Between the 22nd and 31st of July, I spent one week in France, with a weekend in Paris. I've caught up with my parents, my sister, Mimytos (Emilie), Chécy, Intermarché, Orléans (I was gutted, we had decided to go clubbing on sunday and everything was closed!), my bigsister, Nathalia, the dogs, the cats... It was good to chill out in the countryside and catch up with everyone...
And then I saw Paris, I've been to my former job, eclosion.net, we've been clubbing with my ex-coworkers, I hung around in the Marais with some people from Dégel. I mean, it was really cool. Paris still got this inalterable charm.

In the series "horror on the tube"... I was sleepy on the tube like everyday before going to work when I saw something horrible. A japonese guy had just entered the train. He was wearing a small white shirt, had a perfect skin and an original haircut with some blonde locks behind. That was him! That was the evil guy in Bioman!!! He had exactly the same attitude like "I rule the world". He sat in front of me, with the same arrogant attitude. Please, look at yourself, Bioman!
Liz Hurley on the cover of Grazia: "I go through hell to look this good".
What? Are we supposed to cry?
There's a graphic designer I really love, it's JP33. I like his "iconographic" touch, and this poster of a rainbow is great. If you want to but it for me, you can do it online. ;-)

In july, Emilie et Cyril came to visit me at home, from thursday night to sunday morning. I won't be able to show you a lot of pictures since Emilie hasn't sent me hers yet. Anyway.
The night they arrived, I brought them home but I took the wrong train. I was so ashamed! Then we got home and we drank until 4am, I reckon.
The day after, I went to work while they were visiting the town and on the evening, we went to the Ghetto, a very good "alternative" gay nightclub in Soho. The music and the atmosphere were good, even though all the guys went to Ada, instead of going to me. I guess I'll never understand what happened that night.
The day after, we spent the day together, we went to Camden Town and then we walked by the Thames and we joined Ada and her friends in a pub at Elephant and Castle and we planned to go the 333 that night. The choice was actually bad given that the DJ was playing only slow songs and dared playing Mylo in slow motion! It's only around 4am that he decided to put on some Soulwax, in normal motion. We went home really tired and there was only little time before Emilie and Cyril leave.
The morning after, Emilie left sooner to meet someone at the station and then Cyril and I went there. And then they left. :-(
But Emilie is likely to settle in London in the next few months. :-)
Do you know Jordan? She was some kind of glamour model in the 90ies. And then her career was not good enough for her so she used and abused from cosmetic surgery, provoking outfits and tabloid scandals. Lately, she married the singer Peter André and wrote her autobiography that was a best seller. So she released a novel, "Angel", with her real name Katie Price. And this is what we attended for the book launch:
The only thing that I can think of when I see that is... why??? I agree with the fact that she wanna do something matching the title of the book, but the so fake-looking wings? Why the ridiculously enormous hair extensions? Why a transparent dress showing her bra and her thong? Why such a horrible belt? God really mustn't exist to allow such things.
I love bitching about people. Especially dull stars. I don't like bitching about people's look. But given that stars use their look to get famous, I mean that they are not talented and they use their sex-appeal to reach success, I'm willing to use their look against them and totally humiliate them. And that's exactly what "Go Fug Yourself" does! It's a blog written by two women living in Los Angeles who spend their time criticizing the stars' styles. And that's absolutely delicious.
You know Jessica Simpson? She's some kind of a totally stupid singer-actress. A few years ago, she was considered as Britney's rival, when that one was still famous. Jessica Simpson is a blonde preaching for virginity before marriage. And on "Go Fug Yourself", you can see how far she's been to prove it:
No, it's not the picture for "the World's most horrifying pets!", it actually is Jessica Simpson, with an awful wig, a playmate-like outfit and Photoshop effects over the top.
But don't worry, Jessica may be their favourite target, many other stars end up on their website as well, such as Kate Bosworth, Jodie Marsh and of course Britney. Click on the pictures to and have fun!

During the game Brazil/France, we entered the Bar Soho to watch, we were surrounded with Brazilians and French, boys and girls, straight and gays... And France won!

For the EuroPride, Soho was a real mess. It was filled with people, DJs and beer cans. There was also fucked up drag queens under ecstasy shouting: "I've never felt this way before!". We found Ada's brazilian friends whom we spent the rest of the day with. I've kept on telling them we would win but they wouldn't believe me: "France is crap!".
Then, we went to dance when I stared at the illustration of a tee shirt of a guy until I realized that this guy was a handsome dark-haired man with the awesomest smile ever.
I was stunned. I nearly jumped on him to ask him how he was doing and he told me he was alright and asked me what I thought about his tee shirt and I answered it was good and asked him what it represented and he told me it was brazilian and I asked him what were his plans for the night and he told me he was going to the RUBY night at Canvas with his... boyfriend! Who, furthermore, was just beside!!! GUTTED!
Fortunately, Ada arrived and enabled me to flee.

July 1st, one week after the french GayPride occurred the EuroPride in London, which is the GayPride at the european level!
With Ada, we hurried to attend the March that was going from Marylebone to Embankment, passing by Oxford Circus, Trafalgar Square and Big Ben. But actually, once there, we realized that, curiously, there wasn't so many people. The floats were parading so fast! We followed one and we arrived at Embankment in one hour!
So it was quite disappointing for a "Pride". However, London in famous for being the first gay city in Europe, with all its gays, its gay clubs and its tolerance. Maybe guys don't care about that and were all already in Soho.
