Michael Gaughan does Har Mar's portrait

The local artist who painted the iconic watercolor of GAYNGS in a hot tub and had his portrait of Andrew W.K. made into album art is at it again. This time, the prolific Michael Gaughan has taken his brush to a sexy, shirtless Har Mar Superstar, who reacted on Facebook, "My pal and one of my favorite artists, Michael Gaughan made this amazing watercolor portrait of me. So honored!" We'll say.

Weekend Twitterings - Halloween Edition

Happy Halloween everybody! Here's the weekend recap, where you talk about inflatable sex dolls, silly costumes and all sorts of inappropriate behavior.

This would sound scary on any other day except Halloween.

Scandalous!
YESSSS...
We are talking about the real Method Man, btw.
Kids today.

This is how you celebrate Halloween on the budget.
Last year it was Gaga, this year, it's Ke$ha.
Did she, did she??
OMG.
What does that even look like??
Yep.
You go girl!
We've seen a lot of tweets like this one..
Halloween hangovers are the worst.

Video: Coco and Breezy in new Beyonce video

Eyewear-designing twins Coco and Breezy have been blowing up since they made the move from Minnesota to NYC. The duo have been featured in everything from Essence to Elle, and count Ashanti, Nicki Minaj, Kelly Osbourne and Kelly Rowland as fans of their sunglasses line. Apparently, their personal style got them noticed by the casting agent for Beyonce's new video for the early '90s R&B throwback jam "Party" (which also features a cameo by Rowland). Here are screenshots from the video featuring Coco and/or Breezy, wearing shades from their new "Rainy Days" collection (available now at www.cocoandbreezy.com). Watch the video in full below.
