Well, let me show you!
Hey!
Please add my NEW profile here on MySpace... dedicated to my glitter art! I don't want to bother anyone with postings about my glitter art from this profile in case you don't care! LOL
So, if you are COOL and want to earn big huge kudos points with me, add my new profile!
I am having my FIRST art show at PRIDE OF THE CHAMP this Saturday in Antioch, CA! So, if you're in the area, stop by and visit my booth! I'll have lots of glitter art up for sale as well as signed 8X10 prints! This event is going to be a BLAST! I mean, come ON! Live music! Car show! MEXICAN WRESTLING! SEE YOU THERE!!!
I know, I've been gone a loooong time. Over a month! I've just been so busy!
But I'm not exactly "back".
I will continue to be very busy over the next couple of weeks and before I can come back I have to clear out my inbox and friend requests! So don't fear, if I havent written you back, it's just because I haven't read your mail yet. (AND NO, I DO NOT WRITE EVERYONE BACK!) But I have pages and pages of mail to go through. Have patience, please!
Also, I will be in San Francisco until the 6th.
But I wanted to stop in and put up my new 4th of July photos! :)
Okay, so they're flowers and not fireworks, but close enough! :)
The dress is Whirling Turban and so are those killer tiki bracelets! Thanks so much to JOE DEVINYL for the photography skillz! ;)
VOTE for Cassandra Fever for RuPaul’s new reality show!
Current mood: hopeful
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities
Hello, ASIA ARMY! As you know, I made some GREAT friends when I was a contestant on The Search For The Next Elvira! And one of my new friends is trying to score a spot on RuPaul's new Reality show, DRAG RACES! So please, read the following message and click on the link to go to the voting page! No registration is needed! THANK YOU!!!!
I tossed my hat into the ring for yet another reality TV show.. yes, you'd think once was enough, but it's not...
This time I'm going out for RuPaul's Drag Races! No joke. It is the drag competition to end all others... that is, if there ARE any others... AND I need your VOTES to get a shot at it. It costs nothing to sign up, and the website is fairly entertaining. Click the link below to see my profile and VOTE for my ass while you're there damn it. You wouldn't want to see me go homeless would you?
Yay! I'm really happy with the way this one came out! The leopard print was a total experiment, I even drew in the spots on a previously solid color bikini!
Here's a close up:
I'll be placing this up for sale at GLAMOURCON this weekend in Los Angeles, so if you want her, come on down! If she doesn't sell, I'll offer her up to you guys here on MySpace when I get home. (I'm placing the price at $300) This is a 14"X18" canvas.
But if she does sell, DON'T WORRY! I will be making more Bettie Page pieces! (Many more, I'm sure!) And the more simple Bettie images will be more affordable than this one, too.
I'm really happy with the way she came out... much better I think than the Frankenstein! Since he was my first piece, he's a bit rough and a little lumpy. (Like a good man should be!) But The Bride is smooth and even. Yay!
I will probably work on a piece to take with me to Glamourcon next. Perhaps it will sell? And since it is Glamourcon, maybe I should do a Bettie Page? Or Veronica Lake? Something of that nature... Don't worry though, classic Hollywood movie monsters are one of my favorite subjects, so I will be back on them again soon!
If you have read my profile you already know how much I hate big ugly sparkle tags here on myspace.
But don't get me wrong, I LOVE glitter! Come on, I'm a total magpie! If it sparkles, I'm all over it, mezmerized by it, even! I hoard rhinestone jewelry like it will pay my way out of hell! So it should go without saying that I love glitter. As a matter of fact, I love glitter soooooo much that I've started doing glitter art pieces! I've completed two pieces so far and am entirely TOO excited to get started on a third!
My love of glitter started when I when I was very young. Do you remember those coloring contests that grocery stores would have around the major holidays? You took your sheet home, colored it and returned it to the store where they would hang it up with the other entries? I always envied the ones that were done in glitter. So one year around Easter, I did one in pastel glitter from another art project. We ended up not turning it in on time (story of my LIFE!) but I hung it on my wall in my room. Why I didn't continue doing glitter art from that time forward is a matter of my mother not wanting to clean up glitter and it simply escaping from my mind.
I did some sand art in my Jr. High art class and while I enjoyed it, (my piece was an Addams Family theme) it lacked... luster.
But the glitter that has been missing from my life since the 80's is BACK WITH A VENGEANCE! I'm excited to unveil my FIRST glitter piece since I was 10: (Keep in mind: glitter is a bitch to photograph!)
I would show you my second piece, but it's a portrait of our daughter (a gift for my mother this Mother's Day) and I don't post photos of her here, sorry! (If I know you personally and you would like a photo, just message me!)
I eventually want to start offering pieces for sale, but I'm reluctant to part with Frankie. He was fun, so I'm sure this won't be the only Frank I do!
So, what do you think?
XOXO,
~Asia
PS: I'm not an "artist". I'm a "Creator of Kitsch". AKA The Glitteress! (Thank Joe for that name...LOL)

Why The "Own Your Friends" App Is EVIL Current mood: rebellious Category: MySpace
Not to sound too much like an old geezer, but I remember the good old days of MySpace when all you had to do to show a friend how much you cared was post a comment of a half-naked woman telling them how cool they were...or something equally as tacky:
But the last few weeks, a new means of expressing your undying friendship has emerged with MySpace's recent explosion of the app "Own Your Friends"...or as I like to call it: Hell Online.
For those who aren't familiar with "Own Your Friends," it's an app where you can "buy" and "sell" your "friends" (or at least their profiles) with "money" raised through a tedious process of posting irritating bulletins and annoying comments like this:
Hey Aaron, I just bought you as my PET! Click here to find out how much I think you're $$WORTH$$!
And, of course, when you leave those comments, all of your friends will doubt your MySpace profile's security and bombard you with "Dude, change your password!" messages.
Despite the app's ability to make you appear like someone has hijacked your profile in an effort to peddle Viagra and porn, "Own Your Friends" has a dark side.
For instance, when you "buy" a friend, another person can come along and buy your friend out from underneath you - as long as they have enough money.
And honestly, this really teaches the youth of America the truth about capitalism: you can get whatever you want, as long as you have enough money, and if the other person doesn't want to sell the item you want, deposit the money into their account and TAKE IT.
It's the part of the "Own Your Friends" app that MySpace doesn't want you to realize, and I've demonstrated the demonic process of people stealing your friends with this image of Bigfoot kidnapping a woman:
So, like a pile of Yeti stool, I dumped the "Own Your Friends" app.
The reason? I found myself slipping into "Middle School Mode," and I didn't like where I was headed...at all.
I could see how this tiny app could lead to people beating the absolute hell out of each other.
Imagine, if you will, the chaos to ensue as little fourth graders bash each other's faces in at busstops all over the country:
"You bought MY girlfriend, you mother-f$%*@in' piece of $!%!"
Sure, it's a game, but some of the folks on there take it waaay too seriously. (And I even found myself guilty of that, too.)
I just hate how if you buy someone, someone else can just come along and buy them out from under you.
Whu...?
Life is nothing like that. I can't go to a pawn shop, see a stereo I like, leave $50 more than they paid for it, and walk out with it. They're liable to tase me!
In any transaction, there has to be some negotiation. Hell, the seller has to WANT to SELL the item in the first place!
I'll admit when I first heard of this app, I was more than a little intrigued by the ins and outs of it.
As soon as I signed up for this app, I did everything in my power to save enough money to buy my "friend" (and incidentally my favorite TV show) The Office:
By the end of my lunch hour, I had saved enough to buy it. So, I plunked down my hard earned money, bought The Office, and changed the status from "pwnd by jaime" to "is happy to be owned by Aaron Killian."
I was so proud of myself.
For three minutes.
That's when the original owner bought it out from under me.
Yippy.
So much for the value of a hard-earned dollar. HOW DARE HE BUY THE OFFICE OUT FROM UNDERNEATH ME...even though that's exactly what I just did to him.
We went back and forth for TWO DAYS, buying The Office from one another. In a span of forty-eight hours, the price went from $5,000 to $30,000 just because we kept buying it back from each other, causing its price to grow incrementally with each purchase.
Then a third person jumped into the mix!
And he was just nasty about it, too. He'd post under The Office's status, "Aaron. Just Aaron is an @$$hole" and stupid crap like that.
So, what did I do? I saved up as much money as I could and bought EVERY SINGLE FRIEND HE HAD (except for The Office, which I couldn't afford anymore).
It took him six hours before he had enough money to buy them all back.
And it's little immature things like that that I found myself doing that made me realize just how inherently IDIOTIC this app is.
Of course, there were a few other things that went on, but I'd rather not post them in this blog. Let's just say it was enough to make me walk away.
I deleted the app, and I haven't looked back since. It's not worth the time, the effort, or the frustration.
I don't like myself when I play that stupid game.
Plus, it's nothing like really owning your friends. Own Your Friends is just a watered down version of online slavery.
Someday, when I have enough money to really own my friends, I'm going to stick them in my basement, toss some raw meat down the stairs every once in a while, and occasionally clean their cages. Then I will literally make them poke, hug, and prod each other from the comfort of a La-Z-Boy in a room with a two-way mirror.
And I won't have to post irritating bulletins or annoying comments to do it.
Then I'm going to make an online game about it and post it on Facebook.
Take that, MySpace!
All the best, ~Aaron~

Thanks, Aaron!!!
I just had to go on a research rampage since I've recieved about 150 of those messages in the past week! I figured everyone had been hacked, so I changed my password. But then I started getting personal messages from my friend Jenny about my "value" and I figured that I'd better find out what this is all about!
So, to answer your question before you ask: NO. I will NOT be playing!

Some ASSHOLE has hacked my Photobucket account and deleted it.
Yes, EVERYTHING I had stored in my PAID account from the past 4 years is GONE. (Between tags, modeling images, personal friend and family images...probably 3,000 photos.)
So, all of my blog images have been wiped out, and most of the images from my profile, too. Also, any comment images that I have posted to your pages!!!
LO-DOWN HO-DOWN THIS SATURDAY!!!
Current mood: busy
Category: Travel and Places
Hey, Everyone!
I will be hostessing the 5th Annual Lo-Down Ho-Down in Snellville, Georgia this Saturday and it’s going to be CRAZY!!! Carshow, SEVEN bands playing all day, raffles, 50/50, cool Cats and Rockin’ Dolls! What more could you ask for?
So if you happen to be in the area, come on down and introduce yourself! I will be in the carshow all day posing for pictures and signing event posters to raise money for Scarlett! (Read more about Scarlett below)
Don’t forget to purchase RAFFLE TICKETS!
This year at Lo-Down Ho-Down V not only are we going to have a good time with cars and music, but we are raising money for Miss Scarlett, a 14 year old girl with Rett Syndrome. Rett Syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder that almost exclusively effects females.
Scarlett and her family live in San Bruno, CA and an event is thrown annually in San Francisco called Scarlett Fever to help raise money for her special needs. She is the most amazing person I have ever encountered. Currently Scarlett is unable to speak, but she can tell you everything she wants to say with her eyes. She is very much a 14 year old girl; she loves boys, chocolate, and she can drop the f bomb with just one look.
Scarlett’s mom, Rosa, puts it best, "Scarlett has an army". An army that does what ever they can to help Scarlett and her family fight Rett Syndrome, to give her a better quality of daily life. By buying tons of raffle tickets, playing 50/50, and bidding on the amazing items donated, you too can help this little girl. At LDHD V you will see a video of the progress Scarlett has made with money last years event paid for.
Other girls with Rett Syndrome are watching Scarlett and her improvement and are inspired to not give into Rett. They are throwing events of their own in their hometowns to raise money to pay for the very expensive equipment and therapies needed to get their girls better. So not only will you be directly helping one little girl, but there is a trickle down effect to the other girls.
Scarlett’s parents, Bob James and Rosa, will be present at the LDHD V and would love to talk to anyone about Rett Syndrome and of course Scarlett.
SEE YOU THERE!!!

He claims he is your good friend and that he grew up down the street in Lake Arrowhead with you.
The guy is kinda a bullshitter and I just want to validate his credibility before I tell him is full of shit!
PLEASE let me know if you know him or not.
Thanx.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wrote her back:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hey, *****!
Ok, I’ve never met the guy. He is "friends" with a really old friend of mine, but according to my friend, they are no longer speaking.
When the fires up there happened last year, Rob sent me a myspace message telling me that he was looking after my friend’s house during the evacuation and that my friend was safe. He sent me his phone number and I called him to check up on the status of Jason’s house while the fires were burning. (Of course I blocked my number... I don’t want some randon guy having my digits, yo! lol)
When I finally got ahold of Jason after the fires and he was back home again, I told him that Rob had contacted me to tell me that everything was ok and Jason freaked out! He was pissed off that Rob had used the fires as a way to weasle his way into talking to me.
Jason informed me that they *used* to be friends but that Rob was such a liar and a con artist that Jason had kicked him out of his life... and warned me to stay away from Rob, too.
I haven’t spoken to or written back to Rob’s (several) messages since.
So, to make a long story short (too late!) I’ve never met Rob. I *DID* used to live in Lake Arrowhead about 15 years ago however, which is how I met Jason to begin with. But Rob wasn’t part of our crowd, (I don’t think he even lived up there then...) nor had I ever heard of him until the fires.
I hope this helps!
XOXO
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
***** told Rob that I had discredited his story and I got these messages: (I’m combining two messages to save time.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the girl that wrote u invited me over house when she was married and got me in her drama ,like i said my mom died less than week ago dont need the trouble ,the best to say to some one that u dont know is nothing ,u im sorry, u got her on my back and dont need any of this ,again i was and have been honest with u ,u i tried to get jason stop drinkin ,and reason he kicked me out was he thought i took one beer ,and that was befor i brought ann in her house to rest and say goodbye , im shocked in your behvvior, ,
good bye ,con artist im not ,i have a home for jason and dont want money ,do you know where he is prob not ,again sorry for the dram but i did not create it, ask jason how many years i did in prison cause he was drunk and couldnt go to court to say the truth* , ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Jason wouldn’t lie for Rob on the stand, so Rob did the time for the crime he commited.
I wrote him back:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Okay, FIRST of all, I could *barely* understand your messages... using "u" for "you" and poor spelling and grammar don’t help... sheesh.
SECOND of all, STOP LYING AND TELLING PEOPLE THAT YOU AND I ARE GOOD FRIEND FROM ’BACK IN THE DAY’ WHO GREW UP DOWN THE STREET FROM ONE ANOTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You and I have *NEVER MET IN PERSON* and you KNOW it!!!!
You are full of SHIT.
I am deleteing you and blocking your future messages, so don’t even bother writing me back.
Jason warned me about you and I know he’s right.
You *ARE* a LIAR and a con artist! And unlike the fucking dumb asses at the bar that you might be able to con into believing you, I’m NOT buying it!
STOP telling people that you know me. Because everytime someone who *smells your bullshit* messages me to find out if you’re telling the truth or not... *I’m* going to tell them the truth! "WE HAVE NEVER MET!!!!"
Fucking ridiculous, Man! RIDICULOUS!
"The best thing to say to someone that you dont know is nothing. "
WOW. AMAZING... because as far as I’m concerned, the best thing to say ABOUT SOMEONE YOU HAVE NEVER MET IS NOTHING!!!!!!
YOU DONT KNOW ME!!!! STOP SAYING THAT YOU DO!
I think it is sooooooooo funny that you said "Im shocked in your behavior" EXCUSE ME!!!!???? YOU’RE the one who is making up LIES!!!!!!!!
But of course, I was WARNED that you are a LIAR, so I shouldn’t be surprised, right????
LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Message back from Rob:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
im no con artist my mom did pass last week ,and u ant all that, no harm intened ,so last message ,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My reply:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FUCK YOU ROB.
"u ant all that" LEARN HOW TO SPELL!!! SHIT!
If I’m not all that, then why were you LYING trying to convince people that you know me in person????
LOSER.
Do NOT contact me again. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And now a message from *****:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Asia,
I’m sorry for getting you into the middle of things.
It all started pretty innocently about a week ago. He told me his mom had died and I felt sad for him so I did the best I could to console him. Well in the middle of our talks he kept telling me how he dated you, partied with Mike Ness, trained with Tito Ortiz, hung with Tank Abbott... blah, blah, blah, blah.
I realize that people in this world know some "famous" souls, but it was really hard to swallow everything he was trying to feed me, so that is why I wrote you. It just seemed like the simplest way to prove he was a liar.
After I sent him our lil conversation, he wrote me back and called me a fatass btch, and egged my husband on to fight with him. Not only was it retarded, but almost undecipherable!! I swear this guy has the writing skills of a 6 year old (LOL)!!
All this after 6 days!! Freakin Psycho!!
Anyways, Thanks again I am sorry for getting you chewed out by a total loser.
XOXO *****
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Did you catch it?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rob,
WAIT WAIT WAIT.....
YOU FUCKING SAID YOU *DATED* ME?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
"Well in the middle of our talks he kept telling me how he dated you, partied with Mike Ness, trained with Tito Ortiz, hung with Tank Abbott... "
Oh, YOU FUCKING LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is NO FUCKING WAY IN HELL that I would EVER date you!!! EVER!
If you message me again, I will BLOG all of this, and give all of my friends a chance to laugh at your stupid ass!!!
LEAVE ME ALONE!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And his last message to me:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How stupid do you have to be to lie when it was so easy for this girl to check his story out? At least lie about somone who’s dead and can’t out you as the liar that you are! Saying "Yeah, I dated Suzanne Pleshette..." or "Sure, I got drunk with Kurt Cobain once back in the day when I was in Seattle..." is a LOT easier to get away with, Stupid!
Well as frustrating as this little exchange has been over the past two days, I must say that his writing style kept my entertained. It’s like solving a code! LOL
It’s actually very sad. His life is SO empty and boring that he has to invent imaginary friends? (And girlfriends? And aquaintences? What about pets? Do you think he makes up imaginary hamsters, too?)
I’m not usually such a vindictive person, but after everything he has put my friend Jason through and now THIS, I’ve HAD IT!
Stalkers freak me out, but stupid people make me laugh.
