Setting the record straight!
Current mood: aggravated
Category: Jobs, Work, Careers

Ok, it is very sad that I actually have to write a blog like this, but here goes.

I need to set the record straight here.  Things are getting WAY, I mean WAY out of hand, and I feel it's necessary to say MY SIDE of the story (there's always 2 sides right?)

So let's start with what I DON'T DO:

1.  I don't shoot nudes, implied nudes, pornography or anything of the sorts.  At most I do lingerie shots.  I am sorry I shot with a person that is involved in that profession, but I was fully clothed and never did ANYTHING to suggest that I would want ANYTHING to do in that industry.  I even emailed the photographerMORE THAN ONCE, to make sure that I would NOT be involved in that, which I was GUARANTEED that this photographer was NOT involved in that aspect as well....ONLY TO FIND OUT LATER (from one of their models) that he actually FILMS THE MOVIES!!!!!!  WTF?  Why lie to me?????  You knew from the VERY BEGINNING I wanted NOTHING to do with that industry...and UNFORTUNATELY by shooting and associating with people in that profession it has become ASSUMED that I WANT, or DESIRE to be involved in that profession.  (side note: if you are involved in that profession, good for you.  I am married with kids, and prefer to keep my clothes ON....I can make money other ways!)  SO, setting the record straight....I DO NOT SHOOT NUDE, IMPLIED NUDE, OR PORNOGRAPHY!  Please don't associate my name with it!

2.  I do NOT get people's myspace pages deleted.  I have been told by a few people that I am ACCUSED of getting people's pages deleted.  COME ON!  I have WAY too much going on in my life to worry about other people's lives.  Seriously.....you give me WAY too much credit!  I don't care what you do.  This town is DEFINATELY big enough for all of us......mind your own business.  If you spent as much time on YOUR business as you do mine, then you might be going somewhere too!     Also, my page got deleted once too....I have no idea why, I just tried to log on one day and it was GONE.  IT HAPPENS....obviously for no fucking reason.  But DO NOT accuse me of shit I DO NOT DO.....

3.  I do NOT steal people's work.  You know who you are!!!!  I also do NOT go around lying about the work I have done!  You can NOT tell people you were a part of something that you were not a part of....it looks tacky!  You lost the work you speak of because of your record (it is PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE) and your "extracurricular activities".  Yes, we saw your add on craigslist!  Shit like that gets around!  You have NO IDEA of who we know.  And it's really sad! 

4.  AND finally to answer the call of the JEALOUSY CHARGES......oh wait....first let me laugh my fucking ass off!!!!!!!  LMAO!  Jealous....of you?  LMFAO!!!!!  HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!  Ok, sorry...better finish typing while I can.....what the fuck do I have to be jealous of???  You now know I did NOT delete your page (why, what would I have to gain by doing that anyways, did you think of that???)  And I don't steal your work (again, referenced above) and I do NOT worry myself with what you do.......so leave me the fuck alone!!!

So, for those of you who have NO IDEA what is going on....I apologize...but now you know my side of the story, well maybe not my side of the story, but at least my "response" to such ridiculous charges.  The ONLY mistake I have made so far in my modeling career was associating with "not so honest" people and believing in people and really trying to help.

So....with that said....PLEASE MOVE ON!  You have PLENTY of work to do yourself, don't worry about what my company and I do.  We are not even in competition with each other.....so what's your problem?  Maybe instead of writing blogs and accusing people of shit they did not do, you should focus your attention and time on your stuff.  I don't worry myself with you, why do you worry yourself with me/us???  It really is a waste of your time. 

Oh yeah...and I will NOT out this person/company.  This will remain between us....but you know who you are.  This is not a personal attack against you (as I never mentioned your names) and such.  I am just telling what REALLY happened and answering the charges you put forth.

JEALOUS BITCHES (updated!)
Current mood: aggravated
Category: Friends

Ok, so I feel a little rant coming on, and it's definately been coming for some time.  What the hell is it with WOMEN?  I mean seriously!  I know I am a woman, and I just can't figure them out myself!  (guys, I feel for ya).

Now, there is ONE specific type of woman I am talking about (and I personally can NOT STAND!)......yep, you read the subject of the blog: JEALOUS BITCHES!

Jealousy is just ONE emotion that I have absolutely NO TIME FOR!  Seriously, how in the hell does one live with that emotion in their body?  It can't be healthy that's for sure.  I mean, how in the world do you live everyday, always consumed with hate and misery, always thinking that some other woman wants your man?  OH MY GOD!  If some other woman finds your man attractive, why not embrace that?  It lets you know that you have good tastes right?  And just because another woman finds your man attractive DOES NOT MEAN that your man feels the same about her.  It ALSO DOES NOT MEAN that your man wants to SLEEP with her!  Seriously, for those type of women out there, do you HONESTLY think that you are the best looking thing alive?  Or that there are NOT better looking, sexier women than yourself?  If so, then I suggest you stop reading now, because you make me sick!

Now, for those still with me here....thanks!  I bet you are thinking to yourself, DAMN RIGHT!  She's onto something here!  LOL!  Thanks for that too!  Now, let me get into another section of this, not just jealous bitches, but for the ones with men in bands, or just the music industry altogether.

There are a few situations that come to mind when I think about women getting jealous at shows or backstage.  OBVIOUSLY, if I write specifically about those, then these crazy girls will go all whiny and bitchy on me saying I was talking about them (I am SO NOT ABOUT DRAMA!  GET OVER IT!)  Anyways, here is what I am thinking about these "generic" situations.......

1. If your man is in a band, you HAVE to deal with women finding them attractive.  COME ON!  What woman does NOT have a small fantasy about a rock star?  We all do.  So you need to deal with groupies and you need to deal with your man kind of going a bit overboard about all the attention.  IF, and honestly IF, you can not deal with that.....then you need to get out of that relationship and find yourself a 9 to 5er.

2. IF there are groupies and chics that REALLY believe in your boyfriend/husband's band, DON'T HATE THEM (no matter HOW hot they are!).  FANS are the reason your man is up on that stage.  EMBRACE those types of people.  These are the type of people I am!  LOL!  Seriously, when there is a person (male or female really) that is willing to spend their free time promoting your man's band, then dammit, LOVE THEM!  Your man and his band would be NOTHING without women like us!  Remember that!!!!

3.  IF you get jealous over your man talking to another woman.....then leave.  I don't even WANT to say anything to you.  Seriously.....if you can not stand the idea of your man TALKING to another woman, LEAVE NOW!  You are the specific type of woman I am talking about.  When I am at a show, and I talk to someone associated with the band, or THE BAND for that matter, that does NOT mean that I want to sleep with them......seriously, I am married, and happily at that (probably because I don't worry about other women and I don't spend my time hating).  BUT, just because I am talking with your man (maybe even flirting, OH MY GOD!) PLEASE don't sit there and cross your arms, looking like a whipped pup because a woman is talking to your man.  I AM TALKING!  We are not fucking right there in public in front of everyone (sounds kinda fun, maybe a new fantasy?  LOL)  So if you are in public, a chic walks up to talk to your man, SMILE and know that he's going home with you, not her!

4. IF you see a chic that is hotter, and sexier than you are, DON'T HATE!  DAMMIT!  Honestly, you are NOT all that, trust me on that one.  There is always going to be someone better, hotter, sexier....whatever.  So if you see a hot chic, don't just sit in your chair and glare at her, staring her up and down.  It's not HER fault that she looks better than you.....DEAL WITH IT BITCH!

5. IF you punish your man (ie, doghouse, couch, guest room whatever!) for another woman walking up and talking to him, or hell....even if he WAS checking her out (LORD FORBID RIGHT? HOW DARE HE?) then you are the true meaning of pathetic.  Do NOT punish your man for a woman coming up to talk to him.  He did nothing wrong but be polite to her and talk back.  He did NOT take her number, he did NOT talk sex, he was being kind.  Can this type of woman even comprehend being kind and nice?  I don't think so.  How is this your man's fault that a hot chic said HEY, what's up?  DUH!  Sick, you make me sick!  I feel so sorry for your husband/boyfriend having to walk on eggshells around you.  Your relationship sucks, you know that right?  It's not happy...it's not NORMAL!

Ok, now see....I am all worked up, so many things on my mind.  I guess now I leave it to you....help me here.  Can ANYONE help me with this?  I have actually been having to deal with this for a few months now, and sometimes it is worse than others.  I am out to have a good time and go home to my husband.  I just don't have time for people that hate.  Does anyone else have these problems?  Women hating on you?  Women hating you TALKING to their man?  Then come on....help me deal with this, cuz I am about ready to burst!  I know I shouldn't let it bother me, but I try to get along with everyone....I am not here to intimidate or sleep with your man.  NOT EVERY WOMAN ALIVE WANTS TO SLEEP WTH YOUR MAN!  Truth be told, YOU are probably the only one who wants to.  Not to be mean, but honestly....we don't ALL walk around thinking about sleeping with every man we come across.

Ok, I am done....what do you think?  Am I too harsh on haters?  Seriously, how do other women deal with women being jealous over them?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

OK, this had to be updated....it's now Sept 2, 2007.  I have had the "fun" experience of running into some more "works of art" that call themselves women.  LOL!  You are NOT going to believe this, ok...maybe you will.  I have finally decided, unless you are a girl and I already like you....I REALLY don't like girls.  That sucks!

Well, here's the setting.  As most of you know, I am a model/promotional model.  I was working a show last night at a local club, nothing special...just a regular clubbing night.  Well, there were 3 of us models working, PLUS the staff.  It was "beautiful people" night, so we were wearing lingerie (yes it was tasteful and we were covered in beautiful lingerie, couresty of Priscilla's at the Lake).  So back to the story, we were walking around in lingerie, as were the waitresses etc.  Our main job was to walk around and try to collect email addresses of the clubbers.  We also had vodka infused strawberries dipped in chocolate we were sharing with people if they gave up the email.

So, we met some really cool people, had some cool conversations with the people.  We decided to get out in the main part of the bar and really start to mingle.  Now, mind you, my friend Kathee is one of the most beautiful women I have ever met, but I wouldn't mess with her.  A true California girl...LOL!  She beautiful, but could whoop some ass I am sure of it!  Anyways, the 3 of us models were standing there talking to 2 guys, getting their emails...and this big fat bitch shoves me out of the way, rubs up on Kathee, puts herself between Kathee and "her boyfriend" and then grabs her friend and throws her in front of the 3rd model inbetween the men and us.  She looks at Kathee and says THIS IS MY BOYFRIEND!  Kathee was like, so...we are just trying to get email addresses for the club here, we are working.  The chic was like, I don't care, he's not interested.  Now, this bitch had nerve, cuz I dont' think I would stand up to Kathee like that.  AND this bitch is lucky that Kathee was working, cuz she would have gotten her ass KICKED!

Here's what I got to say: FUCK YOU BITCH! Seriously, look at your fat ass and look at us (ok, maybe a lil conceited) but honestly....look at your fat ass and look at us...TRUST ME BITCH, HE'S INTERESTED!  LOL!  Ok, so what the fuck?  I mean honestly....this bitch was so worried about some hot chics in lingerie chatting with her man, that she was willing to put herself between us and them and stand up.  HOLY HELL!  Over a fucking email address???  Get over yourself bitch!

Now on for the other scenario.  Kathee and I decided we were going to bring out the strawberries and carry them around the club and get emails that way, kinda like...in order to get one you have to give up the email.    We walked up to this couple (yes a guy and girl) and they were cool.  The chic was like..hell yeah, here's my address I want a strawberry.  Well, they were there with a friend, a male.  He was alone...the girl looked at him and said, give your email...get a strawberry, they are delicious.  So I gave him my clipboard with the address papers and my pen.  He started to fill out his email.  (OK, here's where I was totally clueless, I thought it was a couple with a friend tagging along).  Ok, so while he's filling out his email, this bitch comes FLYING across the club, I mean...I seriously think she was flying cuz she came up in such a fucking blur.  She grabs the clipboard right out of his hand, throws my papers all over, throws my pen, grabs her man and walks him out the door.  HOLY SHIT!  I SWEAR, true story.  Kathee just stood there in shock, as did I, and Kathee was like...HEY BITCH, where's our pen?  WHAT THE FUCK GAVE HER THE RIGHT TO TAKE MY PROPERTY and THROW IT ALL AROUND LIKE A 5 YEAR OLD KID THROWING A FIT?  WOW!  She totally flipped out cuz her man was writing down an email address FOR THE CLUB, not for my personal use!  This chic was all matrix on us and shit.  She may have actually vaporized....I could have SWORN I saw steam rolling out that bitches' ears. 

The point is...it was OBVIOUS we were working, the waitresses were dressed the same as we were.  We had clipboards in our hands.  It's not like we ALWAYS go clubbing in lingerie, I mean...honestly come on.  SO....with that said, what the fuck is wrong with people?  Seriously, if I was at a club, some chic WORKING came up to my man...I wouldn't care...hell I wouldn't care if she WASN'T working, because I am comfortable enough with myself, with my marriage and with my man that I know he's not going to go home with her.  He's there with me, he's going home with me.....yes, even if that chic is hotter.  Cuz I know we love each other, I know we can trust each other, and I am not intimidated by beautiful women.   

I just had to share my humiliating experience.  HUMILIATING you say?  YES, I was EMBARRASSED to be a woman last night, cuz if the way these women acted was an example of women worldwide, I was embarrassed to be a woman last night.  BUT, the great thing is...these women don't speak for the few of us that DON'T act this way. 

On a finaly note....women, if you see yourself in ANY of these things that I am talking about...you need to get over yourself.  You need to step back and realize that men don't like that type of shit.  Men don't LIKE it when you butt into their conversations and make a complete ass of yourself, cuz while you are out with them, you are an example of them as well.  You need to get over yourself and deal with it.  Don't worry, I don't want your man.  I am perfectly happy with my own!

WOW! Army of Anyone, Dean DeLeo and ME!
Current mood: ecstatic
Category: Music

Well, I was in Las Vegas for a number of reasons this past weekend (April 5-9).  So many things to do...of the many things, Chris Cornell was playing downtown for free and I was very excited about that show.

On the way down there, we heard on the radio that Army of Anyone was playing for FREE before Chris Cornell.  HELL YEAH!  Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE AoA, and Dean DeLeo of course!    So we hooked up with Steph, her hubby Kevin, and my friend Gerald.  We headed down there....got stuck in a HUGE traffic jam  and heard them do their last 2 songs.

After the show I chased down Dean (wonder why right?)  He hugged me and said he would go get out of those wet clothes (need help???) and he would be back.  So I waited (of course).  We hung out with Richard Patrick (singer for Aoa, used to be Filter) and chatted for a few....and out comes DEAN .  I asked for another pic of him (like all the ones I have now are not enough!) and he said OF COURSE.  So I asked if he remembers me (like they ALWAYS say they do, but really don't) and he says YES!  I saw you in Charlotte, then again in Greensboro...and now here.  What the hell are you doing in Las Vegas???  So we chatted, I invited him to see Resolve to Burn playing that night (he declined DAMMIT!) and I asked again....do you really remember me?  To my suprise he says:

YES!  YOUR NAME IS MEL!!!!

OH MY GOD!!!

DEAN DELEO KNOWS MY NAME!!!!

So needless to say, that made my day.  I can NOT believe that this hot man, who has played music for decades and met millions of people....KNOWS MY NAME!!!

So then we watched Chris Cornell perform and we left to go see

RESOLVE TO BURN

Which turned out to be a kick ass show too. 

My Friday night in Las Vegas was the BEST time I have EVER had in Las Vegas (except for my wedding!)  I got to meet Army of Anyone again, I got to meet Resolve to Burn, I got to meet all their girls, I got to see their show, I got to meet Stephanie (FINALLY!) and her hubby Kevin, we hung out and partied the night away in Las Vegas.

Pending a million dollar jackpot, I had one of the best days I could have possibly had!

Just had to share the story......

I got deleted...I want all my friends back
Current mood: determined
Category: Friends

Ok, so my last page got deleted for UNSPECIFIED reasons...what the hell does that mean???  It means (in my opinion) some jealous bitch (you know who you are) got me deleted.  Well, I am back.

I lost over 1000 friends and had almost 10,000 profile views.  It is ALL GONE!  This is very frustrating and it made me very angry.

I want all my friends back.  I can't remember everyone.  If you were a friend, ADD ME AGAIN!  If you were NOT a friend and WANT to be my friend, add me.  I got to get back up and running.  This is NOT going to get me down!

So I am back...here I am.  Let's get this thing going again.
