J Sutta is on course to become the unexpected breakout solo pop star from the supergroup The Pussycat Dolls.

0

J Sutta already has topped US Billboard’s Dance Chart four times with #1 singles, including collaborations with Grammy Winner Dave Aude and legendary Paul Van Dyk. Finally, she is starting to break the ice on a more commercial level with her new single “Forever” which is already #59 on the extremely competitive US Top 40 Radio chart and her Music Video for the song is gaining popularity at rocket speed. Watch the video here —->

This is only the beginning, as J has an album due out this summer with the majority of the production collaboration from multi Grammy winning producer Rico Love (Beyonce, Usher, David Guetta). One of the follow up singles features Mr Worldwide himself, Pitbull. Additionally she has worked with extremely edgy and current producers from the UK  such as The Code and S-X, all of which contributing to crafting her own identity as the star of the show rather than a pretty face and long legs in the background.

J Sutta had this to say about her latest music video release “Forever”

“Magic is powered by belief. If you believe in something then it is real. We live in a time where we have been taught to see with blinkers on. We often can’t see past the limitations that society  has imposed on us. We are so used to logic that we tend to neglect magic. Once in a while, if we are fortunate enough, our minds open up and connect with truth beyond what has been taught to us in classrooms or media. That is when we can vibrate at a higher level and play with the fairies and ride the unicorns.”

0

Daniel Bohbot, creator of Hale Bob defines tradition once again while others show their Fall/Winter 2016 collections, Hale Bob explores another path. Inspired by the iconic music festival, Coachella, Bohbot is unveiling a special collection for Summer 2016 that captures the spirit and style of that experience.

“Fashion has evolved and fewer people than ever plan six months in advance. They want to have access to things that they see immediately. So I have decided upon a new train of thought for Ready-To-Wear: ‘See it now, buy it now, wear it now.’ This is why we will have four, rather than two collections per year,” Daniel Bohbot stated. On March 17th, 2016 Hale Bob showcased 36 pieces at the Pacific Design Center for Style Fashion Week.

The Hale Bob 2016 Spring/Summer collection draws its inspiration from exotic  paradises. The prints are based on everything from Moroccan tiles to jungle leaves, tropical florals and majestic animals, with boho-chic, paisley scarves and ornamental Silk chiffon tunics, voluminous maxi dresses and billowy caftans transport you to Coachella’s desert nights under the stars.

All prints, hand-beading and special treatments are developed at the Hale Bob studio in Los Angeles, making each piece special and unique.

T Fashion shoot includes an article of Professional and passionate Mixed Martial Artist (MMA) Fighter, Karen Darabedyan who in the last year and a half struggled to find opponents in a few of his bouts due to his dangerous background and skills of fighting style. Darabedyan  returns to the cage to compete again this weekend; Friday March 4th vs Pablo Sabri in the “Lights Out Promotion & Bash Entertainment” presenting “California Xtreme Fighting, The Return.”

Karen Darabedyan is an Armenian mixed martial artist who have positioned himself as a very well-rounded fighter through diverse and extensive training currently training under HAYASTAN MMA training center with Gokor Chivitchian and Gene LeBell. Sensei Darabedyan as his students may formally conduct him in forms of their respect in the Dojo to whom they refer to as their Master instructor of their Martial arts education and training. He is a very respected figure to his students, his people of Armenia as well as in the sport of MMA. He has much passion in teaching of his diverse skills and knowledge of Mixed Martial Arts to the younger generation, as well as assisting his teammates and other Top Fighters in preparation for competition. His passion in this sport as he feels to have become a big part of him, is also a reason he strives as to becoming the best in this game of MMA.

Darabedyan began studying karate at the age of 5. Taekwondo at the age of 9, earning his black belt in both at age 18. He began expanding his martial arts skills and training in middle school by training boxing, kick boxing, judo and wrestling; earning a black belt in judo by age 16 and establishing an undefeated record of 12-0 amateur boxing record by 18. By High school, he claimed two judo state championship titles and placed third in the nation. Darabedyan entered the world of grappling at age 16 placing 1st in the Intermediate Men’s No-Gi Lightweight division at the 2004 Grapplers Quest West 5 and winning 1st place at under 189.9 pounds in the 2007 World Grappling Games Best of West. Darabedyan began his 1st MMA bout at age 18 by win of 1st round Knock out. Karen Darabedyan  has compiled a 11-6 record.

Despite Karen’s strong judo and grappling background, he tends to favor keeping the fight on his feet as a striker, as his first fight with a win by KO he showcased his power in his punches which brings me to conclude by saying, Darabedyan is a very dangerous opponent to be up against. Darabedyan believes and see himself in his capability, to be of Top ranking fighter in “The UFC” and possibly being a World Champion in his Bantamweight Division 155 or Welterweight Division 175. Darabedyan.
