ART IS A BANG: Viva La Vreeland With "Full Gallop"

The taste for fashion is one of man's infinite struggles for generations. But there are a handful of visionaries who have really shaped the industry and give insights of the appreciation and use of fashion for the modern world. That woman is Diana Vreeland, former Vogue Magazine editor-in-chief and known for her taste and sophistication. Now her vivid and charming life will unfold with "Full Gallop" staged by MyOwnMann Productions starring Cherrie Gil to play the free-spirited Diana.

FULL GALLOP is a one-woman stage play but should never be underestimated because it will not be just a pages of words recited. Each statement is something one can relate at first, then invoke curiosity with the detailed description of her insights and the people, places and fashion she is exposed with. Cherie Gil, noted as one of acclaimed TV and movie actress takes on the challenge of doing the show working with her director Bart Guingona and with a special participation of G Tongi.

MUSIC LYF: Madonna New Single "Girls Gone Wild"

Madonna most involved for her 12th studio album “MDNA”

If listeners find all the earmarks and trademarks of Madonna in her latest album, that’s a testament to her deep involvement to the process of creating the package, her twelfth and first outside her old label. The power play of maturity and a new beginning she's now embarking on makes this one another turning point to her career strengthened by ingenuity and artistic adventure.    

While the album title, “MDNA” is a mere abbreviation of the Mother of Invention’s  world-famous name (as suggested by collaborator M.I.A), its accidental meaning, being Madonna’s DNA, actually defines the finished product as her imprint as one of the world’s most successful artists of all time can be heard all over the collection.  

The 12-track album, to be released this March 26, is led by the cool single “Give Me All Your Luvin” featuring Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. By now the track has spread via limited privilege as provided by iTunes --- in the process only hastening the interest and anticipation for the Queen of Pop’s album since 2008.
