Exclusive Eva Longoria Brings Us “Out of the Blue for Fall 2012

Posted on February 25, 2013 by Elite Socialistas

The lovely Eva Longoria — not only JUST directed, but starred in latest her short film…Out of the Blue which is part of Canon’s “Project Imaginat10n” – a user generated photo contest. It s helmed by Ron Howard where celebrity directors, including Eva, Jamie Foxx, Biz Stone (Twitter co-founder), Georgina Chapman (designer and co-founder of Marchesa) and James Murphy (founder of LCD Soundsystem) are directing short films inspired by consumer photos. Yes, lovelies — that means photos by YOU!

Out of the Blue is a story of a tough, sexy and oh so CHIC woman, fighting her way through a series of uniquely physical challenges — all to stop a mad man. The protagonist’s mission takes a surprising turn (and I have to admit — turns are what makes/breaks a plot) which is guaranteed to leave us wondering if it was all just a game! Amaurey Nolasco (Prison Break) co-stars. This film is set to premiere at Canon’s “Project Imaginat10n” Film Festival in Fall 2013. So you are getting the CHIC first peek — right here on Elite Socialistas :-*.

Good morning lovelies.

I know it’s been a while since you last heard from you favorite diva — here at Elite Socialistas! We have officially relaunched the site — and in doing so, experienced some rather pesky technical difficulties (like upgrading a plugin — which loaded a nasty malware to the site, causing Google to blacklist us…but we eradicated the issue) — and now we’re back in full effect, and at your FAB service! Stay in the loop — as Elite Socialistas will be featuring some juicy celebrity fashion spotlight and gossip — for your entertainment pleasure!

Gossip Starts Here >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Divas, I just got word, that celebrity hairstylist — Terrence Davidson…has officially quit Nicki Minaj. Davidson has been Minaj’s hairstylist for three years. He served as her hairstylist, wig creator and creative director. Over their three year working relationship — Davidson was able to build his unwavering reputation — as one of the best celeb hair gurus in the industry. He in fact create the look and brand — that is Nicki Minaj — helping her to rise to the top of pop stardom. Due to creative differences, Davidson decided to pursue other opps — focusing on his own creativity and brand. Nicki will continue to rock his work throughout the remainder of February 2012 — during American Idol Tapings!

“I would like to inform the media and supporters that I’ve decided to step away as hair stylist and wig creator for Nicki Minaj. It has been an amazing experience offering me a chance to express my creativity and exhibit my love for the art form of wig design. I have decided to part ways from Nicki Minaj because I would like to explore other opportunities within my own brand and reenergize my creativity through work in fashion editorial, beauty consultations, media personality, ‘how-to’ lectures and hair show development. I am very proud of the body of work built with Nicki Minaj and I appreciate the support over the years from fans who’ve expressed love for my craft. Look forward to seeing me larger than life in 2013” –Terrence Davidson.
