Getting To Know... Tenley Nordstrom

Up-and-coming model Tenley Nordstrom has decided to walk away from the industry. In an honest and open interview, she talks to Bobbysix.com about giving it all up: 

Modelling has been a vehicle for me to travel and experience different sides of the world and people, but it's not like it has given me a whole lot more than that. I still really love the medium of photography though. For instance, Sally Mann is somebody I think is amazing, and she has nothing to do with fashion. As far as looking at maybe, Italian Vogue, I can see through it all now. I know what goes into it so the glamour has gone. I'm still grateful for everything that has happened - I wouldn't be the person I am without it -  but I'm at peace with that and I can use what I've learned elsewhere now.

The reason, more than any other, that I'm quitting modeling is because of the superficiality. I am not a superficial person and I can no longer live in a completely superficial world.... READ THE FULL INTERVIEW HERE.

Madonna - Celebration

From the early pop genius of Rescue Me and Lucky Star, through the blonde bombshell years of Vogue and Express Yourself to her William Orbit collaborations and beyond, Celebration is a comprehensive journey through the Queen of Pop’s career.

The album boasts a new single, Celebration, co-produced by Oakenfold and Madonna and another brand new track. Okay, so neither song is worth writing home about but, generally, this double album - digitally re-mastered from the original tapes - offers classic hit after classic hit. The re-mastering has given the songs a fresh new edge and they serve to remind what a massive influence she has had on pop culture over the past quarter of a century. Today’s pretenders to her throne seem watered down and hackneyed in comparison. She might be knocking on a bit now but, simply, the likes of Lady GaGa aren't fit to shine Madonna's shoes.
