VIDEO: Shout out to Aaliyah! We miss you!!!

Man I miss Aaliyah! I was dancing around to Grooveshark (thanks for saving my musical life by the way Frannie!) and this song from the day came up.  "We Need A Resolution" Featuring Timberland.  I so loved this album.  I can't help but wonder what she would be creating by now and where her movie career would be.  She really hit it out of the park.  Sweet, sexy without trying to hard, funky cool dancer (who was the first, by the way,  to bring bellydancing to hiphop),  and just plain class.  This video was risky, very different musical flavour, fresh, and sizzling HAWT!  I wish I had me some snakes and a spiky tree in my living room!  Funny, this video was made in freaking 2001!  9 years ago and still hot and contemporary today!  A foward thinker.  Rocking hair, makeup, and styling.  Aww, I miss you girl!!

Fabulous!

Me and Maxwell Modeling in this Months InStyle Magazine!!!!!!!

You read it right!!!  Yes, I finally got my wish!!! Me and Maxwell together in InStyle!
Ok, well were not physically together, he is on page 366, but I AM ON PAGE 46!!! Which means of course that he has a copy of me in his apt, you know, cause he bought at least 10 copies of the magazine...so he knows I exist and is probably searching for me right at this moment..um...ok I digress... I'M FREAKING WELL FEATURED IN THIS MONTHS JUNE INSTYLE MAGAZINE!!! The one with Selma Hayek on the cover!!!!  Yahooooooo!!!!


Yep, its your girl!  Me!



Wait heres a closer look!

Hahaha! :)
(click on pic to get an even closer look:)

How did that happen you ask??  Well, I love InStyle Magazine and read it all the time. They featured a fabulous "Look For Less" that really appealed to me.  

You know I've been all about more color?!  This was their color issue that I told you about a couple months back that I got some great ideas from.  I had this great dress that I bought at H&M that was very summery and a bit saggy on the fit.  Although I adored the colors I wasn't sure it fit my body type.  But with the addition of the jacket it really worked!  So I gave it my spin and thanked InStyle for the inspiration!  I sent in my pic and didn't even know they were going to use it!!! And they did!  Ha!  I'm a top model ya'll:)  Tyra eat your heart out!!! 



Special shout out to Ann who gave me the heads up early.  She got the issue weeks before it came out here in Canada!  Love you Annabelle! Thanks InStyle, you made my month!!!

Maxwell, if your reading this, My name is Suzanne and I am an actor living  in Vancouver.  Please come and get me.

Now, go get you some!

ON SET: Commercial for Jello Pudding

I did a commercial last week for Jello! I played a mum with the cutest 6 year old kid ever. She was a real trouper staying up so late. It was hard enough for me, can you imagine for her!!

I wore my - what I now refer to as "Michelle Obama" wig.   While putting it on I got it swiped away from me by the makeup/hairstyist Trudi Eggerton-Ball who showed me a zillion times better way of wearing it. I gotta tell you, this woman was a wig magicaian!!! Seriously! She did wonders with it. First she pinned my locs up elaborately so that most of my hair mass was on the top, giving me height on the crown. Why didn't I think of that???!!!!! Fanfreakingtastic!!! I love this woman!!!

Look at the back!

Wicked!!!

Side view! Genius!

Lord knows I'd never be able to do it myself :(
Here is a very noisy video I took with my point and shoot camera. Hope you can hear the conversation and questions I asked her to share with you.  It was crazy in that makeup trailer!


I of course gave her much pressure to do a wig tutorial for you all a little later! Watch for it. She's amazing and has a ton of tips for wearing a wig and making it look natural!

Now go get you some!
