Here's a cute little video of Andre Harrell! That's "Grown'n". (he coined that word)










Later that night Andre Harrell took me to meet Chris Rock and Tamra Davis. Tamra Davis was having an afterparty for her film Nowness - a film about Jean-Michel Basquiat. Russell Simmons, Maya Contreras, Elvis Mitchell, Veronica Webb, Rachel Roy & Nelson George were also there.

This is going to be at Cannes 2010

Tiffany Limos by Matt Black 1/17/2004

Wow, I had never seen some of these pics before. Why is that cigarette in my hand? I was 23 years old here. I can't believe I'm wearing that pink button down! Everyone knows I dislike the color pink. Ah, those days, I remember LA at that time. Living there was fun and easy. Beautiful picture by Photographer Matt Black

R.I.P. Brad Renfro... WOW! Look at the two of us! I don't know where that car came from.

Andre 3000 - that year was hectic for him because that was the "Hey Ya" year, right before the Grammy's. This was photographed in Queen's house where our friend Sean Lennon was staying for a bit. (Andre and Gipp thanks to Fonzworth Bentley leaving the Beverly Center to come down and bring some flava per my phone call... thanks and shout out to Fonzworth Bentley! And go buy his book if you haven't already...Advance Your Swagger)

Bijou Phillips and Lucas Haas were also there... and Fonzworth Bentley... and Gipp....

Thank the Lord I haven't aged. Everyone thinks I look the same and some even think I look better than when I was 23 years old. Oil of Olay is a proven fountain of youth! YES! Maybe its my genes. Whatever it is, I'm grateful.

Elvis Mitchell

My favorite guilty pleasure: The Treatment hosted by Elvis Mitchell

Jay-Z by Elvis Mitchell (Interview Magazine 01/2010)

I always admired Elvis since the first day I locked eyes with him. It was my first time during the QT (Quentin Tarantino) Fest in Austin, Texas and Elvis was holding a cigar. I was invited by QT and it was an unusual experience. This was in 2006. I never thought I would get back in touch with Elvis again but as fate would have it, I did, by pure accident. I asked a few friends for Mr. Mitchell's number but everyone acted like a damn deaf mute. I started to surf the information highway for an email address to no avail... than I started to dig in a little box of old phones. I used to have a phone for every city I lived in. Well, I still have a French phone. Finally, I found an old phone with a number. I texted it and prayed he would text back. He did but after a few hours. I was so relieved. Elvis proceeded to tell me about a lady friend of his and the story involved me, it made me laugh so hard. During my time in New York, I did spend some time with him this week. It was a pleasant surprise. It wasn't a good week for me in New York but seeing him was a sight for sore eyes. I asked him to interview me for this French television show that will premiere at an art show in Italy. I wanted him to meet me early to prep him and to catch up with him but there wasn't time for that. I felt really uneasy about it all. It was a short ten minute interview. During the interview I realized how much I hated interviews, especially interviews for television. I just hope it turns out okay. I don't like being asked questions about movies or life. HA! I think I would have preferred to have just hung out with Elvis alone than do that interview. But at least I picked someone who was a professional because really, I'm an interview virgin. He broke me in. (HA!)

I had turned down interviews in the past. I was pretty well known in Europe when I was younger so I'd turned down many interviews... mainly because there was one interview I did do for Spanish television that made me so irate that I vowed never to get interviewed again. The Spanish interviewer assumed I wasn't intelligent and proceeded to ask me racist, sexist, and anti-American questions. He didn't understand me at all and refused to. I later was in a restaurant in Spain ordering food and I saw the same famous tv interviewer tapping me on the shoulder telling me that I gave a great interview. Uh... I just didn't like his style of interrogation. It was tactless and mainly in part because he didn't do his homework on me. Isn't that his job? He shall remain nameless for the sake of his pride. (HA!) Oh! Maybe my feelings on this topic bleeds into print... There was a writer at a New York Newspaper that will also remain nameless, that interviewed me and her ignorance shocked me. I didn't know that particular magazine could have such ignorant racist people working for them... She berated me about my work and I intelligently asked her if she had seen any of it or read any of my work... she flatly said, "No." HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just don't understand the point of being interviewed by people who don't do their homework or who clearly don't have love for the art of conversation...

I don't really see the need for interviews to be honest. I just want to do my work and go home. Interviews and press don't really do anything except bring exposure to people selling a project. I'm not quite so sure that the interview Elvis and I did will give you a better impression of who I am... I think I was truly caught off guard with the whole "conversation" and "rhythm".

Actually, there was a list of people for me to choose from. Ingrid Sischy, Bethann Hardison, Yoko Ono, Woody Allen, Bruce Weber... but for some reason, I thought it would be good to have Elvis involved. I didn't want a film director to interview me because I've worked with most of them and I wanted someone whom I hadn't worked with before.... (just a coincidence that Elvis and I never encountered each other in this way before)

Here are some videos for your viewing pleasure. Hit my up on twitter or on this blog and tell me what you think.

PS. I'll let ya'll know when the little interview of us comes out but if I don't like it, I'll just keep it to myself. HA!

A special message from Sarah Spitz below:

Tiffany: Now that you are such a fan of Elvis', maybe your fans and readers would like to know that he hosts "The Treatment" a radio show, podcast and on-demand program on public radio station KCRW-Santa Monica 89.9FM and www.kcrw.com/thetreatment

Thanks!

Elvis Mitchell and Paul Gondry walking down St. Mark's... photo by me and my ancient camera phone. 4/1/2010

Paul GONDRY!

Paul's design! (He said he would design some shoes for Elvis. HA! LMAO!)

New York, NY / Vida Loca

Headed back to my ole stomping grounds. New York will always be a home to me.

All my NY peeps, hollar!

This video of Jennifer Lopez reminds me of the year of 2000. How much I was a fan of hers and enjoying my own life at the time. Life is still wonderful and grand.

Enjoy!

Tattoo your name across my heart...

Its amazing when you find love and love goes in this life.

The feeling is like no other.

I love this medley for several reasons. There is an inside joke from back in the day in earlier part of this decade... a joke about me getting married and it has something to do with this clip below. A joke about Beyonce singing at my wedding... and a joke about my love for Anita Baker... I'll tell the joke one day. Not now.

I love Beyonce. (Go Bey Bey!)

The Philippines LOVES USHER RAYMOND!

I also love Usher because he was born in Dallas! HA!!!!!!!!

This was the first video I ever saw of Usher's... I was Roller Skating with Harold Hunter at Pier 59, a Party for Paper Magazine. All the SKATEBOARDERS were there. Spencer Fujimoto and Alex Calderon! HA! That night was hilarious. RIP HAROLD!


I loved Usher in this video.


I drove Fonzworth to this videoset. He made me go back and get his violin! HA! Also I danced to this song in NY when Kate Moss had a private party and that's when someone stole my purse.


THIS SONG IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SONG. USHER WILL BE SINGING THIS TO ME ONE DAY. (MAYBE, IT WOULD BE COOL IF HE COULD SING IT FOR MY BDAY OR CHANGE THE WORDS FOR MY WEDDING - HA!!!!)

Ya'll Know I'm From Texas, RIGHT??? Tiffany's PLAYLIST

Brook Lynne Carter

I made friends with someone so cooooollll! Check her blog out.

Absolute Brook

Her name is Brook Lynne. Well, that's what she goes by and she's a fellow writer. She lives in Atlanta and is from the Bay. Some of you know that I went to school in Daly City in 1994 and hung out with all the Skateboarders at EMB back in the day. I know alot of hotspots in the Bay area. I also know alot of hotspots in Atlanta! HA!

I haven't been writing on the blog much because I've been traveling and writing. I was in Los Angeles and Austin. I will blog more about what I thought about the Oscars and Austin in later blogs.

For now, check out some of Brook Lynne's videos!

Brook Lynne

Follow her on her blog and send her some Gallo HARD Salami! HA!!!!!!! (Go hard!)

Oscars! The Superbowl of the Film World.

Even though everyone knows I love Cannes best since its the Olympics of the Cinema world!

I CANNOT WAIT!

INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS ALL THE WAY DAMMNIT!

KATHERYN BIGELOW!

PRECIOUS.

Stay Tuned...

I'm Still Standing...

In 2007 Elton John invited me and a few others to his 60th Bday party. It was held in NY at a chapel and when I arrived he stood at the front shaking everyone's hand! It was surreal when I walked in because I think I was the least famous person in the room. I could be right. HA! You can just imagine who was there.

He's a great person. He is Rock Royalty. He also lives in Atlanta believe it or not. (That information courtesy of my friend Elvis Mitchell, ha!)

I came across this song from his Bday bash concert at Madison Square Garden.
WOW.

Not for everyone.

Caution: This is not for everyone. I wasn't the best person in life in my early 20's. My friend Christine sent this to me today and I felt I should share this with you all. It's not too late to change your ways. It's not too late to be aware.

Seeking God with All Your Heart

Nothing worth having in life comes easily. The best relationships, the most rewarding work, the highest prizes, championships, salaries and trophies all come through hard work and effort. It is a law of life that the best things in life are the most difficult to attain. If it was easy, it would be cheap; if anybody can have it, then it really is without value.

Understanding the importance of effort, we should also understand that there are many things in life available to anyone willing to put the effort forth to achieve or obtain it. You can make a high salary, achieve recognition and be rewarded if you put forth the effort in the field best suited to your natural abilities. Beyond that, there are many areas of life in which ANYONE can succeed if they are willing to work at it. For example, you can have good relationships with people if you are both willing to work at it. A really great relationship does not come without effort. You must make the effort to talk, to listen, to ask, to inquire, to care, to help, to share, to encourage. However, you can make this happen with effort.

Yet, somehow, we often don’t believe that these same principles apply to having a strong relationship with God. On the one hand, we see it as something too difficult to attain. In our hearts we say, “I can’t see Him and it is not worth all the effort to pursue One that I cannot even see with my eyes or touch with my hands.” So we don’t put forth the effort. On the other hand, we see our relationship with God as one which requires no work on our part. We see it as something so easily achieved because God does all the work to make it happen. Now certainly, God did all the work to make it possible. That is undeniable. But what about our part in having a close relationship with God? Do we make the effort to seek Him, to know Him?

Praying may be free, but we must do it. Reading, studying and meditating on His word may be free, but it takes costly effort to do it. We will not know God any more than we know someone living on the other side of the earth unless we make the effort to know Him, to seek Him out, to be His friend.

And this takes maybe the greatest effort of all… the effort driven by faith in what is unseen. God is not seen by our eyes, He is not heard with our ears. Our sight and hearing of Him come spiritually. Our eyes tell us that no one is there when faith tells us that God is there and listening to us. Our eyes tell us that he doesn’t care while faith tells us that He cares very much.

It takes a lot of work to seek God. Don’t think that it doesn’t. However, with the seeking comes the promise that you can be as close to God as you want to be. The Bible says it like this: “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you… Seek me and you shall find Me when you seek after Me with all your heart.” So the question is: how close do you want to be to God?

Tiffany Limos has got to have IT...

Anything worth having is worth the hardwork and patience.
Sometimes it takes years of hardwork to get to the place where you want to be.
That goes for career and I recently discovered... relationships.
But there is alot of sacrifice involved.
If you are willing to sacrifice and workhard, you will be able to get there.

Spike Lee was always one who told me to work hard.

"Just keep plugging"
"Keep the tenacity!"



In my younger years, I never really believed in God.
But now, I have faith.
Faith in the Universe, in the Lord.
This isn't for everyone, but I've committed myself to the Lord.
That's what has seemed to work for me.
I was a very mean and unbalanced person previously. Many can attest to that.
I've been fortunate to still be living and I've taken that opportunity to change my ways for the better.
Its difficult for me to do the right thing.
I hope that you all out there find a way to stay positive and to always believe that things happen for a reason... and that everything will divinely work itself out.
