Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. I love this holiday, especially this year as it falls on the same day as Chinese New Year. I’m hosting a Headshot Party in Houston, Texas on February 6th and would love it if you could all help me get the word out. The event takes place near [...]

She sings about her rise to success, about wearing gold and diamond rings, shopping for expensive things, being in magazines and bougie scenes—but she still goes to Taco Bell, “raw as hell.” I find that hilarious that she can have pretty much anything she wants, but [...]

The accompanying story still breaks my heart, but in typical Kesha Nichols fashion, she turned an unfortunate situation into something positive. Even though Kesha will never walk down the aisle in her stunning $10,000 [...]
