First Look: Solange Releases A Short Video For ‘Locked In Closets’

'Follow Me On A Vibrant Journey Through My Hood'

One of my absolute favorite albums of 2012 was Solange‘s EP True. There are so few artists who I can listen to all day, every day, from the beginning of an album to the end, but my girl Solange has got it! Last year she released a brilliant video for her single Losing You and now she’s teaming up with Refinery 29 & Absolut for a new mini-video for her song Locked In Closets. I sooo wanted this to be a full-blown, official video, but it’s still a really fun and funky visual and Solange is now officially apart of their Free Spirits campaign. Peep the video for more and click inside for a recent photo shoot Solange did with Vogue Magazine. They covered her preparation for the 2013 MET Ball, and she looks, typically, fab.

Watch: A ‘Banned’ Guinness Commercial From 1995, Featuring A Same-Sex Couple, Finds New Life In 2013

Stand By Your Man

Back in 1995, Guinness produced a television commercial that featured a same-sex male couple in a loving (if somewhat messy) relationship. At the time, the company decided that the image of a male couple in an ad campaign was not suitable for airing on TV (largely due to the British tabloid press that deemed the ad “controversial and wrong”). Late last year, the commercial found its way to the Internets and it’s been making the rounds ever since. I am in love with this commercial … which I find clever, cute and extremely progressive … especially for the time in which it was produced. Guinness has long been one of my favorite beers so I cannot tell you how happy it makes me to see that a company that I love to support has been a long supporter of gay rights. Even tho the commercial was never officially released, it’s clear the company intent was to showcase same-sex love in a very positive light AND associate that love with the Guinness brand. Amazing. My Goodness, indeed.

Prince Harry of Wales arrived here in the US yesterday for a week long visit to the United States of America on official British Royal Family business and one of the first things he did upon his arrival was pay a visit to Arlington National Cemetery. As a military man himself, Harry understands what service in the armed forces means and he wanted to pay his respects to the US military service personnel who paid the ultimate price. After Harry toured the gravestones at Arlington, he participated in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Solider. As you can see in the photos below, it was a powerful ceremony of respect. More »

Red Wings & Tigers & Breeders, Oh My!

Once again, I made my way home to Detroit Rock City so that I could spend some time with my parents and friends. Mother’s Day is this Sunday, as you should know, and I wanted to come back and spend the day with my mom since I didn’t get to hang out with her much on my last visit. The rest of my weekend is bizzy bizzy with lots of fun activities planned. Over the course of the next few days I’m planning to see the Detroit Red Wings play some hockey, the Detroit Tigers play some baseball, in addition to attending a couple of concerts. The fun gets underway tonight but … my BFF Sarah and I managed to get the party started a bit early last night. More »
