There was an article in the New York Times this weekend about the latest crop of Carrie Bradshaw-wannabes, who chronicle their dating lives and hope to land their own Mr. Big. The article made me smile because for as long as Sex and the City has been around, so have a slew of “real-life” Carries, [...]

I came across a post on John Mayer’s blog this morning. In it, he talks about the disease of self-consciousness, although what I think he’s really talking about is the over-reaching effects of ego identification.
We live in a culture that celebrates mediocrity and he’s right when he says that we’ve all grown up being told [...]

WordPress lets you track your hits, what people are searching under, so on and so forth. Now the blog I did about Mrs. Nicolas Sarkozy is still an all-time favorite, undoubtedly because there’s supermodels, nudity and scandale involved.
Today, I noticed a spike in traffic due to Carla Bruni. I didn’t know why until I came [...]

I’m reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (yes, I know Oprah’s big on it right now.) Anyway, I find the book rather interesting when it comes to ideas of ego, enlightenment and evolution. It’s worth picking up, if you like the whole New Age-y spiritual thing.
Yesterday, I read this sentence in the book, “The [...]

Well, I was featured in KoreAm Journal, which is the biggest Korean American magazine around. It’s a nice piece, although they did get some things wrong, like the album I’m working on, which is not my old EP, Rocktease, but the upcoming, FULL-LENGTH album, Love Like Everyone.
That album is why Brent and I have been [...]

When I’m very tired, like I am now, I always have the weirdest dreams. Last night’s was a doozy…
It started out with some sort of surreal living situation with my latest celeb crush, James McAvoy (sigh). In my dream, though, like in real life I suppose, he was a small guy, shorter than me—which was/is [...]

Now that I’m in the Land of the Best Television on the Planet (yep, the good ol’ USA), I’m getting sucked back into the idiot box. I’ve always been a fan of America’s Next Top Model and the new season starts tonight. It’s a horrible popularity contest (where Tyra Banks is always the winner) and [...]

I just saw the teen pregnancy (and so much more) flick Juno. I know I’m a little behind, but I’ve been in France! What a fantastic movie. Ellen Page is remarkable and ridiculously talented, but anyone who saw Hard Candy knows that. She certainly deserving of the Oscar nomination, if not the win. But considering [...]

After the studio, I met up with my friend, Eyoko, who was the fantastic stylist for my video, Obvious.
We grabbed a bite at Bite, which is a cute little sandwich/salad spot on 14th Street—and low-key like we wanted. Eyoko brought me a rose (awww) and we caught up on our crazy lives. Aside from working [...]

I got back into NYC on Super Bowl Sunday and quickly discovered that the place I thought I’d be subletting wasn’t going to happen. I swear the Craigslist ad said $1100 for the month. I get there and the guy informs me it’s $1100 per week! Um… not going to happen (and only in New [...]
