SAMANTHA RONSON HAS BETTE DAVIS EYES

Samantha Ronson performing at The Viper Room with Jalopy 2009

On a dark and stormy night...

FINE, who am I kidding a lil drizzle in LA and everyone goes crazy!  On the corner of Sunset Blvd and Larrabee in a lil joint known as The Viper Room gathered a group of rockers, fashionistas and twitter fans.  For those of you unfamiliar with The Viper Room, it was once owned by actor Johnny Depp and was once a hang-out for Hollywood's hottest young actors, regulars included Jennifer Aniston and Sean Penn.

Lead vocalist and guitarist, Luke Sundquist took the stage with his band Jalopy and performed their songs for an electric audience.  Luke who was once Samantha Ronson's guitarist rocked the crowd and made one special request.  During the middle of Jalopy's set, the lead singer (Luke) requested that Samantha come up on stage with the band and sing a song with them.  

Samantha took to the stage in front of a screaming audience and sang a cover of Kim Carnes "Bette Davis Eyes."  It's always fun to see one of your friends be able to perform live and rile up a crowd.  It's even more encouraging to see them continue with a laugh even if they mess up.  

Check out a lil snippet recorded from the night.  Apologies for the bumpy part, there was a dancing girl whose motion in her ocean kept flowing my way.

90210's JESSICA STROUP STAYS AHEAD OF HER FASHION CLASS

Editors sit front row at the Charlotte Ronson fashion show (do you know who's who)

Happy Tuesday NeverWood High-ers!!!

We have been having the time our lives in New York City for fashion week and the VMA's.  It sometimes becomes hard to do our homework and still attend class.  

BUT...

Always fashionably late, while always posing just on time.

It's been non-stop from fashion show to fashion show, dinner party to party and then you cant forget the after party.  We would like to give a special thanks to Sweet Spot who has touched the hearts (and well sweet spots) of so many of our favorite It Girls.  Sweet Spot really gave NeverWood High a leg up during this fashion week.  Here are some photos we have taken out and about town.  

Don't think the fun stops here keep checking back for more photos to come and check out all the Sweet Spots we visited while in the BIG apple.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK RONSON

Mark Ronson guest DJ's at East Village Radio in New York City

NeverWood High would like to wish Mark Ronson a very special birthday today.  The British music producer is an artist and co-founder of Allido Records.  Mark's first album titled Here Comes the Fuzz, was released in 2003.  The album featured artist Mos Def, Jack White, Sean Paul, Nikka Costa, Nappy Roots, Rivers Cuomo, Nate Dogg, Ghostface Killah and Trife Da God.

He has since produced multiple songs on the albums of singers Lamy, Macy Gray, Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen, and Robbie Williams.  

Soon after Mark released a cover of The Smiths' track "Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before" under the title "Stop Me" featuring Daniel Merriweather.  Focusing on his production with Danielle Merriweather's debut album and recording again with Amy Winehouse and Robbie Williams.

This boy wonder then went on to win three Grammys for Producer of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album and Record of the Year (which he shared with Amy Winehouse).

 Have the best day ever Mark and keep making that fun and amazing music.  

Who thinks Mark should produce NeverWood High's alma mater victory song???
