WATER BABIES AS CELEBRITIES OF US ALL
1 bilion people in the world don’t have access to clean drinking water. Yet we are made up of 63% H2O as people. I think true celebrity is about whose moving water flows in the world. It’s as simple as something like that.
Nicole Richie is one of the brightest stars that does all year round. She’s our girl. Click on pic to learn more about what we can do through initiatives like Global Water.
To make clean water flow in dry places where it needs to be the most, let’s do it. Thanks. Love you all.

LADY GAGA’S NEW ALBUM WILL BE BITTERSWEET
“It’s a black fly, in your chardonnay”
Stefani Germanotta says in Rolling Stone Magazine, that her new album is finished and that it will be “bittersweet.” The pop star via Reuters and ABC, says that she’s worked on the album for months.
“It came so quickly. Some artists take years. I don’t. I write music every day…I have been for three years baking cakes – and now I’m going to bake a cake that has a bitter jelly,” she said.
“The message of the new music is now more bitter than it was before. Because the sweeter the cake, the more bitter the jelly can be.”
Alanis Morissette‘s Jagged Little Pill album is one of the most admired albums, of a singer-songwriter and female pop performer doing bitter-sweet pop music. It appears that Germanotta wants to follow suit, in the same vein–having taken from Madonna, all she can. Morisette’s music brand of style is next.

ALANIS MORISSETTE RETURNS BEYONCE’S FAVOR
Beyonce sung Alanis Morissette‘s song, You Oughtta Know live at the Grammy Awards 2010. It was a song that many believed, explained Beyonce’s family situation with her parents divorcing and her dad having a love child (Nixon) to Beyonce’s ex-branding Consultant Alexsandra Wright.
It seems that Alanis is a good sport and is returning a musical favor to The Queen Bee. Says Alanis of Beyonce’s music to OK magazine:
“When I ran a marathon, I made an eclectic mix [of music to listen to]. Survivor by Destiny’s Child saved my life for the last 6 miles. I just kept hitting repeat.”
Alanis is such a sweetheart. Love her!
