Devushka Suicide in Fuego Del Alba

• MAKES ME HAPPY: The sea, sun, nature, basically. When I spend too much time in the city, I need a break to unwind and breathe fresh air. Also, an unexpected visit, a good party, a walk with my dog, and an afternoon creating crafts, clothes.
• MAKES ME SAD: People addicted to suffering and problems, that always complain, and do not know what it is to have a real problem. Intolerance, disrespect, discrimination. The hunger and the enrichment of a few (at the cost of many), the civilization in which we have become. The hypocrisy, and the Materialism.
• HOBBIES: Tribal fusion belly dancing, tattoos, sewing, recycling, going to parties and concerts, and photography.
• 5 THINGS I CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT: Cheese, chocolate, music, sex, love.
• VICES: Cheese, seeing the movies I like many times, tattoos and piercings, secondhand markets, sushi, and apple juice.
• I SPEND MOST OF MY FREE TIME: Watching movies, painting, getting out.

Artist / SG Member Name: Jenn Lloyd / Hotcurry

Mission Statement: I seek to celebrate beauty in all its forms with bold design and a touch of whimsy.

Medium: Acrylic on canvas.

Aesthetic: Vector art minus the computer. I work by hand to create lines and shapes that represent images. I lack a basic understanding of most things technical. While amazed at the designs artists were coming up with via Photoshop, I worked the only way I knew how –– old school. Everything I make is done with pencil, pen or paint, and remains untouched by computers.

When I was in eighth grade, after two years of scratching, clawing, whining and whimpering outside the door of the popular girls, I was finally let in. I scored a cute boyfriend, who, without coincidence, was my BFF Paula’s* boyfriend’s best friend. Paula (a Queen Bee) was a transplant from a nearby school and was part Filipino with gorgeous thick black hair, thick black eyebrows, tan skin and a smattering of freckles on her nose. She wasn’t particularly thin and this made me happy. I was happy because I was 13 and absolutely obsessed with my weight. Plus, if she was super-popular and not super-skinny, then maybe I could be too!

I was dreadfully insecure, and covered this up by being overly-nice, pleasing everybody within a four mile radius, not doing things my popular friends told me not to, and doing pretty much anything they approved of. This included wearing overalls with one suspender hanging down, walking during P.E. instead of running, even though I was a great runner (thus, getting a B instead of an A), ditching class and going to the mall to occasionally shoplift nail polish and other assorted sundries, and talking back to my parents about curfew.

I fell in love with Liz Meriwether when she presented her new show, New Girl, to the Television Critics Association over the summer. I would have naturally had affection for anyone who created such a warm, quirky show, but freckles and glasses just completely did me in.

New Girl stars Zooey Deschanel as Jess, a woman who moves in with three male roommates after catching her live-in boyfriend cheating. As she starts to date again, she sings her own theme song to get through the heartbreaks, and dances in celebration a lot. The rough version of the pilot even had a title song set to a sequence of freeze frames where Deschanel posed in different adorable positions. Deschanel sings the theme, lending her musical talents to the show too.

So this innocent reaction to typical sitcom plot lines (wacky roommates, crazy dates) already endeared Meriwether to me. I ran into her later at the party Fox held for its new batch of shows at Gladstones in Malibu. Standing in the beach air at dusk, Meriwether was starstruck herself to see chef Gordon Ramsay at the same party. She was concerned she was not yet drunk enough to be an entertaining interview. Little did she know I was smitten by her natural charm, no drunken word vomit necessary.

A column which highlights Suicide Girls and their fave groups.

This week, Haydin Suicide takes us for a spin around SG’s Ballet Group.

Members: 317 / Comments: 776

• WHY DO YOU LOVE IT?: The dance world is small, so having a group of people who are just as passionate about ballet as myself to mingle with is wonderful. I also love the diversity of the group. There are people who simply love to watch ballet as well as new and experienced dancers. This offers a wide range of information for any ballet dancer or ballet fan out there.







• DISCUSSION TIP: Have an interest in Ballet!



• BEST RANDOM QUOTE: “As we jumped into second position the girl in front farted like really loud. I had to go out for a few seconds to compose myself.” – Yes I picked a fart joke! It made me laugh because I’ve seen it happen in class ha ha.
  
  
• MOST HEATED DISCUSSION THREAD: Black Swan. The issue that provided cause for argument was the fact that Natalie Portman did not do all of her dancing in the movie so as a dance movie it seemed slightly over rated to those looking for something strictly ballet based. I can understand why this might upset some, however the fact that she didn’t do all her own dancing really didn’t bother me. The way I see it is in most movies there are stunt doubles for action shots, so why not dancers for dance scenes that an actress cannot do. Unfortunately Hollywood is about appealing to the general public and the dance world is relatively small. Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie for the dancing as well as the story behind it.






• WHO’S WELCOME TO JOIN?: Anyone and everyone who has had ballet cross their mind at some point in life.

Wednesday August 31st marked the beginning of the DC universe relaunch. The first edition of Justice League was released with mixed reviews. Regardless of what the critics thought about DC’s decision to reboot, thanks to healthy pre-orders, Justice League #1 is was the best selling comic of the year before it even went on sale. The first issue managed to sell out in a few days; the second order only lasted another couple of days. DC has now called for the third printing of the comics.

The DC reboot isn’t the only place that Superman’s costume got an overhaul. Close ups of Henry Cavill’s suit from Man of Steel reveal it looks a little like a scaly diving-suit; honestly, if you removed the crest and painted it orange and blue, it would make an excellent outfit for Aquaman. The images are missing the traditional cape, meaning director Zack Snyder is either going sans cape, or it’s going to be done in CG.
