Going Going Gone....
Ever since i shifted to my new office, i havent had lunch at all. had stopped having breakfast much before. Even in the previous office i kept pushing lunch to 3 pm, then4 pm, then 5pm. Finally now i am at a stage when i do not even feel hungry and can discard lunch altogether. whats gotten into me? I'm going around telling people at work "Food is the enemy etc". But i *love* the way my body is getting skinny. esp the way the pelvic bones are now jutting out - *finally - welcome back my babies!*

Plus, i have told this new guy at work that i will not have lunch until the day he has lunch/breakfast with me. To which the ingrateful bastard said "ok. then starve away". I was so fuming that day. and even though he said later on that he was just teasing, doesnt mean i can go back on my word.

Anyways, he is sooo cute. and then there is this other guy at work who is soooo hot! Oh My! all of a sudden there are two hot guys at work. who do i go after? Alas. both are "taken".

Why am i not taking names? Because i dont want to embarass them. There have been idiots at work trying to get dirt on me. The comment i made on Indian Express about me wanting a tattoo in my arse has been goinga round at work. These ppl are suppposed to loook at me with respect, not leer. Ahhh -who am i kidding! I dont mind whichever way they look at me:). And now, even i am Google-ing up names from my office to see if anyone has an alter ego on the net. Sad to say, except for a couple, all the rest are duds.

Tom Ford Worship

VF Hollywood Issue - Keira (check), Scarlett (double check), and Tom (how did he plant himself on the VF cover? :)

Heres the much hyped VF holywood issue cover - directed by Tom.















Notice one thing - Rachel McAdams is absent. She was the one who fired her assistant for booking her on theVF shoot and not telling her about the expected nudity(with TF at the helm), then she changed her mind, and came back to complete the shoot, and then finally she wasnt comfortable enough and walked out again.

Notice another glaring thing - If Tom had said "the whole issue wil be naked people without clothes", then why is *he* wearing clothes - a full suit, nonetheless!!

I think he has pulled another one of those master strokes. Tom Ford you are a genius! Love the cover! Not crazy about those two actresses, but very stylish and love the black background color.

Heres an excerpt from VF's site

GRAYDON CARTER AND TOM FORD TALK ABOUT FORD'S ROLE PRODUCING VANITY FAIR'S HOLLYWOOD PORTFOLIO Fashion icon Tom Ford, former Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent creative director and the guest artistic director of Vanity Fair's 2006 Hollywood portfolio, says of the sexy Annie Leibovitz cover shot of Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson, and Ford himself, "People won't believe me, but I did not want to be on the cover." Ford had envisioned a gorgeous female threesome, but when one of the young actresses demurred as the clothes started coming off, they were left with only two. "Three girls in a bed is a bedful of girls, but two girls in a bed are lesbians. At the end of the shoot, Annie asked me to slip into the picture as my contributor's photo," says Ford. Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter adds, "When I saw the shot of Keira and Scarlett, and Tom, I thought the cover worked better with the three of them."The Hollywood Issue of Vanity Fair hits newsstands in New York and Los Angeles on February 8, and nationally on February 14."We didn't force anyone to take off their clothes," insists Ford. "In a couple of instances we had to ask them to put them back on! I've always said, and I mean it, that I find people better-looking without clothes than with clothes. I also did not want the portfolio to be about fashion, but rather to try to bring out some side of each subject's character," says the man who turned Gucci into a luxury powerhouse."There are two Hollywoods," says Ford, "the real-life Hollywood, where people go to work and do their jobs, and the mythical Hollywood, which is defined by the films and images you've seen." The portfolio addresses the latter, says Ford.Of working with Ford, Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter says that "Tom was, from beginning to end, a gentleman and a wonderful collaborator. A perfectionist certainly. But funny, and entertaining, and always in good spirits. I can see why Tom has been so successful. He can focus his attention on something and hold it for a good spell. He was at all but six shoots for the portfolio, overseeing everything from location, clothes, and lighting to the position of a subject's hand.""My main criteria in considering what individuals to include in the portfolio were 'Am I tired of seeing them, or do I want to see more of them?' and 'Are they part of the New Hollywood?'" says Ford. He considers this "one of those New Hollywood years," explaining that "the buzz isn't around the usual suspects." Ford names featured portfolio players such as Philip Seymour Hoffman, Heath Ledger, and Jake Gyllenhaal as being part of the New Hollywood.The actors in the portfolio didn't always do what Ford wanted. He envisioned Eric Bana "in a Speedo, stretched out across the water with his body just floating, shot from above." Bana wasn't comfortable with that, but the resulting photo still smacks of L.A. fantasy. "I had a great time telling Graydon that I was photographing Harvey and Bob Weinstein wrestling nude in front of a fireplace like Alan Bates and Oliver Reed in Women in Love, which actually I think would have made a great picture," says Ford. "In the end we shot a powerful portrait of them both fully clothed."Most of the subjects were eager to go along with Ford's visions (or fantasies), which include Peter Sarsgaard in Japanese bondage posing for Art Streiber; Jason Schwartzman alongside a nude model "in a contemporary take on a film still from The Graduate," says Ford; Taye Diggs as a centerfold; and Pamela Anderson and Mamie Van Doren in—what else?—a cleavage-baring shot. The portfolio's youngest member was dying to wear Chanel, Ford explains, so, in the ultimate game of dress-up, 12-year-old Dakota Fanning got styled just like an adult. Other stars in the portfolio include Reese Witherspoon, George Clooney, Sienna Miller, Viggo Mortensen, and Natalie Portman.-


BTW, there is also talk of the VF cover shot being Photoshopped (that TF was added later on)....any truths? Eric Bana refused to shoot "in a Speedo, stretched out across the water with his body just floating, shot from above"...but Tom why didnt YOU do it?
