Lady Gaga Wearing Shoes with Male Genitalia Shaped Heels on American Idol
Posted by Bruce Foster on May 15, 2011
The controversial American singer wore shoes with heels in the shape of the male anatomy on the “American Idol” show – one of the most watched television program in the United States.
The original singer shocked the producers of the television show when she showed up on the movie set where she took part in the recording of a special clip, in which she was supposed to discuss with the four finalists, wearing platforms with plastic heels shaped like Phallus.
The producers censored out the heels of her shoes covering them with the American Idol logo, whenever they showed up in the picture.
According to the website TMZ.com, Lady Gaga bought this special shoes from the British brand stores “Void of Course” for $4,500.
Although the shoes were not depicted for the viewers of the show, Lady Gaga still managed to shock once more by showing contestant James Durbin how to move his hips while they danced and she climbed on his back. Also, Christian McCreery, the country music singer, blushed when Lady Gaga suggested him to treat the microphone on stage as if it were his girlfriend.
MY THOUGHT
So, would you worry if your kid is gaga over Lady Gaga?

She also expects to get her birthday wish from her son, Manny: a Hermés bag worth P1 million.

SHOPPING FOR BEAUTIFUL SUMMER SHOES
How to shop for spring and summer shoe trends

Now that your boots are snuggled securely at the back of your closet, it's time to turn your toes toward shoes for spring and summer. As you start mentally putting together outfits for the season, think of shoes as an easy way to bring current trends into your wardrobe and liven up the items you already have.
Shopping for shoes online gives you far more options than if you just hit the stores. Searching sites that offer designer items at a discount also lets you get runway-fresh trends at more affordable prices. Keep these key trends in mind as you shop for spring and summer shoes:
* Intense color. Bright, saturated hues are everywhere for the spring/summer seasons, both in the form of color blocking and multi-colored stripes. To bring the no-holds-barred color trend to your wardrobe, opt for shoes like raspberry suede strappy heels from Christian Louboutin. Whether you pair them with neutrals for a pop of color or wear them with grass greens, cobalt blues or citron yellows, colorful shoes will keep you on trend.
* Espadrilles. The beachy classic is being reinvented by any number of designers and shoemakers, so there's something to fit every fashionista's taste. Whether you choose a flat version perfect for going to the beach, or something more dramatic, like a platform iteration from Fendi that features grosgrain ribbon to lace around the ankle, you'll find that this classic style can be worn in a multitude of ways.
* Strappy styles. Soaking up the sun is one of the best parts of summer, and the strappy styles that are popping up everywhere let your feet in on the pleasure, too. The trend takes a lot of forms, featuring straps in every shape and size, from bold and wide to slender and demure, as on strappy wedges from Cole Haan. That means that you can adapt it to almost any situation, whether it's a Sunday brunch with Mom or a night on the town with the girls.
* Platform sandals. As long as your shoes take you one step closer to supermodel heights, you'll be guaranteed to be in style this summer. Towering heels are everywhere, and a platform makes it that much easier to wear stratospheric heels. Any number of other trends fit into the platform style - you'll find them in bold colors, as espadrilles, as wedges and embellished with straps.
MY THOUGHTS
I love shopping for beautiful shoes online. Especially when someone else is paying. Kidding aside, what's fun was choosing the shoes while you're 'miles away', as my old friend would describe it. The wonders of technology. Brought a different taste to shopping alone (with someone).

RUNNING WITHOUT BEAUTIFUL SHOES
BAREFOOT RUNNING
http://newstabulous.com/barefoot-running-here-to-stay/11672/
Next time you happen upon a 5- or 10-K race happening in your area, have a look at the runner’s feet. Chances are you’ll see a few folks wearing shoes that look more like socks, and even a few sporting bare feet. What’s this all about?
The barefoot and minimalist running movements are gathering steam in North America and around the world. Their message is simple; human beings were meant to run barefoot; high-tech cushioned running shoes are excessive and we should be weaned off our dependance on them.
Strengthening the barefoot case are new scientific studies emerging from places like Harvard University, a postive article in the New York Times, and minimalist-friendly products being launched like the Nike Free Series and the New Balance Minimus line.
Barefoot advocates encourage runners new to minimalism to reduce their use of conventional running shoes gradually and to adopt a more joint-friendly gait while running. Running in cushioned shoes allows an athlete to strike the ground with their heel first, as opposed to the mid- or front-foot strikes that occur naturally when running sans footwear. This, they put forward, adds up to better form, less injuries, and ultimately higher levels of fitness and agility.
Want to give barefoot a go? Start with a few low-mileage runs and progress slowly, using your body’s indications as guide. More information about transitioning to barefoot running can be found at runbare.com
MY THOUGHTS
I can't picture it. What about the thorns? And broken glasses? Never mind the dirt.

14% HIDE BEAUTIFUL SHOES
Shoe shame: 14% of women hide some of their purchases
http://www2.wsls.com/lifestyles/2011/may/08/tdflair03-shoe-shame-14-of-women-hide-some-of-thei-ar-1017408/
By RICHARD MULLINS | Media General News Service
Published: May 08, 2011
Line up seven women, and at least one likely has a covert pair of shoes she bought but didn't tell her significant other about because they cost so much.
But oh, shoe shopping makes many women happier. The average American woman owns at least 17 pairs of shoes, though many women have three times that many.
Such are a few of the shoe insights that ShopSmart magazine found in their survey of 1,009 American women, offering something of a window into the female mind.
We'll get to the nitty-gritty of the stats, but for now, a few women have passionate opinions to share on shoes:
"Shoes are like boys and chocolate, you see a pair somewhere that you like, and you can't stop thinking about them," said Sharon Britton of Tampa, Fla., while opening her closet and guessing she may have three times the average of 17. That puts her in the top 13 percent of shoe fans.
Her latest pair, "These wonderful, golden, glittery, 5-inch Steve Madden formal heels with a zipper up the back. … But I can't pick a favorite, I love Michael Kors, Juicy, Vince Camuto, Mark Nason boots." There are flip-flops, too.
"Shoes never make your butt look big, you don't have to worry about squeezing into them if you've put on a couple of pounds and they can instantly make you feel sexier," said Lisa Lee Freeman, editor-in-chief of ShopSmart, published by the parent organization of Consumer Reports. "Maybe that's why, despite the economy, we're still buying shoes."
If you're wondering how many black shoes a woman needs, Karen Whetsell has a few around.
"Oh my God, I love shoes, I probably have 20 pairs of just black shoes," Whetsell said. "Buying a new pair of shoes, ah, it always makes you feel better." Whetsell's daughter Savannah chimed in, saying, "I bought this whole outfit, and the shoes, just when I went out for retail therapy."
Now for some shoe insights:
•More than half of women own more than 10 pairs, and 13 percent have more than 30 pairs. That's not including athletic shoes.
•Women typically buy three pairs a year, and on average spend $49 per pair, but, nearly one-third have spent more than $100 on a pair.
•Almost unheard of even five years ago, online shoe shopping is now a "national obsession," with a third of women regular online shoe buyers. Zappos.com says some of their top customers "spend well over $10,000 annually."
•About one in five women go shoe shopping to cheer themselves up.
•Although 86 percent of women say they tell their significant other about shoe purchases, 14 percent admit to "hiding at least one purchase."
As for the types of shoes women buy, most prefer low-rises, but occasionally go for height. Almost 40 percent say flats are their favorite; 8 percent wear heels more than 2½ inches high on a regular basis; and one quarter of women wear 4-inch heels for a special occasion.
About half of women bought an "ugly" pair for comfort, but more women are willing to withstand pain for fashion: 60 percent versus 49 percent in 2007, and six in 10 women carry a backup pair to change into after a party or event.
That fashion can inflict a physical price, too. About half of women have shoe-related blisters, sprains or even broken bones, and one in three had "an evening ruined by an uncomfortable pair of shoes" and one in four said they have had a fall.

BEAUTIFUL BOAT SHOES
The Ultimate Boat Shoe - The Joya Cuba
By Michael J. McCurdy, Founder/Publisher - HealthNewsDigest.com
Apr 24, 2011 - 8:50:09 AM
(HealthNewsDigest.com) - Boat shoes have been my choice of footwear for many years, and in all seasons except winter. As soon as spring arrives, I slip into them for wearing around the house, shopping, driving and weekends. And now I have experienced what I call "The Ultimate Boat Shoe."
Modern boat shoes were invented in 1935 by Paul Sperry after noticing his dog's ability to run easily over ice or snow. Using a knife, he cut siping into his shoes' soles, inspiring a shoe perfect for boating. Boat shoes are used by sailors, as the name suggests; however, since the 1980s they have become fashionable footwear in America, in the UK [1] and in France.
Once you slip into the Joya Cuba, you'll feel yourself standing more erect, while experiencing a soft interior cushion that puts a spring in your every step. Fresh air is pumped into them by a unique system of air ducts, which also absorbs and removes all moisture. A beautifully designed shoe, that makes people curious enough to ask you where you got them!
A Brief History of Joya
In late 2008, Karl Mueller, Jr. and Claudio Minder launched Joya in a dormitory in Switzerland. Karl wanted to develop a shoe that provided the same benefits as MBT without the "learning curve" for the customer or the retailer. A shoe that would instantly provide a sensation of emotional well-being and joy. With eight styles of black shoes, they began knocking on retailer's doors. At first, most retailers refused to carry the shoes. Karl and Claudio looked like two young kids trying to sell shoes, and retailers doubted they would last long. Undeterred, Karl and Claudio started selling the Joya shoes at stands in local markets and fairs. They sold 250 pairs in 5 days at their first fair. Retailers started to take notice, and gradually started to carry the shoes. A short 2 years later, Joya has exploded, and is now in over 1,500 independently owned comfort shoe stores throughout Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Joya shoes will now be arriving in the United States at fine independent shoe retailers nationwide. Total Relief Footwear is delighted and honored to be in the first group of retailers invited to carry the Joya brand. For more information, go to:

NEW PACQUIAO SHOES FROM NIKE
New Pacquiao shoes for Mosley bout

http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/sports/04/19/11/new-pacquiao-shoes-mosley-bout
MANILA, Philippines – Nike Inc. is coming out with the latest Manny Pacquiao signature shoes due for release in time for his May 7 fight against American boxer Shane Mosley.
Website OpposingViews.com showed a photo of the shoes, which carry the colors of the Philippine flag -- red, white and blue.
The shoes will have Pacquiao’s “MP” logo on the soles plus a print of the May 7 fight date on the shoe's tongues.
Nike, however, has yet to announce the shoe's official release date.
Pacquiao, who first teamed up with the American sports apparel firm in 2007, is the first Filipino athlete to internationally endorse Nike.
Prior to his fight against Antonio Margarito last year, he launched an official Nike outfit.
He also had a special pair of Nike shoes for his fight against Ricky Hatton in 2009.
MY THOUGHTS
Wonder how much Manny Pacquiao's going to get from Nike. On second thought, why should we care. We're just proud. Period.
