Emmy Rossum

Actress Emmanuelle Grey Rossum is also a singer-songwriter. She is known for appearing in movies such as “The Day After Tomorrow”, “Poseidon”, “The Phantom of the Opera” and “Mystic River”. A native born very close to me in New York City, New York, she was named after her grandfather “Emanuel”. Given the name Emmanuelle, she is better remembered as Emmy. She also happens to be the niece of Vera Wang related by marriage.

In 1997, she made her first TV appearance as a guest as Alison Martin in “Law & Order”. In 2000, she played the part of a young Audrey Hepburn in the ABC TV movie “The Audrey Hepburn Story”. (See my past posting on Audrey Hepburn) This same year in 2000, she starred as Deladis Slocumb an Appalachian orphan in “Songcatcher” making this her first major big screen appearance. Early last year in 2009, she played in the classic “Dragonball Evolution”. She mentions her role in Dragonball being the hardest thing she’s ever done.

“When else am I ever going to get to wear a latex cat suit and shout, ‘Did you steal my dragonball?’” 

In 2001, she graduated from the Manhattan private school Spence School. With the help of online extension courses offered by Stanford University’s Education Program for Gifted Youth (EPGY), she graduated high school at 15 years old and received her diploma. She is now currently a student at Columbia University.

During the early millennium, “Variety” magazine quoted Emmy as “One of the Ten to Watch” in 2000. She has also been seen on the front magazine covers of “Elle” January 2005, “Vegas” June 2009 and “Jack” (Italy) December 2009. The picture of Emmy in latex is also from a shoot in the Jack (Italy) December 2009 issue. In the “Maxim” June 2009 “Hot 100” issue, she was ranked as #67. The last photo came from the live awards ceremony recognizing her #67 spot in Maxim. I wouldn’t have expected anything less especially with her looking her hottest in latex. 

Katherine Jenkins

Katherine Jenkins is a Welsh classical-popular crossover singer. Her music is a combination of arias, hymns, light classical music and popular songs. Beginning of this year, she is scheduled as one of two mentors or judge on ITV1’s “Popstar to Operastar” on the regular Friday night show. In her earlier years from1990 to 1996, she joined as a member of the Royal School of Church Music Cathedral Singers. Her talent won the St Cecilia Award which is the highest RSCM award for female choristers. For three years, she was also a member of the National Youth Choir of Wales winning the BBC Radio 2 Welsh Choirgirl of the Year contest twice as well as the BET Welsh Choirgirl of the Year competition. She continued to overachieve winning the the Pelenna Valley Male Voice Choir Scholarship for the most potential for a young singer. This led to her winning a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music at 17 years old. There she had the opportunity to study Italian, German, French and Russian. Once again, she graduated with honors along with a music teacher’s diploma.

With her teaching diploma, she did work as a freelance singing teacher as a tour guide on the London Eye. Along the same time she modeled as a contestant in a modeling competition eventually becoming the Face of Wales 2000. She then took to a passion with a musical career. Her luck changed when the Universal Classics & Jazz heard her demo and she was invited for an interview. During the interview, she gave it her best singing Rossini's “Una voce poco fa”. The interview turned out to be a success that they offered her a six-album deal which turned out to be the most lucrative in the UK’s classical recording history worth an estimated £1 million.

No time wasted, from 2004 to 2008 she sold more than 4,000,000 copies with six out of seven of her albums peaking #1 in the classical charts. Her debut album “Premiere”, became her fastest-selling mezzo-soprano to date and earned the title as the first British classical crossover artist to achieve two #1 albums in the same year. Along with that title, she also became the first female artist to win two consecutive Classical BRIT Awards. The second album “Second Nature”, sat at the #16 spot under the UK pop charts and became the Album of the Year in the 2005 BRIT Awards.

On August 28, 2005, she made her first performance live at Nostell Priory, West Yorkshire with the Italian version of Dolly Parton’s “I Will Always Love You” (L'Amore Sei Tu). This song was the first on her third album “Living A Dream”. Following this album’s release, she was able to hold the top three spots in the classical crossover music chart. It also stayed at the #1 spot for close to a year and #4 in the pop album charts. Once again, she also won the classical BRIT award for Album of the Year with the third album.

On November 6, 2006, her fourth album was launched placing #5 in the mainstream charts. The anticipated success from her past albums made it easier to sell over 50,000 copies in its first week resulting as a record for its genre and monopolizing the top four albums on HMV’s classical charts. Then on November 19, 2007, her fifth album “Rejoice” was released. This time the album ended up as #3 in the pop album charts surpassing the Spice Girls and Girls Aloud. (See my original Media entries last year on both groups)

 “I never imagined when I was a young girl listening to them on the radio that I would outsell the Spice Girls and Celine Dion. It’s almost too much to take in. I can’t thank my fans enough for all their support.”

Then on October 20, 2008, “Sacred Arias” was released departing as her last album with Universal Music. She moved on signing with Warner Music and in October 19, The Telegraph quoted that she signed on the biggest classical recording deal in history for $10 million (£5.8 million). It was on October 26, 2009, when she released her newest album “Believe” which was her first with Warner Music. During the beginning of 2007, she was recognized by British young people’s Sunday Times Rich List for the first time. She was ranked as the 62^nd richest young person in the UK worth around £9 million. By the end of 2006, it was said she sold around two million records since her 2004 debut.

Katherine has also made appearances in other events and on the television. In September 2007, she walked the catwalk for Naomi Campbell’s Fashion Relief event for charity in a Julien MacDonald dress. (See my Naomi Campbell past entry) The dress was then bought for £10,000 by Sir Philip Green. On October 21, 2007, she sang “Time to Say Goodbye” along with Andrea Bocelli on the “Strictly Come Dancing” results show. In December 15^th, she made another performance singing “You Raise Me Up” on “The X Factor” final with contestant Rhydian Roberts. Then on the fifth series, episode 3 of “The Apprentice”, she sang Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” for the winning team Ignite as part of a private recital. This show was finally aired on March 8, 2009 on BBC One.

With Katherine’s success in life, she also experienced regrets as well. She admitted in November 2008 to “The Daily Mail” then when she was a student she experimented with class A drugs (cocaine and ecstasy) and cannabis. She then went on and added that she was introduced to them by peers at the London’s Royal College of Music. She decided to turn her life around in 2003 quitting the drugs after signing her record deal.

 “the biggest regret of my life”

All of the photos of Katherine in her rubber dress came from her performance on October 24, 2009 in concert at GAY at the Heaven Nightclub in London. She was 29 years old at the time promoting her new album “Believe” which was scheduled to release the next day. At least in the appearance I am a full believer on how sexy she really can be in her rubber dress. Looks like the Spice Girls and Girls Aloud had a positive influence on her in fashion too!

Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace

Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace is a British glamour model, TV personality and fashion designer. It was in 2006 when she made a name for herself in the seventh series of reality TV show “Big Brother” (UK). When she became a contestant of the show on Day 12, she gained a reputation for her feuds. At the end, she made a third place finishing on the show and is now known for her time on the show. She also became the highest placed female housemate of that series. The success of the show has led her to new opportunities for other TV work for example, in October 2008 a small part in the thriller TV series “Dead Set” which was based on Big Brother on Channel 4 and E4. Of course she plays herself in two episodes 1.01 and episode 1.05. The last episode she appears as a zombie version of herself.

Before all the fame, she made the decision in the summer of 2005 to escalate her career with £4,000 on breast implants. Apparently they made a good investment for her as she did work as a glamour model. After her appearance on the Big Brother show, she has appeared in photo shoots with “Nuts”, “Zoo” and the “Daily Star”. Then in 2007, she even made her calendar debut. Other appearances she has made include a small appearance on “The Charlotte Church Show”.

Aside from the fame and glory in her home country, she is an active supporter with the NHS Stop Smoking campaign in association with Cancer Research and specifically supported “No Smoking Day 2008”. She has also given aid in the “Put the Knives and Guns Down!” campaign. This program attempts to get teenagers off the streets to prevent the increasing numbers of British shootings and stabbings. As for her Stop Smoking campaign, I personally don’t want her stop being smoking hot as you can see her rocking out like a rock star in her smoking hot latex outfit.

Sherrie Rose

Sherrie Rose is not only an actress but, a producer, director, and a screenwriter. She has made appearances on shows like “Miami Vice” and “Married... with Children” in the episode titled “Do Ya Think I'm Sexy” in 1990 as Mandi.

Never becoming an official Playmate, she modeled for the magazine’s special editions for a few years. In 1997, Sherrie played the character Prof. Ursula Undershaft /Aftershock in the sequel of Black Scorpion titled “Black Scorpion II: Aftershock” in a red PVC outfit as can be seen from her photos shown.

Joan Severance

Today’s entry I wanted to dedicate to Throwback Thursday. The theme is about Good vs. Evil in PVC superheroes. On top of that, both actresses share a common tie with Playboy as I will present later on. We begin with actress Joan Severance who is also a former fashion model. It was during the late 1980s when she built her modeling talent to launch her acting career. In 1987, she played her first role in acting with a minor part in the original “Lethal Weapon” movie.

In the early 1990s, she has played parts that represented femme fatale roles in lower budget horror and murder mystery movies. A few of these recognized movies include “Lake Consequence” (1993), “Criminal Passion” (1994) and “Payback” (1995). She is probably most remembered for her part in the television series “Wiseguy” where she plays a villainess who is half of a brother/sister crime team. In addition to the screen, she has appeared on the front covers of “Playboy” magazine on the January 1990 and November 1992 issues. Both issues featured her in a nude pictorial. She has also seen in a few music videos such as Roxy Music’s “Flesh + Blood” and for the song “Rhythm of Love” by the Scorpions. Coincidentally, having experience with the Scorpions, she became a black scorpion as the main character in the movie “Black Scorpion” in 1995. The success of this movie led to a sequel where she starred and co-produced “Black Scorpion II: Aftershock” in 1997. In 1999, she also took on a major role in the movie “The Last Seduction 2”. As the Black Scorpion, there was no shortage of her being the last seduction as she fights in a black PVC outfit giving justice a nasty sting.
