bad, and I can understand if/when this scares the guys and Adam especially, that sometimes the will of getting near to him/them crosses the mind of some nutcase, too, and the effects are a bit out of control as people are not always brained enough to separate the level of dreaming from the actual, factual life which involves you know… private spaces and good decent manners?

See:

From Perez Hilton: Ladies Crashes Maroon5 ConcertAs I always point out…

Crazy heads are everywhere.

Obsessive people are REALLY scary and dangerous.

Poor Adam 😉 He has NO idea how friendly some of those obsessive, compulsive liar people can get, to disguise their obsessive paths to him.

On the other side, fandom can also get incredibly sweet and beyond cute and appreciable:

Abby letter to Adam. Just super cute, gotta agree with him there,awww 🙂

But luckely, he actually always seem well aware how much freaky the fanship can get at some point, and always tends to play it down a bit.

Jesse is experimental with camera

I really like this side of him: makes him so grounded, and it shows how brilliant his head is.

Another side of him that I like is that Adam seems equally a dreamer and a practical mind, a mixture that ain’t easy to achieve, especially when you get THAT famous.

In order to substantiate my observation, one of the BIGGEST things happening while these two weeks and some were running is that now Adam has a clothing Fashion Line.

Oh, yes.

Our collective dream of having him modeling somehow got fullfilled.

YES!!! 😉

222 Fashion Line

Yep.

222, of course. We could have set a bet he would have named it so, right?

Look also at the video for 222Brand:

Then at this sweet lovely collage 😉 (btw, the one doing the candle backheaded CAN’t be Adam? He has no more chest tat, no more under chest tat, and you can’t really see the tiger paw on his arm – and you should in that position, at least a bit… Plus no X, no guitar, no 222 and no Japanese Cherry Flowers on his internal arm sleeve. Nope, that ain’t Adam. That’s maybe Ari?) of Adam (that is his back instead) and Jimmy V:

Adam and James (and?) modeling 222

You know how I love fashion so it’s obvious this news gets so many reboots by me in every way (out of context and coming after reading his interviews on the matter: I was actually ADORING the preppy version of Adam in his highly fashionable days… this because he as such an elegant chiseled face that actually high fashion suits him BEST… but his soul is a rebel one so it’s natural that couldn’t last. Even though I’m sure he considers himself hot in high fashion too… ;)), so take this one from NBC, too:

NBC talks 222

But let’s get back on the road, right around the time of the Y100 interview too.

Guys were in Miami (or Meee ahhhhh Meee), and all you need and probably care to know is that they went on a boat (of course, what else you do in Miami?) when they were not on performing duties.

Oh… and Adam’s been so gracious, to show his hot self and all of them right on the prua of it.

Take a breath… ;):

Yeah... okay. He's shirtless. What else do we need to caption, here? 😉 Exactly.

And just to clarify my point up above about the fact the yoga man in the 222brand COULDN’T be him, look how visible is under Adam’s chest his phoenix-like tattoo. 😉

gorgeous shot

Talkin about tattoos on Adam, it seems that we won’t see any soon a leg sleeve on him

Jesse and James. Aww.

What to say… I’m glad he enjoyed some boat boarding in August just like I did, and I am always delighted when he extrudes along his joyous moods some Lakers Love (and  gets also some reciprocating shout out there), especially if this involves mocking a bit Princess of Losers Jimmy LeBronze.

But in the end, the point is you get someone’s adorability by the way he stays humble and grateful and keen to real things that do matter in life.

He’s also so entertaining when he lets the kid in himself run freely and somehow manages to be at once childlike, fierce, brave and modest.

Love plus more Love. Perfect.

All at once.

I like the fact he loves his childhood friends still… and gets their love obviously back .

Then, after all, his bandmates are ALSO part of this painting… which is the best of best things, right?)

He’s so smart… but when you tell it to him he shields himself and tends to say not.

I like ALSO that.

Endlessly.

They are ALL wonderful human beings… so different from one another, yet all so completely true and valuable and loveable.

I’m honored to be their fan since they’ve existed to European (then indie almost) acknowledge practically.

Other bit they shared, this one:

Adam in Rolling Stone, August 2010

And then check out this version of Give a Little More (the second single which I ADORE!!!) from these kids (Maroon5 shared it themselves):

Then if you feel like singing sensations too, you might enjoy being part of THIS intriguing contest too :

MySpace Karaoke Contest

The boys did as well a VH1 “5 Question” spot feature during the Soutern Time in Florida, that you get to check (Thanx Jennifer!) here (Time Machines? Superpowers? Cool ;)):

Now, a bit more of compulsive shopping at truckstops… (oh, boy… still so hilarious even when you see it for the 20th time ;)…):

Okay that you were in Texas but... 😉

Now to get you back at some more heavenly related matters, after this.. erm… texas outshow of “fashion”, get also the image Jesse so kindly tweeted to let us know there is of course some yoga training time on tour as well:

Chad, Adam (and Jesse) ready to yoga train on tour

And again at Jesse is the praise for sharing a Mickey Madden’s rare pic (Mickey… please man get a twitter too!!! Please! okay that you’re the silent one, but comon!!!):

Mickey, courtesy of Jesse 😉

Then, let’s start to state that the European leg of the tour has started to shape.

German call out (and they also already filmed a German special while touring those days):

March sweet March... getting 32 in Italy maybe? Straight after these?

Well, I’ll have secured in my stock the Berlin show by now.

Let’s see after 😉

Now let me show you what I have ordered through international retail as soon as they have shared the news on Twitter:

Aren't they all so adorable? Awww 🙂

Sure, in Milan I could find it downtown… but I couldn’t risk to miss it right? 20 dollars so well spent 😉 *awwww* 🙂

There is then a new “Sticky Glue” feature that is for American crew to masterize so far; and then there is all about the incoming London Stop on September 9.

Yeah, because TODAY is the last show on USA soil for a while (today the first leg of Summer Tour ends there, and be careful guys… Psycho’s there, beware… LOL…) and then FINALLY they will grace a bit Europe of themselves too.

You know how I think it was and has not been that much of a wise move to wait THIS long to show their faces up in Europe too, but whatever… any time they’re gonna be nearby, it’s a cherished time by me.

Anne V is in Capri - 1 -

Now, since after days of silence and after her holiday in Turkey ended, sweet Russian Fairy (who started tweet back again the other day) is actually working… well, HERE in Italy (in Capri, to be more precise, sees pics…), there are ideas running onto my mind .

For instance… I wonder if…

I wonder if the two Chovy’s lovers (it was sweet the other day, when Anne tweeted THIS, and immediately after Adam tweeted THIS as well… awwww adorably they are in synch? And I say this even if I still consider Pomeranians a dog version of a cat… therefore I’d love to see a CAT instead ;)… but if they like that, fine to me. Love has got to have no bounderies…) will reunite here in Italy (taking plane as soon as tonight show ends, Adam? You should… I bet you can’t wait to see her again, and you must… ;)), or if she will join him in England, or elsewhere also considering after that UK stop Maroon5 have a stop in Paris planned as well (awww…the town of love!!!).

Anne V is in Capri - 2 -

All that is submitted to the fact the Fashion Weeks are starting everywhere.

So she might have working duties as well getting in the way.

I really hope they are soon together again though, because I adore them together and because you all know I am a sucker for that and I deeply like Anne (who confirmed yesterday how cute and lovely she is, and how great is her taste not only in men, but about places to vacation over too ;)… I hope she found that church I addressed her at … even though I would probably prefer to practice Skype yoga as well, givin her supposed company there ;)…).

Anyway, I think it’s amazing a supermodel eats carbs and forces drivers to allow her to taste the REAL Naples pizza, especially because that will to eat it derived from a BOOK reading.

Anne V in Capri. Today. 1st September 2010

That hits all the right spots in my list.

She’s awesome; I do really like her vibe.

So, wishing the happy lovers to reunite soon, and why not in my beautiful Country (see all pics from Anne of Capri, to get in touch with the idea of what Italy is…) let me thank you for reading (oh, boy… sounds so cheesy) and be aware that I won’twrite a post this long ever again ;).

Back to normality.

Back to work, life… friends and lovers; back to posts about MANY things, and not only one-topic-centered.

Tonight… Karaoke with friends and personalized microphones ;).

Catch You soon, your friendly web neighbour Miss Z. 😉

Good morning!!!

Babies a couple of months ago

Expect a HUGE post.

Expect Sounds (Radio Interviews!!!!)

Expect VIDEOS (ah-ah!!! Misery Director’s Cut, then some Rolling Stone Interviews… And of course more excerpts from Vevo and MTV…).

Expect Pictures.

Expect to catch Hands All Over Album Cover Preview:

The cover of upcoming Hands All Over album. I LOVE it.

Expect also some headache because considering I upload this around 2PM of July 2nd in Italy, and in just these few hours Maroon5 are all over plotting New York, from Today’s Show, that forced our favourite cutie pie to woke up way sooner than regular,  to Radio (Again), you might be almost sure this post’s FIRST version won’t be the only one of the day.

More from Adam and James at Z100 radio a couple of days ago

😉

Thank essentially Jennifer Coles DA Queen for everything… It’s incredible the amount of work this superwoman does.

Bow down to Greatness, Ya'll 😉

🙂

Before stepping into Maroon5 territory , let me just speak a mooment about the essential news of yesterday:

PHIL JACKSON REMAINS WITH THE LAKERS FOR ANOTHER SEASON!!!!! Can you spell THREE-PEAT???

Awesome!!!! I have forcedly to find time to post something about it in the Lakers Blog.

At night at least 😉

Okay, let’s get back into Babies’ territory.

*perfect face* 😉

Before starting the series of news properly related to their activity, let me just drawn myself into sweet honey thinkin what Adam and Anne did two nights ago.

They went to Movie Hall  and they

*awwwwww*…

They checked out Toy Story 3.

Aren’t they so adorable?

I could stare at him endlessly...

I mean, when people misunderstand Adam’s antics, they really DON’T get how tender he actually is.

Okay… the morning after that movie catch, Adam went out with Jesse for another radio interview at Sirius HQ (yep, the one where he asked us to name to Mr. Carmichael’s the Minority Report’s role Tom Cruise impersonated >>> check previous post, okay?…), and you can actually see from this picture Adam typing on his iPhone4 the question :

Adam types to make us name John Anderton benefiting Jesse's curiosity

It seems like Jimmy V. hasn’t gotten over his idiosynchratic attitude towards speaking up with media, because he was keeping explaining yesterday how he feels uncomfortable with all that.

But he is so cute… even when feeling so apart from his true self, getting scanned over and throughout 😉

Check out this further Radio Interview piece anyway:

Adam and Jesse at Sirius Radio

But yep, I know… yesterday was the BIG day of Video première of Misery (which Anne aptly shouted about).

Were we drooling enough through anticipation?

Through expectations?

You bet it.

I was properly DYING to watch it!

We had to deal with this kind of previewing content:

Error
This video doesn’t exist

And also, thanx to Rolling Stones (check link up above at the start of today’s post to also READ the news, okay?) we had THIS to drool over:

Plus all the endless excerpts of video footage we are familiar with since they shot it along wonderful Joseph Kahn last May.

The way they use hands is so totally latin-style 😉

And in all that… wonder what, of course?

Video looked to be available only in the USA.

Bummer…

Well, more pissing actually than Bummer.

I was really upset about it, though I was actually expecting it. I was already oriented in waiting till iTunes USA would have SOLD the video (that I will buy anyway of course), but then… people up to save the day!!!

But Joseph firstly posted HIS DIRECTOR Cut’s Version on his website, allowing us to SEE IT:

And then the mighty Jennifer made it and found a way to all the world to see the Official Version (I think I like more the Director’s cut, but truth is that I drool continuatively all along the video, whatever version it is…) :

What can I say?

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 1 -

*Hot* seems reductive.

Yeah, I know, people will complain about the “violence” but it’s metaphorical, it’s stylized, it’s art-y deceitful and boy… Dunno about you but those two together look like… WOW.

*Booooooooommm!!!!*

Really dynamite.

I love everything about the video and I adore the song.

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 2 -

End of it 😉

After premiering the video, the guys, just like reported days ago, were up for the VEVO special private gig (yup… somebody was really lucky…), and when I say “UP” I also literally mean it.

Location was in fact the rooftop of the Empire Hotel (just SO near to Karim‘s parental home in New York… *shit*… ;)), and guys had a blast!

They gave it out too 🙂 🙂 🙂

Gig has been recorded and will be broadcasted soon.

Awwww 🙂

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 3 -

What can I say… I shake 😉

There are tons of pictures from that – blessed – roof and also some that Anne tweeted yesterday, and Adam did tweet this morning (minutes ago actually).

A pretty voice told me Jeremy Sisto and some CUUUUTE other people were there as well (So they are staying in contact after WUC video shooting ;)? *cute* :))

Just RIGHT NOW, Maroon5 are on the Today Show taping.

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 4 -

There are SIN membersand you better realize this won’t be the last time they get some preview… – , again, and of course our boys are not the only one wakin up early to perform there… someone else’s sticks well nearby to her treasure, too (awww… lucky her!).

Boys will be up for more interviews AND a hosting today and tomorrow so stay tuned.

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 5 -

This post is gonna be probably updated in a short, short while with things from the Today Show exactly 😉

But right now,  am sure you are all well happy and pumped.

Enjoy the video(s) and man… if you don’t burn there, I guess you have no sexuality key in you AT ALL.

Maroon5 July 1st 2010 VEVO gig - 6 -

Which would be pretty bad.

😉

Enjoy your day!!!

Everything shinesssssss!!!

Whoooo!!!!

Miss Z. needs a teacup.

Definitely 😉

Oh, boy… what a day!!!

Derek Fisher is My Captain

Well, what a night at least 😉

I had just lived a space of 10 hours that will remain in my memory for a long time.

And it’s all about true delight.

All about true talent.

All about being WINNERS.

I mean… it’s all about things I love 😉

As usual, I start from the end, cheering my Lakers and the fact they fullfilled my prediction about having to win Game 3 against homey tradition (two posts ago, folks ;)).

Kobe cheers Derek after win

It has been a difficult,  yet marvelous for a true fan, game.

Celtics just are not up to us.

My trip to Figueroa is secured.

And the security is called DEREK FISHER.

Oh, the satisfaction…

Hottie alert: Tom Brady Cheers Kobe after win

For the whole year in the Lakers Blog I had to read crap about him.

Like last year, just MORE.

I know many are not really able to decode basketball, but questioning Fish the way it was done for most part of the year was simply idiotic.

Talkin for a minute – ALERT: hilarious piece of the day incoming – about people not getting basketball, at least in the Lakers Blog there are competent people mostly, even when missing some stuff out due to personal bias… but hilarious Psycho is topping herself again today in her *expertize* about the Great Game, (how come she doesn’t know Celtics always have low scoring games, for them and the opponent? Might it be cos she TOTALLY fakes bball acknowledge, like she fakes EVERYTHING else? I guess so.. three months ago she couldn’t name our players beside Kobe&Pau… LOL… Loser… count days… July 1st come SO soon for your shame to be disveiled publicly…), not to mention the fact she thinks a rich supermodel needs discounts at shops…

Pau cheers Kobe after win

I kept laughing 15 minutes. She truly is a joke.

Ehi, but after all everyone needs a good joke to cheer morning up. That’s her role in life. Makin everybody sufficiently smart laughing back at her.

And in the winners day, some hint at one of the greatest losers in the universe is always a great plus.

By contrast, that hopeless nutcase enlightens the good side of the life even more.

So, back at Derek, and at his  Heart of a Champion.

Read my peana at him, while dissecting the game recap. (yup, filled with typos… I was writing it on the taxy over iPad.. and after all I never check typos anyway. I’m lazy. Especially when not writing in my language on the web).

I am so proud to have defended him all year long passionately.

Strange enough, I was as per usual COMPLETELY right 😉

This is what he did, along the team:

LOL.

PaulA Pierce is surely sullen and stuttering like a mantra his prediction that the series wouldn’t go back in LA.

What is it won’t for real now, PaulA?

You are a rejected from Cali.

Karim honestly despises you 😉 I can see why…

But ehy… let’s not be arrogant.

Celtics won’t die easily so… 2 more to go: just play like you can Lakers.

Your class outshines Celtics even in a so-so night overall 😉

Let’s just hope DocRivers crying at referees won’t cause another stolen game next one.

Cross fingers…

Now that the space for sport is closed (and ehi!!! Two days at FIFA World Cup!!!) I can dwell into the awesomeness that was Muse gig in San Siro yesterday.

Muse in San Siro, Milan (Karim's pic) - 1 -

Yup: the other part of my supertop day.

Muse live, quite simply, are MASSIVE.

Their sound which is so rich, and rockingly symphonic gets emphasized on live performances, and then their scenic ability, their so totally british taste for monumental staging makes the whole esperience JUST PURELY UNMISSEABLE.

And it’s not just an empty shallow show of images and stage devices… because these guys play and sing totally PERFECTLY.

They’re Incredible Musicians first.

With a wonderful vision.

Go anywhere catching them in this stadium tour.

It’s something truly truly truly fantastic.

I mean… I have seen them (excluding in Festivals) 8 times and yesterday topped even Wembley Stadium (which remains one of the most beautiful gigs I have ever attended).

The atmosphere was sublime, and everyone was constantly reminding that TODAY is Matt Bellamy’s BDay 🙂 🙂 🙂

They loved it… he loved it.

Muse in San Siro, Milan (Karim's pic) - 2 -

Music at the level Muse play it is really something valuable.

Talent, talent, talent and MORE talent.

Live, to me only Radiohead are better. They pass U2 by far.

I wish I had seen Pink Floyd live to make a total list, but whomever has got a glimpse of Muse Live knows what I am talkin about.

Brilliance in waves.

They’re Kobe-sized perfectionists and it shows, but that never lack true passion (just like in Kobe, actually: see for evidence his defensive game today…).

This if I remember correctly was the setlist:

  1. Uprising
  2. Supermassive Black Hole
  3. New Born
  4. Map of the Problematique
  5. Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever)
  6. Guiding Light
  7. Interlude
  8. Hysteria
  9. Nishe
  10. United States Of Eurasia
  11. MK Jam
  12. Undisclosed Desires
  13. Resistance
  14. Starlight
  15. Back In Black – cover of AC/DC
  16. Time Is Running Out- House of the Rising Sun
  17. Unnatural Selection
  18. Unintended
  19. Exogenesis: Symphony, Part 1: Overture
  20. Stockholm Syndrome
  21. Encore 2:
  22. Take A Bow
  23. Plug
  24. In Baby
  25. Knights of Cydonia

Hope that it’s correct… one of the greatest things about Muse’s gigs is that they are restless.

They play so much (like GreendDay for instance) and overwhelms you with a pouring roaring amazing sound… and you can get lost because your memory lives by too many impulses and flashes.

It’s fantastic actually.

Best moment for me (beside the Ufo thing… WOW!!!!) was when they stepped into Undisclosed Desires… that is the song Karim always sings to me because he says it seems describing me totally… so I had Matt singing it, & Karim attached to me whispering it as well in my ears and I was feeling so FULL: completely happy.

Thank you Muse.

You really gifted me with something unforgettable.

What else?

Well, today I will ride Swifty, so I have no breaks at work and I will gone through 3.30 pm, and then reach the Countryside.

I’m so happy…

And talkin about happy things, let me just update one moment with the funniest series of Maroon5 related tweets, – that I saw only after SanSiro gig ended, on the way back home – which after all have to share both with Romance & Live Music, so they fit the scheme today:

Anne’s tweeting about her current Latvia photoshot, hinting at a well incoming reunion with *somebody* soon

Minutes after she allegedly closes eyes, *somebody* realizes he’s early awake, with no more purposes for a while (btw, he’d need some spell check too, not only myself…);

“Voice of Reason” Jimmy V. makes it clear that *somebody* could actually find LOTS he has yet to do

LOL.

They are awesome.

Take this picture of them by Lauren Dukoff (talented photographer, I like her) of  RollingStone fame : I have just applied some filtering to mantain my usual palette coloring with them out from Call&Response 😉

Maroon5 in June 2010 photographed by Lauren Dukoff

😉

To end this day about art and greatness and Number Ones, let me introduce you Photography Genius Steven Klein, (my favourite) working a number of references as wide from Giger, to Fritz Lang, to Cocteau in the new Lady Gaga‘s Video ALEJANDRO:

The song in itself doesn’t really make me go crazy at all, but the video aesthetic is awesome, with the usual Klein’s color palette, so cold and neat… flashed up by bites of red.

Video Fashion Credits HERE. (I want a lot of those things ;))

What more?

I’d just say…

Keep On Rockin u all who are Number ONES!!!

Me?

Sure I am.

Don’t need anybody statin it.

I know it. 😉

Good morning everyone!

Look above (or if it doesn’t appear, click here ) at the latest marvel of Jonas Akerlund, the visionary genius that also Divine Adam loves quite a lot, and whom he interviewed past summer in NYC.

After producing the video of Gaga that I love the most, for the song that I love the most (Paparazzi), here we are for chapter two, “Telephone” (song’s okay, Beyoncé really doesn’t add a thing for me, but it’s a fun video to watch, like a mini movie – which often happens in Akerlund’s world).

Enjoy it.

Talkin about visual marvels, yesterday after some sushi&teppanyaki dinner (my friends and Karim were really sweet trying to tame my evil mood after Milan’s débacle with all that I dig the most… thank you bb… love you all) we went out watching Alice in Wonderland, by the mighty Tim&Johnny:

We totally adored it.

I wish it’d be even longer, actually: someway if it would have, things would have been developed even better.

The girl playing Alice is REALLY talented.

And the movie is a tripping nightmare with all that I expected in, encompassed in a visually outstanding dark charm.

I definitely advice anyone to go watching it. It’s exactly the creepy vibe the actual book has deeply into it. It’s a really well done opera.

No more, no less.

And yes, I might be biased, but we were 13 thinking exactly the same yesterday: it never happens with my crew unless the greatness of something is THERE.

Ah!

Talkin about visual marvels again…

Adam and Anne in New York this current night

These are my favourite two coupling up in New York City just about three hours ago.

Well, they have coupled in new york since 18 hours actually… but you get me.

Thanx again to Jorge Perez for the snippet (I might pay him…no, kidding ;)… I love that he’s patronizing this though. I wish he could protect their intimacy from jalous people around, cos there are always sad jalous people around trying to hold good things back, aren’t they?), and for the quote defining the picture, which I liked as well (I call them Peynet 2010…), I am giggling inside since when I had confirmation by Adam‘s and Anne‘s tweets that they were BOTH in New York at the same time straight (awww… l’amour… il vince tous ames…). I didn’t expect anything different, of course.

While I thought Adam would have flewn for sure in time to not miss a single hour to be spent along the Russian Fairy, you know I was putting around that maybe he would have united useful and good and hanging around Octone’s HQ.

I went near, but I wasn’t accurate.

I did not even go near actually.

There is actually also a professional reason he is in New York for, though, and it’s an AWESOME one: Adam and Jesse will play along the Hollies for their induction in the Rock’n’Roll Hall of Fame on Monday, March 15th.

YES!.

This is really great cos I can witness it all on Fuse.com as well (I guess?).

And then you know, it’s an honour in itself (Graham Nash is gaining all possible points in tutoring the guys by now… he created them along, he shaped their real combo, and nowhe keeps putting an eye. Wow. I find this just so wonderful words fail to express how…).

Rolling Stone 1100 Issue

Then, yesterday I had the confirmation I had to buy Rolling Stone’s 1100 Issue, cos again my beloveds Maroon5 gave us confirmation they are as well in the album preview section (not that it’s saying that much yet, but I am a collector, so I rushed to Ebay and ordered a copy: through Amazon they won’t deliver it in Italy, and I don’t wanna wait for the issue to be available in Milan in merely 10 days…)

Awesome.

So, my mood is quite back on track after all these marvels displayed under my eyes and not merely eyes and I can await with expectations to our weekend at te mountains (we leave around 5 pm).

I wanna thank my friends for being so dear and caring and lovely, and my Karim for being just the most perfectly fitting me man Dear Above up there could had ever created.

I feel so blessed.

And in this, I just wanna wish anybody to feel love, and being shining through it.

I have played this song this morning: it always grabs my heart so powerfully and I think it’s one of the best love songs ever written. I love it in the author’s (Phil Collins) version, but Cindy Lauper is unbeatable there (LOOOOVE her).

Take it:

I wanna post it cos I wish to people in love to BE THEMSELVES and never get llet down by “environmental advices” when it comes to their heart’s feelings.

Be as you are: passionate and impulsive if you are inmostly so, cos a lover gotta to be true if he/she wants to gain true love.

Love is a risk, a beautiful risk we have to embark in with open mind and open heart.

If you don’t go broke for it, it just can’t be love.

And the other one won’t know that it was love, either.

Have a great day.

😉 Miss Z. 🙂
