Trailer for new film 'NINE' featuring Penelope Cruz, Sophia Loren, Kate Hudson, Fergie & Judy Dench.

I think I wanna see this film, Penelope Cruz, Kate Hudson, Ralph Feinnes, Nicole Kidman, Judy Dench, Fergie and wait for it...Sophia Loren, are all starring in this musical based on an Italian play by Mario Fratti inspired by Federico Fellini's autobiographical film 8½. In this version the film director is 'Guido Contini' who is facing a midlife crisis blocking his creative impulses and entangling him in a web of romantic difficulties in early-1960s Venice. This all makes for the possibility of great costumes and 60's glamour!I want to see.

Check out the Dinky Loops..I really like their music, very refreshing...

I came across the Dinky Loops a little while ago and I loved what I heard. Loved the name & their videos. Dinky Loop's description of themselves is that they 'are committed to writing the simplest music possible, not lightweight, not disposable. just simple'. I kinda love that too :)

I caught up with Dinky Loop & asked them what is behind their music. Check out their Video's too below, I can so imagine their music all over adverts in the near future...
DJ NIKKI Beatnik

NIKKI:Tell me about the Dinky Loops, What kind of band/ producers are you?
DINKY LOOPS: We are two girls, dinky jules, dinky t and one one guy, dinky. we are a band who are absolutely devoted to writing the most perfect, simple and pure melodies possible. that is how and why we started making music.

NIKKI: How did you start making music? What music/ artists are you influenced by?
DINKY LOOPS: We are inspired by all the best melodies rather than bands per se. new order's temptation and ceremony, blondie's union city blue, kraftwerk's answering the beach boys "fun, fun, fun" with "fahr, fahr, fahr," joy division's atmosphere, smashing pumpkins 1979, the trammps sample and how it was used by the game featuring 50 cent and lyrical simplicity like kris kristofferson's "i'd trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday"...

NIKKI: Tell me about the new record 'Born To Stand Out'?
DINKY LOOPS: This record is for all the real heroes that were born to stand out but have remained undiscovered...


NIKKI: Whats the future for The Loops?
DINKY LOOPS: Nobody knows the future, least of all, us...

NIKKI: Thanks Dinky Loops
DINKY LOOPS: love from all the loops xx

H&M JIMMY CHOO LAUNCH DAY

I span at the launch for the Jimmy Choo for H&M range on Saturday. To quote Sir Peter of Andre it was 'insania' :) People had slept outside the shops from 9pm the night before to get a wristband to allow them first dibs on the shoes.




The unlucky people were not in the first 180 people had to queue up for the rest of the day. I provided the light entertainment, but I felt so bad for them queuing for so long.


I cant think of anything I would want so badly that I would queue for so long (maybe if they cut off the world diet coke supply) but then again I did get my Jimmy Choo fix last week, so I can be be very thankful to the lovely ladies at H&M for my adorable shoes, sequined jacket & wicked bag :) :) Happy NIKKI

The Ghosts of City de Soleil

Im not really up to date on films, many films our right now leave me uninspired. So I am probably really late on this one: The Ghosts of City de Soliel. A documentary film about the gangs in Port Au Prince, Haiti who were funded by the then President- Aristide to keep order in the shanty town areas of the city. When Aristide was ousted an a military coups in 2004, their gangs became outlaws and were hunted down by the US troops & Haitian police.
The film was amazing, very sad and touching and your heart goes out to the people, living in this area described by the UN as 'the most dangerous place on the planet'.
