Today I received an email from my friends at Liberated Muse with some great information for artists I thought I would share with you!
There are several organizations that provide artists with emergency funding assistance! Here are a couple they suggested:
  1. MusicARES
    MusiCares provides a safety net of critical assistance for music people in times of need. MusiCares' services and resources cover a wide range of financial, medical and personal emergencies, and each case is treated with integrity and confidentiality. MusiCares also focuses the resources and attention of the music industry on human service issues that directly impact the health and welfare of the music community. Go to www2.grammy.com/MusiCares/
  2. The Musician's Foundation
    The Musicians Foundation helps professional musicians by providing emergency financial assistance in meeting current living, medical and allied expenses.
    Requests are handled by application which is available on the Internet and by mail from the Musicians Foundation, 875 Sixth Avenue, Room 2303, New York, NY 10001. You can also request one by telephone at 212.239.9137 or by E-mail from info@musiciansfoundation.org

JIMMY CHOO & UGGS COLLABORATE?

Jimmy Choo and Uggs collaborated in 2010 and came up with "Jimmy Choo Uggs"! I heard about this but hadn't seen a pair until today. As you can see in the pic above, "Jimmy Choo Uggs" look like traditional Uggs with the addition of the Jimmy Choo animal prints and studs. Now, only recently, I started liking Uggs just a little tiny bit! It was really hard for me to see past what to me is an odd unflattering shape for a boot, and instead appreciate the carefree style, wearability and comfort Uggs provide! But, these! Ok, question. Would you pay $595 for a pair of Jimmy Choo Uggs?

Lady Gaga's Meat Dress Snags Time Magazine Award for 2010

Lady Gaga is known all over the world not only because of her music, but also because of her style or some may say lack there of! One of the outfits we will probably NEVER forget is the "meat dress" she wore last year to the 2010 Video Music Awards! Well, believe it or not, Time magazine has named it the #1 Fashion Statement of 2010! Are you shocked? Well, you shouldn't be! After all, it did come with a matching purse and shoes! lol Can't wait to see what will take the #1 spot this year!
