"Bulletproof". A song that is played on the radio frequently and whenever it comes on, i can admit it, i just wanna get up and dance, i start singing the lyrics(badly i might add) and tapping my feet. This toe tapping song is a HUGE hit so it made me think who is La Roux? I mean i never even heard of them before this song came out. So, using my trusty research skills, i went out on a mission to find out everything i could about La Roux. This meant: I read magazine articles, watched interviews, watched there music video, went on a fan pages and so much more. So here is what i found out:
La Roux consists of Elly Jackson and Ben Langmaid. In an interview elly told the story about how music was always a big part of her life and at 12 she taught herself how to play the guitar and started writing folk songs. Later she was introduced to producer Ben Langmaid which as you know is the other half of La Roux. She said on the days she was off from school, she would go over his house and they would write music together. That is how La Roux started. While i was reading an article about Elly, a qoute she said really made me think about the music i listen to and i totally agree. She said, " Just to be really honest. A lot of modern pop doesn't speak to me. If one more person puts 'dj turn it up' in there lyrics, I'll take a gun to my head. I mean, there must be millions of people who like listening to those songs about being in the club, but i think there are millions who dont and want something else." And from this I understood how most of our modern songs are exactly the same and about the same things! So i applaud La Roux for creating something else.
Well, thats all for now. Bye! =)

According to teen vogue...
According to Teen Vogue, the fashion magazine, heres what people are talking about (and my opinion on it):
1.) The new movie Charlie St. Cloud. I'm totally in love with the comercial and am so excited to see the movie!! This movie stars Zac Efron who your probably used to seeing in the famous Disney movies , "High School Musical". So, this movie is completly a 360 from what were used to seeing him as. This movie is about a guy who has his little brother die in a car crash and after his brother dies he has the power to see him but as he begins to sail again and meets a girl; he gets farther and father away from his brother.
2.)The new movie, that is actually in theaters right now, The Last Airbender. Honestly, this movie looks really good but it doesn't seem like my type of movie so i probably wouldn't have it be my first choice. This movie is based on the childrens cartoon tv series. It's about an airbender who has to save the world by dominating and controlling all 4 elements: Wind, Fire, Water and Earth. This is definatley a movie for fans of The lord of the rings and the chronicles of narnia.
3.) Music!! The Henry Clay People and The Roots. I have never heard of theses bands so when i was reading about them i listened to some of there music.
The Henry Clay People: So i listened to there song, "Something in the water". In my opinion, i thought the rythem, beat and melody were quite catchy and i couldn't help tapping my foot. Although, the music was great..the lead singers voice was, well, annoying..he was good just his voice made the song a bit unenjoyable. This is just my opinion and so don't take this as im against this band or there music because i actually thought they were pretty good.
The Roots: I listened to there song, "Dont say nuthin". Personally a song with straight out rap the wole song isn't really my forte but the beat was really good and if your a hard rap fan this song is definatley for you!
Goodbye for now! (subscribeee loveess) =)

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen..where have they been?
These cute child stars (who are the only reason I watch Full House) are no longer the innocent little twins we all knew and loved. They have started there own fashion line and are now fashion inspirations. There new line Olsenboye, is an affordable and cool clothes collection which you can find now at JC PENNY. " Our designs for Olsenboye are influenced by street fashion from around the world" is what Ashley Olsen describes as the inspiration for her and her sisters new collection. I've actually watched interviews and have looked in magazines about this collection. I have seen some pieces being featured and personally I love them! The things i loved were denim leggings ($30) and somee adorablle metro clogs($40)! I can't wait to see when the collection comes out in a store near me so i can go see the full collection!! I will do an update when i see the full collection in stores! Bye for now! (subscribe dolls!)
