Glee's Fashion Night Out

The cast of Glee performing "Fashion" by David Bowie in their Fashion Night Out 2011 music video for Vogue.

This music video was shot while the Glee cast was in London during their tour. Naya Rivera and Amber Riley both did not participate in this video because they were both sick. Their options were to either participate in the shooting of this music video and not perform in the show they had later that night, or rest up and be able to perform in the show. They obviously chose to rest and perform in the show. Chord Overstreet is in this video because they didn't know at the time that he wouldn't be returning to the third season of Glee.

Agyness Deyn reveals her first heartbreak

Elfin Manc' beauty Agyness Deyn has opened her heart, and her tear ducts, in the latest fashion film from Dr Martens. Co-starring the also very appropriately English Ash Stymfest, the film takes us through a deep confessional from Aggy as she gives us run-down of her first heartbreak.
Don't worry it doesn't get too soft, it's still a video for Dr. Martens…
Think This Is England with a truly romantic love story, subtract the racial themes and add slightly more piano.

Message from Pukkelpop...

"Pukkelpop is in deep mourning. We truly sympathise with the families and friends of the victims. Words are not enough. We have struggled with the decision to continue the festival. Therefore we have decided to cancel Pukkelpop 2011.
What has happened is very exceptional and could not have been predicted. We are deeply moved by all the spontaneous support the festival goers and the organisation have received.

We call on all Pukkelpoppers to return home calmly. Extra buses and trains have been organised to bring everybody home.
Undoubtedly many of you have many practical questions. That is why we ask you to direct them to info@pukkelpop.be.
We ask everyone to understand that this decision was extremely difficult to make."

Dyptich Series - Jérôme Latteur @ Bozar

In 2007 the Belgian photographer Jérôme Latteur found inspiration for a series of diptychs in the Centre for Fine Arts. Dreamlike interiors in black and white can be seen alongside monochrome pictures that zoom in on material textures. Jérôme Latteur’s work offers an unexpected angle on the ingeniousness of Horta’s architecture and handling of detail.
