It's The Lights, You're Blinded By The Action...

Right now I'm just trying to kill time. I'm downtown and my trains at 11:30. I hadda whack morning. Let's not talk about that. I'm in the GB computer lab where Champion Archers are born, lol.

I never been on Kanye's blog in a while. I thought this photograph was pretty cool. It features two of our biggest fashion icons; super model Kate Moss and fashion designer Marc Jacobs together with Justin Timberlake, a 'fashion icon' in his own right as well. It's from the May issue of Vogue and shot by photographer Annie Leibovitz...



Leibovitz is a photographer of celebrities. She does work for many different renowned magazines including the aforementioned Vogue and Vanity Fair. She's also responsible for the super famous John Lennon and Yoko Ono cover for Rolling Stone magazine.

Here's some more of her work for Vogue...

(Fist Lady, Michelle Obama)

Leibovitz is also responsible for a lot of pivtures from The Hollywood Issue for Vanity Fair. Here's a couple photos from her and Vanity Fair...

For 2009, Leibovitz paired actor and director of this year's Oscar nominees, as well as, upcoming movies...


(Danny Boyle and Dev Patel of Slumdog Millionaire)

Don't mean to sound like I'm bandwaggonning, but WATCH THIS MOVIE!; I did see this before the sweep so I'm not on the waggon anyway lol. But yeah Slumdog Millionaire watch iiit.


(From The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan and the late Heath Ledger)


(Ron Howard and Tom Hanks from movies like; Apollo 13, The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons)



(April 2003 Hollywood issue; Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Jack Nicholson, Brad Pitt, Edward Norton, Jude Law, Samuel L. Jackson, Don Cheadle, Hugh Grant, Dennis Quaid, Ewan McGregor, and Matt Damon)

Above is probably one of the most epic photos I've seen. Photographer of the celebrities indeed.


(April 2004 Hollywood Issue; Julianne Moore, Jennifer Connelly, Gwyneth Paltrow, Naomi Watts, Salma Hayek, Jennifer Aniston, Kirsten Dunst, Diane Lane, Lucy Liu, Hilary Swank, Alison Lohman, Scarlett Johansson, and Maggie Gyllenhaal)


(March 2007: Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, Chris Rock, and Jack Black)

Some what similar to the above pic; she also did the photoshoot for this years Hollywood Issue featuring the new legends of comedy.

While looking through her work my favorite pictures are form the 2007 Hollywood Portfolio for Vanity Fair. She uses a bunch celebrities to tell the story of Killers Kill, Dead Men Die. Imagine if everyone in the shoot was really in one movie!?!?! That's an expensive bill...

(Tobey Maguire once again, now he's playing the piano by Jessica Alba. Dianne Lane and James Franco are by the window while Robert Downey Jr. and Kirsten Dunst sneaking around behind the bookselves)
