Trailer: John Cameron Mitchell’s HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES

Directed by John Cameron Mitchell and featuring Elle Fanning, Alex Sharp, and Nicole Kidman, HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES is not exactly the teen romance film you would expect from the film’s title. Think, Sci-Fi West Side Love Story.

Kaleigh, “Fading”: Music Video Viewers Choice Award Winner

TasteTV and the MUSIC CALIFORNIA VIDEO AWARDS announced that Kaleigh, “Fading” is  a Music Video Viewers Choice Award Winner for the MUSIC CALIFORNIA VIDEO AWARDS.

With her new single “Fading”, Kaleigh didn’t hold back any emotion whatsoever. An alternative pop track, the edgy lyrics complement fluid melodies and aggressive tonalities. The message is powerful and inspiring: cherish the ones you love, and don’t forget to tell them you love them. Kaleigh says, “Each day people get lost in the aggravation and turmoil of life and forget to cherish the people in their lives that love and support them most of all….[I] wrote this song as a reminder to people to stop and think about what kind of effect neglect or lack of emotional expression can have on a person you claim to love.”

Directed by Kenny Taylor, the “Fading” music video features Matt Cornett (Speechless; Nickelodeon’s Bella and the Bulldogs) as Kaleigh’s beau. Looking wistfully out the window, she recalls innocent memories from when they were younger, like playing a board game, and how things have faded as they’ve grown apart and become distant over the years. Will they manage to reconnect?

The MUSIC CALIFORNIA VIDEO AWARDS show takes place in one of San Francisco’s unique music venues, Neck of the Woods, and is an amazing evening bringing together music videos, musician appearances, fans, and of course music video awards.

Below video: “Meant to Be

 

After releasing her debut international single Livin’ the Life, co-written by highly sought-after music producer Jim Beanz and later remixed by popular Dutch DJ Afrojack, the singer/song writer recently released her newest single Meant to Be. Birla’s latest dance track is shaping up to be another mega hit for the fast-rising pop sensation already becoming certified gold and her sensational music video generating almost 7 million views on YouTube in a mere 2 months. Ananya has always had a penchant for doing things differently, and as she taught herself to play the guitar using internet video tutorials, she created a love affair with music that only grew as time passed.

 

Before realizing her true talent and passion for music, Ananya had already cut out a spot for herself among the elite in the business world. While most teenagers at the age of 17 are getting ready to graduate high school and find their path in life, Ananya was creating her first start-up, Svatantra Microfinance. With a strong vision for helping the poor become economically self-sustainable, Ananya created the microfinance organization to support women entrepreneurs in the Indian rural areas to further grow their business. As of April 2016, the company had grown to more than 600 employees across 70 branches in four Indian states, and won the Gold Award for Best Start-Up. A woman with no limits, Ananya’s second business, CuroCarte, curates rare, high quality, handicrafts designed for the 21st century luxe society from across the globe and makes them accessible through an e-commerce platform.
