Room 94's Project X Party Music Video

So my friend who shall not be named invited me down to London for a 'Project X style' music video shoot. It was for the band Room 94, after a quick google search I decided they seemed alright and thought why not. I could not be more wrong in my decision.

If you have seen the movie 'Project X' you will know that things get pretty wild at their party. You only have to view the trailer to know this is a bad ass party you could only go to in your dreams. I even met with one of the guys from Project X before and he was so chilled out, I was really disappointed. So since this party was titled 'a project X style party' I thought all my dreams had come true!

The band's PR company advertised on Twitter 'Weird & wonderful needed for @ROOM94 video shoot this weekend! So jugglers, fire breathers, lap dancers, lions and tigers etc get in touch'. I started to get really overly excited for this party when I saw the bit about tigers, I thought we were going to be living out some Hangover style fantasy.When we arrived in quiet, boring Enfield and we couldn't find the house, I started to think maybe the party had been cancelled. Now a party on the scale of Project X, I'm sure you should be able to hear it from the station. With not a Tesco in sight, we were completely sober and in need of some dutch courage. If the party was as wild as they made it sound I was pretty nervous about entering.

So we got a taxi to the nearest off licence where I accidentally picked up 5% wine. We drank it out on the streets like teenagers then approached the house, the house was pretty huge! Big enough for a Project X party. All the houses in that area were pretty huge actually, but it felt more Made in Chelsea than Project X. As we got nearer, I could hear 'Milkshake' by Kelis. I already started to panic that this party was awful when I heard that dreaded beat. When we walked in, it was awkward silence.

We got upstairs, into a kind of sad looking room with flashing lights, blow up toys and a few teenagers 'drunk' from probably WKD and lollipops. To me the scene was like an episode of Skins where if in that episode, everyone took sleeping pills instead of ecstasy.

The party was as extinct as that dinosaur.

I decided to introduce myself to the band, rude is not the word I am looking for. They have about 100 fans and they are already acting like they are One Direction. After trying to say one line to the band's lead singer, he complained he was too drunk to speak to me and a girl that seemed to be his girlfriend came flying over, as if I was going to steal him like some kind of Caroline Flack.

As the night progressed, I decided maybe we weren't drunk enough. So we took to the bar where we found out we had to pay for drinks. This band invited us down to this house, for a project X party and we had to PAY for drinks. I complained loudly however, and got a free shot. It still wasn't enough to keep me alive. Soon enough I was slumped in the corner charging my phone, SnapChat was even more interesting. In fact, I accidentally sent myself a Snap about how boring the party was.

We had been told we could stay in the house all night which was a relief since we booked no where to stay. However... *SHOCK HORROR* a few hours later, somebody had broken a PLANT POT and we got kicked out of the house. One guy was even sick on the floor! How Project X of him. So we all got kicked out on the streets and sent to another house. This saw the home owner and band picking on us all, telling us we couldn't even sit down, we simply had to go to the other house because of this plant pot drama. So we went to the other house and it was a lot like an airport departure lounge, a lot of sad miserable looking people waiting to go home. I was cold and my bum was outrageously sore from sitting on the floor. It was soon time for us to catch the first train home and on reflection, I realized the National Express journey was more turnt up than the actual party.

The bands PR company are now trying to make the party sound insanely good on Twitter to promote their up coming video. The video might look amazing, who knows? but whatever happens, know that it is all smoke and mirrors. From what I heard a few fans got lucky with the band on the trampoline outside though, very classy ladies. The moral of the story is Project X parties aren't worth the hassle... I would have probably had a wilder time drinking hot chocolate, wrapped up slanket whilst watching it on DVD.

Weird right? but who cares if it's weird, Kellan is hot! I couldn't be more excited for this film.

HOTW: HOTTIES OF THE WEEK

Michael Cera

21 year old Michael Cera is by far one of the hottest stars in Hollywood right now, okay he might not be your average Brad Pitt but he's definetly got something! He's cute, charming, funny and the list goes on. You'll recognise him because of course he starred in the outrageous comedy classic 'Superbad' alongside co-stars Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and the almost ledgendary actor and writer Seth Rogen. Right now though you can catch him portraying the character of 'Oh' with Jack Black who plays 'Zed' in this summer's comedy must see 'Year One' he might have been pulled down numerous times in the press for each of his performances mirroring one another... but hey! it's not his fault he's already been typecast, he's good at what he does and at least he's getting work. I'm sure as hell not bored of Michael Cera just yet and I know I'm not the only one, he's sure to have plenty more tricks up his sleeve but I guess we'll have to wait and see! he has several up and coming projects such as 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World', 'Youth in Revolt' and the 'Arrested Development' movie which I'm sure fans of the show will be very excited to see! I must admit I haven't checked out that show yet, I must buy a season on DVD because I do feel like I've kinda missed the boat here.

Jenny Wade


I mentioned this actress in my last post as of course she's Nina from 'Reaper'. 'Feast' fans will also recognise her from the now trilogy where she portrays the character of Honey Pie. Jenny Wade is so gorgeous she makes my skin crawl with envy, when I first seen her in 'Reaper' she had this presence on screen that I can't describe! as soon as I seen her I knew she had IT I don't know exactly what IT is but I guess you can say I think she's going to go very far. She's set to appear in 'The Strip' coming this year and 'Brothers' which F.Y.I has an array of stars within the cast such as Jake Gyllenhaal, Toby 'Spiderman' Maguire and Natalie Portman.

Oh my Reaper

Being in the United Kingdom we have only just been hooked up with 'Reaper' season two which I'm sure everyone in the know is excited about and so they should be, I can tell you it is just as fabulous as the first series... only better! Reaper has got to be one of the most awesome TV shows on right now. If you're not familiar with Reaper then think 'Supernatural' but funnier, it's more down to earth than 'Supernatural' and it might not have two insanely hot leading males but it does have a cast full of genuinely talented actors and I must say Bret Harrison is quite easy on the eyes but before I go off subject and start rambling about how cute Bret is I'll cut a long story short; Bret plays a guy called Sam who's soul was sold to Satan by his own dad in order for his dad to gain eternal life... so now Sam is working for Satan (Ray Wise) by capturing escaped souls with the help of his buddies Sock (Tyler Labine) and Ben (Rick Gonzalez) who seemingly enjoy helping Sam on his journey, if only Sam's girlfriend Andi (Missy Peregrym) was as understanding though, during season two things become even more complicated for Sam and Andi just can't handle it anymore.

I know what you're thinking! capturing souls? it sounds so similar to 'Supernatural' it almost sounds like a cheap rip off but it's far from it, in fact I think I might even prefere Reaper. Especially with the introduction of new chartacters in season two such as Ben's new (and hungry) demon girlfriend Nina! but I guess you'll just have to tune into season two to find out more about the new characters though because if I say anymore I know I'll end up spoiling the whole thing.

There is some sad news though... Jenny Wade who plays Nina just reported to me via her My Space page that there will not be a third season, I found this hard to believe before now as I'd heard alot of rumours prior to the confirmation but I'm sure there's a petition somewhere so I'll be sure to sign it about 10,000 times under new names. It actually saddens me because 'Reaper' is a gem of a show going un noticed and being neglected by so many potential fans, you'd be a fool not to jump on the 'Reaper' wagon before it's too late!!!
