Well this newly formed branch of Queenie V is available to you via friend request. So just log onto www.myspace.com/queenievalentine and request us (i think asking you 45 people who visit daily to comment is a little TOO extreme lol). On the new myspace I (kimmie e) will be posting videos (my new favorite thing) as well as blogs about our daily life, shit we do together, shit we do separate, interesting shit, entertainment ish--ya digg? Log on or get lost!

Mary-Kate and Nylon

I've always been a fan of the Olsen twins, ever since they pretended like they were one person on Full House. I had all their videos, watched all their short-lived TV series' and of course have purchased the new issue of Nylon with Mary-Kate Olsen on the cover. Since I tend to get a little obsessed with my research, I'm just going to put a video up now, which explains Mary-Kate's journey through Nylon absurdity. Enjoy!
