Just when I thought Brooklyn couldn’t get any sweeter and more unique! Brooklyn help the 4th annual festival of graffiti street art celebration on June 6, formally known as The Bushwick Collective. Super talented street artists came from far and wide to take advantage of the opportunity to showcase their craft by taking over the walls in Bushwick, Brooklyn. The festival turned Troutman Street & St. Nicholas Avenue into an outdoor gallery of fascinating art display. Many of the artists were on hand to answer any questions. It was a block party of art celebration. Below are some of my findings, seen through my camera. Enjoy!

Is it me or does she not look like Cindy Crawford a bit? Well…I must confess that he does look FABULOUS than a lot of women out there! Get it Bruzzer!…I mean Caitlyn!

From TMZ…

It’s the biggest reveal of 2015 for sure … Bruce Jenner as a woman, and the pic is dramatic.

The name’s now Caitlyn.  She posed for the cover of Vanity Fair’s July issue and it was shot by famed celeb photographer Anne Leibovitz.

It’s interesting the name is spelled with a C and not a K … possibly a break from the Kardashian klan.

In the Diane Sawyer interview Bruce made it clear he was saying farewell to his male persona.  This pic is a full reveal of the transformation.

Watch the video below, where Caitlyn models several outfits and seductively poses.

Yeap, she was pregnant and didn’t even know it!

I will not bore you with rhetorics. You have to watch the video footage below to witness this. I am still trying to make sense of it all myself.

After my 4th visit to Japan and 8th to Korea just shy of 2 weeks, today NYC celebrates Buddha’s birthday and I didn’t waste time in joining the revelers! Obviously still in the spirit of the Asian culture, I unpacked one of my favorite vintage kimonos paired it with my super high Geisha inspired platform shoes to get in the mood of the festivities. But changed before the ceremony at the park not to take away the spotlight from the monks.

NYC Asian community, particularly Koreans, assembled some of the top Buddhist monks in the city for a formal celebration at the park. Don’t ask me how I ended up in the official group portrait, but I did! I was lucky to have actually visited the birthplace of Buddha in Banaras, India few years ago.

And no, I am not a buddhist but you could very well call me one, by association. I respect for all types of religion, as long as its main focus is about peace and equality.

And no, those shoes are not toys but a true work of art! Click here to see me walk in them.

Next year, I might opt for the Korean Hanbok, which I happen to own as well. You can see a picture of that on my instagram page 🙂

Happy birthday Buddha! Namaste everyone!

Me at Buddha’s birthplace in Banaras, India

I barely made it off the plane today from a lovely spring break trip to South Korea and Japan only to be met by a protest march to end injustice in America. An ugly reminder of how backward the country, “the land of the free” really is! I happen to have 2 black adult male friends living comfortably in Asia and I often wondered why they would choose to live in a country where they had to start fresh on culture and new languages. Upon seeing their live styles and calm spirit in their newly adopted countries, one look at their glowing skin and peace of mind says it all. While I’m still heavily jet lagged from my trip, I summoned up enough strength to join the march on Broadway heading downtown. After having spent a great time in Asia it pains me to see what is happening to my fellow people of color in America, especially the men who are being gunned down by cops without reason. Whether “they” like it or not, black lives matter! We’re not going anywhere! For goodness sake, this is 2015 not 1853!

See the images below taken with my phone & watch the video footage to see what makes this country so great!

The devastating East Village, NYC gas explosion, fire and building collapse disaster yesterday left in its wake 3 people missing and many in critical conditions. Today however, had gawkers and news crew (myself included taking these images below with my cell) crawling all over the site trying to get a better glimpse of the on going demolition to clear out the rubble and possibly to find the missing people. News stations with bigger money muscles wasted no time in hoisting 3 helicopters over the site for better vision. Cars nearby were also damaged! My heart and prayer goes out to all affected by the disaster. God help us all.

Road rage gone mad….then cool.

Watch these dudes fight like mad only to end up shaking hands. OMG! I can’t laugh enough. Hilarious!

OMG!!! I just died! I have seen caucasians dance to African music, utter a few words in various African languages, etc. Alas! Here’s a caucasian lady, a British flight attendant by training COOKING Nigerian food while giving instructions and expressing the joy of cooking the meal in a strong spoken, almost no accent pidgin english with a few smatterings of the Igbo dialect!!! I had to watch this video 10 times to digest the shock. Impressive will be an understatement. Now, if only I could taste that food she cooked! “Oyinbo Princess”, my hats off to you. Please carry on! 🙂

According to the police report, the singer claims her daughter punched her first and she was trying to protect herself.

Her daughter alleged the fight started when the R&B Divas star came into her room and demanded that she clean up and look after her children, who were running around the house naked.

According to police: ‘Ms. Diamond Stone then went on to state that Ms. Angie Stone started [getting] in her face, telling her she needed to leave because she is tired [of] her.

‘Ms. Diamond Stone then stated her and Ms. Angie Stone started to argue, and that’s when a physical altercation started to occur.’

Diamond and a witness, family friend and rapper Blondy Chisolm – who was once in The Sequence with Angie – claimed they did not know who threw the first punch.

Angie told police after she was punched by her daughter and grabbed the metal stand to protect herself, accidentally hitting Diamond in the face.

Police said in the report: ‘Once she realised this she quickly put the stand down and attempted to get away from Ms. Diamond Stone.

‘Ms. Angie Stone then stated while she tried to get away, Ms. Diamond Stone continued to come after her as if to strike her again but stated that Ms. Blondy Chisolm came to break up the fight.’

Diamond however, claims her mother swung at her intentionally and it was her, and not Angie, who walked away and called 911.

Both women were taken to the DeKalb County Police Department but Diamond was later released with no charges.

Angie however, remains in jail after being charged with a felony count of aggravated domestic assault.

Only in America…sigh…only in America.
