We've always known that we have the best fans in the world, but this contest has shown us that not only are you guys the best, but you're the coolest, most clever, and all about having fun being yourself - with no apologies. This being the first Local Celebrity Video Contest we've done, we didn't know what to expect, but you guys blew us away with your creativity, talent, and humor. You all proved that Local Celebrity really is seen on cool people, and we're looking forward to seeing what else you guys can come up with as we do more contests in the near future!
Without further delay...
Ross Brind!!!!! Ross definitely went the extra mile on this one, which we always notice and appreciate. From the music choice, to the more than 750 photos it took to make this bad boy, we were blown away with how thorough this video was and how well it represents our brand. Congrats, Ross, enjoy your spoils!! Here's his video...
Ernest Kahn!! It's been a hot minute since I played with a yoyo, but this video brought back awesome memories of all the yoyo abilities I never had. These two have serious skills, and understand the importance of looking good while demonstrating them! Here's their video...
2 Guys & A Jerk!! This was a really tough call because these guys were the inspiration for this video contest and totally out-did themselves by rocking out all over the University of Wisconsin Madison, and honestly they had us rolling on the floor laughing. Sorry fellas...if only you did your video in stop motion while jerking and yoyoing at the same time! No, but for real, we love this video, check it out...and make sure you watch the whole thing...
Santa!! HIGH FIVE!! Pretty impressive flow for someone who's only been spitting fire for 2 months! Santa, you make me happy. Check out his video...
Mr. Online Local Celebrity himself, Denny Blaze, aka Average Homeboy! If you haven't had the pleasure of witnessing his smoothed out rapping and stunning visual effects, now you can! Technically we would have placed this video in the top 3, but we have something else in mind for this homeboy since he always wins at everything forever. You may just see this Average Homeboy's face on a limited edition Local Celebrity shirt sometime soon... Prepare to get blazed!
And here's a couple other videos that we really liked. Thanks to Chris for showing your devotion by tattooing our logo on your stomach while battling the devil. When Y3K comes, you're our guy. And thanks to Ryan for making everyone who watches your video high on love(great choice of music and very cool video style, by the way).
That's all for now, stay tuned for your next competition!
Holy feast, Batman! We just had our annual Thanksgiving feast, and it was exactly that...a FEAST! Carrot salad, green bean cassarole, two turkeys, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, gravy, homemade cranberry sauce, canned cranberry sauce, stuffing, red and white vino, sparkling cider, and pumpkin pie w/ whip to top it all off. I'm sure I'm forgetting something. Oh yea!...macaroni salad too!
I pounded two full plates of delicious carbs, protein, and starch. Mario's mom cooked everything for us! What an awesome woman, she hooks us up like this every year! Check out a few pics from the festivities...I'm going to take a nap on the couch.
Dig in!
Easy, Karli, there's plenty of pie to go around...
Ally likes dark meat...
Thanks Kinga, I'll take that! I got my macaroni salad on!
It's game time...
Game over.
Karli weighed herself after she finished eating...a whopping 119 lbs!! Before dinner she was 110...not really.
I used up all my free listening minutes on Pandora this month so I hit up Myspace to get my jam on, which I haven't done in a LONG time. I was trying to think of some bands and songs that I haven't listened to in a while, and The Used popped into my dome. Shonuff, I go to their page and BAM, Bert is all up in my grill rockin' our Inspector Gadget Busted t-shirt. Check it out...
Who can forget Crime Dog McGruff?! With his trench coat and popped collar, crime didn't stand a chance with him on the prowl. Urban Outfitters knows what's up and is selling our classic Crime Dog McGruff t-shirt exclusively in red. You can get the same shirt in cream from our website, but only Urban Outfitters has this shirt in red.
I'm from the east coast where the fall and spring seasons reign supreme(IMO) and are cherished for those few fleeting months until you get blasted with extreme cold and extreme hot. Today in LA, I was transported back to VA. It felt like a true fall day where you would expect to see colorful leaves all over the streets and smell the smoke from fireplaces all around you. The sun wasn't too hot, and the breeze wasn't too cold, it was just right. And although there aren't really any trees in LA to turn colors, you can always count on the smog to give the city a nice orange glow at sunset...making for a great fall finish to an awesome fall day.
You've probably seen these before, but just in case you haven't, I'm sure you'll find some level of enjoyment out of them. They get me everytime!
Who knew it was so dangerous to drink a beer, and listen to your favorite jams on the street these days? Darn kids and their youtube...
Nothing has ever given me such mixed emotions. Check out the smile on the other chick's face at first...priceless!
Haven't you ever been so angry and you acted on it...and within a split second you realize you 're an idiot? I bet this kid was laughing his you know what off as soon as he watched the replay though.
A few weeks ago we teamed up with Boulevard 3 night club in Hollywood to have a mini fashion show and a mega party. It was a blast! If you weren't able to make it out that night, BUMMER! Maybe next time. Just make sure you're on the A-List so you can stay in the loop with what we have going on.
Here's a little video we put together to show you a little bit of the action that night...
I just got back to the office on Monday from a week in the Virgin Islands(dope spot!), and noticed something strange about my 3 week old apple I had been meaning to eat before I left town. It was sweating like a fat kid in a pastry shop!
I contemplated tricking someone into eating it...or paying someone to eat it. I thought about smashing it on the street, or giving it to a homeless person...but decided I wanted to see what was going on inside this bad boy. It was super soft and squishy and felt like it would totally fall apart if I picked it up; so I decided to perform surgery on it!
I was amazed at how easily the skin came off...so I just peeled it all off for lack of a better idea.
It felt like a really old sponge that was soaking wet, or like a ball of mashed potatoes.
I didn't want to stop playing with the razor...so I made it look good, sucka!
If you ever see a sweaty apple, don't bite...you won't like it, I promise.
