Nicole Marie & Arika Sato @ Hef's Mid-Summer Night's Dream

Last Night I went to Hugh Hefner’s Mid-Summer Night’s Dream party at the Playboy Mansion. I have been going to the playboy mansion for a while now and the parties there are tons of fun. To last night’s party I brought Nicole from the BFF show! It was her first time there and she said she had the best time of her life! I love when girlfriends are fun and positive it makes the party so much better. Lingerie is required to wear but some people wear dresses as well. As long as you dress sexy and feel sexy it’s all good! I like to get a little festive so i always end up making my costumes when I go everywhere. Joann’s Fabrics is one of my favorite craft stores because I love to buy tons of sparkly fabrics and ribbons and put together something amazing. For Mid-Summer Night’s Dream, you would think greens, blues, and fairies, so I decided to go with teal, and use gold ribbon and white gems. I came out with an outfit that looked a little mermaid-ish but it was hot! Here’s the photos!

the security guy gave us a ride to check in

picture came out kinda dark

Stephen Hampton Paris' New BFF and @ Ecco in Hollywood after he won!

To celebrate the win of my fellow BFF contestant, Stephen Hampton, Elena came to L.A. and we all went out to Hollywood! We went to TMF Tuesdays at Ecco Ultra lounge hosted by PartyTilAM of course and had a blast dancing to electro/house music. The DJ’s were amazing, including DJ Wendy City and DJ Mr White! We requested Paris Hilton’s Stars are Blind but they didn’t have it. I haven’t seen Elena since filming the finale of the show so I was so excited to see her! She looked great as always and of course we both arrived fashionably late because we had to fix our makeup and hair for hours. Stephen came with Daniel, Donna and Jimmy, and Elena came with Chris Gayla a lacoste model, and Stacey Owens our production girl from Paris BFF! I was so so surprised to see her because we were not filming! It was a BFF reunion for sure so we took tons of photos. Here’s some of them and I’m sure I’ll find some more on the web later. When we got out there were some papparazzi already waiting outside for us and they took some shots of us walking out to our cars. It was like an experience and kind of weird to me! Stephen is def a star. Love you cutie pie! Wish Paris was there with us! We miss u P!

Paris BFFs dancing on our table @ Cathouse!

The bffs and I went to vegas again, but this time we weren’t being filmed, and it was only Stephen, Nicole, Onch, and myself. Onch was hosting a HUGE party at the Cathouse and he was nice enough to invite the three of us to his party! It was so much different than when Vegas on the show because now the BFF’s and I are so close we can seriously talk about almost anything.

Remember this? Shooting BFF 2

I was so excited even before going to Vegas, I tweeted all day about it, so I’m sure tons of you have heard or seen my tweets about us going! We got in to Vegas in the afternoon on Sunday and we immediately changed to our daytime outfits to attend the pool party @ the Luxor. Nicole forgot her bikini, but I brought mine! Always bring a bikini to vegas, no matter how short u stay, because the pools are seriously one of the best parts of Vegas! At XS on sunday nights, its a HUGEEE pool party, meaning you can wear ur bikini all day and all night! I’d change bikinis in between though! So we went to the Luxor pool party sponsored by Rockstar energy drink, but It took us a while to find the pool but one of the workers showed us the way. We got Rockstar trucker hats and talked to people at the pool and took tons of photos!

Me, Stephen, Daniel, Nicole, TJ, and Onch in the front @ the Pool Party!

So glad I brought my bikini, it was 114 degrees in Vegas!

took a pic in front of cathouse!

We got there kind of late so most of the people were leaving but it was great to catch a few of the pool party animals and take photos with them! Afterwards we went back to our rooms and got ready for our fabulous night! Oh btw we got all of our rooms next to each other, which was hot! Nicole and I got individual rooms but we decided to room together in one, because we get lonely, haha. Stephen brought his friend Daniel too and their room was right next to us! After we got our hot outfits on, we went to eat dinner at Okada at the Wynn.

Our view outside of our private dinner table area!

The restaurant provided us with a private dinner room with a view of the waterfall, we felt so VIP. That’s where we met Steve Haas and Supi, who own many hot boutiques called Solis in Vegas, SF, and L.A! The restaurant is right next to the club Tryst, it was so fancy and beautiful. I ordered an ahi salad, sushi rolls, some chicken yakitori, different appetizers, and we also got some cocktails! It was Japanese so I totally helped everyone order!

Black prawn as an appetizer - does that look good to you?

2 orders of Salmon Nigiri Sushi- Nigiri always comes in 2, in case you didn't know

Okada Roll, Spicy Tuna on top and Shrimp Tempura on the inside

Rainbow roll in front, the other one is a Dragon Roll

I love that part about being at a Japanese restaurant, because I totally know what to order and people ask me to help them! I love being helpful for once, lol. I wore a sparkly dress that night from bebe and my black patent leather louboutin stilettos.

Dress: Bebe, Shoes: Christian Louboutin, Bracelet & Earrings Forever 21

Kim Kardashian on the set of MTV's It's on with Alexa Chung

For those of you who saw me on Paris BFF, most of you guys have made tons of compliments about my clothes. Well, I’m a girl and I love clothes and fashion is one of my priorities. I’m already starting to fall into the FALL craze, because I’ve already spent tons and tons of money buying every summer dress, cute swimsuit, and flat rhinestone sandals out there! Booties are back and Caged Booties are the “It” thing. I remember Paris wearing the YSL Caged Shoes in one of the BFF episodes and I also saw them in her closet!

YSL Caged Boot worn by Paris Hilton

Givenchy Black Leather Ankle Boots $819.00

But then, after I made my purchase I looked around even more…

Guess who has them for even cheaper?….

Steve Madden!

Steve Madden Salline Black Caged Ankle Boots 119.95 SteveMadden.com

then.. of course, fashion always ends up trickling down to the cheaper boutiques…

the imitations start becoming less closely resembled to the original but I even found them at wet seal!

Wet Seal Cut Out Peep Toe Bootie $32.50

So there you go, Kim Kardashian’s Wednesday look starting at 32.50 from Wetseal.com! The parachute pants you can find at department stores such as Nordstrom’s Barney’s Bloomies, or any boutique, and the off the shoulder teal shirt you can find at Forever 21. You too can look like Kim Kardash!

Eminem

Mariah Carey with her hit new single "Obsessed"

So the song has leaked, and we all know there was something going on with Eminem & Mariah Carey and both parties are definitely not happy at all! I’m a complete music junkie and I’ve always loved Eminem, and Mariah Carey. I was never a fan of Eminem’s anger, but I felt that his beats to his rap songs were always catchy and upbeat and he was so talented with his ‘flow.’ He definitely has a darker style than most rappers that rap about poppin’ bottles and rollin’ on 24″ rims. His music definitely has a lot of emotion from his personal life experiences and his songs clearly show that he is not an extremely happy, positive person! Especially in this song to Mariah Carey! He wrote a song in reaction to her hit new single “Obesssed” featuring Gucci Mane which where she sings “why you so obsessed wit me, Boy I wanna know… lyin’ that you’re sexin’ me, when everybody knows it’s clear that you’re upset with me” and claims this man is “delusional.” It’s a girly song that I blast in my car all day long and it’s and blowing up on the radio, but Eminem reacted to it big time! Not sure if they were really hooking up but if you look closely at the Music Video Gucci Mane is wearing a 1017 chain and october 17th is Eminem’s birthday. Coincidence? I don’t think so. I’m sure they were totally hooking up secretly, and are trying to get back at eachother through songs. At least “Obsessed” is doing well! It’s even my Myspace song at the moment. Here are the lyrics below to the Eminem song called “The Warning.” Obviously he’s super mad at her but when I read the lyrics I was so shocked by the extreme anger and bitterness toward her. I would seriously cry if he rapped that to me! Actually it would be kind of flattering that he wrote an entire song to me, lol. Here are the lyrics, but if you are easily offended, STOP READING NOW.

“The Warning” by Eminem

Only reason I dissed you in the first place is because you denied seeing me
Now I’m pissed off
Sit back and relax homey, kick back and relax, grab a six pack while I kick s
Yeah Dre’s sick track, perfect way to get back
Wanna hear something wick wack?
I got the exact same tattoo that’s on Nick’s back
I’m obsessed now
Oh gee, is that supposed to be me in the video with the goatee
Wow Mariah, I didn’t expect her to go balls out
Bitch, shut the fu*ck up before I put all them phone calls out you
made to my house when you was wild n out before Nick
When you was on my di*ck and give you somethin to smile about
How many times you fly to my house? Still trying to count
Better shut your lying mouth if you don’t want Nick finding out
You probably think since it’s been so long if i had something on you I
woulda did it by now
On the contrary, Mary Poppins, I’m mixing our studio session down and
sending it to mastering to make it loud
Enough dirt on you to murder you
This is what the fu*ck I do
Mariah, it ever occur to you that I still have pictures?
However you prefer to do and goes for you too, Nick, you got
You think I’m scared of you?
You gonna ruin my career you better get one
Like I’ma sit and fight with you over some slut bitch cu*nt who made
me put up with her psycho ******* over 6 months and only spread her
legs to let me hit once
Yeah, what you gonna say? I’m lucky? Tell the public that I was so
ugly that you had to be drunk to me?
Second base? What the fu*ck you tell Nick, punk?
In the second week we was dry humping. It’s gotta count for something.
Listen, girly. Surely you don’t want me to talk about how I nutted
early cos ejaculated early and bus all over your belly, and you almost
started hurling and said I was gross, go get a towel you’re stomachs
curling. Or maybe you do.
But if I’m embarrassing me, I’m embarrassing you and don’t you dare
say it isn’t true.
As long as the song’s getting airplay I’m dissing you.
I’m a hair away from getting carried away and getting sued.
I was gonna stop at 16. This is 32. This is 34 bars. We ain’t even a
third of the way through.
*******, Slim. Mariah played you. Mariah who?
Oh did I say ”whore”, Nick? I meant a liar too.
Like I’ve been goin off on you all this time for no reason.
Girl you out ya alcholic mind. Check ya wine cellar. Look at all the
amounts of wine.
Like I sit around and think about you all the time.
I just think this is funny when I pounce you on a rhyme.
But it now i’m about to draw the line.
And for you to cross it that’s a mountain that I doubt you wanna climb.

I can describe areas of your house that you wouldn’t find on an episode of Cribs
A blubba load ribs (?) so don’t go opening your jibs cos every time
you do it’s just another load of fibs
I ain’t saying this shi*t again, ho. You know what it is.
It’s a warning shot for before I blow up ya whole spot
Call my bluff and I’ll release every fuck*ing thing I got
Including the voicemails right before you flipped your top
When me and Luis were tryin’ to stick two CD’s in the same spot
(Slim Shady ?????? I love you)
I love you too
Let me whisper sweet nothings into your ear, boo. Now what you say?
(It’s nothing)
Guess what I’ll do?
I’ll refresh your memory when you said ”I want you”
Now should I keep going or should we call truce?
(You think you’re cute, right? Hahaha)
You bet your sweet ******* I do
(I’m Mary Poppins, b)
And I’m Superman, mmm
(Mary P. Slim Shady)
Comin’ at you
So if you’ll still be my (babygirl)
Then I’ll still be your (Superhero, Wilma M.)
Yeah, I’m right here
(You like this)
Nope. Not anymore, Dear.
It cuts like a (knife) when I tell ya get a (life)
But I’m movin on with mine
Nick, is that your (wife)
Well tell her to shut her mouth then I’ll leave her alone
If she don’t (sing this script?) then I’ma just keep goin
(I see Mary Ann. Mary Ann’s saying ”cut the tape, cut the tape”. Knife!)

Phew! That was a lot. Kind of scary yeah? What are your thoughts?!
