DIPLO FINDS HIMSELF IN AN AWKWARD SITUATION

We Are: The Guardians! Can you believe August is over? We’ve got a big one today for you beautiful people. The VMAs were this week so we’re taking you behind the scenes, making a brief stop at Afropunk and ending our journey at church. No. I’m not kidding. Shall we?

 

WHY WON’T THEY KISS?

Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes blue-balled their fanbase yet AGAIN with their steamy performance of “Señorita” at the VMAs. And at this moment, we were ALL Sophia Turner and Joe Jonas.

 

DIPLO’S AWKWARD SEATING SITUATION

Random White Dude Be Everywhere. Diplo was nearly left out in the cold at the VMAs but the Hadid sisters came to the rescue! (Allegedly…)

 

WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT NORMANI

I have been blasting “Motivation” since Normani premiered it, and you can bet your ass I have been mimicking her dance moves in the club. Is she the best thing to come out of Fifth Harmony? I know she’s just broke through, but all signs point to DUH.

 

HER’S RED CARPET PET

Was this an homage to the Britney Spears era of VMA looks or is HER just a giant reptile fan? I just can’t tell!

 

KACEY’S GLAMOUR SHOTS

We were just in LA and needed to find a One Hour Photo place quick. Sandwiched between little bodegas, my sister randomly found this place on Beverly Blvd in Korea Town called Tom’s One Hour Photo & Lab. It’s one of those rare mom-&-pop gems that has lasted thru trends coming and going and weirdly has come back around again without even realizing it. The owner, Tom, was SO adorable. He not only does film developing but (cheap) and nostalgic portrait sessions too. (He gave us digital files and we edited these but he’ll shoot on film if you ask him to.) Pick your favorite background! He made them all himself.  It’s cash only and he has no internet. He sadly told us his business used to be really busy back in 1991 when he opened but has slowed way down since the digital wave. So, like any good millennials would do we started an appreciation Instagram for him. @tomsonehourphotolab  Not sure he’ll even see this. Stop by, tell all your friends, and don’t forget to tag. Let’s keep this charming business afloat! #TomsOneHourPhoto

Kacey Musgraves just blew up the photo lab down my street in Los Angeles Koreatown. Business is booming for Tom, and Kacey is about to revive 90’s style glamour shoots. I’m in.

 

TIERRA WHACK AT AFROPUNK

Tierra Whack brought out Alicia Keys for her performance at Afropunk Brooklyn and if I thought I couldn’t love her more….

 

LANA’S AN ICE CREAM MAN NOW

Lana’s album is out and she’s celebrating by partaking in her new side hustle: serving ice cream and vinyls across the coast. Can you think of anything more Lana Del Rey than that?

Bryson Tiller is just like the rest of us — pigging out at country fairs and refusing to share a bucket of cookies. Look at that smile!

 

TAYLOR TOOTS HER OWN HORN

In true T Swift fashion, Taylor wanted YOU to know that her new album is good and that the media might be finished trashing her. Hey, I’d post receipts too if I were her.

 

JUSTIN BEIBER’S GOING TO CHURCH

Justin is going through a hard time (didn’t he JUST get married though?) and may have found God according to his caption. Jokes aside, this is sweet. Hope you find what you’re looking for, Justin!

Happy Labor Day, kiddos! I’ll see you soon!
