How To Become A Pop Star
It the modern world where fame and celebrity status have become iconic you may want to do everything you can to become famous. There are many ways in which you can try and become a pop star, and by far one of the best ways is to hone your craft and make sure you’re the best that you can be. And even though the likes of Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake were in the fame business from an early age, there is no reason that you can’t break into the pop world later in life.
One of the first things to remember when trying to become a pop star is that most people start from humble beginnings. Whilst Madonna and Lady Gaga may have become international and global superstars, they have strived hard to keep changing their images and ensure their survival in a cut throat industry. Working tirelessly to keep their self made fame they continue to add to their image, whether with avant-garde costumes and music styles, and it is these personalities that you should look up to when starting out. Always be optimistic. After every knockback try again, and always believe in yourself.
Once you have decided to become a pop star it is important to get the right accessories. It is a good idea to take a few vocal lessons, even if you are very talented, as coaches can help guide your voice towards a pop sound. Meanwhile you can use websites like couponcactus.com to buy equipment and instruments to help you write, play and record your own work. Much of the time your voice won’t be enough on its own, and in the modern day industry you’ll need to show that you can write songs too. Even if you end up using a songwriter once you are famous, being a good lyricist will set you in good stead from the start.

Fresh Faces: Exclusive interview with model Ashley Duvernay

When I spotted Ashley Duvernay’s portfolio online, I couldn’t wait to interview him. This newcomer’s photos are that of a seasoned professional..his exotic looks eye catching. His ethnicity is a mix of French, Puerto Rican, German and Black…he has brains too..he studied engineering in college! Ashley is a New York native , but has spent the last 6 years in Atlanta. A photographer flew him to Los Angeles to shoot some stuff for his portfolio, and the rest is history. He loved the experience so much, he decided to stay. He’s been in L.A since January 2010 and is signed to Photogenics Media . He is definitely on his way to the top! Check out the interview and more PICS after the break!
Trin: How long have you been modeling and how did you get started?
Ashley: Modeling is something that always gravitated to me regardless of how much I tried ignoring the idea. Not to sound cocky, thats not what im getting at, its just that my mom always wanted it for my sister and I.. but it wasn’t until I was an “adult” that i thought of pursuing it as my future. I’ve modeled on and off and professionally since I was 19.
Trin: What do you like/dislike about the industry?
Ashley: I love the attention, the affection, being pampered and groomed. Its amusing to have to get into character and capture the look desired. What I dont like about is the titles. I hate saying “uh yea, im a model…”. I’d rather introduce myself as a writer, musician, or just Ashley.

Ted Williams has just signed a deal to star in his very own reality show called Second Chances at Life which will begin filming in 2 weeks. The show will document how he went from a promising radio career, to being homeless..to becoming a youtube star. It will also follow his journey as he rebuilds his career and personal life. The show will be shot in 3 locations: Brooklyn, his hometown, Ohio, where he was homeless, and LA where he currently hangs. Season 2 is already in the works, where they will introduce others who deserve a second chance. Ted’s story is amazing and a lot has happened to him in the last few months.

Heidi Montag before and after plastic surgery photos
According to People Magazine, Heidi Montag has admitted she is addicted to plastic surgery at just 23 years old! Heidi once had 10 procedures in one day. Who is authorizing this? Smh
I was made fun of when I was younger, and so I had insecurities, especially after I moved to L.A. People said I had a “Jay Leno Chin”; They’d circle it on blogs and say nasty things… I think I look way better [now]. I’m way happier. Before, I wouldn’t even want to smile in photo’s because it would elongate my chin.
.
I think she look great, like one of Hugh Hefner’s girls (The DDD are out of control) but if she’s “obsessed” then she won’t look like this for long. The plastic surgery aged her a bit..what’s gonna happen at 30, 40 and so on?

Pants on the ground
Lookin’ like a fool with your pants on the ground
With the gold in your mouth, hat turned sideways
