Behind the Lens with Celeb Photographer Andy Tsagaris

I recently had the opportunity to chat with celebrity photographer Andy Tsagaris at his sleek Manhattan studio-space. This was definitely a special interview as Andy has photographed many influential, beautiful, and interesting fashion & entertainment icons. Lydia Hearst-Shaw, designer extraordinaire Richie Rich, and celebrity stylist Philip Bloch are just a few of the notables that Andy has shot with his magical lens and creative eye. I was then given the chance to model for Andy as part of his latest campaign, "Be The Link." It was truly an honor to be included amongst all the famous faces and industry innovators. Even more invigorating was being able to delve into a celeb photographer's mind -- to find out what it's actually like to see life through Andy's worldly lens!

Wild Child Tara Reid Engaged & Married in Same Day

Party girl Tara Reid is officially off the market.

Reid tied the knot with Danish businessman Michael Lillelund in Greece on Saturday, which was quite a shock because the "I do’s" came only hours after she announced her engagement to the world via Twitter.

"I just got engaged!" the blonde American Pie star tweeted on August 13, followed by, "Greece married!" and “Love in Greece…I am now a wife :)”

Paris and Nicky Hilton, Katy Perry, Tara Reid, Ashley Greene, Emma Roberts and Rihanna were spotted wearing some Bohemian fashion. But sexy guys like Vampire Diaries' Ian Somerhalder, Usher or Kellan Lutz were in the attendance too.

LIV at Sun Life Stadium

Two seemingly different worlds collided Sunday night in South Florida during the Miami Dolphins season opener at Sun Life Stadium. I am not referring only to the two sets of football fans that came out to support their respective teams, one in support of the New York Jets and hailing from the cold north, and the other cheering on home team and local South Florida favorite, the Miami Dolphins, but of the traditional stadium experience and that of south beach nightlife. Sports fans and club-goers united under one roof to watch an epic edge-of-your-seat football game at Sun Life while celebrating the opening of the new LIV, which aims to revamp and enhance the traditional stadium scene with south beach flash and flair.

The Jean Shop

Well I have a favorite belt, yes I’m blogging about a belt. I’ve had this belt since college and trust me that was many many years ago. Anyway, The belt is worn in just right. It's a dark brown heavy leather belt which has been worn to a point where the belt now looks light brown and weathered. It's just beautiful and perfect. The problem is, it's torn in the back and now my lovely belt needs a replacement.

I was at the Apple store on 14th street and walked the block for a cab and passed by the Jean Shop. This place is amazing. Jeans and jackets hang on the wall in all shades of leather and denim, belts and shoes in display everywhere. They offer any style, color, wash - whatever you like in jeans.

Aguilera, Jonas Brothers Perform

In another demonstration of the symbiotic relationship between celebrities and those who make people care about them (those vile fiends), the notoriously flamboyant celeb blogger Perez Hilton celebrated his 31st birthday on Saturday in Los Angeles amidst numerous famous faces.*

Attendees of the b-day event at the Viper Room included Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Spencer Pratt, Amanda Bynes, Salman Rushdie, Tara Reid and Heidi Montag. (Can you spot the odd one out?)

The undisputed highlight of the night came courtesy of pop-pixie Christina Aguilera. Clad in a leopard print body-suit, she wittily serenaded Perez, “happy birthday dear Perezident,” à la Marilyn Monroe.
