FM Satellites – Episode 23

FM SATELLITES – Episode 23

A few weeks back Far East Movement was in the San Francisco Bay Area for the 2010 Asian Heritage Street Celebration. Not only did they do a show for the community, but they also went all out for some giving high school students. For the past four years, these high schoolers raised funds and donated it to Kenya. With that Cupertino High School in the Bay Area won a SUPER PROM from Dell Computers, so they were taken on a yacht to an unknown destination and surprised with the craziest prom imaginable with Common, Lil Jon, DJ Erock and the Far East Movement. Cupertino High is now Free Wired… Later that night FM hit up a large club in SF, Ruby Skye, as well. Do these guys sleep? Three fingers up for FM for supporting the Asian American community and the kids.

Like a G6 is now spinning in the Bay Area. Request it on your local radio stations

Dirty Little Secrets – Episode 1 & 2

Dirty Little Secrets - Episode 1 & 2

The first 2 episodes of Dirty Little Secrets is out. Look for stylist Jeanie Syfu as one of the key characters along with the motion graphics animation of Annie Wu. All aboard this fashionable roller coaster! Riley Kendrick kicks off the drama of Dirty Little Secret with a dramatic breakdown backstage at Fashion Week inside Lincoln Center.

Thoughts from Jeanie Syfu on Episode 1:
Dirty Little Secret begins with Riley running to my chair at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, wanting me to cut off all of her hair. This might sound dramatic, but it happens all the time. The cause is usually an awful break-up with a boyfriend, and the woman wants a new identity. It can be empowering to get a new look and a sign of new beginnings. If I can help women do that, I’m all for it! I don’t always agree with how drastic some want to go, but I can usually gauge how far to take it so that they feel beautiful.

Dirty Little Secrets – Episode 1

Now that Riley knows that the new boss (Lauren Bell) at her dream job and her new boyfriend are exes, she must decide whether to tell her secret. She runs to her best friend Malina for advice and makes her painful decision.

Thoughts from Jeanie Syfu on Episode 2:
I can totally understand Riley’s dread of giving up a dream job as a stylist in the fashion world. I love my job as TRESemmé Celebrity Stylist! What I like the most is the freedom. No two days are the same, as I spend my time with amazing people all over the city and world. I collaborate with other creative minds towards a common goal, from getting celebs looking their best for the red carpet to shooting magazine covers. I also enjoy sharing my knowledge on fashion and hair. Those are the secrets I like to share, not the ones clients spill in my chair.
