Jesse Marco is just 21 years old, but this native New Yorker, who has already established himself on the nightlife scene for his fast hands and keen ear, has now successfully crossed over into the fashion world.
Still a student at NYU, Jesse spins regularly at a number of boldfaced nightspots in the city (including Stam and Lily favorite 1Oak.) Oh, and did we mention that he counts Jay-Z and Kanye West, as well as fashion royalty Marc Jacobs and Kate Moss amongst his audience members?
Recently, in addition to spinning many venues like Rock the Vote's official Lollapalooza after-parties at the Hard Rock Hotel, a French Connection party, a post-CFDA awards bash hosted by IMG at Goldbar, and the Calvin Klein “Secret Obsession” Fragrance launch (that never saw the light of day), Jesse has also just signed a modeling contract.
In his first week with his agency, he shot a campaign for London (and soon-to-be New York) giant Topshop, and has also worked with fashion favorite Terry Richardson on a Uniqlo campaign.
But, as Mark Ronson once said, it’s Jesse’s prowess in the DJ booth that merits the most praise. “Jesse’s adept technically and knowledgeable about umpteen genres of music,” the Grammy-award winning producer told Page Six Magazine. And, assuredly, his recent line-up of gigs would indicate that the city’s tastemakers have taken notice of this fresh, young talent and the energy he creates.
You can check Jesse out at www.myspace.com/thedjjm, and of course, keep an eye out for him in TopMan when it opens on Broadway!
JAMES FRANCO THINKS LIKE EVERY GUY ON WARPED TOUR...
AOL Moviefone caught up with James Franco - I don't consider weed to be any worse than having a beer.
I should really introduce this Pineapple Express star to a few bands here on Warped Tour. James you would have a blast on the road!
For more of James Franco, check out this video interview from NYTimes.com's T Magazine. He discusses his love of Beverly Hills 90210, playing James Dean, and what it's like to kiss Sean Penn in the upcoming Harvey Milk movie. I KNOW that when I kissed James Franco, he was milky smooth. Just kidding. I think he would be though. Hmm?
Our 'lil cholita hit the black carpet last night at the EA Sports premiere of Madden NFL '09 at STK Nightclub in West Hollywood. Also in attendence was the ever-thining Perez Hilton. Celesbians Tila Tequlla and Courtenay Semel. And new to the LA scene like a shiny penny is Leven Rambin we all remember her, she was the very young actress shagging Marc Ronson.
Wow, I bet Perez had a field day at this party. I hear Victoria and David Beckham showed up as well. Lucky!

by pierre baltadano
I think Tila was educated by Tyrone Biggums (see vid below) cause pour 'lil girl has gone and announced that her new album will be called I Have Terrets. She recently hit up her MySpace and announced that she would be releasing this gem of an album to help us "hot bitches get up...shake [our] asses and pop that booty!!!!," which I am all about. It helps the blood flow. Thanks Tila! Oh, and I think she MEANT to say Tourette's.
Kate Hudson is giving me witch on the September 2008 issue of W (stands for Witch) Magazine. Maybe this is a warning to all men who dare tamper with her heart. She will hex you! Witch, Witch, Witch, Witch, Witch I tells y'all. I wonder if she knows Suzanne Sansone?
Tila Tequila is now dating Yahoo's CEO Terry Semel's daughter Courtenay (Stank Eye) Semel. So now the drama for MTV is that Tila will not be returning for A Shot Of Love part 900.
Jewel is the new Mary Kay Cosmetics spokesmodel. A Kiss for Country campaign is a charity to help end domestic violence.
Jewel on being involved- It's a topic that's close to my heart. I was homeless for a year and saw first hand how sometimes the streets can be safer than what's at home.
Wow, this is realness. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jewel and our mutual friend, famed stylist Jessica Pastor, at one of her favorite LA restaurants Il Sole right before I went on tour with Katy. Jewel was everything Jessica said she was; beautiful, kind, and just had a real sense of togetherness.
Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, Robert Downy Jr. seems to be on top again. Rolling Stone Magazine properly titles the cover of the August 2008 issue To Hell and Back With Robert Downey Jr.
So its been forever since I've seen my gay BFF Ferras. Its hard not to spread yourself thin when your two best friends are major label recording artist that both happen to be on Capitol records. So I was out of my mind excited to hear that Katy and I's paths would be crossing with Ferras in Chicago. My lil Cholita Ferras was in Chi town to perform at LOLLAPALOOZA along side of Kayne West, MGMT, Uffie, The Ting Tings and such as and such as.
So it appears that Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick can't kiss enough girls on Gossip Girl to get away from all the gay rumors. Fact: they are both handsome, fit young mean. Fact: They are really touchy in public. Fact: They both share an apartment in between Chelsea and the West Village in Manhattan. Known to the gay community as home. Yes to the regualar passer-by it would seem that these to are gay lovers, but I'm here to tell you that Ed Westwick defenetley loves the ladies. I know this because I hung out with him and he didnt hit on me once. How rude! J/K I think both these guys are great, and who doesn't love Gossip Girl? Hellur!
Chace on being gay: “It’s kind of funny. But it’s like, you know, I guess some people assume there’s a seed of truth to it. People think where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” This is from August 3 edition of the UK's The Independent
