0 MTV Plans a special about the A-Word
Posted by midwesternfront on Thursday, December 23, 2010 · 0 comments
Jesus be a music video! MTV has jumped the pregnant shark!
They are airing a special December 28 to show the other side of the 16 and Pregnant story called No Easy Decision. Are you with me? It will even follow the story of one of the 16 and Pregnant subjects (err exploitation victims) who is grappling with what to do about her SECOND pregnancy.
Now I'm not offended by pregnant teens, and I'm not even offended by abortions. But I don't think MTV should be tackling this subject any more than I think BET should touch it.
And what's with this promo pic? Not exactly the face of 16 and Pregnant is it? Where's the Bristol Palin look alike?

0 GIVEAWAY! MAC Pink for Friday Lipstick!
Posted by midwesternfront on Tuesday, December 21, 2010 · 0 comments
Yes, again. A double rainbow! Well not exactly but...
The last one was very successful, but short and since I have a "surplus" of pink friday lipstick I figured I would do an extended giveaway so more people have a chance. And it is sold out now so it's MAJAH.
I also wanted to force everyone to check out my new opening credits. Nikki Lynette, Chi-Town's own allowed me to utilize her song Model in the Mirror, which is PERFECTION.
LOOKSEE!

0 Carine Roitfeld is leaving French Vogue
Posted by midwesternfront on Friday, December 17, 2010 · 0 comments
Carine is chucking up the dueces to Vogue Paris. Wasn't it just a couple of years ago blogs were burning up with the rumors that she would be taking the reins from Anna Wintour?
While Carine never achieved the visibility of Anna at French Vogue she left her mark on a variety of aspects at the magazine including increasing ad sales and circulation as well as styling shoots.
She will be missed, and for the record, I still want to be a Roitfeld.
Via Huffington Post: French Vogue writes (and we translated): "Under her leadership, Vogue Paris became a worldwide reference and a can't-miss magazine. Carine Roitfeld gave the magazine a new dimension, with an audacious attitude in collaboration with the biggest photographers in the world."

0 Brazilian Keratin Treatment - The Stuff No One Tells You
Posted by midwesternfront on Sunday, December 12, 2010 · 0 comments
Hope you enjoy, even if you're not entirely interested in the treatment, I encourage you to watch, it's quite an adventure. I wanted to throw this video up on youtube for any African American / Black women with relaxed hair that were considering it and wondering if it really works, this is my review. (The stylist used Beox). So it's sort of a haul video, but for hair and haircare products.
