So on August 1st, T-Mobile had a big red carpey event in LA for the new Tony Hawk special edition of the Sidekick LX, meaning there were cameras... and where their are cameras Tila Tequila is sure to follow.

It turns out the media whore was being suprisingly literal, showing up at the event to talk up her new book "Hooking (up) with Tila Tequila": Via TheCellFreak

Another day, another batch of pictures leaked from Miley Cyrus' cell phone.

Dipping back into the same reservoir of stolen pictures he scammed from T-Mobile, Train Req who may also go by the alias K Dollars, released another three Miley Cyrus pictures, this time featuring her in a skimpy blue polka dot bikini and skin tight booty shorts panties. Via TheCellFreak

Soul singer Donny Hathaway is the reason I spell my name with a "y" and not an "ie." His songs reflect a lot of the troubles I go through while still making me feel hopeful. He deals with fear, acceptance, death, faith – things that aren't just on my mind, but on the minds of many young people. He sings and writes songs from a real and vulnerable place, motivating me to do the same with my writing.

If We Ruled the World

The more cynical side of me thinks nothing major will be different by 2015. People will be people, government will be government and Oprah will be king. But if I could have it my way (like another king says), it would go some thing like this (cue the wavy daydream lines):

The war is over. All over the world, mothers and fathers get their sons and daughters back from war zones. In my vision of 2015, the war will have been over for some years, but it won't be far from the minds of young Americans. We won't forget the time when we fought a war for the wrong reasons. The "vacuum effect" many pro-war supporters predicted never happened and the Iraqi government is self-sustaining. America is popular again and is no longer seen as the country equivalent of Britney Spears: the one hot girl that everyone admired until something went terribly wrong. We are no longer seen as the nation that hurts before it helps. We prove this to the world by starting at home: We rebuild New Orleans (all of it!!). We do our very best to kick our oil addiction. It's very hard for us, but we take it one day at a time. The greatest gains will be made by the youth: Young people will continue to build powerful communities on-line, and create their own form of honest media. The power that we gained by so radically changing the outcome of the 2008 election will inspire us to become even more involved. Candidates will no longer ignore us and youth media will host the most important debates in upcoming elections. We will use our power wisely and the world will be a better place.

Don't forget to tune into Larry King Live on CNN tonight at 9PM ET to catch Christina Aguilera and our Executive Director Heather Smith, as they talk about the youth vote and Christina's new PSA.
