Music Videos:
First off, I gotta support my peers and the people I've been working with:
-My boy Kobe aka Kokilla - catch him singing the hook in the Jim Jones video "Love Me No More". (FYI: he wrote the hook that Akon sing's in 50 Cent's "I'll Still Kill") You can also see Kobe in a couple of my RORY STORY Videos.
-Lady GaGa - "Just Dance" feat both Colby O'Donis AND my good friend/choreographer Richard Jackson (but i'd be supporting her and this video even if the weren't in it, cuz GaGa works it!!)
ANYTHING by these ladies: Yelle, Kate Nash, Lily Allen, Robyn... i love Calvin Harris' videos as well.
Hobbies:
"N. activity or interest pursued outside one's regular occupation and engaged in primarily for pleasure." --- well, see, now that's though because I made most of my hobbies a part of my occupation.... but i guess some of my hobbies would be: sleep, dance parties, themed parties, traveling by train, bowling, trying to see my friends more, not getting sick, laughing as often as I can....
Magazines/Books:
Quotes:
"Art is taking risks" --- "when you go for the heart expect blood" --- "a broken clock can still be right at least twice a day"

Straight
Relationship Status:
total romantic with very little time
Religion:
"If god is a DJ, then life is a dance floor...."
Dance Style:
Throw your hands in the air like you just don't care
Most Hated Songs:
anything that's been over produced, anything where it sounds like someone isn't singing but has been auto-tuned to death, anything that lacks lyrical content and/or means something....there's a lot of weak stuff out there that gets a lot more attention than it deserves...
Obsessions:
Honesty. Wit. Creativity. Drive. Passion. Style. DIY. Having a point-of-view.
