The Bombshell's VIDA LOCA.......

HHHHHeeeellllllooooooo my faithfuls!!!!!! If you are just now tuning into my affairs let me warn you, I get into some shit! Most of the time I happen to fall into some dope shit, and meet dope people... but every so often I just fall into some shit! March 17th marked the birthdays of my bestie for life Jessica and my Bombshell Cartel member Anna. So in our usual black "sex and the city" style we stepped out friday night for a Dwele show at the very posh Yoshi's in san francisco! I was LATE.... smh like always but we all looked fanatasic and Dwele put on a wonderful show!!! Feeling like my old party girl self I was down to hit another event or two after Dwele ended.... and it just so happened that I got a inside line to two events. The old homie Dj Franzen was in town and spinning in SF as well so off we smashed to stop by and say hi!! Then it was off to Oakland, for the Pisces bash where I was in dire need of some shots! Two shots of Ciroc and 1 shot of patron later..it was time to head on home. Pretty innocent and uneventful right until I took my exit and got pulled over!!! 0_O I was not swerving or driving in a suspesions matter by the own accord of the officer he merely saw me doing the "weave pat" and decided to pull me over(clearly he was not black). Two officers and a slew of soberity tests later I was axiously awaiting in the back of a warm police car to take the breath alazyer test, completely praying that I was not gonna be the first time that I experience handcuffs. After embarrassing the officiers a bit, I blow and we all look to see what numbers pop up on the screen. .078 second blow .075 .... under the legal limit by a smidge but not out of the realm of trouble... my licence is suspended. Gratefully , my willingness to cooperate and cheerful demeanor I was able to call a ride and get picked up, just for safety. Needless to say I won't be testing my luck anymore!!!!
Here are some images ... Also I had an amazing test shoot with 510 Media photographer Nana... can't wait for the actually shoot...





Damn almost forgot about my life giving Tuesday night after my test shoot at the "Bet Music Matters" event at 1015 coordinated by Mr. Je...

I'm an Expert......

So last month I was approached by a photographer to give my advice and share my expericences on being an "non-agency" model. Well my experiences, advice and tips are featured in an E-book entitled.. "The Aspiring Models Guide to Self-promotion" by L.J. Black.

This ebook is completely free and definitely gives you a nice picture of what you may face and how to get your self-promo going.

Hi...I'm The Bombshell ...and I have 'Fro Envy!! Nice to meet you..!!




I made a decision back on the 21st of October, 2009, to do something different with her hair. As a young Bombshell I discovered how much I enjoyed changing my hairstyle, it was like a small form of dress up, so I constantly changed my hair. The reason why this decision I made was so major that I remember the date is because for the first time since I was 5 years old, I decided to go au natural. Well, okay, I cheated and attempted to transition for a bit, I did a texturizer. I then rang in the New Year with No chemical at all, 2010 I decided to stop all chemicals. By early July 2010 I did a mini-Big Chop and cut away the last of the remaining chemical from my ends. My hair was so short I could barely pull my hair back into a little "puff." It was a very vain period in the "natural hair" journey. Let's just say, lacefronts, half wigs and full wigs became my over used accessory. Another Year began and it was time to see a natural hair stylist and get over my newly developed "stylist" fear. Ms. thang washed, deep conditioned, colored, cut and flat ironed the hell out of my hair..and I was loving my decision!! Not only while it was straight..but the length of my coils when I finally washed my hair. Pictures below!!!










I have also developed a serious case of "Fro" envy... see the natural beauties I am gunning for...




Ms. Janelle Monae




Ms. Esperanza Spalding


My ultimate "Fro " admiration and envy goes to... Ms. YaYa Da Costa.... Damn..
